Another step in the transfer of bonds from Washington County Hospital and Clinics to general obligation bonds under the county was approved unanimously at this week’s Washington County Board of Supervisor’s meeting. The interest rate was set at 1.3014995 percent. Seward explained the money saved by doing this amounts to $6.4 million. WCHC CEO Dennis Hunger said at a previous meeting that this action will also take about two years off of the life of the loan.
