The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission’s northwest district office in Alliance will operate out of a new location starting June 16.
The office, currently at 299 Husker Road, will move into the strip mall at 1317 W. Third St. Hours of operation and the office’s phone number will remain the same.
The temporary move allows Game and Parks to build a new service center with a biological laboratory at the Husker Road site. The old building’s infrastructure was significantly failing.
Construction is expected to take a year.
