Town of Hamburg Planning Board Minutes January 21, 2026 Lindsay Dunn, Town of Hamburg Traffic Safety, spoke on behalf of the project. Traffic safety was approached by several residents about traffic issues in the area, so a lengthy traffic survey was done, some signage was done and they continue to monitor the situation. Member Clark asked if Traffic Safety has any recommendations on conditions for this resolution. Mr. Dunn stated that there does seem to be a lot of traffic in that little area just from the residents themselves. Mr. Rogers suggested that maybe a condition could be that Traffic Safety continues to monitor the area and will provide updates, recommendations and reports as seems fit. Member Clark suggested that the property owner could put up signage and maintain signage so the Town of Hamburg would not always have to do it. Member Chmura asked when they were there doing the investigation and also putting up the signage. Mr. Dunn responded that they parked in the area and did some counts. They tried to stagger it and go at different times in the morning, afternoon and night and they did not observe any speeders. Member Geraci stated that he went to the site two different times, in the morning when people were going to work and in the afternoon when people were coming home. After seeing the traffic flow his opinion is that once the apartments are finished, that area will probably require a traffic light. Member Chmura asked if there was any input from Traffic Safety in regard to placement of a house on the new proposed lot. Mr. Dunn stated there had been discussion of another access out instead of a house that was brought to them, but they did not pursue that. Attorney Gogan stated that while looking at the survey the parcel is not on the corner and is one away from the corner. With the setback concern, it could be stated that it should be treated as a corner lot. Member Geraci read the SEQR resolution: Boston State Holdings LLC.
