Happy Fall! Here are some of the issues on the Orient Association’s agenda

It’s Summer and we are all enjoying everything that Orient has to offer at this time of year. The bountiful farm produce, beautiful beaches, clean water, fresh air and open spaces. Since part of our mission is to keep you informed about the issues that might affect you, here are some heads-ups!

At the Orient Association 2024 Annual Meeting on June 8 our guest speaker Mary Anne Taylor presented the results of the Orient Water Management Study.

The OA Water Committee recently met with consultants at CDM Smith to discuss present and future recommendations that the community should consider to sustain the health of our water resources. While the consultant has analyzed historical data from private well testing performed by Suffolk County Department Health Services, we did not have much information about how folks in the community are coping with issues of contamination and reliability. Here are the results of our October 2023 survey.

Happy Spring everyone! As I write this, it already feels like summer. Speaking of summer—the Orient Association’s Annual Meeting—usually scheduled for the Memorial Day weekend, is going to take place on June 8th at 2:00pm.

Once again this has been a busy year for the Orient Association. Thank you to all who have participated in and supported OA’s activities. Here are some of the things that have been on our agenda in 2023.
