(KLZA)-- The AMES Tru Temper building on the south edge of Falls City has been empty for more than a year now.
During Monday night's Falls City Council meeting EDGE Executive Director Lucas Froeschl told the Council it is a valuable property for the community.
Froeschl said the property could be split into three different properties including the building located on just over five acres.
Froeschl said despite more than 40 years of manufacturing the facility, the bones of the building are in pretty good shape. Cosmetically the building could use some work, but he noted it would be very expensive for a company to have to build a long-span steel building similar to this one.
Froeschl is hoping that EDGE will receive permission to solicit offers for the project from potential prospects in the next few weeks.
