Supervisor Eagan Fiscally Irresponsible

[Iknow]

FROM THE TOWN BOARD MEETING JUNE 18, 2008.

READ THIS CRAP THAT LITTLE HILTER IS SPEWING OUT OF HIS MOUTH NOW:


Supervisor Eagan: I would just like to make a point. Every time we have a public hearing regarding our Town Budget, there are always a few people that either come here or are down at the restaurants and are talking about all the revenue that is brought into this community and how we should use some of this additional revenue. I just want to point out that we collect about $184,000 in General Fund property taxes, but our overall budget is approximately 4 million dollars. So, a lot of the additional monies come from State aid, mortgage tax, and sales tax, which fluctuates. Because of that fluctuation, we never have the assuredness that it will be replaced. A few years ago, I believe Holland and Concord got into some financial trouble because they exhausted their surplus funds and had nothing to balance their budget with; therefore, they had to raise their taxes considerably.

Supervisor Eagan Cont’d: Since I have become supervisor, we have used a professional and conscientious approach to managing our finances. I have always opposed to using an excess amount of this surplus for every day, reoccurring expenses. We’ve primarily used it for offsetting our obligations for grant monies. We get a $50,000 grant; we have a $50,000 match. That is how we were able to complete a $200,000 project in bank stabilization along Irish Gulf. This is how we were able to meet some of the cost along 18—mile creek with some of the projects we have going. We collected over $190,000 in sales tax last year, to date; we have only recently received $61,000. Home sales have slowed. Boston has always been a very healthy community and we are growing here, I wouldn’t say at a fast pace, but our market and values are still up, but they are slowing down. My projection is that when the next check comes in around November, December, we are not going to see $61,000. There are houses on the market right now that just aren’t moving. My point is, when these people on the street, church or coffee shop talk about excessive funds, any funds we have are in reserve for meeting grants. This will help pay for the archeological study we didn’t expect. I will bring this up again, because I am putting together a review of the last five or six years of our other sources of revenue to show the public how much it fluctuates and to substantiate my position that you can not use this to bank roll the expenses of the community. It is disastrous to do it in the long run. Kevin Gaughan would probably agree with me that it would be a real act of irresponsibility to just continue to use reserve funds to pay everyday expenses without the ability of knowing that money can be replaced.


THIS HOW EAGAN IS ABLE TO SLIDE MONIES TO HIS DEMOCRATIC FRIENDS.

" This will help pay for the archeological study we didn’t expect"

NOW ALMOST EVERY PROJECT IN BOSTON HAS TO HAVE A "archeological study" ANYBODY IN THE DEVELOPMENT BUSINESS KNOWS THIS. HE IS IN CHARGE OF SPENDING OUR TAX MONEY AND GRANT MONEY. HE DIDNT EXPECT TO PAY FOR THE STUDY?

ANOTHER TOWN BOARD MEETING WITH ALL MEMBERS VOTING ALL IN FAVOR.

WHEN IS THE TOWN BOARD GOING TO WAKE UP?

GET RID OF EAGAN IN 2009. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR AYE!!

NOW MAKE SURE YOU DONT SAY ANYTHING BAD AT THE LOCAL COFFEE SHOP ABOUT EAGAN, IT GETS BACK TO HIM....

It is not her tax money. I think she still lives at home with Mom and Dad. So maybe if it were her allowance.....that might be another story.
When you see how much of your paycheck that goes to taxes, property, income; pretty soon they will be taxing us to take a breath around her.
Like what you see? That will cost ya.

[Iknow]

to bad Bambi is dead and so is Walt Disney.

Another term of Eagan and he will be sucking a pension out of this town.

DO YOU WANT TAX MONEY GOING TO EAGAN FOR THE REST OF HIS LIFE?

FOR WHAT BECAUSE HE SAT IN THE BIG CHAIR AND CRUSHED HIS OPPONENTS WITH LIES AND SLANDER ABOUT WHAT HE HAS NOT ACCOMPLISHED? LOOK AT THE TENT SITTING IN THE NEW POLICE BARRACKS LOCATION. ANYONE BEEN IN THE TENT IN A WHILE? NO, BUT EAGAN IS STILL WRITING CHECKS TO THEM.....

THINK LONG AND HARD ABOUT IT, WE HAVE TILL NOVEMBER 2009!

MAYBE SOONER IF CUOMO GETS HIS WAY, I WILL BE THE FIRST TO SIGN A PETITION TO REMOVE THE DICTATOR FROM OFFICE..

[Iknow]

Boston is not growing, look around no new subdivisions or development in years.

FOR SALE SIGNS EVERYWERE.

Eagan has dipped into the reserve fund every single year since slipping in the Supervisor postion by 4 votes.

Reserve funds are to benefit the community, its not Eagan decision to throw money at projects that only benefit who ever donates to his Political Party.

[Justbecuz]

Sounds like it's time for a Town Audit !! and a clean slate.......... not to mention making the your town citizens aware of what it really going on out there.

[Iknow]

The tent people are back.

Must be nice to sit behind a tent and do nothing but collect a check from

Little Billy Hitler Eagan. Now theres a track hoe there digging to China to find what a few chips. They will come back that everything they found was

"of No Significance"

One Question Little Hilter: I know you read this, a spy told me so...

Whats wrong with putting an addition on the old Police Barracks?

GET RID OF EAGAN, CAMPAIGN 2009...

Whats wrong with putting an addition on the old Police Barracks?

GET RID OF EAGAN, CAMPAIGN 2009...

Isn't there a old Fire Hall near the Boston Hotel for sale? Why not make use of that? It would be one less vacant building in the Town! With the States money problems? They will be lucky they don't halt that project and leave the Tax Payers holding the bill for the ''Big Bill Dig".

[Iknow]

Looks like Little Billy Hilter Eagan is in some hot water in Lackawanna. Sources say he is going down with the Mayor.

[FJB]

What happened in Lackawanna for you to say Eagan is out? Bill has always been honest to me and I respect the guy. Perhaps if you called him and had a sit down you could work out your problems. Although Boston isn't my concern.

[Iknow]

sit down with Little Hilter? I would spit in his face.

he is a lieing, cheating, corrupt, embezzling, self serving, leach, hipocrit.....

life long politician. He deserves nothing but a swift kick to the curb.

Hopefully in 2009 he will be gone from Boston...

can anyone remember that last time Little Billy Eagan Hitler was at the town Hall working for the people of Boston?

[desonii]

On thursday afternoon as I was driving by the someday home of a new police house, I spotted a little king checking out the diggings, or was he planting, arrowheads, or lttle green plants, the digging was only about little king height, so are we getting a wadding pool, or a curb ball court, oh well, china comes to the surface.

[Iknow]

to bad someone didnt kick him in the hole!! He never would have been able to climb out.

Call me stupid, with all that heavy equipment I thought they were breaking ground for the new police barracks.

I wonder if the taxpayers are ever going to get a final figure on what that cost? Personnally, I think its a waste of money. I bet half the town of Boston is built on Indian artifacts...................

With the State budget the way it is.... It's no wonder they haven't stopped the new build. Isn't there another Fire Hall in Boston thats for sale? and I think it's close to a 219 exit, large parking lot and a garage or 2...right?

If I where the State, I'd look into that building.

The only way this fleecing is going to stop, is to call out reps and report it.

Supervisor Eagan noted that he met with representatives from the Seneca Nations to discuss the possibility of burial grounds at the new Trooper Barracks site. Supervisor Eagan stated that there has not been any new evidence of such. The Seneca Nation representatives feel nothing will be found. Supervisor Eagan stated that NYS may still require the town to clear the area where the building and parking lot will be.

WHY DIDNT ANYONE TELL LITTLE HILTER TO DO THIS IN THE FIRST PLACE?

Good thing you sqandered $380,000 to dig up half the hillside to find that out.

News flash: that land was originally planned for soccer fields till you came along. $380,000 sure would have made a nice soccer complex.

Supervisor Eagan noted that the Sunday, August 31st, “Buffalo Newspaper” reported 2008 Assessments in Erie County. He noted that the Town of Boston is in very good shape compared to other Erie County towns. He stated that Boston is in a sound financially and they have worked very hard to prepare budgets that reflect the taxpayers’ interest.


What a lier Little Billy Hilter Eagan is.

Boston ranks one of the most taxed towns in the hole bunch, school taxes are one of the highest in the hole group. He has not worked at all really, there is a budget committee that does all the work. The budget does not reflect anything but smoke and mirrors. Keep an eye out Boston residents.

You are being fleeced by Bill Eagan. Since he was barely elected in both his elections, the town taxes have gone up 20%.

DOES THAT REFLECT THE TAXPAYER INTERESTS? ANSWER: NO..

[Iknow]

Supervisor Eagan noted that he was happy to announce that phase 3 of the archeological study is complete. The archeologist has sent notice that no burial grounds were found. Supervisor Eagan stated that once we submit a plan to SHPO showing the area where the trooper’s barracks will be built, they will sign off and release the property for development. Once that is received, the bid process will be addressed.

Eagan spent in excess of $80,000 to find out theres nothing there. Bravo Little Hilter, Good Idea to only search were there barracks are going. Screw the soccer fields.. Kids cant Vote...

It must be nice to have an open check book to keep spending tax dollars like a drunken sailor.

Now I am not sure why the Town Board Sheep would even consider this.
I though Patchin Fire Company receives $ to also respond to EMS calls. Plus Rurual Metro Serves Boston for EMS calls. So give Boston Emergency Squad more money per volunteer to lure volunteers??? This type of spending is typical of career politicians to get votes. Typical Little Billy Hilter Eagan move throw TAX money at the problem!!!


Explanation of Town of Boston Propostion 1
Town of Boston Proposition #1

Shall Resolution No. 12 of the Year 2008 requiring the Town Board of the Town of Boston to adopt an amendment to the previously adopted Service Award Program of the Volunteer Ambulance Workers serving in the Town of Boston Ambulance District with the estimated cost of $28,700.00 based upon the current roster of active Volunteer Ambulance Workers and where the estimated annual cost per covered participant will be $700.00, and where the estimated annual administration fee will be $40.00 per participant per year with an additional cost of $200.00 for miscellaneous charges be approved?

Current Situation:
The Boston Town Board contracts with the Boston Emergency Squad for Emergency Medical Services. The Boston voters in 1996 approved the establishment of a Defined Contribution Service Award Program to provide municipality funded benefits for volunteer ambulance workers based upon length of service.

Currently, the Town of Boston contributes $480 per qualifying year of service for each active member to the program. Upon vesting and attaining the age of 60 the members become eligible to receive a lump sum payment including principal and earned interest minus expenses.

Similar options are also being considered by other New York State Municipalities. The Boston Town Board has proposed to increase the annual contribution to $700 per qualifying year.

The recruitment and retention of Boston Emergency Squad Volunteers continues to be a challenge and this program improves this situation.

A YES VOTE Means:
This proposition should be approved and hopefully by increasing the contribution from $480 to $700 per qualifying year per member will continue to improve recruiting and retention to the Boston Emergency Squad, which provides Emergency Medical Services to the Town of Boston without paid members.

A NO VOTE Means:
You disagree with increasing the contribution from $480 to $700 per qualifying year per member.

Unfortunate for you, ignorance is showing through on this one. After researching this one, and not fishing for truths, you would find out a few items of note.
First, the Town of Boston Contracts with Boston EMS for Emergency Medical Services.
The Town of Boston contracts with the three fire companies in the Town of Boston; Boston, North Boston and Patchin Fire Companies (Alphabetical order- no disrespect in listing Patchin last)
Boston EMS provides Paramedic Level Service to their community; one of few volunteer companies in WNY. With that added level of service, they needed to have a backup plan in place, to ensure their citizens of a Paramedic should one of thiers not be available. Enter Rural Metro- with no contract or legal arrangement, only a committment to provide care for the citizens of Boston when needed.
Reading through the Town Board Minutes, Patchin did not ask for any more money to respond on EMS calls. All three Fire Companies get the same amount of money per year.
If you have seen the news in the last 6 years, or been conscious through any portion of the last 10 years, you would note a few things. Delays in hospitals, and declining volunteers. Ask anyone who has gone in the ambulance how longer their wait was. See how that is hurting the ranks of volunteers state wide.

Listening to the scanner, you can hear the average ambulance call last a few hours. Based on the last few years records, it looks like Boston EMS goes out over 400 times a year.
A small incentive like the firemen got a few years back is a small price to pay to entice these people to continue to volunteer their time to train, respond and react when we need them.
So what would that equate, out of your pocket?
Would it even be $0.01?
Stop down and see what those people are doing, and how they just saved you, the taxpayer some money.....Ask them about that.
:)

I don't think these people are going to retire in the lap of luxury on this nominal increase of a service award.

[Iknow]

It equates to more than that Boston Patriot.

So if you have Boston EMS, Patchin Fire Company and Rural Metro all avaliable to respond were is the need to entice volunteers with more money. A lump sum at 60. Do you have any idea what kind of money we are talking when these people hit 60? Get out your old adding machine and take a look.
In the day and age when retired town workers are receiveing huge pensions and life time benefits, we are going to add these huge lump sum handouts to volunteers? Come on, your ignorance is showing. Look ahead not behind...

Since you have your calculator out, how about adding the amount of time spent performing the duties. See how that equates, and divide it by the 'huge lump sum' and divide it up. Betchya wouldn't even come close to minimum wage. Minimum wage to learn skills that could one day save your life.....
I don't see this as being a lifetime of benefits......
If it is SO enticing, maybe you should jump on the gravy train......

By DAVE DAHL

A disputed truck purchase caused a fiery exchange among officials in the Town of Boston.

The Boston Town Board chose the lowest bidder for two trucks to be used as snowplows over Highway Superintendent Robert Telaak’s recommendation last Wednesday (Oct. 15) night.

Afterward, Telaak voiced his disagreement and soon after a shouting match erupted.

“This is wrong, what they did tonight,” he said.

Town Supervisor William Eagan told Telaak buying the truck he suggested could have resulted in a lawsuit. He then challenged Telaak to a bet.

“I’ll resign if I’m wrong,” Eagan said. “You resign if you’re wrong.”

Telaak showed no interest in Eagan’s offer.

“Nobody would miss you,” he said.

Acting on advice given by the town attorney, board members selected two 2009 trucks from West Herr Ford at $35,621 each, for a total cost of $71,242.

Telaak recommended Dodge trucks from Fleet Maintenance for $40,212 each, for a total of $80,424.
He reasoned that the town should buy the Dodge trucks because they have a manual exhaust brake for downhill driving, something the Ford trucks do not have.

Telaak also believes that the Dodge trucks will be able to last longer.

“Now, we’re going to get a truck that breaks down,” he said.

In a letter to the town clerk’s office, Michael Fleischman of West Herr Ford wrote that the Ford F550 Diesel Drivetrain truck contains the electronic variable response turbo, a device that automatically slows the truck as it goes downhill.

Board members argued that there was no reason to choose the Dodge trucks because the lowest bidder’s vehicles performed the same function.

Town Attorney Brian Downey added that the board had to accept the lowest bid.
“You can’t just throw bids out,” he said.

Eagan accused Telaak of trying to write the bid specifications to exclude Ford.

“You’re the one who wanted to write it for a Dodge truck, which is illegal,” he said.

Enraged by Telaak’s insistence that the board made the wrong decision, Councilman Richard Hawkins entered the argument.

Standing inches from Telaak’s face, Hawkins shouted in response.

“You’ve got no cahones,” he yelled. “You’re a liar.”

Eagan restrained Hawkins, pushed him aside and stood between Hawkins and Telaak before they went their separate ways after they left the room.

Emerling Chevrolet also bid $46,547 per truck, which would have cost $93,094 for two vehicles.

In a related matter, board members chose Valley Fab and Equipment, the only bidder for the dump box, plow, sander and wing.

The combined expense for those accessories on the trucks arrived at $99,266.

Board members also proposed the elected officials’ salaries for next year.

There were no changes to the supervisor’s $28,300 annual income or the pay for the other four members of the Town Board, who each would earn salaries of $7,770.

All other elected officials have been set to receive increases.

If approved, the amounts will rise from $42,450 to $43,515 for the town clerk, from $14,100 to $14,455 for both town justices and from $48,700 to $49,918 for the highway superintendent.

The board may finalize the salaries and the rest of the budget at its next meeting, scheduled for 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 5.

Wow- real pros.

Something to be proud of. I know emotions often get the best of us but c'mon. We eleceted these guys to do what is best for us.
I wonder if anyone campaigned they would get into screaming matches.

I agree with Teelak, leave the truck decision to the one who has to maintain it and also drive it. The town board will lie, cheat, steal what ever it takes to do what Eagan Wants. Its the beginning of the end for Hawkins and Eagan.

Town Attorney Brian Downey added that the board had to accept the lowest bid.
“You can’t just throw bids out,” he said.

I'm not so sure this is a correct statement.

[Iknow]

Town Attorney Downey appointed by Billy Little Hilter Eagan is barely an attorney. He spews his opinion on the law not the actual law. The Town Board sheep could have easily choosen the Dodge trucks based on the recommendation of the Town Highway Super. But since Teelak in of the other political party in town, the sheep all follow there herder Little Billy Hitler. Its interesting Pluto keeps his mouth shut lately, him and Eagan actually went out and rented a track hoe to work on Little Billys big dig across the street costing tax payers approx $4000.00. Pluto and his croony actually operated the equipment on a Sunday. Didnt Pluto say he went to church on Sundays, what a lier.... They charge all of this to the parks department budget trasferring monies from the general fund to finance the Police Barracks Project. Sounds like inappropriation of funds to me.... stealing from the kids... Who cares they cant vote Right Eagan?

Almost less that a year of these theives in office.
cant wait to see who runs against these clowns, anyone is better than these two. Maybe Eagan will get a job with his partner in crime Brian Higgins and leave Boston for good..

[Iknow]

Absolutely unbelievable!!

In this day and age, increasing town employees and town officials salaries is absolutely stealing from tax payers. What constitutes raises? Oh its election year, Eagan wants votes from the officials and there familes. The same as giving more money to the Boston Emergency Squad members when they turn 60. Career politicians giving tax money away as incentive to get votes...

[Iknow]

"Supervisor Eagan stated that the Town Board and Town Attorney Downey have done extensive research regarding the bidding of the trucks. Everyone, including Highway Superintendent Telaak, wanted to ensure that we complied with the law. We put this out to bid so Emerling Chevrolet would also have the ability to bid. The Town Board felt that it would be an injustice not to give them the opportunity to bid. Fortunately, the law also dictates that we open the bidding up to all truck manufacturers that can meet the specifications or equivalent. The Town Board has always promoted a fair and open process and this is an example of that."

Giving Emerling Chevrolet a chance to bid, how nice of you Little Hitler. Then sneaking off to get a letter from West-Herr just to stick to Telaak in front of the Town Board Sheep...

To bad Eagan doesnt practice what he preaches to the public. He hands out contracts as he pleases with no other bids all the time. The Consultant that has received roughly $80,000 to dig up half the hillside is one example.

Fleet Maintenance, Inc. $40,212.00 $80,424.00
Emerling Chevrolet $46,547.00 $93,094.00
With Timbren Boosters $94,826.00


When a dealership in your own town comes in $9,000 higher than the guy who gets the bid and its the same exact vehicle, something isn't right.

Maybe West Herr could offer these trucks to the town at this cost for some unknown reason, but I would be skeptical.

I shouldn't bitch.........its a savings to the taxpayers :):):)

Bill Forness, 9534 West Hill Road, expressed his concern about requests from the floor being early on the agenda and residents having the opportunity to discuss items on the current agenda at a later time during the meeting. He asked if he could address the Town Board after the discussion on the Special Permit for Dumping of Material for Paul Reinecke.

The Town Board did not have a problem with that.

John Hartman, 6998 Boston Cross Road, stated that he lives adjacent to South Boston Park and was concerned about the gate being installed on the driveway. He stated that he preferred that it not be installed and that the driveway to the park is on his property. He feels that this gate would limit access to his property. He stated that he realizes there were issues with vandalism in the past, but that has not been an issue for quite a while.

Supervisor Eagan asked if he had a copy of his survey.

John Hartman proceeded to show the Town Board members a copy of his survey.

Supervisor Eagan instructed the town clerk to make copies of the survey.

Town Attorney Downey asked John Hartman if he had a search for his property and if he does he would like a copy of it.

Supervisor Eagan stated that Town Attorney Downey would be in contact with him to discuss and determine the correct measurements.

Received and filed Special Permit for the Dumping of Material from Paul Reinecke, 7010 Boston State Road.

Paul Reinecke, 7010 Boston State Road: I have a ten to fifteen foot drop off near my driveway, and I’m just trying to fill it in. It’s a very dangerous situation right now. The pond would be something I would install in the future.

Councilman Pluta stated that the Town Board was not going to deny this permit; they were merely going to table it until further information was received. Councilman Pluta stated that there was some confusion on whether Paul Reinecke was trying to fill in 5 acres or just a small section.

Paul Reinecke: When you pull onto my driveway from Boston State Road, there are ten to twelve foot drop offs in spots.

Councilman Pluta stated that the Town Board needs clarification on the survey as to how much land is being filled in. This is why they were going to table it. Deputy Code Enforcement Officer Lisowski will contact him and verify the information for us. He stated that measurements need to be included.

Supervisor Eagan stated that no one was opposed; we need additional information.

Town Attorney Downey stated that if it’s over one acre than an additional SPDES permit is required by NYS. Town Attorney Downey stated that it was in Paul Reinecke’s best interest to talk further with the Code Enforcement Office.

Councilman Hawkins questioned whether if all he is doing right now is filling in the sides of his driveway to avoid any accidents or injuries why the Town Board can’t approve that part of the permit tonight.

Councilman Pluta noted that he agreed with Councilman Hawkins and asked if the permit could be approved with contingencies so that the driveway part can be taken care of. He stated that an approval can be made with the condition that it’s less than 1 acre and then Deputy Code Enforcement Officer Lisowski can approve it.

Supervisor Eagan stated that it has to be subject to TVGA’s report. Supervisor Eagan requested that Paul Reinecke be given a copy of the report so he understands what information is still required.
Town Attorney Downey stated that TVGA reviewed the project as given to them. If there are any other concerns, you are almost doing a condition upon a condition. We will also need to make sure that he does not dump into the wetlands.

Supervisor Eagan noted that Paul Reinecke’s driveway is several hundred feet away from the creek. He asked what part of the driveway was being worked on.

Paul Reinecke noted that it’s about ¾ of the way back.

Councilman Pluta asked Town Attorney Downey if this request was given to TVGA only because of the size of the project. Would it have gone to TVGA if it were less than 1 acre?

Town Clerk Shenk noted that if there is a SEQR filed on the application, which is a requirement of this application, than it is referred to the Town Engineer.

Town Attorney Downey stated that some of these issues may be taken care of, but there may still be some actions that TVGA will want the applicant to take care of.

Supervisor Eagan stated that we just want to make sure that everything is done properly. He suggested that Paul Reinecke work with Deputy Code Enforcement Officer Lisowski. Supervisor Eagan stated that it shouldn’t take long to respond to TVGA’s issues.

Bill Forness, 9534 West Hill Road, stated that when he says ¾ he’s definitely way up on the Boston State Road side. He’s talking about being within one acre of disturbance and it’s all parallel to Boston State Road. If he fills in the wetlands it’s his responsibility.

Supervisor Eagan stated that the town can’t issue a permit that pertains to the wetlands.

Bill Forness stated that if he accidently fills in the wetlands, that’s his issue.

Town Attorney Downey stated that he disagreed. He stated that there are actually two types of wetlands. This case right now is the only stakes that were are looking at. There are actually Federal in certain cases that comes into play. We are not allowed to give a permit that violates that.

Supervisor Eagan asked how big is the pond.

Paul Reinecke stated maybe a half acre. We were just talking about it for the future. I don’t even have plans for that right now.

Deputy Code Enforcement Officer Lisowski stated that it would behoove Paul Reinecke to complete the driveway first than a year or two down the road work on the pond.

Councilwoman Dobson asked if a special meeting could be scheduled if all the issues are taken care of so he wouldn’t have to wait two more weeks.

Supervisor Eagan stated yes, if we have to have a special meeting to get you the permit and you meet the conditions, we will do that.

Town Attorney Downey stated that Paul Reinecke should amend his application so that whatever you are talking about today should be reflected on your application as well as the SEQR form. This way you are protected because we know what were approving. Completing the application correctly now will be better for all of us.

A motion was made by Councilman Hawkins and was seconded by Supervisor Eagan to accept the letter of resignation from Jonathan King from the Planning Board.

There will also be some handicap parking spaces installed there as well. The new stairs on the front of the building have been recently completed and the back entrance is being totally renovated with new sidewalks and entrance to accommodate handicapped accessibility for all.

If anyone is interested in volunteering, please call Cathy Maghran. Highway Superintendent Telaak stated that Hamburg Highway Superintendent, Jim Connolly, will ask his Town Board to pass a resolution allowing the Town of Boston to borrow a bucket truck and manpower to help put up the lights.

Councilwoman Maghran noted that Herb Klein has offered to have a group of people help him install the Christmas light silhouettes along with the manger.

Highway Superintendent Telaak noted that no bids were received for the surplus wood. An additional display ad will be placed in the Pennysaver.

Highway Superintendent Telaak noted that the highway department has had ten workers for the past fifteen years, but only nine workers for the past four years. He also noted that adding one more person will really affect the way we do our work in a safe and timely manner. He stated that eight workers are not enough for plowing and completing all the services. He hopes to hire one more person.

A motion was made by Councilman Pluta and was seconded by Supervisor Eagan to instruct Town Engineer TVGA to inspect the foundation of the Historical Society Building and report back to the Town Board.

five (5) Ayes Carried

"Councilman Pluta on the recommendation of Town Attorney Downey noted that because there is funding for the Boston Community Days in the 2009 budget that he make mention that he is the Chairman of this committee."

Boston Community Days is a joke, I am sure there was no money made last year except to line certain people's pockets. Why in the world the town board sheep would approve a budget with funding for this event?

Just plain Stupid...

[sneakers77]

Why didn't the Town Atty. recommend Councilman Pluta that he make mention in the town board minutes that he gave away taxpayer money when he donated a fire truck to another town?

The Town Attorney is appointed by Little Hitler and lives in Eagan's back pocket.

Hence he does what little hitler wants. Just like the town board sheep

Did anyone notify "Councilwoman Dobson" that such important matters were to be voted on at this board meeting???????? Or did she just decide to take the night off????????

Maybe she should have been the one getting notified directing her to attend all agenda reviews and board meetings, not Telaak........:rolleyes:

[Iknow]

Dobson is on her way out this year along with Hawkins and Eagan. Teelak is a elected official, why should he answer to Little Hitler?

Its interesting when the hole thing went down with Wayne Krietzbender, Little Hilter got as far away as possible. Now, he hassles Teelak every chance he gets. Little Hilter is a stealing, corrupt, back stabbing piece of crap. Not one town board meeting did they question Pluto for giving away a fire truck to a town were he owns land in exchange for a lower assessment. Can you imagine if Teelak gave away an old truck?

Spread the word around town, "Get Rid of Eagan, Hawkins and Dobson" break up the cartel and isolate Junk Yard dog Pluto....

Another meeting were Pluto plugs his wife's Book and she is using the Boston library for a book signing and making money on it. I can see now why she got fired from Key Bank... $$$$ Picket and boycott the book signing....

Interesting how there in no town board meeting minutes on the town web site for the month of January. With all the help in the town clerks office you would think that this would get accomplished immediately for the public to read. Also interesting the February Meeting has been cancelled along with all the other February Meetings since Little Hilter has been elected.

I wonder what Little Hilter is up to now?

1. Call Meeting to Order.
2. Roll Call.

4. Other Preliminary Matters.

ITEM NO. II REGULAR BUSINESS
1. Correction and Adoption of the Minutes 1/7/09, 1/9/09 & 1/13/09.
2. Consideration of all Fund Bills.


DEMOCRAT TOWN CLERK Dave Shenk usually waits till the DEMOCRATIC CONTROLLED town board approves the minutes from the previous board meetings before he posts them on the web page. The board probably approved these minutes at the January 21 meeting. Its been almost three weeks and he has 3 deputy clerks in his office working for him. I also find it odd with all his help these minutes aren't posted yet. :confused:

I'm guessing town DEMOCRATIC CHAIRMAN TOWN SUPERVISOR Bill Eagan and the DEMOCRATIC CONTROLLED town board cancelled the Feb. meeting due to the fact that the Association of Towns Meeting is in NYC that week, and some board members will be attending it.

"Haxton Stays in Spotlight"

"Still its a source of contention for some residents that Eagan(Lackawanna Development Director), who also is the Town of Boston Supervisor, does not attend City of Lackawanna Council meetings"
"He doesnt live in the city. You know Ive complained about this so many times. Why cant we just rescind his pay?" said Alex J. David of Fireston Street"

but at Eagan's other public servant job he doesnt attend any of there meetings. Seems like the old double standard...

It just gives the appearance of a poorly run government.

First you approve the minutes of a meeting, then you rescind the minutes of the same meeting, then you table the minutes of the same meeting.

And lets not forget all five of them have been hashing this over in agenda review for the past hour or so.

But whats most disturbing is that it has to be tabled because it needs to be reviewed by the town clerk?

This meeting took place on Jan. 7, 2009. That was 2 weeks before this meeting.

And lets not forget the town clerk has THREE DEPUTY CLERKS.

What exactly is going on in the clerks office on a daily basis????????????

The Town of Boston residents deserve better................

[Iknow]

Still no minutes posted for the 13th meeting or for the two special meetings Jan 7 & 9.

Now if any voting happened at the special meetings the minutes have to be made public. I would say there hiding something from the public.

I will happen to be in NYC the same time as the Conference of Towns and Villages on business. I will see if any of the Town Board is there on our tax dollars overnight after they voted no overnight travel for 2009. Hopefully that will be Eagan's last trip on our tax dollars.

Emergency Special Meeting of the Boston Town Board
January 9, 2009 11:00 A.M.
Boston Town Hall

An Emergency Special Meeting of the Boston Town Board was called due to the Highway Superintendent’s unannounced decision to stop snow plowing various town owned parking areas.

Present: Jim Pluta. Rich Hawkins, Cathy Dobson, William Eagan, Cathy Maghran

The Board directed Supervisor Eagan to take meeting minutes.

Supervisor Eagan noted for the record that all board members were contacted as soon as possible for this meeting.


Before I get off on a rant here, lets be clear on one thing. This meeting is not an executive session. It is a special meeting. With that being said it is a typical friday morning at the town hall at 11:00 AM.

The Town of Boston Taxpayers have funded these positions in the 2009 budget:

Town Clerk: $43,515/yr
Asst to Supervisor: $29,750/yr
Deputy Town Clerk: $29,750/yr
Deputy Town Clerk Part Time (2): $12.75/hr.


If we have all these employees are on the payroll, why was the supervisor directed to take the minutes of the meeting?

Where is everybody? Home? Lunch? Break? :confused::confused:

Or did this violate open meetings law?

Was a notice posted?

This is poor government.
