About Environmental Health

The Environmental Health division of CLCPH promotes and protects human health and wellbeing, and fosters a safe, healthy environment through assessment, policy development, and assurance.

The well-qualified staff is charged with the surveillance and control of Environmental Health programs that affect our daily lives, such as food, water, sewerage, disease investigations, and all-hazards response and events.

In addition to providing a comprehensive list of services to Cheyenne and Laramie County, the EH division also:

  • Reviews proposed residential and commercial developments submitted to the City of Cheyenne or Laramie County Planning Offices
  • Consults with developers and interested citizens about environmental and health-related impacts of development proposals
  • Testifies at the City or Laramie County Planning Commission meetings, City Council and Board of Commissioner land use hearings about the public health aspects of development proposals

The Environmental Health Division is closed from noon to 1 p.m. daily for lunch.
