POINT PLEASANT, NJ— Welcome to the July 5 edition of Monday Manual. Yes, we know it's Tuesday, but here is what the holiday-shortened week has in store in the Point Pleasant and Point Pleasant Beach area.
The Point Pleasant Beach Borough Council is set to meet Tuesday night and among the items on the agenda is the public hearing on an ordinance that will repeal the borough's plan to take over the Amethyst Beach Motel by eminent domain.
The motel, which is adjacent to the municipal parking lot on Arnold Avenue, has been fighting the borough's plan since the ordinance to take it over was first introduced in March 2021.
