Council adopted Ordinance 2026-20 to replace sanitary sewer infrastructure along Randall Avenue, appropriating $1.7 million and authorizing bonds or notes; council discussed county reimbursement for certain pipe and valve work and confirmed IBank funding provides a low interest rate for the project.

Council and residents spar over county involvement in bringing Seastreak ferry service back to Point Pleasant Beach. Some council members urged a pilot arranged with county support; others criticized private county talks and insisted the ferry follow local permitting and land‑use procedures.

A heated public-comment period and council debate focused on a proposed SeaStreak ferry landing ("C Street"). Residents called it a missed economic opportunity; council members and staff said the operator failed to file required permits and that zoning and coastal approvals are required.

At a June courtesy review, Verizon’s experts told the Point Pleasant Beach Planning Board that a proposed 170‑foot monopole at 416 New Jersey Ave would replace antennas on the municipal water tank, restore and improve wireless coverage and meet FCC exposure limits; residents raised concerns about visual impact, maintenance and lease terms.

After hours of public comment and debate, the Point Pleasant Beach Mayor and Council failed to adopt Ordinance 2026-18, which would have regulated ferry commutation services in the borough; the measure failed 3–2 after the council removed a temporary-license provision at the Planning Board's suggestion.

After extensive public comment about safety, parking and notice, Point Pleasant Beach's planning board recommended that the governing body treat ferry/commutation service as a permitted use in the Marine Commercial zone but advised the council not to adopt the ordinance's temporary-licensing and process language as written, and requested site-plan, sunset and monitoring safeguards.
