Wyoming District Judge Jeffrey Donnell ruled on July 8, 2016 in the case of Wyoming Newspapers v. Sublette County, Docket No. 8383, that public notices published by Sublette County and its Board of Commissioners from October 2015 - July 2016 were not published in accordance with Wyoming Law. Judge Donnell further ruled that the county must pay to the Pinedale Roundup the revenue the newspaper lost because the county commissioners illegally removed The Roundup as its official newspaper and named the local shopper in its stead. The Pinedale Roundup is republishing the Sublette County public notices in this special section in order to inform county residents as to the issues involved within the notices, as well as the overall issue of the proper publication of the notices. The Pinedale Roundup could have just accepted lost revenue and not incurred the cost of republishing the prior notices, but the newspaper felt it was important to fulfill its obligation to fully inform the public. The public notices are republished chronologically beginning in October and ending in early July. The notices related to county planning and zoning issues are together at the end of the section. The county plans to revisit those decisions made in relation to these notices. The county will publish a new legal inviting residents to a hearing where they may comment on these matters and the planning commission and county commissioners will vote anew after receiving the public comment. We use the term “public notices” with a purpose. While the law refers to legal notices or advertising, their purpose to provide notice to the public of important actions and pending actions taken by those who have endeavored to represent the people. They truly are “public notices.”
