NebraskaBill text defines which hotels count near convention facilities
LB 1192 proposes amending Nebraska’s convention center assistance law; its printed text describes how to count nearby hotels, including a special rule near the State Capitol.
What it does
The printed measure describes an associated hotel as lodging within 600 yards of an eligible facility, with a different mapped area near the State Capitol.
Argument forA distance rule and a mapped-area option near the State Capitol could help applicants identify which hotels count as nearby.
Argument againstThe 600-yard boundary could leave hotels that serve convention visitors outside the category used for the assistance program.
More detail
The printed text describes which hotels count as associated hotels. An associated hotel is a public or private place where people can pay for a room, located wholly or partly within 600 yards of an eligible facility. For an eligible facility near the State Capitol, the applicant selects one or more areas within its boundaries that together match the area’s usual square footage. No start date is stated.
