Plans for VA hospital addition and Dom grounds use
The government may add a 190 bed general hospital on VA grounds formerly Finney General Hospital. It would use Dom facilities and be cheaper than a separate installation. The Dom Dam hosts nearly five hundred patients and could supply water, power, and streets for the new hospital, with possible overlap at the Dom area.
