CHEYENNE -- First-term Laramie County Treasurer Trudy Eisele plans to run for re-election.<br /><br />She worked in the treasurer’s office in the late 1990s, processing property tax payments.<br /><br />Eisele moved on to supervise a pharmacy, but she decided to come back to the county when former treasurer Kim Lovett retired.<br /><br />“When the last treasurer decided to retire, we talked, and I thought the job sounded very interesting and very exciting,” she said.<br /><br />Eisele said her supervisory experience, along with her time spent working in the treasurer’s office, made her the perfect fit for the job.<br /><br />The county treasurer has several responsibilities.<br /><br />“All the monies that go into Laramie County come through this office,” Eisele said. “We are the keeper of the funds.”<br /><br />The office is also responsible for processing property taxes, vehicle sales taxes and vehicle registration fees.<br /><br />In her first term, Eisele said she oversaw the implementation of a new online payment system for property and vehicle taxes.<br /><br />“That was a real challenge, getting the system up and running,” she said. “My staff has been through a couple of these system changes over the years, and they were just awesome.”<br /><br />She also said she has made it a priority to streamline communications between her office and other county departments.<br /><br />“We are working on some things in the future that will allow our computer systems to talk a little bit more between the offices,” Eisele said.<br /><br />Other than a few minor internal changes, county residents shouldn’t expect any major changes to her office if she is re-elected, Eisele said.<br /><br />“I run a pretty tight ship, so it will be business as usual,” she said. “I don’t want to upset the apple cart.<br /><br />“I have had a lot of people call and say I’m doing a great job. I really hope I am. I’m going to do my best to keep up the good work.”<br /><br />No one has announced their intent to challenge Eisele in this year’s election. Candidates must file for office between May 15 and May 30. The primary is scheduled for Aug. 19. The general election is Nov. 4.
