Hospital Future Planning Public Meeting Entertains Delegations from Public

Muskoka Algonquin Healthcare’s Capital Plan Development Task Force is committed to ensuring members of the public have an opportunity to speak directly to the task force as the work around possible models for the future continues.

The task force is hosting a public meeting at District of Muskoka Council Chambers on Thursday, March 1 at 5 p.m. to receive presentations from the community.

The purpose of the public meeting is to listen to the community and hear ideas from the public about hospital future planning that the task force members can ponder and reflect on before making its recommendation to the Board on a preferred model.

To ensure presenters can be accommodated in a schedule, community members are asked to register as a presenter by February 26, 2018 and receive a copy of the Procedure for Delegations by contacting Paula Bildson by email to paula.bildson@mahc.ca or call 705-789-2311 ext. 2756.
