Cabin colony AV #7-2026: Town ZBA variance path at 3919 Route 9L

The Town of Lake George Zoning Board of Appeals has Area Variance AV #7-2026 on its calendar for a proposed cabin colony at 3919 Route 9L / Bloody Pond Road. The applicant on the agendas is the site’s owner, a private individual. Agent: Studio A Landscape, Architecture, and Engineering D.P.C.

What the agendas describe

Zoning on the Sep 2 agenda: RCH (Residential Commercial High Density); APA land classification Hamlet. Code references: §148-11(H) and §148-11 (I)3 (c)4; SEQRA type Unlisted.

Project description (Sep 2 agenda): construction of a cabin colony including 5 one-bedroom buildings and 20 two-bedroom buildings (arithmetic lodging-building count: 25), plus a 14 ft × 36 ft maintenance building and a 24 ft × 30 ft recreation building. Cabins would be available for short-term rental and tourist accommodation, with open space for outdoor recreation, an asphalt basketball court, and stormwater management. Municipal sewer and water are available at the site.

Variance numbers (agenda only)

The request concerns distance between a waterbody and a stormwater infiltration basin under Town Code §148-11, where 100 ft is required:

• Sep 2, 2026 agenda: 28 ft requested (72 ft variance)
• Oct 7, 2026 agenda: item returning from the September 2nd meeting; revised request 73 ft where 100 ft required (27 ft variance)

What we are not claiming

A separate Lake George Mirror feature (August 19, 2026) profiles an existing cabin-rental operation elsewhere in the area. That Mirror article does not state that AV #7-2026 is an expansion of that business, and Lake George Land does not link the Town applicant to that operation without a primary Town document saying so.

No DEC ENB notice for this entity was identified on the recent-notices landing checked 2026-09-23. No APA application receipt was verified in this pass (agenda lists APA classification Hamlet only).
