Several spots in NYC offer free wireless - most notably Bryant Park (http://www.bryantpark.org/amenities/wireless.php) and several places in Central Park(http://www.centralpark.com/pages/general-info/wireless-access-in-central-park.html). It really is a draw - LOTS of people with laptops both working and just surfing - now with iPhones, even more useful.

[AsburyPark] Re: What about WIFI on our boardwalk and beach?
I tried to get traction with this idea twice before. Once about one and a half years ago throgh the UEZ coordinator. My idea then was to coordinate with the Board of Education, the UEZ, the Chamber of Commerce, and Asbury Partners to fund a WiFI for the City as a whole. One, it would give school kids a free link to the outside world, and two, it would have provided a great publicity link to both the downtown and the boardwalk areas. Nothing was done. Lastly, I talked to Gary Motolla about one year ago about this idea, and he did not show any interest indicating problems with the technology.

I would've never thought about this until i got an iPhone. It's probably the most amazing device i've ever played with. I love it. But, I don't seem to get 3G very well in AP. It's kinda intermittent. But, if I was at the beach with WIFI, no problem. I truly have the feeling that people would love this, and it would be a great selling point.

About the size of that useless extra lane on ocean ave. The tram wouldnt have to run ON the boardwalk, just near it... bump those angled parking lanes out 8 feet and move that lane all the way to the east of ocean ave, and there is your tram car lane.

[AsburyPark] Re: What about WIFI on our boardwalk and beach?
- The simpliest approach would be thorugh a couple wireless router around a couple of the buildings.aka America's cup or your neighbors internet. Get Cablevision or someone else to sponsor it or provide it but make people pay a nominal fee - or make it free with a seasonal beach pass. Better yet, make it wi-fi free no connection to the outside world. You're on the beach with your kids, boy or girlfriend etc etc - or you're by yourself and want it that wayI dropped my phone in some water on Saturday. Just got a new one tonight. I made it up to N Jersey and back today since 6 am - no phone, my ezpass on my car is broken and I used a pay phone twice. It cost $1.55 to call from Ft. Lee to Asbury. So I played cheap and only made 2 calls. A real peaceful day and I know my mailbox is full. If need it that bad - get a vz card for your pc or subscribe your phone to a service But it would be nice - once in a while Yahoo!

Taking the oceanfront off the table, is there a viable way to plug up those fiscal gaps through mixed use development along Main, Asbury and Springwood? The assessment of commercial property in AP is generally lower than it is (relatively) for residences. That needs to be revisited. There is also the issue of the taxation of MM's property on the BW, but that will also have a long-term tax abatement. AP needs to develop more commercial uses. It needs to collect sales taxes and most of all, dead wood needs to be cut from city payrolls. I heard a rumor that we will have a similar deficit next year and that the state is not going to pony up the whole thing again. We might be several millions of dollars short. Couple that with a revaluation and you can see where residential real estate taxes are heading. The new condos, despite having abatements, are getting clobbered by taxes. Yahoo!
