This can pay huge dividends over time." David Gad-Harf, executive director of the Jewish Com- munity Council of Metropolitan Detroit, also looks at the incident as an opportunity. He said possibly the governor's staff was not "sufficiently aware of Jewish events and con- cerns. That doesn't mean there is enmity or lack of concern. We look at this as an opportunity to get better acquainted with the Engler administration." Mr. Gad-Harf said the Council is asked- by Federa- tion for suggestions for the proclamation. "It's changed each year to reflect the year's events," he said, "but it's fairly non-controversial.

The foundation is expected to present a formal proposal to - the township planning commission in June. Though the foundation has yet to present its plans, the township has already tried to change the zoning or- dinances, which would make it more difficult for the pro- ject. Although Rabbi Yitzchak Kagan, foundation associate director, expects a long battle, he is optimistic the campus will be built, even if it means taking the proposal to court. The foundation wouldn't be the first Jewish group to take that route. There are 23 religious facilities in the township, including Temple Israel, Temple Kol Ami, Congregation Shaarey Zedek B'nai Israel Center, Bais Chabad Shomrey Emunah, Ohel Moed, and Beth Abraham Hillel Moses. In addition, the Jewish Community Campus hous- ing the Jewish Community Center, the Holocaust Memorial Center, Hechtman Federation Apartments, Fleischman Home for Aged, a day camp and nursery school are within township boundaries. Congregation Shaarey Zedek received permission May 6 to double the size of the B'nai Israel building on Walnut Lake Road and use it as a nursery school. Township officials gave the proposal quick approval. Yet, both churches and synagogues seeking to move into West Bloomfield have earned township approval only after questions about parking, building size and traffic were answered.
