Plan will be in effect from 12:30 to 4 a.m. during summer in sections of Districts 3 and 4
A revised overnight, summer parking plan for sections of Districts 3 and 4 was approved 4 to 3 by Point Beach Council on Tuesday night.

"It was an honest mistake, I didn't know about the parking plan," he told the mayor and council at Tuesday night's meeting at Borough Hall. "I don't have a problem paying it, but I oppose a mandatory court appearance for this. It's a parking ticket!" "You were talking before about negative publicity," Gualtieri told them. "This is why some of it exists."
