KINGMAN – What promised to be a routine meeting of the Hospital District #1 of Mohave County on Tuesday, January 9, was far from routine. This little-known District Board has operated for decades in near obscurity with virtually no interest from the public and little being reported about it. The last election brought about changes to the board and there is a mostly-new board in place.
