SHEBOYGAN, WI -- Sheboygan neighbors getting a first look at plans tonight for a new medical facility.

Aurora Health Care officials say capacity issues and a changing health care industry are fueling the need.
 
But some people are upset over a public park being listed as a potential location.
 
"Why do it secretly? If this is such a great thing for our community--and it would be, just not over our park," says Melissa Brausch, "and I guess we don't understand--why would you put a health care facility over a park?"
 
Aurora Sheboygan Memorial Medical Center has operated out of its current location since 1933.
