HUNTLEY – Village officials are eager to hear from Centegra Health System executives about why they want to move their $233 million hospital off the original location of Haligus and Reed roads in Huntley.

The two sides meet later this week for the first planning meeting since a state board gave Centegra the green light last summer to build the five-story, 128-bed hospital in the growing area of Huntley.

Centegra’s relocation decision is a minor one, since the hospital still will be built in the area of Haligus and Reed roads. The move would locate the hospital toward the middle of Centegra’s Health Bridge and ambulatory care mall, near Algonquin Road, a half mile south of the original intersection.
