(Lander, Wyo.) – Tomorrow’s Lander City Council meeting will conclude with a public presentation of current community center plans.

The original community center was destroyed in a June 2012 fire. A steering committee has been working with the architectural firm Plan One Architects to design a replacement.

Tuesday’s presentation will provide an overview of the work so far. On Dec. 18, the council was given some of the information. Read that story here. After the presentation, there will be opportunities for the public to have individual discussions with the architects and steering committee members.

The regular council meeting is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m. tomorrow at Lander City Hall. New councilors Wendell “Dick” Hudson and Dan Hahn, along with returning councilor Cade Maestas, will be sworn in at the start.

Eric Siwik of the Lander Volunteer Fire Department is set to be sworn in as the new Fire Chief.

Other items of business include: a grant application to the Lander District Recreation Board for the Arts and Science Center, an electrical service agreement with Rocky Mountain Power and writing-off several water accounts.
