COLLIN SPILINEK Fremont Tribune The Dodge County Board of Supervisors approved applications for federal flood mitigation grants during its meeting Wednesday morning. The first, which involves the Rawhide Creek Watershed Plan and Environmental Assessment, would assist with flood prevention operations, Emergency Manager Tom Smith said. “It’s been a work in progress by the Joint Water Management Advisory Board to get this identified and move through,” he said. “It helps us identify future flood mitigation projects and how to better protect our communities along the Platte River.” The application, which would provide the project with $750,000 of funding from the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), was brought forward as an emergency item due to the timeliness of the issue, Chairman Bob Missel said.
