Seneca Healthcare District is seeking timber removal services to begin the first steps in constructing its replacement facility in Chester.
With the passage of Bond Measure B last June, the district has secured the ability to rebuild and meet the state’s deadline of 2030, requiring all hospitals to meet seismic standards. Seneca’s current facility does not meet those requirements and was deemed too costly to retrofit. Qualified contractors are asked to reach out to the district and must be present during a site walkthrough on May 9th. Seneca says work is expected to begin on June 14th with a tentative groundbreaking ceremony to be held on the 16th. Timber removal across the 10-acre site is anticipated to be completed by July 7th.
