Forest Service looks to public land, local tax dollars to house its workers - WyoFile

Proponents see Bridger-Teton National Forest project as a novel approach to keep vital forest workers close to the lands they manage. Critics see a “slippery slope.”

Several sites around the Snowies that the FS already has cabins on could be great housing if families want to live pretty remote.
Work stations too for that matter.
They already have private leases for cabins why not build housing for workers?

My sister spent years in USFS housing in Alaska and Idaho. Seasonal and field personnel should have housing close to the SO or their reporting point. My only question is who will be in this housing.

If they are going to say that a GS-14/GS-15 or SES Forest Supervisor can't afford a house, I will throw the BS flag.
