Chairman Torpey and Members of the Saratoga Springs Planning Board,
Stewart's Shops last sent correspondence dated October 6, 2020 regarding our store which spans
the intersection of Lake Avenue between Weibel Avenue and Gilbert Road. At that time,
Stewart's was before the Planning Board for a SEQRA determination as the Board was acting as
SEQRA Lead Agency for coordinated review. To refresh the Board's memory, Stewart's needs
area relief from the Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) and subsequently Site Plan approvals from
the Planning Board.
In the October 20201etter, Stewart's indicated it did not control via fee or easement adequate
land to make alterations to the current (nor proposed) access configuration. Since that
correspondence, Stewart's has closed on the�0.37 acres from Willard and Gail Anderson and
obtained an easement for the lands that align with the signal at Weibel and Lake intersection.
Access to the signal at Weibel and Lake will allow the elimination of the Stewart's driveway on
Lake Avenue as the southern leg of the signal will now serve as a driveway to Stewart's.
There are subsequent improvements to the intersection that must be made to accommodate the
installation of a fourth leg to the signal and can best be summarized via the image below. This
image was taken from the Creighton Manning's report dated May 19, 2021 (attached).
