AARP Wyoming is encouraging residents and community supporters to speak up for the plan's vision of a more livable, age-friendly city. The proposed plan includes strategies designed to help people of all ages and abilities thrive in Laramie, whether they are raising families, building careers, or choosing to age in place.

A Vision for a Stronger Future

The Forge Laramie Comprehensive Plan reflects years of community input and addresses many of the priorities residents have identified as critical to the city's future. The plan supports:

• More housing choices and affordability options
• Opportunities for residents to age in place safely and independently
• Safer streets, sidewalks, and pedestrian connections
• Improved transportation choices
• Walkable neighborhoods that connect people to services and amenities
• Accessible community design for people of all ages and abilities

These recommendations can help create a community where residents have greater freedom, mobility, and opportunities to stay connected.

Your Voice Matters

Community support is critical as city leaders consider adopting the plan. Public input can help demonstrate that residents value investments that make Laramie more inclusive, accessible, and prepared for future growth.

AARP Wyoming has submitted recommendations supporting the comprehensive plan and is asking residents to join this effort by sharing their support before the public comment period closes.

As Laramie continues to grow and evolve, decisions made today will influence housing availability, transportation choices, neighborhood design, and quality of life for years to come.
