Community Meeting: Marshall Lane Subdivision Application

The City of Saratoga will host a virtual community meeting on Tuesday, June 15 at 5:00 p.m. to discuss an application for a subdivision on Marshall Lane. The application is to subdivide a 9.8-acre parcel located at 18500 and 18520 Marshall Lane into 9 lots ranging from approximately 40,000 square feet to 51,000 square feet. A new private road off Marshall Lane would be constructed to access the lots. If the subdivision is approved, it will allow construction of 9 single-family homes and a private road off Marshall Lane to access the homes. The Project Applicant, Dutchints Development, LLC, will share information about their application, and the community can ask questions.

Find instructions for how to participate in the virtual meeting on the City website. 

Housing Element Survey & Community Meetings

Saratoga is required to update its General Plan Housing Element to plan for over 1,700 new homes to be built in Saratoga between 2023 and 2031 at all income levels. Please take the City's housing survey to help us gain a better understanding of community values and priorities related to housing. The results of this survey will be used as the foundation for future conversations with the Planning Commission and City Council about possible solutions and strategies.

On June 10, the City held its first of the June community meetings on the Housing Element. The next two meetings will occur on Tuesday, June 15 at 7:00 p.m. and Saturday, June 26 at 9:00 a.m. Meeting access details are available on the City website at www.saratoga.ca.us/housing. The meetings have been scheduled on different days and times to accommodate different preferences and schedules. The content presented at the three meetings will be the same.
