0.5%
  • Street lighting district costs

  The Town of Boston partnered with NYSEG to
  replace existing street lighting with energy
  efficient LED Lighting back in 2019.

  This program regulated usage and initially
  saved taxpayers money while saving energy
  and reducing greenhouse gases.

  The Town of Boston has further partnered
  with NYMEP to reduce supplier charges
  on Town electric bills, doing a rate
  comparison every 1-3 years
