Nebraska bill LB663 prompts Hall County officials to weigh training, permit risks

Chad briefed the board on newly enacted LB663 and what it means for Hall County's planning and zoning work, saying the law will require two hours of training for county officials during their terms and creates a statutory timeframe for conditional-use decisions. "This will go into effect mid July, 90 days after the legislature goes out of session," Chad said, and he cautioned that while the law has no civil penalty its structure could give a party standing to challenge a board's decision if required training was not completed.
