The voters approved a 40-bed nursing home, an addition to the sewage disposal system and improvements to the water system. In a supplementary question to the nursing home question, Blair voters expressed the opinion that it should be financed by secured mortgage revenue bonds, meaning that the city will back the bonds, thus gaining a lower interest rate. The votes were: nursing home, 374 yes and 94 no; sewage disposal, 406 yes and 44 no; and improvement and expansion of the water system, 382 yes and 49 no.
