No fears that there will be an abandoned building. It will quickly become another nursing home.

All I can say is YUCK!! I feel very sorry for the 101 employees that stayed at Polk...I predict a rapid employee turn over & FMC will just shut it all down & go home if there are losses. After all, Uncle Kurt MUST be paid! FMC still has to get the state to agree to their plan for a new facility, someone has to pay for all the utility upgrades, road improvements, etc at the new site...& then poor Cedartown Main St will have a giant, abandoned building that will rapdily become very ugly just sitting there with a real estate sign out front. Like I have been saying all along, let's see what happens now. It is REDMOND all the way for me.
