GRETNA, Neb. — The Gretna City Council on June 2 approved a series of land‑use ordinances that expand the city's boundaries and revise zoning in portions of Sarpy County.
Jeff Miller read Ordinance 2201 by title, which annexes Tax Lot 5D (described as the southeast one‑quarter of the southeast one‑quarter of Section 2, Township 13 North, Range 10 East) and adjacent rights‑of‑way into the city. On a motion by Lauren Liebentritt and a second by Jeremy Westengaard, the council approved the ordinance on second reading. The vote was 4‑0 (Kara Alexander, Lauren Liebentritt, Bill Proctor and Jeremy Westengaard voting yea).
The council also approved Ordinance 2204 on second reading to rezone tax lots 5A1B and 5D from R‑2 (medium‑density residential) to MUC (mixed‑use commercial and business park). Jeff Miller read the ordinance by title and the motion carried unanimously.
Ordinance 2205, which amends the official zoning map for the Linoma Industrial Subdivision (Lots 1–16 and Outlots A–C) to include RE (Residential Estates) and I‑1 (Light Industrial) zoning, was likewise read by Miller and approved on second reading by a unanimous vote.
The council introduced Ordinance 2207 on first reading to amend section 11‑102 of the Gretna Municipal Code and adjust the boundaries of the Good Life District program area; the council voted 4‑0 to approve the introduction and first reading.
