that question and respond to the council. He added that staff had researched at least 30 sites and rigorously <br />reviewed five in the preferred area and would continue to do so. City Manager Taylor commented that <br />McKenzie-Willamette Medical Center wants to build a 148-bed hospital, with 100,000 square feet of <br />medical office space, and therefore this proposal had some benefit to the City in terms of a tax base. <br /> <br />Mayor Piercy shared that the representatives of McKenzie-Willamette Hospital made it very clear to the <br />City that they have exhausted their search for a hospital with the two final sites at Delta Highway and <br />Glenwood now under consideration. City Manager Taylor pointed out that the Glenwood site did not <br />include option agreements. Mr. Kelly pointed out that the Glenwood site was yet another flood plain site. <br /> <br /> <br />The motion passed 6-1-1 with Ms. Taylor in opposition, and Mr. Pryor abstaining. <br /> <br />The meeting adjourned at 7:12 p.m. <br /> <br />Respectfully submitted, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Dennis M.
