(KNZA)--The Nemaha County Commission on Monday unanimously approved a contract with a Nebraska firm to prepare a comprehensive plan for the county.

Commission Chairman Tim Burdiek signed the contract with Marvin Planning Consultants, of David City.

County Attorney Brad Lippert said the contract can be canceled at anytime with a 7-day written notice. The county would be billed only for the work that has done to date.

The firm will prepare the plan for a total cost of $34,600.

Commissioners also approved an additional $2,200 expenditure to print and mail surveys that will go to every county resident. Survey questions will be developed with commissioner input and the results will be used in preparing the plan.

Company owner, Keith Marvin, spoke with commissioners by phone. He said the Commission will need to designate a county liaison to serve as project manager and appoint a steering committee that will conduct the required meetings.

Marvin will join commissioners by phone at next week's meeting to discuss the next steps.
