A Facebook post circulating in the community concerning a lost 2-year-old child is a scam, the East Hampton Town Police Department announced Monday morning.

The last time East Hampton Village updated its comprehensive plan was in 2002. While a lot has changed, as they say, much has stayed the same, including many of the issues identified in the 2002 plan — traffic, teardowns, and loss of businesses that served the local population. On Dec. 6, the village will begin the process of engaging with the community about an updated vision for the future and how to get there.  

Incumbent Representative Nick LaLota, a Republican, easily defeated his Democratic challenger, John Avlon, to be re-elected for a second term in what many believed would be a close race. As it turned out, it was not: Mr. LaLota grabbed 55.7 percent of the vote in the First Congressional District, while Mr. Avlon got 44.2 percent.

Following the re-election of State Senator Anthony Palumbo and the election of Tommy John Schiavoni to the Assembly, the South Fork will continue to be represented in Albany by both a Democrat and a Republican.
