The Nebraska Department of Economic Development (DED) has awarded $1.37 million from the Nebraska EDA Tourism Grant Program to six subrecipients. The awards cover two project types: Events & Marketing projects and Planning & Technical Assistance projects. Awards in a third category—Infrastructure Projects—will be announced in the coming weeks pending review and approval from the U.S. Economic Development Administration (EDA).
DED received an allocation of $3.074 Million from EDA to support the travel, tourism and outdoor recreation sector, which was disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 public health emergency. LB 1024, enacted by the Nebraska Legislature in 2022, directed DED to accept proposals for subawards located within Qualified Census Tracts in Omaha, Lincoln, and Greater Nebraska communities. From December 22, 2022 to February 2, 2023, DED accepted applications for three project types: Events and Marketing, Planning and Technical Assistance, and Infrastructure Projects.
