GUILDERLAND — Timothy Lane may soon be developed.

The town’s planning board last Wednesday approved an application by Frank Tralongo to create a four-lot subdivision on 3.3 acres there.

Timothy Lane, in the northeastern part of town, was created when the Lone Pine 7 subdivision was built. Todd Westervelt, of ABD Engineering, told the board that Tralongo plans on building three houses that will face Timothy Lane and a fourth that will face Salvia Lane.

The lots are already vacant, except for the fourth, along Salvia Lane, where some trees will be removed, Westervelt said.

Town planner Jan Weston had concerns that the lots may include wetlands.

An erosion-sedimentation control plan was conducted, Westervelt said. What appears to be wetlands on the site is just soggy land in an isolated pocket, he said.
"There is no federal wetland on the site," he said.

The board then unanimously approved the proposal.
