Wildwood's mayor's planning to sell the back-bay property, which is about 35 acres, to an undisclosed, no bid purchaser for a little over $1 million, is a crime. It does not even remotely pass the smell test. The mayor's behavior indicates he's desperate for money. An asset like the back bay is worth 10 times that amount. Without transparency, mayor, the optics of this shady, inside deal are bad.
