Nine months ago, county supervisors approved plans to turn an already existing facility into a crisis center for mental health patients, a service community members had been seeking for years, according to the report.
Now, county supervisors approved plans to build a $250 million hospital wing that would meet the state’s seismic safety requirements. Officials found it would have been too costly and difficult to build the hospital wing around the crisis center and announced it would tear it down. The crisis center became open to the public just six weeks ago.
The crisis center will be relocated to a different area of the hospital’s campus.
