()KLZA)-- The Falls City Council approved an agreement with Ferris Engineering in an amount of $40 thousand when they met Monday night for the 2025 SCADA & Relay Upgrade Project at the City Power Plant.

Public Works Director Trevor Campbell said that its time the city make technology upgrades to the power plant or scrap the plant. Campbell said the upgrades will provide plant operators with better supervision of the cities electrical infrastructure and plays into the plan to eventually eliminate the night shift and weekend shifts at the power plant.

City Administrator Anthony Nussbaum discussed the need to approve an confidentiality agreement with Evergy Kansas Central Inc. as Falls City continues to explore options for bringing additional electrical power to the community.

The agreement was approved on the recommendation from Campbell and the Board of Public Works.

In addition, a Mutual Non-Disclosure Agreement with ESS Technology Inc. was also approved. The Delaware based company does mainly battery storage services and renewable components for energy products. The City wants to look at the companies service to see if it could be a benefit to Falls City in the future. There is not financial cost to the City.

This agreement was also recommended by the BPW and Public Works Director Campbell.
