NJ Town Threatens Swimsuit Ban On Boardwalk… $2,000 Fine, 90 Days In Jail

ASBURY PARK, N.J. (CBSNewYork) – A former city councilwoman in Asbury Park is admonishing beachgoers to put on a shirt when they’re on the boardwalk.

Louise Murray says it’s the law.

A Monmouth County ordinance banning people from wearing bathing suits on the boardwalk was passed more than 40 years ago but has largely been forgotten. It says: “No person clad in bathing attire shall be on the boardwalk or the public sidewalks adjacent thereto.”
