School District Postpones Affordable Housing Forum

Tue, 10/26/2021 - 11:34

October 26, 2021

Citing inclement weather, the East Hampton School District has postponed the affordable housing forum that had initially been planned for Tuesday night. The district is seeking solutions and ideas for how to mitigate the impact of the region's too-high housing costs on its faculty and staff.

It will now take place on Tuesday, Nov. 30, at 6:30 p.m. in the high school auditorium.

Those interested in attending now have additional time to R.S.V.P. for the new date. An email can be sent to Kerri Stevens, the district clerk, at [email protected].

Really, really big.
