Next Village Comp Plan Meeting Is May 1

Thu, 04/24/2025 - 15:10

The community has been invited to share its priorities for East Hampton Village at a virtual workshop on May 1 at 6:30 p.m. as part of the village’s work toward updating its comprehensive plan. 

The plan was last updated in 2002. The update, guided by the consultants BFJ Planning and overseen by a committee of residents, will be based in part on comments from residents at workshops like this. A Zoom link for the meeting as well as documents related to the planning process can be found by clicking here.
