Operative Text
A license issued pursuant to this chapter shall be valid for one year.
Under Southampton, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 220 § 220-7, any license issued under this chapter has a fixed validity period of one year from the date of issuance. Once that year expires, the license is no longer in effect, and continued operation would require a renewed or new license. This rule establishes a recurring annual cycle for licensing compliance.

Southampton, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 220 § 220-7 sets a one-year term on licenses issued under this chapter, meaning compliant property operators track their license expiration date and initiate renewal before that date passes. Operators generally maintain records of issuance dates and build renewal deadlines into their property management calendars. Allowing a license to lapse can expose a property to unlicensed-operation issues under the broader chapter.

Under ch. 220 § 220-7 of the Southampton Code of Ordinances, a rental or property license is only valid for one year, giving tenants a basis to inquire whether their landlord's license is current. Tenants who suspect a license has lapsed may consider contacting the relevant Southampton municipal office to verify the license status.
