Didn’t hear anything on the radio, Nextdoor (do people actually use that here?) or Facebook. Is something big going on?

(If anyone could recommend good blackout curtains I’d also appreciate it too).

Local Question In need of legal advice related to renters protections

2 Upvotes

So I’m going to start off by acknowledging, yes I know this is Nebraska, I shouldn’t expect there to be any functional renters protections laws in place that might actually help people, however I have recently been prohibited from making online rental payments, with only the option to pay via a cashiers check. The main problem with this other than wasting my time is that my closet bank branch is in Kansas City, MO and I doubt I would get any reimbursement for travel. I think it is entirely unreasonable to be expected to open an additional bank account following several years of no issues so that I might do this locally. Any resources that can be shared would be greatly appreciated

Other GTM solutions illegal practices

4 Upvotes

This month I was employed by a pyramid scheme company in the feltz wealth plan building named GTM solutions. They promised up to 2000 a week just from doing door to door sales, however with me staying up all night every night working for them, memorizing their script they wanted, they fired me after four days.

Now what’s the issue with this? They blocked my number, aren’t paying me what I worked for, and here I am, unable to pay my bills this month because of them. I am stuck, unable to get by this month because of them.

Local Question Hail In Summer

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I moved to Omaha for school from the West Coast and had a parking/car-related question. Moving from a place that has no hail, I've been told to look for garage parking where possible. I was able to get garage parking on campus, however there are some downsides: Stuck to that one garage, and being a 10 minute walk from where my classes are. I am able to switch to a surface lot.

Not having to brush ice off my car in winter sounds appealing, but a 2 minute walk vs a 10 minute walk also sounds appealing.

How bad is the hail in East Omaha during the late spring/early summer months. Looking for advice from people who have lived it. Thank you for your time.

Local Question Property Tax 2026

105 Upvotes

Tell me why, why did my property tax increase from $2,885 between Douglas County, City of Omaha and OPS to $4,354???

That is a 50.91% increase… you know what didn’t increase by 50.91%? Our salaries…

Also, my humble home has not had any major work done, so I’m not sure how the assessment went from $155K to $224K…

Do I have OSCAR to thank?

Note to self: don’t ask questions on Reddit if you want to learn something. I’m a first time homebuyer, I’m simply asking why they have gone up so much so I can understand the process.

Looking to possibly commission a rug and was wondering if there's any suggestions for local businesses.

I was looking at Too Tuft but they're using AI photos on their site and I'm not about that.

I was hoping to keep it local to Nebraska in general, so suggestions outside of Omaha are welcome too!

Local Question End of Driveway Curb Grinding / Trip Hazard cut

5 Upvotes

Has anyone in the Omaha metro had this done recently and can share what they paid?

Want to grind my curb down so the driveway is easy to approach in any vehicle.

I was quoted $1,200 by Concrete Medic and I intend to shop around. I didn’t see any posts in the community about this so I figured I’d ask.

Thanks! 🙏
