Beach Haven Borough Council Special Meeting
The council held a special meeting to solicit community feedback on potential project applications for the Community Development Block Grant program. A significant portion of the discussion centered on the recent removal of a seating and viewing platform at the Chadsworth Avenue street end. Residents expressed a desire for a replacement structure that provides similar elevation and accessibility, which previously allowed for better bay viewing and recreational fishing and crabbing opportunities for elderly residents and children. Council members and residents discussed the challenges of meeting current ADA accessibility standards and the potential need for engineering input to develop a feasible solution.
