1. Barton could have already retrofitted its one noncompliant building in CA, for far less than they've already spent on NV real estate...let alone the new proposed construction

​

2.  Demo the current one story building that does not meet seismic requirements and build a new hospital in this location.

 

3.  Make the proposed Stateline, NV site a community park.  Barton could bank the coverage from this site and use it in another area.  This park would be a meeting area for the community.  We could use this area for markets, running/biking races, music events etc...

 

4. Barton could swap land with the county, and build at the long-abandoned middle school campus across the highway. It is 20+ acres, and wouldn't require them to build an expensive underground parking garage in a swamp, plus an expensive skywalk above the highway.

​

5.  Barton could have purchased and built on the old Wells Fargo land in the casino corridor.  Maybe they can still purchase this land before Latitude 39 starts construction?

​

6. Barton could locate all their emergency services, and raise their height limits, on their existing property on the east side of 50 -- where the urgent care already is. It's next to a parking garage and a gas station, instead of homes; its entrance is already on the highway, instead of in a neighborhood; it's at the bottom of a steep hill, so raising height limits wouldn't block anyone's views or literally overshadow their homes.
