CAPE MAY – A new executive order from Cape May City Manager Jerry Inderwies Jr. is continuing the city’s efforts to reopen its tourist-dependent economy for summer.
The order begins a gradual easing of restrictions on transient, seasonal and short-term rentals. Its proposed schedule is in line with the proposed plan for reopening the county submitted to Gov. Phil Murphy May 5. Cape May businesses and property owners may engage in rentals of 30 days or more beginning May 11. Rentals for less than 30 days will be allowed beginning June 1.
The order stipulates that the city’s hotels and motels may operate at no more than 60% capacity from June 1-21. Starting June 22, the establishments can move to full capacity.
The order doesn’t mention additional social distancing constraints or other protocols, other than the limits on capacity.
The plan submitted to the governor by the freeholders contains lodging-industry-provided mitigation protocols that the Cape May order does not reference, but which the county plan says would be “universally followed.”
