BRIDGE ST. PROJECT TOO INTENSE

BY KATHRYN G. MENU

A PROPOSAL BY UPTOWN PILATES LLC to expand and connect three buildings at 23 Bridge Street in Sag Harbor is too intense a development for the low-lying property, members of both the Sag Harbor Planning Board and Zoning Board of Appeals said during separate meetings this month.

Concerns over a lack of parking, the intensity of use and the need to raise the grade of the land four-feet to accommodate an on-site septic system were issues raised by both boards, who have forwarded their comments to attorney Brian DeSesa and voted

Boards cite lack of parking and flooding as key problems separately to take the application off their agenda for the time being.

The 23 Bridge Street property currently hosts three separate buildings with a gross floor area of 2,772 square feet — and two small sheds — on a property just shy of 0.3 acres. The proposal before the Planning Board and ZBA is to renovate, expand and connect the three buildings, and would

increase the gross floor area of the structures to 4,427 square feet, a 59.7 percent increase.

Unless the Sag Harbor Village Board of Trustees agreed to extend its wastewater treatment service to the property, an on-site septic system would be required to support the development.

To install an on-site septic system — in a part of the village dangerously close to groundwater and prone to flooding — would require erecting a fourfoot concrete retaining wall around the property and raising the grade to meet the top of the retaining wall.

South Fork

Push Is On for More Wind Farms Proposals include 100-turbine installation 18 miles off ocean beach

BY MICHAEL WRIGHT

THREE WIND ENERGY development companies have asked the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) to make the federally controlled sea floor off the South Fork available for wind farm leases.

The BOEM is currently considering whether to create new lease areas for wind farm development on the sea floor in several large sectors off the shores of Long Island and New Jersey available to would-be wind farm developers.

Last year, the agency put out a “call” to developers for nominations of possible new wind farm locations—effectively asking development companies to point to areas where they would be interested in putting wind farms.

The call areas are regions of sea floor where conditions are suitable for the placement of turbines — bounded by

depth contours, shipping lanes and legal boundaries that cleaved the space into four sectors.

One of the four sectors that BOEM is considering lies directly south of the entire South Fork. Called “Fairways North” in BOEM documents, the sector starts about 18 miles south of the South Fork and extends out to more than 30 miles from shore in some portions. It stretches from approximately south of Moriches Inlet east to approximately south of Montauk Point.

The New York State Energy Research and Development Agency, or NYSERDA, had considered the same four areas for possible wind farm lease areas in 2017 and 2018 and ended up recommending that Fairways North and another area off Eastern Long Island not be used for wind farm development. Instead, they chose to favor the two much larger, westernmost areas in the New York Bight,

where hundreds of turbines could be built closer to the New York City metro area.

But BOEM did not drop the eastern areas from consideration when it held its call, and three companies submitted rough proposals for developments of wind farms—ranging from 30 turbines to dozens.

Avangrid Renewables, an Oregonbased wind developer that already owns a lease area southeast of Block Island and has an 80-turbine wind farm called Vineyard Wind in the works, submitted the broadest proposal, calling for filling nearly the entirety of the Fairways North sector with more than 100 turbines.

The company also submitted nominations for large swaths of the other three call areas.

religious prayers.

“They assumed that a Jewish person owned the store,” Ms. Katz said, nodding her head. “My mother would get on the phone and call East Hampton, Southampton, Hampton Bays— they would always be able to get 10 [Jewish] men together.”

“It was the way things were done,” she added.

Even during World War II, when Jews were the subject of mass murder at the hands of Adolf Hitler, and antiSemitism was front and center globally, Ms. Katz, though aware of her Jewishness, said she and her family felt at home in Sag Harbor.

“There was actually less separatism in those days than there is now,” she told the room. “People were very busy putting food on the table.”

She recounted that her mother used to close the Fil-Net Shoppe for two days during the Passover holiday — and that the community understood

With its almost austere simplicity, its unusual 12-over-12 sash windows, its peeling gray paint, rotting white trim and weedy growth along its picket fence, the old house just south of Sag Harbor’s business district at 156 Main Street has stood empty and forlorn for years, its front door padlocked from the outside.

Its sorry status as a crumbling relic from the village’s whaling days is about to change, according to local architect Anthony Vermandois. He informally discussed the property with the Sag Harbor Board of Historic Preservation and Architectural Review on June 13 to get a sense of his client’s options for the structure’s restoration and renovation.

“I think we got in just in time to salvage the bulk of the structure of the house” and much of the interior trim, he told the board on June 13.

He told the board he had thought the house might be one of the very rare 18th-century structures in the village, with its hand-hewn floor beams, but when he opened up the walls, he had found the framing to be “all machine cut” and therefore probably early 19th century.

He said the street side façade was as much as two feet higher than the original structure and that he believed the windows were “largely intact early 19th century,” but that the presence of asbestos in the glazing made him wonder if they were “not original to the house.”

“We don’t want to save the windows” if they turn out to be “a mid20th-century replacement,” he said.

Calling it “a Union Street 2.0” — a reference to the total restoration of the Italianate gem known as the Morpurgo House on Union Street behind

Sag Harbor

Village Is Still a Special Place for Jews

BY ALISHA STEINDECKER

Every Friday night for Shabbat services, Debbie and Steve Woloschin make the trek to Temple Adas Israel in Sag Harbor Village from Remsenburg.

It takes them about 45 minutes.

There are closer temples, including the Hampton Synagogue in Westhampton Beach and the Chabad of Southampton Jewish Center. But they feel most at home in Sag Harbor.

“Ever since we joined, the people there, they go out of the way to welcome you and make you feel like family,” Ms. Woloschin said. In fact, almost immediately after joining, they were invited to a fellow member’s home for Shabbat dinner.

Sag Harbor Village has always been a welcoming place for Jews, according to 89-year-old Gertrude Katz, who spoke at Temple Adas Israel on Friday evening about growing up Jewish in the village.

Ms. Katz’s parents opened the FilNet Shoppe, a women’s clothing store,

Gertrude Katz looks back on a time of less separatism on Main Street in March 1930. Her grandparents, who came from Poland, lived on the North Fork in Greenport, which also had a large Jewish population at the time.

The Fil-Net Shoppe — named after Ms. Katz’s parents, Phil Rosenstein and Nettie Katz — stood right next to the Sag Harbor Cinema, and she and her family lived above the store. At that time, many local families lived above stores on Main Street.

Ms. Katz, whose late husband, Donald Katz, served as president of Temple Adas Israel for 25 years, recalled that when summer visitors would arrive in town for the season, they would know to come to the Fil-Net Shoppe to ask for a minyan, a group of 10 Jewish men that is often needed for certain

An East End Walk for Interdependence

Sylvester and Co. 103 Main Street, Sag Harbor

JUNE 27, 2019

T

he East End Walk for Interdependence will return to Sag Harbor for a second year and will be held on Sunday, July 14, at 3 p.m., beginning at the John A. Ward Memorial Windmill next to Windmill Beach, organizers announced this week.

The Walk for Interdependence was created to show the commitment, in the face of a national climate threatening separation and isolation, of East Enders to living

and working as neighbors and communities. Continuing the theme, “Keep Families Together,” the walk will highlight ongoing issues with immigration and detention, the rights of African-Americans and other mothers of color incarcerated and separated from their children, and the harsh reality of missing and murdered indigenous women, said organizers in a press release.

“When our laws and policies systematically put people in cages,

make lives invisible, separate families — that is a form of violence against us all. Interdependence means that we need each other’s health, sovereignty, and liberation for all of our well-being and that of our families,” said Ella Engel-Snow, an East End artist and activist and one of the walk’s organizers.

“Kids learn better when the family is together. Period,” said Bonnie Cannon, Director, Bridgehampton Childcare and Recreational Center.

Suffolk County District Attorney Timothy D. Sini announced last week that Chace Quinn, also known as Chase Quinn, 20, of the Shinnecock Indian Reservation, has been sentenced to eight to 24 years in prison in connection to the fatal hit-and-run in Southampton in 2018 that claimed the life of a Pennsylvania man.

In his release about the sentencing, Mr. Sini characterized Mr. Quinn as a Bloods street gang member.

“This individual is a dangerous gang member and a career criminal,” Mr. Sini said. “He showed no regard for human life when he callously left the victim to die on the side of the road and continued throughout this case to show a blatant disregard for the law and for the consequences of his actions. Today’s sentence ensures that he will no longer be a threat to our community’s safety.”

Mr. Quinn pleaded guilty on May 8 to aggravated vehicular homicide, leaving the scene of an accident resulting in death, intimidating a witness and driving while intoxicated — all felony charges. He was sentenced last Thursday, June 20, by Suffolk County Acting Supreme Court Justice Fernando Camacho.

According to police, on April 5, 2018, Mr. Quinn — driving a 2013 Jeep Wrangler eastbound on County Road 39 in Southampton — struck and killed Joseph Lynn McAlla, 63, of Clifford, Pennsylvania. Police said Mr. Quinn was driving while intoxicated at the time of the accident and left the scene without reporting the crash to law enforcement.

Police received reports of a deceased male lying in the roadway at around 2:30 a.m. Mr. McAlla had just completed a delivery of stone to Southampton Masonry, said police, and was crossing County Road 39 when he was struck.

Following an investigation by the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office, Southampton Town Police Department and the New York State Police, Mr. Quinn was identified as the driver responsible for the crash. He was arrested by New York State Troopers on May 29, 2018, at approximately 2:30 a.m. on Sunrise Highway while attempting to flee the state to live with family

members in Georgia.

“This was a collaborative effort between the prosecutors, Maggie Bopp and James Curtin, and the law enforcement agencies that investigated this hit-and-run, including the Southampton Town Police and New York State Police,” Mr. Sini said in a release. “Thanks to that partnership and their dedication, this defendant was brought to justice.”

• Daniel M. Feder, 56, of the Bronx, was arrested by East Hampton Village Police on June 22 at 8:47 a.m. and charged with burglary in the third degree, a felony, and criminal possession of stolen property in the fifth degree, a misdemeanor. According to the police report, Mr. Feder burglarized a private cabana at the Maidstone Golf Club at 50 Beach Lane in East Hampton Village. He was located hiding in the brush area near the 17th fairway of the golf club. He was positively identified and taken to headquarters. Mr. Feder will be arraigned on June 27 in East Hampton Town Justice Court.

• Felicia N. Mais, 30, of East Hampton was arrested by Sag Harbor Village Police on Friday, June 21, at 1:18 a.m. and charged with two misdemeanor counts of driving while intoxicated, for aggravated unlicensed operation in the third degree, also a misdemeanor, and for refusing a pre-screen test, a violation. According to police, they pulled Ms. Mais over on Main Street after she failed to stop at a stop sign at the corner of Bay and Main streets.

Police said she appeared intoxicated and refused to be screened by police. She was arrested and brought to police headquarters, where she submitted to a chemical test. Ms. Mais was released on her own recognizance later that morning after being arraigned at Sag Harbor Village Justice Court.

• Adrian L. Rodriguez, 41, of East Hampton was arrested

by East Hampton Town Police on June 20 at 3:29 a.m. on Abraham’s Path in East Hampton and charged with criminal contempt in the second degree while disobeying a court order, a misdemeanor. According to the police report, the defendant had been served an order of protection in East Hampton Town Justice Court on May 16. The defendant wrong-

fully and intentionally disobeyed and violated the court mandate by entering and remaining inside the residence of the person with the order of protection, police said.

• An unknown person threw a glass, Modelo-brand beer bottle at a tinted window at Sag Harbor’s Corner Bar between 1:30 a.m. and 6:22 a.m. on Saturday, June 22, according to a report filed with the Sag Harbor Village Police Department. According to police, the beer bottle label was found in the shattered glass in the front portion of the window, although interior glass in the double-pane window remained undamaged.

Police were able to obtain video from a neighboring business showing a subject crossing from the west side of Main Street, stopping in the middle of the roadway, and throwing a beer bottle toward the Corner Bar; however, the business owner had already informed police that they did not want to press charges.

• A woman reported to East Hampton Town Police on June 18 at 3:49 p.m. that while she was stopped in traffic at the intersection of Route 114, a black SUV, possibly a Chevy Tahoe, rear-ended her, then fled the scene north on Route 114 toward Sag Harbor.

Rear end damage was noted, and police canvassed the area for the vehicle but didn’t find it.

• A 1992 Alfa Romeo, owned by a Sag Harbor resident, was hit by an unknown vehicle on Saturday, June 22, while it was parked on Suffolk Street between 11:40 p.m. and 12:44 a.m.

• The side screen door and an interior window pane at a Harrison Street home in Sag Harbor were damaged by an unknown object between 3:15 and 3:35 a.m. on Sunday, June 23. According to the police report, the owner of the home reported that his daughter awoke to loud sounds to discover the damage. Police canvassed the area with negative results.

• State police are investigating a death that Sag Harbor Village Police said this week does not appear to be criminal in nature.

Village police were called on Monday, June 24, around 6 p.m. by a Hampton Street resident who reported finding the victim in his bed.

Code Officers Extend Role to Aid in Crisis

Planners See a Need For a Roundabout

Coordinate social services and help those at risk

BY PETER BOODY

Southampton Town’s code enforcement department does more than answer complaints about code violations, its top official, Steven Troyd, told the Bridgehampton Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) at its monthly meeting Monday night. It also coordinates services for seniors who live alone and can’t take care of themselves or their properties.

There’s “a whole process of reaching out to help people. That’s where we’re going with code enforcement,” said Mr. Troyd, whose title is public safety and emergency management administrator. He was joined at the meeting by his department’s enforcement officer, Mickey Chih, who talked about his enforcement efforts.

There’s “a degree of coordination that code enforcement is providing with different departments and jurisdictions,” added Town Councilman Tommy John Schiavoni, who also attended the CAC session. “It’s working out well.” He called it a “fantastic” effort.

With a visit from Mary O’Brien and Olivia Motch of the town’s Dark Skies Committee also on the agenda, the CAC members were particularly interested in how to deal with property owners who violate the town’s 26-page lighting outdoor code. One person at the CAC meeting singled out a large house on Ocean Road, the former Topping farmhouse site, telling Mr. Troyd the place was “lit up like a Christmas tree” all night, every night.

“Give me the address and we’ll check into it,” Mr. Troyd told her.

Except for security lighting, which must be connected to a motion sensor and a timer to turn it off once it has been activated, the code requires “non-essential” outdoor lighting at both residential and commercial properties to be turned off at midnight. Speaking of enforcement, Mr. Chih talked about Mattress Firm, the former Sleepy’s mattress retailer on Montauk Highway, which he said “has a multitude” of illegal signs. “He’s my pet peeve,” he said, calling him “the worst sign violator I’ve ever seen. I try to keep him in check.”

While lighting and signage violations in Bridgehampton were on the CAC members’ minds, they reacted enthusiastically to the news that Mr. Troyd’s department also steps in to

help people who can’t keep up with their properties.

“You don’t think of this with code enforcement,” said CAC chair Pamela Harwood. She urged Mr. Troyd to spread the word about it and she called on the press to publicize it.

“It’s a story that needs to be told every year,” she said.

Reviewing some recent examples of the department’s “higher purpose,” as he put it, Mr. Troyd said he and his staff have “put together working groups” that include the county’s Department of Social Services, Adult Protective Services (APS), social workers from the area’s two hospitals, town fire marshals and code enforcement personnel to “talk to people in crisis or at risk in their community, people who get separated from their family, through time and distance, and they’re alone,” either boarding or in their own homes “that are in very bad shape and they have fire issues, and they’re collecting newspapers for some reason, and throwing trash in the basement because they can’t afford to have it taken away.”

He told of a woman, a hoarder, who was a regular visitor to the town’s Flanders Senior Center, where director Liz Dwyer was working to assist her. Mr. Troyd’s department was also aware of her because of code violations at her home.

“We didn’t know two departments in the same town were working on the same person,” he said, “until there was an incident where she was found” pinned for two days under her own belongings in her home. “My guys went there and found her; they got her to the hospital and they got her united with her family in the Southwest somewhere,” he said.

In another case, a man who also was a hoarder and with infections that were not healing refused to go to the hospital. A team that included 12 people from various agencies including code enforcement finally persuaded him to go. “He hasn’t been home in a couple of months now, but he’s healing.” Mr. Troyd said, adding that he speaks to him regularly and has gotten his son and brother involved in the matter.

“It’s a whole process of reaching out to people to help this person,” Mr. Troyd said.

“That’s a success story and that’s where we’re going with code enforcement.”

East Hampton Town planners want the Town Board to consider creating a traffic circle, or roundabout, at the intersection of Stephen Hands Path, Long Lane and Two Holes of Water Road.

Highway and planning officials pitched the idea to the Town Board last week, saying it would make the intersection safer, ease chronic speeding on the roadway, and allow the installation of better drainage and the restoration of vegetation along some of the roadsides.

“This time of year, even at the beginning of summer, it’s difficult to get out of Long Lane and Two Holes of Water,” Highway Superintendent Steve Lynch said on Tuesday, June 18. “As we get into July, it’s almost impossible to get out of Two Holes of Water. Nobody is doing 30 miles per hour there.”

Mr. Lynch said the town right-ofway on Stephen Hands Path is wide enough that the roundabout could be made sufficiently large to allow long trucks to navigate it and for traffic to flow through it easily.

Town Planning Director Marguerite Wolffsohn said the town can explore a wide array of layouts, including some specifically designed for rural roads, and that the project will help with the delays and dangerous situations for those trying to pull onto heavily trafficked Stephen Hands Path in summer.

“Roundabouts are way safer than regular intersections,” she said. “The show ‘MythBusters’ did an experiment with a roundabout, a four-way stop and a traffic cop, and the roundabout won, hands down, in terms of the amount of traffic that moved through it.”

She noted that the intersection had once had thick growths of trees and bushes around it, until a fatal accident spurred former Highway Superintendent Chris Russo to remove vast swaths of vegetation. People were outraged at the time, she recalled, but ultimately found the views across farm fields that it created a beloved improvement.

Both Councilwoman Sylvia Overby and Councilman Jeff Bragman raised concerns about the impact on the rural character of the area, with Mr. Bragman saying he was against the idea at first blush.

“I drive that intersection every day.

And I know the benefits of roundabouts, but I also know the benefit of that intersection. Going in either direction, it’s one of the most sterling rural views that we have in the Town of East Hampton,” he said. “It is a scenic area of local significance.

The town has spent dollars acquiring lands along Long Lane that are part of our endowment.”

Supervisor Peter Van Scoyoc said that the growing hazards at the intersection demand that something be done to make it safer and quicker for cars to enter Stephen Hands Path from the side streets, but he noted that making the roadway a four-way stop would back up traffic in both directions to the point that it could cause gridlock where the road meets Route 114 to the south and Cedar Street to the north.

He noted that the roundabout built on Scuttle Hole Road, while it has had its critics for its aesthetics and problems that its small size has caused for large buses and trucks, has eased the long backups that used to build on Mitchell Lane.

“There is nothing rural about this spot in July,” he said of the Stephen Hands Path corridor. “I’m open to addressing this problem, because I think it is a problem that requires us to address it.”

Mr. Lynch and Ms. Wolffsohn said the Town Board would need to allocate funding for some preliminary engineering work to be done, so that the options for a potential roundabout’s cosmetic and traffic routing design can be explored by the town.

“At this point, you are up to exploring the alternatives looking at different designs and seeing what works,” Ms. Wolffsohn said. “Yes, you want to come up with something that doesn’t look like an urban intersection. I think it’s possible — but let’s take a look at it and see.”

Move Forward on CPF for Affordable Housing

STRAWBERRY TEA AT CORMARIA

james kearney photo

Solveig Linden, Elsie McKechnie and May McDougall at the Cormaria Center for Spiritual and Human Growth’s annual Strawberry Tea, held on Thursday, June 20 at the Center on Bay Street in Sag Harbor.

Southampton

Both houses of the New York State legislature have passed bills pushed

by Assemblyman Fred W. Thiele Jr. of Sag Harbor with the help of Senator Kenneth P. LaValle of Port Jefferson to allow the five East End towns to establish community housing funds to support affordable housing.

The funds would be financed by a .5-percent tax on real estate sales in addition to the 2-percent tax now imposed on sales to support the East End towns’ individual Community Preservation Funds (CPF).

Based on 2017 real estate sales, the housing tax would generate about $20 million for community housing initiatives across the East End towns.

Under the legislation, which by midweek had not yet been signed by Governor Cuomo, it would be up to each town board to decide whether or not voters should be asked to approve the funding mechanism in a binding referendum.

The revenue could be used to assist first-time homebuyers; build community housing for sale or rent; provide financial assistance as part of a public/private partnership including employee housing; rehabilitate existing buildings for community housing; and providing housing counseling.

Mr. Thiele first proposed a community housing fund in 2018 when he introduced a study bill in the Assembly.

He said this week he introduced this year’s version of the bill after exploring the concept with local government officials, people in the real estate industry, housing advocates and East End civic leaders.

A CPF tax exemption currently in place on lower-priced properties would be increased for the housing fund tax, from $250,000 to $400,000 in the towns of East Hampton, Shelter Island and Southampton and from $150,000 to $280,000 in Riverhead

and Southold.

Before implementing a housing fund, each town will be required to adopt a community housing plan and appoint a community housing advisory board.

CPF Revenues Down

The stream of Community Preservation Fund revenues in the five East End towns to support land and historic preservation as well as water quality projects fell by 27.4 percent to $29.42 million in the first five months in 2019 compared to the $40.53 million collected during the same period last year.

For the month of May, revenues were down from $8.94 million in 2018 to $5.48 million, a drop of 38.7 percent.

“CPF revenues have declined for five consecutive months when compared with 2018,” commented Assembly-

man Fred W. Thiele Jr. “While there is wide speculation as to why this decline has occurred, there is no doubt that the six-year streak of $90-plus million in revenues a year is in serious jeopardy.”

Since its inception is 1999, the 2-percent CPF tax has generated $1.411 billion in revenues in the five East End towns. Its state authorization expires in 2050.

Town by town, Southampton’s revenues for 2019 so far is down 31.4 percent from $22.07 million to $15.14 million in the same period last year; East Hampton’s is down 27.1 percent from $12.86 million to $9.38 million; Southold’s is down 6.3 percent from $3.33 million to $3.12 million; Riverhead’s is down 29.8 percent from $1.81 million to $1.27 million.

The exception to the rule is Shelter Island, where revenues were up 8.5 percent from $.47 million to $.51 million.

OK Ban on Outdoor Southampton / East Hampton Release of Balloons May See 3-Way Southampton Super Race Town Board may also consider a ban on sales Rana loses bid for Democratic and GOP lines for justice in East Hampton

BY GREG WEHNER

Southampton Town Board members approved a ban on the intentional outdoor release of all balloons on Tuesday, an effort to reduce pollution and protect the environment.

The ban makes it illegal to release most types of balloons, whether they are made of latex, rubber or Mylar, or anything else that could be filled with helium, hydrogen, oxygen or nitrous oxide, and sealed at the neck.

Some exceptions to the rule include scientific balloons, hot air balloons or those which are released indoors.

If anyone is caught releasing balloons intentionally, they could face stiff penalties — including a fine of up to $1,000, as many as 15 days in jail, or both.

Over the course of two public hearings, at which only a small number of residents spoke, the consensus was that the rules are not strict enough.

Randy Johnston moved to Southampton three months ago and said he sees balloons frequently when he

takes walks along the beach. He was even more surprised, he said, when he and his wife went shopping and saw helium balloons being sold in the grocery store.

Rather than just ban the intentional release, Mr. Johnston suggested the balloons be banned altogether.

Town Board member Christine Scalera said on Monday that the board plans to eventually look into a ban on the sale of balloons in the town, although she doesn’t typically support bans. “It’s got to be compelling for me to be able to get behind something like that,” she said.

Ms. Scalera said the ban on stirrers, plastic straws and styrofoam had a great deal of support, and the local restaurants were on board with getting rid of their plastic stock and switching over to alternatives.

“I anticipate the same thing with the balloon ban,” she said. “I think everybody is in support of that.

“Whether or not I would support prohibiting the sale is a little bit of a stretch for me, but we’ll just have to see what happens,” she added.

After Tuesday’s primary election, Southampton Town Highway Superintendent Alex Gregor appeared to have won a place on the November ballot as the Independence Party candidate for town supervisor.

Challenging incumbent Jay Schneiderman’s endorsement as the Independence Party candidate in his bid for a third two-year term, Mr. Gregor narrowly won the voting, 85 to 78.

If Mr. Gregor holds on to his margin after about 100 remaining absentee ballots are counted on July 8, he will force a three-way race in November.

Mr. Schneiderman would still appear on the ballot as the Democratic nominee and on the Working Families and Conservative lines. Veteran North Sea fireman and fire commissioner Gregory Robins, a retired teacher, is the Republican nominee.

Also in Tuesday’s primary voting, veteran East Hampton Town Justice Lisa Rana, a Republican, lost her bid to seek re-election on both the GOP and Democratic lines by failing to oust the

Ask the experts:

Lyme & TickBorne Diseases A FREE EVENT!

Democratic Committee’s nominee, Andrew Strong. He won decisively, 986 to 394, with 71.45 percent of the vote, not including absentee ballots.

Justice Rana also serves as a judge in Sag Harbor’s village justice court and won reelection with no opposition on June 18. She also will be running for reelection to her town post on the Conservative and Independence lines.

All but one of the five challengers to the 13 Democratic Committee nominees for Town Trustee in both East Hampton and Southampton towns lost their bids for a place on the general election ballot.

The exception was challenger Fred Havemeyer in Southampton Town, a former trustee, who was joined in challenging the committee’s line up of four nominees by another former board member, Eric Schultz.

In Southampton, the Democratic Committee did not have a full slate for the five seats on the Board of Trustees because nominee Eileen Duffy, infuriating the committee, dropped out in a failed bid that was eventually ruled fraudulent to force a primary

for a Town Board nomination.

Mr. Havemeyer came in fifth out of six candidates in Tuesday’s voting.

Barring any change after the absentee votes are counted, he will appear on the November ballot as one of the Democratic nominees. Mr. Schultz placed sixth. The top vote getter in the polling was incumbent Ann Welker, with 640 votes, followed by Andrew J. Brosnan, 521; Bill Pell, 476; and David Mayer, 451. Mr. Havemeyer had 402 and Mr. Schultz 397.

In East Hampton Town, all of the Democratic committee’s nine choices won decisively with incumbent Susan McGraw-Keber polling highest with 1,078 votes followed by cross-endorsed Republican incumbent James Grimes, 1,042; incumbent Bill Taylor with 1,029; incumbent Francis Bock with 1,025; Tim Garneau with 1,012; incumbent Richard Drew III with 968; Mike Martinsen with 947; and incumbent John M. Aldred with 912.

The three losers were challengers Dell Cullum with 641; Stephen Lester with 603; and Rona Klopman with 429.

Also on Tuesday, Southampton

Town Tax Receiver Theresa A. Kiernan, a Republican, easily defeated challenger Gordon Herr for the Independence Party nomination, 112 to 48.

Whether or not Democratic Southampton Town Councilman John Bouvier will retain his endorsement for reelection on the Working Families line was not clear on Wednesday. With two nominations for two open seats on the Town Board in November — Mr. Bouvier’s and Christine Scalera’s, who can’t seek reelection because of term limits — he polled 6 votes in the primary. There were 26 write-ins but the Suffolk County Board of Elections by Wednesday midday had not posted a breakdown of who the write-in winners were or whether or not any received more votes than Mr. Bouvier.

CORRECTION: It was incorrectly reported last week that Richard Drew was one of the challengers in the East Hampton Democratic primary for Town Trustee. Mr. Drew is an incumbent who was endorsed for reelection by the Democratic Committee. The Express regrets the error.

Push more wind farms

Man leads effort to keep canines from being a delicacy in China

BY MICHELLE TRAURING

Early on the morning of Tuesday, June 18, Jeffrey Beri was already on the frontlines in China. But where exactly, he wouldn’t say.

“I don’t reveal my location. Ever,” he emphasized. “It is a security breach for me to divulge any information about my whereabouts or our plans of action.

But just be prepared.”

On cue, a chorus of barking dogs ricocheted behind him. Cars zoomed by in the background. He took a deep breath.

It was three days before the Yulin Dog Meat Festival was set to begin — an annual event created in 2009 by China’s dog traders to boost waning sales, held this year from June 21 to 30 — and Mr. Beri, founder of No Dogs Left Behind, had work to do.

“This is essentially war, and intel is really critical,” he said. “Truck interceptions and slaughterhouse shutdowns are imminent. The way it’s handled is very strategically. The evidence is gathered. Volunteers and activists need to

be ready. Media needs to be ready.”

In what feels like a world away, Amanda Platz no longer wakes up on the frontlines in China. Rescued during a slaughterhouse shutdown, this golden-haired pup now lives a happy, comfortable life in Sag Harbor with her owner, Maura Platz, who saw her featured on News 12 Long Island’s “Dog Day Fridays” in February — and immediately fell in love through the screen.

“Amanda was on the meat truck minutes from being slaughtered and, apparently, Jeffrey shut down the slaughterhouse minutes before the poor thing was taken,” Ms. Platz said.

“He’s a real hero. He’s saving so many innocent animals, and I believe every life is worth saving.

“Even though it’s over in China, these dogs have no control over where they are born,” she continued. “Having these dogs come over and become part of families, I think it’s really making a statement. It’s letting China become aware that in the States, these are our family members and they’re our friends and they’re our companions.”

Just three years ago, Mr. Beri was a mover and shaker in the high-end jewelry business — a designer and manufacturer by trade, and an animal lover at heart — who found himself confronted by a brutal reality during a trip to China and Thailand.

For many dogs in some Asian countries, their meat has been considered a delicacy for hundreds of years, he explained. According to folklore, eating the meat during the summer months brings luck and good health, and is even considered an aphrodisiac for men.

He was absolutely sickened.

“It’s complete BS. There’s no evidence that supports any of that information,” he said. “It’s a stunt for raising money and dogs are being massacred.

Dogs are being stolen from all over the country and they’re being transported in the most horrific conditions. Many of them are household pets.

“Can you imagine your dog pulled out of your backyard and then tossed into a butcher cage and severely beaten and tortured, killed by pack fighting

because they’re fighting for their lives?

It’s a horrific, horrific festival that needs to end,” he continued. “When I came back to America, I got up and I left, and I never came home. We have developed a foundation that is leading the way and ending the dog meat trade globally.”

In China, No Dogs Left Behind works with local volunteers and activists, operating under its Five Pillars of Rescue while setting the standard for rescuing and rehabilitating dog meat trade survivors. Once the dogs are evacuated, they are transported to veterinarian allies for care and moved to the No Dogs Left Behind shelter in Beijing.

Every dog is treated and vetted before they are relocated to participating shelters in the United States, often funded by angel donors, including Candy Udell of London Jewelers in East Hampton, who helped transport Amanda to the United States.

“The fifth pillar is you can rescue all these dogs, but until all the dogs are in forever homes, you are not complete with your emergency response,” Mr. Beri said. “No one of us is going to change the world. Collectively, we can make change.”

To date, No Dogs Left Behind has directly and indirectly saved tens of thousands of lives, and successfully placed over 500 dogs in the United States, including Amanda — who now goes by “Mandy,” said Ms. Platz, who adopted her from Jake’s Rescue Ranch in Plainview, a recipient of the dogs who are brought from China.

These days, Mandy is living the good life — the life she deserves, Ms. Platz said. Every day, they walk six miles together and, recently, Mandy took her first swim at Barcelona Neck.

Among the middle class, attitudes about dogs are changing in China, with over 62 million registered pets across the country. Animal activists and pet lovers are starting to speak up, Mr. Beri said. And as the Yulin Festival gains more and more popularity, so does the number of people who oppose it.

“We need to, please, pray for the dogs that live and mourn the ones that die — and by no means should anyone have a feeling of a moment of silence,” he said. “It should be a moment to scream louder.”

German company, Energie BadenWürttemberg, submitted a nomination calling for more than 100 turbines in the Fairways North sector.

The smallest nomination came from Horizon Wind, which proposed just 30 turbines — its only nomination pitch to BOEM — in a sector of the call area farthest from the shores of the South Fork.

Ross Thomas, one of the principals of Horizon Wind, said his company intentionally proposed siting turbines as far offshore as possible to minimize the visual impact.

“We are not a big oil company — we are a few guys who saw an opportunity here, but know that a wind farm closer to land would be a no-no, especially in that area,” Mr. Thomas said, noting that one of his partners is from the North Fork. “Visibility would be minimal because we’re so far out — between 20 and 25 miles — and because the fans would mostly be pointing southwest.

So, really, only the silhouette of the monopoles would be visible. We don’t want to industrialize the area.”

While East End residents have been debating offshore wind in general as the proposal for the South Fork Wind Farm advances, visual impacts have rarely come up, because that 15-turbine farm would be more than 30 miles southeast of Montauk and not visible from its shores. They likely would be visible from the shores of Block Island, Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket — however, at about the same scale as the Block Island Wind Farm’s five turbines are from Montauk Point.

But the thought of major developments that would be visible from Hamptons beaches has stirred very different impressions of the proposals.

“There are plenty of areas where they can be farther over the horizon,” East Hampton Town Supervisor Peter Van Scoyoc, who has been a strident supporter of the South Fork Wind Farm proposal, said this week. “That’s why I supported [NYSERDA’s] approach

to keep the lease areas offshore, where the visibility wouldn’t be an issue.

Any opportunity you have to mitigate people’s concerns, you have to take seriously and try to tailor the lease areas, whether it’s commercial fishing grounds or visual aesthetics.”

Southampton Town Supervisor Jay Schneiderman, whose family owns a motel in Montauk with sweeping views of the Atlantic Ocean, expressed a similar sentiment.

“I love that feeling on the beach when you look out at the ocean and you can actually see forever,” he said.

“A lit, fixed structure, I think, would change the numinous experience of going to the beach. You’re on the edge of this vast thing, and it gives you perspective of how small you are — but pop some structures in there, and that mystical element is forever changed.”

Mr. Schneiderman said he has asked in his official capacity that the Fairways North region be dropped from consideration for wind farm development multiple times.

A BOEM spokesman said that the nominations, regardless of how many are made for a call area, do not mean that the call area or parts of it are guaranteed to ever be made available for leasing.

The nominations are weighed along with the comments from the public regarding concerns about given areas. Overall, there were eight companies that submitted nominations to the four call areas, and 132 members of the public who submitted comments, including at a public forum in Amagansett last year.

“BOEM continues to analyze the comments received,” a statement from BOEM reads, “in order to identify future wind energy areas in the New York Bight that balance key existing uses, regional energy goals, and anticipated future uses based on the best available information.”

The spokesman said that the agency would be announcing its findings for new lease areas at some point this year.

JUNE 27, 2019

PAGE 9

The Sag Harbor Express and Press News Group will merge continued from page 1 Sag Harbor Express Co-Publishers Gavin and Kathryn “Georgie” Menu will helm the new entity as copublishers, aided by the Press News Group’s current publisher, Joseph Louchheim, during a transitional period over the next several years.

“All of my energy is going toward supporting and integrating these businesses, and helping Gavin and Georgie succeed beyond their wildest dreams — and I’m really fired up to do it,” Mr. Louchheim said. “Combining these companies under young and energetic leadership is going to make them both stronger, and that’s good for the business--and great for the communities we serve.”

Joseph Shaw will remain an integral part of the editorial leadership as executive editor of the company, which in addition to the weekly Sag Harbor Express and its website, sagharborexpress.com, will include the weekly Southampton Press Eastern and Western Editions, The East Hampton Press, and their umbrella website, 27east.com.

Along with her duties as co-publisher, Ms. Menu will continue to serve as editor of The Express and will also serve as editor of the company’s lifestyle and magazine content.

Press News Group sales manager Paul Conroy will remain an integral part of the sales department, leading the team alongside Mr. Menu, who will remain a sales representative for the Sag Harbor territory in addition to serving as co-publisher.

“The trend that’s happening nationwide, and probably worldwide, is that news groups are forming — whether it’s really large companies scooping up smaller newspapers, or groups of small newspapers banding together, as is the case here,” Mr. Menu said. “I think the connection these newspapers have to the community is obvious, but I think it’s more important than ever.

“If we can harness what we’ve done in Sag Harbor, and if we can do that on a larger scale, I think the South Fork will be better off for it,” he continued.

“These communities that are facing tremendous change really need a good, solid community newspaper organization that’s reaching out to the residents, bringing people together and leading the way forward.”

The Sag Harbor Express: Small, But Mighty When the first issue of The Sag Harbor Express hit newsstands on July 14,

1859, the war between the North and the South was still two years away.

The railroad had yet to reach the village, and the bark Excel had just set sail with Captain David Loper to hunt for whales.

Over the century that followed, The Express chronicled the decline of the whale trade in the village and its rise as an industrial hub. It covered the artists, and then the writers, who made the pilgrimage out from New York City, flocking to the countryside and establishing Sag Harbor as a destination for creatives of every variety.

As the village grew, so did The Express, changing hands, expanding several times and welcoming new technology in 1988 with new owner Gardner “Pat” Cowles, who also owned the Three Village Herald in Stony Brook at the time.

The Express became the first East End newspaper to be designed and laid out using desktop computers, under the supervision of then-editor Bryan Boyhan, who became publisher and part-owner in 2000, and sole owner in 2011.

“If it wasn’t for Pat Cowles, none of us — not me, not Georgie, not Gavin — would be here. It’s through his generosity that we are able to be in the position that we’re in right now,” Mr. Boyhan said of the former owner, who died in January at the age of 82. “I’m happy to see Georgie and Gavin are keeping the paper thriving and alive, and I think that the merger with The Press is a smart one. I’m looking forward to this. I think it’s going to be an interesting adventure.”

Despite the fact that both grew up in East Hampton, Gavin Menu first met his future wife, Kathryn, while she was working as sports editor for The Independent from 2002 to 2004.

In 2007, Ms. Menu moved to The Express as a staff reporter, followed by her husband five years later; he moved from the Press News Group, where he had transitioned from news reporter to sports writer to sales associate.

In 2014, the couple became copublishers of The Express — Ms. Menu already was managing editor and Mr. Menu was director of advertising — working side by side with Mr. Boyhan.

“When this happened, it was a little bit of a mind-blowing experience for me,” Ms. Menu said, “because I never would have thought, when I was starting out as a reporter in my early 20s, that I would own a newspaper. It’s not even what you strive for as a young journalist. It’s not even in the realm of possibility. So the idea we could help lead this large, locally owned newspaper group in our hometowns is kind of amazing.”

Under their tenure, the single-flag-

ship newspaper has thrived, with The Express Magazine series doubling in circulation and advertising sales, and the new “Express Sessions” series of community events routinely selling out — sparking community conversation on critical issues, including affordable housing, water quality, arts and culture, land use, and the overall well-being of the village.

As part of the merger, the size and scope of The Express will expand fourfold, doubling down on its vision for journalism on the South Fork — with the added strength of a larger staff and vast expertise, particularly from Mr. Louchheim, Ms. Menu said, who “knows the business side of this better than anyone.”

“I’m just excited to be part of a team and a process that is looking to create four stronger newspapers and stronger websites and stronger local journalism that is locally sourced and locally based, and run by local families,” Ms. Menu said. “I just think that’s so important, especially in an area — and everybody knows this — that has seen so much change in the last 20 years. To ensure that the local newspapers remain in local hands is so important to all of us, philosophically, outside of us being the ones doing it.”

The Press News Group: An East End Institution The 100-year anniversary of the Press News Group in 1997 welcomed Joseph Louchheim to the table as copublisher alongside his father, Donald.

“It was never my intention to run this paper,” the younger Mr. Louchheim said. “In fact, my father did everything he could to talk me out of it.

This has never been a family business.

It’s turned out that way, but that was never the intention.”

A daily newspaperman his whole working life, the elder Mr. Louchheim had earned his stripes as a copy boy with The New York Times before reporting and editing as a foreign correspondent at The Washington Post.

He landed on the East End in the 1970s during an 18-month leave of absence, instead choosing to focus his attention on Harvard Business School and, the summer before graduation, escaped to his father’s vacation home in Water Mill. There, he learned The Southampton Press and its two sister weeklies — at the time, The Hampton Bays News and the Hampton Chronicle in Westhampton Beach — were on the market.

“After more than five years in Africa and Europe, with three children

who had little familiarity with their own country, my wife and I thought living in a small town while running our own country newspapers would be the perfect way to spend the next few years,” Donald Louchheim wrote in the centennial issue of The Southampton Press in 1997. “Twenty-six years later, we’re still here and our oldest son is about to take charge of the newspapers.”

Under Joseph Louchheim’s tenure as publisher, the reach of the Press News Group--which at the time included two editions of The Southampton Press--was expanded to include the Town of East Hampton with the introduction of The East Hampton Press in 2007.

Together with The Express, the company’s publications will reach more than 40,000 homes across the South Fork and, with their websites, 27east.com and sagharborexpress. com, many thousands more in the New York Metropolitan region.

“The merger really gives the Menus the runway and the resources they need to take this combined entity and redefine what it means to be a quality regional news and events business on the South Fork,” Mr. Louchheim said.

“They bring a plucky, entrepreneurial and youthful energy that will really benefit this company. I’ve been doing this, in one form or another, for nearly 30 years. I’m ready to get some new blood in management. I don’t think any company is healthy if it has the same CEO for 20 years. I don’t think it’s fair to the business.

“As energetic as you may seem, there’s always room for new ideas and new ways of doing things, and new energy,” he continued. “So I’ve always been cognizant of that, because as you get older, you feel like you know how to do everything. And I really didn’t want to fall into that trap of hubris and thinking I had all the answers.”

The publisher had been “thinking about a transition for a while,” he said, when it occurred to him to approach the Menus. As part of the deal, Mr. Louchheim will lend his full effort and support and act as a sounding board, pitching in as much or as little as the new co-publishers need, he said.

“When I purchased this business from my father, the one thing I really appreciated about that transition was the space he gave me. He said, ‘Look, you’re taking over this business and I’m going to step aside. I’m not going to second-guess stuff you do, and to the extent you want my advice, I’ll provide it to you,’” Mr. Louchheim recalled. “It wasn’t one of these situ-

ations where the old boss was breathing down my neck and wringing his hands and shaking his head and telling me that’s not the way he would have done it.

“That’s sort of how I see my role with Gavin. He’s young and eager, and I’m here to serve as an advisor and a mentor, and to help him really learn the business and guide him to success.”

Stronger Together than Apart Last year, Mr. Louchheim approached Mr. Menu with the loose proposition — one that the co-publisher of The Sag Harbor Express said he never saw coming.

“I was very surprised,” Mr. Menu said. “And, along with my surprise, I was very flattered. But I was also confident in what we’ve been doing, because I think that it’s working.

Once the surprise wore off, it was really excitement and, obviously, a lot of thinking about what was possible and what would need to happen for this to take place.”

In the coming weeks, the two newsroom staffs will unite, infusing their daily and weekly coverage — online and in print, respectively — with more in-depth reporting, while working to maintain the identities of the four individual newspapers, Ms. Menu and Mr. Shaw agreed.

“I’m excited. I genuinely am,” said Mr. Shaw, a 21-year veteran of the Press News Group. “I have said for a very long time that I think the days of newspaper wars among various outlets of community journalism — newspapers, websites — I think those days are over. We all sink or swim together, and while it’s tremendous to have a community that has this kind of competition, with so many great organizations out here, I think it makes sense to start coming together in a lot of ways.”

The merger follows the success of the East End News Project, a combined and cooperative effort by The Sag Harbor Express, the Press News Group and the Times Review Media Group newspapers to focus on the opioid epidemic across the region, in collaboration with Stony Brook University’s School of Journalism — which Mr. Shaw said “worked splendidly.” The content, which won regional and state awards, was shared among the publications equally and simultaneously.

“I think we will be better together than we are separate, and that’s the best you can hope for with anything like this,” Mr. Shaw said. “I think it’s tough for the entire industry right now, but we are surviving, especial-

ly on the East End. We’re all doing pretty well compared to some other places. It’s definitely a reflection of a challenging future. Going into a challenging future, you need to be as efficient as you can be.”

Mr. Boyhan has watched the East End media scene ebb and flow for three decades, and what has remained the same, and the most crucial, is the local dedication to community journalism, he said.

“As a journalist, I think of the possibilities,” he said of the merger.

“It’s like an all-star team. If you get a strong vision about what these newspapers can do, I think there is a tremendous amount of hope for the future of journalism on the South Fork and the East End of Long Island. I think there’s a hunger for it.

“We are all struggling to figure out where the industry lands in the next five to 10 years. On all levels, the industry has gotten tougher and tougher,” he continued. “I’m 66 now. If I were 36 or 46, I might have a different attitude. But that’s the age Gavin and Georgie are, and it’s a great age to get in there and start slugging it out.

If you have a model that you believe in, or a path that you feel confident about, then, hell, go for it — because it is a great opportunity out there.”

Despite a backdrop of unsettling times in journalism, the new media group is positioning itself to scale its newspapers and magazines, websites, and live events accordingly, Ms. Menu said, while maintaining their vibrant presence on the East End. “None of us is an interloper. We’re not big New York City publishers coming in to run the local newspapers,” she said. “Gavin and I grew up in East Hampton. We lived for many years in Sag Harbor before buying our house in Springs. Joe Shaw has been in Southampton for decades. The Louchheim family is an institution in Sagaponack. I think that’s really cool and exciting--that these newspapers remain locally owned by families.

What happens in these places affects my life and my family’s life.”

For Mr. Louchheim, his priority lies in preserving the future of the Press publications and ensuring that residents of the South Fork continue to get the information they need to make sound, informed decisions about the issues that affect their communities and their livelihood .

“I’m not worried about my legacy.

I’m worried about the company’s legacy,” he said, “and I think it couldn’t be in better hands than with Gavin and Georgie, and the management team that already exists here.”

A New Era

Reading Tea Leaves

D

ow many news organizations last a decade?

A quarter century? It’s a fickle industry full of uncertainty, and increasingly so in the days of the internet and social media offering—nay, demanding—instant gratification, and news consumers who have so many outlets to find out what’s going on in the world around them.

Then you have The Sag Harbor Express, which traces its lineage to 1859. And the Press News Group, whose flagship paper, The Southampton Press, was first published in 1897. For more than a century, these two local companies have not only survived but thrived as sources of news on the South Fork.

This week marks a moment of historic transition, a new era for these two legendary news organizations, as they come together not as an act of desperation but as a confident step into a bright future.

Separately, the companies have award-winning histories and, more importantly, the kind of deep, symbiotic relationships with their communities that any publisher would envy.

Together, two strong community news organizations will be something even better.

In truth, it’s an easy merger. The Press and Express have deep ties, both personal and professional. The two organizations have always been competitive in a friendly way, but for years the staff of both have worked together, and cheered each other’s successes.

They share a culture and a vision of what community journalism is about: providing not just local news, but insight, provocative commentary and stories that celebrate the lives lived in our small communities, and mourn the losses when they inevitably occur. They want not just to spark conversations but to lead them.

Bigger isn’t always better, but in the world of journalism it’s a gift to have more resources as long as a goal, with the reader at the forefront, is firmly established. The Press brings those resources to the table, and The Express brings a forward-thinking, innovative strategy to find new ways to both tell stories and lead important conversations that truly matter to a community, its businesses, its schools, its families.

If all goes as planned, readers won’t notice much in the short term — but will see big differences in the long term. More in-depth reporting. More substantive discussions about issues that matter in every part of the South Fork — not just Southampton, Sag Harbor and East Hampton, but Montauk, Hampton Bays, Noyac, Westhampton Beach, Springs. Both The Press and The Express succeed both for and because of their readership, and that relationship will grow and deepen — the “small-town newspapers,” all of them, will have even more reach into the neighborhoods and lives we document every day.

The result will be not just vibrant, compelling print newspapers but an essential web presence, magazines that go even deeper and celebrate the beauty and bounty of the region, live events that truly make a difference and entertain as well as inform, and new ways of telling stories with video and voice. At a moment when journalism is still navigating the biggest changes since Gutenberg’s first printing press, both organizations will be stronger, more agile, more innovative. In a word, better.

It’s a new era, for us and for the South Fork audience we serve. Be excited. We are.

The Walking Tour BY MICHAEL HELLER

Letters to the Editor Worst Fears Dear Editor, The worst fears many have had about the future at East Hampton airport have quadrupled. Imagine four times the current air traffic operating out of that airport. It is unimaginable, but it is possible.

The new chief of air traffic control at KHTO revealed to the airport manager that, based on traffic on the busiest day in 2018, the control tower could handle four times that number of flights, that would be two arriving and two departing flights over the course of just one minute.

That is a contradiction of information the former chief of air traffic control said publicly last year, that the current mix of rotor and fixed wing traffic funneled into narrow air corridors is dangerous.

Of course, a few tweaks would be needed at KHTO, like a terminal dedicated only to helicopters, paving a larger area around terminals, relocating or raising the height of the air traffic control tower, enlarging automobile parking and carving out and paving over a far greater area for jets to park overnight! All of these demands have been floated by airport proponents during public airport management advisory committee meetings; such suggestions are never called expansion or capacity building but removing current constraints on the ground is exactly what that means.

The airport serves primarily transient air traffic, at the expense of the well-being of residents and our economic engine, our precious but threatened environment. People, not profit for out- of state air commuter operators and their environmentally ignorant or callously selfish (or both) passengers must take precedence. Close KHTO in 2021.

Thank you Patricia Currie Sag Harbor

Not Us vs. Them Dear Kathryn, First I would like to thank everyone who came out to vote.

During my recent campaign for village trustee, I became much more aware that this is a small town whose residents, and those of neighboring communities, share a common goal: namely to not mess up a good thing.

I don’t think that things like how long you have lived here, or if you are or are not in the fire department, etc., should come into play in what I perceive to be the overarching aim of keeping this a great place, while dealing with the realities of natural growth and inevitable change.

I hope to reach out to one and all in an effort to identify and strengthen what we have in common, rather than focus on perceived differences.

Simply put, it’s not us vs. them, but rather as a village and its surrounding communities realizing the common good.

Thank you, Bob Plumb Sag Harbor

Ghosts of Artificial Wetlands Dear Kathryn, It’s too early for Halloween but the ghosts of the 1990s “make believe wetlands” are back again to haunt us.

That plan cooked up by Cashin Engineering (cash in, garbage out) went from $9,000 to $315,000 from 1994 to 1999 and was defeated by scientific evidence, not “neighbors fearful of the unknown” as Kevin McAllister stated, in your June 13 issue. He has his failed projects mixed up when he dates the Cashin to 2007; it was defeated in 1999 when the voters voted against it and changed mayors from Pierce Hance to Bill Young.

I’ll refer you to Larry Penny, then natural resources director for the Town of East Hampton: he quoted an international expert who had done dozens of wetlands experiments around the world. He advised us this type of topography was not viable for reclaiming. Science, not “fear of the unknown,” defeated that plan.

Mr. McAllister also backed the Richard Warren dreen plan, March 8, 2011, that flooded many basements on Bay and Hempstead streets. As a licensed plumber, I should have thanked him for all the work he made for me. The “meandering stream” he mentions as part of re- claiming the wetland is not on the east side where the proposed plan is. As 100-year-old photos show, that stream was on the west side, meandering in a north-westerly direction through “Tighe’s Beach” to the north-west corner from the current entrance.

There’s a new stand of phragmites there now, part of the failed dumping of dredge spoils, leaving shards of glass and metal as big as your fist. The mayor ignored concerned citizens for a year-and-a-half and then told us to “talk to Suffolk County,” even though she signed a resolution dated October 24, 2017, that states the Village “agrees that it shall protect, indemnify, and hold harmless the County of Suffolk.”

They still haven’t cleaned up the beach, perhaps the exorcism of June 18th will work its mayoral magic with that.

All the best, Terry Sullivan Sag Harbor The Sag Harbor Express welcomes and encourages letters to the editor. Preference will be given to letters that address local issues and are exclusive to The Express. Correspondence may be emailed to: letters@sagharborexpress.com.

oes the defeat of former Suffolk County Republican Chairman John Jay LaValle last week in a race for Port Jefferson mayor — in which Mr. LaValle’s close linkage with President Trump was a main issue — mean trouble for Mr. Trump in 2020 in running in Suffolk?

Does it also mean trouble for another staunch backer of Mr. Trump, U.S. Representative Lee Zeldin, running for reelection this year?

Mr. LaValle left as Suffolk GOP leader in March. As Newsday described him recently, he has “been President Donald Trump’s prime local cheerleader for the past three years.”

Mr. LaValle regularly appeared on television as a surrogate supporting Mr. Trump. A former Brookhaven Town supervisor and cousin of long-time State Senator Kenneth LaValle of Port Jefferson, he held the GOP chairmanship for a decade.

He indicated when he stepped down that he was interested in being “out there advancing the president and if I end up in a formal role, that would be O.K., too.”

But he decided to run for mayor of Port Jefferson against five-term incumbent Margot Garant, a lawyer who not only had the strength of incumbency but also the incumbency of her mother, herself a former Port Jefferson mayor.

And the LaValle-Trump tie became very important. As one Port Jefferson voter, Arnold (Arnie) Tropper was quoted on the website Greater Port Jefferson as saying: “No way can I support LaValle. My biggest issue is that he is a huge Trump supporter and it’s one of the few anti-Trump statements I can make that actually has some results. My vote is more of an anti-Trump vote, even though I think she’s done a good job.”

Ms. Garant defeated Mr. LaValle 1,454 to 992.

Mr. LaValle told Newsday after losing: “The mayor ran an effective campaign making this a referendum on Donald Trump. That was the result.”

What will this mean for Mr. Trump who in 2016 carried Suffolk with 328,403 votes to Hillary Clinton’s 276,953?

That was a hefty 8 percent margin in a county which Barack Obama carried with a nearly 4 percent margin in 2012 and 6 percent in 2008.

And what will it mean for Republican Zeldin of Shirley who is running this year for his third term representing the 1st Congressional District which includes all of Brookhaven Town along with most of Smithtown, a slice of Islip and all five East End towns: Southampton, East Hampton, Southold, Riverhead and Shelter Island?

“I would hope it is a trend,” commented Southampton Town Democratic Chairman Gordon Herr last week. “We’ll see.”

Mr. LaValle’s successor as Suffolk GOP chairman, Jesse Garcia, told me he regarded Mr. LaValle’s defeat as a “localized issue.” As for Mr. Zeldin encountering trouble this year for his support of Mr. Trump, Mr. Garcia said “Lee Zeldin stands on his own and he has a wide breadth of support for his actions on Long Island issues.” And regarding President Trump, Mr. Garcia said “our polling has shown he’s strong in Suffolk County and in Brookhaven Town [Mr. Garcia has also remained Brookhaven GOP leader.] His detractors may go after his candor, approach and outspokenness, but middle-class Suffolk taxpayers are responding to his policies and his stand on national security issues which I think will carry him — and we want to extend that 8 percent margin in 2016 even further in 2020.”

Former Suffolk County Legislator Jim Morgo, who has been Suffolk County chief deputy county executive, like fellow Democrat Herr would “like to think” that the LaValle defeat with his Trump allegiance playing a major part “portends the future.”

The question, said Mr. Morgo, is whether what happened in Port Jefferson, among Brookhaven communities including Patchogue and Stony Brook that are places of Democratic strength in the largely GOP town, the most populated in Suffolk, will carry over to much of the rest of Brookhaven and Suffolk. He believes broad opposition to Mr. Trump, his behavior and actions, will do this. Mr. Morgo of Bayport is active in the group Taking Action Suffolk County (TASC) started along with many similar organizations around the nation after Mr. Trump’s election to challenge him.

The founder of TASC, Bryan Erwin of Mattituck, said in an email blast last week: “We did it. Margot Garant was reelected Port Jefferson Village mayor. TASC is proud to have helped see Mayor Garant awarded another term. But aside from Margot clearly being the better candidate, TASC was drawn to action by her opponent, John Jay LaValle….LaValle represents the hateful rhetoric and disgraceful cronyism that should have no place in our political system.”

The big political change these days in Suffolk, once heavily Republican, is that enrolled Democrats now outnumber Republicans — 358,296 to 329,689. And there are 281,489 voters in the “blank” category, enrolled in no party, enabling political surprises to easily happen here.

I’m a little nervous, and it’s a little scary to think about, but it’s the path to our future, so you gotta do what you gotta do....but it’ll be fun I think.”

VOICES

A CONVERSATION WITH

THE SURVEY

Kathleen Mulcahy

A total of 51 of you answered our survey question this week. This is what you had to say.

Sag Harbor’s Mayor-elect Kathleen Mulcahy, a former marketing executive and now real estate agent who moved to Sag Harbor in 1995 and raised her son and daughter here, was a founder of Main Street Conversations, a group that meets every month at the Main Street home of Gigi Morris to hear speakers and discuss local and regional issues. It also functioned as a get-out-the-vote operation for Ms. Mulcahy last Tuesday and previously for the Democratic candidate for Congress, Perry Gershon, in November of 2018, turning the vote bluer in Sag Harbor’s election districts than anywhere else on the East End.

SNAPSHOT

By Peter Boody

Photographer Ed Gifford submitted this still life this week. To submit your Snapshot, email it to editor Kathryn G,. Menu at kmenu@sagharborexpress,com.

How did the personal decision come to you to run for mayor?

You know about Main Street Conversations. We had a dinner meeting March, April, and we were talking to Cindy Morris, she runs Take Action Suffolk County, and Bryan Erwin [who founded TASC] … they spoke to the group and then they stayed for dinner. Cindy was talking about the Port Jefferson mayor’s race, which was the same day as ours … And then after we talked about that for a while, we started talking about our own mayor’s race and we were all lamenting the fact that no one was running.

Two years ago, when I voted and no one was running, it made me sick to my stomach. Not that Sandra [Schroeder, the outgoing mayor] was doing an awful job; the fact that nobody was running was ridiculous. And so, we were lamenting it and Cindy went around the table. I was to her right and she turned to her left and there were 12 of us at this big, round table and she asked, ‘Why aren’t you running?’

And every single person had a very valid excuse why they couldn’t run including many women who lived outside the village [boundary so couldn’t run here].

And as it got closer to me, I noticed that everybody was sort of looking at me. And they got to me and before I could even open my mouth they were saying to me, ‘You have none of those excuses. You live in the village you are a real estate agent, you can do this, you’d be good at this damn thing.’

Two years ago, when I voted and no one was running, it made me sick to my stomach.

Was that an awful feeling?

No; it was very flattering that anybody thought that this was even something possible. Of course, I hemmed and hawed, but then Cindy said something really interesting. She said, ‘You know if a man is asked to run for office, he’ll say yes after one person asks.

If a woman is asked, it usually takes about six people to ask her. I took that as a challenge, damn it … I said I’ll think about it and wrote them back within four or five days. I checked in with a number of people, checked if anybody else was running, and kept hearing ‘No, but if you think you really want to do it, if you think you’re up to it’ … This is what I do for a living: grass roots local marketing.

Was the same get-out-the-vote operation at work for you that worked for Perry Gershon?

Oh yes. Gigi’s house was campaign central for the day of the election. We did it slightly differently, in that I had a great group of people just reach out to me, some I’d never even met before; they reached out to me and said, ‘What can I do.’ So we took the voter rolls and we talked to everybody, and everybody identified friends of theirs, so going in we had about 600 people identified as a friend of a friend. And everybody had their lists and we would send out different emails to people about their lists: Okay, it’s coming up for voter registration, if you have friends and others, make sure they change their registration by the 7th.’ ‘Okay, it’s coming up to absentee ballot time; make sure that they have their absentee ballots; it’s coming to be time to mail in the absentee ballots, here are the rules …

Was there an us-versus-them aspect to the race or is that changing?

I never felt an us-versus-them aspect when we moved here. We were embraced. And my son’s and daughter’s friends were a wide range of fourth- and fifth-generation Sag Harbor people to Christy Brinkley’s kids. It was just this wide range, which is what makes Sag Harbor so wonderful. It wasn’t this homogeneous place like Rye, New

Town planners want the East Hampton Town Board to consider a traffic roundabout at the intersection of Stephen Hands Path, Long Lane and Two Holes of Water. What do you think?

Yes. Great idea.

NO-just another waste of money!

I’m sick and tired of these roundabouts, but I think it’s a good spot for one.

Roundabouts are very effective when built correctly, but people need to learn how to drive through them.

Great idea. Plenty of room for it there. Circles are always better at bad intersections.

I hate roundabouts. They are a non-solution to traffic issues.

Good idea — it’s such a dangerous intersection and a roundabout would really help to ease that. Has to be properly designed though,

as a circular, roundabout — not like the figure-8 roundabout that was recently built in East Hampton.

I think it would help.

Wonderful idea. Very bad intersection.

Properly designed traffic roundabouts have proven themselves to be effective traffic control tools as well as efficient, environmentally friendly and most important improving safety.

Roundabouts work.

I agree. Roundabouts have solved previous traffic flow issues.

These two intersections are a big problem and will only get worse over time.

This is soooo needed at that intersection! Hope they go forward with it!!

Not necessary in my opinion.

Yes! It won’t be the town’s first roundabout and it does work.

Though some people do not know how to yield correctly, at least the traffic movement is slower.

Another 2 years of construction?!

It’s a bad intersection, but we seem to be roundabout obsessed.

YESTERDAY’S EXPRESS 125 Years Ago June 28, 1894

IT’S ONLY NATURAL

By Richard Gambino

Pets’ Personalities T

his month three news stories about pets caught my attention. One is about Swedish scientists who studied dogs in relationships with humans. Their conclusion was that dogs literally share emotions, in particular stress and depression, with humans close to them. In both humans and dogs stress and depression increase the amount of a hormone called cortisol produced by the body and released into the blood stream.

The second story involves the appealing eye expressions dogs can use to communicate with people, something that many domesticated dogs rely on.

They have an eye muscle that allows them to do this. It has developed over the 33,000 years that dogs have been domesticated by humans to live with them. Their relatives, wild wolves, have not developed this muscle.

The third story involves a bill passed by the New York State Legislature that would make it illegal to declaw cats, and would impose a fine of $1,000 on any veterinarian who declaws a cat.

Of course cats “can’t be” cats without their claws, that is, they cannot do many things characteristic of cats. The procedure of declawing involves no less than amputating a cat’s toe to the first knuckle, by cutting through the nerves to the end of the last bone in a cat’s toe.

My wife, Gail, and I have had a number of cats over many years, frequently two at a time. They have had unique personalities. For example, some have been very mischievous.

We once had a large Siamese cat named Harry, who during summers lived with us in an apartment on the second floor of a two-story apartment complex overlooking the ocean in Westhampton Beach. One day Harry, with one of his paws, pushed open the sliding screen door overlooking the beach, climbed onto a railing, and walked from apartment to apartment. Finally, one of our neighbors enticed him to come to her apartment, petted him, and took him into her apartment so that Gail and I could go there and

retrieve him.

We had a cat named Tigger. One Thanksgiving, while all of us humans were in the living room, Tigger went into our kitchen and carefully pulled the skin in one piece from a turkey that had just been cooked.

We now have two cats with very different personalities.

Both suffered early kitten traumas (abandonment and death of a parent). One is black, small, friendly, outgoing, curious, and mischievous. The other is a large, black and white cat. She had been abandoned at the end of one summer and found her way each day to the Ross School in East Hampton where students gave her human food. We adopted her, but she remains frightened of all strangers and quickly hides until they leave.

For a number of years, we had a large Ridgeback dog named Jack. He was sweet, docile and eager to make friends with people we met on long walks he and I had together. One summer day, when we had the front door to our house open, with just a screen door in the doorway, a man approached. He was a deliveryman bringing us a package, but he walked in a very peculiar way — no doubt he was handicapped — that made him seem as if he was “sneaking up” on us. Jack unexpectantly went berserk, wanting to attack the man.

Very unlike Jack, he totally ignored my command to sit and be still. He was so strong that I had to straddle him and hang on to his collar with both hands How much we biologically have in common or are intrinsically different from pets — or how much the strength of our relationship merges our emotional connection — these are the mysteries that are hard to unravel.

Of course cats “can’t be” cats without their claws, that is, they cannot do many things characteristic of cats.

RICHARD GAMBINO did not have any pets as a child, but has cherished them as an adult.

A sale of cake, cream and lemonade at the Hay Ground school house brought in a sum of $16 for the church organ repair fund. The affair was in charge of the young ladies and gentlemen of the Croquet Club.

Rapid transit had a new illustration in the street one day, when a horse belonging to Harry Ludlow, in his wild career, deposited the box on the buggy in front of the Atlantic House in Bridgehampton and left the wheels, in the vicinity of the flagstaff, while he pursued his course eastward.

100 Years Ago June 26, 1919

When William R. Reimann opened his pharmacy Wednesday morning, he ascertained that burglars had been there before him.

During the night, someone had entered the store by kicking in the lower panel of the rear door, which they crawled through and then loosened the inside of the fastening. They must have been scared off before collecting too much booty, as, up to the present time, the only thing missed is about $3 in change from the cash drawer.

75 Years Ago June 29, 1944

Last week’s Southampton Press carried a picture of the Giacoia brothers who finally met in Hawaii after many attempts to find each other. With the brothers, was Bill Swezey, U.S.N., of

Sag Harbor, whom neither of them knew until they met in service and by strange coincidence, Bill and a brother, Vito, were born on the same day in the Southampton Hospital and their mothers’ shared a room there.

50 Years Ago June 27, 1968

Technical Sergeant Francis P. Logan, brother of Mrs. Ethel Cosgrove of Sag Harbor, is a member of the unit at Bien Hoa AB, Vietnam that has been selected as the best tactical fighter wing in the U.S. Air Force.

25 Years Ago June 30, 1994

Instead of elderly nursing home patients puttering down halls in wheelchairs, developers of the old Cilli Farm property on Glover Street are hoping to hear the thwack of tennis racquets and the poing of tennis balls.

Pamela O’Neill Orenstein and Dorothy Strode are the co-developers for a project that hopes to see a total of 14 indoor or seasonal tennis courts built where an old farm once grew vegetables. The site has a history of failed attempts for development since its past as a farm, including a proposal for a subdivision of 19th century style houses and, most recently, for a nursing home. Each proposal was met with opposition from the community and, in the case of the nursing home, the sponsor of the project allowed his application with the state to lapse before an application could make its way through the various village boards.

The Village of North Haven is pleased to announce:

The Sag Harbor Express

JUNE 27, 2019

Mayor-elect Kathleen Mulcahy continued from page 11 York .... I felt it a little near the end [of the race] but when you look at the numbers, I don’t think it went that way … I do think it was an across-theboard vote.

I was in such shock by the numbers.

When the counting took so long [at the fire house after the vote, from 9 to nearly 10:30 p.m.], we figured it had to be within a vote for somebody. But I feel really there was a village mandate. People ask me if I’m daunted about going in and I’ll tell you I feel a lot less daunted than I would have been had the vote been 360 to 310 [instead of 489 to 179]. That would be scary going in. This is something I had a lot of support for.

There was a lot of conversation near the end that I had no experience, no board of trustees experience and how dare I run ....

Where?

It was Facebook nonsense, and there was just scuttlebutt. But I kept saying I have all the management experience that’s needed for the management side of the job and, as far as the village government experience goes, I have a lot of people around me who aren’t going to let me fail. Starting with you and Kathryn [the editor of the Express] ... if I’m doing something wrong, I expect to hear from you. There are talented people in the village office and there are very good people on the boards. No one’s going to let me fail because whether they like me or not they love the village.

Do you know what the plan is for rehabilitating Long Wharf?

I don’t know if the contract is written yet … I know there’s a contract that we’ve accepted for the bid but whether it’s all signed, sealed and delivered back or not, I don’t know. I’ll find out much more tomorrow. The last set of plans that I saw, I don’t hate. I think it only took eight [parking] spaces, maybe four or five spaces — we don’t lose a lot of spaces. It is nice. I do think it’s more expensive than anybody expected it to be, without a doubt, and that’s one of the things I want to find out.

What else is on your plate?

There are lot of empty spots on our boards and our commissions. I would like to get some of those filled by next Monday, by the organizational meeting. That’s how I’m going to spend a good part of tomorrow. I get sworn in at noon on July 1, at the organization meeting, as would many of these new

board people. So, I would get some people lined up for that. That is first.

By July 9, that will be our first [regular board] meeting. By July 9, I want the village to have purchased some kind of a timer, a red, yellow, green timer so we can put public input back at the beginning of the meeting with a very strict three-minute policy.

Strict, absolutely, you are cut off in the middle of your words … Worst case, I’ll donate an iPad to the village and we’ll do it that way. But that’s going to be the first thing that changes with that meeting.

And then just environmentally, overall, the Havens Beach sponge thing [the filtering system for runoff before it enters the water at the beach] I think works, what they proposed a couple of weeks ago at the Harbor Committee meeting [to be able to better service and replace the Abtech Smart Sponge filtration system], I think that sounds like a good first step. I want to make sure those sponges that are in there are disposed of properly and gotten as far away from here as possible ... It’s not the ultimate solution but it’s at least something ...

Do you think the expansion of the sewage treatment district will be the best solution?

Yep, and that [planning effort] is in full swing. There’s a grant writer who is working on that as we speak.

So that would be amazing to have that but we’re just going to have lots of people, all wanting that [to be connected to the sewage plant for septic waste treatment].

Will you start having regular work sessions of the Village Board?

Yes. Every other week. We’re going to do every other Tuesday a work session; every other Tuesday there will be a board meeting. That’s the way we’re supposed to do it.

So your comprehensive plan isn’t just about land use and zoning?

Oh no. It’s because I come at it from a marketing background. It’s ‘what does Sag Harbor mean?’ It’s really what is our image, what do we mean, what do we want to be? Do we want to be a Marbella [Spain] or a San Tropez?

Or do we want to be an old whaling village, you know, in like Cape Cod? There are different ways we can go and this is one of those times in our world and our lives and our village when we have to stop and say this is a crossroads. Because if you look out at the water, we’re Marbella. You look up the street and we’re still the old Sag Harbor ... we’re up in Maine. Both are okay but both aren’t okay to everybody. So where do we find something to balance it out? We’re not going to make everybody happy but at least let everybody have their say and let’s talk about how we can find some common issues.

It sounds like you’re not having any butterflies about jumping right into it. You seem gung ho.

I probably should but I don’t, I’m very gung ho. I wish it was today at noon [that I get sworn in]. My plan is that I’m going to be in an office there — I never have seen the mayor’s office; I have no idea of anything there, I’ve never been beyond that [front] desk, but I’d like to be in my office all day Tuesdays and Thursdays. I will be there; my door will be open unless I’m in a meeting. I’ve asked Beth [Kamper, the village clerk-administrator] that if I have meetings that we can try to keep them to those two days for the most part. Because I figure Tuesday is before a work session or a meeting and then Thursday is the day the Express comes out and that’s the day that people have the most questions.

The Sag Harbor Village Board of Trustees reorganizational meeting will take place on Monday, July 1, beginning at noon in the Municipal Building, 55 Main Street, Sag Harbor. For more information, visit sagharborny.gov.

Tales of growing up Jewish

You spoke of a new comprehensive plan during your campaign.

I would like to, by fall, start that process. We have to get through the summer. Because you’ve got to get through the summer with all hands on deck. But by fall, we would start the planning process. By winter, we would have that plan as the basis for our budget and for that budget we would then put in that project manager and everything to go from there.

I’d like to be in my office all day Tuesdays and Thursdays. I will be there; my door will be open unless I’m in a meeting.

that Sag Harbor Village has always been a “center for Jews,” even when compared to surrounding villages.

In addition to Temple Adas Israel, the Center for Jewish Life on West Water Street is also up and running, hosting orthodox religious services every weekend. Though a different denomination from Temple Adas Israel, it too has found a welcome home in Sag Harbor. “To me, it brings a warmth to my heart,” Mr. Grossman said, adding that Rabbi Dan Geffen has worked diligently with other clergy in the village. “Jews…have been accepted within the ecumenical spirit of Sag Harbor.”

The positive energy on Friday night at the temple — the oldest Jewish congregation on Long Island — was apparent and palpable. The music during services was led by a student cantor whose talent appeared to belie her age. It forced members of the congregation to their feet, and many danced around the room, arms intertwined with smiles on their faces.

With that a congregant turned and said, “Would you like to dance?”

“It was a very big deal in the summer,” Ms. Katz said, her voice rising, as the congregation erupted into laughter. “It was not this — I really don’t understand it, what’s happening.”

Anti-Semitism in the United States and across the globe has increased dramatically in recent years. In its most recent data release, the FBI reported that there was a 37 percent increase in anti-Semitic attacks from 2016 to 2017.

“Anti-Semitism is worse than ever in this country in many ways,” said Karl Grossman, an investigative journalist — who often presents on the history of Jews on the East End and made a documentary called “The (Unusual) Jewish History of Sag Harbor” — and whose Hungarian Jewish grandparents came to Sag Harbor in 1900 to work at the Fahys Watchcase Factory.

He referenced the recent attacks at the Tree of Life Congregation in Pittsburgh last October, where 11 people were shot dead, as well as the shooting at Poway Synagogue in San Diego in April that killed one person.

But Mr. Grossman, too, emphasized

why. “People respected each other’s religion,” Ms. Katz said. “People said, ‘Have a nice holiday.’”

Ms. Katz explained that she grew up keeping kosher, meaning that foods had to comply with Jewish religious dietary law, one of which states that meat and dairy products cannot be cooked or eaten together. Her family would eat their “meat” meal during lunchtime and after school, Ms. Katz said she would often need a glass of milk. “I inevitably wound up at other peoples’ homes in town,” she said. “I had people giving me glasses of milk — sometimes they would kid me and say, ‘Did you drink your milk today?’

It was like a password.”

Every year on a Sunday in June, a fundraiser for her synagogue was held at Herb McCarthy’s Bowden Square in Southampton Village. “Everybody in town came, all the trustees, the mayor, the police — the town supported it,” she said, emphasizing too that Mr. McCarthy gave them the space on a Sunday night “out of respect.”

Boards say proposal too intense continued from page 1 Under the village code, the project would also require a total of 50 parking spaces where just six are proposed.

On Tuesday, village attorney Denise Schoen informed the Planning Board that members of the ZBA believed that the project, as proposed, required too many variances and expressed concerns over the intensity of use being proposed for the site and whether it would exacerbate parking and flooding issues in the area. The parking variance required, said Ms. Schoen, if approved, would be the largest approved during her tenure with the village.

“Let’s be clear — it is approximately the lowest lying area of the village which means it is most sensitive to the environment, so the gross intensification of use is probably not appropriate in the most sensitive area,” said board member Larry Perrine during the board’s work session. “Maybe they have to understand that.”

“If the people are not meant to park on the site, they will be forced into the public lot next door which is already overflowing,” said Ms. Schoen. “It will just exacerbate the parking situation.

That coupled with the fact that flooding is a huge problem for that specific

spaces on the first floor and four, second-floor office spaces, is expected to be heard by the ZBA in July, attorney Dennis Downes informed the Planning Board Tuesday night.

The property — once part of a Superfund site — previously held a building with five retail stores and was demolished in 2008 as part of a cleanup effort on neighboring land that once housed a KeySpan manufactured gas plant. While an official “turn down” letter from village building inspector Thomas Preiato has not been issued yet, Mr. Downes said based on informal discussions with Mr. Preiato, he expects the project will need just a few variances and hopes to be back before the Planning Board next month with a straw vote in favor of the project by members of the ZBA. Lastly, the review of Eric Fischl and April Gornik’s proposal to redevelop the former Sag Harbor United Methodist Church building into an arts incubator known as “The Church” has been postponed to August at the request of attorney Tiffany Scarlato.

Mr. Fischl and Ms. Gornik are currently in discussions with the Sag Harbor Village Board of Trustees to see if extending wastewater treatment to the 48 Madison Street property is possible.

‘Let’s be clear — it is approximately the lowest lying area of the village which means it is most sensitive to the environment, so the gross intensification of use is probably not appropriate in the most sensitive area.’

area and the problem becomes bigger and bigger and bigger.”

In other Planning Board news, the board agreed to give a subdivision application at 237 Main Street and 8 Palmer Terrace — already approved by the board — a 90-day extension as it continues to seek approval from the Suffolk County Department of Health Services.

and stab wounds to the face and the head.”

Mr. Sini would not confirm if the murder weapon was recovered by the Suffolk County Police Homicide Squad.

Mr. Casado was found unconscious in Kirk Park at about 7:30 a.m. on June 6 and was transported to Stony Brook Southampton Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Following an investigation with the East Hampton Town Police, Suffolk County Homicide Squad detectives arrested Mr. Grippo in a car at Montauk Highway and Old Montauk Highway in Montauk at 3:47 p.m. on Thursday, June 20. He was held overnight for arraignment in East Hampton Town Justice Court the next day.

Mr. Grippo, 47, who lives on Old Montauk Highway, was charged with second-degree murder.

Mr. Sini said Mr. Grippo had been convicted of armed robbery in Suffolk County in 1998 and served 15 years in prison. He also has several misdemeanors for attempted burglary, the DA said. If convicted of second-degree murder, he could be sentenced to life in prison.

On Friday, Mr. Grippo pleaded not guilty before Justice Rana. He was remanded to the county jail in Riverside, with no bail set.

Arriving shortly after the brief arraignment. Mr. Sini confirmed that the two men, Mr. Grippo and Mr. Casado, had known each other and had been friends at one point.

About a dozen of Mr. Casado’s family and friends attended the arraignment. Mr. Casado’s father, Benny Garces of Montauk, seemed on the verge of collapsing after the arraignment.

His sons Jose Garces and Ariel Garces, while holding him up, escorted their father to his car in the parking lot.

Mr. Casado’s family and friends wore pins with Mr. Casado’s face that said, “Siempre Te Recordaremos,” which translates to “We’ll Always Remember You.” “We’re not sure how long they were friends for, or the nature of the relationship,” Sheila Kelly, director of communications for the DA’s office, said after the arraignment of the relationship between Mr. Casado and Mr. Grippo. She said, later in the day, that there was no indication that drugs or alcohol were involved in the murder.

Mr. Grippo had been living at his mother’s house on Old Montauk Highway, Ms. Kelly said. The DA’s office could not offer information regarding Mr. Grippo’s occupation.

Dan Russo, Mr. Grippo’s attorney, said his client had been living in Montauk for the past two years.

“It’s brand new. All I know is the accusation,” Mr. Russo said outside the courthouse after the arraignment.

“I’m going to meet with him and go over the case. At this point, it’s an accusation, and we’re going to defend it.”

Mr. Russo said he could not comment further about his client. The indictment will be on Friday at Suffolk County Criminal Court in Riverhead.

“The important message to the public is that the person responsible for

JAZZ FOR JENNINGS

“Jazz for Jennings” was held on Sunday afternoon on the grounds of The Watermill Center featuring Evan Sherman & Friends. “Jazz for Jennings” is named for the late news anchor Peter Jennings and honors his commitment to the Bridgehampton Child Care & Recreational Center. The benefit, now in its fifth year, raises funds to support the center’s educational, recreational and enrichment programs. Among those attending were, from left, Kelly HaddoNamo Jimoseyang-Tunupassog, Cheryl Buck, Lisa Votino-Tarrant and Lindsay Landis.

the murder is now in custody and will remain in custody pending trial,” Mr. Sini said.

East Hampton Town Police Chief Michael D. Sarlo said much the same thing after Thursday’s arrest was made public.

“On behalf of the East Hampton Town Police Department we would like to express our appreciation and thanks to the Suffolk Homicide Squad, crime scene investigation unit and the medical examiner’s office for their outstanding work on this tragic case,” he said in a statement.

“We hope the arrest begins to bring some closure for the family and friends of the victim, while also giving some relief to the Montauk community. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victim’s family during this difficult time.”

On Tuesday, her sister Jennifer Dupree, who co-owns Milk Pail with Ms. Halsey-Cohn, told Town Board members that her parents started the farm stand in 1969 because they could not support themselves on potatoes alone.

“We’re in the same boat,” she said. The traffic along Montauk Highway, in front of her stand, backs up daily in the summer, which hurts her business.

“Do you think a customer comes in now and knows what to do with 20 pounds of apples?” she asked. “They want everything prepared. This is a way for us to keep going.”

The Milk Pail is not the only farm struggling and looking for ways to continue to make money.

David Falkowski, the owner of Open Minded Organics on Butter Lane in Bridgehampton, owns a Suffolk County Department of Health-approved kitchen on wheels that serves numerous purposes. For example, he uses it to prepare and process items like guacamole, salsa, quiches, teas, pestos and soups. He also uses the kitchen to wash greens from his farm, while also cooking beef from his father’s farm in upstate New York, and adding selfgrown mushrooms into ravioli.

“The work we’re doing in connection to my farm is very different than what someone else wants to do, which is creating a parking spot for somebody relatively unconnected or related to that business, just to park,” he said.

The code modifications, Mr. Falkowski said, do not take into account things that he is already doing on his farm, which should be permissible. “There shouldn’t even be an additional permit,” he said. “There’s a difference between a farm having a mobile kitchen that does a wide range of activities, versus a farm or farm stand that just has a third party operating on their place and there’s absolutely no connection to the business.”

Mr. Falkowski also questioned whether the town would be able to enforce the rule that 80 percent of the products sold be made up of ingredients from the East End. Some parts of the year, farms may not yield too many products, which may result in the food trucks being out of compliance, he said; other parts of the year may be the opposite. He added that maybe instead of a cumbersome regulation, the farm should just be able to demonstrate a connection in their products to the farm and its work.

At the public hearing on June 11, Mr. Falkowski voiced his frustrations with the regulations, as did other business owners, including Jay Andreassi, owner of Sabrosa Mexican Grill in Water Mill. Even though Mr. Andreassi admitted to loving to go to farm stands, he said he was against allowing farm stands to operate food trucks.

The board did not take action on the measure, but instead left the public hearing open until Wednesday, July 9, at 1 p.m.

New owners hope to restore house at 156 Main Street in Sag Harbor.

the John Jermain Memorial Library — Mr. Vermandois was on the board’s agenda for a discussion only and had no completed plans to show the board.

But he said the restoration would include rebuilding a one-story accessory building in the “middle of the property” and rebuilding it “in back with a small pool in between.”

In an interview this week, he said the property had been divided into five apartments, three in the main house and two in the back, and that his client was “hoping to keep” some of them. He did not identify whom he was representing.

Calling it a “pretty big house,” he said his client would not be “proposing a radical addition.” He noted that a “later lean-to” or shed addition “encroaches as much as one foot on a neighbor’s lot.” He said plans would probably call for reducing it in size if not removing it and extending the rear of the house out by two or three feet. There will be no change in the front of the house within its current envelope, he added, but the roof on a rear addition would be raised about six feet six inches.

The board’s historical consultant, Zachary Studenroth, called 156 Main Street “a very striking house” at the board meeting and a “15-over-15 sash going on” in the rear addition “an amazing artifact.”

Even if the window sashes have been re-glazed, he said, “It’s really the sashes themselves” that are rare and noteworthy. There are “very few 18th century houses in the village,” he added, even though its settlement date is often given as 1707; he said the house still might be “post-Revolutionary,” from the decade 1790 to 1800.

Board member John Chris Connor called it a “great old federal house” and member Judith Long said of the “lean-to” or shed “it’s a part of history, so it stays.” Board members agreed to meet for a walk-through of the house later that week.

In the official inventory of structures in Sag Harbor’s historic district, the house at 156 Main Street is described as a “two and one half story, three bay frame residence with 12over-12 light wooden sash windows, clapboard siding, brick foundation and a side gabled roof. There is a late Georgian, early federal style mantel frame entrance with a transom with replacement glass. There is an early rear ell with its own late 19th century rear addition. There is also a late Victorian side entrance, a picket fence and a non-contributing outbuilding, now a residence.”

The owner listed as of March 1, 2019, was Albert C. Riggs, trustee, for the Albert C. Riggs Revocable Trust, according to village records. Its value was listed as $1,312,400, with an annual tax bill of $3,085.82.

Whalers Slump and Drop in the Standings

Weekend losses move Sag Harbor team into third place

BY DREW BUDD

After winning their first seven games of the season, and eight of their first nine, it looked as if it was going to be a runaway season for the Sag Harbor Whalers in this summer’s edition of the Hamptons Collegiate Baseball League.

But there’s a reason why the regular season is two months long.

Since their blistering start, the Whalers (10-8) have only won three of their last 11 games, as of Monday morning, allowing teams such as the Shelter Island Bucks (11-4) and Westhampton Aviators (12-4-1) — who were neck and neck with Sag Harbor to start the season — to stay atop the league standings.

In a key mid-season matchup, Westhampton defeated Sag Harbor, 4-2, at home on Saturday evening behind what was, and has been all season, a solid pitching performance from Harrison Cohen. The George Washington product out of Syosset limited the Whalers

to one unearned run on three hits and a walk while striking out seven.

It was more than enough for the Westhampton offense, which got on the board on back-to-back run scoring walks by Nick Bottari (Southeastern) and Landon Gray (Tennessee) in the top of the first. A run-scoring double

by Chaney Dodge (Northwestern State) and a run-scoring single by Bailey Peterson (Michigan State) in the seventh added some insurance.

Sag Harbor looked to get back on track against a struggling Southampton team on Sunday, but the Breakers (5-12-1), looking to turn their season around, swept the doubleheader, taking the first game, 9-2, following that up with an 8-1 victory. It was Southampton’s third consecutive win, the team’s longest win streak of the season. The Breakers hadn’t lost a game, as of Tuesday morning, since June 20, having tied the Long Island Warriors in the second game of a doubleheader that day after

losing the first game, 13-12.

The Breakers took game one of Sunday’s doubleheader behind a five-run second inning, which included a perfectly executed suicide squeeze bunt

by Isaiah Winikur (Towson). And it was more than enough for Rob Lucano (Hofstra), who allowed just two earned runs in six innings of work in his best outing this summer.

The Breakers kept things rolling in game two, scoring all eight of their runs through the first three innings.

Reed Babin (LSU-Eunice) drove in a pair of runs on a base hit in a five-run third for Southampton, which got another solid pitching performance from Joe Cinnella. The Seton Hall left-hander out of Mahwah, New Jersey, allowed one earned run on five hits and struck out five without allowing a walk. A solo home run in the third off the bat of Brock Franks (Northwest Florida) was Cinnella’s first earned run in 14 innings pitched this season.

Good Start for Sag Harbor All-Stars Team

The 12-and-under team charges back against Hampton Bays to claim narrow victory

BY DREW BUDD

The Sag Harbor 12-and-under AllStars started its run in the District 36 Tournament with a pair of victories.

Trailing Hampton Bays, 7-0, on their home field behind the Bridgehampton Fire Department, Sag Harbor stormed all the way back to steal the win, 8-7. It followed that up with a 9-1 victory over East End Little League on Monday evening, which was also played in Bridgehampton.

East Hampton and Sag Harbor both sat atop the Pool A standings as of Tuesday morning while North Shore American and East End are both 1-1 and Hampton Bays and Southampton are 0-2.

After each team plays each other

once, which will wrap up this Sunday, the top two teams from each pool move on to the semifinals of the tournament.

Pool B this year is made up of North Shore National, Eastport-South Manor, Moriches Bay, North Patchogue/Medford, Riverhead and Mastic. The tournament ultimately leads to the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pennsylvania.

Sag Harbor was expected to play Southampton on Wednesday and at East Hampton at Pantigo Park at 5:45 p.m. on Friday. They finish up pool play on Sunday at noon at North Shore American.

TIDES, SUN & THE MOON

New Moon July 2

he first day of summer has officially arrived. It is feeling like summer at last.

Plenty of folks are swimming at Long Beach but the ocean is still pretty chilly. The weatherman predicts a week of 80-degree weather. I hope it’s a nice weekend as my granddaughter is graduating from Pierson High School on Saturday.

The long-awaited opening of seabass season finally came on June 23. It has a possession limit of three fish at 15 inches.

The seabass fishing was okay, but it seems the fish may not have gotten the memo that the season had opened up. Even Montauk had so-so fishing. Only the Sound and the bay east of Gardiners Island produced fish.

There was also some nice fluke caught on the east side of Gardiners.

Locally, porgies are still biting in the Peconics and Cedar Point.

Mixed sizes up to 2 pounds have been caught on clams and squid. Some weakfish have been mixed in at Buoy 16 for the bait fisherman. Cedar Point seems to be the hotspot for fluke. S/S sandwiches on the drift on the outgoing tide are working. Bluefish are at Jessups but most of the areas are quiet.

Bay temps are in the high 60s and bass are still biting but the big fish are moving on. There have been some good low tides and clamming has been good.

Let’s hope summer weather prevails.

Formerly of North Haven, John Sebastian will bring songs of the Lovin’ Spoonful and more to the Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center.

The daughter of a Jewish Queens accountant takes center stage

MAKING MAGIC John Sebastian on the 50th anniversary of Woodstock and coming home to the East End of Long Island

BY MICHELLE TRAURING

F

A

s a young girl, Sandra Roth Schoenbart constantly asked herself one burning question: “Could the daughter of a Jewish accountant from Queens, New York, ever become an actress?”

In her mind, the short answer was no. So she did the next best thing — and landed a gig on QVC, she said with a lighthearted laugh.

Schoenbart had already established herself as Sandra K in the garment district, where the independent contractor sold her wares before her “wonderful experience” on the home shopping network. It was a career that incorporated her first love — the performing arts — but never fully satisfied it.

So this past January, the Water Mill resident signed up for Allen O’Reilly’s theater class, “Everybody Can Act!” at Bay Street Theater in Sag Harbor. In the throes of her personal rediscovery, O’Reilly took the budding actor under his wing and helped her develop a onewoman show, “Exit Strategy,” which will make its debut on Saturday, June 29, at the Southampton Cultural Center.

“It’s not supposed to happen like this!” said O’Reilly, the director of education and community outreach at Bay Street Theater. “Sandy trained at the American Academy of Arts in her 20s, then took one acting class many years later, and here she is! Sort of a ‘Mrs. Maisel’ story, if you will.”

In reference to the Amazon Prime smash hit, “The

By Annette Hinkle

ifty years ago this August, a half million people descended on a small farm in upstate New York for what was billed as “Three Days of Peace and Music.” There also was a lot of mud, drugs and free love to go around.

Woodstock, as it was known, quickly became a defining moment for the youth of America who were rising up and speaking out against the war in Vietnam and injustice around the world.

One of the musicians who performed at Woodstock in the long-ago summer of 1969 was John Sebastian, legendary front man for the Lovin’ Spoonful, whose hit songs include “Do You Believe In Magic” and “Summer in the City.”

While Sebastian is tentatively scheduled to perform in August at Woodstock 50, at this point it appears it may not happen. Originally planned for August 16 to 18 in Watkins Glen, the loss of initial financial backing and a lack of venue permits are just two of the problems facing festival organizers, who vow the event will go on … somewhere.

“I was scheduled for the 16th,” said Sebastian in a recent phone interview from his home in Woodstock, New York (really). “I’ve been paid, so it could happen.”

But even if Woodstock 50 implodes completely, this is one musician who still has plenty of gigs on his plate this sum-

mer, including a concert on Friday, June 28, at the Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center.

In many ways, his visit here will be something of a homecoming for Sebastian. That’s because in the late 1960s, Sebastian lived on the South Fork and was responsible for bringing David Crosby, Stephen Stills and Graham Nash to Sag Harbor in the winter of 1968-69 so they could write and rehearse the music that ended up on their legendary first album, “Crosby, Stills & Nash.”

According to Sebastian, he and then-wife Loretta Kaye had bought a home in North Haven, on Sunset Beach Road, from longtime resident Lovelady Powell. It was there that rock ‘n’ roll history was made when Crosby, Stills & Nash came to town. continued on page B6

Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” — starring Rachel Brosnahan as a Jewish housewife who thinks she has everything she has ever wanted, until she discovers her hidden penchant for stand-up comedy — Schoenbart said the comparison is flattering, considering her lifelong dream has always involved the stage.

“I always wanted to be an actress,” she said. “I was always the lead in my school plays. I did attend the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, but I was the daughter of an accountant, and was the daughter of an accountant growing up in Queens, New York, gonna be an actress? It was just not a typical thing to do.”

In her free time, she dabbled in acting here and there, even though her work in sales is a nonstop performance itself, she said.

“You have to be up,” she said. “I’ve always been a performer. I’m definitely an outgoing, gregarious type of personality. I definitely have a flair for drama, there’s no question about that. I’m colorful, and having lived a relatively full life at this point, you have so many experiences inside of you that you can certainly let

very day, Marc Dalessio begins his morning ritual by looking out the window, as the weather determines what he and his wife, Tina Orsolic Dalessio, will do next.

If the forecast calls for rain, they retreat to their studio in Estremoz, Portugal, a quaint town of 15,000 that happens to face north — the perfect locale for the two artists who depend on natural light. He works at one end of the space, and she at the other, meeting in the middle for lunch and dinner before retiring for the night.

When the clouds clear, Dalessio hops in his car and drives, scouting for views and locations for his canvas, oil paints and a tradition that dates back to the 1800s: en plein air, which is the act of painting outdoors.

Currently, the artist is regarded as “perhaps the finest plein air painter in the world today,” according to Eric Rhodes, publisher of Fine Art Connoisseur Magazine and Plein Air Magazine, and a selection of his work is currently on view as part of “Dalessio | Morfis” at Grenning Gallery in Sag Harbor.

“I had my mid-life crisis five or six years ago, and it manifested itself as an obsession with figuring out the technical side of painting outside,” Dalessio explained during a telephone in-

BUSINESS BRIEFS Claudio’s Restaurant Opens ‘Up Stirrs’ Cocktail Lounge

Since Claudio’s Restaurant opened its doors earlier this season, the Greenport staple has an undeniably fresh look and feel — especially the second floor, a renovated bar and lounge space now called “Up Stirrs at Claudio’s.”

The new lounge concept leans into the recent shift in the North Fork scene that attracts consumers with a taste for specialty-crafted cocktails and a late-night dance card. Designed around a bar — its focal point an original hand-carved ship nestled by select spirits — the space is complemented by original Claudio’s prohibition and iconic 1920s photography.

The menu features more than two-dozen cocktails infused with local and artisanal products, developed by beverage director Brian Sassen. Crafted to inspire and educate, some cocktails like the Hotel Nacional — a Cuban classic named after the famous Havana hotel from the 1930s — are also offered with a modern twist, such as the Atlantis, which replaces rum and apricot with genever and mastiha. All ingredients and mixers are either juiced fresh in house or made from scratch, including all syrups.

“The space is about creating a vibrant gathering spot for locals and industry folks, alongside visitors, that want to enjoy great music and delicious drinks within an iconic venue,” a press release said.

Up Stirrs at Claudio’s — which includes a private dining wine cellar, lunch and dinner seating, and an event space — will be open year round, featuring weekly Wednesday and Friday late nights from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m., with live music/DJ at 10 p.m.

Next door, Claudio’s and 10time world champion pizza maker Nino Coniglio — and owner of Williamsburg Pizza — have opened Pizzeria Baccano

on the Greenport property adjacent to the waterfront, bringing New York slices and pies to the North Fork.

Flavors and toppings include Margherita, clam, Mike’s hot pepperoni, onions, bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, cremini mushrooms and Ezzo Cup & Char ‘OG’ Pepperoni.

Golden Goose Lays Egg On Newtown Lane

Manhattan Skyline Management Corp. recently signed a lease with Golden Goose Deluxe Brand on its newest store location — a 2,000-square-foot ground floor space at 33 Newtown Lane in East Hampton.

The fast-growing Italian sneaker retailer is expected to open later this summer.

“East Hampton is known for its many high-end brands and retailers, and a greatly soughtafter shopping destination for style-savvy Long Islanders, Hamptonites and Manhattanites alike,” Joshua Roth, vice president of retail leasing for Manhattan Skyline Management Corp. said in a press release. “Golden Goose will be a terrific addition to the vibrant blend of retailers that reside along this fashionable thoroughfare, which receives great

foot traffic.”

Golden Goose’s newest neighboring tenants include Scoop Du Jour, Orlebar Brown, Zimmermann, Club Monaco, James Perse, John Varvatos, Theory, Tory Burch, Oliver Peoples, Brunello Cucinelli, Eileen Fisher, Henry Lehr, Eli Tahari, Oro Gold and Aerin.

“Golden Goose’s reputation as a trend-setting seller of hip sneakers has driven its rapid global expansion,” the release said. “The retailer operates two stores in Manhattan already.

The 33 Newtown location will become its first retail location in the Hamptons.”

Joshua Roth represented Manhattan Skyline Management, the landlord, on the leasing transaction, and Dan Harroch of Thor Retail Advisors represented the tenant.

Duryea’s Lobster Deck Releases New Picnic Baskets

Duryea’s Lobster Deck is taking picnic basket lunches to a whole new level.

In classic Hamptons style, the Montauk eatery — located at 65 Tuthill Road — is loading up a quartet of new to-go baskets with local favorites, including lobster at the right price.

The Continental basket includes croissants, seasonal muffins, fresh seasonal fruit, and more for $85.

The next tier up is The Luncheon, including two lobster rolls, for $135.

The Aperitif will cost $225 for a cheese plate, charcuterie, crudites and more plus beer, Wölffer cider, or fresh pressed juice.

And finally, The Seafood Lovers basket — $250 for two people and $500 for four people — will include a snow crab cocktail, shrimp cocktail, two pounds of cold steamed lobster, smoked salmon, and more.

All orders must be placed one hour in advance. For more information, call (631) 668-2410 or visit duryealobsters.com.

Believing in Bookstores

BY RACHEL BOSWORTH

S

ag Harbor has seen a swell of new businesses opening their doors just in time for the summer months and aiming to serve the local community year-round.

Among these is independent bookstore Sag Harbor Books, which came to Main Street this past Memorial Day weekend.

Founder of the new shop and co-owner of Southampton Books, Daniel Hirsch, finds independent bookstores have been on the rise and hopes this expansion offers more people the opportunity to get back to basics and lose themselves in a good book.

Technology’s reign over consumers led to a severe decrease in the success of brick and mortar stores. Few industries were immune with the ease of a few clicks giving people immediate access to what they want. Independent bookstores first took a hit with big box retailers offering thousands of cheaper options. Then with the introduction of e-readers more than a decade ago, even these brands suffered. But recently, there’s been a shift. In 2018, NPR reported an update from the American Booksellers Association announcing more than 2,300 independent bookstores in the United States.

“The initial Amazon effect has passed and now people are taking stock,” Hirsch shares. “Businesses like independent bookstores are on the rise. I think there’s just no substitute for holding a physical book in your hands.”

Hirsch cites “The Revenge of Analog: Real Things and Why They Matter” by David Sax as an interesting read that takes a deeper look into physical items like books and board games and their major resurgence in the face of technology. Nearly five years ago he took the opportunity to continue the tradition of bookstores in the Hamptons when he opened his first shop in the former BookHampton space in Southampton after previous owner Charlene Spektor retired.

Real estate developers have also found value in these types of locally owned and operated businesses. Manhattan Skyline Management Corp. represented the landlord and bookseller leasing transaction

with the memories of his childhood in Brazil.

It was loud and colorful — manifesting today in his signature curving, flo-

ral borders and the integration of native and well-adapted plants, the hallmarks of an Azevedo garden.

He explores his creativity in his latest book, “Bloom: The Luminous Gardens of Frederico Azevedo,” a 200-page tome of his multidimensional vistas using layers of flowers, trees, grasses, shrubs and hedges to dramatic effect.

“The results of his impeccable designs are soft and romantic, always sophisticated and well executed, and most importantly, site-specific to the unique conditions of any environment,” according to a press release. “Discover the luminous world of Frederico Azevedo and his dazzling gardens.”

After studying landscape design in Brazil, England and the United States, Azevedo founded Unlimited Earth Care, Inc. in Bridgehampton in 1993 — the launch pad of his sustainable landscapes. to landscape design has been recognized nationally and internationally in both architectural and landscaping publications,” the release said.

He is a member of the Association of Professional Landscape Designers, the American Horticultural Society, and the Horticultural Alliance of the Hamptons, and divides his time between the Hamptons, New York, Los Angeles and Miami, and travels abroad frequently.

Though the store’s hours are flexible at the moment, the shop is open seven days a week, including 7 a.m. to midnight on weekends. It may seem unusual for a bookstore, but Sag Harbor’s energetic nightlife lends itself well to these hours Hirsch has found. When the village gets its second wind, the store fills with passersby browsing the shelves for new reads. Being next to Grindstone Coffee and Donuts, which gets an early 6 a.m. start, Sag Harbor Books also gets that early morning crowd.

T

he theme “taking a chance on love” has been on Jill Eikenberry’s mind.

With songs by Kurt Weill, Randy Newman, Peggy Lee, Janis Ian and Joni Mitchell, it dominates her newest show, “Here I Go Again,” to stage on Monday, July 1, at 8 p.m. at Bay Street Theater in Sag Harbor, as part of the Music Mondays concert series.

Last seen at Bay Street Theater in “Enter Laughing, The Musical,” Eikenberry returns with songs from her life and career, joined by her musical director, James Horan, at the piano, Mike Kuennen on bass, Zach Eldridge on drums, and Lee Weisman on guitar — as well as special guest David Rasche and her husband Michael Tucker.

Tickets range from $69 to $89. For more information, call (631) 725-9500 or visit baystreet.org.

The John Jermain Memorial Library in Sag Harbor will commemorate the moment with a screening of the documentary “Coming Out: A 50 Year History,” on Friday, June 28.

A discussion led by local advocate Ken Dorph will follow. For more information, call (631) 725-0049 or visit johnjermain.org.

Sebastian found a nearby rental for the trio, who were living in Los Angeles at the time, and throughout that winter they all made music together.

Among the other visitors who came to Sag Harbor that winter was singer Judy Collins, who was dating Stills at the time. The Crosby, Stills and Nash song “Suite: Judy Blue Eyes” is named for Collins, who will, herself, be performing at WHBPAC on August 25.

“Days were spent at my house. I had the rehearsal home, essentially,” Sebastian recalled. “I had converted my garage into a rehearsal room … They worked in two stages — one was the composition and actual harmonizing, which I stayed out of most of the time.

Then there was a little playing, and I’d come in and help out on the drums occasionally.”

Though Sebastian had lived in Huntington on Long Island as a young child, his introduction to the East End can be traced to the Lovin’ Spoonful’s bass player Steve Boone, a 1961 graduate of Westhampton Beach High School — and a former newspaper delivery boy for The Southampton Press.

“We had a couple of band houses along the way in East Hampton and Quogue,” Sebastian recalled. “Steve’s mother was a Realtor, and we would get in these houses and rehearse. Eventually, we ended up in Sag Harbor.

“It wasn’t all chic, which was part of its charm,” he added of Sag Harbor in those days.

Sebastian’s younger brother, Mark, was a high school student at the time and he moved in with Sebastian and his wife and attended Pierson High School.

But the singer soon began spending less time in Sag Harbor “I was beginning to get absorbed by touring and being a professional musician. Once my wife and I split up, Mark stayed on,” said Sebastian. “He was in a couple of local groups, including one called the Smugs — I came up with that name out of my addled brain.”

When asked what prompted him to invite Crosby, Stills and Nash to spend some time on the East End, Sebastian explained that he felt it would be good to get them away from the distractions of the West Coast scene. He also felt the isolation of a Sag Harbor winter would help them gel, musically speaking.

“That was my reasoning. They were going to get sucked into this vortex of Los Angeles before they were as cool as they wanted to be,” he said.

By the spring of 1969, a few months before Woodstock, Crosby, Stills and Nash had left Sag Harbor and returned to the

oman Roth and Jacques Gautier are lifelong friends. And on Friday, June 28, they are putting on a show.

The Wölffer Estate Vineyard winemaker and Palo Santo chef will team up for the season opener of “Grilling With Roman,” a three-part series of fiery food and wine — al fresco style — at the Sagaponack vineyard.

Bringing a taste of Latin America with a little Caribbean flare, Gautier draws his influence from Caribbean family roots, as well as his extensive travels and time spent working in renowned restaurants. His eclectic cooking expresses a versatile understanding of culinary tradition, maintaining their original essence with a new take on ingredients, technique and presentation.

“An avid home gardener himself, supporting local, sustainable agriculture is of utmost importance to the chef,” a press release said. “On Saturday mornings throughout the summer, you can find him giving public cooking demos at the Grand Army Plaza Greenmarket.”

On Thursday, July 11, the series will celebrate dynamic grilling and female chefs, led by Kia Damon of Lalito with her friends

Elizabeth Carmel and Yossy Arefi, who is a master of wood-fired and grill-baked desserts.

“Her praxis in the kitchen hinges on the mutual empowerment of those around her, uplifting marginalized voices in the food and service industry whose liberation are tied up in her own,” the release said.

Chinese Tuxedo executive chef Paul Donnelly wraps up the series on Thursday, August 1, with a grilling experience straight from Chinatown, serving up a dim-sum meal, banquet style, among the vines.

Originally from Glasgow, Scotland, Donnelly spent the early years of his career in kitchens throughout Southeast Asia and Sydney, Australia, working for chefs such as Gordon Ramsay and David Thompson.

“A New York transplant since 2016, Donnelly pushes the boundaries of New York’s Chinese cuisine, creating classic and modern dishes rooted in traditional Chinese culture,” the release said. “Beyond his time spent in the kitchen, Paul pursues an interest within the fashion and art worlds of New York.”

Tickets are $175 per event. For more information, visit wolffer.com.

s Karl Grossman’s audience expands, WPPB 88.3 FM has handed the journalist a microphone to talk about one of his favorite topics: Jews on the East End. On Sunday, June 16, an eight-segment series began on the Southampton-based radio station, with the first, second and third segments focusing on Jewish settlement in Sag Harbor. It will continue every Sunday morning at 10 a.m., inclusive of interviews with Rabbi Daniel Geffen of Temple Adas Israel and Rabbi Berel Lerman of the Center for Jewish Life – Chabad in Sag Harbor.

“I speak about how Sag Harbor served as a center for Jews on the East End, in contrast to the neighboring villages of Southampton and East Hampton where Jews were not welcome,” he said.

Grossman will give a presentation on Saturday, July 6, during the morning service at the Center for Jewish Life – Chabad, followed by “Friday on the Porch: The Unusual Jewish History of the Hamptons” on Friday, July 12, at 5 p.m. at the Sag Harbor Historical Society, and “Lunch and Learn: Jews on Long Island’s East End” on Friday, July 19, at the Westhampton Free Library.

West Coast, bound for bigger things.

Sebastian was not far behind.

“As ’69 comes around, I move to Los Angeles, and the boys all go to back to L.A. Now we’re all hanging around Hollywood,” he said. “Right around then, I am pursuing my current wife, Catherine Barnett. We’re together 50 years next year.”

Also coming up on 50 years, of course, is the anniversary of Woodstock, and while many people who were there, both on stage and off, may have fuzzy recollections of the event due to various psychedelics, Sebastian claims to have no such trouble.

“I remember everything about Woodstock,” he said. “Anyone who interviews me says, ‘How high were you?’ I’m a New York guy — I experiment very slowly. After three days in the rain, I felt I’d do nothing professionally at this concert, so I chipped off a little edge of something. It did have a slightly psychedelic effect, but nothing that was lasting.”

And it was during the deluge of rain that Sebastian suddenly found himself center stage at Woodstock, literally.

At one point, Sebastian was standing near festival promoter Michael Lang as he worried over the large amount of rainwater that had pooled on the plywood stage, given the number of bands that were using electric amps. He wanted to get someone to sweep the water off the stage, but he didn’t want the music to stop.

“He said, ‘Find a guy who can hold their attention with an acoustic guitar,’” Sebastian recalled. “I turned to the right and the left — it was like a Marx Brothers’ bit. I said, ‘You’re talking about me? I don’t have an instrument, though I may have a thumb pick.’

“Michael said, ‘You have five minutes to find a guitar.’”

He added, “My luck was with me — Jimmy Hardin was backstage with his Harmony Sovereign, a very playable guitar from the era. I said, ‘Can I borrow this?’ I was back out on stage and playing.”

“It’s hard to imagine it’s been 50 years.”

But so it has been, and while his performance at WHBPAC will no doubt be a little more intimate than it was 50 years ago at Woodstock, fans can count on the fact that many of the songs Sebastian performs will be from the era.

“I’m not a ‘let’s neglect the big hits’ guy … I try to cover as much territory as I can.”

John Sebastian performs at 8 p.m. on Friday, June 28, at the Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center, 76 Main Street, Westhampton Beach. Tickets $51 to $61 at whbpac. org or 631-288-1500.

How to Plant a Cloud

M

ore than occasionally I’ll find myself obsessing over a plant that I believe is significantly underused. They tend to be plants that are not that obvious in their beauty, but ones that I believe folks would enjoy growing if they had just a little more information about their history, their cultural requirements and the way they contribute to a garden plan, and a lot of these plants are ones that can take less light than their more well-known brethren.

As anyone who has gardened long enough knows, the more plants you add to the garden, the bigger they grow, and, if you’ve added trees and shrubs, eventually you end up with more shade than you had before, and when you have less light, you have far less plant material to choose from.

This means the plants you do choose must work a little harder to make an impact. They can’t just rely on bold, showoff blooms to make them standout, to hide the fact that they have poor structure, or boring leaves, or are a little ratty looking. We forgive the more floriferous members of the fauna family their foliage flaws; but shade plants, with their paucity of blooms, have to justify their existence through the textures and interest they provide all season long.

Follow PAIGE PATTERSON @wildgardenstyle as she relentlessly combines pink, orange and purple in ways that would make Lily Pulitzer gasp.

Sure, you’ve heard of iris and roses, peonies, salvia and echinacea but what about the perennial commonly (or not that commonly) known as Meadow Rue? The thalictrums are a group of hardy plants related to the buttercup. Easily identified by their distinctively compounded foliage, they are also quite famous for having apetalous (having no petals) flowers.

These blooms characteristically have lots of long, distinctive, eyelash-like stamens gathered together in powderpuff, airy yet elegantly dense, clouds of flower formations that are quite stunning. A few of the species (delavayi and rochebruneanum) seem to have more traditional looking blooms, but what appear to be petals are actually sepals, which is why these blooms seem to flower for such a very long time.

Easy to grow in the average garden, they thrive in my heavy soil, and although they can be grown in full sun (as can hydrangeas, although I don’t recommend you do so with either) they prefer a more dappled light.

Almost all members of this category have a Giacometti-esque structure, and thus work to draw the eye both upwards to follow the plant’s spire, and through the diaphanous foliage and stems to see what’s just beyond.

If you go to the Missouri Botanical Garden’s website, a very good and reliable website, these perennials are described as, “… tall airy plant[s] which provides excellent

Meadow Rue

foliage and late summer bloom to the perennial border, wildflower garden, meadow or naturalized area.

Good background plant … best when grouped …” but I think this misses the whole point of these plants, and that is their texture, structure and stature. As a category these are plants that are attenuated, taller, wiry and filament-like, with leaves that appear more intricate and jewelry-like than they do functional. I don’t buy into the belief that these should be

relegated to the back of the border just because they are tall and instead focus on their more transparent quality. I like the idea of seeing layers in the garden, so am quite content to stagger them throughout a border, front to back, creating the same mystery as catching a glimpse of a bride’s blush underneath her unlifted veil.

I have always been a fan of breaking rules and the tall in the back, short in the front, makes absolute perfect sense, and no, I’m not going to stick a swatch of ground covering geranium behind a mass of bee balm; but I’m quite notorious for designing beds where there are obstructions to taking in the view in one immediate and swift glance. I want you to peer, to crane your neck, to stop and to want to take a few steps to the left to be able to see deeper in. I use veronicastrum, sanguisorba and actea for the same purpose, as well as some of the taller cultivars of nicotiana. I find that by not creating gardens that stadium plants, from low to high, they feel less constructed and more like they just happened to grow this way.

Which is, of course, a crazy conceit, in that there really is nothing more artificial and less natural than a man-made garden, built with species from scattered pockets all over the globe, where a constant war is waged against the changes inherent within a plant’s natural life cycle, as well as with those plants we have deemed unwanted in the plot of soil we’ve

claimed as our own.

I still however prefer a garden that looks a little unkempt, a little like it has some hidden secrets, or that it has self-seeded itself into existence.

An occasional odd obelisk of foliage or flower extending skywards 18 inches from the edge of the lawn helps create that feeling. This year I’ve started to play with what has to be the tallest cultivar yet, Thalictrum ‘Elin’ which, where it’s planted at my house, has already reached past the latches on my ground story windows. When Dan Pearson writes about this plant, he speaks about it topping out past ten feet, so it should be interesting to see how it compares when grown in my far more acidic — but also possibly richer — soil. Not only that, but how fabulous to be able to use this plant’s delicate cloud of flower suspended almost magically above what feels like comparably wire-like stems as a living, rolled-upfrom-the-bottom shade?

There’s also another new cultivar ‘Nimbus White’ that is a dwarf, white flowering version which I feel will mix most brilliantly with another favorite of mine, the astrantia. I’ve raved in both my lectures and on my Instagram about the versatility and the extensive bloom period of this plant, as well as its ability to tolerate shade, and look good in both a vase on the kitchen counter and in a wedding bouquet. The combination of the two should be quite sublime.

Capturing life in the open continued from page B1 terview from Portugal last week. “So I became obsessed with very, very lightweight, durable equipment, and I couldn’t find anyone who made it — so I taught myself how to make all of my easels out of carbon fiber.

“It took a long time to get right,” he continued. “At the beginning, I thought I would get somebody else to make it for me, but I thought the prices were ridiculous, and I ended up spending way more doing it myself.

But I have a working setup now, and my wife does, as well.”

Earlier this year, the couple packed up their plein air rigs and traveled to the East End, painting locally in Sag Harbor, Shelter Island and East Hampton, though other trips have focused on Amagansett and Montauk, Dalessio said.

Like many artists who have visited before him, the plein air painter found himself struck by the light — a redder hue that created humiditysoaked, salmon-colored sunsets, as compared to the arid climate of the places he has always called home,

such as California, Italy and now Portugal.

“I love seeing new light effects that I haven’t seen before,” he said. “Now I’ve been painting on the East End for 20 years, working with Laura Grenning. She had a house on Shelter Island with a guesthouse in the back, and I would stay there for summers.

And it was funny, for about the first 10 years, I only knew Shelter Island and Sag Harbor. I didn’t realize there was even ocean beaches or anything.

“There was so much subject matter just around the bays, I had never even gone to an ocean beach for the first 10 years,” he continued. “It’s silly now.

I was very slowly working my way across the island.”

At each location, Dalessio relies solely on his limited plein air color palette, comprised of three bright blues, three bright reds, two bright yellows and one dull yellow, plus white. And despite his prowess as a portrait painter — he trained at Charles Cecil Studios in Florence, Italy — he long ago shifted his focus outdoors, where he is known to regularly paint up to three scenes per day.

“Growing up in California, there is a great history of plein air landscape painting,” he said. “On the East End, you have it, as well, with William Merritt Chase; but if you were a painter in California, you had to go out and paint landscapes. It was what painters do.”

But first, during the earliest days of his undergraduate studies at the University of California at Santa Cruz, Dalessio was not focused on fine arts at all. He sought a degree in biology.

“My whole life I’ve drawn and painted, but I didn’t think it was a very serious profession. I thought I should get a real job,” he said. “After a couple years of biology, I saw that was a very difficult profession, as well. I had great art professors and that, combined with seeing the beauty and the natural world around California, made me really think about what I wanted to do.”

As a child, Dalessio said he always felt a deep admiration and respect for nature. And as an adult, he found that landscape painting, especially outdoors, was a more immediate way to express that sentiment.

“I always saw biologists sort of falling in love with the natural world

“The Gardiners Windmill,” 2019, Oil on panel, 8 x 12 inches, by Marc Dalessio.

and trying to express that wonder through studying it and understanding it,” he said. “I think a painter does the same thing. You go out and you see the beauty in the natural world, and you express that joy and reverence in painting.”

It is a joy he feels in the field and in his studio, working across from his

wife, he said — even just looking out the window every morning, wondering where the day will take him.

“Dalessio | Morfis,” featuring work by Marc Dalessio and John Morfis, will remain on view through Sunday, July 7, at Grenning Gallery, located at 26 Main Street in Sag Harbor. For more information, call (631) 725-8469 or visit grenninggallery.com.

out in different facets — and that’s what we’re trying to showcase in this show.”

Written and rehearsed in just six short months, “Exit Strategy” is a compilation of monologues from four different plays, starting with Schoenbart’s reprisal of Dr. Gorgeous, a Jewish suburban housewife meets talk show host, from “The Sisters Rosensweig” by Wendy Wasserstein — her segment from O’Reilly’s acting class, which marked her return to the stage after nearly a decade away from it.

“Definitely, even now, I’m nervous,” she said. “There’s no question I’m anxious. It’s a huge undertaking. It’s a huge platform that went from doing a small segment at Bay Street to putting on a one-woman show.”

The play continues with a heartfelt and particularly poignant monologue from “I Don’t Know What I’m Doing”

by Donald Margulies — “She is forbidden to continue a relationship with her high school sweetheart, and that was something that happened to me as a child, as well,” Schoenbart said — followed by a piece of “All the Ways to Say I Love You” by Neil LaBute.

“It showcases me as a cougar, as an older woman now, which frankly, my entire life, everybody has always said that I’m naturally sexual. There’s an essence that stems from me,” she said. “So that was something that anybody — family, friends that know me — would definitely say that is akin to who I am, on some level.”

The closing monologue from “In a Word,” by Craig Pospisil, explores her darker side, she said, and with 30-second transitions from character to character, it proves to be a challenge.

“It’s been quite a journey, and this has been quite an undertaking. Allen and I worked together on this — I love working with him, it’s wonderful — but certainly this is a big undertaking, and I’m looking forward to it,” she said. “It’s been quite a process. It’s been quite a learning curve for me.”

Following the Cultural Center performance, Schoenbart said she plans to shop “Exit Strategy” around, using the one-woman play as leverage to break into television and theater.

“Performing is a wonderful way to allow an individual to express their emotions, and for me, that’s what I enjoy most,” she said. “I do feel I am very deep and a highly sensitive individual, so the theater is now allowing me to share and to release the emotions that I feel, from happiness to sadness, covering the gamut.

“I think the performing arts is a wonderful world, because it is a creative world,” she added, “and I am so happy to finally be a part of it.”

Sandra Roth Schoenbart, also known as Sandra K, will perform her one-woman show, “Exit Strategy,” on Saturday, June 29, at 7 p.m. at the Southampton Cultural Center, located at 25 Pond Lane in Southampton. Tickets are $20 and $10 for students under age 21. For more information, call (631) 287-4377 or visit scc-arts.org.
