Congratulation folks, we beat back a plan to create permit-only parking near the beach in Deal where only the residents of those street could get the permits.
Before the meeting of the Mayor and Borough Council, there were conflicting reports as seen Here Additional articles can be found here and here.
Thank to everyone who made it to the Deal council meeting on Friday at 9AM. Please understand that tabling does not mean this issue will be dead. This could be brought up and voted upon at the next council meeting. We will certainly be paying attention to that.
We will certainly keep pressure on Deal and other towns in order to ensure that public beaches remain PUBLIC.
This beach access business made it to the NY Times where they reported about the issue.
We also sent out a letter to the Deal Mayor and Commissioners with many other groups signing on in opposition to the parking ordinance. Listed below is the letter.
