Oswego Health’s Plan To Relocate Behavioral Health Services Moves Ahead
At Monday’s Physical Services Committee meeting, Oswego Health requested council consideration for the use of public space by way of a permenant easement of property adjacent to 29 E. Cayuga St., the site of the proposed Oswego Health Behavioral Health Services facility. The request was sent to the full council for review. On February 21, the Oswego Zoning Board of Appeals unanimously approved a special use permit for business occupancy, moving the Oswego Health Behavioral Health Services relocation project forward. As Oswego Health renews its Behavioral Health Services facilities, with assistance from a state grant for $13 million, it will also repurpose the long-time vacant commercial building.
