Document Description
Construction of a new 5-floor (4 stories above grade and one below grade basement floor) hospital tower south of and connected to the existing 3-story hospital tower. There will be a helipad on the roof. The new tower will bring hospital into conformance with state seismic safety regulations and is desired also to upgrade the quality of medical services offered at the hospital. Project will increase total licensed beds from 116 to 143. To achieve construction of the new tower, and the necessary modifications in parking space requirements and layout, as well as improvements to existing hospital area on-and off site circulation patterns, several on-site building demolitions are also proposed. In total, City of Tulare land use regulations require the processing of several land use entitlement requests for which this EIR will be utilized by the City in its approval processes.
