Aurora Health CareOn Monday, March 26, the Pleasant Prairie Plan Commission considered and sent a favorable recommendation to the Village Board to approve a Master Conceptual Plan for the construction of an Aurora Health Care ambulatory surgery center and physician office building in Pleasant Prairie. The request was made by Aurora Health Care for the development of 64 acres located at the northwest corner of CTH Q (104th Avenue) and 120th Avenue (West Frontage Road) in the Prairie Highlands Corporate Park. Representatives from Aurora Health Care were in attendance at the meeting to answer additional questions regarding the project.

The proposed $130 million development will include a 100,000 square-foot ambulatory care center and a three story 100,000 square foot office building. The facility is proposed to be open from 5:30 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. and will offer services to meet the growing health care needs of area residents including; primary care, orthopedics and urology, outpatient surgery, rehabilitation services, imaging, laboratory services, occupational health and a pharmacy. There will be a variety of other specialty care services, as well as Aurora Children’s Health Services. The facility will house operating rooms, imaging rooms, prep/recovery rooms, clinic exam rooms, food service, and a laboratory, along with all of the equipment used to support the mentioned services.

The site is being designed to preserve the natural woodlands and wetlands. These features not only make the site aesthetically pleasing, but are beneficial to providing care in a natural environment to promote healing.

It is estimated that there will be 260 full-time and 28 part-time employees at this new Aurora Health Care facility with 140 of the full-time, professional health care positions being newly created jobs. The new facility will operate on two shifts. The project will also bring hundreds of construction jobs to the area as the site is developed and the facility is being built.

The Village, as the current land owner, is drafting the Certified Survey Map to create Lot 2 for Aurora and an outlot north of the Aurora site. Public roadways and utilities for the site will be installed by the Village beginning this fall. Over the next few months the Village will be reviewing Site and Operational Plans with construction intended to begin later this summer with anticipated completion during the summer of 2020.
