Beach replenishment at the north end of Ocean City in spring 2013.
The following is Ocean City Mayor Jay Gillian’s weekly update to citizens posted on Friday, Feb. 6.
Dear Friends:
A few brief project updates:
  • Back Bay  / Lagoon Dredging:  We are currently out to bid to remove material from CDF 83 so that dredging can begin on July 1, 2015.
  • Bay Avenue – 6th to 18th Streets (County Project):  Concrete and drainage work is complete.  Remaining paving will be undertaken when weather permits.
  • North End Paving / Drainage: West Station Rd., Sindia Rd. Warwick Road, Haven Ave., North Street, First St. and adjacent alleys:  Concrete work currently under construction.  Paving to follow.
  • Boardwalk Replacement Project – Phase 2: Nearing completion.  Railing currently being reinstalled.  Should be open within two weeks weather permitting.
  • North End Pump Station and Paving: Awaiting permits.
This week we established a web page for updates on the south end beach replenishment project.  You can view this information at: www.ocnj.us/beachfill.
The administration is finalizing our recommended 2015 operating budget.  I will be presenting the budget  to the City Council at their meeting on February 12, 2015.
Have a great weekend!
Warm regards,
Jay A. Gillian
Mayor
