Committee advances Code Blue shelter project with SEQR negative declaration and ground‑lease authorization
Summary
The committee reviewed environmental findings and authorized steps to ground‑lease county land at 96–116 Boston Ave to a development corporation that intends to sublease the site to Shelters of Saratoga Inc. for a proposed 25,600‑sq‑ft Code Blue shelter.
Saratoga County’s Law & Finance Committee on April 15 reviewed county staff materials and moved forward on a proposed Code Blue shelter on county‑owned land at 96–116 Boston Avenue in the City of Saratoga Springs.
County staff told the committee the property is approximately 1.37 acres and that the Saratoga County Capital Resource Corporation (SCCRC) intends to ground‑sublease to Shelters of Saratoga Inc. to develop a proposed 25,600 square‑foot Code Blue shelter. The Board sought to issue a negative declaration under the State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQR), concluding the proposed leases and development would not result in significant environmental impacts, and to authorize a ground lease between the county and SCCRC.
Committee members approved the law‑and‑finance slate that includes the SEQR finding and ground‑lease authorization by voice vote. County staff indicated prior review by the County Department of Planning and Economic Development and the County Attorney's Office.
