My brain is fried...if anyone can/wants to modify the title of the post please do so. I'll attempt to post this w/o giving the background of the tool...if that is necessary I'll happily provide it. Here is my code:
import arcpy, os, sys, math
#Environment settings
outGDB = arcpy.env.scratchGDB
arcpy.env.workspace = outGDB
arcpy.env.overwriteOutput = True
#Local Variables
#startingPt = arcpy.GetParameterAsText(0)
#sampleNumber = int(arcpy.GetParameterAsText(1))
#interDist = int(arcpy.GetParameterAsText(2))
startingPt = "startingPoints"
interDist = 660
outName = "cruisePoints"
#Create target point FC
sr = arcpy.Describe(startingPt).spatialReference
outPoint = arcpy.CreateFeatureclass_management(outGDB,outName,"POINT","","","",sr)
arcpy.AddField_management(outPoint, "CLUSTER_ID", "TEXT", "", "", "", "", "NULLABLE", "NON_REQUIRED", "")
arcpy.AddField_management(outPoint, "PLOT_ID", "TEXT", "", "", "", "", "NULLABLE", "NON_REQUIRED", "")
#Open Insert Cursor
insert = arcpy.da.InsertCursor(outPoint,["SHAPE@XY","CLUSTER_ID","PLOT_ID"])
fields = ["SHAPE@X", "SHAPE@Y", "OID@"]
with arcpy.da.SearchCursor(startingPt, fields) as cursor:
for row in cursor:
#Set Start points
startX = row[0]
startY = row[1]
cluster = row[2]
print(startX,startY)
#Calculate quadrant points
northX = row[0]
northY = row[1] + interDist
print(northX, northY)
eastX = row[0] + interDist
eastY = row[1]
southX = row[0]
southY = row[1] - interDist
westX = row[0] - interDist
westY = startY
start = arcpy.Point(startX, startY)
print(start)
north = arcpy.Point(northX, northY)
east = arcpy.Point(eastX, eastY)
south = arcpy.Point(southX, southY)
west = arcpy.Point(westX, westY)
insert.insertRow([start,row,cluster])
insert.insertRow([north,row,cluster])
insert.insertRow([east,row,cluster])
insert.insertRow([south,row,cluster])
insert.insertRow([west,row,cluster])
del cursorWhen pasting into the Python Console in Desktop I get the following error (note the third print as well)

bixb0012 Thanks for the response. I tried the modification (and I see your point now...no pun intended), but I'm still getting the same error:
Below is a portion of the code, line 48 from the error is line 27 below.

Ok, so now we get to the background. I have another script which creates points spaced at a regular interval. These are the 'starting points' for field sampling. The field tech navigates to that location, does the sampling work, and then has 4 other points associated with the particular starting point which they need to conduct the same work at. A total of 5 points. These five points constitute a 'cluster'. The points in each each cluster need to be identified/associated with the cluster ("CLUSTER_ID"), but also have a unique value ("PLOT_ID"); concatenating the two would give you a unique value for each point for the entire project.
FWIW, the error raised has to do with 'value 1' which seems to be the XY.
Anyway, here's a graphic of what I'm trying to achieve.
