Mr. George Mitchell of Rocky Mount, Missouri, was the first witness sworn" in. He turned the presentation over to Bill Blaydes, 6718 Kingsbury Drive, Dallas, Texas .

Mr. Robinson stated that the property owners felt!i that a Nursing Home would detract from their residences and would not be an asset to the neighborhood.

Mr. Frevert then questioned Mr. Blaydes regarding the area and the nature of the zoning for the location of the site of their facility in Mexico, Missouri. In response to a question from Mr. Frevert, Mr. Blaydes statedil that a Nursing Home facility- of this magnitude could only be operated with the full cooperation of the community and if this request were denied because of strong opposition,, in his opinion, the project would probably be cancelled for the Jefferson City area.
