Hearing Set On Facility for Disabled

By Walter F. Roche Jr.

A state agency has scheduled a public hearing for tomorrow on a proposal to build a four-bed facility for current residents of the Greene Valley Development Center.
According to a public notice the hearing by the state Department of Health Facilities and Development, will be held at 6 p.m. at the Greene County Courthouse on the proposal submitted by Sunrise Community of Tennessee.
Sunrise has filed an application for approval of a certificate of need to allow the $949,880 facility to be constructed. If approved it will be the new home for four current residents of the Greene Valley center which is being shutdown under a court approved settlement.
The Sunrise facility, which would be located at 640 Old Shiloh Road in Greeneville, is one of several pending applications before the state agency.
