🌱 East Hampton Daily: Local Businesses For Hire + Hamptons Sewage

Good day, people of East Hampton! Diane Witek here with today's copy of the East Hampton Daily.

First, today's weather:

Sun and clouds with a shower. High: 51, low: 42.

Here are the top stories in East Hampton today:

1. Looking for a professional to help you with spring cleaning? Or maybe you have a long to-do list. There are plenty of East Hampton businesses and professionals who can help. Patch is excited to introduce you to Local Businesses, a new feature in your area where you can connect with top-rated local professionals to complete just about any home task! Hiring in East Hampton has never been easier. (East Hampton Patch)
2. East Hampton is looking to deal with its sewage by proposing a seven-acre land swap to Suffolk County. The town would "trade woodlands it owns for county-owned parklands west of a landfill in Montauk, where a wastewater treatment system could be installed," wrote 27east. Its a creative real estate solution, that would need a ton of approvals including those from county and state legislative officials. Sewage is a major issue in the Hamptons; at least some are thinking creatively to resolve the issue. (The Real Deal)
3. A scholarship was created to honor Kevin Somers’ life; Somers was a well-known golf caddie in the community who died after a February altercation in East Hampton. The site was created to continue Somers' legacy of sporting excellence for local student-athletes. If you are interested in donating, go to The Kevin Somers Scholarship Fund. The site was created by his wife Alicia Osborne. (East Hampton Patch)
