During the meeting, a commissioner clarified the ongoing negotiations between Legacy and KRI, emphasizing that communication had been active for months. The commissioner expressed frustration over public misconceptions regarding the transfer of a building, asserting that both parties were committed to the process.
The commission unanimously approved the emergency department funding agreement, allowing Chairman Harris to sign the contract after minor adjustments. This agreement is seen as beneficial, ensuring accountability from the involved parties.
