LB981 empowers metropolitan-class cities to regulate housing authorities and revises the Nebraska Housing Agency Act.

LB981 grants cities of the metropolitan class the authority to regulate housing authorities through ordinances. It amends the Nebraska Housing Agency Act to redefine terms and establish a complaint process for residents. The bill mandates housing agencies to inspect units for bed bugs before renting, disclose infestations to tenants, and handle infestation remediation. It also requires agencies to report on complaint resolutions, eviction filings, and pest control activities every six months. The bill repeals existing sections and harmonizes provisions.
