County tourism board backs $70,000 for Friends of Bridger-Teton

The Jackson Hole Travel and Tourism Board approved $336,600 in strategic partnership awards, including $70,000 for Friends of Bridger-Teton and $50,000 for Jackson Hole Nordic Alliance. The funding also included support for groups such as KHOL, Wyoming PBS, Jackson Hole Public Art, Camina Conmigo, and Velo22, after applicants gave brief presentations and answered board questions about how their projects fit the board's goals.

For housing readers, the only direct nod was a public comment from Mr. Julian Haas on the Teton County Carshare Study, which he said could help residents and temporary workers. But the actual vote stayed focused on tourism and community partnership grants, not new housing supply, deed restrictions, or eligibility changes.
