There is an Explosion of Growth
Going on in Guilderland Right Now.
Together We Can Do Something About It!

Guilderland Coalition for Responsible Growth (GCRG) is concerned with the speed and lack of transparency
of the approval process for an explosion of massive new development projects proposed throughout the Town.
GCRG was formed to represent the residents’ rightful voice at every step of these new development proposals.

 

 

GCRG USUALLY MEETS THE 1ST AND 3RD MONDAYS OF THE MONTH AT 7:00 PM
 

Our next meeting will be held on Monday, October 21, 2024 at 7:00 p.m. Virtually

We hope that you will join us!  We want to hear what our residents have to say, hear their ideas, their concerns, what can we all do better.

 

There will also be a review by the Town Board in October and a Public Hearing as well.  Please stay tuned for more info!

Please note- the Comprehensive Plan Draft is now up on the town website.  Please take the time to review and if you have questions, concerns or want answers, please ask! You can see the Comp Plan here:
