PREPARED BY: The Environmental Design Partnership, LLP 900 Route 146 Clifton Park, NY 21065 DATE: February 10, 2025 Area Variance Application 101 Wright Street ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN Bluestar Enterprises,LLC. ap PARTNERSHIP,LLP. City of Saratoga Springs,New York Shaping the physical environment 1.0 INTRODUCTION The attached plan proposes site improvements at 101 Wright Street, illustrating the existing primary residential structure and the layout of key hardscaping and landscaping elements. These include rear concrete stairs leading to a stamped concrete patio. The stairs require an area variance from the City of Saratoga Springs due to encroachment into the rear yard setback. The variance application has been prepared in accordance with Chapter 240 of the City of Saratoga Springs Zoning Ordinance and the Area Variance Application requirements. The tax map identification number for the parcel is 179.21 - 3 - 3. The Applicant proposing this development is Blue Star Enterprises, LLC of Saratoga Springs, NY. The Applicant acknowledges that the need for this variance arises due to an unintentional oversight into the initial design and construction. The rear exterior stairs were not originally considered part of the principal building. While the zoning code does not explicitly define exterior concrete stairs as part of the principal structure, the City has interpreted them as such, resulting in the setback encroachment. Given this interpretation, the variance is necessary to provide safe access to the rear yard while maintaining the existing construction. 2.0 SITE LOCATION, ZONING AND CHARACTER The property is located between Nelson Avenue and the Saratoga Flats Racecourse, immediately adjacent to the Saratoga Track Side Grill and approximately 250 feet west of the clubhouse entrance. It is situated within the Urban Residential 2 District, surrounded by single-family homes, Saratoga track parking to the rear, the Saratoga Flat Track Course across the street, and commercial businesses. Prior to the lot now being developed it was a vacant lot used for track parking during track season. The site is relatively flat and, during the off-track season, the rear of the property abuts an open field with no immediate residential homes directly behind it. There are no constrained lands located on the site. 3.0 PROPOSED AREA VARIANCE The proposed concrete stairs necessary for egress out of the rear of the residence will require an area variance as shown in the table below, seeking relief from permitted zoning requirements and guidelines to accommodate the proposed development. Zoning Regulation Required Proposed Requested Variance Rear Yard Building 25' 23.1±' 1.9±' Setback A required setback is the required minimum distance a principal building must be located from a lot line, which is unoccupied and unobstructed by any projections of a principal building. The City is including the rear concrete stairs as principal building even though the definition pursuant to the zoning code is not specific. The house footprint is approximately 1,680± sf and complies within all the setbacks, however, the combined footprint and set of stairs exceed the principal building length allowed on the lot, encroaching into the rear yard setback. Given the City's interpretation of the principal building definition to include the stairs, the Applicant is applying for and requesting an area variance. 900 Route 146 Clifton Park, NY 12065 (P)518.371.7621 edpllp.com Area Variance Application 101 Wright Street ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN Bluestar Enterprises,LLC. PARTNERSHIP,LLP. City of Saratoga Springs,New York Shaping the physical environment 4.1 Area Variance Statements 1. Whether the benefit sought by the applicant can be achieved by other feasible means. Identify what alternatives to the variance have been explored (alternative design, attempts to purchase land, etc.) and why they are not feasible. The proposed exterior concrete stairs are essential for providing safe and functional access from the rear of the home to the yard. Since the existing structure has already been built, alternative designs— such as reducing the stair size or repositioning it are not feasible without extensive structural modifications that would be impractical, costly, and non-compliant with the NYS residential building code, given that the finished floor elevation is approximately three feet above the existing grade. Notably, the area variance request applies only to a portion of the last two steps, which are the only parts of the staircase encroaching into the rear yard setback. In this location, the stair height ranges from approximately 6 to 12+ inches above ground. Additionally, acquiring additional land to offset the variance is not a viable option for such a minor request. The variance is the only practical solution to ensure safe access to the rear of the property in compliance with NYS residential building code while preserving the integrity of the existing construction. 2. Whether granting the variance will produce an undesirable change in the character of the neighborhood or detriment to nearby properties. Granting the variance will not create a detriment to nearby properties or an undesirable change in the neighborhood character for the following reasons: Granting the variance will not produce an undesirable change in the character of the neighborhood or create a detriment to nearby properties for the following reasons: a. The proposed stairs encroach into the rear yard setback by only 1.9 feet, representing a 7.6% variance from the required 25-foot setback. This minimal encroachment is located at the rear of the property and is out of view from the street, ensuring that it will not significantly alter the visual character or use of the property, nor adversely affect the neighbors. The Stairs are just over 2 feet tall and 3 feet wide. b. The surrounding neighborhood features a mix of residential and commercial properties, including track-related facilities, which already exhibit a variety of structures and setbacks. The proposed encroachment is consistent with the diversity of property configurations in the area. c. The stairs improve access to the rear yard, enhancing the functionality of the property while having no negative impact on neighboring properties or their use. 3. Whether the variance is substantial. The requested variance is not substantial because: The requested variance is not substantial because: The encroachment is minimal, extending only 1.9 feet into the 25-foot rear yard setback, representing a variance of just 7.6%. This slight deviation does not compromise the overall intent of the zoning regulation or the functional use of the property. Furthermore, the affected portion of the stairs is relatively low in height, with the variance request applying only to approximately the last two steps, which are around one foot high as they begin to extend into the rear yard setback. a. The stairs are located at the rear of the property, where it has little to no visual impact on neighboring properties or the character of the neighborhood. 900 Route 146 Clifton Park, NY 12065 (P)518.371.7621 edpllp.com Area Variance Application 101 Wright Street ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN Bluestar Enterprises,LLC. PARTNERSHIP,LLP. City of Saratoga Springs,New York Shaping the physical environment b. The variance request is directly tied to the existing conditions of the property, including the existing structure, and represents the only feasible solution to provide safe access to the rear yard based upon NYS residential building code. 4. Whether the variance will have adverse physical or environmental effects on neighborhood or district. The requested variance will not have an adverse physical or environmental effect on the neighborhood or district for the following reasons.- The requested variance will not have an adverse physical or environmental effect on the neighborhood or district for the following reasons: a. The proposed stairs are located at the rear of the property and does not interfere with any natural features or environmentally sensitive areas, such as wetlands or trees. b. The encroachment into the rear yard is minimal and not visibly disturbing since it is very low off the ground and it will not affect drainage, water runoff, or other environmental factors that could negatively impact neighboring properties or the broader district. c. The stairs will not increase the impervious surface area of the lot or negatively affect stormwater management, as it is a minor addition with no substantial physical impact on the environment. D.

Granting the variance will not create an undesirable change in the neighborhood or negatively impact adjacent properties,as the staircase is at the rear of the home and minimally visible.The encroachment is minor,does not impact drainage or the environment,and is consistent with surrounding land uses.Given the existing conditions,no feasible alternatives exist without significant structural modifications,making this variance the most practical solution.
