COURT HOUSE – Mayor Leonard Desiderio, of Sea Isle City, Mayor Richard Palombo, of Upper Township, and Mayor Jay Gillian, of Ocean City, announced May 9 that they will allow access to their beaches for exercise and active recreation.
According to a release, the mayors of the three municipalities have been coordinating with a Cape May County task force and other mayors on plans for a safe and gradual reopening of beaches, facilities, and businesses, as the state continues to take measures to slow the spread of COVID-19.
Local health professionals have advised that letting people exercise and enjoy outdoor spaces is safe and important for their physical and mental health, provided they avoid dense crowds and close contact with others.
Access to the beaches will be permitted for people engaged in activities such as walking, running, exercising, surfing and fishing. Sunbathing, sitting in chairs, groups of people, group sports and bathing will be prohibited.
