Clermont County Eyes Bond Vote for 100-Bed Hospital
The Clermont County Hospital Citizens Committee urges the county commissioners to place a $3,100,000 bond issue and a two year tax levy on the ballot to fund a 100 bed hospital. Plans allocate $100,000 land $450,000 equipment $2,550,000 design and construction. The levy would cover operating costs until first billings are paid at $35 daily. State aid under the Hill-Burton Act may help retire debt or fund improvements. The board will meet with the hospital committee and prosecuting attorney before action. Dr Edward H Hake named director of the county anti poverty dental clinic effective May 2. Commissioners approve road sign and plan to bury seven miles of cable for regional phone service preparations.
