Denton board adopts Nebraska Basic Code of Ordinances, 2025
Summary
The Village of Denton Board of Trustees unanimously adopted Ordinance 26-3-1 to replace prior local ordinances by adopting the Nebraska Basic Code of Ordinances, 2025, after waiving the statutory three-reading requirement. Trustees voted to make the code effective immediately.
Chair Joe Hobelman presided over a unanimous vote March 2 in which the Village of Denton Board of Trustees approved Ordinance 26-3-1 to adopt the Nebraska Basic Code of Ordinances, 2025.
Trustee Doug Rosekrans moved to approve the ordinance's first reading and introduction; Trustee Amanda Fangmeier seconded. The board then voted unanimously to waive the state statutory requirement for three readings and to adopt the ordinance, which repeals prior local ordinances and sets the updated code as the Village's governing ordinances.
The ordinance text posted with the meeting states that the adoption revises all municipal ordinances to the 2025 code, requires appropriate filings and provides an effective date. The board recorded the passage as unanimous; the motion to approve and the waiver of the multiple-reading requirement were both carried without recorded dissent.
The adoption centralizes and standardizes Denton's municipal code, replacing earlier ordinance versions and aligning the village's ordinance compilation with the published Nebraska Basic Code of Ordinances, 2025. The board's action was moved by Rosekrans and seconded by Fangmeier and took place during the business portion of the March 2 meeting.
