Mayview State Hospital Task Force

The purpose of the Mayview State Hospital Task Force is to address the issue of how to best reuse the facility once the hospital operations are closed. The Department of Public Welfare (DPW) is targeting the end of this year for closure of the hospital.

The task force brings together representatives of local communities, the county and the state, as well as the general public, to identify options for reusing the facility and the grounds.

It's anticipated that the task force will meet regularly up to and potentially beyond the end of this year.

The Mayview State Hospital Task Force is chaired by state Sen. John Pippy (R-37) and state Rep. Nick Kotik (D-45).
