Mission & Responsibilties
Code Enforcement in the town of Southampton involves many sections of the town code. The code is viewable online, which for your convenience is viewable online at the town web site.
We investigate violations such as:
- Property maintenance issues
- Litter and debris
- Overcrowded houses
- Parking complaints
- Noise complaints
- Rental law permit violations
- Peddler permit investigations
- Taxi permit investigations
- Building without a permit
Code enforcement officials are sensitive to needs of the residents and investigate all complaints in an expeditious manner. If you report a complaint that we do not investigate we will direct you to the proper department to resolve the situation. In an effort to become more efficient in our work early in 2008 we added an online link to permit emailing of complaints directly to code enforcement. This has met with tremendous success and we have addresses many issues for the residents in this manner.
The department works seven days a week primarily during the normal business hours. During the summer time, extended hours are scheduled to provide for investigation of weekend code violations that are reported.
