Southampton Village, NY Parking Rules: Snow Removal Parking Rules (2026)

Section 110-23 of the Southampton Village Code sets a fixed overnight window rather than a list of snow emergency routes. The prohibition covers any street in the Village of Southampton and runs from 3:30 a.m. to 6:00 a.m. It switches on only when snow from the current storm has built up to a depth of one inch or more on the street involved. The code also covers storms that begin late: the ban applies on any day when snow fell between 11:30 p.m. on the preceding day and 3:30 a.m. on that day and has accumulated to one inch or more on the street.

The section does not create a separate fee schedule. Because it is not a Schedule L restriction, the $75 and $150 fixed fines in § 110-4(B) do not name it, and the general penalty in § 110-4(A) is the one that fits a Chapter 110 offense that is not a Vehicle and Traffic Law offense. That is a traffic infraction with a fine of not more than $75 or imprisonment for not more than 15 days, or both, for a first conviction.

Removal is a separate exposure. Under § 110-28(B), vehicles parked or abandoned on Village streets, parking areas or Village land during snowstorms, floods, fires or other public emergencies are removed by the Police Department to a suitable place at the owner's or operator's cost. Before a removal, the Mayor, Deputy Mayor, a Trustee or the Chief of Police must find that a public emergency exists and take reasonable steps to notify the public and vehicle owners, such as notice to a radio station that broadcasts in or near the Village or a telephone call to the owner's home or business. Section 110-29 caps the removal expense at $35 between 6:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. and $50 between 6:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m., plus reasonable storage charges. Section 110-30 makes the Chief of Police responsible for trying to identify the owner and report the removal and the amount needed to redeem the vehicle.
