Lets Be Fair About A County Hospital
Opponents of a county hospital argue Stromsburg and Osceola should keep current facilities until a better option exists. The piece defends modern county hospitals, notes a proposed half mill levy for 20 years to fund a new hospital, and cites federal grant prospects and countywide benefits. It asserts tax costs are modest when spread over 20 years and urges support for a county hospital benefiting all Polk County residents.
