Re: Excelsior Park – Special Use Permit Extension
Dear Chairman Torpey:
Enclosed please find an application for the extension of the Special Use Permit issued by
the Saratoga Springs Planning Board on May 13, 2021 to the applicant, Excelsior Park, LLC. As
you may recall, the Special Use Permit was issued following the amended SEQRA findings of
the Board on April 26, 2021 which modified the original environmental review from 2022.
Since the issuance of the amended findings and the Special Use Permit, an application for
site plan review and subdivision of lands within the project site has been under review by the
Board. It is my understanding that application has also been the subject of litigation in the NYS
Supreme Court which has delayed in the implementation of the Special Use Permit issued to the
applicant in 2021 and referred to above. Due to the elongated process present in this matter, the
applicant is respectfully requesting the extension of the Special Use Permit for an additional 18
months to allow the related site plan and subdivision process to arrive at its ultimate resolution.
Thank you for your time and attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
M. Elizabeth Coreno
