(b)convey by deed, without consideration, such jail and site to a historical society incorporated under the laws of Kansas as a charitable or benevolent corporation for the purposes of a historical society, if the board finds that such jail and site should be preserved as a historical site or monument. Such conveyance shall be upon the condition that the title shall revert to the county when the property is no longer maintained and used by such historical society for the purpose for which it was conveyed; or
(c)demolish or repurpose such jail or repurpose such site as the board of county commissioners of such county deems to be in the best interests of the county.
