County residents will vote on whether to approve the funding in November. The system will use the bond to rebuild Houston-based LBJ Hospital to make it a level-one trauma center. The hospital would undergo $433 million in renovations.
Additionally, Harris Health would use the funding to build a new tower at Houston-based Ben Taub Hospital and extend the hospital’s life span by 15 years.
The bond would cost the average homeowner in the county $6 per month.
