Lakewood moves to block Westlake Health Campus plan
Lakewood City Council will sue to halt the Westlake Health Campus project with help from Elyria and Lorain hospitals. Lakewood Hospital trustees say the $43 million project was improperly approved and would raise regional health costs while Bay View and St. John’s hospitals pledge support for court action. Local officials accuse Lakewood of pursuing self interest and replacing beds with a costly legal delay.
