Property Tax Exemptions

There are two different Property Tax Exemptions for 2026 Property Taxes.

If you qualified for the Long-Term Homeowners Tax Exemption for 2025 taxes, then you got an affidavit in your property tax bill you just received.

You must fill out and submit this affidavit to the County Assessor's office to receive this exemption for your 2026 property taxes.

If you did not qualify for the long-term homeowner tax exemption, then you should apply for the 2026 Homeowner Property Tax Exemption, which will reduce the fair market value of your property by 25% (off the first $1 million), and reduce your property taxes.​​​

Wyoming Hunger Initiative honors local volunteers who work in the space of food insecurity

First Lady Jennie Gordon’s Wyoming Hunger Initiative in partnership with the Hughes Charitable Foundation hosted its sixth and final regional summit in Northern Wyoming recently to bring folks together who are working in the space of food insecurity and to honor volunteers.

The Wyoming Hunger Initiative was launched in 2019 with two tenants in mind: one, to never reinvent the wheel and two, to be in all twenty-three Wyoming counties.  There are grassroots efforts in every Wyoming County dedicated to reducing hunger and combating food insecurity.

“Through the relationships that have been developed across the state specific to food insecurity, Wyoming Hunger Initiative has identified partners in every community which has resulted in opportunities to network, share resources, and collaborate” says First Lady Jennie Gordon. “Ultimately, this summit will lead northern Wyoming forward together while also producing realistic action items that are already underway.”

The event kicked off with a volunteer recognition celebration where anti-hunger organizations in northern Wyoming nominated a volunteer from their organization to be recognized.  Without the countless volunteers across the county, this work would not be possible.

Carol Johnston, who has been a committed volunteer for the Powell Senior Center’s home delivery meal program for the past 4 years, was honored at this ceremony. “Carol really has a heart for our community members. She takes the time to talk with each person and considers each one of them as a friend. She lets us know who is in greatest need of food or other services. Carol is always one step ahead of us to offer to take on additional routes throughout the week.” says Linda Dalton, Executive Director of the Powell Senior Center.

The Wyoming Hunger Initiative seeks to find and support Wyoming solutions to the challenge of food insecurity, which affects approximately 86,000 residents statewide. Launched in October 2019, Wyoming Hunger Initiative is the official initiative of Wyoming’s First Lady Jennie Gordon and is governed by the Board of Directors of the Wyoming Governor’s Residence Foundation, a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization.

For more information, please contact Trista Ostrom, Chief of Staff to First Lady Jennie Gordon at Trista.ostrom@wyo.gov (307)274-0365.
