Zoning & Conditions

State law (Neb. Rev.

No Brainard (village) or Butler County STR-specific ordinance, permit, occupancy, or zoning exemption was located on official city or county pages; therefore STRs in Brainard are permitted but subject to applicable state/local health, building, and comparable land-use rules applied to similar properties.
