From Mayor Leonard Desiderio...
Amid the cold winter weather we have been experiencing, here is a thought I hope will warm your heart: “Summer will be here before we know it!”
Realizing that many of us are looking forward to the approaching summer season and spending leisurely time on the beach, we have begun to sell 2021 seasonal beach tags, which are now available at the pre-season rate of $20 each. Beach tags are on sale at the Welcome Center and at our Beach Tag Vending Machine in the lobby of City Hall, and you can learn more about Sea Isle City’s beach tags by visiting our website, www.seaislecitynj.us, by phoning the Welcome Center at 609-263-8687, or by reading the special “Beach Tag” section of this newsletter.

The Mayor also stated that Cape May County officials are doing all they can to expedite the vaccination process, and they will continue to work with State and Federal agencies to keep the vaccine program moving forward.
Three new ordinances were introduced during the January 26 meeting. READ MORE
