Industrial Contractor at Campstool Business Park
Exit 367 puts over 200 acres of annexed, platted ground directly on I-80, and that makes Campstool Business Park a candidate for truck-based operations that need frontage and fast access. The park lies inside Cheyenne city limits at the Campstool Road interchange, between the College Drive exit at 364 and the US 30 exit at 370. Cheyenne LEADS describes the land as annexed, platted and zoned Community Business.
That last detail matters more than the acreage. Community Business zoning is a commercial category, not a heavy industrial one, so the use list decides what you can build and how. A cross-dock, a service yard, a flex building with some warehouse and a roadside facility may all fit. A plant with a stack, bulk storage or heavy noise may not. We read the zoning before we draw the footprint, and we bring the results to the owner in plain terms: what is allowed, what needs review and what needs a different parcel.
Neighbors include a regional distribution center, a hotel, a fulfillment operation and Cheyenne Business Parkway. The sections below cover the building types that fit this zoning, how we handle the code and entitlement questions and where costs land on a highway-exit site.
What fits a highway-exit parcel
Truck-oriented buildings are the obvious choice. A truck terminal or cross-dock wants long frontage, many doors and a deep, strong apron, and exit 367 provides fast interstate access. Fleet shops, maintenance bays and service yards also fit. They need heavy concrete in the work areas, oil-water separation and room for trailers to turn.
Flex and small-bay industrial buildings are the second fit. A multi-tenant flex light-industrial building with a few grade doors and some office frontage suits contractors, distributors and service firms. Owners who want a roadside business to share the park, such as a fuel stop or a hotel, can tie into the same utilities and access, and we build those support pads and drives to a lighter standard.
Zoning first, then codes
Community Business zoning controls use, height, setbacks and parking. Before we design, we match your operation to the use table and ask the city planning office about any conditional or special review. Entitlements move faster when the use clearly fits, and slower when a hearing is required. Our permitting and entitlements coordination handles those steps in parallel with design.
Building codes come next. Wyoming does not have a single statewide code, and the reviewing office applies its own adopted edition. The state adopted the 2024 International Codes on June 28, 2024, and Laramie County adopted the 2024 International Building Code effective January 1, 2025. In February 2025 the city's Chief Building Official said the 2018 Energy Code would stay in effect. We confirm the current edition for envelope and mechanical design.
A corridor of distribution neighbors
Campstool Road is I-80 exit 367 in Laramie County. Nearby businesses named by the economic development agency include a regional distribution center, a hotel, a fulfillment and catalog operation and the businesses of Cheyenne Business Parkway. That mix shows a corridor where trucks, travelers and workers all pass. Westbound drivers reach the I-25 and I-80 interchange within a few exits, which makes this a natural place for a terminal that serves both interstates.
A cloud operator also expanded into the Business Parkway area south of I-80 near Campstool Road and the Burlington Trail, according to a July 2024 report. For an owner here, that means electrical and fiber infrastructure is moving through the area. Our logistics and distribution work benefits from the same freight path, and our Business Parkway page covers the smaller-parcel option next door.
What changes the number at an exit site
Frontage is the cost lever. Highway-exit parcels often carry higher land costs, so owners try to use the lot fully. We test building coverage, truck court depth and detention size to avoid paying for land they cannot use. Then we price the site civil separately from the shell, since earthwork, paving and storm sewer can exceed the building on a truck-heavy lot.
Paving is the other major line. A truck apron needs thick concrete, a stable base and well-placed joints, because loaded trailers and landing gear punish weak pavement. Our dock aprons and loading zones are designed for the real wheel loads. We show options so you can compare a longer-lasting slab against a lower first cost. Lighting, fencing and security are the last items but not small ones. A truck yard needs good light for night operations, gate controls that handle trailers and cameras where theft is a risk, so we place conduit during the underground phase and avoid cutting new pavement later.
Sequencing a quick-to-market parcel
Exit-side sites usually have a business reason to open fast. We start with a land survey and a geotechnical report, then issue early grading and utility packages while the building drawings finish. That puts the site in shape when the permit lands.
Our pre-engineered metal buildings often suit the schedule, since the frame is fabricated while the foundation is built. Wind is the main limit on erection, so we plan crane days around the forecast. We then close the envelope quickly so interior trades can work out of the weather through the cold season. Slab-on-grade follows the dry-in when frost is a concern, with heat and blankets as needed. For a fleet owner, we sequence the shop first and the yard second so trucks can move in while paving finishes.

Common Questions
What does Community Business zoning allow?
It is a commercial category, and the specific use list is set by the city. Some warehouse, service and flex uses may fit, while heavy industrial uses may not. We read the use table and talk to the planning office before design. If a conditional review is needed, we build that time into the schedule.
How close is the park to the interstate?
The park has direct access to I-80 at the Campstool Road interchange, exit 367. The next exits are 364 toward College Drive and 370 toward US 30. That makes truck movement simple for east and west trips and keeps drivers out of town traffic.
Is the land ready to build on?
The park is annexed, platted and zoned, which removes several early steps. You still need to confirm utilities, soil conditions and drainage for your lot. We handle those checks in preconstruction and report what each will cost.
Can I build a cross-dock here?
Possibly, depending on the zoning use list and the lot size. Cross-docks need many doors, a deep apron and long frontage. We check the lot geometry and the zoning, then lay out doors, trailer parking and drainage to see if the program fits.
Which energy code applies to my building?
In February 2025 the city's Chief Building Official said that the 2018 Energy Code would remain in effect. Codes can change as the city adopts new packages, so we confirm the current edition at permit time. That affects insulation, glazing and mechanical design.
