Hearing Date For Mercy Crystal Lake Hospital


Mercy Crystal Lake Hospital and Medical Center has been given a date of October 7 for a public hearing on an application for permit for a proposed construction and/or modification of a hospital and medical center. This is a revision of the request for a permit made in June, which was turned down by the Illinois Health Facilities Review Board. The planned location is on the southeast corner of Route 31 and Three Oaks Road, as previously planned.

The hearing is slated to begin at 10:00 a.m. in the Crystal Lake Municipal Building, 100 Woodstock Street, Crystal Lake, This is the same location of the first hearing held in March.

When the State Board met in June to consider this request along with one from Centegra for a new hospital in Huntley, they voted an intent to deny both petitions.

The revised proposal for Mercy is smaller and somewhat less costly.
