West Hampton Dunes, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 440 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 440-8
Permit required
Operative Text
A one-family dwelling shall not be used or occupied as a seasonal rental unless the owner thereof shall first obtain and maintain in effect, at all times during the term thereof, a seasonal rental permit from the Village of West Hampton Dunes.
Section 440-8 of the West Hampton Dunes Code of Ordinances establishes that any one-family dwelling rented out on a seasonal basis must be covered by a valid seasonal rental permit issued by the Village of West Hampton Dunes. The permit must be obtained before the rental begins and kept active for the entire duration of the rental term. Operating a seasonal rental without this permit in place is a violation of the ordinance.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 440-8, property owners who rent a one-family dwelling on a seasonal basis in West Hampton Dunes are generally expected to apply for and receive a seasonal rental permit from the Village before any tenancy begins. Compliant operators keep the permit continuously in effect throughout the rental period, not just at the start. Allowing a seasonal rental to continue after a permit lapses or before one is issued would place the owner in violation of this provision.

Section 440-8 gives seasonal renters a basis to verify that their landlord holds a valid seasonal rental permit from the Village of West Hampton Dunes for the duration of their tenancy. If a permit was never obtained or has lapsed, that may constitute a violation of the local code, which tenants can raise with Village officials or explore with a tenant-rights organization. Consulting local housing resources or an attorney familiar with New York landlord-tenant law can help clarify what remedies may be available in connection with a permit violation under this provision.
