Bowie Memorial Hospital bringing in nationally-known speakers
Bowie Memorial Hospital will provide a series of informational speakers for a town hall meeting from 6:30 to 8 p.m. on Oct. 20 focusing on the formation of a hospital district.
Ernie Parisi, interim chief executive officer, said they invite everyone to attend to hear speakers on a variety of issues, along with information on the hospital’s action plan.
National and state speakers will provide insight on the reimbursement and financial issues facing rural health care and specifically rural hospitals. They will address the loss of health care and hospitals in rural America, and the impact that can have on a community.
The board of directors also will discuss the action plan, proposed tax rate and exemptions. There also will be a time for questions and answers. Read more on the background of these professionals in your mid-week Bowie News.
The Nocona City Council approved a trio of Nocona Economic Development Corporation requests and considered infrastructure work questioned by a city council.
Councilors met on June 10. Two of the NEDC requests had already been presented with the timeclock for comment started. With that time limit over, the requests were finalized.
The Type A and B Boards will spend $19,225 at the Indian Oaks Golf Club for equipment, aerifying and top dressing the greens and batteries for rental carts. It also will expend $20,000 to the Nocona Chisholm Trail Rodeo Arena Committee to build new concrete bleachers, railings, fence and platform.
The third NEDC request is a new one related to a Type B board loan of $200,000 to Amy and Chris Nunneley for a new apartment and office construction project.
