Updated on Nov. 4, 2026 in City Hall
The Casper City Council approved annexation and General Industrial zoning for a 0.5-acre parcel at 2583 Bryan-Evansville Road at its Tuesday meeting. The council also approved annexation of a 0.24-acre parcel south of 1620 Blanco Drive, which will be combined into the 1.52-acre Nissen Addition.
Why it matters
Annexation brings the 2583 Bryan-Evansville Road parcel within city limits, shifting its mill levy from 67.900 to 72.900 mills. The parcel seeks connection to municipal water and sewer lines alongside ongoing city roadway improvements.
The 2583 Bryan-Evansville Road parcel's mill levy rises from 67.900 to 72.900 mills upon annexation, and the estimated annual city property tax revenue from the parcel is $266. The property owner, Anything 23, LLC, is responsible for all costs tied to utility line extensions.

Roadmap
Annexing contiguous parcels under Wyoming municipal statutes extends Casper's city limits outward as the parcel adds to the city's tax base. The move follows the state's contiguity framework and aligns with ongoing city roadway improvements that support new utility connections.
Property owners in the annexed areas will see their mill levy rise from 67.900 to 72.900 mills, which increases their city property tax bill. Owners of the 2583 Bryan-Evansville Road parcel will also need to cover utility line extension costs to connect to municipal water and sewer.
The takeaway
Property owners near Casper's city limits should check how annexation affects their mill levy and utility connection responsibilities. Costs for line extensions fall to the owner, so budget for them before connecting.
