With the approach of Earth Day, the East Hampton Litter Action Committee has organized a monthlong series of roadside littler pickups.
Roadside litter is not only unsightly, it contributes to the colossal amount of plastic and other trash entering our surface water bodies and clogs our road drainage systems.
Organized litter pickups starting on April 20 and ending on May 18 are listed on the Town of East Hampton’s website. If you don’t want to join one of the organized events, reach out to your neighbors and clean up your own street. You’ll be amazed at how satisfying it is to do such an easy thing to clean up our community and help protect our environment.

One of the most obvious things people seemingly ignore is brought to attention twice in last week’s edition. Dr. Christopher Gobler once again reminded all naysayers that the housing explosion from previous decades is a major culprit [“Flesh-Eating Bacteria, Toxic...
I’m writing in response to a letter by Craig Catalanotto [“What Are We Doing?” Letters, April 18], with specific reference to his gratuitous and irrational swipe at Southampton Town Councilman Tommy John Schiavoni. Mr. Catalanotto, a Southampton Town Planning Board...
Often missing in public policy discourse is human engagement and why it’s so vital. Well-meaning officials have navigated pickleball noise fears on public property, nonconforming (now acceptable) commercial facade colors, and concerns over hanging out to consume organic wine at...
Like many in our community, we were shocked and saddened to hear that Canio’s Books will lose its lease on its current location [“Canio’s Books, Long a Sag Harbor Cultural Icon, Faces Uncertain Future as Lease Is Not Renewed,” 27east.com,...
