Panhandle Area Development District

A council of governments serving the 11-counties of the Nebraska Panhandle to improve regional competitiveness and enhance community vitality.

“One of the most important benefits of being a member of PADD is ACCESS TO EXPERTISE. If a community is looking at writing a grant application, grant administration, planning assistance or even research on possible grant resources, PADD is the first place to call. The staff is knowledgeable of what’s available and what’s required.”

PADD’s staff members have been EXCELLENT RESOURCES FOR OUR COMMUNITY. Their knowledge of state programs and assistance through projects has been priceless. I know we wouldn’t have accomplished many of our community improvement projects without their help.
