Dear editor:
In reading a recent article on a commission dealing with lewd language in the public venue here in Wyoming. I would suggest that our own Park County Development Standards and Regulations (DSR) definitions be submitted for review. In particular the DSR page II-3, definition number (12). Seems pretty explicit and totally inappropriate for the public verbiage of our county regulations.
Here is the link for you: parkcounty-wy.gov/wp-content/uploads/Documents/Planning%20and%20Zoning/Documents/Regs_Policies/2025%20Park%20County%20DSR%20-%20ADOPTED.pdf.
Neither the Park County commissioners nor the planning and zoning committee seem to care that some of the language written in our “plan” would not be allowed to be spoken in a public meeting for fear of arrest for violating the Wyoming obscenity laws. So that you can see what our state has to say on obscene language you should read their memorandum. It was submitted on April 26, 2025 to the Joint Judiciary Committee from Brian Fuller, deputy legal administrator on the topic of Obscenity and Stalking Laws: wyoleg.gov/InterimCommittee/2025/01-20250519TopicSummary-Judiciary-ObscenityLaws-v2.pdf.
Please will someone explain to me why is it again we are being subjugated to these ‘definitions?’ Is it a recruitment tool? I pray not.
