- Nebraska is one of just 10 states selected for a federal grant aimed at keeping families together before crises hit. The Title IV-E Prevention Accelerator Grant will help the state's Health and Human Services Department expand Motivational Interviewing — a proven counseling approach — training more providers and building stronger referral networks statewide. State officials say the goal is prevention, not just crisis response — supporting families early, prioritizing kinship placements when children can't stay home, and speeding up permanent solutions. The grant builds on Nebraska's "Right Home, Right Time" framework and pairs with another recent federal award for predictive analytics in child welfare decisions.

- The Mitchell City Council is moving quickly following the criminal conviction of Mayor Paul Murrell. Council members voted during last week's budget meeting to remove Murrell's name from all municipal bank accounts. Under Nebraska law, Murrell's conviction triggers an automatic removal from office for violating his public oath. That conviction stems from a no-contest plea on September 16th to misdemeanor charges of Theft by Taking and Hindering an Audit of Public Accounts. The council will formally declare the mayoral seat vacant at its next meeting on October 6th. That meeting will also begin the process of appointing a replacement, or deciding how the city will handle executive duties for the rest of the term.

- A Scottsbluff recycling company is getting help to expand its operation. Langer Industrial's plan to buy a large shredding machine won a positive recommendation and a vote of approval on a $600,000 economic development loan last week during the Scottsbluff City Council meeting. The machine can shred metal and tires together, then separate them, something the company's current equipment can't do. Owner Pete Langer says it has struggled to keep up with demand, especially for tires, which it collects across Nebraska, South Dakota, Wyoming, Colorado and Kansas. The loan comes with job credits of $2,000 per full-time employee above a base of 20, capped at $30,000 a year. Langer started with about seven workers and now has 20. He projects this new shredder will create seven- and possibly up to ten- additional jobs at their site on the South Beltline Highway.

The Gering City Council Monday night gave 6-0 approval to the document, which City Administrator Pat Heath said was very similar to that with the previous tenant, but has important modifications.
Heath told council members that the annual lease rate is slightly higher, and there would be a $10,000 contribution each year toward facility improvements. “That would be a contribution from the leasee and the leassor. Our intention is to either use that from the rent payment that comes into the city, or we would apply for possibly KENO funds, depending on what the improvement is, or also the possibility to use (Hotel) Occ Tax funds for that,” said Heath. “This would be a three-year agreement; there would be the potential with satisfactory operations, to renew for an additional five years.”

- Creighton University's Rural Mainstreet Index fell back below growth neutral this month, with the regional survey of bank CEOs coming with a reading of 44.7, compared to 50.3 in August.
Economist Ernie Goss says pessimism from higher fuel and fertilizer costs exceeded the optimism stemming from higher grain prices, according to bankers across the 10-state region.
Goss says bankers reported farm and ranchland values have been holding up much better than ag income, with top buyers of properties being existing ag producers.
However, ag equipment sales continued to lag, with that specific portion of the survey remaining below growth neutral for the 37th straight month.
Nebraska's RMI dropped further below growth neutral, down more than 4.5 points to 43.3 for the month, as trade data shows Nebraska's exports of ag goods and livestock were down $90.4 million, or 11.8 percent, for the first seven months of 2026 compared to the same t...

The AMCA breach potentially exposed the personal information of over 27.5 million individuals throughout the United States, including 10.2 million Labcorp patients of which 9,777 are Nebraska residents. The multistate coalition settled with AMCA in 2021 after the company’s bankruptcy petition was dismissed.
While the data breach occurred at AMCA, the data involved was the sensitive data of Labcorp’s patients. While companies can contract with vendors freely and delegate authority, data security is a non-delegable duty. Vendor management remains one of the most challenging areas in cybersecurity, but it is critical that businesses properly vet the...

Interim Gering Superintendent Dr. Kory Knight said the district's levy is unchanged, but rising property valuations mean an additional $314,000 above the lid — funding he says will support continued academic gains. Scottsbluff Superintendent Dr. Andrew Dick pointed to a facilities assessment recommending HVAC and roofing repairs, potentially costing several million dollars over the next three years.
During public comment, Gering resident Larry Gibbs called the districts' framing "disingenuous," questioning rising costs for early childhood programs and busing. Scottsbluff patron Andrew Pittman said his projected school tax bill will jump 78%, calling the timing "horrible" given other rising costs, and said some residents may leave the area over it.
