Ballston Spa Seeking Public Input For “Revitalize Ballston Spa” Strategic Redevelopment Study

BALLSTON SPA — The Village of Ballston Spa has commenced “Revitalize Ballston Spa,” an effort to attract investment and funding opportunities by developing a comprehensive vision for the Village’s future. 

The process will develop a community vision, identify strategic sites for redevelopment, and establish an implementation strategy. The project is kicking off with a Visioning Survey to gather feedback from community members. 

Revitalize Ballston Spa is a 12-month planning process focused on identifying challenges and opportunities for downtown revitalization and site-specific strategies to further renewal in the Village. The plan is funded through a grant secured by former Mayor Larry Woolbright from the NYS Department of State Brownfield Opportunity Area (BOA) grant program. 

LaBella Associates will act as consultants to guide the planning process and facilitate community engagement. A Steering Committee of community members was formed to provide local input on all elements of the plan and planning process.

Community members will have many opportunities and avenues to participate in the Revitalize Ballston Spa process over the next year. For more background information on the BOA program and the planning process, please visit www.revitalizebspa.com.
