  • The board at its March 4 meeting unanimously approved the project as well as a variance request from the town zoning code that would require the new structures to be set back 100 feet from the single-family lots on either side of the property. 

  • The town’s planner, Kenneth Kovalchik, recommended the PUD, citing ways in which the proposal follows recommendations of Guilderland’s recently updated comprehensive plan. Three people objecting to the proposal also cited the new comprehensive plan as they stated the importance of preserving the globally rare pine bush.

  • After the meeting ended, the board’s president summed up for The Enterprise what she sees as the board’s view: “As a group, we believe what was presented to us was not balanced or equitable for our students,” she said. “We would like something absent student-facing recommendations and considering other ways.” Asked what those cuts might be, she said, “Administration.”
