Ballston Spa Comprehensive Plan Steering Committee Explores Village’s Built Environment

BALLSTON SPA — The Village of Ballston Spa’s Comprehensive Plan Steering Committee will meet twice during the month of February to review and discuss the built environment of the village. The meetings will be held on the first and third Thursdays of the month, Feb. 3 and Feb. 17, at 7 p.m. at the Saratoga County Office Building at 50 West High St., Ballston Spa. 

The discussions will touch on several topics, such as reviewing the range of styles and time periods of existing buildings and how they relate to living, visiting and investing in the village, what aspects contribute to the perception of Ballston Spa and how the village character can be maintained while also allowing for new structures.  Zoning enforcement, downtown building heights and design standards, teardowns and compatibility of new structures with existing ones will be examined. 

The Comprehensive Plan Steering Committee has been formed to work in conjunction with a professional planning consultant to identify and study several topics over the course of the next year in order to create a final plan for approval by the Village board of trustees. All meetings are open to the public either by in-person attendance or via Zoom. A Zoom link will be available prior to each meeting at villageofballstonspa.org/comprehensive-plan-steering-committee.
