Project Name Park Place & Cottage Street Site Plan Project Number 20250203 Project Address Park Place & Cottagw Comments I am writing to express my strong support for the Park Place and Cottage Street, proposed 6-unit condominium development in downtown Saratoga. This thoughtfully designed project is not only architecturally beautiful, but also aligned with the city’s vision for smart, sustainable growth. The proposed location is currently a vacant lot, and transforming it into high-quality residential housing will enhance the vibrancy and economic value of the area.

Additionally, this project respects existing zoning regulations and integrates seamlessly into the character and charm of downtown Saratoga. It promotes responsible development by utilizing a space that is already designated for this type of use, rather than pushing development into less appropriate or more environmentally sensitive areas. I understand that some neighbors have expressed concerns, but I believe this project presents more benefits than drawbacks. It brings economic vitality, architectural beauty, and thoughtful growth to our community—without overburdening resources or altering the historic character of the neighborhood. I hope the Board will approve this project and support its positive impact on Saratoga Springs.
