One of the most crowded Omaha City Council races so far is for the seat that represents northeast Omaha.
At least seven people are pursuing campaigns to challenge incumbent Councilman Ben Gray to represent District 2, which stretches from Forest Lawn Cemetery into north downtown and includes Florence, Eppley Airfield and Creighton University.
Gray, a Democrat on the officially nonpartisan council, was elected to his seat in 2009 and has twice won reelection. He is one of five sitting council members who are vying for another term.
Ben Gray
Those looking to unseat Gray include military veterans, community organizers and business owners. Among the issues being raised are increased economic development, better educational outcomes for children and criminal justice reform. Some say the city should divest funds from the Omaha Police Department, while others call the cityâs police force a national example.
Omaha suburb drops its mask mandate 10 days after it began
December 16, 2020 GMT
PAPILLION, Neb. (AP) One Omaha suburb dropped its mask mandate 10 days after it took effect after the number of people hospitalized with the coronavirus in the state declined.
Papillion officials linked their mandate to the level of virus hospitalizations when they joined more than a dozen other Nebraska cities in requiring masks.
The Papillion mask rule was eliminated this week because COVID-19 cases accounted for less than 20% of the state’s hospital beds over the past 14 days. That metric is similar to the standard Gov. Pete Ricketts uses to determine whether to tighten or relax social distancing restrictions in the state.
