LEESBURG — Lee County Commission Chairman Rick Muggridge is expected to announce at the commission’s meeting tonight that Lee County will finance the construction of a $50 million, 50-bed hospital that will be located on property that is now the Grand Island golf course.
Lee County sources say the hospital will offer “state-of-the-art health care along with affiliations with some of the best specialty medical services in the country.”
The county will finance construction of the hospital with proceeds obtained through bonds issued by the Lee County Development Authority. Once constructed, a real estate development company working under the authorization of the Development Authority will sublease the hospital to an experienced operator, that officials described as “well-qualified.”
Officials did not say which medical services provider would sublease the hospital, but a source noted the county was “negotiating with several entities, and once we announce (the provider) everyone will be impressed.”
