Trash Collections

Southampton Town Highway Superintendent Charlie McArdle isn’t wrong when he says that his department shouldn’t bear the cost of emptying the sidewalk trash cans along the main street business districts in Hampton Bays, Bridgehampton, East Quogue and Water Mill. Quietly and abruptly removing those garbage cans on Tumbleweed Tuesday, however, resulting in piles of trash accumulating on the concrete pads where they used to stand, in an effort to draw attention to his complaint, lacked finesse on the highway superintendent’s part. For decades — longer than many can remember — the Highway Department has maintained the sidewalks along Montauk Highway ... by Editorial Board

A Wise Investment

The Southampton Town Board’s decision to spend $15 million in Community Preservation Fund revenue to purchase the 2.5-acre “Bridge House” property in North Haven is more than a land deal — it is a statement about values.

North Haven Village Mayor Chris Fiore put it plainly when he said the village wanted to “avoid another big glass cube.” Anyone who has ... by Editorial Board

Be Heard

The Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Council is accepting comments until October 3 on its new striped bass management plan. As our fishing columnist, Mike Wright, urged last week: Every angler, both commercial and recreational, should take a few minutes to be heard about the future management of this crucial species. There might never be a more important time to speak up. Among the options on the table is “no targeting closures,” which means a complete ban on fishing for striped bass among recreational anglers, and potentially a complete ban, period, if the only fishing in the area is deemed to ... by Editorial Board

Spuds and Strides

The first one to the turn is making strides. A few others are close behind, but no runner likely will pass the leader of the race. I am standing at the corner of Ocean Road and Paul’s Lane — making sure that no entrant goes off course. This is exceedingly unlikely to happen, since pretty much everyone on the 5K loop is a familiar resident of the neighborhood. But, being a potato farmer, when I was asked to volunteer, it did seem like I was symbolically obligated to stand on the corner, because they are resurrecting the original Hamptons footrace, ... by Marilee Foster
