Platte Valley medical clinic’s fate may be reveled tonight

The future of the Platte Valley medical clinic is not a topic listed on the agenda for tonight’s Saratoga Town Council meeting, but it may still be discussed. The town owns the clinic. Two weeks ago, officials said they would use tonight’s meeting to announce what will happen in January after the current doctor’s lease on the medical facility expires. At the same time, the management team at the nearby senior assisted living center, which has faced financial difficulties for several years, is looking to forge a new business model. That new plan could include partnering with the town to combine resources at the clinic. Until now though, all talks surrounding any possible merger or changes at the clinic have occurred behind closed doors. Emma Diercks has more.
