Enterprise — Michael Koff

1975 Western Ave., once known as Westlawn Lanes, is seeking a special-use permit for a change of use from a bowling alley to a local shopping center. The application was OK’d by the Albany County Planning Board on Sept. 16. The proposal has yet to come before any Guilderland town boards.

  • Jason Kenyon called The Enterprise because of concerns about losing his home but the story he told was about more than that — it was about how two friends on a warm April night got into a fight leading to dire consequences.

  • Jeff Thomas was told his proposed Altamont village center development would need multiple variances to gain approval, but he appears to be challenging the parking requirement because, as Thomas sees it, the village’s math is incorrect. 

  • Barber said only a half-dozen or so tax certiorari cases remain carried over from Guilderland’s townwide revaluation six or seven years ago. “If the board approves them,” said Barber before the two unanimous votes, “then they can’t challenge the assessment for three years.”
