(KLZA)-- With grant monies secured to pay for a recreation center feasibility study, the Falls City Council Monday night approved advertising for proposals for such a study for a multi-generational indoor recreation center.
The study will review the former National Guard Armory and City Hall building for the facility. If the building at 18th and Barada is not adequate, a new building could be constructed.
Community leaders have indicated the need for a recreation / wellness center in the community.
In other business, Nussbaum reviewed proposals from the Board of Park Commissioners concerning rental rates for Prichard Auditorium. The Park Board compared rates with similar facilities in other communities and kept in mind rates for school and non-profits wanting to use the auditorium for events.
The new rental fee proposals increased the cost for a full day rental by $50 to $300 per day; a half-day rental from $150 - $200; The fee for a state registered non-profit is proposed at $150 for a half or a full day. Fees for Falls City Public and Sacred Heart Schools for practices and events are proposed at $15 per hour and the fee for team sports, birthday parties was proposed at $15 per hour with a two-hour minimum.
The Council approved the proposals.
