Tackling the challenges with beer sales at Whiteclay: Group of local leaders holds its first meeting

LINCOLN — A committee appointed by Gov. Pete Ricketts to explore problems associated with beer sales in the unincorporated village of Whiteclay, Nebraska, held its first meeting last week.

Ricketts, who was traveling in northwest Nebraska, attended the Feb. 1 meeting.

Taylor Gage, the governor’s spokesman, said previous attempts to address challenges at Whiteclay were led by outsiders, but the new committee is made up of local leaders whom the governor encouraged to “work together on local solutions.”
