TIMING IS RIPE FOR A POTSDAM HOTEL PROJECT, CHIEF PLANNER SAYS—Fred Hanss, Village Planning and Development Director told 99 News in an interview yesterday the Consolidated Funding Application process, the new method by Empire State Development that allows agencies to apply for funding from numerous state agencies with one standard document, should make it easier for a hotel or motel developer to seek public funds to help them mount a project. Those kinds of uses are eligible for Federal HUD Community Development Block Grants though the Governor's Office for Small Cities. The Potsdam Commerce Park allows for a hotel or motel, through a 2010 schedule change in Business-Light Industrial zoning. The former Potsdam Feed and Coal property, dubbed the “Sandstone Dive Redevelopment Area” after it was cleared of contaminants about 10 years ago has been eyed by hotel developers. Plans for projects on both sites are competing with each other.
