County hospital plan faces heated vote on project
APC News Service A final vote is expected Feb. 19 to approve a contract for the construction of a county hospital. The plan spurred hours of wrangling as the county board, amid a primary election, weighed a $301.8 million bid from Walsh Construction Co. and Rite Way. Critics questioned the bid amount and bidding irregularities while supporters said the project is essential and could save about $80 million annually.
