Renovation of the Hall County Health Department have been completed, and the county is ready to celebrate with a ribbon-cutting and open house.
“We broke ground on the Health Department Campus project in November 2023, finished phase one in September 2024, and can now mark this project as complete with renovations wrapped up at the existing Health Department building,” Hall County District 4 Commissioner Jeff Stowe said. “This project fulfills a great need, not only in my district, but to the overall growing population in Hall County, and we are excited to be able to expand and enhance healthcare services to our deserving citizens.”
Phase I of the overall Health Department Campus project included the construction of a new 8,000-square-foot medical office building which is currently leased to Northeast Georgia Physicians Group (NGPG), and which was formerly housed in the preexisting Health Department building.
Upon NGPG’s moveout, Phase II of the project began, which included state-of-the-art renovations, ultimately expanding the usable square footage for daily Health Department operations.
“I would like to thank Hall County Government for renovating the Hall County Health Department and for all the improvements to the Butler campus,” Department of Public Health District 2 Director Dr. Zachary Taylor said. “I can confidently say that Hall County now has the finest health department facility in Georgia. The Hall County employees assigned to the renovation did a fantastic job working with the contractors, Hall County Health Department leadership and employees, and with our District 2 leadership.”
The total budget for the project was $10.9 million, funded by the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) and Special Purpose Local Option Sales Tax (SPLOST).
Light refreshments will be served at the ribbon cutting and open house which are scheduled to take place Thursday at 3:00.
