Sportsplex

The new $4 million dollar sports fields that were proposed to be built next door to the Eagle Crest Golf won't happen. After months of back and forth between the owners, the Clifton Park Town Planning Board, and residents, it looks as if it will not be built. Well, not in that location anyway.

Plans to build a sports complex both indoor and outside in Clifton Park are not settling well with residents in that area. In a Town Board meeting on Monday, many people who oppose the idea said it is too close to a conservation-residential zoning area.

A lot of soccer families were very disappointed about the decision but there was nothing Paul Rogan, the owner of Sportsplex could do because the building had been sold. It was also the height of COVID and they couldn't stay open because of CDC protocols. It was a tough decision but it had to be made. Now they are coming back but in a different location.
