Two families trying to develop businesses will come before the Dodge County Board of Supervisors on Wednesday.
Daniel and Laurie Wobken of rural Hooper are seeking a conditional use permit to operate a commercial kennel and facilities. Woody and Marianne Slama of rural Scribner are seeking a conditional use permit for a bed and breakfast.
Both conditional use permit requests will have public hearings when the Board of Supervisors meets beginning at 9 a.m. Wednesday on the third floor of the Dodge County Courthouse.
The meeting -- along with the hearings on the conditional use permits -- is open to the public.
Hearings for the Wobkens and Slamas are scheduled for 9:30 a.m. and 9:45 a.m., respectively.
The Wobkens live on a 12-acre lot at 2277 County Road F near Hooper and the proposed kennel site is mostly surrounded by agricultural fields.
The Slamas live on a
5-acre lot at 385 County Road 16 near Scribner. Information from their application for a conditional use permit showed no additional buildings would be constructed for the bed and breakfast, which would accommodate up to four people.
One other business has a request before the board on Wednesday.
Timothy Marsh, co-owner of Uncle Larry’s at 2200 Proctor Road, is requesting a change in his liquor license application. The change would add the second-floor offices onto the license and removed a proposed sidewalk cafe.
In a letter to the Nebraska Liquor Control Commission, Marsh said he decided to add the second-floor offices after meeting with representatives of the Nebraska State Patrol.
Marsh and his wife have been working to open the sports bar for several months.
