Under present zoning, the number of dwellings existing in 2004 in East Hampton Town can increase by 33% and the year-round population by almost 50%. Accompanying this high amount and rate of residential growth have been pressures on East Hampton’s roads, schools, infrastructure in general, and the environment. Growth in traffic and school age population has increased at a greater rate than the population and number of new households. Growth in traffic compared to houses, for example increases at a ten to one ratio. In other words, for every new house, there is projected to be ten new car trips on the roads every day1. Whereas Town-wide population in East Hampton increased by 22% between 1990 and 2000, enrollment in the East Hampton School District increased by 61%2 during this same time frame. Many studies document the fact that most residential development burdens the community with more expenses than the taxes it generates. Merely comparing the average 2004 East Hampton homeowner tax bill of approximately $5,000 to the 2004 East Hampton School District “per pupil expense” of $19,916 3 shows how every new house with one or more school-aged children is a tax burden to the community. Bear in mind that approximately 58.5% of each tax bill in the East Hampton School District covers non-school expenses associated with County, Fire Districts, Town and other services4. Despite this high growth rate and the associated costs of development, East Hampton has the second lowest tax rate as a percentage of median value of real estate in all of Long Island. Only Shelter Island has lower than the 1.1% tax rate as a percent of median real estate value of East Hampton5. Three factors contribute to this low tax rate: a large number of second home owners (54 % according to Census 2000), a large percentage of seniors (approximately 20% are 65 or older according to US 2000 Census), and a high percentage (40%) of preserved open space and farmland. Second homeowners and seniors generally do not send children to school; farmland and protected open space require even fewer services and do not send children to school. While the age and seasonal composition of the Town are not factors that the Town controls, the desirability of the community as a second home and retirement area are affected by Town programs. The quality and quantity of the Town’s protected open space contributes greatly to the natural beauty and the desirability of East Hampton Town. East Hampton’s natural and cultural resources have regional, statewide, national and even international significance. While East Hampton’s long history of successful open space 1 From the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) figures 2 East Hampton Union Free School District Figures 3 East Hampton Union Free School Figures 4 Personal conversation with Roy Fedelem, Suffolk County Planning Department. 5 Suffolk County Planning Department, Long Island Towns and Cities by Median Home Value and Median Taxes-2000 Report. 1 preservation is expected to continue, it is unlikely that all of the remaining land with important natural and cultural features meriting protection will be acquired. In order to assess these changing conditions, to protect what is so special about East Hampton, and to prevent deterioration in living conditions and the natural environment, an updated comprehensive land use plan and zoning map has been prepared. This Town of East Hampton Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map sets forth recommendations to reduce impacts to the Town’s groundwater resources, natural resources (other than groundwater), scenic resources, historic and pre-historic resources and existing character. While protecting these features, the Plan will also help to reduce over-all residential build-out, which also will reduce ultimate impacts on the Town’s roadways, schools, and infrastructure in general. Adopting the revised zoning is a necessary pre-requisite for determining revised potential build-out and the need for community services and infrastructure. It is anticipated that further planning and evaluation of the Town’s community and infrastructure needs will be conducted immediately following the adoption of this Town of East Hampton Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Map. Subjects to be addressed include Transportation, Recreation, Infrastructure, Commercial Needs, Hamlet Studies and other topics identified in the Recommendations to Meet the Goals Section of this Plan. This further work may be considered Phase II of the Town of East Hampton Comprehensive Plan Update. The last full overhaul of the East Hampton Town Comprehensive Plan was conducted and adopted in 1984, with 21 updates and amendments made during the intervening 20 years. All of these plans, as well as other documents have been reviewed in the preparation of this Comprehensive Plan and are listed as references. The following five plans which have previously been adopted as elements of the Town of East Hampton Comprehensive Plan, are incorporated by reference in their entirety, are summarized in the appendix, and will remain in effect as Components of this Town of East Hampton Comprehensive Plan, May 2005: • Historic Preservation Report, Town of East Hampton, Phase One and Phase Two, 1989 and 1990, prepared by Robert Hefner • Town of East Hampton Comprehensive Plan Transportation Element, 1997, prepared by L.K.

  • Town of East Hampton Section VIII. Historic Resources Policy
    SECTION VIII HISTORIC RESOURCES POLICY #23 Town of East Hampton LWRP Historic Resources Policy #23 A. INTRODUCTION History shapes a community in subtle ways, colors the assumptions of community life, enriches and enlivens the sense of place for residents and visitors alike. Historic and cultural resources are the touchstones of tradition. They can be housed in museums, monuments and structures, but the real keys to continuity with the past, and the underpinnings of a viable future, are a community's awareness of its cultural history. The Inventory, Analysis and Historic Resource Policy #23 that follow are intended to promote an ethic of respect for the past, impress the need for study and quality information, and instill pride in the community's cultural and historic resources. In 1998 East Hampton Town celebrates the 350th anniversary of its founding by English settlers, the historical mainstream of present society. There have been other streams too, aboriginal settlements that date to thousands of years B.C., a heritage that left its mark in the Indian place names that abound in the community, and the wealth of archaeological sites the Town struggles to protect from pervasive development. Buildings and structures remind us of the colonial era; only the subtleties of the archaeological record and the oral history of native descendants remains to preserve aboriginal history. Since colonial times the Town has participated in several of the great tides of American history in its journey from a subsistence agricultural and fishing community to a premier coastal resort. The country's military history was acted out here beginning with the American Revolution.

  • Town of East Hampton Section IX. Scenic Resources Policies #24-25
    SECTION IX SCENIC RESOURCES POLICIES #24-25 Town of East Hampton LWRP Scenic Resources Policies #24-25 A. INTRODUCTION The Town of East Hampton has an extraordinary endowment of coastal scenery, vistas of the slender isthmus of Napeague stretching to Hither Hills, soft-edged coastal ponds, sinuous saltmarsh shorelines, puffs of spring shad bloom undulating over Montauk's moorlands, towering hoodoo ocean bluffs west of Montauk Point. The visual quality of the coast is part of the Town's natural wealth and its cultural heritage. Panoramic views of the water and esthetic issues are important not only because they deeply affect the way people feel about living in the community, but because scenic values play a vital part in attracting visitors, residents, and businesses to East Hampton. Certain esthetic values are deeply embedded in our culture and value systems, among them the passion for visual proximity to the water. Like people everywhere, East Hampton's residents have grown accustomed to their surroundings and tend to lose sight of the visual glory amidst their lives. Too often scenic resources are taken for granted and given short shrift until spectacular views have been marred by inappropriate development, dunescapes cluttered with boxy condominium rooflines, or the lines of dunes and bluffs broken by multi-storied homes thrust skyward for water views. With its untreed openness, the visual integrity of the Atlantic Ocean shore is easily disrupted and the most vulnerable to impairment from development. The scenery of the more wooded Peconic Estuary coast is more forgiving and in places can better conceal residential construction.

  • The Strata of the Long Island Platform Include Upper Cretaceous Marine Sediments and Pleistocene Glacial and Nonglacial Deposits
    137 GEOLOGY OF THE LONG ISLAND PLATFORM Les Sirkin, Department of Earth Science, Adelphi University, Garden City, New York 11530 The strata of the Long Island Platform include Upper Cretaceous marine sediments and Pleistocene glacial and nonglacial deposits. The basement rock where sampled is similar to the early Paleozoic gneisses of southern New York and New England. Palynology of borehole samples from a west to east transect of the Island reveals Upper Cretaceous pollen zones that range from Zone IV (Cenomanian) through MA-1/CA- 6 (Maestrichtian) and indicate direct correlations with the outcropping Upper Cretaceous formations of New Jersey. Pleistocene pollen assemblages suggest temperate conditions. The Cretaceous sediments of central Long Island fill an assymetrical flexure that has an apparent dip to the south. The presence of high-angle faults on the continental shelf south of Long Island and a Mesozoic basin to the north suggests the possibility of a related structure at depth beneath the Island. Upper Pleistocene glacial and nonglacial sediments overlie the Cretaceous. These include evidence of two glaciations (two drift sheets with morainal features), and marine beds that represent three warm intervals. The older drift predates 42,000 BP and was previously assigned to the early Wisconsinan. However, new evidence suggests an Illinoian age for that glaciation. Pleistocene marine clays stratigraphically above the uppermost Cretaceous beds in southeastern Long Island and glacially-thrusted clays in the interlobate moraine in Gardiners Island have both been referred to as the "Gardiners Clayll and assigned to the last or Sangamon interglacial . The southshore unit which contains a temperate microflora may represent the interglacial warm interval.

INTRODUCTION II. GLOSSARY OF TERMS (FOUND IN OR RELEVANT TO THIS REPORT) III. AVAILABLE LEGAL & HISTORIC DOCUMENTS PERTAINING TO GARDINERS ISLAND, AND COMPARABLE EXAMPLES IV. CARTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE & CONSIDERATIONS V. OPINION ON TITLE TO CARTWRIGHT/RAM ISLAND AND RESPECTIVE FORESHORE RIGHTS AND LANDS UNDER WATER ON AND IMMEDIATELY ADJACENT TO BOTH ISLANDS AND SHOALS VI. CONCLUSION I. INTRODUCTION: In September 2018 I was retained, as an independent researcher, by the Trustees of the Freeholders and Commonalty of the Town of East Hampton, N.Y., to investigate both the land title and littoral boundary of Cartwright/Ram Island, located in the shoals immediately south of Gardiners Island. As an archivist in the East Hampton Library Long Island Collection for over thirteen years, I am intimately knowledgeable of this vast, comprehensive collection, which includes numerous Gardiner family and East Hampton Township material, both manuscript and published. Four years ago, I assisted the Town of East Hampton Town Clerk’s Office with their important municipal records, dating back to 1649, which culminated in an arrangement of said material to be placed in the said Long Island Collection, whereby myself and my colleagues systematically cataloged and digitized said material. In my estimation, 90-95% of the historic municipal records of said township are now available in the Collection. Additionally, I have over 18 years of land surveying experience, both in the field and with land records research.

  • David Wilson Piracy, Patronage & Political Economy: Captain Kidd
    David Wilson Piracy, Patronage & Political Economy: Captain Kidd and the East India Trade School of Humanities, University of Strathclyde, Lord Hope Building, 141 St. James Road, Glasgow G4 0LT +44(0)141 444 8219 [email protected] Piracy, Patronage & Political Economy: Captain Kidd and the East India Trade Abstract At the end of the seventeenth century, Whig and Tory debate over the organisation and future of the East India trade recognised the need for a closer relationship between merchant and state. However, the existence of an illicit pirate enterprise between New York, Madagascar and the Red Sea proved an obstruction to the future of this trade. This article seeks to explore the ill-fated voyage of Captain William Kidd of 1696-99 during which Kidd was commissioned to confront the Red Sea marauders as part of the state's war on piracy. It will be argued that in the process, he became intertwined with the development of political economy in post-revolution England and ultimately, became the necessary catalyst and martyr for political and economic change. Keywords: pirates, piracy, patronage, political economy, captain kidd, east india trade Introduction In 1701, the body of Captain William Kidd was suspended at Tilbury Point on the Thames in London. Kidd was a victim of the war on piracy mounted by the government against the geographic expansion of piratical activity from the Caribbean to the Red Sea and Indian Ocean.1 Over the last decade of the seventeenth century, the Indian Ocean and the Red Sea became the major haunt of European pirates.
