Board Meeting Report
   

 

July 25, 2000

  • Minutes, 7-11-00 meeting. Approved.

  • The Financial Reports were presented by Jim Brinkman, CFO. After review and questions the reports were approved.

  • County Commission Chairman Jerry Mayo and County Health Director Dana Rickley updated the Board on their plans for securing new space for County Health. One option is to build a new building for County Health, and possibly also Pioneer Mental Health, along Liberty Street near the hospital on land currently owned by the hospital. Another option is to lease and renovate other building space in the downtown area. Another option was to renovate and build an addition on the hospital owned building at 709 Liberty Street that currently houses Meadowlark Hospice and the County Health Department. The new building option on land near the hospital was preferred by Mr. Mayo and was considered desirable by the CCMC Board. The County Health Department plans to submit a grant application in September for money to build a new building for County Health and Pioneer Mental Health. They would like a letter of support or a resolution of support from the CCMC Board when the grant is submitted. The CCMC Board is in support of the grant application.

  • Chuck Smith presented proposals for repairs to the hospital roof. The Board approved a proposal from McGee Roofing of Clay Center to place new roofing on three large sections of the hospital roof for a total of $78,400 plus optional additional metal edge repair, if needed, up to an additional $5,355.

  • Ron Bender presented a report containing current and future hospital program plans and space use. The report is preliminary and was submitted to the Board for review and direction. It is also being shared with all hospital department heads and the medical staff for their review and input.

  • The Board went into executive session for the discussion of personnel issues at 9:45 and came out of executive session at 10:12. No action taken.

  • It was decided to change the next meeting date from August 8th to August 15th at 8 p.m.
