Prince George’s County Executive Jack Johnson said Tuesday he will decide within the next two weeks whether to releasethe millions of dollars the county has been withholding from the operators of its cash-strapped hospital system.

Johnson made his comments following a meeting Monday evening with the new Dimensions Healthcare System board chairman, Bill Williams, hours after the board voted to drop a $14 million lawsuit against the county. Dimensions runs the county-owned hospital system.
