Beach access ...I live in one of those beach towns. Beach access is a unfortunatley our only viable option. New Jersey doesn't allocate tax dollars to #1 clean and #2 fund the salaries of the lifeguards like other states! The so-called people from NJ made it so, not allowing this allocation to happen. Why should the beach towns have to foot the bill! Also beach access revenue stays on the beach! The beaches should be run by the county and have allocation of tax dollars to do so.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04462811560496625647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18532799296928641.post-16088234436679216132009-03-22T11:26:00.000-07:002009-03-22T11:26:00.000-07:00Hey There..yeah we have beaches less than 3 hours ...Hey There..yeah we have beaches less than 3 hours away, but unless you pay to park in a lot it takes you about an hour to find a place to park. We have lots and lots of beach-lovers here! It just takes time and money to do anything in SoCal.

I love the Jersey shore, have spent a lot of time in Sea Isle City and Avalon and have always thought the beach tags were about the lamest. On the other hand, the fudgie wudgie guy?

Just wanted to let you know (in an attempt to help you feel better) that the sales tax here in California is 7.75% and has been for several years!!!! Ain't that a kick in the butt? We don't like it, but that's life. Keep posting, your soapboxing is cute!!<BR/>Lynn in San DiegoAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17517417163414040941noreply@blogger.com
