Terramor is seeking a Special Use Permit from the town of Saugerties for a proposed Glamping Resort in a neighborhood community. Located along NYS Route 212 between South Peak Veterinary Hospital and Glasco Turnpike, the 77-acre resort is designed for up to 270 visitors per day and will endanger over 9 acres of wetlands. Many of the 90 proposed structures are planned within 100 feet of the border of private residences in a Medium-Density designated area.
