  Ketchikan is a step closer to renewing its agreement with the nonprofit that runs the community’s hospital.  The City Council says the terms of the new lease give the city more oversight and ensure needed investments and upgrades will be completed by the city and PeaceHealth, which has run the hospital for decades. The new 20- to 40-year lease outlines millions in repairs and upgrades and seeks to cut down on large unforeseen medical bills. It also requires the hospital to provide regular updates to the city and take feedback from the council and community. Council Member Dave Kiffer says the new lease is a big upgrade over the prior deal between PeaceHealth and the city, which was signed in 1981 and later extended. PeaceHealth and its predecessor, the Sisters of St. Joseph of Peace, has run the city’s Tongass Avenue hospital since it first opened in the 1960s.
