During a recent meeting, discussions centered on amending the residency preference to include not just local Belmar residents but also those from Mammoth, Mercer, and Ocean counties. This move aims to align with constitutional mandates for affordable housing while also making the Housing Authority eligible for funding through the Borough’s affordable housing trust fund.

Overview: The Belmar Housing Authority meeting resulted in the approval of two resolutions aimed at reducing costs and improving local housing infrastructure. The first resolution authorized the re-tendering of building S repairs with revised specifications expected to be more cost-effective.

The discussions also included the status of ongoing projects, such as the near completion of an elevator upgrade and the occupancy of all housing units.

Overview: The Belmar Housing Authority convened to address multiple issues, with the most pressing topic being the receipt of bids for facade repair, as the range of proposed costs from various construction companies varied widely, from $467,000 to $1,600,000.
