Game and Fish moves to new
Cody Regional Office location
CODY - The new Wyoming Game and
Fish Department office in Cody is complete
and open to the public. Construction on the
building finished in October, and Game
and Fish moved operations the next month,
welcoming the public to the location at 2
Tilden Trail.
" We're glad to open our doors to the
community and invite hunters, anglers and
wildlife enthusiasts to visit the new Cody
Regional Office, " said Brian Nesvik, Game
and Fish director. " This is more than a building
- it's a commitment to the community and
to conservation. By investing in this space,
we are better equipped to manage wildlife,
fish and habitat and offer the best services to
the public. "
The new office was funded by the Wyoming
Game and Fish Commission to ensure the

public had a permanent place to receive
services from Game and Fish. The old building
and land was leased from the county and could
no longer provide adequate workspace to meet
the growing needs of the region and the people
and wildlife within it.
" I am excited about the new Cody Regional
Office, " said Game and Fish Commissioner
Ralph Brokaw. " The new and expanded space
will allow department personnel to better
serve the Cody Region - both people and
wildlife. I am pleased the Commission had
the capacity to build this new workspace, and
I am confident it will serve department staff
and the public well into the foreseeable future. "
The office includes a large, ADA-compliant
meeting room, aquatic invasive species check
station, wildlife check-in area, more parking
space for hunters and boaters pulling trailers
and provides more space at the front counter to
accommodate customers, among other benefits
to the public.
" We're grateful to be able to build this office
in Cody. This was funded by sportspeople
- and we're looking forward to serving the
public and helping them enjoy Wyoming's
outdoors, " said Dan Smith, Cody Region
wildlife supervisor. " Compared to our old
location, this one is easier to get to with safer
access for people needing to buy a license, get
a chronic wasting disease sample taken or get
their boat inspected. "
The new facility remained within budget,
costing $9.6 million. The Commission planned
for and reserved money for this project prior
to construction. No State of Wyoming general
funds were utilized and no debt was incurred.
