The Knoxville Hospital & Clinics was presented with a total $1.36 million in loans to assist with their expansion and renovation project.

CEO Kevin Kincaid says the USDA is providing the loans interest free. A $1 million USDA loan check came through Pella Cooperative Electric while a second one worth $360,000 was through Central Iowa Power Cooperative.
Kincaid says the partnerships with them, along with work from the county and state governments aided in the hospital receiving the loans.
