Supervisors Back Hillview Plan To Build New Facility
La Crosse County supervisors favor a plan to build a new Hillview Home, phase out Oak Forest in Onalaska, and convert one Hillview floor for elderly housing as a pilot. The action, a advisory committee statement, still requires architect selection, bed counts, cost, and financing decisions before the June 16 board vote.
