It may seem like it has taken forever, but the more than 18 months of work setting up the privatization of city-owned Hutchinson Area Health Care appears to be on the cusp of completion.

A quintet of resolutions and ordinances related to the privatization are on the agenda for the Hutchinson City Council's Aug. 28 meeting.

The ordinances include one approving the lease of the hospital's property, including Burns Manor, to the new nonprofit Hutchinson Health Care, and another for the nonprofit's articles of incorporation and bylaws.
