Two New Hospitals in Fort Mill?
Carmen asked me Monday if anything new has come up about the new Fort Mill Hospital. I had not heard anything so I did some online research. It seems back in May 2006 Piedmont Medical Center was awarded a certificate by the S.C. Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) to build a 221,985-square-foot, 100 bed hospital called Fort Mill Medical Center on a 40-acre site at the corner of Hwy. 160 West and Hwy. 21. The process allows for an appeal process that was estimated to take 2 years to resolve. I have not been able to find on line any updates on the timing or status of the hospital. Here are a couple links to Fort Mill Times 2006 articles by Jonathan Allen about the Fort Mill hospital.
PMC will receive 10-year break on Fort Mill taxes
Appeals process could take years
Here is a link to a PMC article:
But I did find a related story that popped up in the Fort Mill Times yesterday by Jonathan Allen . Piedmont Medical Center (PMC) was trying to stop Carolinas Medical Center (CMC) from building a medical building and urgent care facility at the corner of Gold Hill Road and I-77. Apparently PMC filed a complaint to DHEC to block the project but the appeal or complaint was denied because the CMC facility is planned as a office building not a medical procedure facility. The CMC building is under construction and is estimated to open in December 2008.
