Schuyler
House Candlelight Tour
The SLA will
conduct their next meeting at 7:00 pm
on October 27th at Panza’s Restaurant. The City of Saratoga
Springs has recently proposed amending their “Ordinance for Water Course
Protection.” This will need to be
closely monitored as it may impact uses and procedures within the Town of
Saratoga. There is increasing concern
that the City of Saratoga Springs will again pursue using Saratoga Lake as a
source of municipal water. We must take
action to prevent this from occurring.
Again all town residents living along Saratoga Lake are reminded to
complete the Saratoga Lake Water System Connection Survey Form. Even though the set date for submission has
passed it is not too late. In order for
the town to receive state approval for the extension of the waterline, there
must be evidence of a substantial interest on the part of the perspective users. It is critical that all Town residents along
Saratoga Lake complete the form and send it in to The Saratoga Glen Hollow
Water Supply Corporation, 90 Campbell Road, Schenectady, NY 12306. Copies of this form are on the town web page www.townofsaratoga.com and may be
downloaded. In addition, copies are
available at the town hall and from the SLA.
The official website of the association is www.saratogalake.org. This site is a source of detailed
information about events and activities taking place at the lake.
