LAST SUNDAY_ GREAT TURNOUT!!!

Thanks- and really looking forward to seeing you all! Sign up a friend or 2- we’d love to have a good showing!  Our future Walks and speakers are as follows:

Last Saturday we had our third “Saturday in the Park Summer Concert Series”; and  The Eddie Testa Band did not disappoint.  The weather was again-perfect.   

This Saturday we have LITTLE by LITTLE- 5PM at Riley Park.  Join your neighbors, friends, and visitors and please pick up dinner boxes before or stop at one of our 25 restaurants!

On August 1st we had two big events on the Promenade- a Grateful Dead concert (real of Memorex?) and our annual National Night Out. 

The National Night Out is lead by our Bradley Beach Police Department.  It is a celebration of the partnership between the Community and the Police.  Our First Aid and Fire Team assisted; and we cooked hundreds of Hamburgers and Hot Dogs.  We also had an assortment of other foods, drinks, and prizes donated by our local restaurants and businesses.  Great evening!

Infrastructure project:  The Biase Center roof replacement:

The finishing “punch list” for the roof replacement is completing this week.

The roof was completely replaced.  We are focused on getting the mold remediation effort going.  This was necessary and long overdue! 

We will then move the Community Development (Zoning/ Code, etc.) and Meals on Wheels back into the building; and groups like the Seniors, Arts Council, and committees/ commissions will have access to the facility.

Fletcher Lake.  Our partners, Neptune Township (specifically Ocean Grove) started a project to repair the northeast bulkhead portion of Fletcher Lake.  Work began 4 weeks ago with good progress.  This is a key project in terms of the safety and stability of the bulkhead and contributes to our continued improvements to Fletcher Lake.  Thank you to the Neptune and the Fletcher Lake Team for advocating for this important project!

Our Shuttle Service in Bradley Beach-  F R E E!!

The Bradley Beach Pilot is up and running!  The Feel Good Shuttles group has reported a BIG uptick in Bradley Beach participation- GREAT!

This should complement the restaurant experience in Bradley Beach.

Restaurants have become a defining characteristic of our community.

A few other quick topics to highlight:

Those residents that had grass repaired by the borough due to the sewer, curb, and street corner repairs. P L E A S E water the areas so that they get established- THANKS!

Our Beach is one of our key assets in which we are the stewards.  There is a mutual dependency with our Tourism in Bradley Beach and our beach.  Our Lifeguards, First Aid, and Police all do a great job in managing the beach.  There has to be, however, a respect for the power and sometimes danger of the Atlantic Ocean.   I urge everyone to promote water safety.  Please swim when lifeguards are on duty!

We will continue to focus on Service and Progress as a Municipal Team.

That’s all for now!

We have a lot to be thankful for here in Bradley Beach, and much to celebrate.  

Thank you- and see you around town!

Mayor Larry Fox
