KVH Seeks Bond Measure For Hospital Improvements

Klickitat Valley Health is putting a bond measure before Klickitat County Hospital District 1 voters on the August 3 ballot that is similar to one that received over 56 percent approval in November, but short of the 60 percent mark required for passage.  KVH Chief Executive Officer Leslie Hiebert says if approved, the 25-year bond will provide facility and service improvements, including a new acute care and inpatient unit, additional long-term care beds, a new surgery unit with expanded capabilities and growth space to meet future community healthcare needs.  Hiebert noted this is meant to take the hospital through the next two decades.  The proposed property tax levy is 68 cents per thousand dollars of assessed value.  A community information night is scheduled for Tuesday at 6 p.m. at the Goldendale Grange, and more information is available at kvhealth.net.
