Stay Louped In with the people and projects shaping the future of Columbus, Nebraska! Hosted by Matt Lindberg, Public Communications Manager, and Betsy Eckhardt, Parks and Recreation Director, this podcast gives you a front-row seat to the voices making a difference in our community.

This week, we welcome Jean Van Iperen, City Planning and Economic Development Coordinator for the City of Columbus. Jean serves as the liaison between the City and several key partners, including the Business Improvement District, the Trax Creative District, and the Columbus Art Gallery located in the Community Building. She also highlights business development grants available to local business owners—resources designed to support growth, spark creativity, and keep Columbus thriving.

Tune in and stay Louped In—because building a stronger community takes vision, planning, and collaboration.
