Harrison Temple Delayed, Issue in Recent Town Board Election

The Harrison, New York Town Board again delayed a decision on the LDS Church's proposed temple by commissioning a fourth study of the proposal's effect on traffic in the neighborhood. The decision, which came just over a week before Tuesday's election, which included several board seats, will delay the board's decision for at least six months. The week before the board's decision, the issue of the temple was raised by voters at a League of Women Voters candidates debate.

The plan was that the Saskatoon Saskatchewan Stake would be dissolved and would be replaced by a Regina Saskatchewan Stake and a Saskatoon Saskatchewan District. At the same time, the Fort Qu'Appelle District of the Canada Winnipeg Mission would be dissolved and the four branches of that district would be absorbed into the Regina Saskatchewan Stake. It was also planned that the two Regina wards (the Regina First Ward and the Regina Second Ward) and the two Regina branches (the Regina Third or Lamanite Branch and the Young Single Adult Branch) would be dissolved. All these units would be reorganized into four wards - the Regina Mount Pleasant Ward, the Regina Lewvan Ward, the Regina Wascana Ward and the Regina University Young Single Adult Ward.
