comments from the general public, and a recommendation from the Community

supporting the same basic project goals as the lands described in Resolution No.

2. The temporary improvement of the additional lands at 540 East Main St. would
maintain a critical element of the public infrastructure, providing significant
community benefit in the form of continued emergency services.
