Cynthia Elliott doesn’t mind another month’s delay on her 2015 application to have a venue for parties on her Brownrigg Road property, saying, “ I want the board to have an opportunity to reach their best decision.”

As a first step, Pyramid, which owns Crossgates, went before the Guilderland Planning Board Wednesday with a request to rezone 12.7 acres between the entrance and Gabriel Terrace.

A 14-member comprehensive land-use committee, developing the village’s first master plan, is is to have its work completed within 10 months.

At a raucous meeting, the Knox Town Board agreed unanimously to hold a hearing on five potential new business districts, overriding a planning board recommendation.

Zoning board alternate Stuart Reese is a retired math teacher, while new member of the Guilderland Board of Assessment Review David Payton worked for the State Education Department.

One of three assisted-living facilities that may soon come to Guilderland now goes back to the town’s planning board to work out any remaining issues with the site plan.

Cumberland Farms hopes to build a second convenience store and gas station in Guilderland.

A town that wants to guard its rural character seems to be of two minds about whether to create additional business districts within its borders.

One of the larger historical homes in Guilderland has been rezoned from single-family residential to business non-retail professional, to help the owners, who have been trying to sell it for years, find a buyer.

Faced with two controversial planning issues this year that brought crowds to village board meetings, Voorheesville now has a 14-member committee that is working on a comprehensive land-use plan, which the village board hopes will be completed within a year.
