Melfort council approves process to potentially build a heliport
The ball is rolling for a potential heliport to be built at Melfort Hospital, although it appears to be the first of many steps toward the end goal.
Melfort council approved the forwarding of the resolution and business case study to build a heliport at Melfort Hospital to the Saskatchewan Ministry of Health.
Council met with the Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) to help develop a business case for the heliport.
Mayor Rick Lang called it an early step in the development process but said before it can proceed in any way, shape, or form, it has to be approved by the Ministry of Health.
