Rural, not Retail
Riverhead's downtown and EPCAL developments spark concern as many residents feel they offer no direct local benefit and fail to preserve the town's cherished rural character. Instead, these projects, many avoiding required town permits, often strain existing infrastructure, natural resources, and services, leading to fears of an increased tax burden on current homeowners. The core issue is a perceived imbalance where large-scale growth outpaces the interests and capacity of the community.
