Prescott Valley predicts College expansion in next five years

Newspaper story says College medical complex coming in next five years 

The Prescott Valley Tribune ran a story written by Les Bowen on May 7, 2015 extolling the economic development in Prescott Valley.  In that story, Mr. Bowen wrote that the Yavapai Regional Medical Center’s east campus and the Mountain Valley Regional Rehabilitation Hospital  are attracting doctors and smaller health care-related businesses to Prescott Valley.

expansionHe also wrote that “In the next five years, town leaders are looking at the opportunities that will come with the planned expansion of Yavapai College facilities in Prescott Valley, in partnership with Northern Arizona University, offering bachelor and graduate programs and expanded courses of study in nursing and health care-related fields.”

This will come as a shock to many who have been hearing from the College Administration that the Prescott Valley campus idea has been pushed back for many years.  The administrators and some on the District Governing Board are fond of saying that the Prescott campus expansion in the ten-year-development-plan is just a concept–not a plan.  Well, seems like the folks in Prescott Valley think it is a plan.
