Tecumseh holds hearing and votes to pursue CDBG façade rehab funding
Summary
The council held a public hearing on a CDBG application for commercial façade rehabilitation, heard SENDDrepresentative Brittany McCullough, and approved program guidelines, a resolution to authorize the mayor to sign the application, and appointment of the ED Board as the DTR committee.
The City Council of Tecumseh held a public hearing on Sept. 2, 2025, on an application to the Nebraska Department of Economic Development seeking Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds for commercial façade rehabilitation. Brittany McCullough of the Southeast Nebraska Development District (SENDD) reiterated the application terms during the hearing, which opened at 5:02 p.m. and closed at 5:04 p.m.
Following the hearing, the council approved the CDBG Downtown Revitalization (DTR) program guidelines and passed a resolution authorizing Mayor Jesse Grof to sign the application for DTR commercial-rehabilitation funds. The council also appointed the Economic Development Board to serve as the CDBG DTR Committee. Votes recorded on these items were unanimous among present members: Lance Beethe, Brian Britt, Travis Goracke, Tyler Speckmann and Lorie Topp (Alicia Brommer absent).
The public hearing record in the minutes indicates the mayor opened and closed the hearing promptly and that SENDD assisted in presenting application terms. The transcript does not specify the total grant request amount or detailed eligibility criteria in the hearing record; those specifics are expected to appear in the application materials filed with the Nebraska Department of Economic Development.
