Staff Report

   The Grenada County Board of Supervisors has voted unanimously to seek proposals for the leasing of the Grenada Lake Medical Center.
   The board took the action at its meeting Tuesday on a motion by Supervisor Chad Bridges of District Three. The second was by Supervisor Michael Lott of District One.
   Bridges, who also serves as president of the board, said the action authorizes the drafting of a request for proposals (RFP) for the long-term lease of the hospital without the option to purchase.
   “The supervisors have reviewed the information available to them,” Bridges said in a written statement, “and have determined that it is best to solicit proposals to lease the hospital. Proposals will then be evaluated and considered.”
   This is the latest move by the board in its study of the hospital’s future. Discussions and review of whether to sell or lease the county-owned facility began in March.
   According the plan adopted by the board Tuesday, all requests for proposals to lease GLMC must specify a minimum capitalization requirement.
