Hamptons.com Talks With Southampton Town Council Candidate Stan Glinka

Southampton Town Council Candidate Stan Glinka (Courtesy Photo)

What in your professional background qualifies you to be elected to the Southampton Town Council?

Stan Glinka: I have been in banking for 21 years out on the East End. I am currently a VP at BNB. I have been very involved with civic and charity organizations throughout the town from west to east. I am currently president of the HB chamber of commerce, VP for HB rotary club, President of the Rogers Memorial Library Foundation, Treasurer of the Southampton Business Alliance, Board member for the Dominican Sisters family health services and currently sit on the Audit Advisory Board for the Town of Southampton. Being given the honor of nomination to run for Town Council to me is the next step in my progression of community involvement. Now I can bring my knowledge of the needs and wants of our residents together with my financial expertise and management skills and make a meaningful contribution at Town Hall.

It is difficult, if not impossible, for young people that grew up Southampton Town to remain in the community due mainly to the high property values and taxes, as a member of the Town Council what would you do to solve this problem, if it is solvable at all?

S.G: I am fortunate enough to be able to return here after college and be able to live and work in the Town. Creating Affordable work force housing, giving young adults starting out the opportunity to own something and help them get established. There are many young professionals that cannot afford to buy anything in the community. I would establish a community land trust for affordable home-ownership opportunities and work productively with the town housing authority, the SH Business Alliance Housing Initiative. I would balance our preservation agenda with economic development and meeting house needs for our workforce, emergency responders and next generation of local families and business owners.

Although necessary, if not vital, to the seasonal industries like landscaping, hospitality and construction, the issue of illegal workers is of growing concern to residents. How would you address this issue if elected to the Town Council?

S.G.: Code enforcement issues are significant in some areas of the Town. The work load on the code enforcement personnel is significant. Recognizing the growing nature of the problem, the Town Board should consider holding special meetings, specifically noticed for public hearings dealing with quality of life issues in the affected communities. Looking at the staffing level in code enforcement would also be one the forefront issues. Illegal workers is a federal government issue, as a Town Board member we can enforce overcrowding housing and holding those homeowners allowing it accountable for the safety of others.

Fiscal responsibility in government is an important issue on both federal and local levels with taxpayers demanding accountability more so than ever. How will you assure the Southampton Town taxpayers that their dollars are being well spent and do you see any waste in the Southampton Town budget and departments that you would specifically mitigate or at least redirect to better use?

S.G.: I would be looking at the budget and staffing models for each department in the Town, ensuring that all revenues are being properly allocated for staffing in the areas that are needed. I would also be looking at the monies that are spent on consulting and outside agencies that may not be necessary. Finding creative ways to hold the line on property taxes by controlling government spending, eliminating wastes as mentioned. Improving communications between the taxpayers and concerted efforts to advise of tax relief programs.

Balancing business expansion with environmental preservation is not always an easy task, what measures would you take as a member of the Town Council to improve economic growth while maintaining the open space natural splendor that is iconic to our region?

S.G.: Economic redevelopment is a major concern in the town. Making it more attractive to investors and businesses to come and set up in the Town, by offering incentives whether it be tax based or stream lining the process of setting up a business or redeveloping and refurbishing a commercial property. Working with existing properties in refurbishing them and most importantly listening to the community and what they would like to see developed and refurbished. Providing a transparency in town hall government, we particularly need to open communications up between the Town Trustees and the Town Board. There is a huge communication gap there and I do not understand why.

  • Whether you are walking the fast-paced streets of New York City or taking a leisurely beach stroll in the Hamptons, there’s a slight chance you might run into Elias Friedman, known online as “The Dogist.” His adoration of dogs, combined with his passion for photography, has led him to gain over 7 million followers on Instagram. The audience at his recent Guild Hall show reflects how much people truly love their dogs and how Elias does so much more than simply take picture-perfect dog portraits. He can capture the beautiful bond between man and his best friend. His book, This Dog Will Change Your Life, is already a New York Times bestseller. Guild Hall’s lobby was filled with fans excited to get their copy signed.⁠
⁠
His guests included local dog lovers and friends of ARF (Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons). Attendees had front-row seats to a “Dogist”-style encounter: a casual conversation about how the dog entered the owner’s life, followed by a quick photo shoot revealing Elias’ methods for capturing the dog’s attention (hint: It’s dog noises and treats).⁠
⁠
I had the pleasure of talking to Elias about how “The Dogist” came to be, rescue organizations, and the Hamptons.⁠
⁠
⁠
Let’s go back to the beginning. What inspired you to dive into photography?⁠
⁠
We had a dark room because my dad was an amateur photographer, and I’d always liked cameras and gadgets. We had a couple of Labrador retrievers who were sort of my first muses and would happily sit for pictures. I was taking dog pictures from a young age and then fast forward to 2012 in New York City I was let go from my job and saw what other street photographers were doing like Humans of New York and The Sartorialist and thought why isn’t someone doing that for dogs and I thought I wanted to be the person, I dusted off my camera and the rest is kind of history. It took off pretty quickly because it turns out people like dogs just as much as I do.⁠

  • The Hamptons have seen their fair share of collaborations and takeovers this summer. Still, nothing compares to The h.wood Group and Chase Sapphire Reserve’s transformation of Montauk hotspot Mary Lou’s into Delilah Montauk.⁠
⁠
The four-day takeover combined unforgettable dining experiences with show-stopping live entertainment featuring performances by Zack Bia, Alesso, Gwen Stefani, and DJ Pee.Wee (Anderson Paak). ⁠
⁠
Exclusively for Chase Sapphire Reserve cardholders, diners were treated to white glove hospitality and Delilah’s staples, including the famous chicken tenders and tuna tartare, and bold twists on Hamptons classics like lobster rolls, striped bass crudo, and crab and avocado toast.
