DANVILLE, Ind. (WISH) A zoning board in Hendricks County on Tuesday night recommended the rezoning of 80 acres of land for developers to build a campus for the Muslim community.
The board advanced the measure with a 4-3 vote. The board’s recommendation now goes to the Hendricks County Board of Commissioners for their final approval.
About 60 people showed up at a zoning meeting at the county fairgrounds to voice their opinions on the project. The crowd was significantly larger than normal.
The issue gained a significant amount of attention after a petition online against the project brought about hateful speech regarding the Islamic community.
