My name is Jason, and I’m part of the Civic Engagement Team at Change.org. Our mission is to connect petition supporters with decision makers and to help foster healthy civic engagement in our communities.

We received an update related to the petition for an East End year-round resident beach access pass. Petition organizers and supporters have been encouraged to bring this concept directly to the Southampton Village Board of Trustees at its upcoming meeting with public comment.

The meeting is currently listed on the Southampton Village calendar for Thursday, July 9, 2026, from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM, at 23 Main Street, Southampton, NY 11968. Meeting details are available on the Southampton Village calendar.

Residents who wish to speak may have up to 3 minutes during public comment. If organizers would like to make a more substantial presentation, they can contact the Mayor, who oversees the agenda, at wmanger@southamptonvillage.gov.

This is a useful opportunity for petition supporters to explain why year-round resident beach access matters to them.

We hope you found this update helpful.
