Nebraska State Senator Eliot Bostar has introduced LB 1255, a bill that would ban any use of eminent domain by public power suppliers in Nebraska, to seize property against landowners’ wishes.
Bold supports LB 1255, and encourages Nebraskans to testify and submit public comments to members of the Judiciary Committee.
The bill presents an opportunity to ban any application of eminent domain by public power providers in our state — like Nebraska Public Power District (NPPD) and Omaha Public Power District (OPPD) — so that landowners who don’t want projects on their property impacting their businesses have the right to say, “No thanks.”
The public hearing for LB 1255 was held on Thursday, Feb. 26, and I testified in support alongside Nebraska landowners at the Capitol.
