Bill Summary
A BILL FOR AN ACT relating to economic development; to amend sections 81-12,110 and 81-12,208, Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska; to provide an application deadline under the Nebraska Innovation Hub Act; to change an application deadline under the Nebraska Rural Projects Act; and to repeal the original sections.
AI Summary
This bill modifies application deadlines for two economic development programs in Nebraska: the Nebraska Innovation Hub Act and the Nebraska Rural Projects Act. Under the Innovation Hub (iHub) Act, the bill extends the application deadline for private nonprofit corporations or inland port authorities to apply for iHub designation from the current deadline to December 31, 2025. For the Nebraska Rural Projects Act, the bill changes the application deadline from June 30, 2023, to December 31, 2025, allowing more time for businesses to apply for matching funds. These changes provide additional opportunities for economic development in Nebraska, particularly in rural and innovative sectors. The bill maintains the existing application requirements for both programs, including submission of detailed plans, budgets, and an application fee of $1,000. The extensions will give more organizations and businesses the chance to participate in these economic development initiatives, potentially supporting job creation, business growth, and innovation across the state.
