Site Plan Review: No Significant County-wide or Intercommunity Impact
Comment: The Saratoga County Planning Board did comment on the amount of
traffic that flows to and from NYS Route 50 and US Route 9 via VanDam Street as a
cut over to NYS Route 9N which does intersect two of the streets the parking lot for the
private/social club will use as ingress/egress. The City of Saratoga Springs Planning
Board should review any updated traffic studies that have been completed for this
area.
Please contact the Saratoga County Planning Board if you have any questions regarding
this matter.
