I'm not taking issue with playgrounds, tennis courts, and pools being limited to residents, I am taking issue with paths being restricted.
People in towns and counties pay for parks in their taxes, yet I can go and walk around Firemans Park in Brookhaven Town, or Red Creek Park in Southampton with no problem. What makes East Hills so special?

East Hills wants to keep their "exclusive" image paid for by the ultra-high taxes in the area. The club was "supposed" to keep their real estate valuations bulletproof - - but EH real estate has really taken a hit over the past year. Country Estates homes and Norgate can be had for the mid-high 7's now - - and those arent necessarily fixer-uppers either. Two years ago, those same homes were selling in the 9's.
