MAYOR'S MESSAGE
|
On December 4, I attended a brunch at the Icona Golden Inn in Avalon, where funds were being raised for the Diocese of Les Cayes, Haiti. Haitian Cardinal
Chibly Langlois was also in attendance, and it was a pleasure to hear his many words of wisdom. In addition to myself, there were also numerous people from Sea Isle City in attendance, including Deacon Joe Murphy, of Saint Joseph Church, and other folks who were eager to show support for the people of Haiti <<

CITY COUNCIL'S MESSAGE
|
During our most recent City Council meeting, which took place on November 29, no ordinances were introduced and each resolution on the consent agenda was approved. During the "Pending Business" portion of the November 29 meeting, we had a thorough discussion about Sea Isle's 2017-2021 Capital Plan. Prior to November 29, City Council hosted a very productive Capital Plan Workshop in October, which was open to the public. As this process moves forward, it is expected that the 2017-2021 Capital Plan will be put forth and adopted in December (after a few minor adjustments are made to the plan). <<READ MORE>>

MASTER PLAN RE-EXAM
|
View The Latest Draft Online
The draft master plan re-examination is available for review on the Sea Isle City municipal website
www.seaislecitynj.us
. Previously, the Planning Board's goal was to adopt the re-examination at their December 12 meeting, however, based on recent progress with advancement of a fair housing plan, the recommendation of the board solicitor and the contracted planner is to wait for completion of the housing element of the master plan re-examination prior to adoption. This will allow the re-examination to be adopted one time, rather than amending it after completion of the housing element. In order not to delay other items that the planning board believes are worthy of attention, at the December 12 meeting it is expected that the board will discuss planning objectives and priorities not impacted by the housing element that should be submitted for consideration by the governing body and administration.
