The committee will propose that PRMC remain a county-owned, non-profit facility and that bond payments for a new facility be made in equal parts by the hospital and by funds from a 1 percent sales tax. The committee also proposes PRMC retain the current $4 million property tax as backup for any additional property tax.
County commissioners will vote on the proposal on July 18.
