Committees moved forward on a new $80 million health services building to replace the 50-year-old Verkuilen building, funded initially by $25 million in state money. Demolition of the old Verkuilen was deliberately left undecided, and some commissioners want it preserved.
Board of Commissioners - Joint Finance/Audit/Budget and Internal Services Committees - Apr 14, 2026
The 1961 Mount Clemens health building is failing — HVAC at risk of total collapse, a red-tagged elevator, and vaccine losses — so consultants propose a new $80 million two-story facility at the Verkuilen site. A $25 million state grant funds design and early construction, with bonding around 2028; south-end commissioners pressed for guarantees that Warren-area health services will remain.
