PUBLIC OPINION SURVEY - IREDELL MEMORIAL HOSPITAL
AND LOWRANCE HOSPITAL: Mr. Allen Knox, Chairman of the
Iredell Memorial Hospital Board, and Mr. Grady Shoe, Chairman
of the Lowrance Hospital Board, and other interested persons
were present to hear a summary of the public opinion survey,
which was made by Epley and Associates of Charlotte.
Epley and Associates had conducted a public opinion
survey regarding interest in the hospitals for renovations,
bond issuance, and/or other alternatives for the two county
supported hospitals.
Four hundred people of voting age were interviewed,
Epley said. Areas of questions were whether or not the
public wants to see the county maintain county -supported
hospitals or to sell the hospitals to a private, profit-
making firm. Questions were also asked about the type of
bond issuance the public would like to see the hospitals
be involved in.
Epley said that the results are within three per cent of
the people of Iredell County who are of voting age.
The complete report is available for public inspection.
The Chairman accepted the report as information. 110
