The Holdrege City Council approved its consent agenda, which included approving the agenda, paying claims as submitted and approving the minutes of the May 19, 2026 regular meeting. The motion was moved by Lola and seconded by nich; the transcript records the motion carried but does not include a roll-call tally.
Cy, the lawyer, told the council that a house on 6th Avenue went to sheriff's sale two weeks earlier and sold for $7,000. "It actually sold for a lot more than we thought it would sell for... $7,000," Cy said, and added that the apparent buyer had not yet received the deed through the courts. Cy said he expected the buyer to begin making improvements once legal transfer is complete.
No members of the public spoke during the allotted public forum, which the presiding official closed before moving into open discussion. A council member reminded parents and drivers that school is out and urged caution because many children are riding scooters and bicycles in the area.
