(KLZA)-- During the April 21 meeting of the Falls City Council, City Administrator Anthony Nussbaum provided an update on an application for grant funds through the Civic and Community Financing Fund program, for creation of an outdoor amphitheater to be located in the 1500 block of Stone Street.
A notice of non-awarding of the grant for 2025 has been received. In addition Creative District was not awarded state funding in an amount of $100,000.
It was noted the Stalder Foundation remains committed to help fund the project.
The projected cost of the project was previously estimated at $1.2 million.
Nussbaum also noted during his report that work continues in demolishing the old water plant located on South Crook Street.
The basement foundation will not be removed in order to save money. However the foundation will have dirt laid over it.
Demolition work is also underway at the power plant to remove two of the old electric generators at the plant that are no longer in service.
