BOSTON TOWNSHIP

The Township minutes are posted on our website at www.bostontownship.org and outside the fiscal office at the Boston Township Hall. Meetings are covered by the West Side Leader.

Road Department: Brush pick-up commenced on May 2 and will continue on the first Mondays of the month through October. Place cut ends toward the curb. Please, no dirt, or dirt balls and no foreign materials such as lumber, nails or barbed wire. For more information, please call the Road Department at (330) 657-2600.

Zoning Updates: The hearing before the Board of Zoning Appeals regarding the application from Senuta Property, LLC, which applied to install two double-sided billboards visible to Route 8 on Parcel #07-00108 just east of the northeast corner of the Akron-Cleveland Rd. and Barlow Rd. intersection, was continued until May 24 at the request of the applicant. Also considered on May 24 was an application for conditional use and a variance for the property located at 105 Kendall Park Rd.

Thanks, Ray and Welcome, Jay! After serving on the Board of Zoning Appeals for fifteen years, Ray Hach decided not to seek reappointment. At the trustees` meeting on May 11, Jay Littler, who has been serving as an Alternate Member of the BZA, was appointed to fill the vacant seat through June 3, 2027. We offer a tremendous thank you to Ray for his years of dedicated service to Boston Township and welcome Jay as a fully-seated member.

Summit e-Waste: The e-Waste Recycling Solutions collection box which was placed at the rear of the township property has seen much use. Obsolete electronic items (desktop computers, laptops, printers, cell phones, tablets, telephones, modems, routers, DVD players, VCRs, stereos, game consoles, cables, wires, power adapters, ink & toner cartridges, flat screen computer monitors, and batteries) can be placed in the collection box.

Akron-Cleveland Road Waterline Project: At the meeting held on May 11, the trustees signed off on the plans to extend the Cuyahoga Falls waterline along a portion of Akron-Cleveland Road. This phase of the waterline extension will go from approximately the intersection with Wyoga Lake Road to approximately 5194 Akron-Cleveland Road. Now that this plan has been signed, Cuyahoga Falls can put the project out for bids.

Joint Meeting: In order to continue the funding for the Union Cemetery Association, which manages both Cedar Grove Cemetery and Boston Cemetery, the Peninsula council must invite the township trustees to their May meeting. At the meeting held on May 10, the funding for the Union Cemetery was renewed for the next year.

Memorial Day: Please remember that after the Peninsula parade there is a parade in Boston, leaving from the former Boston Community Church at approximately 12:30 and ending at the Boston Cemetery.
