The Village of Denton Board of Trustees on March 2 approved Ordinance 26-3-1, adopting the Nebraska Basic Code of Ordinances (2025). Trustee Doug Rosekrans moved to introduce the ordinance and Trustee Amanda Fangmeier seconded; the board then voted unanimously to waive the state statutory requirement for three readings and approved the main motion.
The ordinance is a comprehensive codification and repeal of prior local ordinances intended to bring the village code into alignment with the Nebraska Basic Code of Ordinances, 2025. Board members approved the first reading, the introduction, and the waiver of the usual three-reading process in the same meeting. Chair Joe Hobelman presided over the unanimous vote.
Trustees and village staff did not record further debate on specific code sections during the meeting; the board approved the measure following the recommended motions. The action was recorded as Ordinance 26-3-1 in the meeting minutes and is now part of the village ordinance record. The board also continued other items on the agenda, including separate discussions on water and sewer rates that were tabled until April.
