Town Bank - Who is going to pay for the construction of the "raised walkway" along the bay? Who is going to pay for the maintenance of it? Weeding, sand, cracks in the concrete? The good old residents, who depend on the dunes to shelter our homes from the threat of the Delaware Bay in the event of a massive storm. Get ready for even higher property taxes folks, as if the countless overdeveloping of our town hasn't added enough strain. Let's put a walkway for people to leave dog poop and cigarette butts on, so we can have complaints like the North Wildwood residents do about the seawall. Makes sense.

Moderator's Note: 
According to a Herald article Jan. 27, "Ridgway said that this is a long-term plan that must begin with applying for grant money and that work on such a project, assuming the grant is awarded and council approves, will not be undertaken for quite some time."
