Shen council demands info on Sac 'N Save project

(Shenandoah) -- At least one Shenandoah City Council member wants answers regarding the status of the proposed Sac 'N Save housing project. Back in June, the council by a 3-2 vote granted a 90-day extension to Kindra and Michael Weston, developers of the property at 301 West Sheridan Avenue. Council members granted the extension, with stipulations that the Westons work with City Attorney Mahlon Sorensen on possible contract ownership, and for the couple and Origin Group officials to present a financial plan to the council following the 90-day period. Council members then tabled a decision on an extension in September. During Tuesday night's regular council meeting, Councilman Richard Jones asked why no update has been given on the project, save for a letter from Kindra Weston which he says lacked specifics. Jones expressed concerns that the project was dragging, and believes the council deserves an update.

Long Before Interstates, Drivers Crossed Nebraska On This Historic Brick Highway You Can Still Walk Today

Roughly three miles of red brick laid by hand in 1920 and 1921 still carry cars across a quiet corner of Nebraska. Nobody roped it off, either. Those same bricks once rumbled under early motorists chasing the Pacific on America’s first coast-to-coast highway. County crews set them over a concrete base, and much of that work is still holding a century later.
