Central Nebraska Veterans' Home to Stay in Kearney
Legislative Bill 935 allows the unicameral, rather than the governor, to review the proposal to move major state facilities (worth $15 million or more).
Yesterday, the Government, Military, and Veterans Affairs Committee advanced a new version LB 935 to the full legislature. This new version will not retroactively apply to the decision made last July by Governor Heineman to move the Central Nebraska Veterans' Home to Kearney. The veterans' home has been in Grand Island for the last 127 years.
