The village has leased the lot from KeySpan Energy for parking since 2016. It became the center of controversy this week when the village petitioned the Public Service Commission to nullify a new lease on the property, held by Adam Potter through his 11 Bridge L.L.C. If the commission lets the lease stand, it will begin on Jan. 1, and the lot would be out of the village’s control for the first time since 2016.
The solution to persistent flooding at the intersection of Stephen Hand’s Path and Route 114 in East Hampton, devised by traffic engineers hired by the town, is a new drainage trunkline now being installed underneath the road that will collect runoff through a series of manholes on the east side of Stephen Hand’s Path and channel the water into the woods on the south side of Route 114.
The East Hampton Town clerk’s office is accepting applications starting today for the annual lottery for hunters who want to use firearms to hunt deer during the month of January.
The Route 114 project aims to add 50 units of housing and 100 beds for persons of moderate means and their families. It comprises two town-owned parcels, at 776 and 780 Route 114, together totaling 6.5 acres, and an adjoining two acres at 782 Route 114, owned by the Sag Harbor Community Housing Trust.
