EAST HAMPTON, NY A popular HBO series, Succession, is filming in East Hampton all week.
According to East Hampton Town Councilwoman Kathee Burke-Gonzalez, liaison to the special events committee, representatives for the series applied for a five-day permit and arrived Sunday at Kirk Park in Montauk and are shooting at sites including Shadmoor State Park, a beach on Old Montauk Highway, and on Beach Lane in Wainscott.
So far, the shooting is expected to last until Thursday with an additional day, Friday, still being considered, she said.

A press release issued by theTown says that the project would be the first offshore wind farm in New York State. The turbines will produce enough clean, renewable energy every year to power 70,000 homes, according to a fact sheet available on South Fork Wind’s website.

EAST HAMPTON, NY After years of discussion and deliberation, the East Hampton town board, in a majority vote, approved two agreements with South Fork Wind, LLC, advancing a proposal to build a 15-turbine wind farm in federal waters 30 miles east of Montauk Point.
In his State of the State last week, Gov. Andrew Cuomo said as New Yorkers focus on reconstruction after waging a battle against the coronavirus, the focus is on a green economy. And on Long Island, those plans include the two largest offshore wind projects in the nation, 60 miles offshore from Montauk and 20 miles off Jones Beach, Cuomo said. Training for new, green jobs is slated to take place right on Long Island, Cuomo added.

Agreements for the South Fork Wind Farm cable landing and burial project from Beach Lane in Wainscott to an East Hampton LIPA substation, and for $28.9 in benefits to be paid by the developers to the community, were approved by the East Hampton Town Board on Thursday.
Four out of five Town Council members voted in favor of the agreements, while board member Jeffrey Bragman voted against the Easement Agreement and abstained from the vote on the Host Community Agreement, saying he would have preferred if the town deferred the vote until after the New York Public Service Commission issues a decision on the project.
