The Board of the Town of Richmond strongly supports the retention of the St. Croix Health Center.
It has been suggested that closure of SCHC can be used to offset other projects, e.g. highway department building and jail expansion. These and other projects should be able to stand on their own merit and if not, they should be resized or dropped rather than shifting monies from other funds.
The aging of our population is well documented. The SCHC provides high quality services for the aging along with other care. Services and care that we all hope not to need but are reassured that should the need arise, quality care is available. “There but for the grace of God, go I”
The Board for the Town of Richmond, urges the St. Croix County Board to dismiss consideration of the sale of the St. Croix Health Center.
