Provide a summary of the project or program:
           Our goal is to have a building that will have a dual role use. One is for the storing of Emergency Preparedness Supplies. During the COVID emergency we had problems keeping the needed supplies on hand to take care of our patients. We have limited space inside the hospital to store supplies and at times, we had the critical supplies available to us but we had no place to put them. Our plan is to have a building on campus that will have both conditioned and no conditioned space for storage. That will give us the ability to store an adequate amount of emergency supplies that will be readily accessible to the hospital and community when needed. The other half of the space will be used as a maintenance facility with equipment and supplies needed to keep the hospital operational. We currently use several portable buildings placed in various spots on campus that are not adequate to meet our needs.
