It appears Gunscribe is correct except for the distance(s) involved...


--- Quote ---The governing body of any city of the first class or city of the second class or village may, by majority vote of
 its members, request that the county board formally cede and transfer to the city or village extraterritorial jurisdiction over land outside the area extending (a) two miles from the corporate boundaries of a city of the first class, (b) and one mile from the corporate boundaries of a city of the second class, and (c) to the closest boundaries of the surrounding quarter sections of land from the corporate boundaries of a village.
--- End quote ---


--- Quote ---Upon the effective date of such transfer, the  transferred jurisdiction shall be treated for all purposes as if such land were located within two miles of the corporate boundaries of a city of the first class, one mile of the corporate boundaries of a city of the second class, or between the corporate boundaries of a village and the closest boundaries of the surrounding quarter sections of land.

I was remembering this off the top of my head. I know I have written an article on this in the past but, as I am short for time today, I didn't have time to look real hard for it. It was something I was going to try to do later but wanted to get it out there. Thanks for digging it up Metaldoc.

I have two training classes tomorrow that run from 8:00am till 10:00pm so I am having to get through all of the last minute details today; Classroom set up, catering etc..

Well, at least 74 of Lincoln's finest will be getting new knives.

I guess I was not aware that switchblades are illegal in the entire state of Nebraska, as this article alludes to...... Am I correct in assuming that only the city of Lincoln has an ordinance against switchblades? And they are not illegal in the rest of the state?

I think the Urinal/Star has updated the article and now states that switchblades are illegal in Lincoln

Well in all fairness LPD said they warned the sellers about bringing them to the show... Stubborn old coots probably had his booth paid for already and figured he would chance it. Wonder how much they lost actually bringing them instead of eating the booth fee.
