Nebraska City News-Press
As 2020 came to a close, the Northeast Nemaha County Long Term Recovery Group (LTRG) received positive updates on several infrastructure projects that are key to recovery for the region.
“I am pleased to report a contract was signed between the City of Peru and the Auburn Board of Public Works solidifying the plan to join the City to BPW’s water supply,” said David Pease, mayor of Peru. “This allows the engineering design and planning for construction to move forward.”
The City of Peru has also accepted an offer from FEMA to fund 75 percent of construction costs (no more than $5.2 million) related to building the water connection to Auburn.
