Ocean County Board of Freeholders

Ocean County is expected to approve a historic $5.7 million purchase of 1,760 acres in Manchester and western Lacey Townships that will be preserved as open space, the Freeholder Board announced this week.

As promised, Harvey Cedars residents blanket the Ocean County Board of Freeholders meeting with orange t-shirts as they lobby en masse to get Long Beach Boulevard downsized from four lanes to three.

Twenty Ocean County Families are expected to get extra help in buying their first homes this year through a first-time homebuyers program.

With 2012 here, the Ocean County Freeholders will be awarding Gerry little the title of Director of the Board.
