(KMZA)--Nemaha County Commissioners are continuing discussions about a proposed new EMS building in Seneca.

At their April 6th meeting, commissioners reached out to Seneca City Administrator Steve Brooks over concerns the current design may violate a city ordinance. Brooks confirmed the proposal does not meet existing requirements and said that information had previously been shared with former County Administrator Mike Miller.

Brooks noted that if the county proceeds with the current design, it will need to seek either a variance or an exemption through the Seneca Planning Commission.

Local contractors were also present at the meeting, offering input on the project specifications. Commissioners have asked them to take a closer look at the plans and return with recommendations aimed at improving the design and avoiding costly changes later.

Nemaha County EMS is currently located alongside the Seneca Fire Department at 601 Main Street. Commissioners are now considering building a new facility next to the county’s Pioneer building.
