LB 1058 Legislature · 109th Legislature (2025-2026)

Provide for an additional grant under the Nebraska Visitors Development Act and state intent relating to funding

This bill amends Nebraska's Visitors Development Act to create a new $150,000 grant program for tourism organizations along the Missouri River within five miles of a first-class city (like Omaha). It directly affects organizations providing tourism promotion services through exhibits or trails in that specific area, requiring them to apply with documentation of their services and a plan for using funds. The grant can cover basic operational support but cannot fund equipment or facility improvements. The bill specifies this funding comes from the General Fund for fiscal year 2026-27 and repeals the previous section governing similar grants.
