DOUGLAS COUNTY, Neb. (KMTV) — This land near 222nd and Center could be turned into over 60 townhomes. And neighbors said they're upset about it. One reason is because just a short distance away is this intersection, which neighbors said is dangerous. They sais the potential townhomes would only make it worse.

GRETNA, Neb. (KMTV) — Brian and Sheri Haberberger started camping a couple years ago as an alternative way to see the country. "It's a stress relief to be able to get outside and see nature and also see cities we normally wouldn't have as a destination," said Brian. They're some of the first people to stay at the new 17-acre expansion. The West Omaha KOA is just off of the interstate past the Gretna exit. It serves the Gretna, Omaha, and Lincoln region.
