POLL: Should The Belmar Beach Area Be Smoke-Free?

Please vote in our poll

The beach may be going smoke-free this summer. Mayor Matt Doherty said at the Borough Council meeting on March 4 that the council will vote on a resolution to ban smoking along the boardwalk and on the beach at its next meeting on March 18, according The Asbury Press.

Currently, the borough has several small smoking zones near the boardwalk, but the council will move to eliminate those in an effort to make the borough’s shoreline more family-friendly, according The Asbury Park Press.
