Sag Harbor Police Reports for the Week of October 23

SAG HARBOR VILLAGE — The Columbus Day weekend nor’easter roiled the waters of Sag Harbor, leaving several vessels anchored in the area in distressed positions. Police logs indicate that beginning at 10 a.m., Columbus Day morning, harbormasters responded to several distressed or misplaced vessels, starting with a 50-foot Hanse yacht discovered beached on the North Haven side of the bridge. The owner of the Arcadia was notified and the vessel was towed later that day to its proper spot on the west side of Long Wharf. Soon after spotting the beached yacht, a harbormaster came upon a 17-foot Boston Whaler ... by Staff Writer

Saying Goodbye

The Golden Pear Café in Bridgehampton will close its doors on Monday, October 27. After 30 years of faithful service, meaningful relationships and contributions to the heart of this community, we are forced to say goodbye. We have been disappointed — by a landlord who prospered alongside us for three decades, only to sever the relationship without cause or justification. It is a heartbreaking end to a remarkable chapter in The Golden Pear’s history. For 30 years, my team and I upheld every term of a triple-net lease — paying millions in rent, insurance and taxes. Through summer seasons and ... 22 Oct 2025 by Staff Writer

Something Crooked

There’s something crooked happening in the Southampton Town Council elections. In our polarized times, we’ve gotten used to the idea that there are candidates on the far left and the far right, usually represented in New York elections by the Working Families Party and the Conservative Party. Sometimes we see cross-endorsements between Democrats and Conservatives, just as in the past there were occasional cross-endorsements between Republicans and the Independence Party, usually to indicate more moderate candidates. But you never see Republicans and the Working Families Party working together. That’s because their principles are diametrically opposed. That’s what seems to be ... by Staff Writer

Ripple Effect

There’s a certain irony to the fact that local elections have the biggest direct impact on people’s lives — yet they regularly have the lowest turnout, much lower than, say, a presidential election, where every single vote is a tiny drop in an ocean of democratic decision-making. Your vote in the November 4 town elections — early voting begins October 25, which makes it even more convenient to get to the polls, compared to scrambling to cast a ballot on a single Tuesday — will determine how your property tax bill is spent, how your town will develop (or not), ... by Editorial Board

Use With Caution

Nothing happens in a vacuum, and the timing of Southampton Town’s proposed purchase of a $400,000 Lenco BearCat armored truck, coming as federal troops are on the streets in some cities and masked ICE officers appear to operate outside normal law enforcement norms, was bound to raise some concerns about the ongoing militarization of local police forces. But Southampton Town Police Chief James Kiernan has made a compelling case for the purchase: It’s a piece of equipment that might appear excessive — until the moment it’s needed. And at that moment it’s not just necessary, it likely will save lives. ... by Editorial Board

Proposal for Affordable Apartments To Be Heard Before Sag Harbor Planning Board

A proposal for a 10-unit apartment building — with half of its units set aside as affordable — will be reviewed at a presubmission conference hearing before the Sag Harbor Village Board on Tuesday, October 28, at 5 p.m. The property is owned by the estate of Rose Trunzo, and her nephew Michael Trunzo has been representing the family through the development process. The presubmission conference hearing is intended to allow the public and the board to weigh in on a proposal before a property owner files a formal application. Trunzo appeared before the board in the spring of 2024 ... by Stephen J. Kotz
