Public monies-deposits in credit unions.
SF 143 allows Wyoming state funds to be deposited in credit unions that meet specific requirements, directly affecting the state treasurer, government entities managing public money, and qualifying credit unions. The bill amends state law to require credit unions seeking to hold state funds to apply through the board of deposits, provide financial statements, and maintain security like bonds or mortgages. Credit unions must submit annual financial updates and notify the state if facing regulatory action. This change expands where public funds can be held beyond traditional banks, while maintaining oversight through the state’s board of deposits.

MINOR
This bill transitions from a draft Senate file to an enrolled act, finalizing the legislation that allows Wyoming state funds to be deposited in credit unions alongside banks. The enrolled version includes minor formatting adjustments and clarifies the legal authority for the state to sell collateral if a depository defaults, while maintaining the core provisions for designating financial institutions as state depositories.
Scope change
No substantive change in scope; the bill remains applicable to the State of Wyoming and its political subdivisions regarding public fund deposits.
TECHNICAL
Removed draft headers and page markers from the introduced version and replaced them with official enrolled act numbering and session information.
ENFORCEMENT
Added explicit language granting the state authority to sell collateral if a depository defaults, clarifying the state's recourse in default situations.
REQUIREMENT
Consolidated and slightly reorganized the list of amended statutes in Section 1 for clarity, though the substantive statutes remain the same.
