Thanks to our members, we have a very active Facebook page that is often a great spot for posting articles of interest related to planning, smart growth, open space conservation and other issues important to SAVE Colonie.

Every once in a while we come across a blog, article our journal that we think is very good, and we want to start using our blog to highlight these works so that they are archived here on our website also where they may be easier to find.

Below is a fine piece on planning for communities so that they are more friendly for “aging in place.” There is such a glut of “senior” construction taking place and proposed in Colonie now, this article is especially relevant to the discussion about planning in our town.

Happy reading:
