Avalon - Amen to a spout calling for review of building codes and variances. Avalon must take heed as it mimics Sea Isle with multi-family dwellings, reduced setbacks and increased height. Over-development is rampant; coupled with the elimination of indigenous trees, increase in impervious surfaces and building elevations, it is a recipe for disaster. Add a shortage of professional firefighters, use of plastic building materials and high winds to the mix and the result is fatalities and loss of property. Revised zoning codes and a construction moratorium is a prudent move in Avalon and Sea Isle City.
