    A quaint Hamptons village that is home to Martha Stewart was in uproar over plans to roll out a New York night spot beloved by celebrities including Taylor Swift .

    An attempt to replace luxury 18th century hotel Hedges Inn in East Hampton with popular social club Zero Bond sparked backlash among residents.

    The embattled locals tried to put a stop to the plans with multiple town meetings led by the village mayor.

    Following a series of meetings, they passed a new law which helped put plans for the club, which has hosted celebrities including Elon Musk , Tom Brady and Kim Kardashian , on hold.

    Residents successfully installed an 11 pm curfew for all of the town's 'eating and drinking establishments,' putting a block to the night spot's plans.

    'Let's face it, Zero Bond is really a nightclub,' village administrator Marcos Baladron said at at the meeting on May 17.

    'If it looks like a duck and walks like a duck, it's a duck, and there's no ducks allowed here.'

    But Zero Bond owner Scott Sartiano has now revealed he will be converting the hotel into a branch of his celebrity-magnet restaurant Sartiano's.

    'We don't have plans to open a private club in the Hamptons this summer, but you never know what the future holds.' he told The New York Post.

    'You'll have to wait and see.'

    'I hope to be treated the same as everyone else by the authorities. My only focus this summer is Sartiano's, and being at The Hedges Inn for a very long time.'

    East Hampton Village administrator Baladrón told The Hollywood Reporter : 'Mr. Sartiano has greatly watered down his proposal so that it will simply be an Italian restaurant, and if that's the case, we will roll out the red carpet.

    'But if his ultimate goal is to open another Zero Bond, I think the neighbors should be very wary.'

    Sartiano's is scheduled to open on July 18 at the Hedges Inn.
