Sheridan County commissioners awarded the bid Tuesday for construction of additional parking at the Sheridan County Airport.
The project, which would add 96 more parking spots at the airport, drew personal endorsement from County Commission Chairman Nick Siddle.
Commissioners voted unanimously to award the bid for the project to Wagner Ranch Services for the low bid of just under $571,000.
Airport Manager John Stopka said Wagner Ranch Services had met all submittal requirements, and there was concurrence from FAA officials in Denver as well as Wyoming’s State Aeronautics Division to award the project to Wagner Ranch.
Stopka said total project cost with engineering is $738,000, and an FAA grant has been awarded that will fund 100 percent of the project. He said neither the state nor the airport will have any expenses in the project.

Stephen Mullins, stamping his pottery, wants to make Sheridan a community clay center.
Stephen Mullins opened his Red Bison Studio with the desire to be a community clay center for Sheridan.
Before COVID-19 forced the shutdown last year, Mullins taught one or two pottery classes a week. He said at the beginning, he had a membership program as well, but rising production led to space and time conflicts between members and production, so he pulled back on membership and continued the classes.

The COVID pandemic ended that. Mullins said he hasn’t done a class since last summer. But, he said, he’d like to get the classes going again in about a month. And in the meantime, he said, Red Bison Studio has been focused on growing the production line along with the e-commerce, wholesale and retail sides of the business.
