Guilderland Planning Board will meet on April 22

GUILDERLAND — The town’s planning board will meet at the town hall on April 22 at 7 p.m.

 Members of the public may listen and view the meeting live on Verizon channel 34 and Spectrum channel 1303, on the town website, and may dial 518-579-3721 to participate in a conference call. This is following the governor’s executive orders, allowing board meetings as long as the public can watch.

Several projects will be considered:

— Bottisti, Staats & Messere’s two-lot minor subdivision at 300 Prout Lane;

— Gleason’s three-lot minor subdivision at 6630 Fuller Station Road; and

— Stor-Away at Western Avene, a self-storage facility at 2501 and 2505 Western Ave.
