Agreed. I think many commenting don’t truly understand where this is being proposed. There are many other parts of town, even close to Main St, it would be fine, but not that corner lot next to town hall.
Not against the project, but NOT on that specific unique lot.
Those opposed are absolutely correct.

Those resisting this are correct. It is against zoning, and the zoning is appropriate in this case.
It is the absolute wrong use for that parcel of land.
It is a terrible location for it. Further up or down Route 1, NOT downtown would be appropriate.
The town should purchase the lot and make it a park. That could host local farm market and artists. To take advantage of the visitors to town.

The opposition to this is because the exact spot they are proposing it. It would be acceptible in many other parts of town, even close to Main St.
