Southampton Scored $19 Million Grant for Riverside Sewers

Southampton Town has been awarded a $19 million grant to help fund the construction of a sewer system and sewage treatment plant for Riverside — the cornerstone of the town’s decade-long drive for a sweeping revitalization of the blighted hamlet. The town recently won a lawsuit brought by Riverhead Town seeking to stop the Riverside sewer system, which will be able to treat the daily sewage from more than 700 new residences and hundreds of thousands of square feet of new commercial businesses.

A Washington Post story last week estimated that it will cost the economy up to $14 billion. The Congressional Budget Office says up to 750,000 federal workers are being furloughed or required to work without pay. The impact on air traffic controllers is starting to affect travel just as the holiday season begins. But none of that is as worrisome as the impact on the poorest among us, who are about to see the challenge of simply putting food on the ... by Editorial Board

Expect Delays

Anyone who commutes east and west on the South Fork daily, or who needs goods or services that come by truck — so, really, everyone — endured several days of stress.

By now, everyone is aware: Heavy rains last week caused erosion along the bridge abutments on the northeast side of the canal. Two westbound lanes of the highway were closed for days, with ... by Editorial Board

The Westhampton Beach golf team was primed to move on to the finals of the Section XI Team Tournament at Pine Hills Golf and Country Club in Manorville on Monday. The No. 2 Hurricanes led No. 3 Sachem by as many as seven shots in the morning semifinal round, but a fervent comeback by Sachem, particularly on the ninth and final hole of the round, wound up being the difference. Sachem trailed by one stroke going into that last hole but Sachem’s No. 6, senior Gavin Nerko, parred to score a 50 and gain two strokes, leading to a 6-3 ... by Drew Budd
