Request by Harris Health System for approval of the conveyance of a water meter easement for the LBJ Hospital Expansion Project.
end
Background and Discussion:
The existing Lyndon B Johnson Hospital is over 36 years old and reaching the end of its useful life.
Infrastructure issues and site constraints frequently contribute to a reduction in available hospital beds in a
community with significant needs for inpatient services. Analysis from architectural and engineering
consultants indicate it is more practical and feasible to replace the facility than renovate. This Water Meter Easement will facilitate the permit application process and provision of water services to the LBJ Hospital site.
Expected Impact:
A new hospital will significantly improve care delivery within the community by increasing access to healthcare services and improving quality of outcomes into the foreseeable future.
Alternative Options:
No viable alternatives have been identified. The existing site significantly constrains facility size, capacity, access, and the ability to maintain existing services.
County Strategic Plan Goal: 4. Improve physical and mental health outcomes across all communities.
