The Southampton village board voted 4-1 on Aug. 19 to impose a two-week minimum rental period across the beach community, effectively eliminating weekend short-term rentals. The rule applies to the core Southampton beach village but not to other villages in the wider township. Typical weekend stays that cost $900–$2,000 could rise to roughly $10,000–$15,000 for a two-week booking. The change responds to frequent local noise complaints about rotating weekend renters and follows similar bans already adopted in neighboring South Fork communities.
We have been getting complaints from people in the village that the house next door is having lots of different renters coming in every weekend, and causing a disruption to the peace and harmony,
They came to me as the mayor and asked, 'Can't you do something about this?'
All those girls and bridesmaids weekends are out of luck now,
