Re: Revised Site Plan – Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Saratoga Springs (UUCSS)
Dear Susan:
Attached is a revised site plan for the proposed Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Saratoga Springs
(UUCSS) new church. As requested by the City Planning Board at the September 26, 2024, meeting, we have
made the following revisions:
1. Total parking on the site has been reduced to 40 cars (2 Handicap spaces plus 38 other spaces),
2. No future parking expansion is indicated on the plans,
3. The vehicular circulation plan has been revised to eliminate the exit lane at the east side of the
drop-off loop and only one exit lane is proposed which traverses through the parking lot,
4. By implementing the above revised, three trees previously proposed to be removed now will remain
(especially the two in the center of the site as pointed out be the Planning Board as being desired
to remain),
5. A pedestrian walkway has been added to the site plan to connect the church site to Bog Meadow
Road. The path will have a crusher run surface and be 6 foot wide, and
6. All driveway pavement will be bituminous. The parking bays, however, will be permeable
bituminous pavement.
Please advise if these changes are acceptable to the Planning Board. We have reviewed the revisions with
the Church Building Committee, and they agree with the requested changes.
