Funding Denial Ominous-

(From Page 1) threatened integrity of the entire bulknead was perhaps overstated, "no one can predict accurately when or how the existing properties at 121st St. may be threatened. If a real threat to those properties develops in the future, it may than be appropriate to consider a bulkhead return." THE BULKHEAD reconstruction project, estimated to cost over $400,000, would include the installation of 12,000 cubic ft. of fill behind the bulkhead return (the end of the structure where it goes perpendicular to the surf). The borough has been anxious to secure the area from further erosion for several years with an eye toward developing the area between 121st and 127th Sts. 122nd St. is the last improved block between existing residential development and what environmentalists consider the entrance to the Stone Harbor Point area, the borough Board Resigns WILDWOOD - With last week’s resignations of all nine members of the Wildwood Parking Authority — those responsible for the administration of Convention Hall — the way has been cleared for the creation of a regional board that will administer the authority and hall and analyze proposals to expand hall facilities to allow for larger conventions. The new nine-member board will reportedly consist of five previous Authority members and two representatives from both North Wildwood and Wildwood Crest. In addition to providing for the regionalized board, the voluntary resignations also guaranteed that revenue needed now to keep Convention Hall open will be available. City.Commissioners had previously incorporated the receipt of the resignations into an agreement providing a higher debt ceiling for the facility.

Zoning Board.

Ocean City adopted the mayor-council form of government in 1978. According to city clerk Loretta Marshall, non-partisan city elections are held here every two years. Council representatives from the city’s four wards will be selected during the

next election in 1984.

Primary Contests Are Few

continues to contend that it has no desire to develop any area south of 127th St. In fact, the borough doesn't consider Stone Harbor Point to even begin until beyond 127th St. OF THE SEVEN criteria that have to be met in order for a project to receive state funding, only the fact that the bulkhead is existing structure under the state Shore Protection Master Plan would make it eligible for funding. / In his analysis, Mr. Kinsey found that six Conditions under the Rules on Coastal Resource and Development Policies weren’t met because the bulkhead’s reconstruction: —would provide erosion protection for development, which would be both unacceptable and in conflict with state policies; —wouldn’t improve sand supply (but the state found such littoral drift would be enhanced by reducing the lengths of existing groins at 122nd and 127th Sts.); —would create an erosion problem along The Point; —would have an adverse impact on marine resources in the tidal flat, behind the bulkhead, which would be filled in; —would be contrary to policy against filling in an ocean area; —would require extensive maintenance or otherwise result in an expected project life span shorter than the required 50 years. Jersey Could (From Pagel) speakers acknowledged that’s something New Jersey definitely lacks. According to Kenneth Scholl, executive of Holiday Inn/Harrahs, “unless you invite visitors thru public relations and advertising, they’re not going to come.” He noted that the 176 page Automobile Association (AAA) manual for the New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York area delegates only 40 pages to the Garden State. He also noted that his review of the New York Times Travel Section — where he said, the state should be advertising 52 weeks of the year — contained nothing but an ad for Caesars casino in Atlantic City. •'ALL AND ALL it’s (New Jersey) one of the best kept secrets around," Mr. Scholl

said.

Mr. Michaud agreed. "Newark and Atlantic City are what I think of when I

think of New Jersey.”

While it was emphasized that awareness of the role hospitality and promotion play in the success of tourism is necessary, it was also stressed such understanding is useless if the basics aren’t fifacticed. "You are the ambassadors to the state,” Mr. Scholl emphasized. "You must take an active role. It’s the only way."

(From Pagel) Incumbent Committeeman Jack Moran is squaring off against local organization backed newcomer Bill Hevener. Moran — along with a full slate of 28 district committee candidates — is attempting to grasp power from the existing organization currently under the leadership of Maurice Catarcio. The lone Democrat to meet the April 29 primary filing deadline is Robert R. Fothergill of Erma — owner/president of Anchor Insurance in Rio Grande. AI.SO FILED — although not on the primary ballot — is Joseph Link of Town Bank. One of the more vocal members of the Township Taxpayers Assn., Mr. Link is a strong advocate for a local charter change and will be on the November ballot as an independent candidate. In Middle Township, there are two Democrats seeking the nomination for a three-year Township Committee seat: John McMahon of Avalon Realty, and Charles Leusner, a business teacher at Middle Twp. High School. On the Republican ticket is William Deaver, county purchasing agent. In Upper Township, the primary battle is in the GOP. Here newcomer John McDonough — endorsed by the Township Republican Organization — is vying with the party’s alternate leader, Ruth Millward for a three-year term on Township Committee. Millward entered the race after Mayor Frank Kruk announced he will not seek re-election. THE ONLY DEMOCRAT to file here is Thomas C. Bonner. He — along with Independent candidate Fredrick M. Armand — will face the winner of the GOP battle in November. In North Wildwood, voters will select candidates for first and second ward councilmen. No Democrat filed for the First Ward.
