Address 26 Outlook Ave City Saratoga Springs State NY Zip Code 12866 Phone Number 4158063055 Project Name Washington St. Land Disturbance Activity Project Number 20230378 Project Address 239 Washington Comments I am writing to express my concerns regarding the proposed land disturbance activity permit. While I understand the need for future development in this area, I urge the Planning Board to carefully consider the potential environmental impact of this project on the surrounding neighborhood, particularly around 9/26/24, 10:34 AM Mail - Julia Destino - Outlook https://outlook.office365.com/mail/inbox/id/AAQkADI5NDIzZGRiLTQwNjEtNGM1MS05ZmQxLTUyZTNkMzFiZDJiZQAQAKZE4QOEc5FFtg%2FA2lRdy…1/2 Outlook Avenue and Division Street. My primary concerns include: Groundwater Table: The filling and grading activities may alter the natural flow and absorption of groundwater in the area. This could result in changes to the groundwater table, affecting the local residents and businesses. I request that a comprehensive hydrogeological study be conducted to assess these potential impacts before proceeding. Environmental Impact: The proposed site work could disrupt the local ecosystem, including natural habitats for wildlife and vegetation. Impact on the Community: Any changes to the environment and groundwater table may also affect the well-being of the surrounding community. Increased risk of flooding or water quality issues could have long-lasting effects on property values and the overall quality of life for residents in the vicinity. I respectfully ask that the Planning Board ensures that these concerns are thoroughly addressed in the review process and that appropriate mitigation measures are implemented to protect our community and environment.
