r Complete Auto Repair a MR. MECH Foreign & Domestic Shir Shalom Wins Approval KIMBERLY LIFTON Staff Writer A fter months of delays over parking and traffic concerns by the planning commission, the West Bloomfield Township Board of Trustees this week unanimously ap- proved site plans for con- struction of Congregation Shir Shalom. No groundbreaking date has been set, and congrega- tion officials would only say they hope to move into their new building "as soon as possible." Officials said they will meet in the coming weeks with architect Kenneth Neumann to refine plans before the construction bidding process is launched. "The congregation is very elated over West Bloomfield township's approval," said David Levine, Shir Shalom president. "Obviously, we are quite happy," said Rabbi Darnel Schwartz. "The fact that the meeting lasted only 15 minutes and was a 6-0 vote with no comments from the floor was a good sign. "Each member of the council was very good to us." Township Hall was packed Monday night with repre- sentatives from Temple Shir Shalom. Neighbors who said the proposed site at the southeast corner of Orchard Lake and Walnut Lake roads would create conges- tion on the roads were ab- sent. Last August, the temple purchased an 8.5-acre parcel of land in West Bloomfield for a 30,000-square-foot temple. Planned is a 350- seat sanctuary, social hall and classrooms. The decision to build a congregation followed Shir Shalom's massive growth since the congregation form- ed in 1988. Officials said it has outgrown its 9,000-square-foot space it rents in a Maple Road office building. Membership has climbed from its original 30 families to over 500 families. No timetable has been set, but construction is expected to take place in two phases, totaling $5.5 million, Mr. Levine said. Bob Fineman, the temple's past president, will head fund-raising efforts. Although no fund-raising plans have been determined, Mr. Levine said he hopes a campaign will begin sometime this summer. ❑ Mr. Mechanic also specializes in major engine repair, computer diagnostics, clutch replacement, front end work, electrical repair, air conditioning service and exhaust systems.
