Limited-Time Parking Could Come to Ocean Grove

Ocean Grove could see time-limited parking for four months starting Tuesday, May 15.

The Neptune Township Committee plans to introduce at its May 14 meeting an ordinance that would limit parking time on Main Avenue between Central and New York avenues to 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., May 15 through Sept. 15.

It was not known how the parking would be enforced.

Main Avenue is at the north end of Ocean Grove, the township's square-mile historic district. North-end residents have in the past asked officials to restrict parking to residents only. They alleged an influx of visitors park cars in Ocean Grove free of charge in order to visit adjacent Asbury Park, which has metered parking on the streets as well as municipal pay-parking lots.

The committee will discuss the proposed ordinance during a workshop meeting slated to start at 6 p.m. in the municipal building, 25 Neptune Blvd. The ordinance will be introduced and read during the regular meeting, which will begin at 7 p.m.
