SYRACUSE — Charles Ciaccio was a quiet and kind person, someone who was gracious and intelligent, said his daughter Karen Cornelius. “He was always there for everybody; just a really sweet person.”

Mr. Ciaccio died on April 26, 2021, at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Syracuse. He was 95.  

First proposed in 2019, Spruce Plaza, a 1.82-acre site directly across Route 20 from Guilderland Town Hall, would be a mixed-use development consisting of professional offices, restaurants, and apartments.

A paperwork snafu held up the approval of a new tattoo shop in Altamont Corners while the village planning board told the owner of Curry Patta restaurant, also located in the plaza, it needed additional information about a cigar and hookah area she wants to have on the deck expansion it approved last month.
