tourism would probably be an easier sell than million dollar condos...

I agree about the strong and consistant enforcement.
That's why it works in places like AC and Wildwood.
It's really just limited, morning hours. Maybe even push the noon limit back
to 11 am. I'd be totally for that, and that's what I do now anyway.

You keep saying that it is just a few people who do not ride responsibly.
This is not so. Over half of the bikes on the boardwalk are constantly
speeding and a disaster is just waiting to happen.

The minniture golf looks super nice. I like the waterfall action going

When I was on the boardwalk last night, I took notice of the AC unite on
the 5th ave pavilion. Assuming we are talking about the same one, it is by no

During the week, there is plenty of room for both pedestrians and responsible

We were on the 7th avenue beach watching over the top of Convention
Hall. We were absolutely amazed at how many people were on the north
side of CH. Five years ago there weren't as many on the entire
boardwalk for the fireworks.
And how great was the boardwalk all day yesterday. The kids wer
