Declaration of a State of Emergency in Southampton Town • Southampton, NY

Declaration of a State of Emergency and associated Emergency Orders for the Town of Southampton due to the expected winter storm.

The winter storm is expected to impact the Town of Southampton and cause significant snowfall, wind and cold conditions that will create hazardous conditions within the Town.

In an effort to direct all necessary resources to snow plowing and snow removal operations, and to discourage drivers from being out on the roadways during the storm, all Town facilities normally open on Sundays will be closed effective 5:00AM when the precipitation associated with this storm is anticipated to begin.  Essential employees involved with storm response and public safety will still be performing their necessary operational roles during this time that other facilities are closed. 

The Town will be monitoring the storm and all response efforts and will be evaluating any impacts to the Town’s normal weekday operations during the day tomorrow.  Any alterations to Monday facility openings will be communicated to the public via Notify Me, the Town website, social media, and additional releases.
