Pat Storino, Jenkinson's owner, speaks at Point Beach GOP Club
Midnight bar closings would force Jenkinson's Boardwalk to lay off 50 of its 200 full-time, year-round workers, Pat Storino told the Point Beach GOP organization at the Woman's Club on St. Louis Avenue on Thursday night. "People have told me I should lay off the Point Pleasant Beach residents first, so they can picket," Storino said, adding, laughing, "So I may have to lay off my own kids." Layoffs would be one of the effects of a local ordinance adopted on May 15 that would compel all bars in Point Beach to stop serving alcohol at midnight, said Storino, who has owned Jenkinson's since 1977. That ordinance will be put to its first test today when the state Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) is expected to decide whether to "stay…

But that won't happen without boardwalk businesses agreeing
The Point Beach Mayor and Council voted narrowly on Tuesday night for bars to stop serving alcohol at 1 a.m. However, that won't happen without agreement from boardwalk businesses which are appealing the council's May 15 vote to stop serving alcohol at midnight. Ed McGlynn, an attorney representing Jenkinson's Boardwalk, said after the vote that he and other boardwalk business representatives have not yet decided if they will agree with a 1 a.m. closing and they will not be releasing any information Tuesday. The vote is an offer of a "compromise," according to the mayor and councilmembers who voted in favor of the 1 a.m. closing time. Councilmembers Michael Corbally, Bret Gordon, Kristine Tooker and Mayor Vincent Barrella (who broke a tie…

UPDATE: Council votes for preliminary approval for second ordinance giving bars the option to pay fees to stay open until 2 a.m.
Point Beach council voted on Tuesday night for bars to close at midnight, two hours earlier than the current 2 a.m. closing time. Councilmembers Kristine Tooker, Bret Gordon and Michael Corbally voted for the earlier bar closing, while Councilmembers William Mayer, Tim Lurie and Stephen Reid voted against it. That left Mayor Vincent Barrella to break the tie, and he voted yes. The ordinance goes into effect on July 1. The council also voted for preliminary approval for a second ordinance giving bars the option to pay fees to stay open until 2 a.m., which is the current closing time. However, councilmembers agreed to postpone the deadline for bars to request a later closing time from the town. That deadline had been May 24 but was moved to …

Ordinances calling for earlier bar closings or payments are on Tuesday night Point Beach Council agenda
Point Beach Council member Kristine Tooker says Councilman William Mayer never came to her with a financial offer from the boardwalk and that he should not be saying she "rejected" one. Mayer says Tooker is wrong, that he did ask her whether she approves of a boardwalk offer of $140,000 that he describes as the boardwalk's "alternative" to ordinances calling for either earlier bar closings or payments to stay open later, as well as the removal of a separate ordinance restricting parking in the boardwalk bars' District 4. And so goes just one of many disagreements regarding the failed "negotiations" between the town and Jenkinson's Boardwalk and Martell's Tiki Bar. There is not even agreement that they were "negotiations." "They were not '…

Mayor says plan might be expanded into District 3
Parking on residential streets in District 4 will soon be off limits during the summer overnight hours except for taxpayers, now that a new parking plan has been narrowly passed by Point Beach Council at Tuesday night's meeting at Borough Hall. The plan does not allow parking on residential streets in District 4 from midnight to 6 a.m. except for taxpayers, or those they share with, who have parking placards from the town, from the Monday before Memorial Day to the Monday after Labor Day, said Councilman Michael Corbally, who had initially proposed the plan. District 4's boundaries are the ocean on the east, the New Jersey Transit Railroad Tracks on the west, the Manasquan River and Inlet on the north and the north side of Arnold Avenue on…

Text of proposal for bars to close earlier or help town pay for police
Point Beach Councilman Michael Corbally on Wednesday afternoon released the statement he read at Tuesday night's council meeting regarding a proposal for bar owners to close earlier or help the town pay for police services. Below (in italics) is the full text of his statement. The measure, to authorize Beach Attorney Sean Gertner to research the matter, as well as another alternative, regarding liquor licenses, and draft a proposed ordinance, passed at the meeting at Borough Hall, but Councilmen Tim Lurie and Stephen Reid voted no. After the meeting, Councilman William Mayer said that he did not support requiring all bars to either close at midnight or pay a fee based on occupancy to remain open until 2 a.m. He said he voted yes because …
Proposal may call for earlier closing for bars that don't help pay for police services
Bars may have to choose between closing earlier and ponying up to help pay for police if a proposal is passed into law by Point Beach council. A majority of council members voted on Tuesday night at Borough Hall to authorize borough Attorney Sean Gertner to draft an ordinance requiring all establishments in Point Beach with consumption liquor licenses to help pay for police if they want to stay open past midnight. Councilman Michael Corbally made the motion for the proposal at the meeting, including reading from a written version he had prepared. Councilman William Mayer said to him, "This is the first I'm hearing of this. Did our borough attorney see this?" "Briefly," Corbally replied. Mayer said after the meeting that he did not support …
