Building Ihspecto DAT1 ci 1 t I To: Members of The Saratoga Springs Zoning Board of Review From: Bob Israel, Phone 271-7400 RE: Marvin Alley/Cherry Street Projects Date: April 17, 1989 The site plan attached.to this memorandum proposes three separate projects which are in turn interrelated. This memo attempts to summarize the three projects in order to highlight the considerable amount of thought that has gone into the projects and hopefully to indicate why the combined projects will contribute to the development of the neighborhood and the City at large. The reasons are as follows: 1. The lots in question are zoned Multiple Residential. (I note the small lot on Marvin Alley may also be zoned R-4 because of the grandfathering provision of the PUD ordinance.) The ordinance's purpose for R-4 is to encourage the development of multiple family housing adjacent to the central business district. This type of housing will broaden the diversity of the City's affordable housing stock, but also to strengthen the cities central core. The area where these projects are located historically, have been fragmented into a multiple of small underutilized lots. By combining an assemblage of these parcels, a workable solution to achieve the goal of multiple family housing for the neighborhood is achieved. 2. The neighborhood where the proposed projects are located is an area of insecurities. The people who live in the Franklin Square area are desperately trying to achieve a sense of security frout•wr at they consider is an out slaught of industrial development. The hard won balance between industrial, commercial and residential development is teetering on the brink.. By investing significant sums into residential development along the very boarder of the industrial PUD, this project will secure the neighborhood into the zone originally envisioned by the zoning ordnance and the PUD. The residential and retail nature of the Franklin Square Area will be secured and the slow encroachment of the industrial users will be provided for inside the boarders of the PUD where they were intended to be. • 3. Without question, one of the significant needs in Saratoga is for affordable housing. The three projects as a totality, contribute by providing, three distinct types of affordable housing. First of all, the project on Cherry Street utilizes State Funds through the New York State housing Trust Fund, to rehabilitate a building of historic merit, into decent large family oriented apartments, at below market rental rates, for people with below medium level incomes. After completion by Franklin Square Associates, title will be turned over to the Saratoga Springs Preservation Foundation to administer the property for the benefit of low income people, in perpetuity. The current living conditions in this building are deplorable. The seven unit apartment building planned for Marvin Alley is made possible by the newly rehabed structure buffering the industrial development mentioned above and the ability to acquire the land made possible by the apportionate of costs between the two projects. Very few moderately priced multiple family units can be built because of high land valve and the abolition of tax incentives previously available. When units will be suitable for the elderly and young persons not yet able to afford to buy their own homes. Because of the location, the market will dictate moderately priced rental rates. Nd government funding will be used for this building. The small house which may be moved to another site along Marvin Alley if feasible, will provide another affordable single family house which is often lacking in Saratoga Springs. Again because of the location, the market will dictate reasonably priced housing. It is also hoped that if this structure can be reasonably moved, a small but precious historic building will be resurrected from the dilapidated shack currently visible. It is very important that this structure or one like it help screen the industrial development from the historic Franklin Square area. 4. Finally, Franklin Square Associates takes considerable pride in seeing the Franklin Square area developed from its former status of decay and crime, to its current state of a vigorous, optimistic neighborhood of older middle class residents, small owner run shops, and residential moderate income tenants who enjoy the ambiance and charm of one of Saratoga's most historic neighborhoods. We have shown ourselves over the years to be good neighbors, who take special care with both the historic renovation of their buildings and the maintenance and management after completion. We are here for the long term and provide a stabilizing force for the west side. • We ask that you show the confidence in our ability to carry through the unique and difficult projects presented as you have done in the past with our other projects. We do not present these projects as easy solution to the issues discussed. We do however feel, that because they represent a unique solution, that they will be special, and add to the ambiance that has made our City the special place it is. • /M14",N 414-6-f• hc%cc.t., #17J ) /),Vit, ') .
