LB 976 Legislature · 109th Legislature (2025-2026)

Change provisions relating to sanitary and improvement districts

This bill changes how boards of trustees are elected in Nebraska's sanitary and improvement districts. It modifies voting rules so that starting four years after the first election, two trustees will be elected only by residents owning property in the district, while three trustees will be elected by all property owners (including non-residents) in the district. The bill also clarifies requirements for candidates representing entities like LLCs or corporations, requiring documentation and specific ballot formatting. These changes directly affect property owners and their designated representatives in districts governed by these laws. The bill amends sections 31-735 and 31-741 of Nebraska law and repeals the original provisions.
