The proposed concept is for a Neighborhood Market grocery store, not a "big box retail location." Additionally, there has been no submission for a "variance" presented by the developer; rather, the request before the Planning Board is simply to rezone a portion of the assembled site to make it consistent with commercial zoning of the adjacent land parcels.

The author of this petition appears to be employing emotional misrepresentations to alarm and capture the attention of residents who will benefit from the reduced product pricing, economic stimulation and creation of many job offerings for the community.
