The group — Kahtnu Ventures — is proposing to construct a single-story freestanding ambulatory surgical center that will be 8,365 square feet with a projected cost of just under $9.1 million. The projected completion date is spring 2013.

 

The first application for the new ASC was denied because of “untimely submission of information,” according to earlier reports.
