Property Description

Property Description

Located in Cayuga Heights, Ithaca, NY, this planned development (PD) zone enables and guides the development of portions of the RaNic Golf Club property into a compact, walkable, mixed-use community to support the continued operation of the golf course and preserve the park-like open space.

The RaNic Golf Club development proposal is a project that follows traditional neighborhood development (TND) principles. The development envisions a variety of housing types and building configurations, a clubhouse for neighborhood commercial uses, hospitality uses including short-term stays, and a small historic Barn venue space.

A central local street with pedestrian courts and an open space network linking to the Community Corners commercial area aims to weave the public realm of RaNic Golf Club into the fabric of the greater Cayuga Heights village.

RaNic Golf Club is located on a 119.80-acre site with +/-104.46 acres in the Town of Ithaca and +/-15.34 acres in the Village of Cayuga Heights. The project is next to Cornell University campus and within a 5-minute walk of the Community Corners commercial shopping area.

Municipal Approval Process

Municipal Approval Process

In order to build the housing and hotel it requires a Planned Development Zone (PDZ) and Site Plan Approval in both the Village of Cayuga Heights and the Town of Ithaca.

The process to establish the PDZs is underway with the Town of Ithaca being the Lead Agency for the SEQR review process and draft PDZ legislation has been prepared with input from both municipalities.

The Village Trustees and the Town Board Members seem generally in favor of these proposed improvements with the limits established as noted above pending further study of traffic impacts and a more detailed Site Plan Review to be completed by each planning board.
