(KLZA)-- The Falls City Council approved taking the next step forward to build 33rd Street between Highway 73 and Bill Schock Boulevard, creating an intersection and building a stub street east onto a potential development site of nearly 19.5 acres adjacent to Highway 73.
EDGE Executive Director Lucas Froeschl called the proposal the culmination of an 18-month effort for economic development on the north edge of Falls City.
The Council approved $865-thousand for the project. Of that amount, Community Medical Center has pledged $250-thousand to help build the portion of street from Highway 73, west to Bill Schock Boulevard which would align with the entrance to the hospital.
