The Nemaha County Board of Equalization approved a long list of partial and full real-property tax exemptions during a public hearing, granting relief to veterans posts, churches, arts groups and local nonprofits after unanimous roll-call votes.

At a Feb. 8, 2011 public hearing the Nemaha County Board of Equalization approved a series of exemption applications under Form 451 for real and personal property. Chairman Dennis Wittmann and Commissioners Bob Hutton and Marvin Bohling voted unanimously to grant partial exemptions to organizations including American Legion Post #23 and Auburn Eagles Aerie #3767 and full exemptions to groups including the Berean Fundamental Church of Auburn, Flatwater Art Foundation/Folk Art Museum and Nemaha County Hospital.

The minutes record repeated motions “by Bohling, seconded by Hutton” and unanimous roll-call votes. County Assessor Jana Smith and County Clerk Joyce Oakley were present during the hearing. The approvals were routine and applied to dozens of qualifying organizations listed on the agenda; the board moved to close the hearing at 12:10 p.m. and immediately approved associated tax-list corrections where applicable.
