(KLZA)-- Falls City Administrator Anthony Nussbaum reported to Council members Monday night that Utility Superintendent Ray Luhring, who was planning to retire at the end of 2023, has accepted a job as the Auburn Board of Public Works General Manager and has moved his retirement date up to June 14.

The City has hired Trevor Campbell for the Utility Superintendent position but he will not begin working until early August. In the meantime, Nussbaum will work with the Department Supervisors as the Acting Utility Superintendent.

Nussbaum also reported that programs developed to raze dilapidated homes in Falls City and a program providing funds to upgrade sidewalks are both working very well.

More than $45 thousand of the original $100 thousand in funding for demolitions through voluntary agreement with property owners has been utilized.

Approximately $29 thousand of the $50 thousand set aside for a Sidewalk Assistance Program has been utilized so far leaving approximately $21 thousand in the fund.

The Council also approved appointing Olsson +APMA to do the Feasibility Study for the proposed Recreation Center. Two firms submitted proposals to the City. The City received grant funds to pay for the feasibility study.

The study will look at using the former Armory and City Hall building as a site for the proposed rec center.
