Nemaha County to pursue grants for courthouse boiler replacement; board approves $1,629 phone-locker purchase
Summary
The board agreed to begin applying for grants to replace the courthouse boiler and approved purchase of a replacement cell-phone storage locker for the courtroom at a cost of $1,629. Discussion also covered moving State DMV examiners into the old HHS building.
Nemaha County commissioners agreed April 8 to begin pursuing grant funding to replace the courthouse boiler and approved a $1,629 replacement cell-phone storage locker for the courtroom.
The boiler-replacement discussion resulted in direction to start the grant-application process; the minutes do not identify specific grant programs or estimated total project cost. Separately, Mary Mellage, Clerk of District Court, requested replacement of the courtroom cell-phone locker; Commissioner Bryan Mellage moved to approve the $1,629 purchase and Commissioner Mike Hall seconded the motion, which passed unanimously.
The board also discussed potential use of the former Health and Human Services building, including outreach to the State DMV to move examiners to that facility. The minutes record the board’s intent to contact the State DMV but do not record any commitments or timelines.
None of the boiler financing details, replacement timeline, or DMV relocation terms were specified in the minutes; follow-up will be required to identify grant sources and project schedule.
