• Ambulance Fund—this is used to record all revenues and expenditures related to emergency
medical services within the Town. Major sources of revenue for the Ambulance Fund are real
property taxes and sales tax.
• Garbage and Refuse Fund—this is used to record all activity related to the garbage pickup and
recycling within the Town. The principal source of revenue for the Garbage and Refuse Fund is
real property taxes.
• Lighting Fund—this is used to record the revenues and expenditures related to lighting
maintenance in the Town’s lighting districts. The principal source of revenue for the Lighting
Fund is real property taxes.
• Fire Protection Fund—this is used to record the revenues and expenditures related to fire
protection in the Town. The principal source of revenue for the Fire Protection Fund is real
property taxes.
• Capital Projects Fund—this is used to account for financial resources to be used for the
acquisition and construction of major capital assets.
During the course of operations the Town has activity between funds for various purposes. Any
residual balances outstanding at year-end are reported as due from/to other funds and advances
to/from other funds.
Further, certain activity occurs during the year involving transfers of resources between funds. In the
AFR these amounts are reported at gross amounts as transfers in/out.
Fiduciary Funds – Fiduciary funds are those used to account for assets held by the local government
in a trustee or custodial capacity. The Town reported the following fiduciary fund:
• Custodial Fund—This is used to record the activity of any escrow accounts entered into by
the town. This fund was established in 2023 due to a large scale solar project and it’s related
escrow agreement. Additionally, in 2024, the Town recorded the turnover of unclaimed
exonerated bail deposits that need to be held for six years after exoneration before the bail
becomes the property of the town.
Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting
The accounting and financial reporting treatment is determined by the applicable measurement focus
and basis of accounting. Measurement focus indicates the type of resources being measured such as
current financial resources or economic resources. The basis of accounting indicates the timing of
transactions or events for recognition in the AFR.
The AFR is reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified
accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and
available. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period
or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the government
considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal
period. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting.
However, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences, and
claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due. General capital asset acquisitions are
reported as expenditures in governmental funds. Issuance of long-term debt and acquisitions under
capital leases are reported as other financing sources.
- 86 -
Page 140
Property taxes, sales taxes, franchise taxes, licenses, and interest associated with the current fiscal
period are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the
current fiscal period. Entitlements are recorded as revenues when all eligibility requirements are met,
including any time requirements, and the amount is received during the period of availability.
Expenditure driven grants are recognized as revenue when the qualifying expenditures have been
incurred and all other eligibility requirements have been met. All other revenue items are considered
to be measurable and available only when cash is received by the Town.
Assets, Liabilities, Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources, and Fund Balances
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments—The Town’s cash, cash equivalents, and investments
consist of cash on hand, demand deposits, time deposits and short-term, highly liquid investments
with original maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition. New York State law
governs the Town’s investment policies. Permissible investments include obligations of the United
States Treasury, United States Agencies, repurchase agreements and obligations of New York State or
its localities.
Restricted Investments—The Town’s restricted investments consist of annuity contracts related to the
Town’s Length of Service Award Programs (“LOSAPs”) and investments in New York Cooperative
Liquid Assets Securities System (“NYCLASS”) for amounts that support fund balance restrictions
and amounts with constraints placed on their use by either external parties and/or statute. The Town
records investments at fair value based on quoted market value.
Receivables—Receivables include amounts due from state and federal governments which represent
amounts owed to the Town to reimburse it for expenditures incurred pursuant to state and federally
funded programs. Receivables are recorded and revenues recognized as earned. Allowances are
recorded when appropriate.
Prepaid Items—Certain payments reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are
recorded as prepaid items. The cost of prepaid items is recorded as expenditures when consumed
rather than when purchased.
Capital Assets—Capital assets, which include land, buildings, improvements, equipment, right-to-use
leased equipment, construction in progress, and infrastructure assets, are reported in Schedule K to
the AFR.
Capital assets are defined by the Town as assets with an estimated useful life in excess of one year
and a value equal to or greater than the capitalization thresholds stated below. Such assets are
recorded at historical cost or estimated historical cost, if purchased or constructed. The reported value
excludes normal maintenance and repairs, which are essentially amounts spent in relation to capital
assets that do not increase the capacity or efficiency of the item or increase its estimated useful life.
Donated capital assets are recorded at acquisition value. Major outlays for capital assets and
improvements are capitalized as projects are completed. Right-to-use leased equipment are initially
measured as the amount of the lease liability, adjusted for lease payments made at or before the lease
commencement date, plus certain initial costs and are amortized on a straight-line basis over their
useful lives.
- 87 -
Page 141
Land and construction in progress are not depreciated. The other capital assets of the Town are
depreciated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Capitalization Useful Life
Threshold (years)
Improvements $ 5,000 20
Buildings $ 5,000 40
Machinery and Equipment $ 1,000 3-20
Right-to-use leased equipment $ 5,000 5-20
Infrastructure $ 5,000 20-50
Art and Historical Treasures $ 1,000 3-50
Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources—Deferred outflows of resources represent a consumption
of net position that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow of
resources (expense/expenditure) until then. At December 31, 2025, in Note 6 and Note 7 to the AFR,
the Town discloses a deferred outflow related to pensions. This represents the effect of the net change
in the Town’s proportion of the collective net pension asset or liability, and the difference during the
measurement period between the Town’s contributions and its proportionate share of the total
contribution to the pension systems not included in the pension expense and any contributions to the
pension systems made subsequent to the measurement date.
In addition to liabilities, deferred inflows of resources represent an acquisition of net position that
applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until
that time. At December 31, 2025, in Note 6 and Note 7 to the AFR, the Town discloses a deferred
inflow representing the effect of the net change in the Town’s proportion of the collective net pension
liability and the difference during the measurement periods between the Town’s contributions and its
proportionate share of total contributions to the pension systems not included in pension expense and
it is reported on the government-wide statements. This amount is deferred and recognized as an
inflow of resources in the period that the amounts become available. The Town also recognizes in
Note 10 to the AFR, a lease receivable and associated deferred inflow of resources on the balance
sheet of governmental funds at the commencement of a lease and amortized over the life of the lease.
Fund Balance Flow Assumptions—Sometimes the Town will fund outlays for a particular purpose
from both restricted and unrestricted resources (the total of committed, assigned, and unassigned fund
balance). In order to calculate the amounts to report as restricted, committed, assigned, and
unassigned fund balance in the AFR; a flow assumption must be made about the order in which the
resources are considered to be applied. It is the Town’s policy to consider restricted fund balance to
have been depleted before using any of the components of unrestricted fund balance. Further, when
the components of unrestricted fund balance can be used for the same purpose, committed fund
balance is depleted first, followed by assigned fund balance. Unassigned fund balance is applied last.
Fund Balance Policies—Fund balance of governmental funds is reported in various categories based
on the nature of any limitations requiring the use of resources for specific purposes. The Town itself
can establish limitations on the use of resources through either a commitment (committed fund
balance) or an assignment (assigned fund balance).
The committed fund balance classification includes amounts that can be used only for the specific
purposes determined by a formal action of the Town’s highest level of decision-making authority.
The Town Board is the highest level of decision-making authority for the government that can, by
Town Board resolution prior to the end of the fiscal year, commit fund balance. Once adopted, the
- 88 -
Page 142
limitation imposed by the resolution remains in place until a similar action is taken (the adoption of
another resolution) to remove or revise the limitation.
Amounts in the assigned fund balance classification are intended to be used by the government for
specific purposes but do not meet the criteria to be classified as committed. The Town Board has
authorized the Supervisor to assign fund balance. The Town Board may also assign fund balance as it
does when appropriating fund balance to cover a gap between estimated revenue and appropriations
in the subsequent year’s appropriated budget. Unlike commitments, assignments generally only exist
temporarily. In other words, an additional action does not normally have to be taken for the removal
of an assignment. Conversely, as discussed above, an additional action is essential to either remove or
revise a commitment.
Leases—The Town is contracted with other entities which qualify as lessor and lessee relationships.
The amount within lease receivable includes the lease of the Trooper Barracks building to the State
Troopers. Amounts within the lease liability includes a postage machine and an office printer.
Additional information regarding leases is discussed in Note 10.
Revenues and Expenditures
Property Taxes—The Erie County Legislature prepares the levy in late December of each year and
jointly bills the Town levy and Erie County real property taxes. Property taxes are levied and become
a lien as of January 1 based on assessed property values as of that date.
For 2025, tax payments were due January 1st to March 16th without penalty; March 17th to April 30th
had a 7.5% penalty; and 1.5% additional penalty added each month thereafter.
The tax roll is returned to the Erie County Commissioner of Finance after July 1st at which time all
unpaid taxes and penalties are payable to that office. The Town retains their full tax levies for all
unpaid items that are returned to the County. Thus, the Town is assured of receiving 100% of its tax
levy. The County enforces all liens.
Pensions—The Town is mandated by New York State law to participate in the New York State Local
Employees’ Retirement System (“ERS”). For purposes of measuring the net pension liability,
deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension
expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the defined benefit pension plans, and
changes thereof, have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the respective
defined benefit pension plans. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee
contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with benefit terms. Investments
are reported at fair value. More information regarding pensions is included in Note 6 to the AFR.
Length of Service Awards Program (“LOSAP”)—The Town has adopted a Service Awards Program
for firefighters and ambulance personnel that serve on a volunteer basis. The Program is administered
by an outside agency, with the Town as trustee. More information on the Town’s defined benefit and
contribution plans and the related net pension liability related to LOSAP are included in Notes 7 and
8 to the AFR.
- 89 -
Page 143
Other
Estimates—The preparation of the AFR, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of revenues, expenditures, assets, and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and during the reported period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements—During the year ended December 31, 2025, the
Town implemented GASB Statements No. 103, Financial Reporting Model Improvements; and No.
105, Subsequent Events.
• GASB Statement No. 103 improves key components of the financial reporting model to
enhance its effectiveness in providing information that is essential for decision making and
assessing a government’s accountability, focusing on the Management’s Discussion and
Analysis, reporting of unusual or infrequent items, presentation of Proprietary Fund
Statements and Major Component Units, and providing a single method for budgetary
comparison.
• GASB Statement No. 105 improves the financial reporting requirements for subsequent
events, clarifying the date through which subsequent events shall be reported as well as
differentiating recognized and non-recognized events and establishing specific note
disclosures for non-recognized events.
The implementation of GASB Statements No. 103 and 105 did not have a material impact on the
Town’s financial position or results from operations.
Future Impacts of Accounting Pronouncements—The Town has not completed the process of
evaluating the impact that will result from adopting GASB Statements No. 94, Public-Private and
Public-Public Partnerships and Availability Payment Arrangements; No. 96, Subscription-Based
Information Technology Arrangements; and No. 99, Omnibus 2022, effective for the year ending
December, 31, 2023, and No. 104, Disclosure of Certain Capital Assets, effective for the year ending
December 31, 2026. The Town is, therefore, unable to disclose the impact that adopting GASB
Statements No. 94, 96, 99, and 104 will have on its financial position and results of operations when
such statements are adopted.
Stewardship, Compliance and Accountability – Legal Compliance – Budgets
Legal Compliance—Budgets—The Town follows these procedures in establishing the budgetary data
reflected in the AFR:
• Prior to September 30th, the Town’s Budget Director files a “tentative” budget with the Town
Clerk for the following fiscal year to commence on January 1st. This budget, which includes
appropriations and estimated revenues, is then presented to the full Town Board by October 5th.
• The full Town Board reviews the tentative budget and may adjust before approving a
“preliminary” budget and calling for a public hearing, which is generally held in October.
• Following the public hearing, revisions may again be made by the Town Board before filing an
adopted budget with Erie County by November 20th.
• Formal annual budgetary accounts are employed as a management control device for the General
and Special Revenue Funds
- 90 -
Page 144
• During the fiscal year, the Town Board can legally amend the operating budgets and is
empowered to implement supplemental appropriations. Budget amendments are required for the
departmental budgetary control. All budget amendments and budget transfers require Town
Board approval.
Deficit Fund Balance—The Town’s Capital Projects Fund reported a deficit fund balance of
$2,944,965 at December 31, 2025. The Town anticipates this deficit will be remedied through future
issuance of long-term debt.
2. CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND INVESTMENTS
The Town’s investment policies are governed by State statutes. Town monies must be deposited in
FDIC-insured commercial banks or trust companies located within New York State. The Town is
authorized to use demand accounts and certificates of deposit. Permissible investments include
obligations of the U.S. Treasury and U.S. Agencies, repurchase agreements, and obligations of New
York State or its localities.
Collateral is required for demand deposit accounts, time deposit accounts and certificates of deposit at
100% of all deposits not covered by Federal deposit insurance. The Town has entered into custodial
agreements with the various banks which hold their deposits. These agreements authorize the
obligation that may be pledged as collateral. Obligations that may be pledged as collateral are
outlined in Chapter 623 of the laws of the State of New York.
Total cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2025, are shown below:
Governmental
Funds
Petty Cash (uncollateralized) $ 500
Deposits 2,094,274
Total $ 2,094,774
Deposits—All deposits are carried at fair value, and are classified by custodial credit risk at
December 31, 2025 as follows:
Carrying Amount
Insured (FDIC) $ 250,000
Uninsured:
Collateral held by bank's
agent in the Town's name 1,844,274
Total $ 2,094,274
Custodial Credit Risk—Deposits—Custodial credit risk is the risk that in the event of a bank failure,
the Town’s deposits may not be returned to it. As noted above, by State statute all deposits in excess of
FDIC insurance coverage must be collateralized. At December 31, 2025, the Town’s deposits were
either FDIC insured or collateralized with securities held by the pledging bank’s agent in the Town’s
name.
Interest Rate Risk—Deposits—In accordance with its investment policy, the Town manages
exposures by limiting investments to low risk type investments governed by New York State statute.
- 91 -
Page 145
Investments—The Town holds short term investments in New York Cooperative Liquid Assets
Securities System (NYCLASS) which is a municipality-based investment pool. The portfolio holdings
are collateralized on a pro rata share of the overall collateral. Within the NYCLASS portfolio, U.S.
treasuries are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government, repurchase
agreements are collateralized 102% by either U.S. Treasuries or U.S. Agencies, and bank deposits are
collateralized by Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) Letters of Credit (LOC).
Total investments at December 31, 2025, are shown below:
Governmental
Funds
Investment in Securities $ 2,782,682
Investment in Securities - Special Reserves $ 1,383,264
Total $ 4,165,946
The Town has chosen to invest the funds of all legally created reserve accounts. At December 31, 2025,
the Town reported $1,383,264 in Investment in Securities for Special Reserves relating to fund balance
constraints across the General, Highway, Water, and Ambulance Funds.
Restricted Investments—All investments are reported using a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the
inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy, established by GAAP, requires that entities maximize
the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are presented below:
• Level 1. Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets to which the Town has
access at the measurement date.
• Level 2. Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include:
• Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
• Quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active;
• Observable inputs other than quoted prices for the asset or liability (for example,
interest rates and yield curves); and
• Inputs derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data correlation
or by other means
• Level 3. Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs should be used to
measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available.
The Town’s restricted investments consist of annuity contracts related to the Town’s Length of Service
Award Programs (“LOSAP”), a defined benefit volunteer firefighter award program (See Note 7) and a
defined contribution volunteer ambulance worker program (See Note 8). These annuities are guaranteed
fixed annuities. The interest on each annuity varies but they are all fixed rate with a guaranteed
minimum rate for a specific period.
As of December 31, 2025, the Town has annuity funds that are valued using observable inputs other
than quoted prices and inputs derived from observable market data correlation (level 2 input) in the
amounts of $2,824,524 recorded within the Fire Protection Fund, and $728,827 recorded within the
Ambulance Fund.

6. RETIREMENT SYSTEM PENSION PLAN
Plan Descriptions and Benefits Provided
New York State and Local Employees’ Retirement System (“ERS”)—The Town participates in the
ERS (the “System”). The System provides retirement benefits as well as death and disability benefits.
The net position of the Systems are held in the New York State Common Retirement Fund (the
“Fund”), which was established to hold all assets and record changes in fiduciary net position
allocated to the Systems. The Comptroller of the State of New York serves as the trustee of the Fund
and is the administrative head of the Systems. System benefits are established under the provisions of
the New York State Retirement and Social Security Law (“NYSRSSL”). Once a public employer
elects to participate in the System, the election is irrevocable. The New York State Constitution
provides that pension membership is a contractual relationship and plan benefits cannot be diminished
or impaired. Benefits can be changed for future members only by enactment of a State statute. The
Town also participates in the Public Employees’ Group Life Insurance Plan (“GLIP”), which
provides death benefits in the form of life insurance. ERS is included in the State’s financial report as
a pension trust fund. That report, including information with regard to benefits provided, may be
found at www.osc.state.ny.us/retire/publications/index.php or obtained by writing to the New York
State and Local Retirement System, 110 State Street, Albany, NY 12244.
The ERS is noncontributory, except for employees who joined the ERS after July 27, 1976, who
contribute three percent (3%) of their salary for the first ten years of membership, and employees who
joined on or after January 1, 2010 who generally contribute three percent (3%) to six percent (6%) of
their salary for their entire length of service. In addition, employee contribution rates under ERS Tier
VI vary based on a sliding salary scale. The Comptroller annually certifies the actuarially determined
rates expressly used in computing the employers’ contributions based on salaries paid during the
Systems’ fiscal year ending March 31.
Pension Liabilities, Pension Expense, Deferred Outflows of Resources and Deferred Inflows of
Resources Related to Pensions—At December 31, 2025, the Town reported the following liability for
its proportionate share of the net pension liability for the ERS. The net pension liability was measured
as of March 31, 2025. The total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability (asset) was
determined by an actuarial valuation as of April 1, 2024, with update procedures used to roll forward
the total pension liability to the measurement date. The Town’s proportion of the net pension liability
was based on a projection of the Town’s long-term share of contributions to the System relative to the
projected contributions of all participating members, actuarially determined. This information was
provided by the System in reports provided to the Town.

Actuarial Assumptions—The total pension liability as of the measurement date was determined by
using an actuarial valuation as noted in the table below, with update procedures used to roll forward
the total pension liability to the measurement date. The actuarial valuations used the following
actuarial assumptions presented below:
ERS
Measurement date March 31, 2025
Actuarial valuation date April 1, 2024
Interest rate 5.90%
Salary scale 4.30%
Decrement tables April 1, 2015-
March 31, 2020
Inflation rate 2.9%
Cost-of-living adjustments 1.5%
Demographic assumptions used in the April 1, 2024 actuarial valuation are based on the results of an
actuarial experience study completed April 1, 2020 for the period April 1, 2015 – March 31, 2020.
Annuitant mortality rates are adjusted to incorporate mortality improvements under the Society of
Actuaries’ Scale MP-2021.
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building
block method in which best estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns
net of investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These ranges are
combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates
of return by each the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation. The best
- 96 -

estimates of the arithmetic real rates of return for each major asset class included in the target asset
allocation are summarized below:

Discount Rate—The discount rate used to calculate the total pension liability was 5.9%. The
projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumes that contributions from plan
members will be made at the current contribution rates and that contributions from employers will be
made at statutorily required rates, actuarially determined. Based upon the assumptions, the System’s
fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of
current plan members. Therefore, the long term expected rate of return on pension plan investments
was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.
Sensitivity of the Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability to the Discount Rate
Assumption—The following chart presents the Town’s proportionate share of the net pension liability
calculated using the discount rate of 5.9%, as well as what the Town’s proportionate share of the net
pension liability would be if it were calculated using a discount rate that is one percentage-point
lower (4.9%) or one percentage-point higher (6.9%) than the current assumption.

7. PENSION OBLIGATIONS—FIRE LOSAP
Plan Description—The Town established a defined benefit Length of Service Awards Program
(“LOSAP”) for the active volunteer firefighters of Boston Volunteer Fire Company, North Boston
Volunteer Fire Company, and Patchin Volunteer Fire Company. The Program was established
pursuant to Article 11-A of the NYS General Municipal Law effective January 1, 1992. The Program
provides municipally funded pension-like benefits to facilitate the recruitment and retention of active
volunteer firefighters. The Town is the sponsor of the program and the Program Administrator.
Participation, Vesting and Service Credit—Active volunteer firefighters who have reached the age of
eighteen and who have completed one year of firefighting service are eligible to participate in the
program. A participant acquires a non-forfeitable right to be paid a benefit from the Program after
earning five years of service credit, upon attaining the Entitlement Age, becoming totally and
permanently disabled, or dying while an active volunteer. In general, an active volunteer firefighter
earns service credit for each calendar year after the establishment of the Program in which he or she
accumulates 50 points. Points are granted for attending various activities of the fire company in
accordance with a Point System adopted by the Town in accordance with the General Municipal Law.
Benefits—Participants become eligible to be paid a benefit at the Entitlement Age, which is age 60.
The benefit payable is equal to $20 for each year of service credit earned, up to a maximum of $800
for 40 years of service credit (including any Prior Service Credit). This benefit is paid as a lifetime,
monthly annuity, guaranteed for ten years. The monthly benefit of a participant who remains active
after the entitlement age and earns additional service credit is increased by $20 beginning with the
January 1 payment after the year in which the service credit was earned.
The Program provides a pre-entitlement age death benefit of a lump sum equal to the actuarial present
value of the accrued benefit. If the Participant is an active volunteer firefighter at the time of death
and has earned a year of service credit in at least one of the last three program years, the minimum
death benefit payable is $20,000. If a participant dies after the entitlement age, the beneficiary has the
option to continue receiving the remaining guaranteed monthly payments, if any, or be paid a one-
time lump sum equal to the actuarial present value of the remaining guaranteed payments. The
Program provides a pre-entitlement age disability benefit of a lump sum equal to the actuarial present
value of the accrued benefit.
Contributions—New York State General Municipal Law § 219(d) requires the Town to engage an
actuary to determine the annual amount required to be contributed to the Trust Fund.
Trust Assets—Plan assets are held in trust for the exclusive purpose of providing plan benefits;
however, the Trust is not legally protected from creditors of the Town. As such, the trust assets do not
meet the criteria in paragraph 4 of GASB Statement No. 73.
Participants Covered by the Benefit Terms—At the December 31, 2024 measurement date, the
participants covered by the benefit terms were as follows:
Participants currently receiving benefit payments 92
Inactive participants entitled to but not yet receiving benefit payments 38
Active participants 59
Total 189

9. RISK MANAGEMENT
The Town is exposed to various risks of loss related to damage and destruction of assets, vehicle
liability, injuries to employees, health insurance, workers’ compensation, and unemployment
insurance. The Town purchases commercial insurance to cover such potential risks. There have not
been any settlements which have exceeded commercial insurance coverage in the past three fiscal
years.
The Town purchases insurance for: general property and liability, municipal crime, automobile,
public officials liability, law enforcement liability, contractor’s protective liability, excess catastrophe
liability, inland marine, ground pollution relating to fuel storage tanks, and cyber coverage. General
property is insured at a full replacement cost agreed upon at $14,434,575. General liability insurance
is limited to $1 million per occurrence, with a general aggregate $3 million limit. General liability had
an add on rider for Builder’s Risk at the North Boston shelter valued at $450,000. Municipal crime
coverage ranges from $25,000 to $200,000 per occurrence. Automobile insurance is limited to $1
million per accident. Public Officials Liability, Law Enforcement Liability, and Contractor’s
Protective Liability are all limited to $1 million per occurrence and $2 million in the aggregate.
Excess liability is limited to $1 million per occurrence and $3 million in the aggregate. Inland marine
has various limits for each individually scheduled property and equipment with the largest limit being
$905,100. Fuel storage tanks have a ground pollution liability of $1 million. A separate cyber policy
was added in 2024 with various limits ranging from $50,000 to $1 million per incident.
10. LEASES
Lease Receivable—The Town is a lessor for a noncancellable lease of buildings. The Town
recognizes a lease receivable and a deferred inflow of resources in the government-wide and
governmental fund financial statements. At the commencement of a lease, the Town initially
measures the lease receivable at the present value of payments expected to be received during the
lease term. Subsequently, the lease receivable is reduced by the principal portion of lease payments
received. The deferred inflow of resources is initially measured as the initial amount of the lease
receivable, adjusted for lease payments received at or before the lease commencement date.
Subsequently, the deferred inflow of resources is recognized as revenue over the life of the lease
term.
Key estimates and judgments related to leases include how the Town determines (1) the discount
rate it uses to discount the expected lease receipts to present value, (2) lease term, and (3) lease
receipts.
• The Town uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases.
• The lease terms include the noncancellable period of the lease.
• Lease receipts included in the measurement of the lease receivable is composed of fixed
payments from the lessee.
The Town monitors changes in circumstances that would require a remeasurement of its leases and
will remeasure the lease receivable and deferred inflows of resources if certain changes occur that are
expected to significantly affect the amount of the lease receivable.
As the lessor, the Town recognizes a long-term lease receivable and deferred inflow of resources for
the use of the Trooper Barracks Building by the state police. The lease agreement runs for 20 years
starting December 1, 2009 and ending November 30, 2029 with a five year renewal option beginning
on December 1, 2029 and ending November 30, 2034. The agreement states that the remaining
monthly payments will be $8,247 per month through November 30, 2029, and then if the renewal is
- 104 -
Page 158
granted, the additional five-year term will be negotiated at the time of the renewal request. As the
Town built this building as part of the lease agreement, to the specifications agreed upon with the
lessee, the Town reasonably expects the lease agreement to be renewed and thus includes the five-
year renewal as part of the lease term. The discount rate applied to this lease is 3.5% as determined
by the bond issued to finance the construction of the building. The value of the lease receivable as of
December 31, 2025 is $649,300. The value of the deferred inflow of resources is $503,222 at
December 31, 2025.
The future payments included in the measurement of the lease receivable at December 31, 2025 were
as follows:
Fiscal Year
Ending
December 31, Principal Interest Total
2026 $ 63,852 $ 35,112 $ 98,964
2027 66,123 32,841 98,964
2028 68,474 30,490 98,964

2030 73,432 25,532 98,964
2030 and thereafter 306,510 72,852 379,362
$ 649,300 $ 224,882 $ 874,182
Lease Payable—The Town is a lessee for a noncancellable lease of various equipment. The town
recognizes a liability and an intangible right-to-use asset (lease asset) in the government-wide
financial statements. The Town recognizes lease liabilities with an initial, individual value of $5,000
or more. At the commencement of a lease, the Town initially measures the lease liability at the
present value of payments expected to be made during the lease term. Subsequently, the lease liability
is reduced by the principal portion of lease payments made. The lease asset is initially measured as
the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for lease payments made at or before the lease
commencement date, plus certain initial direct costs. Subsequently, the lease asset is amortized on a
straight-line basis over its useful life.
Key estimates and judgments related to leases include how the Town determines (1) the discount
rate it uses to discount the expected lease payments to present value, (2) lease term, and (3) lease
payments.
• The Town uses the interest rate charged by the lessor as the discount rate. When the interest
rate charged by the lessor is not provided, the Town generally uses its estimated incremental
borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases.
• The lease terms include the noncancellable period of the lease.
• Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are composed of fixed
payments and purchase option price that the Town is reasonably certain to exercise.
The Town monitors changes in circumstances that would require a remeasurement of its leases and
will remeasure the right-to-use asset and liability if certain changes occur that are expected to
significantly affect the amount of the lease liability.
As the lessee, the Town reports lease assets with other capital assets and lease liabilities with long-
term debt on the schedule of long-term liabilities. The Town is lessee for office equipment such as
printers and postage machines.
- 105 -
Page 159
As of December 31, 2025, the value of the lease liability was $4,216. The Town is required to make
annual principal and interest payments on the equipment. The leases have imputed interest rates of
3.5%. The value of the right-to-use lease assets as of the end of the current fiscal year was $22,380
and had accumulated amortization of $18,437 for a net asset value of $3,943.
The future principal and interest payments as of December 31, 2025, were as follows:
Fiscal Year

2026 $ 3,260 $ 87 $ 3,348
2027 956 10 965
2028 - - -
$ 4,216 $ 97 $ 4,313
11. SHORT-TERM DEBT
Liabilities for bond anticipation notes (“BANs”) are generally accounted for in the Capital Projects
Fund. State law requires that BANs issued for capital purposes be converted to long-term obligations
within five years after the original issue date. However, BANs issued for assessable improvement
projects may be renewed for periods equivalent to the life of the permanent financing, provided that
annual reductions of principal are made. A summary of the Town’s short-term debt for the year ended
December 31, 2025 is as follows:
Interest Maturity Balance Balance
Description Rate Date 1/1/2025 Issues Redemptions 12/31/2025
Capital Projects Fund:

Total 3,758,000 - 37,000 3,721,000
12. LONG-TERM LIABILITIES
The Town’s outstanding long-term liabilities reported in Schedule W to the AFR include serial bonds,
lease liabilities, pension liabilities, and compensated absences. Long-term liabilities as of December
31, 2025 aggregated $10,997,164.
The Town’s outstanding indebtedness as of December 31, 2025 aggregated $7,603,850. Of this
amount, $3,382,850 relates to serial bonds issued for the purpose of water supply and distribution and
$500,000 relates to a serial bond issued on the construction of a Trooper Barracks building. All long-
term debts are exempt from the constitutional debt limit other than the $500,000 serial bond which
represents approximately 0.7% of the town’s debt limit. Further, the Trooper Barracks serial bond is
eligible for redemption prior to maturity starting after March 1, 2022 at 100% of the par amount of
the bonds to be redeemed, plus accrued interest to the date of redemption. All bonds payable of the
Town are secured by its general credit and revenue raising powers, as per State statute.
A default will have occurred if the payment of principal or interest are not paid when due and
payable. In the event of a default a provision is made for contract creditors (including the
- 106 -
Page 160
Bondholders) of the Town to enforce payments upon such contracts, if necessary, through court
action, although the present statute limits interest on the amount adjudged due to creditors to nine per
centum per annum from the date due to the date of payment. As a general rule, property and funds of
a municipal corporation serving the public welfare and interest have not been judicially subjected to
execution or attachment to satisfy a judgment, although judicial mandates have been issued to
officials to appropriate and pay judgments out of current funds or the proceeds of a tax levy.
The Town does not hold any lines of credit.
A summary of changes in the Town’s long-term liabilities at December 31, 2025 is presented below:

Serial Bonds—The Town issues general obligation bonds to provide funds for the acquisition,
construction, and renovation of major capital facilities. General obligation bonds have been issued for
governmental activities. General obligation bonds are direct obligations and pledge the full faith and
credit of the Town. These bonds generally are issued as serial bonds with equal amounts of principal
maturing each year with maturities that range from 10 to 38 years.
Principal is paid annually, interest is paid semi-annually; these payments are recorded in the
associated fund, either being General or Water Funds. A summary of additions and payments for the
year ended December 31, 2025, is presented below:

$6,489,644, for its pension liability related to the Fire Length of Service Award Program (LOSAP).
Refer to Note 7 for additional information related to the Town’s pension liability.
Compensated Absences—As explained in Note 1, the Town accrues the value of governmental fund
type compensated absences. The value accrued at December 31, 2025 is $163,013 and relates to sick
time earned each month that carries over at the end of the fiscal year up to the limit of 165 days per
employee. Employees who retire or resign can choose to receive a cash payout for their unused sick
time or roll it towards additional service credit in the New York State Retirement System.
Management estimates that $47,101 is due within one year. Since payments of compensated absences
are dependent upon many factors, timing of future payments is not readily determinable.

13. FUND BALANCE
In the AFR, nonspendable amounts represent net current financial resources that cannot be spent
because they are either not in spendable form or legally or contractually required to be maintained
intact. The Town maintained the following nonspendable fund balance at December 31, 2025:
• Prepaid items—Represents amounts prepaid to the retirement system that are applicable to future
accounting periods. The General Fund and the Highway Fund reported amounts of $31,226 and
$18,229, respectively relating to the retirement system. Further, in 2024, the Town entered into a
Subscription Based IT Agreement for $8,500 but subsequently put the account on hold prior to
implementation. The first payment made will be recognized as an expense in the General Fund
when implementation begins.
In the AFR, restricted fund balances are amounts constrained to specific purposes (such as creditors,
grantors, contributors, or laws and regulations of other governments) through constitutional
provisions or by enabling legislation.
At December 31, 2025, the Town reported the following restricted fund balances:
• Restricted for General Capital Projects—Represents amounts, $407,309, restricted for
the construction of various general fund capital projects.
• Restricted for Tax Stabilization—Represents amounts, $96,580, restricted by the Town
Board in accordance with general municipal law section 6-e to be used for future
unanticipated events.
• Restricted for Highway Equipment—Represents amounts, $330,743, restricted for the
purchase of highway equipment.
• Restricted for Water Debt—Represents amounts, $403,772, restricted for the reduction
of future debt service requirements.
• Restricted for Ambulance Equipment —Represents amounts, $144,860, restricted for the
purchase of ambulance equipment.
- 109 -
Page 163
• Restricted for Fire LOSAP —Represents amounts, $2,824,524, for the administration of
the Town’s Fire LOSAP.
• Restricted for EMS LOSAP —Represents amounts, $728,827, for the administration of
the Town’s Ambulance LOSAP.
In the AFR, commitments are amounts that are subject to a purpose constraint imposed by a formal
action of the Town’s highest level of decision-making authority. As of December 31, 2025 the Town
did not report any commitments.
In the AFR, assignments are not legally required segregations but are segregated for a specific
purpose by the Town. At December 31, 2025, the Town reported the following fund balance
assignments:
Subsequent
Year's Specific Total
Expenditures Use Assigned
General Fund $ 560,702 $ 4,411 $ 565,113
Highway Fund 262,380 775,810 1,038,190
Fire Protection Fund - 166,487 166,487
Lighting Fund 1,377 7,870 9,247
Ambulance Fund - 148,165 148,165
Garbage and Refuse Fund - 238,084 238,084
Water Fund - 736,264 736,264
Total $ 824,459 $ 2,077,091 $ 2,901,550
• Assigned to Subsequent Year’s Expenditures—Represents available fund balance being
appropriated to meet expenditure requirements in the 2026 fiscal year.
• Assigned to Specific Use—Represents fund balance within the special revenue funds that
is assigned for a specific purpose. The assignment’s purpose relates to each fund’s
operations and represents amounts within funds that are not restricted or committed.
Unassigned fund balance represents the residual classification of the government’s General Fund
surplus and Capital Projects Fund deficit.
If the Town must use funds for emergency expenditures the Board shall authorize the Supervisor to
expend funds first from funds classified as nonspendable (if funds become available) then restricted
funds. The use of committed and assigned funds will occur after the exhaustion of available restricted
funds. Finally, if no other fund balances are available, the Town will use unassigned fund balance.
14. ENCUMBRANCES
Encumbrances—Encumbrances are commitments related to unperformed (executory) contracts for
goods or services (i.e., purchase orders, contracts, and commitments). Encumbrance accounting is
utilized to the extent necessary to assure effective budgetary control and accountability and to
facilitate effective cash planning and control. While all appropriations and encumbrances lapse at
year end, valid outstanding encumbrances (those for which performance under the executory contract
is expended in the next year) are re-appropriated and become part of the subsequent year’s budget
pursuant to state regulations.
- 110 -
Page 164
At December 31, 2025, the Town reported the following encumbrances:
• Encumbrance for General Fund Purchases —Represents amounts, $4,411, for the purchase
of a building code design and construction document, radio for the emergency manager and
other small office supplies purchases as agreed upon by board resolution or purchase order.
• Encumbrance for Highway Equipment —Represents amounts, $178,476, for the purchase of
a highway pickup truck with plow and dump box as agreed upon by board resolution.
• Encumbrance for Ambulance Equipment —Represents amounts, $137,664, for the
remaining payments on the purchase of a gas-powered Ambulance as agreed upon by board
resolution.
The Town considers encumbrances significant if they are in excess of $10,000. Significant
encumbrances as of December 31, 2025 are listed below:
Amount
Fund Purpose Encumbered
Highway Highway Pickup Truck with Plow & Dump Box $ 178,476
Total Highway Fund $ 178,476
Ambulance Gas-Powered Ambulance - 2nd half of contract $ 137,664
Total Ambulance Fund $ 137,664
15. INTERFUND ACTIVITY
Interfund receivables and payables are short-term in nature and exist because of temporary advances
or payments made on behalf of other funds. The composition of interfund balances as of December
31, 2025 is as follows:
Interfund
Fund Receivables Payables
Governmental funds:
General Fund $ 28,896 $ -
Capital Projects Fund - 28,896
Total $ 28,896 $ 28,896
The outstanding balances between funds result from payments made on behalf of other funds or
temporary advances. All of these balances are expected to be collected/paid within the subsequent
year.
- 111 -
Page 165
The Town made the following transfers between funds during the year ended December 31, 2025:
Transfers out:
General
Fund Fund
Transfers in:
Capital Projects Fund 487,980
Total $ 487,980
The interfund transfer totaling $487,980 represents funding supplied by the general fund towards
current capital projects.
16. LABOR CONTRACTS
Certain Town employees are represented by one bargaining unit, with the balance governed by Town
Board rules and regulations. The International Operating Engineers Local 17 AFL-CIO bargaining
unit has a current negotiated contract in place through December 31, 2026.
17. CONTINGENCIES
Litigation—The Town is involved in litigation in the ordinary course of its operations. The Town
believes that its ultimate liability, if any, in connection with these matters will not have a material
effect on the Town’s financial condition or results of operations.
Assessments—The Town is a defendant in litigation under Article 7 of the Real Property Tax Law of
the State of New York to review tax assessments. While the Town vigorously defends assessments,
the likelihood of success is on a case by case basis, and is dependent upon various factors including
market values and appraised amounts. No potential amount or potential range of loss is determinable.
However, management believes that level of such potential loss, if any, would be immaterial and no
provisions have been made within the financial statements.
Grants—In the normal course of operations, the Town receives grant funds from various Federal and
State agencies. These grant programs are subject to audit by agents of the granting authority, the
purpose of which is to ensure compliance with conditions precedent to the granting of funds. Any
disallowed expenditures resulting from such audits could become a liability of the governmental
funds. While the amount of any expenditures which may be disallowed cannot be determined at this
time, management expects any amounts to be immaterial.
18. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Management has evaluated subsequent events through April 27, 2026, which is the date the AFR is
available for issuance, and have determined there are no subsequent events that require disclosure in
conformity with the format prescribed by the Office of the State Comptroller of the State of New
York.

Treasury would like to learn about specific projects that recipients consider ‘impact stories.’ These impact stories capture how local
leaders use one-time, direct emergency funds to make lasting change in their communities. They also highlight how receiving the
funds enabled communities to avoid an insuperable crisis, work toward long-term goals while meeting immediate needs, and/or
address the needs of underserved people. These stories may be included in remarks from Treasury officials and/or other resources
that uplift exemplary uses of SLFRF dollars to your recipient peers.
Please use the text box below to share your community’s success stories from your SLFRF projects. Please note that providing
details for an impact story is completely optional.
The Town of Boston used its SLFRF allocation to fund a small water project, replace a park shelter, and make
improvements to the Town Hall in terms of a new generator and replacing the front steps.
Your participation in the State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (SLFRF) program with the U.S. Department of the Treasury
requires submitting a Final Report for program closeout. This closeout phase is crucial for program success and future funding
opportunities. Recipients should carefully review the SLFRF Closeout Resource Materials, the on-screen instructions, and the
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) document available on the SLFRF Homepage (www.treasury.gov/slfrf) before completing the
Final Report.
Once the Final Report is submitted, recipients may not use any remaining award funds, and unspent funds must be returned to
Treasury. Submission of the Final Report includes a certification by the recipient that the recipient is in compliance with the SLFRF
award terms and conditions and that all data and information included in the report are true and correct and do not contain any
materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statements. The Final Report must include the name and contact information of the
authorized official who is certifying the information in this report.
Recipients must maintain records and financial documents sufficient to evidence compliance with sections 602(c) or 603(c) of the
Social Security Act, as applicable, Treasury’s regulations implementing that section, and guidance issued by Treasury regarding the
foregoing. The Treasury Office of Inspector General and the Government Accountability Office, or their authorized representatives,
have the right of access to records (electronic and otherwise) of recipients in order to conduct audits or other investigations. Records
must be maintained by recipients for a period of five (5) years after all funds have been expended or returned to Treasury, whichever
is later.
If you have questions after reviewing the SLFRF closeout resources, you can email [email protected]. Remember that each
recipient is responsible for submitting an accurate Final Report by the deadline, using available information and their own internal
records.
Statement
After reasonable inquiry of people, systems, and other information available to the SLFRF recipient, I certify that (1) the information
provided in this report is accurate and complete and does not contain any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statements; and
(2) the recipient is in compliance with the SLFRF award terms and conditions. I acknowledge that any materially false, fictitious, or
fraudulent statement or representation (or concealment or omission of a material fact) in this submission may be the subject of
criminal prosecution under the False Statements Accountability Act of 1996, as amended, 18 USC 1001, and also may subject me
and the recipient to civil penalties, damages, and administrative remedies for false claims or otherwise (including under 31 USC
3729 et seq.). I am an authorized representative of the SLFRF recipient with authority to make the above certifications and
representations on behalf of the recipient.
By signing this report, I acknowledge in accordance with 31 CFR 35.4(c) that recipients must provide to the Secretary of the
Treasury periodic reports providing detailed accounting of the uses of funds, as applicable, all modifications to a State's or Territory’s
tax revenue sources, as applicable, and such other information as the Secretary may require for the administration of this program.
Page 171
In addition to regular reporting requirements, the Secretary may request other additional information as may be necessary or
appropriate, including as may be necessary to prevent evasions of the requirements of this program. False statements or claims
made to the Secretary may result in criminal, civil, or administrative sanctions, including fines, imprisonment, civil damages and
penalties, debarment from participating in Federal awards or contracts, and/or any other remedy available by law.
The information for the currently signed in user will populate as the Authorizer of this submittal. Only those in a role of Authorized
Representative for Reporting or Authorized Representative on the Submission record will have access to initiate closeout.

Dear Affirmative Action Officer:
Erie County passed a local Fair Housing Law on May 22, 2018. As the Elected Official and/or Affirmative
Action Officer for your municipality, we are sending this letter to inform you of upcoming training
opportunities on the law. Details of the trainings are as follows:
Date: Thursday April 30th, 2026
Time: 10 a.m.
Location: Zoom Webinar
https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/6GnxRsXFTIeObr8It9YvCg
Date: Tuesday May 5th, 2026
Time: 2 p.m.
Location: Zoom Webinar
https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/EajAJg-RRxOQNWHrLGq5JQ
If you recently attended a Fair Housing training for your community, we still encourage you to attend one of
these upcoming trainings to learn about the law and how it effects the community you serve. As you know, in
order for Erie County Consortium municipalities to receive federal Community Development Block Grant
(CDBG) funds from our department for eligible community projects, the Affirmative Action Officer must attend at
least one fair housing training session every three years. The training will be held through zoom. Please use
the above links for the session you plan on attending.
It is important that you attend one of the trainings if you are a newly appointed officer or have not attended a
training in three or more years. If this applies to you but you cannot attend either training listed above, please
contact me to make other arrangements. If you no longer serve as an Affirmative Action Officer, please
notify me so I can update our records.
Best Regards,
Jean Bennett

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Date: April 23, 2026
NYSEG and RG&E Encourage Customers to Call
UDig Before You Dig
Customers can help prevent outages by visiting UDigNY.org or calling 811 before
doing any digging
BINGHAMTON, NY — April 23, 2026 — April is National Safe Digging Month, and NYSEG and RG&E
are reminding DIYers and professional excavators alike to help protect themselves and their
community by contacting UDig NY before beginning any digging, excavation or demolition project.
Anyone planning to dig should submit an underground utility location request to UDig NY by visiting
UDigNY.org or calling 811 before breaking ground. Location requests should be submitted at least two
business days, but no more than ten business days, before excavation.
“Whether it’s a weekend DIY project or a large construction site, notifying UDig NY at least two
business days before digging is critical to helping with our mission of providing safe and reliable
power,” said NYSEG and RG&E CEO Trish Nilsen. “This simple action helps prevent service
interruptions and safeguards the vital infrastructure our communities rely on.”
Accidental damage to underground utilities can result in costly repairs, serious injuries, and service
outages. Striking a buried utility can also create hazardous conditions, such as gas leaks or electrical
faults. Even projects like tree removal, fencing, and landscaping work can pose a threat to safety when
they are done without knowledge of the approximate location of underground utilities.
After submitting a location request, UDig NY processes and transmits the information to its member
facility operators. These operators are responsible for marking the approximate location of any
underground public utilities in the designated dig area. To learn more about submitting a request,
understanding utility mark-outs, and other critical safe digging guidelines, visit UDigNY.org.
“Breaking ground without a location request dramatically increases the risk of hitting a buried utility
line and puts your entire community at risk,” said UDig NY President & CEO Kevin Hopper. “Taking just
a few minutes to visit UDigNY.org or call 811 helps keep everyone safe. This National Safe Digging
Month, we encourage everyone to follow safe digging practices and notify UDig NY before they dig.”

Thank you for the opportunity to propose a turnkey upgrade to the fire alarm system at your
facility. Johnson Controls is pleased to offer a reliable, future-ready solution that enhances
system dependability while minimizing disruption to your facility.
Why This Upgrade Matters
Your existing Simplex 4006 fire alarm panel has reached the end of its supported life cycle.
Manufacturer support and replacement components are no longer available, which significantly
increases the risk of unexpected system failures, emergency fire watches, and costly
unplanned upgrades.
By addressing this now, you avoid operational risk and maintain confidence that your life-safety
system will continue to perform as intended---today and well into the future.
Our Recommended Solution
We recommend replacing the existing panel with a Simplex 4007ES Hybrid Addressable Fire
Alarm System. Designed specifically for efficient upgrades, the 4007ES installs in the same
wall location as your current panel and integrates seamlessly with your existing field devices
and wiring.
This approach delivers immediate reliability while protecting your investment. The 4007ES
platform offers modern features such as an intuitive color touchscreen interface, enhanced
diagnostics, and built-in flexibility to support future system expansion or conversion to full
addressability---without requiring a complete system overhaul.
Scope of Work
Johnson Controls Fire Protection LP will provide all required equipment, materials, and skilled
labor to complete this upgrade. Our scope includes removal of the existing panel, installation of

the new Simplex 4007ES, circuit terminations, system programming, testing, and final
certification in accordance with applicable codes.
As discussed, a Starlink cellular communicator will be provided and will replace the failed
communication device. This configuration will enable full event reporting to the Johnson
Controls Central Station, in addition to the existing general fire alarm and trouble signal
reporting. Web portal access will be provided to allow authorized updates to the notification call
list. Cellular monitoring services will be added to current monitoring agreement at an annual
cost of $180.00. Approx cost savings to customer of $200 monthly to maintain copper phone
lines.
All work will be performed by factory-trained and NICET-certified technicians during standard
business hours. Existing devices and wiring will be reused where possible and are assumed to
be in acceptable working condition. Any additional repairs or enhancements outside the
defined scope can be quoted separately, should they be requested.
Your Advantage with Johnson Controls
This upgrade is designed to be efficient, cost-effective, and low impact---while significantly
improving system reliability and long-term serviceability. With Johnson Controls, you gain a
trusted partner with extensive experience, industry-leading technology, and a clear focus on
protecting people, property, and continuity of operations.

Phase IA Literature Search and Sensitivity Assessment for the proposed Town of Boston
Water System Improvements Phase 2, Town of Boston, Erie County, New York (NYSOPRHP
No. 23PR05087).
SCOPE OF SERVICE
• Review environmental setting of project area (physiography, geology, and soil data).
• Determine expected depth of potential cultural resources from environmental data.
• Conduct historical research and indicate location of project area on topographic
maps, soil survey maps, and historic maps.
• Search the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation
(NYSOPRHP) and New York State Museum (NYSM) files to locate archaeological sites
within 1 mile of the project area. The site file search will also identify historic
properties in or eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places (NR)
and the National Register Eligible listing (NRE).
• Assess archaeological sensitivity of the project area (based on results of site file
search and environmentally sensitive landforms on slopes equal to or less than 12%
that are within 328 feet of permanent water, hydric soils, within or near known
archaeological sites, and locations of standing or demolished historic structures).
• Field reconnaissance (photograph field conditions and prior ground disturbances).
• Map the location of photographs, prior ground disturbances, and any archaeological
features identified during field reconnaissance.
• Utilize data from background research, sensitivity assessment, and field
reconnaissance to determine an appropriate Phase IB subsurface field investigation
methodology, as necessary.
• Prepare Phase IA report and distribute digital copies to the NYSOPRHP, Town of
Boston, and CPL.
COST $4,795 (due upon receipt of invoice)
All archaeological work will be conducted in compliance with the Standards for Cultural
Resource Investigations (NYAC 1994) adopted by the NYSOPRHP. Following completion of
Phase IA research, a Phase IB field investigation may be necessary to determine if any
previously undisturbed cultural resources will be impacted. If necessary, a separate scope
for the Phase IB investigation will be provided based on the archaeological sensitivity. To
authorize the Phase IA investigation, please return a signed copy of the proposal.

TOWN OF BOSTON – RESOLUTION NO. 2026 - 40
CLASSIFYING BOSTON WATER IMPROVEMENT PHASE 2 IN THE TOWN OF
BOSTON AS A TYPE I ACTION, ESTABLISHING LEAD AGENCY AND
DETERMINING THE SIGNIFICANCE OF SUCH ACTION, AND DIRECTING THAT
THE NEGATIVE DECLARATION BE PUBLISHED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SEQRA
WHEREAS, the Town Board of Boston, New York is considering the financing and
construction of improvements for Boston Water District 1, Boston Water District 2. The project
will include the installation and replacement of approximately 31,886 linear feet of 8, 10, and 12-
inch water main (the “project”). These improvements will take place along portions of Boston
State Road (County Road 227), Back Creek Road (County Road 438), Boston Colden Road
(County Road 222), Cole Road (CR 442), Old Orchard Drive, and Lango Road to serve
residential properties and commercial properties. Additionally, a new water main will be
installed along Cole Road and Boston Colden Road to provide a second water source for the
Town water system. Currently, the Town’s water supply is provided by the Erie County Water
Authority; however, the existing infrastructure experiences frequent water main breaks, resulting
in periods during which residents are left without an adequate supply of safe drinking water.
WHEREAS, to aid the Board in determining whether such Project, financing and other
actions of the Board in connection therewith (the “action”) might have a significant effect on the
environment, the Board caused to be prepared an environmental assessment form or similar
information (“EAF”), a copy of which it attached hereto; and
WHEREAS, the Board duly reviewed the EAF and related documents with respect to the
above-referenced project and duly considered the impacts which may be expected to result from
the proposed action with the criteria set forth in the State Environmental Quality Review Act and
the applicable regulations promulgated thereunder (“SEQRA”); and
WHEREAS, the Board determined that the project was a “Type I Action” pursuant to
SEQRA; and
WHEREAS, the Board determined that the project involved one or more involved
agencies, mandating a coordinated review; and
WHEREAS, the Board duly notified the other involved agencies pursuant to 6 NYCRR
617.6(3)(i) and indicated its willingness to be designated Lead Agency status; and
WHEREAS, all of the involved agencies have consented to the Board’s request to be
designated Lead Agency status;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT
RESOLVED, BY THE TOWN BOARD OF BOSTON DECLARES TO BE LEAD
AGENCY FOR THE PROJECT FOR THE PROPOSED ACTION AND THEREFORE
Page 237
RESPONSIBLE FOR DETERMINING WHETHER AN ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
STATEMENT IS REQUIRED IN CONNECTION THEREWITH AND OTHERWISE
COMPLYING WITH THE PROCEDURAL AND SUBSTANTIVE REQUIREMENTS OF
SEQRA;
AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, BY THE TOWN BOARD OF BOSTON, NEW
YORK AS FOLLOWS:
1. Based upon the review by the Board of the EAF and other necessary criteria, the
Board hereby finds and determines that the proposed action is an “Type I Action”
under SEQRA and will result in no significant impacts and therefore, such action
is not one which “may include the potential for at least one significant adverse
environmental impact,” (b) “there will be no significant adverse environmental
impacts,” and (c) no “environmental impact statement” need be prepared, as such
quoted terms are defined in SEQRA. Reasons supporting this determination are
attached hereto and hereby made a part of this resolution for the purposes of
SEQRA. This determination constitutes a negative declaration for purposes of
SEQRA and it has been prepared in accordance with Article 8 of the

1.11 NYS DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION
DEC’s amended Article 24, Freshwater Wetlands Jurisdiction and Classification regulations (6
NYCRR Part 664) went into effect on January 1, 2025.
Portions of New York State regulated freshwater wetlands, and their adjacent areas may be located
in the project area. Although some limited activities are exempt from permitting, most activities
that involve disturbance within a wetland or its 100-foot adjacent area require an Environmental
Conservation Law (ECL) Article 24, Freshwater Wetlands permit from the DEC. Information on
regulated activities within freshwater wetlands and adjacent areas is available on DEC’s website
(see Regulated Activities), which contains examples of regulated activities and those exempt from
wetland permits.
To determine whether the property contains regulated freshwater wetlands, the project sponsor
must submit a request for a Parcel Jurisdictional Determination (Parcel JD). A Parcel JD is a
determination made by DEC whether a property contains regulated freshwater wetlands or adjacent
areas within the parcel boundary. Please use the attached link to request a Parcel JD for the project
site: https://dec.ny.gov/nature/waterbodies/wetlands/freshwater-wetlands-program/freshwater-
wetland-jurisdictional-determination. If you have any problems submitting the Parcel JD request,
please email: [email protected].
Please note, there is an option for people who have hired consultants, and for other environmental
professionals with wetland expertise, to bypass the Albany Parcel Jurisdictional Determination
(JD) and follow the Parcel JD-Consultant Option. Guidance on that process is online (via the above
referenced link). Please note that Region 9 has some information that is required in addition to the
statewide requirements for the Consultant Option (attached). The project sponsor should utilize the
attached Region 9 List of Requirements for their submission. The project sponsor must submit
these requirements to the Region 9 Bureau of Ecosystem Health email address
([email protected]) with a request to utilize the Consultant Option, and a request to schedule a
boundary verification. Please be aware that this option is only to be used to positively confirm
wetland presence on the property. A delineation showing no wetlands would not be acceptable and
would require the standard Jurisdictional Determination Request Form NYS Freshwater Wetlands
Jurisdictional Determination Request Form. If the property contains regulated freshwater wetlands
or adjacent areas, further delineation of the wetland boundaries and a Project Jurisdictional
Determination (Project JD) may be required. A Project JD is a determination made by the regional
DEC office about whether a proposed activity within a parcel containing regulated freshwater
wetlands or adjacent areas requires an Article 24 Freshwater Wetlands permit. Project JD requests
should be sent to the Region 9 Bureau of Ecosystem Health (BEH) at [email protected]. If
regulated freshwater wetlands or adjacent areas are present, all efforts must be made to first avoid
disturbing the wetland and adjacent area. If disturbance to the wetland and/or adjacent area cannot
be avoided, the project sponsor must submit a Freshwater Wetland permit application and obtain a
permit to conduct a regulated activity. In accordance with DEC’s Freshwater Wetlands Permit
Requirements Regulations (6 NYCRR Part 663), the applicant would need to justify the
disturbance, discuss alternatives and minimize impacts as part of the Freshwater Wetlands permit
application. More information on application procedures and permit issuance standards is available
on DEC’s website at: https://dec.ny.gov/regulatory/permits-licenses/waterways-coastlines-
wetlands/freshwater-wetlands#Determine.
Response: We acknowledge the DEC’s comments regarding Article 24 Freshwater Wetlands
regulations. We will comply with the applicable requirements and submit the necessary
requests, determinations, and documentation as needed to confirm wetland jurisdiction and
permitting requirements for the project site.
Page 242
Page 1 of 4
The project area may include federally regulated wetlands based on a review of the National
Wetlands Inventory wetland mapping. The project sponsor should consult with the United States
Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), telephone: 716/879-4330, concerning USACE regulatory
jurisdiction to determine if the project will impact federally regulated wetlands or require any other
approval from that agency. If federal wetlands are involved, USACE may require the project
sponsor to obtain a Section 401 Water Quality Certification (WQC) from NYSDEC. More
information related to this requirement can be found on NYSDEC’s website at
https://dec.ny.gov/nature/waterbodies/wetlands/freshwater-wetlands-program/conserve/federal-
regulatory-programs.
Response: We acknowledge the DEC’s comments regarding the potential presence of
federally regulated wetlands. We will coordinate with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to
confirm federal jurisdiction and will comply with any applicable requirements, including
obtaining any necessary approvals or certifications.
Please note that Eighteen Mile Creek has a water classification and standard of A, pursuant to 6
NYCRR Part 837, Item 252. Therefore, any physical alteration (i.e. Land clearing, filling, drainage
pipe/ditch installation, etc.) to the bed or banks within 500 feet of the stream) will require an
Article 15, Title 5, Protection of Waters Permit from the NYSDEC.
Response: We acknowledge DEC’s comments regarding the classification of Eighteen Mile
Creek and the associated permitting requirements. We will coordinate with NYSDEC and
obtain Article 15, Title 5 Protection of Waters Permit if project activities involve physical
alteration within the regulated area.
Portions of this project are located within Erie County Agricultural District #15. Impacts to the
agricultural district should be considered during the review of this action.
Response: We acknowledge the DEC’s comments regarding the project’s location within Erie
County Agricultural District #15. Potential impacts to the agricultural district will be
considered as part of the SEQR review process. A submission will be provided to NYS Ag &
Markets for their review and approval.
The project site was noted to be located in an archaeologically sensitive area based on information
obtained through the Cultural Resource Information System (CRIS) on the New York State Office
of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation’s (OPRHP) website at https://cris.parks.ny.gov/. As
part of the SEQR process, this concern should be evaluated, unless it can be verified by appropriate
documentation that the site has been significantly disturbed in a way that would destroy potential
artifacts. Please recognize that normal agricultural activities, such as plowing, would not constitute
such land disturbance. If there are any questions regarding this, contact OPRHP (telephone:
518/237-8643).
Response: We acknowledge the DEC’s comments regarding the site’s potential
archaeological sensitivity. As part of the SEQR process, we are currently in the process of
retaining a qualified archaeologist to evaluate this concern and will coordinate with OPRHP
as needed to ensure appropriate review and documentation.

We have reviewed the available information in the New York State Natural Heritage Program
databases on known occurrences of rare or state-listed animals and plants, of significant natural
communities, and other significant habitats. Bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus), a NYS listed
threatened species, was last identified in 2025 in the Town of Boston. For most sites,
comprehensive field surveys have not been conducted. We cannot provide a definitive statement as
to the presence or absence of all rare or state-listed species or significant natural communities. This
information should not be substituted for on-site surveys that may be required for environmental
impact assessment. Depending on the nature of the project and the conditions at the project site,
further information from on-site surveys or other sources may be required to fully assess impacts
on biological resources.
Response: We acknowledge the DEC’s comments regarding biological resources and the
potential presence of rare or state-listed species, including bald eagle. We will consider these
concerns as part of the SEQR review and will undertake further coordination or specific
evaluations, as appropriate, to assess potential impacts and ensure compliance with
applicable requirements.
Since project activities will involve land disturbance of 1 acre or more, the project sponsor, owner
or operator is required to obtain a State Pollutant Discharge Elimination System General Permit for
Stormwater Discharges from Construction Activity (GP-0-25-001). This General Permit requires
the project sponsor, owner or operator to control stormwater runoff according to a Stormwater
Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP), which is to be prepared prior to filing a Notice of Intent (NOI)
and prior to commencement of the project. More information on General Permit GP-0-25-001, as
well as information on how to electronically submit the eNOI form, is available on the NYSDEC’s
website at www.dec.ny.gov/chemical/43133.html. Information on permitting requirements and
preparation of a necessary Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) is available on the
NYSDEC’s website at www.dec.ny.gov/chemical/8468.html.
The Town of Boston is designated as an MS4 community. The project sponsor, owner or operator
of a construction activity that is subject to the requirements of regulated, traditional land use
control MS4 shall have their SWPPP reviewed and accepted by the MS4 community. The "MS4
SWPPP Acceptance” form must be signed by the principal executive officer or ranking elected
official from the MS4 community, or by a duly authorized representative of that person, and
submitted along with the eNOI to receive NYSDEC approval before construction commences.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Katherine Wachter at
[email protected] or 716-851-7165.
Response: We acknowledge DEC’s comments regarding stormwater permitting
requirements. The project will obtain coverage under SPDES General Permit GP-0-25-001,
and a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) is currently being prepared. The
SWPPP is being submitted for review and acceptance by the Town of Boston, including
completion of the required MS4 SWPPP Acceptance Form, and will be filed with the eNOI
prior to the commencement of construction.

Full Environmental Assessment Form Project :
Part 2 - Identification of Potential Project Impacts Date :
Part 2 is to be completed by the lead agency. Part 2 is designed to help the lead agency inventory all potential resources that could
be affected by a proposed project or action. We recognize that the lead agency=s reviewer(s) will not necessarily be environmental
professionals. So, the questions are designed to walk a reviewer through the assessment process by providing a series of questions that
can be answered using the information found in Part 1. To further assist the lead agency in completing Part 2, the form identifies the
most relevant questions in Part 1 that will provide the information needed to answer the Part 2 question. When Part 2 is completed, the
lead agency will have identified the relevant environmental areas that may be impacted by the proposed activity.
If the lead agency is a state agency and the action is in any Coastal Area, complete the Coastal Assessment Form before proceeding
with this assessment.
Tips for completing Part 2:
• Review all of the information provided in Part 1.
• Review any application, maps, supporting materials and the Full EAF Workbook.
• Answer each of the 18 questions in Part 2.
• If you answer “Yes” to a numbered question, please complete all the questions that follow in that section.
• If you answer “No” to a numbered question, move on to the next numbered question.
• Check appropriate column to indicate the anticipated size of the impact.
• Proposed projects that would exceed a numeric threshold contained in a question should result in the reviewing agency
checking the box “Moderate to large impact may occur.”
• The reviewer is not expected to be an expert in environmental analysis.
• If you are not sure or undecided about the size of an impact, it may help to review the sub-questions for the general
question and consult the workbook.
• When answering a question consider all components of the proposed activity, that is, the Awhole action@.
• Consider the possibility for long-term and cumulative impacts as well as direct impacts.
• Answer the question in a reasonable manner considering the scale and context of the project.

Full Environmental Assessment Form
Part 3 - Evaluation of the Magnitude and Importance of Project Impacts
and
Determination of Significance
Part 3 provides the reasons in support of the determination of significance. The lead agency must complete Part 3 for every question
in Part 2 where the impact has been identified as potentially moderate to large or where there is a need to explain why a particular
element of the proposed action will not, or may, result in a significant adverse environmental impact.
Based on the analysis in Part 3, the lead agency must decide whether to require an environmental impact statement to further assess
the proposed action or whether available information is sufficient for the lead agency to conclude that the proposed action will not
have a significant adverse environmental impact. By completing the certification on the next page, the lead agency can complete its
determination of significance.
Reasons Supporting This Determination:
To complete this section:
• Identify the impact based on the Part 2 responses and describe its magnitude. Magnitude considers factors such as severity,
size or extent of an impact.
• Assess the importance of the impact. Importance relates to the geographic scope, duration, probability of the impact
occurring, number of people affected by the impact and any additional environmental consequences if the impact were to
occur.
• The assessment should take into consideration any design element or project changes.
• Repeat this process for each Part 2 question where the impact has been identified as potentially moderate to large or where
there is a need to explain why a particular element of the proposed action will not, or may, result in a significant adverse
environmental impact.
• Provide the reason(s) why the impact may, or will not, result in a significant adverse environmental impact
• For Conditional Negative Declarations identify the specific condition(s) imposed that will modify the proposed action so that
no significant adverse environmental impacts will result.
• Attach additional sheets, as needed.
1. Impact on Land: the average depth to water table in the project area is 2.4 ft per the USDA web soil survey.
1. Impact on Land: Approximately 20% of the project will take place in locations with a 15% slope or more per the USDA web soil survey.

Page 274
Upon review of the information recorded on this EAF, as noted, plus this additional support information
and considering both the magnitude and importance of each identified potential impact, it is the conclusion of the
Town of Boston Town Board as lead agency that:
✔ A. This project will result in no significant adverse impacts on the environment, and, therefore, an environmental impact
statement need not be prepared. Accordingly, this negative declaration is issued.
B. Although this project could have a significant adverse impact on the environment, that impact will be avoided or
substantially mitigated because of the following conditions which will be required by the lead agency:
There will, therefore, be no significant adverse impacts from the project as conditioned, and, therefore, this conditioned negative
declaration is issued. A conditioned negative declaration may be used only for UNLISTED actions (see 6 NYCRR 617.7(d)).
C. This Project may result in one or more significant adverse impacts on the environment, and an environmental impact
statement must be prepared to further assess the impact(s) and possible mitigation and to explore alternatives to avoid or reduce those
impacts. Accordingly, this positive declaration is issued.

Dear David Hardenbrook:
SEQR Lead Agency Designation
Town of Boston Water Improvements Phase 2
Town of Boston, Erie County
GID-006356
This is to acknowledge receipt of your notice, dated March 4, 2026, which requested
State Environmental Quality Review Act (SEQR) Lead Agency status for the above-noted
project. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC)
concurs that the Town of Boston should act as SEQR Lead Agency. However please be
aware of the following:
1. DEC’s amended Article 24, Freshwater Wetlands Jurisdiction and Classification
regulations (6 NYCRR Part 664) went into effect on January 1, 2025.
Portions of New York State regulated freshwater wetlands, and their adjacent areas
may be located in the project area. Although some limited activities are exempt from
permitting, most activities that involve disturbance within a wetland or its 100-foot
adjacent area require an Environmental Conservation Law (ECL) Article 24,
Freshwater Wetlands permit from the DEC. Information on regulated activities within
freshwater wetlands and adjacent areas is available on DEC’s website (see
Regulated Activities), which contains examples of regulated activities and those
exempt from wetland permits.
To determine whether the property contains regulated freshwater wetlands, the
project sponsor must submit a request for a Parcel Jurisdictional Determination
(Parcel JD). A Parcel JD is a determination made by DEC whether a property
contains regulated freshwater wetlands or adjacent areas within the parcel
boundary. Please use the attached link to request a Parcel JD for the project site:
https://dec.ny.gov/nature/waterbodies/wetlands/freshwater-wetlands-
program/freshwater-wetland-jurisdictional-determination. If you have any problems
submitting the Parcel JD request, please email: [email protected].
Division of Environmental Permits, Region 9
700 Delaware Avenue, Buffalo, NY 14209 | dec.ny.gov | [email protected] | (716) 851-7165

Page 2
Please note, there is an option for people who have hired consultants, and for other
environmental professionals with wetland expertise, to bypass the Albany Parcel
Jurisdictional Determination (JD) and follow the Parcel JD-Consultant Option.
Guidance on that process is online (via the above referenced link). Please note that
Region 9 has some information that is required in addition to the statewide
requirements for the Consultant Option (attached). The project sponsor should utilize
the attached Region 9 List of Requirements for their submission. The project
sponsor must submit these requirements to the Region 9 Bureau of Ecosystem
Health email address ([email protected]) with a request to utilize the Consultant
Option, and a request to schedule a boundary verification. Please be aware that
this option is only to be used to positively confirm wetland presence on the
property. A delineation showing no wetlands would not be acceptable and
would require the standard Jurisdictional Determination Request Form NYS
Freshwater Wetlands Jurisdictional Determination Request Form.
If the property contains regulated freshwater wetlands or adjacent areas, further
delineation of the wetland boundaries and a Project Jurisdictional Determination
(Project JD) may be required. A Project JD is a determination made by the regional
DEC office about whether a proposed activity within a parcel containing regulated
freshwater wetlands or adjacent areas requires an Article 24 Freshwater Wetlands
permit. Project JD requests should be sent to the Region 9 Bureau of Ecosystem
Health (BEH) at [email protected].
If regulated freshwater wetlands or adjacent areas are present, all efforts must be
made to first avoid disturbing the wetland and adjacent area. If disturbance to the
wetland and/or adjacent area cannot be avoided, the project sponsor must submit a
Freshwater Wetland permit application and obtain a permit to conduct a regulated
activity. In accordance with DEC’s Freshwater Wetlands Permit Requirements
Regulations (6 NYCRR Part 663), the applicant would need to justify the
disturbance, discuss alternatives and minimize impacts as part of the Freshwater
Wetlands permit application. More information on application procedures and permit
issuance standards is available on DEC’s website at:
https://dec.ny.gov/regulatory/permits-licenses/waterways-coastlines-
wetlands/freshwater-wetlands#Determine .
2. The project area may include federally regulated wetlands based on a review of the
National Wetlands Inventory wetland mapping. The project sponsor should consult
with the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), telephone: 716/879-4330,
concerning USACE regulatory jurisdiction to determine if the project
will impact federally regulated wetlands or require any other approval from that
agency. If federal wetlands are involved, USACE may require the project sponsor to
obtain a Section 401 Water Quality Certification (WQC) from NYSDEC. More
information related to this requirement can be found on NYSDEC’s website
at https://dec.ny.gov/nature/waterbodies/wetlands/freshwater-wetlands-
program/conserve/federal-regulatory-programs.

3. Please note that Eighteen Mile Creek has a water classification and standard of A,
pursuant to 6 NYCRR Part 837, Item 252. Therefore, any physical alteration (i.e.
land clearing, filling, drainage pipe/ditch installation, etc.) to the bed or banks (within
50 feet of the stream) will require an Article 15, Title 5, Protection of Waters Permit
from the NYSDEC.
4. Portions of this project are located within Erie County Agricultural District #15.
Impacts to the agricultural district should be considered during the review of this
action.
5. The project site was noted to be located in an archaeologically sensitive area based
on information obtained through the Cultural Resource Information System (CRIS)
on the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation’s
(OPRHP) website at https://cris.parks.ny.gov/. As part of the SEQR process, this
concern should be evaluated, unless it can be verified by appropriate documentation
that the site has been significantly disturbed in a way that would destroy potential
artifacts. Please recognize that normal agricultural activities, such as plowing, would
not constitute such land disturbance. If there are any questions regarding this,
contact OPRHP (telephone: 518/237-8643).
6. We have reviewed the available information in the New York State Natural Heritage
Program databases on known occurrences of rare or state-listed animals and plants,
of significant natural communities, and other significant habitats. Bald eagle
(Haliaeetus leucocephalus), a NYS listed threatened species, was last identified in
2025 in the Town of Boston. For most sites, comprehensive field surveys have not
been conducted. We cannot provide a definitive statement as to the presence or
absence of all rare or state-listed species or significant natural communities. This
information should not be substituted for on-site surveys that may be required for
environmental impact assessment. Depending on the nature of the project and the
conditions at the project site, further information from on-site surveys or other
sources may be required to fully assess impacts on biological resources.
7. Since project activities will involve land disturbance of 1 acre or more, the project
sponsor, owner or operator is required to obtain a State Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System General Permit for Stormwater Discharges from Construction
Activity (GP-0-25-001). This General Permit requires the project sponsor, owner or
operator to control stormwater runoff according to a Stormwater Pollution Prevention
Plan (SWPPP), which is to be prepared prior to filing a Notice of Intent (NOI) and
prior to commencement of the project. More information on General Permit GP-0-25-
001, as well as information on how to electronically submit the eNOI form, is
available on the NYSDEC’s website at www.dec.ny.gov/chemical/43133.html.
Information on permitting requirements and preparation of a necessary Stormwater
Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) is available on the NYSDEC’s website at
www.dec.ny.gov/chemical/8468.html.

The Town of Boston is designated as an MS4 community. The project sponsor,
owner or operator of a construction activity that is subject to the requirements of
regulated, traditional land use control MS4 shall have their SWPPP reviewed and
accepted by the MS4 community. The "MS4 SWPPP Acceptance” form must be
signed by the principal executive officer or ranking elected official from the MS4
community, or by a duly authorized representative of that person, and submitted
along with the eNOI to receive NYSDEC approval before construction commences.

TOWN OF BOSTON – RESOLUTION NO. 2026-41
ADOPTION OF LATERAL RESTRICTIONS – WATER/SEWER
SERVICE WITHIN AGRICULTURAL DISTRICTS
WHEREAS, the Town of Boston is undertaking water system improvements within
ECWA Boston Water District No. 1 and may establish future water districts along portions of
Lango Road, Boston Colden Road (County Road 222), and Cole Road (County Road 442); and
WHEREAS, portions of the project area are located within a county adopted, State
certified agricultural district; and
WHEREAS, the New York State Department of Agriculture and Markets requires the
imposition of lateral restrictions on water and sewer service within agricultural districts in order
to protect agricultural lands and limit non-farm development; and
WHEREAS, the Town Board of the Town of Boston desires to adopt such lateral
restrictions consistent with State guidance and applicable law, including Public Health Law §1115;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT
RESOLVED, that the Town of Boston imposes the following conditions, as warranted or
recommended, on the management of water/sewer lines located within ECWA Boston Water
District No. 1 and future-created Water Districts along portions Lango Road, Boston Colden Road
(County Road 222), and Cole Road (County Road 442) within an agricultural district:
(1) The only land and/or structures which will be allowed to connect to the proposed waterline
or sewer within an agricultural district will be existing structures at the time of construction,
future agricultural structures, and land and structures that have already been approved for
development by the local governing body prior to the filing of the Final Notice of Intent
by the municipality.
Land and structures that have been approved for development refer to those
properties/structures that have been brought before a local governing body where approval
(e.g., subdivision, site plan, and special permit) is needed to move forward with project
plans, and the governing body has approved the action. If no local approval is required for
the subdivision of land and/or the construction of structures, the municipality accepts the
limitation under Public Health Law §1115 that defines a “subdivision,” in part, as “any
tract of land which is divided into five or more parcels.” Water and/or sewer service will
not be extended to the fifth and subsequent parcels where no local approval is required,
and the land is located within a county adopted, State certified agricultural district.
(2) If a significant hardship can be shown by an existing resident, the lateral restriction on the
resident’s property may be removed by the municipality upon approval by the Department.
It is the responsibility of the resident landowner to demonstrate that a hardship exists
relative to his or her existing water supply or septic system and clearly demonstrate the
need for public water or sewer service. The municipality shall develop a hardship
Page 298
application to be filed with the municipality, approved by the County Department of
Health, and agreed to by the Department of Agriculture and Markets.
(3) If it can be demonstrated to the Department’s satisfaction that the landowner requested the
county to remove his or her land from an agricultural district at the time of district review
and the county legislative body refused to do so, lateral restrictions may be removed by the
municipality if the Department determines that the removal of the restriction for the subject
parcel(s) would not have an unreasonably adverse effect on the agricultural district.
(4) If land is removed from a county adopted, State certified agricultural district and the district
have been reviewed by the county legislative body and certified by the Commissioner for
modification, lateral restrictions imposed by the municipality are no longer in effect for the
parcels of land that have been removed from the agricultural district.
AND BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Town Supervisor and any other
appropriate Town officials are hereby authorized to take all actions necessary to implement and
enforce the foregoing lateral restrictions.
On May 4, 2026, the question of the adoption of the foregoing Resolution was duly put to
a vote on roll call, which resulted as follows:

V. FARMS AFFECTED BY ACTION
The attached table lists farms and/or agricultural parcels that are within Erie County
Agricultural District No. 15 and within the proposed project area.
VI. AGRICULTURAL IMPACT STATEMENT
A. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The proposed action involves installing approximately 32,000 linear feet (LF) of
8‑inch, 10‑inch, and 12‑inch water main along Boston State Road (NYS 391/CR
227), Back Creek Road (CR 438), Old Orchard Drive, Boston Colden Road (CR
222), Lango Road, and Cole Road (CR 442). These improvements address
deteriorating infrastructure and extend service to additional properties within the
Town. Approximately 9,600 LF of additional water main will also require lateral
restrictions along Boston Colden Road, Lango Road, and Cole Road. The majority
of the site consists of lawn areas, woodlands, and fields. However, portions of the
project route include stream crossings, driveways, and roads.
Erie County Agricultural District No. 15 encompasses the Towns of Boston, North
Collins, Concord, Sardinia, and Holland. Properties within the district that border
the project corridor are shown in Figure No. 2. Approximately 2.36 acres of
farmland will be affected through permanent easements, primarily located within
or immediately adjacent to existing public and private rights‑of‑way. No additional
conversion of active farmland is expected beyond these easement areas.
All construction will be completed in accordance with local regulations and meet
applicable standards.
B. Description of Agricultural Setting
Figure No. 2 Agricultural Districts Erie County shows the parcels located within
Erie County Agricultural District No. 15 that would be affected by the proposed
project.
Zoning within the proposed project area varies widely throughout the Town of
Boston – Water District 1 and 2 but consists mostly of residential properties and
agricultural land.
C. Assessment of Short-Term and Long-Term Agricultural Impacts
There are no adverse agricultural effects anticipated as a result of the proposed
action. This action is not intended to promote growth of residential, commercial, or
industrial users within the Agricultural Districts. Any short-term impacts as a result
of the proposed action will be due to construction-related activities. The majority
of the water main construction will occur in existing road rights-of-way or new
permeant easements, and in accordance with local regulations as well as applicable
AWWA standards.

All construction within Agricultural District No. 15 will be performed in accordance
with “Construction Standards for Water/Sewer Transmission Mains Wholly or
Partially Located within an Agricultural District” which is included as an attachment
to this notice. Farm landowners who may be directly affected by the proposed action
have not expressed any concerns regarding the project to date.
D. Mitigation Measures Proposed to Minimize the Adverse Impact
Any potential adverse impacts are minimized by mitigation measures as described in
“Minimum Construction Standards for Water/Sewer Transmission Mains located
Wholly or Partially in an Agricultural District” which is included as an attachment to
this Final Notice of Intent.
E. Adverse Agricultural Effects Which Cannot Be Avoided
Existing farm transportation operations may be temporarily impacted by the proposed
action during the construction phase. The water main installation route will also be
located immediately adjacent to actively farmed land in the Erie County
Agricultural District No. 15.
F. Alternatives To The Proposed Action
There are no practical alternatives to the proposed action within the Agricultural
District.
G. Irreversible/Irretrievable Commitments of Agricultural Resources
There are no irreversible or irretrievable commitments of agricultural resources
anticipated as a result of the proposed action.
H. Aspects Which May Encourage Non-Farm Development
No change in use of Agricultural/Residential lands within the Agricultural District is
proposed by this action. There are no anticipated long-term impacts to the
Agricultural District as a result of the proposed action including no change in use of
agricultural/residential lands within the Agricultural District.
VII. COMMENCEMENT OF PROPOSED ACTION
The anticipated starting date for the proposed project is Fall 2026 with construction
finishing in Fall 2027.

Construction Standards for Water/Sewer Transmission
Mains
Located Wholly or Partially in an Agricultural District
Pipelines Less Than Eight Inches Outer - Diameter
The following standards focus on measures, which minimize or mitigate the impacts on farmland from
small pipeline trenching/construction. These standards cover practical agricultural issues including:
pipeline depth-of-cover, topsoil protection, waste stone/rock materials, soil rutting and compaction, and
existing and future farm drainage.
Pipeline Depth-of-Cover
Pipeline depth within the soil profile is important from the farming standpoint due to the permanence of a
pipe's position in the soil profile. Inappropriate depth of a water/sewer line will diminish the current and
future farm operators' capacities to administer the scope of land-fitting practices required to meet
specialized cropping needs. Such practices can range from deep tillage to the installation of subsurface
tile drain lines.
From the pipeline operator's standpoint, appropriate depth-of-cover is essential for protection against
puncture from surface disturbance and against bursting due to frost penetration and freeze up. A common
minimum depth-of-cover employed in water/sewer pipelines is 4.5 feet.
Standard: In agricultural land, the minimum depth-of-cover from restored ground surface to top of
the buried pipe will be 4.0 feet. (See "Existing and Future Farm Drainage" regarding depth
adjustment.)
Topsoil Resource
The topsoil layer of the soil profile is the fertile material needed for sustained crop productivity and must
be protected against degradation and loss due to pipeline construction activity.
Standard: For small pipelines to be constructed in agricultural land the "ditch and spoil-side"
topsoil stripping practice should be employed:
The topsoil ("A" horizon) of the trench and adjacent trench-spoil storage zones should be stripped
down to the top of the subsoil zone. The stripped topsoil should be segregated from all other
materials in its separate stockpile at the edge of the construction right-of-way. At least two feet of
open buffer shall be maintained between the respective toe of the topsoil stockpile and the
nearest toe of the trench-spoil stockpile.
Trench Backfill
It is important to restore the original soil profile during the trench backfilling stage. Also, if the backfilling
phase is completed while there is water in the pipeline trench, long stretches of right-of-way with
prolonged soil saturation conditions can occur. Such saturated soil conditions can result in significant
restoration difficulties and delays.
Standard: The trench should be backfilled with the excavated spoil material. (For areas with
stones/rocks, see "Waste Rock.")
Page 310
The pipeline trench should be thoroughly dewatered prior to backfilling.
Topsoil should not be used as trench-backfill.
After backfilling the trench with the spoil material, the stripped topsoil should be replaced
uniformly over the area from which it was removed.
Waste Rock
The upper portion of the soil profile (topsoil and upper subsoil) on tillable land contains a relatively low
concentration of stones and rocks. Trench excavation for pipelines can unearth substantial quantities of
stone and rock spoil from deeper portions of the soil profile. It is important to prevent either large rocks or
concentrations of stone material used as backfill from obstructing normal farm tillage operations and
disabling farm machinery.
Standard: In agricultural land, blasted or excavated bedrock, boulders and concentrations of
excavated stone or rock materials should not be returned to the trench any closer than 24 inches
from the exposed work surface of the stripped portion of right-of-way. The remainder of the
backfill should be limited to suitable subsoil material, backfilled up to top of the exposed work
surface. Excess waste/rock stone materials should be removed and then disposed of safely.
Soil Rutting and Compaction
The construction work/traffic zone of the right-of-way for a small diameter pipeline is not generally
stripped of the topsoil. However, construction equipment can seriously rut, compact and damage the
topsoil and upper subsoil. Damage from small-diameter pipeline construction is usually the result of work
when soils are too wet after rains, or from seasonal saturation.
Standard: Project traffic over topsoil on unstripped agricultural land should not be scheduled
during seasonally wet soil conditions in early spring or late fall.
During the period of right-of-way construction/restoration, the movement of project vehicles and
equipment over unstripped topsoil should be halted through periods of soil saturation from
rainfall, until the soils are drained sufficiently to avoid rutting. Likewise, vehicle and equipment
traffic should be prohibited during periods of thaw, until the upper soil profile is sufficiently frozen
to avoid rutting.
Existing and Future Farm Drainage
Surface drainage ways for storm runoff as well as for the outletting of subsurface drain lines are afforded
agricultural lands by natural creeks, swales, ditches, diversion terraces, etc. Subsurface drainage is
managed through installed practices of random and pattern tile drain lines. Protection of existing surface
and subsurface drainage is important for crop production as is the capability to install future tile drain lines
and maintain ditches.
Standard:
Existing drainage
Surface drainage systems affected by the pipeline project should be protected and their
function maintained by temporary fluming. Earthen berms of surface drainage systems (e.g.
diversion terraces) should not be breached. Where breaching is unavoidable, the earthen berm
Page 311
will be fully restored by engineering methods and materials consistent with the specifications
of the USDA Soil Conservation Service.
All severed tile drain lines should be repaired, maintaining original gradient, using methods
and materials consistent with the specifications of the USDA Soil Conservation Service. All
repairs and protective sleeving should be shouldered firmly at least three feet beyond the limit
of the water/sewer line excavation.
Future drainage
During project planning and design, all operators of affected farmland should be inventoried
for future locations of surface or subsurface drainage. All such locations should be noted in
the design.
Depth and gradient for such future surface or subsurface drainage installation, consistent with
USDA Soil Conservation Service engineering specifications, should be accommodated by
appropriate engineering of the depth-of-pipeline beyond the minimum burial of 4.0 feet as
applicable.
Deep Ripping and Stone Removal
The dense compaction of the soil should be alleviated together with stone removal prior to the final
seedbed preparation.
Standard: During periods of relatively low to moderate soil moisture, the affected right-of-way
should be alternately deep chiseled and rock-picked until uplifted stone/rock materials of four
inches and larger size are cleared off the site and disposed of properly.

Minimum Construction Standards for Water/Sewer
Transmission Mains
Located Wholly or Partially in an Agricultural District
For Pipelines of Eight Inches or Greater Outer - Diameter
The following standards apply to those portions of water/sewer transmission mains measuring eight (8)
inches or more in outer-diameter, which are proposed for construction on agricultural land. The standards
focus on measures that minimize or mitigate the impacts on farmland from such pipeline
trenching/construction. The standards cover practical agricultural issues including: pipeline depth-of-
cover, topsoil protection, waste stone/rock materials, soil rutting and compaction, existing and future farm
drainage and other farm related facilities.
Pipeline Depth-of-Cover
Pipeline depth within the soil profile is important from the farming standpoint due to the permanence of a
pipe's position in the soil profile. Inappropriate depth of a water/sewer line will diminish current and future
farm operators' capacities to administer the scope of land-fitting practices required to meet specialized
cropping needs. Such practices can range from deep tillage to the installation of subsurface tile drain
lines.
From the pipeline operator's standpoint, appropriate depth-of-cover is essential for protection against
puncture from surface disturbance and against bursting due to frost penetration and freeze up. A common
minimum depth-of-cover employed in water/sewer pipelines is 4.5 feet.
Standard: In agricultural land, the minimum depth-of-cover from restored ground surface to top of
the buried pipe will be 4.0 feet. (See "Existing and Future Farm Drainage" regarding depth
adjustment.)
Topsoil Resource Protection
The topsoil layer of the soil profile is the fertile material needed for sustained crop productivity. Pipeline
construction of this size range is generally ongoing through completion, regardless of soil moisture
conditions, and can permanently alter the soil profile throughout the construction right-of-way.
The farm soils throughout New York State have only limited ability to recover from the concentrated
disturbances of pipeline right-of-way construction activity, due to a thin topsoil layer, humid climate and
correspondingly excessive soil moisture for most of the year. Farm soils must be protected against
degradation through the exercise of soil protection standards.
Standard: The full-width topsoil stripping practice should be employed over the construction
right-of-way:
The topsoil ("A" horizon) should be stripped down to the top of the subsoil zone for the
contiguous width of the construction work/traffic area, trench zone and trench spoil storage area.
The stripped topsoil should be segregated from all other materials in a segregated stockpile on
top of unstripped topsoil at the far edge of the construction right-of-way on the side opposite from
the trench and spoil side.
Page 314
Trench Backfill and Waste Rock
Trench excavation for pipelines can unearth substantial quantities of stone and rock spoil from the various
subsoil layers. It is important to restore the original soil profile and prevent either large rocks or
concentrations of stone material used as backfill from obstructing normal farm tillage operations and
disabling farm machinery. Also, if the backfilling phase is completed while there is water in the pipeline
trench, long stretches of right-of-way with prolonged soil saturation conditions can occur. Such saturated
soil conditions can result in significant restoration difficulties and delays.
Standard: The pipeline trench should be thoroughly dewatered prior to backfilling. The trench
should be backfilled with the excavated spoil material and compacted during backfilling to
minimize trench settling.
Topsoil should not be used as trench-backfill and should remain in its segregated stockpile until
all deep ripping and stone removal work is completed.
On agricultural land, blasted or excavated bedrock, boulders and concentrations of excavated
stone or rock materials should not be returned to the trench any closer than 24 inches from the
exposed work surface of the stripped portion of right-of-way. The remainder of the backfill should
be limited to suitable subsoil material, backfilled up to the top of the exposed work surface.
Excess waste rock/stone materials should be removed and disposed of safely.
Deep Ripping and Stone Removal
The dense compaction of the exposed subsoil (i.e., the spoil storage area, backfilled trench and
construction work and traffic area) must be alleviated together with stone removal prior to the subsequent
stages of topsoil replacement and final subsoil shattering.
Standard: During periods of relatively low to moderate subsoil moisture, the exposed right-of-way
shall be returned to rough grade; deep ripped with heavy duty ripper; and, alternately deep
chiseled and rock-picked until uplifted stone/rock materials of four inches and larger size are
cleaned off the site and disposed of properly. In subsoils with excessive stony-rocky material in
the upper layer, an alternate ripping/stone removal plan should be developed and submitted to the
Department of Agruculture and Markets for review in advance of project construction.
Topsoil Replacement and Subsoil Shattering
Standard: After the initial subsoil ripping, chiseling and stone removal has been completed, the
segregated topsoil materials should be uniformly spread across the stripped portion of right-of-
way.
Topsoil spreading should be conducted only during periods of low to moderate soil moisture to
avoid rutting, mixing and recompaction of the soil profile. Topsoil spreading should not be
conducted during periods of saturation or frozen ground. Alternative plans should be prepared for
suspension of topsoil spreading under such conditions, and soil restoration work should not
resume until appropriate moisture conditions occur during the following season.
After topsoil replacement, final subsoil shattering using a deep 4-shank paratill with narrow leg
spacing should be conducted throughout the disturbed right-of-way to a depth of 18 inches.
Large, uplifted rock materials should be picked from the surface and disposed of properly.
Final subsoil shattering and rock removal should be conducted only during periods of low to
moderate soil moisture and not during periods of saturation or frozen ground. Final subsoil

shattering and rock picking should be suspended when saturated or frozen soil conditions occur.
This final phase of restoration can be completed when appropriate moisture conditions return the
following season.
Existing and Future Farm Drainage
Surface drainage ways for storm runoff and for the outletting of subsurface drain lines are afforded
agricultural lands by natural creeks, swales, ditches, diversion terraces, etc. Subsurface drainage is
managed through installed practices of random and pattern tile drain lines. Protection of existing surface
and subsurface drainage is important for crop productivity as is the capacity to install future tile drain lines
and maintain ditches.
Standard:
Existing Drainage
Surface drainage systems affected by the pipeline project should be protected and their
function maintained by temporary fluming. Earthen berms of surface drainage systems (e.g.
diversion terraces) should not be breached. Where breaching is unavoidable, the earthen berm
should be fully restored by engineering methods and materials consistent with the
specifications of the USDA Soil Conservation Service.
All severed tile drain lines should be repaired, maintaining original gradient, using methods
and materials consistent with the standards of the NYS Department of Agriculture and Markets.
All repairs and protective pipe sleeving or supportive channel iron should be shouldered firmly
at least three feet beyond the limit of the water/sewer line excavation.
Future Drainage
During project planning and design, all operators of affected farmland should be inventoried
for future locations of surface or subsurface drainage. All such locations should be noted in
the design.
Depth and gradient for such future surface or subsurface drainage installation, consistent with
USDA Soil Conservation Service engineering specifications, should be accommodated by
appropriate engineering of the depth-of-pipeline.
Control of Water Piping, Soil Saturation and Seeps
Pipeline trench excavation in and immediately upgrade from agricultural areas can alter the natural
stratification of soil horizons and natural soil drainage patterns.
Standard: The pipeline right-of-way should be monitored for at least one year following
restoration for surface seeps and areas of prolonged soil saturation. Such measures as
subsurface intercept drain lines should be used to prevent surface seeps and the seasonally
prolonged saturation of the backfilled trench zone and adjacent areas. Intercept drain lines should
be installed according to the specifications of the USDA Soil Conservation Service.
