Greetings everyone! Like you, we're

shaking off the winter doldrums and pre-

paring for another fantastic summer in

Seaside Park.

As your Borough Administrator, I lead

Seaside Park's day-to-day operations and

help prepare the annual municipal

budget. I am privileged to serve with

dedicated department heads who to-

gether form a forward-thinking managing

unit. Each department head not only

supervises an excellent group of employ-

ees, but also brings forth new ideas to

improve our community.

Throughout New Jersey, municipalities

are furloughing employees and cutting

services. By contrast, Seaside Park is

committed to doing everything possible

to not only maintain, but even expand ser-

vices without increasing your taxes. Doing

more with less is our creative motto, leading

to cost savings and increased productivity.

Your Borough Council passed the 2011 Sea-

side Park Budget on April 28th, and I am

proud to say there will be no municipal tax

increase for the second consecutive year.

We are already working to create a taxpayer-

friendly 2012 budget, ready to face the chal-

lenges posed by the increasing cost of health-

care, pensions and state mandates.

This present year through 2013 marks Sea-

side Park's 3-year capital improvement

program. Our boardwalk and many of our

municipal buildings require improvements.

Furthermore, we have updated our preven-

tative maintenance program. Listed below

are a general list of capital projects , along

with approximate start times.

1. Phase 1 Water/Sewer………………….……..Present

2. Southeast Marina Breakwater……….…...Present

3.Parking lot #3 paving……………………….…..Present

4. 9th Ave. paving……………………………….….Present

5.Bathhouse rehab………………………………...Present

6. Public Works Building rehab……………….Fall 2011

7. Public Safety Building roof………………….Fall 2011

8.14th Ave bulkhead and beautification…Fall 2011

9. Boardwalk replacement (1 block )………Fall 2011

10.Boardwalk replacement (2 blocks).…..Fall 2012

11. Administration Building rehab..……….Fall 2012

12 Phase 2 Water/Sewer…………………………..Fall 2012

13. Marina Bathrooms ……………………………..Fall 2013

14. I St. walkway & pavilion (marina side)...Fall 2013

15. Parking lot #1……………………………………...Fall 2013

16. Parking lot #2……………………………………...Fall 2013

Need, cost of funding, and seasonality, all go

into determining the priority of each project.

As you can see, we have a busy few years

ahead of us. These long term investments will

only enhance the structural and aesthetic in-

tegrity of Seaside Park.

I thank my administration staff for producing

this quarterly newsletter, along with those

individuals who helped write, edit and publish

it. In addition, I want to recognize the hard

work put forth by Seaside Park's many volun-

teers: including the Tri-Boro First Aid Squad ,

Seaside Park Fire Dept. , Sand Dollar Garden

Club and the Seaside Park Historical Society. I

also thank the volunteers who serve the Sea-

side Park Marina, O Street Park, Recreation and

Administration Office, along with any I may not

have mentioned. It takes community builders

such as these, to keep Seaside Park, the town

we all love to call home.

Thank You and God Bless,

Robert Martucci

Borough of Seaside Park Seal and Flag

The Borough of Seaside Park Seal And Flag were designed by former

Seaside Park resident, Margaret Burke. During the 75th anniversary year,

a contest was held by the anniversary committee seeking a design for the

Borough Flag and Seal. Of the 45 entrants, Margaret Burke, an established

artist, won the contest. The Seaside Park Seal is symbolic of “The Trinity:”

land, sea and air. The seal has three colors: blue for nobility, gold for pre-

ciousness, and white for purity. Land, sea and air are symbolized by the

native beach plum, striped bass and the seagull. The seal’s inner circle is

encircled by gold, representing the sun. The circles are symbolic of eter-

nity, without beginning and without end.

The Borough of Seaside Park Flag, designed by Margaret Burke, has a blue background representing the

connection to the sea. It is similar to the Borough Seal picturing the “trinity” with a white and gold background

and navy letters.

In 1963 Margaret Burke and famed artist Andrew Wyeth were awarded gold medals from the Freedom

Foundation in Philadelphia for defending and upholding American ideals. Margaret was also elected into

Chester County’s Intermediate Unit Hall of Fame for 45 years of dedication and work with children in special

education.

Seaside Park History

Issue 3 - Spring Edition

• When you become frustrated, while driving during the summer season, be glad you have a modern vehicle. During the

1850’s Stagecoaches would transport visitors for 87.5 cents. No air conditioning, just long, bumpy, humid rides, with a few?

mosquitos!

• The war of 1812 saw the return of ship warfare in the area of Barnegat Inlet and Island Beach. The British Ship Ramillies con-

ducted raids to stop American ships from reaching New York. A New Jersey militia was formed to combat these coastal at-

tacks. Increased shipping traffic along the coast’s ever changing shoals, resulted in more shipwrecks. During the winter of

1826-27 over 200 ships were lost. The Jersey coast earned the nickname “the Graveyard of the Atlantic.”

Did you know?

Whaling once played an important part in improving people’s standard of living along the

Jersey Shore. Whale oil was an important fuel for oil lamps, which provided a clear, smoke-

less flame. It was also used to make candles and as a lubricant. Bones of the whales mouth

were used to make stays for corsets.

The Whaling industry was conducted in the Island Beach area. Once the whale was ashore

the blubber was stripped and cut into pieces. The pieces were carried to higher ground and

placed in large cast iron pots. The blubber was heated until the oil separated from the mem-

branous matter. The cooled oil was stored in barrels for shipping.

Whaling was a strenuous and hazardous occupation, not for the faint of heart. The industry

declined when kerosene and petroleum became available.

Municipal Court

(www.njcleanmarina.org). The New Jersey

Clean Marina Program is sponsored by the

NJ DEP and is a voluntary educational pro-

gram that provides information, guidance

and technical assistance to marina opera-

tor, local governments, and recreational

boaters regarding the most effective prac-

tices to protect water quality and coastal

resources. The first step is to sign a pledge

committing to keep New Jersey’s water

and air, free of harmful chemicals, excess

nutrients and debris. Upon completion of

the pledge, we will pursue certification by

measuring the operation of our marina

versus the recommendations in the New

Jersey Clean Marina Guide Book and cor-

recting any problems we may discover. This

will strengthen our dedication to operating

an environmentally friendly marina.

If you have any questions about the marina

operation, please feel free to stop in at the

marina office on site or call me John Kleva

at 848-992-6085.

Spring has finally arrived. On April 1st

the Seaside Park Marina officially

opened for the season. The Marina is

full again! We look forward to welcom-

ing new and returning boaters. We

know everyone will be anxious to ex-

perience another safe and fun filled

summer on the waters of the Barnegat

Bay.

Stacks of lumber were delivered to the

marina. This is the last installment of

material, to complete the total re-

decking of all the piers and docks in the

marina. This project was started two

years ago and should be completed this

year, thanks to the marina staff and the

group of marina volunteers. This is just

one of many preventative maintenance

projects that are constantly occurring at

the marina.

Another major project, that will be com-

pleted this spring, is the replacement of

the south breakwater at the marina en-

trance. The breakwater has many holes

in it and is allowing silt to pass through,

which is filling the main entrance channel

of the marina. If not repaired, we would

have needed to dredge the entrance.

This would be more expensive and would

take a lot longer to fix. The bid for this

project was awarded to Channel Marine

Contractors. This is the same contractor

that installed the new 13th Avenue

launching ramp last year. They should

start re-construction in the next few

weeks and complete the job before Me-

morial Day weekend. We do not antici-

pate any interference for boaters enter-

ing or leaving the marina during the con-

struction phase.

This summer we will be applying for cer-

tification as a New Jersey Clean Marina

The court is beginning it’s busy season,

we have a new computer to help keep

our office more efficient. Have a super

and safe summer!

The Police Department is busy mak-

ing preparations for upcoming

spring/summer seasons. Our SLEO

Class II Officers continue to train at

the Ocean County Police Academy.

They have been attending the acad-

emy since December and will

graduate in May. Our SLEO I Offi-

cers have been hired and are cur-

rently training at the Seaside

Heights Satellite Classroom of the Ocean

County Police Academy and finished up in

April. All will be ready to work for the Memo-

rial Day Weekend. Our full time regular Po-

lice Officers continue to undergo in-service

training including firearms training. Our busi-

est day, so far, this year was on March 12th,

the day of the Saint Patrick’s Day Parade. The

aftermath of the parade produced arrests for

disorderly conduct and DWI. Numerous Bor-

ough Summonses for various violations in-

cluding parking violations were issued. The

Detective Bureau continues to investigate the

scrap metal thefts, which is a statewide prob-

lem. If you see any suspicious vehicles, per-

Parking Meters

Parking Meter Department: Jeff Cordaro

For emergencies regarding Parking Meters

please contact the Police Department .

A brief history on Parking Meters:

The Parking Meter as we know it today, began in 1933. Due to cars parking in

front of stores for long periods of time, the merchants of Oklahoma City were

trying to develop a way to increase traffic turnover in front of their stores. A

contest was developed for engineering students at the local university to de-

velop a working timing meter device. The grand prize was $500.00. A handful

of the parking meters were placed on one side of the street. After just three

days, traffic flowed better on the side of the street with parking meters and

businesses experienced better customer flow. Thus, the parking meter con-

test was a huge success. Thanks to the Pom Parking Meter Corporation.

Spring is finally here!

STORMWATER EDUCATION - When it rains in Seaside Park, storm water flows over our driveways, streets, lawns, and sidewalks.

Along the way, it picks up debris, dirt, chemicals, oil, pet waste, and other pollutants. All of these things flow into storm drains

and go DIRECTLY into the Barnegat Bay! Storm drains in Seaside Park do not lead to a treatment plant! Anything that goes into

our storm drains will make its way into the bay.

In order to minimize this here are some things we all can do and help combat this:

• Pet waste must be picked up and disposed of properly – Ord. 1372 • Utilize the dog waste bags located around town. • Do not feed wildlife on any property owned by the Borough of Seaside Park – Ord. 1373 • Do not litter, place all garbage and recycling in their proper containers – Ord. 1374 • Drain your swimming pool when a test kit does not detect chlorine levels. • Use a commercial carwash or wash your car on your lawn to minimize the amount of dirty, soapy water

making its way into a storm drain and into the Barnegat Bay. • Check your vehicles and boats for leaks or spills. Clean up with an absorbent material like kitty litter or

sand and dispose of properly. Do not rinse into the street. • Recycle used oil at the Seaside Park Recycling Center at 14th and Barnegat Avenues. Please place your

used oil in a detergent bottle or something similar in the Enviro-Shed. Do not dump your oil container. • Used fertilizers and pesticides sparingly. Avoid application if rain is in the forecast. Read the label and

follow the directions! • Use nontoxic, biodegradable, recycled and recyclable products whenever possible. • Sweep your driveway and sidewalk rather than hose it down. (It’s also a waste of water!) • DO NOT DUMP ANYTHING INTO A STORM DRAIN! • If you see someone deliberately dumping anything into a storm drain call the police at 732-793-8000, the

DPW at 732-793-5100, or 1-877-WARN-DEP to report it.

Water Conservation Tips: • Clean the driveway and sidewalks with a broom instead of a hose to save hundreds of gallons of water.

• Go to the carwash, most carwashes use re-claimed water. This reduces the use of freshwater.

• Raise your lawnmower blade to at least 3”: taller grass holds soil moisture better.

• Water your lawn and garden in the morning or evening hours, when temperatures are cooler to minimize evaporation.

• Share water conservation tips with family, friends and neighbors.

The Water & Sewer work is winding down along East & West Central Avenues from O

Street to Porter Avenues and from 14th to 8th Avenues on the East side of Central Ave-

nue. Thank you for your patience throughout this project. It is a necessary upgrade to our

water and sewer system.

Inside this newsletter is the 2011 Consumer Confidence Report. We are pleased to an-

nounce, Seaside Park’s Water meets all federal and state safety requirements. If you have

any questions regarding the Consumer Confidence Report (CCR), please call the Water

Department at 732-793-5100.

Reminder: The Water Department requires a 48 hour notice for water turn ons and offs.

Please keep this in mind when prepping your home for the winter or summer.

Please remember to conserve water!

We are pleased to present to you this year’s Annual Drinking Water Quality Report. This report is designed to inform

you about the quality water and services we deliver to you every day. Our constant goal is to provide you with a safe

and dependable supply of drinking water.

We are pleased to report that our drinking water meets all federal and state safety requirements.

Our drinking water is supplied by the Borough’s four wells which draw water from the Piney Point aquifer, a compos-

ite confining unit, more than 500 feet underground. We can purchase water from the Seaside Heights Water Dept. or

the Shore Water Co. if needed.

The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (NJDEP) has completed and issued the Source Water As-

sessment Report and Summary for this public water system, which can be obtained by logging onto NJDEP’s source

water assessment web site at www.state.nj.us/dep/swap or by contacting NJDEP’s Bureau of Safe Drinking Water at

609-292-5550. You may also contact the Borough of Seaside Park Water-Sewer Utility at 732-793-5100. This water

system’s susceptibility ratings and a list of its potential contaminant sources is attached. We have a source water pro-

tection plan available for review at our office. The plan provides more information such as potential sources of con-

tamination.

Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-

compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ

transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at

risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDC

guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by cryptosporidium and other microbiological contami-

nants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline at 800-426-4791.

The sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) included rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs,

springs and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring

minerals and in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or

from human activity. Contaminants that may be present in the source water include:

• Microbial contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from sewage treatment plants, septic sys-

tems, agricultural livestock operations, and wildlife.

• Inorganic contaminants such as: salts and metals, which can be naturally-occurring or result from urban storm

water-runoff, and residential uses.

• Pesticides and herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban storm-water run-

off, and septic systems.

• Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals, which are byproducts of in-

dustrial processes and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban storm-water runoff,

and septic systems.

• Radioactive contaminants, which can be naturally occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining

activities.

In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, EPA prescribes regulations which limit the amount of certain con-

taminants in water provided by public water systems. Food and Drug Administration regulations establish limits for

contaminants in bottled water, which must provide the same protection for public health.

Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some

2011 DRINKING WATER QUALITY REPORT - BOROUGH OF SEASIDE PARK

PWSID# 1527001 - Results from 2010


contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk. More

information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the Environmental Protec-

tion Agency’s Safe Drinking Hotline at 1-800-426-4791.

The Safe Drinking Water Act regulations allow monitoring waivers to reduce or eliminate the monitoring require-

ments for asbestos and synthetic organic chemicals. Our system received monitoring waivers for both of these types

of contaminants. As a precautionary measure, our water is disinfected using a sodium hypochlorite solution.

We want you to be informed about the quality of our water and the Water-Sewer Utility operated by the Borough

of Seaside Park under direction of the Mayor and Borough Council.

If you have any questions about this report or the Water-Sewer Utility, please contact Water Superintendent

DEFINITIONS:

In the table above you will find many terms and abbreviations you might not be familiar with. To help you better understand these terms we've provided the following definitions:

Non-Detects (ND) - laboratory analysis indicates that the constituent is not present.

Parts per million (ppm) or Milligrams per liter (mg/l) - one part per million corresponds to one minute in two years or a single penny in $10,000.

Parts per billion (ppb) or Micrograms per liter - one part per billion corresponds to one minute in 2,000 years, or a single penny in $10,000,000.

Picocuries per liter (pCi/L) - picocuries per liter is a measure of the radioactivity in water.

Action Level - the concentration of a contaminant, which if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements which a water system must follow.

Maximum Contaminant Level - The “Maximum Allowed” (MCL) is the highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as feasible using the best available treatment technology.

Maximum Contaminant Level Goal -The “Goal”(MCLG) is the level of a contaminant in drinking water below which there is

no known or expected risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety.

Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level (MRDL): The highest level of a disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is convincing evidence that addition of a disinfectant is necessary for control of microbial contaminants.

Lead: If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking

water is primarily from materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. The Seaside Park Water-Sewer Utility is responsible for providing high quality drinking water, but can not control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water has been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by flushing your tap for 30 second to 2 minutes before using water for drinking and cooking. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your water tested. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water hotline or at http://www.epa.gov/safewater/lead

Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level Goal (MRDLG): The level of a drinking water disinfectant, below which there is no known or expected risk to health. MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants to control microbial contamination.

Recommended Upper Limit - (RUL) Recommended maximum concentration of secondary contaminants. RUL’s are recommendations, not man-

dates.

Secondary Contaminant - Substances that do not have an impact on health. Secondary contaminants affect aesthetic qualities such as odor, taste or

appearance. Secondary standards are recommendations, not mandates.

Sodium: For healthy individuals the sodium intake from water is not important, because a much greater intake of sodium takes place from salt in

the diet. However, sodium levels above the RUL may be of concern to individuals on a sodium restricted diet.

SUSCEPTIBILTY RATINGS FOR SEASIDE PARK WATER UTILITY SOURCES

The Seaside Park Water and Sewer Utility is a public community water system consisting of 4 wells, 0 wells under the influence of surface water, 0

surface water intakes, 2 purchased ground water sources, and 0 purchased surface water sources. The system’s source water comes from the fol-

lowing aquifer: composite confining unit. The system purchases water from the following if needed: Shore WC, Seaside Heights WD. The fol-

lowing table illustrates the susceptibility ratings for the seven contaminant categories (and radon) for each source in the system. The table provides

the numbers of wells and intakes that rated high (H), medium (M), or low (L) for each contaminant category. For susceptibility ratings of pur-

chased water, refer to the specific water system’s source water assessment report.

The seven contaminant categories are defined at the bottom of this page. DEP considered all surface water highly susceptible to pathogens, there-

fore all intakes received a high rating for the pathogen category. For the purpose of Source Water Assessment Program, radionuclides are more of a

concern for ground water than surface water. As a result, surface water intakes’ susceptibility to radionuclides was not determined and they all

received a low rating.

If a system is rated highly susceptible for a contaminant category, it does not mean a customer is or will be consuming contaminated

drinking water. The rating reflects the potential for contamination of source water, not the existence of contamination. Public water systems are

required to monitor for regulated contaminants and to install treatment if any contaminants are detected at frequencies and concentrations above

allowable levels. As a result of the assessments, DEP may customize (change existing) monitoring schedules based on the susceptibility ratings.

DEFINITIONS:

Disinfection Byproduct Precursors: A common source is naturally occurring organic matter in surface water. Disinfection byproducts are formed when the disinfectants (usually chlorine) used to kill pathogens reacts with dissolved organic material (for example leaves) present in surface water.

Inorganics: Mineral-based compounds that are both naturally occurring and man-made. Examples include arsenic, asbestos, copper, lead, and nitrate.

Nutrients: Compounds, minerals and elements that aid growth, that are both naturally occurring and man-made. Examples include nitrogen and phosphorous.

Pathogens: Disease- causing organisms such as bacteria and viruses. Common sources are animal and human fecal wastes.

Pesticides: Man-made chemicals used to control pests, weeds, and fungus. Common sources include land application and manufacturing centers of pesticides. Examples include herbicides such as atrazine, and insecticides such as chlordane.

Radionuclides: Radioactive substances that are both naturally occurring and man-made. Examples include radium and uranium.

Radon: Colorless, odorless, cancer-causing gas that occurs naturally in the environment. For more information go to www.nj.gov/dep/rpp/radon/index.htm or call 800-648-0394.

Volatile Organic Compounds: Man-made chemicals used as solvents, degreasers, and gasoline components. Examples include benzene, methyl tertiary ether (MTBE), and vinyl chloride.


SEASIDE PARK DOCUMENT SHREDDING

SATURDAY, JUNE 4th

2011 (9am to 1pm) - Green Day Fair – J Street Marina

The Borough of Seaside Park is sponsoring a document shredding service free of charge from 9am to 1pm

at the Marina in association with the Seaside Park Green Day Fair on Saturday June 4, 2011. This is your

chance to get rid of personal/confidential documents that you have been storing and do not feel comfort-

able recycling in the traditional manner. You do not need to remove staples or paperclips.

Please make the best attempt at removing documents from metal binders.

If you miss this event, Ocean County will be sponsoring another event at the Seaside Park Recycling Yard at

14th

and Barnegat Avenues on Friday September 16, 2011.

Please call Eric Wojciechowski at 732-793-5100 if you require more information on either of the shredding

events.

Please take

advantage of

this great

opportunity!


MARINE MAMMAL STRANDING INFORMATION

If you encounter a dolphin, whale, seal, or sea turtle on the beach, whether it is alive or dead, PLEASE do

not touch it or attempt to help it. Call the marine mammal stranding center at 609-266-0538. You can also

call the police department at 732-793-8000.

“While the sight of a helpless animal wounded or dying on the beach can be touchingly painful, and pro-

voke feelings of frustration or “the need to help,” please be aware that in the United States it is illegal for

anyone without a scientific permit to handle a marine mammal. All animals, injured or stressed, can be

dangerous. Although seals appear to be harmless, they have sharp teeth and claws and can inflict a very

nasty bite. They often carry viruses that can be transmitted to humans. To avoid serious injury or possible

infection, stay clear of any stranded animal.”-MMSC

Garbage and Recycling


ants are aware that their recycling will

NOT be picked up if placed in plastic

bags.

Recycling enforcement personnel will be

doing periodic random inspections to

ensure residents and businesses are

recycling. If you are not recycling, it’s

never too late to start!

Our recycling center at 14th

and Barne-

gat Aves currently has one container for

single stream. You may use the single

stream container or continue to use the

separate containers. More single

stream containers will be added soon.

Please do not place plastic bags in ANY

of the containers or tie any of your ma-

terials together with string or tape.

A note to residents regarding the size of

your garbage and recycling cans.

Reminder:

• Garbage cans are limited to 45 gal-

lons in capacity and 50 pounds in weight

when filled.

• Residents with oversize garbage

cans are being tagged with a yellow

sticker. A notice will then be hand deliv-

ered to your address. You will have two

weeks from the date on the notice to

replace your oversized garbage can.

Cans designed for automated truck

pickup are dangerous to our employees.

• Please do not fill your garbage cans

with sand, dirt, or concrete.

• Garbage cans exceeding the weight

limit will not be picked up.

• Recycling cans are limited to 32

gallons in capacity and 50 pounds in

Seaside Park will be hosting an Ocean

County sponsored document shredding

program on Friday September 16, 2011 in

the Seaside Park Recycling Yard located

at 14th

and Barnegat Aves. This is a free

program for residents! No appointment

is necessary. This is your chance to safely

get rid of personal/confidential docu-

ments that you may be storing and do

not feel comfortable recycling the tradi-

tional way. Please take advantage of this

free program to avoid identity theft.

Effective January 1, 2011 – TV's*, com-

puters, and computer monitors CANNOT

be placed in the garbage. We offer a free

Thursday pickup for these items. Please

call 732-793-5100 to schedule a pickup.

You may also bring those devices along

with radios, VCR’s, DVD players, tele-

phones, microwaves, toaster ovens, etc.

to the Seaside Park Recycling Yard at 14th

& Barnegat Aves. *PLEASE NOTE: Pickup

of TV’s over 20” will require a bulk trash

permit of $10. Please do not bring air

only recycling bottles and cans. We re-

mind you that every household, business,

and institution is required to recycle cor-

rugated cardboard and paper as well.

We would like to see an increase in the

amount of corrugated cardboard, news-

paper, and junk mail placed in your recy-

cling containers.

Please remember, recycling is the law,

not an option. It saves the Borough of

Seaside Park tens of thousands of dollars

every year in avoided landfill disposal

fees. It’s also the right thing to do!

Property owners must ensure their ten-

ants and renters are recycling. Violations

and summonses will be issued to the

property owner, so please make sure

your tenants and renters are aware of

the garbage and recycling procedures.

Please make sure your renters and ten-

items will be picked up every Thursday at

the curb.

The Construction Office is still in the

process of receiving permits to demolish

houses and reconstruct them. A permit is

required to re-side or re-roof your home.

Our Berkeley Inspectors are in Tuesday

and Thursday mornings. Please call a day

late fee of $25.00 will be charged before

an inspection can be completed. Please

remember it is the homeowner’s re-

sponsibility to schedule the inspections.

Our Zoning Officer, Jim Anderson, has

been very busy with new constructions,

additions, and various zoning issues. If

you stop in our office with any zoning

Seaside Park Fire Volunteer Fire Department in the Ocean County St. Patrick’s Day

Parade held in Seaside Heights.

On April 12th, the fire company visited

the children of the Seaside Park Recrea-

tion Center for a fire safety seminar and

tour of Fire Snorkel Truck 4505.

It is always exhilarating to get out of the

firehouse and celebrate with the commu-

nity. Thank you for your continued sup-

port!

ALERT!

The National Fire Protection Associa-

tion says that nearly 900 lives could be

saved each year, if every home had

working smoke detectors. The fire com-

pany recommends changing the batter-

ies in smoke and carbon monoxide de-

tectors twice a year, during daylight

savings times. March 13th was the

“spring-ahead time”, if you didn’t

change your batteries then, please do so

now and during the “fall-back time”

change the batteries again.

During the winter months, the Fire Com-

pany was busy responding to emergencies

and conducting a variety of community

activities. Local families came to the fire

station to learn about fire safety and tour

the fire trucks and equipment in the fire-

house.

On February 26th the Seaside Park Volun-

teer Fire Co. Water Rescue Unit assisted

the Seaside Heights Fire Company and Tri-

Boro First Aid Squad at the 2011 Polar Bear

Plunge. The purpose of deploying the Wa-

ter Rescue Unit is to provide assistance to

the more than 5,100 participants who

“plunged” into the cold Atlantic Ocean to

raise money and awareness for the Special

Olympics New Jersey. This year “the

plunge” raised $1.3 million dollars to

benefit the more than 21,000 Special

Olympic Athletes that train and compete,

year round, throughout New Jersey.

We appreciate your support and hope

you all have a safe summer!

The New Year brought new experiences

and challenges to the Seaside Park Vol-

unteer Fire Co. In January, Chief Paul

Wroblewski, Jr. stepped down after 2

years of service as Chief. This was his

second term as Fire Chief. On January 4,

2011 the position was filled by Michael

Tumolo. The new Fire Chief was sworn in

and looks forward to continuing the tradi-

tion of professionalism and service to the

community of Seaside Park.

We are preparing for the busy

summer season, checking inven-

tory, stocking the rigs with extra

supplies and ordering supplies as

needed.

I retired as Chief of Police on May 1, 2011. It has been a privi-

lege to have served the residents of Seaside Park for nearly 33

years, during which time I have made many lasting friendships,

interacted with many of you, assisted you or your family and

friends, or maybe said hello in passing. I leave behind a depart-

ment consisting of outstanding people who serve the resident’s

day in and day out, are dedicated and well trained, and are com-

mitted to the philosophy of making Seaside Park a safe place

for everyone, the “Family Resort.” My successor, Lt. Francis

Larkin brings an outstanding background of service (over 22

years) education, training and leadership to the department that

will make a great department even better, and will serve the

residents of Seaside Park well.

I would like to thank the Mayors and Council, now and in the

past, the Borough Administrators, and all of the Borough em-

ployees who helped and assisted me as Chief, and even before I

assumed that position. I want to thank my wife Lisa and son

Edward for their love and support. I want to thank the many

residents who have and continue to support the police depart-

ment. I won’t be going far as my family and I will remain resi-

dents of Seaside Park and enjoy the many great things this small

town has to offer.

Fun Facts Sand Crabs are no bigger than a thumb and spend most of their time buried in shifting sand. Well camou-

flaged by their gray shell, a sand crab keeps its balance in the ever-moving sand with the help of a heavily

armored, curved body and pointy legs. While most crabs move in any direction, a sand crab only moves

backward and has no claws on its first pair of legs-unusual features for a crab!

Laboratories use sand crabs in neurological studies because the sand crabs’ tails have the largest sensory

neurons found in any animal.
