Yes, it’s true: No East Hampton Town Board members or Town Trustees showed at Truck Beach. Not one currently elected official showed again.
For the second time, I showed support, representing me personally and our ticket of Walles, Aman, Karpinski.
It was great to see this act of civil disobedience continued. It is still a disgrace to this community when the town won the court case years ago then did not immediately start eminent domain proceedings. They did not file any quitclaim deed. They took a shot at it all and struck out. This would have protected and preserved centuries-old rights.
Citations were issued this time to those who defied the court order. Will they now get the day in court they seek?
We stand with our fishermen, baymen, locals. Everyone who resides in this community. “We are the community”: Walles, Aman, Karpinski.
Thank you for your time. On to Election Day.
Joseph Karpinski

Mindless GreedFarrell strikes again, and again. As Bridgehampton residents, we’ve watched the relentless construction of increasingly larger new homes replace more modest older ones over the past 20-plus years. While they are hardly alone in this blind onslaught, the poster boy...
Pointing The FingerI know Evelyn Konrad is prosecuting a zoning dispute, but she is wrong regarding the causes of pollution in Old Town Pond (and other waters throughout Southampton Village) [“What Has Changed,” Letters, 27east.com, November 15]. Ms. Konrad answers her own...
What’s In A Word?One word can be worth 1,000 pictures, especially when omitted by The Press. “Concern for Independent Living,” the official name of the organization pushing 60-unit “workforce” housing on County Road 39, dropped “Independent” from its name when it was exposed...
