Updating the support group information in Go Local Nebraska
Thanks to the hard work by Kari Stavneak and Rose Fredrick, the 853 support group records held in Go Local Nebraska are getting a thorough updating. First, Kari compares the information held in the database record to what she can locate at the support group's web site. If more information is needed, or a website is not available, Rose or Kari call the support group contact person. Thanks to this painstaking attention to detail, Nebraskans will continue to have a direct connection to health-based support groups through the Go Local Nebraska resource.

Nebraska assessors offices keep track of the ownership changes for properties, keep up-to-date maps of property lines, and maintain property descriptions. A Nebraska property assessor also analyzes trends in property sales prices, the costs of constructing a new property, and the average expense for renting property. She has a number of responsibilities to the county in which they serve.
