Huntington, NY Special Events & Permits: Commercial Filming on Public Right-of-Way (2026)

Section 108-7(E) of Chapter 108, Film Permits, sits within the insurance and liability provisions but gives the Town Attorney's Office broader scheduling authority over commercial film shoots on Town of Huntington and Board of Trustees property: the Town may place other reasonable conditions as deemed advisable by the Town Attorney and may place reasonable limitations on the days and/or hours of operation based on the specific Town property or facility requested, or the existence of conflicting scheduled events. This means a production company applying under § 108-6 to shoot at a park, beach or other Town facility can have its permitted hours narrowed, or additional conditions imposed, if the Town has a festival, concert, or other public event already booked for that location.

The provision is enforced alongside the rest of Chapter 108's permit machinery: applications go to the Town Attorney's Office at least 48 hours ahead under § 108-6, a certificate of insurance with at least $2 million in general liability coverage is due two business days before filming under § 108-7(A), and the Town may also charge fees or require a security deposit under § 108-7(D) to cover cleanup and use of municipal personnel, which becomes more likely when a shoot must coexist with a concurrent Town event.

Because § 108-7(E) authorizes conditions rather than a flat schedule, the actual limitation on any given date depends on what the Town has already scheduled at that specific location, making early application important for productions targeting popular Town venues during peak event season.
