Rock County to co‑apply with UNL for CWDG 'Stop the Burn' wildfire grant; Hollenbeck named liaison
Summary
Emergency Management staff said UNL will be the applicant and Rock County the co‑applicant on a CWDG 'Stop the Burn' grant; commissioners authorized staff to proceed and appointed Wade Hollenbeck as county liaison.
Traci Booth and Jessica Pozehl of Emergency Management told commissioners that the University of Nebraska–Lincoln will serve as the grant applicant for the CWDG 'Stop the Burn' program and that Rock County will be a co‑applicant with Sandy Benson assisting on the application.
Commissioner Faye Smith moved to authorize Traci Booth to move forward with the application; Colby Sybrant seconded the motion and the board voted unanimously to proceed. The board subsequently approved a separate motion appointing Wade D. Hollenbeck as the county liaison between Emergency Management and the county for the grant effort.
The minutes record no additional budget commitment at the time of authorization; staff will continue grant work with the listed partners and report back as the application advances.
