Nemaha County adopts insurance renewal, budget and subdivision resolutions and approves Extension Board appointments
Summary
The board approved NIRMA county insurance renewal at a 2.66% increase ($176,940), adopted Resolutions 2026-22 and 2026-23 to cover budget overages and a subdivision, and appointed three members to the Extension Board; all actions passed by roll call votes.
The Nemaha County Board of Commissioners on June 17 approved several formal actions affecting county finances and property.
Insurance and budget: The board approved renewal of the county’s buildings/property/vehicle/workers’ compensation insurance with NIRMA for FY 2026–2027 at a 2.66% increase, for a total premium of $176,940.00. The motion was made and seconded and carried by roll call vote of those present.
Resolutions and appointments: The board adopted Resolution 2026-22 to cover FY 2025/2026 budget overages for the Extension Office ($3,560.53), Veterans Service Office ($836.51) and Clerk of District Court ($643.26). The board also adopted Resolution 2026-23 approving a subdivision for Sharon Kluck located in Section 16, T4N R15E. Additionally, the board approved appointments to the Nemaha County Extension Board—David Goertz, Kelly Kennedy and Liz Bergmann—and authorized the county to sign the Subrecipient Certification of Compliance with Foreign National Vetting Requirements for the Nebraska Emergency Management Agency (NE EMA).
Votes and procedure: The minutes record motions and roll call votes for each action (motions typically moved by Commissioner Mellage and seconded by Commissioner Weiss). Where recorded, roll call votes show the two present commissioners voting in favor and Commissioner Hall absent.
Why it matters: The insurance renewal locks in county property and liability coverage for another year and updates the county’s fiscal obligations. The budget overage resolution and appointments finalize fiscal adjustments and citizen representation on the Extension Board.
Next steps: County staff will implement the insurance coverage and complete documentation for the subdivision and appointments as required by county procedures.
