The East Hampton Town Board seems inclined to extend a Covid-era outdoor dining pilot program, which expired at the end of December, for another three-plus years and possibly to make it permanent.

The East Hampton Town Board has decided it’s time to restore the historic Peach House, which lies about a peach’s throw from the board’s own meeting room. The renovation could begin this fall and be completed by May 2026, at which time it will house three town offices and a reception area.

With a vote on the Montauk School’s proposed $38 million renovation bond due in about 10 days, Joshua Odom, district superintendent and school principal, addressed community members last week in support of the project.

Springs School stepped up its appearance by placing new signs at the school’s entrance on Old Stone Highway.
