LTV, East Hampton's public access television station, has launched a GoFundMe campaign to raise money for a new roof. According to the fund-raising website, estimates to replace the roof run between $236,000 and $356,000. Michael Clark, the nonprofit station's executive director, said parts of the roof are already leaking and are beyond repair.

"We've done several repairs on it already and have been told that it's time. . . . As a not-for-profit, those numbers are not within reach," Mr. Clark said on the GoFundMe page. "We are seeking loans and grants plus donations to help offset loan possibilities."

As of Tuesday afternoon, the campaign had raised $500 of its $100,000 goal. The fund-raiser can be found online at gofund.me/3b03ef76.
