Hospital Expands The demand for medical services has increased dramatically since 1980. This demand has overextended the existing facilities to the extent that this medical center has 58% of the space needed to meet present and future workload requirements per established VA guidelines. To meet this demand and the needs of the Indiana veteran through the year 2005 and beyond, a major expansion has been planned at both our division, entitled, “Ginical Improvements/ Mental Health and Behavioral Sciences Center”. The magnitude of the project is considerable — 382,000 cross square feet of new space at the West Tenth Street Division, in addition to 156,000 gross square feet of renovations, effectively expanding and relocating the clinical heart of the medical center. The Cold Spring Road Division will gain new space of 82,000 gross square feet with 26,000 gross square feet of renovations. The total cost of construction at both divisions is currently estimated at $94,400,000 which includes $8,400,000 to complete the design that was appropriated in fiscal year 1989, $79,400,000 for the construction at both divisions, and $6,600,000 for a 500 car parking structure at the West Tenth Street division. President Bush has requested a total of $86,000,000 in his fiscal year 1991 budget proposal to the Congress for the project. Ground was broken for the construction at both divisions in the summer of 1991. Find It In The Classifieds CARBONLESS FORMS To Fil! Your Business Needs Independent-Ne ws 601 Roosevelt Rd . Walkerton
