After a lengthy public comment session, testimony by the Champagn County Nursing Home Board of Directors, questions and comments from County Board members, a bi-partisan majority of the the board overwhelmingly voted to enter into a three year contract with Management Performance Associates to operate the Champaign County Nursing Home.
Later in the meeting, the board passed the $592,000 loan by voice vote, laying the groundwork for MPA to have a fair opportunity to make Champaign County Nursing Home viable again.
I apologize for the short post that lacks analysis of the speakers, questions, etc, but I have not been home all day and am ready for bed!
(also, internet access was not working at Brookens tonight. I plan on asking the proper folks to look into the problem)
