Michael Hastings Tinley Park has gotten the plan for
the development of the 30-bedded psychiatric hospital in Tinley Park approved.
The hospital is going to be very helpful for the children and the adolescents
in the southern suburbs who are in need of inpatient treatment. As the nearby
area is devoid of any inpatient mental health care, the hospital is going to be
a real solution for the problem that was causing inconvenience to the community
of the local area.
Hastings made sure that all the
resources are used properly, which is why he is pushing the state police to
utilize the vacant Lincoln-Way North High school. The extra-large campus can be
used to create a forensic lab which will also develop the area economically.
The school was closed in 2016 and since then it is vacant.
Hastings has worked very hard to
provide the economic benefit to the community, which makes him one of the most
renowned senators.
