Unitarian Universal Congregation of Saratoga Springs Eyes New Church Location

Proposal submitted to the city for a new house of worship by Unitarian Universal Congregation of Saratoga Springs to be developed on Louden Road.

SARATOGA SPRINGS — The city Planning Board is considering a proposal of a new church for the Unitarian Universal Congregation of Saratoga Springs that would be sited at 400 Louden Road.

UUCSS is currently under contract to purchase just over 5 acres on Louden Road for the construction of the new church. Just over three of those acres are in “conservancy “ – not allowing for development – leaving about 1.93 acres of currently vacant land where the proposed two-story, 8,840 square foot church would be developed.

The primary development area is located in Saratoga Springs with the road frontage being in the town of Wilton. The proposal also includes parking availability for 64 cars.

The church employs one full-time minister and three part-time staff, and the congregation currently consists of approximately 125 parishioners.
