A Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) is a tool which combines 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, help to streamline the review and approval process and clarify the steps and requirements with clear illustrations and language.

Advisory opinions from the DRC, City Planning Board and County Planning Board can be found on the city website, along with other UDO draft documents and maps. Go to: saratoga-springs. org.
