Re: SCPB Referral Review #24-A-49 - Subdivision Review - 25 New Street
A proposed redevelopment of 5.18-acre lot into a subdivision with 18 residential lots (36 units) , one
open space lot and a road turn around parcel. Each lot will be serviced by a proposed dedicated city
road. A parcel also owned by the applicant may provide an open space buffer.
Location: New Street (NYS Rt 50)
Tax Map #: 178.-4-25
Zoning: T-5/NC
Received from the City of Saratoga Springs Planning Board on October 10, 2025.
Reviewed by the Saratoga County Planning Board on November 20, 2025.
Decision: No Significant County-wide or Intercommunity Impact
Comments: The Saratoga County Planning Board reviewed the provided material for request additional
information from previously reviewed in October 2024. The requested information of a secondary
access point has been satisfied with the easement from Aletta Road. The addition of the turn around at
the northern end will provide ease of traffic flow. The fire department should verify that fire truck
movement can be accommodated.
It was not clear if the parcel to the north will still be a part of the project as a recreational area or an
untouched buffer. Also, the playground and dog park did not have on street parking on the plans. It was
not clear if these two amenities will be available to the public or not. The Planning Board may consider
an additional connection to Railroad Run Trail, potentially opposite the Joseph Steet connection.
Please contact the Saratoga County Planning Board if you have any questions regarding this matter.
Sincerely,
