Chamber mustering support to replace hospital tower
Published 2:56 PST, Wed January 17, 2018
There’s still time to show your support for a
Richmond Chamber of Commerce effort to urge the province to proceed with the
replacement of Richmond Hospital’s acute care tower.
In less than a week after launching the
effort, nearly 8,000 people have written supportive emails or signed a petition
at the Richmond Chamber’s office on Cooney and Ackroyd in downtown Richmond.
Among those supporting the effort is Dr. Zak
El-Ramly, president and CEO of ZE PowerGroup Inc., which employs some 250
people.
“ZE strongly agrees that a new Acute Care
Tower is urgently needed at the Richmond Hospital. Our expanding and diverse
local workforce compels us to ensure that we have the adequate expertise,
equipment and facilities that are needed for the future,” El-Ramly said. “We
kindly urge Premier John Horgan to please include the necessary funding in the
February 2018 budget.”
The signature campaign (details of which are
available at tinyurl.com/RichmondTower) closes on Jan. 22.
Supporters can either email a letter to the
chamber, or come to the Richmond Chamber office and sign in person.
