(KMZA)--The Nemaha County Comprehensive Plan has been submitted to county commissioners for adoption.
Planning Commission representatives Lynette Strathman and Bob Ruddick met the county commission July 31 to inform them that the Planning Commission had unanimously voted to approve the plan developed by consultant Dick Horton. That followed public hearings held in Seneca and Sabetha.
The Planning Commission is recommending the county commission engage qualified professional expertise to provide them guidance on how best to honor the 60 percent majority opinion on the surveyed county households opposed to future industrial wind projects.
The Planning Commission is also recommending the county commission develop programs to combat the housing and childcare shortage in the county, along with lack of local sourced broadband access.
County resident Laurie Schmelzle, who was present for the discussion, said the question of zoning was not addressed by the Planning Commission.
County Commission Chairman Dylan Keim responded that the issue would be addressed by commissioners and not by the Planning Commission.
