WHEREAS, Houston Methodist has announced plans to build a new |
|
400-bed hospital in Cypress; and |
|
WHEREAS, The new facility will be the ninth hospital in the |
|
Houston Methodist health care network, which currently operates a |
|
number of primary care clinics in the area; Houston Methodist |
|
recently acquired a 106-acre property on the east side of the |
|
Northwest Freeway, and a master plan has been developed for the |
|
campus that includes outpatient clinics and multiple medical office |
|
buildings, along with additional space for growth and expansion; |
|
and |
|
WHEREAS, The campus will be modeled after existing Houston |
|
Methodist locations in Houston and The Woodlands; once completed, |
|
it is expected to bring hundreds of jobs to the area, while |
|
providing local residents with ready access to the world-class |
|
health care that is synonymous with Houston Methodist; and |
|
WHEREAS, Houston Methodist hospitals are vital resources to |
|
countless Texans, and it is a privilege to join in celebrating this |
|
welcome addition to the Cypress community; now, therefore, be it |
|
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 87th Texas |
|
Legislature hereby congratulate Houston Methodist on the |
|
construction of its new location in Cypress and extend to all those |
|
involved in this venture sincere best wishes in bringing it to |
|
fruition. |
