Palouse is no longer being considered for possible annexation into the Pullman Regional Hospital taxing district.
The PRH Commissioners decided in January to proceed with plans to ask voters to expand the hospital’s taxing district. The board initially agreed to try to annex the area around Pullman along with the City of Palouse and areas outside of town out to the Palouse School District boundaries. PRH has since decided to exclude Palouse from the annexation plan. Hospital External Relations Officer Rueben Mayes doesn’t have a specific reason as to why Palouse is no longer being considered for PRH annexation.

The M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust recently awarded Pullman Regional Hospital $450,000 for the clinical and education space for the proposed WSU Family Medicine Residency Program.
Last year, PRH submitted a letter of inquiry to the foundation and submitted a proposal for a grant in the fall, said Rueben Mayes, PRH Foundation chief development and external relations officer.
The hospital was notified in October that the proposal had been accepted. Representatives from the foundation visited the site for the residency program in December, he said
Mayes said the application itself included what PRH intended to do with the money, the cost of the residency program and what impact the grant would have on the project.
