The exterior is expected to be finished by Christmas. But, the interior and furnishings won't be in place until sometime next year.

P. Fowler, director of the county planning commission, points out that careful planning procedures during the next four years will be an important factor in the city's expansion program......Fowler said the site chosen by Midwest city officials is some 1,300 feet east of the Central Oklahoma Milk Producers association plant. A protest was made by B. G. Graham, manager of the association. A new location for the disposal plant is now being studied, Fowler said."
