WASHINGTON — The federal government has awarded a 20-year lease for a new veterans outpatient clinic in the Cleveland suburb of Parma. The clinic will cover an area that includes Brecksville, 8 miles away, where a similar clinic is slated to close. Congressman Dennis Kucinich says the clinic is expected to open in November 2010 and handle over 125,000 outpatient visits. U.S. Sen. George Voinovich says the new facility will serve as a hub for transporting patients and employees to the Cleveland VA Medical Center. The announcement came one day before Veterans Day. The Parma clinic will occupy more than 67,000 square feet and have parking for 500 vehicles.
