An expansion project for the Islamic Center of Manhattan is one step closer to being put into place.
The Manhattan Urban Area Planning Board approved a request Monday to replat two lots as a one-lot subdivision. The Islamic Center plans to construct a new community center on the property.
According to the proposal, the plat will limit access to two existing driveways on Hylton Heights Road and eliminate the existing driveway on Claflin Road. The plat will dedicate “no access” across the site’s frontage on Claflin Road and add an additional 10 feet of right-of-way along Claflin.
