BACKGROUND
On December 11, 1993, the Board of Supervisors met with the Board of Directors of

Directors of the three district hospitals respond with their input.
Preliminary responses have been made regarding the five-point outline. It would be
reasonable at this time, therefore,. to pursue further discussions towards coopera-

County's health responsibilities and to know exactly what the different options
would cost.
