OMAHA- State Treasurer John Murante opened a west Omaha office nearly four months ago, calling it part of his public “outreach” efforts. But there’s little public about this office.

It’s not listed on the State Treasurer’s website. There has been no press release about it. There’s no signage outside the office building to indicate a state office is inside. There’s not even a mention of the office on the list of tenants by the building’s elevator. The office, which has been open since September, is raising eyebrows among some who watch government spending and transparency. The office costs $58,700 a year, and was leased for 10 years, according to the state’s Department of Administrative Services.
