Responses are being requested by Nov. 14, and the city is expected to select a single partner by the end of the year. City residents would then vote on the deal sometime in 2012, according to the report.

Despite the city’s move to welcome multiple bids, Bruce Schroffel, president and CEO of University of Colorado Hospital in Aurora recently met with Memorial Health System leadership, pushing the health system to consider it as a partner. Rulon Stacey, president and CEO of Poudre Valley Health System in Fort Collins, Colo., was also on hand. Poudre Valley is currently undergoing due diligence to form a joint venture with the Aurora-based system that would combine both system’s operations.
