Applicant proposes a two story 11,900 sf open air tavern/kiddie amusement park at the current location of Quizno's and the miniature golf course. The project will connect to the Village of Lake George municipal sewer and water system. The project proposes minor levels of stormwater management. There have been several public hearings and concerns from the public include mixed use of the project (children entertainment and a bar); two story building on the main corner of the Village; character of the building with the “open air” tavern; noise; and additional traffic for deliveries, construction, and trash removal.

Project Summary
Waterkeeper Perspective
The Waterkeeper has concerns regarding compliance with major stormwater management requirements (addressing runoff of the first ½” from existing impervious coverage); utilizing the proposed landscaped areas for stormwater treatment/rain gardens; improving the proposed water quality structures and the direct discharge into Prospect Mountain Brook. In addition, there is a question regarding the design wastewater flows from the proposed uses as well as whether the existing Village of Lake George Wastewater Treatment Plant has capacity. The Waterkeeper continues to assert the proposed stormwater management plan does not comply with the Village Code despite the recommendation letter from the reviewing engineer based on the fact the reviewing engineer acknowledged the need for additional information regarding the stormwater plan after the recommendation was written. This information was provided to the Planning Board.
