Fremont Tribune reports that eight community projects will benefit from up to $82,773 in keno community betterment matching funds.

The Fremont City Council approved the projects on Tuesday in accordance with new guidelines that were put in place in January.

Keno match requests in the past were considered individually as they were received, but the new guidelines included an April 1 application deadline, and specified 12 local nonprofit organizations eligible to apply. The chosen organizations, “have demonstrated a commitment to assisting the city and the general public in their purposes,” the written guidelines state.
