Residents later this month will be asked to approve the purchase of a 5.28-acre parcel of land along the Connecticut River.

The Board of Selectman voted Wednesday to send the proposal to a Feb. 28 town meeting.

The property, comprising three contiguous parcels - 222, 232 and 248 Brownstone Ave. - is the site of the former Connecticut Tar & Asphalt Co. It has been vacant for the past decade.
