West Hampton Dunes, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 440 (eCode360 ed. 2026) § 440-14
Nontransferability
Operative Text
A seasonal rental permit shall not be transferred or assigned to any person or used by any person other than the permitee to whom it was issued.
Section 440-14 of the West Hampton Dunes Code of Ordinances establishes that a seasonal rental permit is tied exclusively to the individual who received it. The permit cannot be handed off, reassigned, or shared with any other person. This rule prevents permit holders from transferring their authorization to rent seasonally to a third party.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 440-14, compliant operators ensure that a seasonal rental permit is used solely by the named permitee and is never transferred, assigned, or lent to another individual. Property owners and managers should verify that any permit on file reflects the current, authorized permitee before any rental activity begins. Keeping permit records accurate and up to date helps demonstrate ongoing compliance with this nontransferability requirement.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 440-14 means that a seasonal rental permit is valid only for the specific person to whom it was issued, which can affect the legitimacy of a rental arrangement if the permit holder is not the party actually operating the rental. Tenants who have questions about whether a permit is properly held may contact the West Hampton Dunes municipal offices to verify permit status. Tenant-rights organizations can also help explain what options may be available when a rental's permit appears to be improperly transferred or assigned.
