Permitting issues and design changes have pushed construction of Presbyterian Healthcare’s ninety-million dollar Mint Hill hospital until late 2010. However, the health-care system remains committed to the project despite the delay.

Permitting delays tied to transportation issues and a potential sewer connection will give hospital officials, their builders, and architects time to re-examine the project. Plans to redesign the planned 50-bed hospital hope to capture efficiencies, such as moving the radiology department closer to the emergency room. North Carolina regulators have already approved the number of patient beds and equipment, so there will be no changes with respect to these.
