Adopted by the City Council this 27th day of June, 1966.
Motion was made, seconded and carried to adjourn at 11:10 P.M.
NOTES RE HUTCHINSON COMMUNITY HOSPITAL
(For information only)
HARRY JENSEN - In order to obtain Hill -Burton funds there can only be one hospital facili
in the city. New hospital is badly needed. Present facilities and equipment are
fully paid - no indebtedness; approximately $50,000accounts receivable, $10,000 in
cash, plus equipment.
Would suggest using existing hospital as a nursing home for those requiring more
than Burns -Manor care.
Have taken up with attorneys the revising of by-laws so that they can have legal
authority to dispose of property on behalf of a non-profit organization.
ATTORNEY SCHANTZEN - The law states a city can accept hospital and property and
assets. City could then condemn property for expanding facilities at the present
site.
DR. HUEBERT - Hill -Burton provides about 40% of funds necessary. They set the plans,
now talking about 45 beds, which would be adequate for immediate future, but need
expansion if Hutchinson continues to grow at'expected rate. 1-1/2 million dollars.
DR. PETERSON - Does not feel present location is good for hospital expansion.
DR. BRETZKE - Thinks present location is fine. Intensive care unit in present
facilities in connection with hospital very good idea.
GENERAL REMARKS
Interest rates would be more advantageous to the city than to a private hospital.

Mayor, City of Hutchinson

Hutchinson, Minnesota
Dear Mr. Kost:
Thjpk you sincerely for the copy of the letter you addressed to Mr.
Dirks on June 20th, wherein you promise support for a program that
will help alleviate the serious situation at Lake Kandiyohi.
Every community located on the lower reaches of the Crow River
o?ght to be ready to do battle on stopping the vicious and destruc-
tive program that has been going on for years in Renville and
Kandiyohi Counties. It is not a question of just fishing, but more
important by far, is the question of floods and the indication of
future loss of needed supplies of water.
As I told Mr. Dirks, we will be very happy to cooperate to the ful-
lest in any feasible program that may be taken to stop further des-
truction of the water resources to say nothing about the loss of
soil through siltation and floods.
Sincerely,
OLK:ds
