STR operators in Islip must provide off-street parking for guests consistent with Chapter 68 zoning requirements. On-street parking restrictions and Fire Island pedestrian zones limit guest vehicle use in beach communities.
Islip zoning generally requires 2 off-street parking spaces per dwelling unit, and the rental permit inspection confirms compliance. Guests cannot park on lawns or block sidewalks. In Fire Island communities served by ferry, most hamlets are car-free and guest vehicles must be left at mainland ferry terminal parking lots in Bay Shore or Patchogue. Overnight street parking restrictions apply in many Islip hamlets between 2 AM and 6 AM from November through April.
Parking on lawns or blocking sidewalks carries fines of 50-250 dollars. Overnight parking violations in restricted zones carry 40-75 dollar tickets.
