The 64,000-square-foot expansion will add a three-story building with new operating suites, an additional intensive care unit, and a new inpatient care unit with private rooms.

The hospital will also renovate a 14,000-square-foot surgical space on the second floor of its existing facility. 

The project is funded in part by a $23.1 million bond issue that was approved by voters in 2021. 

Construction is slated to begin on Dec. 5 and will wrap in late 2024.
