The proposal would place a cold-storage facility along Hyland Avenue, with possible restaurant and housing areas, a bus stop, and 25 to 30 acres remaining wooded. The development is expected to take five years and would require wetlands, zoning, and site-design approvals. The Economic Development Commission will eventually recommend whether the property should be conveyed, but no recommendation was made yet.
