as a taxpayer in Margate, i believe i (& other taxpayers) should get free beach badge(s)- according to the # of residents residing.
an additional form of taxation…….
So if all residents get free beach badges, then they will just raise everyone’s taxes to compensate for those lost fees. It’s not really that hard to understand, one way or another you’ll be paying for it. Is it REALLY that much of a hardship to pay discounted pre-season rates?
Here, this may add some perspective. Rates are way higher fir beach badges in many other beach towns. https://www.jerseyfamilyfun.com/new-jersey-beaches/
So where does this money go? Stop trying to fool the residents
Are there daily rates? These rates must be weekly/seasonal? Cape May charges an $8 daily rate.
