“Y” site vote likely in February

On the grounds of Oconee Memorial Hospital, a YMCA group is abandoning one location for another.  Last night Dr. Greg Enders, chairman of the ‘Y’ board, showed architectural drawings and an update to the board of directors of the Oconee Memorial Holdings Board.  The board controls hospital properties.  Last year the board approved an easement for an original YMCA location at the back of the hospital.  That location, considered too expensive, has since been dropped from consideration.  The new and preferred location is a wooded area adjacent to the Oconee EMS headquarters.
