Interesting. So according to the FTC, they sold the 120th & Q and South 13th Street Casey's, and the Bucky's at 72nd & 370, 60th & Center, and 72nd & Maple to a pair of firms based in Valentine. Western Oil II, LLC and Danco II, LLC. I wonder what brands they operate? https://www.ft...

If a SID in the county has a high debt load, the city will usually wait to annex until those bonds are paid down enough.

The IRS has computers that will eventually flag a balance paid late and automatically kick out a notice calculating penalties and interest. You can usually call or write in and tell them a sob story to get the penalties waived, but interest typically is non-negotiable unless you have proof of a time...

The filing deadline for 2020 individual tax returns was pushed back a month, but if a taxpayer is required to pay estimated taxes for the first quarter of 2021 income, then that money still needs to be sent by April 15th. W-2 earners mostly don't have to mess with estimates. It's your business owner...

144th and Hillsdale was the store that I trained at when I worked at Fantasy's. It was kind of a weird setup with the restaurant bay on the South side. The store they really need to level to the ground and rebuild is 156th and Harrison.

I like paying full price for an online subscription, and being bombarded with ads on every article I read. I have a Sunday paper and 7 day on line. For your online, I assume all the ads are if you view in so it looks like the paper? I use the tradition Omaha.com website version and don't have an is...

I don't know it it would improve fairness much, but I probably would have kept the vote percentages hidden until a winner for that round was declared.

The commentators must just CTRL+F to the comment button, because it's buried under like 100 pictures at the end of every article.

The tantrum that the OWH threw over the Qwest Center had to with them losing out on naming rights.

I don't know at what stage of completion the proposed stores are in now, but they are adding smaller Dollar Fresh locations in Lexington, Nebraska City, West Point, and York. York has been short a third grocery store ever since Bag N' Save left a few years ago. It's just been Wal-Mart and Grand Cent...

A voter ID law, and law to repeal Nebraska's split electoral vote system have made their Groundhog Day appearance.

Remember when someone around here drew a baseball field or something downtown in MS Paint, and the OWH stole the picture and put it on their homepage for a story?

jessep28

It's really sad. The design of the OWH had been top-tier for a long, long time -- but like with most things Lee Enterprises has touched at the paper, they've ruined it to save a buck. Some of the front pages over the last couple of weeks remind me of my high school paper that I was layout editor on...

jessep28

They've also cut about half the journalists and outsourced the paper design to Wisconsin. That's why you'll sometimes see different fonts being used on the same page.

The payment card I have on file with them expired this year. I'll probably just not update my billing info and let my online subscription lapse.

I'm all for supporting local journalism, but the quality of the newspaper has been steadily declining.

Minor nitpick, but the low bidder was West Central Sanitation out of Minnesota.

People who need extra trash bins only have to pay $91/year which is reasonable. Additional recycling bins are $45.50/year.

Some of the inane citizen comments on the Wasteline and mayor's Facebook pages looks like something straight out of a Parks and Recreation episode.

jessep28

No, if the old signage is on the car washes, then I think that Casey's just doesn't want to put any money into them.

3300-5000 is in line with the bigger Tyson plants. Dakota Dunes according to the latest numbers I can find via Google is approximately 7000/day. Greater Omaha Packing website states that they can process 2.400 head a day. Doable, but why would someone build a new facility in the city unless an exist...

I was looking something up about the deal and an old friend appeared in the search results.

The more the competition is consolidated the easier it is for them to charge us what ever they want for gas...so this is not a good thing more then likely. Even though the sale for some 500 million dollars sounds like a great deal of money I wonder if Buckys made a big profit on this sale or not. I...

I don't think that there will be any situations like when they bought Kabredlo's in Lincoln. That chain had an existing store right across the street from another Casey's on 70th and Havelock, and Casey's operated at both locations until early last year.

Anderson has a few BP stations.

Has anyone been inside a remodeled Fantasy's yet? I was wondering what Casey's has been doing with those stores.

The decision makers live out West, and wanted a shorter commute.

Omaha is also pretty close logistically speaking to their two DCs in Kansas City. They might not need to stage as much product in Nebraska.

jessep28

They are making some changes to the newspaper, including a second attempt at getting rid of TV and entertainment guide.

I haven't gone in years since I moved away from Omaha, so it might not be a valid shortcut anymore with development and stuff. You used to be able to take 168th St. South, and that would curve over to Schram Rd. and take you right to the gate. The traffic on 180th and even had to yield to you. It mi...

My season tickets were along the first base line at the corner of the end zone where the cheerleaders did their routine.

I've still got a goodie bag with a license plate holder and stuff somewhere in a box. I just recently wore out my Nighthawks t-shirt a few months ago.

There will be collection points for old trash cans. You can also throw it away with the trash if it will fit in your new 96 gallon trash can. The city is encouraging people to keep and repurpose old green recycle bins, but they may be recycled. See the FAQ section on pages 4 & 6. https://wasteli...

When I established with my current GP, he and his wife were both newish doctors out of medical school at the small town clinic I go to. The clinic absolutely advertised their arrival to death. The clinic even rented a giant billboard with their picture on it. I didn't pick him because of the adverti...

My comment about their socioeconomic status was insensitive and out of line. The two people that the cops want to intervew did retain legal counsel. Yeah, it's unfortunate in terms of finding out what really happened, but it's not a crime to remain silent and not talk to the police. https://www.omah...

Simple: these are rich people from Gretna who can afford lawyers. The people who do know are following their attorney's advice not to say anything to the police.

I went in and grabbed a sandwich for takeout at the Culver's on 27th and Superior in Lincoln on Saturday. It was pretty busy up front, and the patio area was busy. The dining room wasn't too occupied though. I think that most people were trying to eat outside. I have an irrational hatred of drive th...

I consume their news product, so I don't mind paying for it. A small discount for paying in full up front would have been nice. Oh well, I guess I'm insulated from any price increases for the next year.

jessep28

It might be a billing error, but the price for my annual online subscription jumped over 30% from last year. They're charging me full price as if I was paying monthly.

Edit: Customer service got back to me very quickly and confirmed that the price increase was legitimate.

People have been talking about one or more states usurping Iowa for years, but it never happens. I'm all for keeping Iowa as first in the nation to choose the party nominees. At least it gets crooked politicians to pay attention to Iowa for a few days, and many of its residents benefit from all the ...
