Tina Conklin 
I have worked in the Weston County Assessor’s office for several years; starting as the deputy assessor in 1994 then as assessor since 2005; have a title insurance background and paralegal course specializing in land records; over 730 hours of continuing education through the International Association of Assessing Officers and the Wyoming Department of Revenue; and permanent certification as a property tax appraiser.
The county assessor and employees of that office must meet mandatory education requirements per Wyoming Department of Revenue rules and regulations.
The Assessor’s office has created an efficient workforce working together as a team. We continue to strive for accuracy in our data. One of our goals is to continue to assist customers in a friendly and courteous manner while they are conducting business in the Assessor’s office.  Another goal is to fully utilize the county’s website by including additional data on the Assessor’s page of that website.
