(KMZA)--The Nemaha County Commission will begin meeting every other week instead of weekly until further notice.
The Commission on Monday approved a resolution making the change due to the coronavirus pandemic.
To help mitigate the spread of COVID-19, the resolution states Commissioners find it is both necessary and appropriate to meet on a bi-weekly basis.
Their next meeting is scheduled for Monday, April 27.
As public access to the courthouse remains limited, all meetings will continue to be broadcast live on the county's Facebook page. After adjournment, the meeting will remain available for viewing on the same page.
In other business, Nemaha County Senior Services/Public Transit Director Diane Yunghans informed commissioners she has been awarded a $7,000 grant that will be used to create a new emergency shelf stable meal program for senior adults in the county.
The program will provide two weeks of nonperishable items with enough food for 14 meals, which is renewable every two weeks.
The program will start next week.
For additional information or to set up delivery, you can call 336-3091.
