SARATOGA SPRINGS — A final draft document of the UDO was presented to the City Council this week. 

The UDO - a Unified Development Ordinance - is a tool combining traditional zoning and subdivision regulations, along with other development standards for items such as design guidelines, storm water management, signs and street standards into one, easy-to-read reference document. 

It is intended to eliminate redundant or conflicting code provisions and help streamline the review and approval process. 

The April 19 presentation effectively kicks-off the last phase of the project. Discussions will continue at the next City Council meeting, on May 4, after which advisory opinions will be requested from the city and county Planning Boards and the Design Review Commission. 

Additional public hearings will be scheduled later this year, after which it is anticipated the City Council will vote on the matter. 

The 304-page final draft UDO document is available for view at: saratoga-springs.org.
