(ATTACHMENT CORRECTION) Harvey Cedars July News

Borough of Harvey Cedars, Ocean County, NJ July 2022 Hometown News *Department of Public Works & Public Property - Commissioner/Mayor Jonathan Oldham* The fourth of July is here, and summer has begun! Public works is almost caught up with all the things we need to accomplish for the summer. There are new plantings at the Borough Hall and at the Harvey Cedars sign by Salem Avenue. I want to thank the taxpayers and the planting committee for helping make this happen. The Public Works team has all of the beach mats out and in place. As you know there is not much beach left on Middlesex Avenue. I have spoken with Jeff Van Drew and with Cory Booker’s Chief of Staff about the need to have the refurbishment of the beaches of LBI in the 2023 budget. If you have contact with our Senators and Congressmen, please reach out to them concerning our needs. Looking forward, most of our time will be spent on maintaining the beach. We rake the beach every other day, pick up trash, and fix walkovers after rainstorms constantly. We currently have a project at the Borough Hall including several repairs to the aging trim which will be replaced with Azack, a plastic wood. We are also in the process of getting approval on a new well to be located at 76th Street. We continue to go over our diversion permit, and the amount of water we are allowed to pump out of the ground in any given month, as a result, the state of New Jersey is forcing us to put in an additional water well so they can monitor the water table. There will be more information about this as this project progresses. I hope everyone has a safe fourth of July. *Department of Revenue & Finance – Commissioner Paul Rice* Thank you to all the residents that came out to the Block Party and supported the Fire Company. The Annual Dog Day Road Race is back!! If you are interested in running or becoming a sponsor please visit Dog Day Race <http://www.dogdayrace.com/>. As you may be aware, some changes are being made to the pickleball fees. Beginning July 21st the fee for non-residents will be increasing to $100. The fee for Harvey Cedars residents will remain a seasonal beach badge. All players will be required to have a Pickleball ID. In order to make the transition smoother, we are going to start making IDs for residents only on July 5th. If you would like to play Pickleball please stop by Borough Hall Monday- Friday between 8:30 AM-4:00 PM with your regular seasonal beach badge and a photo ID. Our staff will verify your Harvey Cedars address and make your Pickleball ID. For information about obtaining an ID on the weekend please contact Borough Hall during normal business hours. New tax bills will be sent out as soon as the rates are certified by Ocean County. If the bills will be mailed late, the grace period will be extended accordingly. July brings the start of the events sponsored by the Harvey Cedars Activity Committee! On July 2nd check out Craft Day by the Bay in Sunset Park. There will be something for everyone. Summer concerts begin July 13th with The Impulsives from 6-8 PM. Our full event schedule can be found here <http://www.harveycedars.org/documents/2022%20Calendar%20of%20Events(1).pdf>. If you're looking for a new HC t-shirt, a new design is now available for sale in Borough Hall! All proceeds go to supporting the events sponsored by the HCAC. *Department of Public Safety & Public Affairs – Commissioner/Deputy Mayor John M. Imperiale* Happy 4th of July to all, and have a safe and enjoyable summer! With the 4th of July weekend coming up, please be aware that illegal fireworks will not be tolerated. A notice stating such will be on the boulevard signboard and posted on our social media platforms. Please see the poster at the bottom of page regarding new Jersey laws pertaining to fireworks. The Harvey Cedars Police Department will be hosting Coffee with a Cop. The first will be at Birdy’s Café on Saturday, July 2nd, 8:00 am-10:00 am, Neptune Market on Friday, July 22nd, 8:00 am-10:00 am, and then at Agnello’s by the Cove on Friday, August 19th, 8:00 am-10:00 am. I encourage every resident to stop by and meet our dedicated officers. The HCPD Community Forums continued in June with Officers Ben Mrozinski and Matthew MacCorkle presenting “Officers on Patrol” and Traffic, Pedestrian, and Bike Safety. I want to thank the Officers for a great job, as they were extremely informative and their dedication and professionalism were clearly demonstrated. Chief Burnaford also went over the department’s Organization Chart again and led a spirited question and answer session. Thanks to everyone who attended, and to those who sent myself and the Chief some extremely positive notes and emails afterward. The HCPD Community Forums will pick up again on Wednesday, September 28th at 5:00 pm. Sergeant Steve Frazee and Officer Dan Grundtisch will be presenting: Officer Training, Firearms, and SWAT. Mark your calendar for another excellent HCPD Community Forum. Our Seasonal Officer, Danielle Bialecki has been on patrol, including biking the boulevard, side streets and patrolling the beaches. Please remember to bike with traffic, walk and run against traffic, and observe all traffic regulations, including the Safe Passing Law (move over one lane for pedestrians or bikers, when possible, and slow down to 25 MPH if you cannot move over) and remember to stop for pedestrians at all street corners. Traffic, bike, and pedestrian activity is at its height now, so please all be safe and observe all regulations. Our HC Beach Patrol is fully staffed for July, thanks to great off-season recruitment and retention work put in by our Chief of Beach Operations Randy Townsend. Speaking of which, Congratulations are in order for Lifeguard Chief Townsend, his management team, and all of the HC Lifeguards, as the HC Beach Patrol was just once again fully accredited, after a thorough observation, by the Ocean Lifesaving Association (OLA). To quote the “Beach Visitation - Observation” report submitted by OLA: The Harvey Cedars Beach Patrol is a “very good operation - always progressive and constantly striving to improve their operation. Lifeguard Chief Townsend does a terrific job!” And furthermore, for your information (and some hometown pride!) the Harvey Cedars Beach Patrol is the ONLY agency on LBI that is accredited by two different certifying bodies: the Ocean Lifesaving Association (OLA) and the US Lifeguard Association (USLA). Congratulations again to Chief Townsend for this well-deserved accomplishment. *Please see the attached PDF below for 2022 NJ Legal Fireworks!* *In Other News!!!* The Long Beach Island Health Department would like to remind all of our residents that free blood pressure screenings are available without the need for an appointment. Please see the attached PDF below for locations and screening times.
