TOWN OF SUMMIT - The new Aurora Medical Center is roughly 85 percent complete and counting down to its opening, but you wouldn’t know it from the rumors circulating.

Aurora Health Care spokesman Peter Balistrieri said rumors claiming Aurora had run out of money and was not intending to finish the project are just that - rumors. He said the facility is still on track to open in early 2010.

"Nothing could be further from the truth," Balistrieri said of the rumors. "I cannot stress enough that both projects are on schedule and will be completed."

He said a similar rumor had sprung up in Grafton, where Aurora plans to wrap up the construction of a medical center in fall 2010.
