This podcast is a visit with Texas A&M university chief operating officer Greg Hartman and WTAW's Bill Oliver.

The Texas A&M system board of regents at its November 10, 2022 without discussion approved a request from the flagship to donate land at the health science center (HSC) to allow Brazos County to build a medical examiner's office.

A&M chief operating officer Greg Hartman, who presented the request during a regents workshop in August, visited with WTAW News after the vote about the evolution of the project during the last couple of years when he was working at the HSC.

The college of medicine will be involved in the day to day operations and another avenue for research.

The new county budget includes $24 million dollars in federal pandemic grant money to build the facility.

Hartman says construction could start as soon as 2024.
