Veterans will have a new clinic in Lincoln.
That message was clear during a public discussion Tuesday about the future of the Veterans Affairs campus, near O and 70th streets.
But the clinic, which serves about 15,000 veterans, may not be at the VA campus.
There are two processes underway relating to the VA clinic and the VA campus.
The nonprofit Seniors Foundation and six partners have plans to add veteran and senior housing, including apartments and single-story four-plexes, plus medical office buildings to the campus. They would also like to build the new VA clinic at the northwest edge of the campus.
The development group is unveiling its plans this week and hope to have a final contract with the federal government this fall for using the land under a 75-year lease agreement.
Veterans Affairs is also in the middle of selecting a site and developer for a 100,000-square-foot clinic in Lincoln. Officials are looking at potential sites this week and should have a selection by the end of the year, according to information provided at Tuesday’s meeting.
