Police patrols will be
increased in the coming weeks in Sea Isle City, as the city deals with issues
related to large crowds.
Businesses are also being
asked to limit the number of customers inside their stores. Condominium owners who've had
issues are urged to post "no trespassing" signs.
Mayor Leonard Desiderio says, in part, “I know folks are angry and
frustrated with some of the things that are going on, but we will manage this
and we will keep Sea Isle true to the vision we all have for our city … that it be the place where everybody wants to be."
The mayor did not cite specific problems or
say whether the incidents were criminal in nature. He also said he's designating the
entire length of beach entrances as part of the beach, which means the areas
will close at 10 p.m.
The Cape May County Sheriff's Department will also provide additional
officers for the remaining weekends of summer.
