The City of Yuma, in partnership with its wholesale electric power supplier, the Municipal Energy Agency of Nebraska, is offering four energy efficiency programs with the goal of saving local utility customers money on their electric bill through energy efficiency improvements.

When the City Spotlight began its run in the Pioneer a couple of years ago, one of our goals was to use this space to help keep people informed about what’s happening at the City.

If you live in Yuma, there’s a good chance that sooner or later, you’ll have a good amount of leaves in your yard! We’d like to remind everyone about our current leaf policy, and offer some advice for how to handle the falling leaves in your yard.
