Project Updates
The applicant was asked by the board to discuss ways to address traffic concerns and
neighborhood impact.
We met with the Deputy Commissioner of Public Safety and the Mayor. As a result of those
meetings the police traffic enforcement team has added the Beagle School to their list of
schools to monitor in Saratoga Springs. During their first visit the team gave out 7 tickets for
speeding and took back with them to the safety department the need for improved
school zone signage within the ROW on Regent Street. A City traffic study was discussed
and use traffic counters.
County planning board sent a letter indicating no impact for this project.

Special Use Permit – Modification
Special Use Permit modification request to expand and existing use and utilize the second
floor for a classroom.
1.This is consistent with current uses permitted with the Zoning Code and
Comprehensive Plan.
2.The expanded use onto the second floor will have no effect on public health, safety,
or welfare.
3.The intensity of the use will increase but the neighborhood can sustain the increase in
traffic during the drop-off and pick-up hours.
4.The current patterns will not be effect for pedestrians or vehicular access and
circulation. Parking agreement with the nearby church should address any concerns
for needed parking.
5.The infrastructure demand on existing systems should not be affected.
6.The impacts to natural and environmental resources are minimal as the addition and
modifications have been minimized.
