In 1910, New York State made it possible for tiny neighborhoods to incorporate as villages. Some villages incorporated to dodge local taxes, or escape a school district they didn't feel like contributing towards. But many villages incorporated to prevent outsiders - even people who lived just a couple of miles away - from enjoying the public beaches within the village limits.
This episode is about Mill Neck, Bayville, and Sands Point, and how they manipulated local laws to keep the public off the public beaches.
