Boyd O. Wiggam

I am a fifth generation Laramie County resident and live in Cheyenne with my wife, Iryna Wiggam, and our children. We believe this a great place to raise children and want to do our part to help make this community an even better place to live and work.
I want to use my background and education in economic development, public policy, and law to serve Cheyenne in these challenging times while working expand opportunities for all residents.
In my day job I am an attorney with Olsen Legal Group, LLC. I have previously served on various citizen committees for planning organizations in Cheyenne and Laramie County.
I am running because this community faces immense challenges, but also possesses tremendous potential. I want to do my part to help the City meet this difficult time responsibly and with a focus on our bright future.
We need more job opportunities and housing options for people who want to live and work here. I believe the best way to accomplish that is to concentrate on the City's budget and core competencies like infrastructure and public safety while working to reduce regulations that limit job creation and housing options.
I will also work to make the City more responsive to its residents and to cooperate better with partners throughout the Greater Cheyenne area.
I am a graduate of Burns High School, the University of Wyoming College of Agriculture, and the School of Law at the College of William & Mary. I also studied Economic Development Planning as a graduate student at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
