(KLZA)--Richardson County Commissioners discussed updating the County Comprehensive Plan and proposed zoning regulations when they met July 16th.
Tom Bliss, Executive Director of the Southeast Nebraska Development District informed the Board that the University of Nebraska - Lincoln would offer assistance for the project through students who participate in those types of courses at the University. Bliss said utilizing the UNL program could benefit the County with some cost savings.
Bliss also explained there could be some grant funding available to assist with the updates, although such funding has been reduced in the past year.
Bliss also introduced Brittany McCullough, the SENDD staff person who works with cities and villages within Richardson County.
It was also relayed to the Board that grant funding is possible for the purchase of 1st responder radios and possibly other equipment.
