The Kenai Peninsula Borough Assembly formally moved the Central Peninsula Hospital expansion into its next step.
The Assembly appropriated the nearly $35 million dollars in bonds for the Specialties Clinic Building along with formally approving the bid award to Neeser Construction out of Anchorage for their low bid of $29,623,000.
Hospital CEO Rick Davis explained the next steps.
Davis: “The finish line is set in the bid so I would anticipate that they will start breaking ground probably within the next month to 45 days and they will begin staging the materials over the next few months and we should begin seeing some cranes show up probably within the next 30 days.”
The expansion project is being funded through revenue bonds.
