To Austin J. McGuire, chief of police in Sag Harbor Village: I wanted to commend you and your Traffic Control Officers for the exemplary job they are doing in the village in these challenging times.
We recognize that keeping order in a normally chaotic summer season is challenging enough. Now these fine young men and women are having to keep order when people are under the additional stresses of a global pandemic and social unrest. And they have to do it while wearing a face mask!
I’ve been a fan of, and respected, TCOs since I was a young man and listened to stories my cousin would tell me about his TCO job in Westhampton Beach. It’s clearly a thankless job, and I wanted to take this time to send a big thank you to each one of them!
While I live in North Haven, I have been working in Sag Harbor Village as a real estate agent for 20-plus years. I get my fair share of parking summonses, and know that I deserve every one I get!
Stay safe out there and keep up the great work!
Michael Daly

A Team Of RivalsThere are supporters of all three congressional candidates in the Democratic primary held last month, Bridget Fleming, Perry Gershon and Nancy Goroff. As staunchly as I am rooting for Fleming, I think the supporters should all be ready to throw...
Letting Us DownHow encouraging it was to see both sides of the political divide coming together in Southampton Village on Saturday. Led by young Mayor Jesse Warren and doctors from Stony Brook Southampton Hospital, free masks were being handed out to anyone...
Mending TimeI have lived in the same house for the last 12 years. There are six cottages that surround mine. The property is beautiful, and we all respect each other’s privacy. In all these years, I have rarely socialized with my...
