The City is working to implement a new licensing & permitting platform for individual & company contractors. The new process will be 100% online. It'll allow individuals to apply, renew, & pay for licenses from home and/or work. The platform will streamline the application process, provide updates, and allow individuals to talk directly with staff. More info will be announced at a later date.

Applications will open March 1 for Rooted in Cheyenne’s 2025 spring planting event, and city residents can apply for street trees to be planted on their properties.
All trees approved through the program will be planted on Saturday, May 17.
Homeowners can purchase up to two trees at $50/tree or could be eligible for income-based free trees if income guidelines are met. Free trees are also available to residents in the South Cheyenne Historic District, which is this season’s “free tree area.” Trees must be planted along the street or sidewalk to maximize benefits to the entire neighborhood. To apply, visit www.rootedincheyenne.com/apply.
Early applications are highly suggested as trees are limited. Once applications are submitted, Rooted in Cheyenne will conduct a site visit to confirm the tree(s) are suitable for the location. Approved applicants will then be able to select and purchase their tree(s) from a list of eight tree species hardy to Cheyenne.
Trees through Rooted in Cheyenne are planted by volunteers with oversight from green industry professionals. Members of the community over the age of 12 are encouraged to volunteer for the spring planting event at www.rootedincheyenne.com/events. Breakfast, lunch, and a T-shirt will be provided. Registration prior to the event is required and also opens on March 1.
