Margate residents have been asking…. why can’t they watch Commission and Planning Board meetings online?
Why does Margate Mayor Michael Collins block online ZOOM video access to meetings?
Take a look at how Atlantic City does it:

You can watch all AC public meetings online…. LIVE or at a later date.
Excellent audio and video quality too. AC even allows remote public comment.
So the question is…. why is Atlantic City more transparent than Margate?
Summary:
- CRDA – no live video streaming or archive of mtgs.
- Ventnor – no live video stream of Planning Board mtgs
- Margate – no live video stream of Commission or Planning mtgs.
- Longport – no live video stream of Commission or Planning mtgs.

This is not a cost or tech issue. This is purely a way to keep taxpayers in the dark, especially those that pay the most taxes and can’t vote; the second homeowners.
The Baglivo Margate Apartment project is just one more example of substantial alleged, municipal malfeasance, or worse.
COMMENT: Mismanagement of taxpayer dollars and zoning / planning law, has a direct effect on your Downbeach Real Estate investment.
Time to turn the cameras on, Ventnor Mayor Landgraf, Margate Mayor Collins and Longport Mayor Russo.
Stop disrespecting your biggest group of taxpayers.
