January 17, 2019
JANUARY 2019 WEBINAR
Lynn Kohout with the Nebraska Department of Economic Development shared about the DED Funding Programs available to communities. Sara Arnett also presented as a Wood River 2020 Committee Member and Compliance Officer for Heritage Bank about the housing accomplishments in Wood River, Nebraska. Their journey began in 2014 with an OOR Survery; this led to 13 homes improved and 2 demolitions.

The July HomeNE webinar featured Minden’s transformation of a long-vacant historic building into five affordable housing units and a new downtown business. Presenters shared financing strategies, renovation lessons, and the partnerships that helped create new housing opportunities and revitalize the community.
