Intensity of use at proposed mosque
Summary
The applicant promises 50-60 worshippers per daily prayer service, up to 70-80 during Ramadan evenings and 150 max at special events. Board members worry nothing stops those numbers from growing once the building is up, and that the worship area grew more than 20% over the prior approval even as attendance stays small.

The Tawheed Dahwah Center congregation would gain a new, larger worship space close to their existing mosques.
Neighbors fear traffic, parking on lawns, and a facility that could quietly outgrow its promised numbers.
