The Community Development department is hosting “Breakfast with Planners” on October 12 from 8:30 - 10 AM at Talons Cove reception center (2220 S Talons Cove Dr). This is an opportunity for residents and interested parties to learn about topics related to Planning and development in our rapidly growing city and is offered periodically throughout the year. An introductory discussion will be followed by two breakout sessions on different topics. Breakout sessions will repeat, so you can attend just one, or stay and attend both. Opening October’s event will be an interactive “Ask a Planner” session. Bring your questions about development and land use in Saratoga Springs. Subsequent breakout sessions feature information on 1) basement rentals (IADU), and 2) development of a “downtown” area in our City.  

IADUs - If you want to know more about the code regulating IADUs (internal accessory dwelling units, aka basement apartments), this breakout session is for you. Find out where IADUs are allowed and what other requirements apply.

Future Downtown - Our community has a unique opportunity to plan for a downtown that will provide a sense of place and a framework for development. We are excited for this opportunity to develop a strategic plan for the undeveloped area that is west of Fat Cats. We are in the early stages of developing the strategic plan and will have our consultant, MHTN, available to update you and answer questions you may have.

We hope you’ll join us for a light breakfast and this opportunity to meet informally with City staff. You’ll leave better informed and more involved in our community.
