TV Hospital expansion and parking
The $50 million expansion of The Villages Regional Hospital was announced in May and preliminary site work has begun.
I found this to be interesting. Sumter County will require TVRH to provide a minimum of 600 parking spaces.
TVRH has identified two options:
1. On-site option: Purchase land adjacent to TVRH and construct a parking garage.
2. Off-site option: Develop a surface lot across 27/441 behind The Villages Crossings for employee parking, and provide shuttle transportation between the parking lot and TVRH.
Below is a Memorandum of Understanding between Sumter County and the owners of TVRH allowing a grace period to select one option. This enables TVRH to obtain building permits prior to selecting one option. The memorandum is on the agenda of the Nov. 12, 2013 Sumter County Board of Commissioners regular meeting.
