The Planning oard has posted the full text of the article they recently voted 4-1 to submit to the Board of Selectmen for inclusion in the Warrant for the Special Town Meeting currently scheduled of February 22, 2010. The temple is seeking to redevelop the property. The current structure is one they no longer need nor can support. It has become a financial burden. Their hope is to stay on the location in a smaller temple and have the remaining lot commercially developed.  You can read a series of posts on this issue here.

The article begins:

Article ________. To see if the Town will vote to amend Section 10 of the General Bylaws, known as the Zoning Bylaws, by adding the following Subsection L to Section III:
L. Institutional/Commercial Development
