Neighbors push back on Golden Valley hospital s expansion Traffic concerns delay the planning panel s decision. February 1, 2021 8:09pm Text size Copy shortlink:
Plans to expand the Regency Hospital campus in Golden Valley are paused amid neighbors concerns about increased traffic along the only road that connects to the hospital.
The proposal, which would add 29,000 square feet to the 83,700-square-foot facility and drive-up traffic an estimated 42%, is subject to city approval. After a more than three-hour planning commission meeting Jan. 25, the decision to recommend approval of Regency s plan was tabled to allow more time to discuss neighbors concerns. Jason Zimmerman, Golden Valley s planning manager, said the commission will again discuss the proposal Feb. 8.
