History

The Hindu Temple was vandalized in April 2006 during a $9 million Temple construction to build 21 mini temples.[2] Currently, the temple is planning to develop adjacent 60 acre agricultural land for community use such as senior housing, condos, staff quarters, school solar energy farm and a yoga retreat center.[3]
