Weather slows hospital project

Decatur Daily Democrat:

Wet weather in the area has not affected only sporting events.

Adams Health Network (AHN) Executive Director Marvin L. Baird reported to AHN trustees at their meeting this week that construction work at two of the organization's work sites have crawled to a snail's pace due to wet grounds.

The new physician's office building adjacent to the hospital has seen "very little" work in recent days although the foundation has been poured. The anticipated finish date of late August will not be met, in all probability, due to weather woes, according to Baird.
