New Jersey has set aside $4 million in its recently enacted budget
for long-needed repairs to the Wildwood boardwalk.
But city officials say the walkway needs work that could cost $60
million.
Gov. Phil Murphy visited the walkway Sunday, pledging funds for
badly needed repairs. But Mayor Peter Byron says it could cost $60 million to
do all the work that's needed.
Wildwood officials have said the boardwalk needed to be redone
even before a 2020 storm damaged sections of it.
Murphy vetoed a $59 million earmark for the boardwalk in 2019.
