Change provisions relating to the disposition of property by the University of Nebraska
LB 917 changes how the University of Nebraska can sell property. It removes the requirement that the Board of Regents must get legislative approval to sell land with buildings valued over $1 million, which was previously needed alongside a majority board vote. Now, the Board only needs a majority vote at a public meeting to approve such sales. This directly affects the University of Nebraska's Board of Regents, giving them more autonomy in property decisions. The bill repeals the old rule and updates the statute to reflect this change.
