To build a hotel on 3 acres of parkland adjacent to Amherst’s Northtown Center, an equal or greater amount of parkland needs to be designated elsewhere in the town.

The parcel town officials have identified as potential new parkland is greater – nearly nine times greater, in fact.

A 26.6-acre parcel of wooded, town-owned land between North French Road and Casey Road in the East Amherst Conservation Area has been proposed.
