Dear Catoosa Taxpayer,
The Catoosa Board of Commissioners seems determined to bail out Hutcheson Medical Center, no matter the cost. To date, they have backed a $20 million loan and approved a $6 million line of credit for the hospital. Now, the commissioners are considering backing another $60 million of Hutcheson’s debt!
Sign our petition and tell the commissioners that enough is enough!
In Liberty,

Petition to stop the taxpayer bailout of Hutcheson Medical Center to my County Commissioners
WHEREAS: The Catoosa County government has a duty to handle the taxpayers' money responsibly; and WHEREAS: Hutcheson Medical Center has been a failing business for years, making it a risky investment for taxpayer money; and WHEREAS: Catoosa County has already used taxpayer money to back over $25 MILLION in loans to Hutcheson. THEREFORE: We, the citizens of Catoosa County, demand that the Catoosa County Board of Commissioners drop all plans to back any further debt for Hutcheson Medical Center. |
