Meeting the needs of our “own”:

22
The timing Our plans call for approval in 2010; however, we will
time the project with: the economy interest rates — costs of borrowing the health of the financial market and our
investments The cost of doing so is unlikely to ever be lower
www.mainegeneral.org
Building our future: right time, right place, right care
23
The economic impact
“In the short term, the construction project will bring more than $266 million into the state in direct and indirect spending. Further, two large commercial properties may be added to the local tax rolls.”
