(KLZA)--With no bids submitted to tear down the former 4H Building on South Crook Street in Falls City, Council members accepted a proposal to use the building from Falls City Recreation when they met Monday night. 

Council member Derek Leyden is also a member of the Falls City Recreation Board and proposed instead of tearing down the building, the City allow Falls City Rec to continue to use if for storage.  Currently the group stores soccer goals in the building.

In lieu of rent, Falls City Rec would paint the building and make minor repairs if needed. 

Leyden noted they have volunteer labor and an opportunity for paint and primer at cost is the proposal was accepted. 

Leyden said if at some point the roof of the building becomes and issue, they might be able to use just half of the building and raze any damaged section.
