At the primary election in November of 2012, the voters of Campbell County approved a proposition to establish a lodging tax county-wide. Wyoming Statutes require that a joint Powers Board be established to oversee spending the tax revenues. A Joint Powers Agreement to establish the Lodging Tax Joint Powers Board was prepared and approved by Campbell County, Gillette, and Wright and then formally approved by the Wyoming Attorney General on December 5 of 2008. The Board has seven members, a majority of whom are from the travel and tourism industry. Gillette, Campbell County, and Wright may each choose one member, who does not need to be in the travel and tourism industry. The remaining four members of the board are appointed; two by Gillette and one each from Campbell County and Wright. No Residency Requirements.
The board meets at 3 pm on the 3rd Thursday of each month at the CAM-PLEX in the Energy Hall Conference Room. Beginning in August 2024, meeting location will be moved to the Campbell County Convention & Visitor's Bureau Office, located at 314 S. Gillette Avenue.
