Councilwoman Martin reported on the following: Extended Father's Day greetings and reminded residents to enjoy the Independence Day fireworks, noting that the Board would not meet again until after the July 4th holiday. Town Clerk Quinlan reported on the following: Early voting is currently underway at Town Hall, with hours running noon to 9:00 PM on weekdays and 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM on weekends. There will be no primary election for Town of Boston positions on Tuesday, June 23rd. Reminder to residents of the Brinkerhoff Run taking place Saturday, June 20th at 10:00 AM, and advised those needing to travel during that time to plan accordingly by allowing extra time or departing before the 10:00 AM start. Lions Club Chicken Barbecue tickets are still available. Reminder to all drivers to be attentive to increased summer activity on the roads, including cyclists, motorcyclists, and children. Supervisor Keding reported on the following: Update on the three All-Way Stop traffic studies that had been requested through prior Town Board resolutions. Regarding the Zimmerman Road (CR-437) and Mayer Road (CR-471) intersection, Erie County studied the intersection on October 29, 2025, and again on May 19, 2026, after spring vegetation had come into bloom. Warrants for an all-way stop were not met. The term "all-way stop" is Erie County's standard terminology for such studies and does not predetermine the outcome. Erie County's recommendation is to replace the existing 30-inch stop sign with a 36-inch stop sign featuring reflective red stripes, add a second stop sign on the opposing side of the roadway, and relocate stop ahead warning signs with yellow reflective post stripe covers closer to the intersection. Regarding the Zimmerman Road (CR-437) and Rice Road (CR-233) intersection, the same study protocol was followed with studies conducted in October 2025 and May 2026. Erie County similarly recommended the installation of 36-inch stop signs and the placement of stop ahead warning signs with yellow reflective post stripe covers on Rice Road for westbound traffic approaching the intersection. The third outstanding study, for the Feddick Road and Rice Road intersection — requested following a resident's appearance before the Board — remains pending, and the Board will report back upon receiving Erie County's findings.
