Federal officials plan to build a $250 million, 120-bed nursing home and outpatient clinic somewhere in the county. Local lawmakers and veterans groups have rallied for the clinic to be somewhere close to the county hospital in French Camp, because it is near major freeways and adjacent to an existing health facility.
VA officials in May chose to build the proposed clinic somewhere in San Joaquin County and have since narrowed down the location to French Camp or Stockton. They have yet to announce the exact site.
