Richardson County Courthouse

(KLZA)-- Richardson County Commissioners continued to discuss proceeding with updating the Comprehensive Plan with Marvin Planning Consultants when they met last week.

The Board received information the previous week from the Southeast Nebraska Development District on programs and assistance they could offer to accomplish the update with some cost savings to the County. A contract with Marvin Planning Consultants will be discussed when the Board meets Wednesday.

Commissioners reviewed correspondence from the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services regarding the entrance and exit from their office in the lower level of the Courthouse.

A letter will be sent to the Department addressing their concerns and approval for the Department to proceed with any corrections they deem necessary at the expense of the State of Nebraska.

Richardson County Historical Society President Leon Wilhelm met the Commissioners to present their annual report and request continued funding for the next fiscal year.

The County has been providing $10,000 annually to the Society. This year the Historical Society requested the Board consider increasing the funding amount to $12,000.

The Board authorized County Attorney Samantha Scheitel to renew the agreement with the BraveBe Child Advocacy Center for the next year at a cost of $1,210 which is the same amount the City of Falls City pays to participate.
