This week, Stone Harbor Borough Council heard a presentation from Administrator Manny Parada on parking options as officials seek to avoid a replay of last summer in 2024. Stone Harbor charges for parking in and around its business district from May 1 through Oct. 1. The Cape May County Herald reports According to Parada, the change in parking management strategy began with the increasing number of problems emanating from the meter and kiosk system. Maintenance issues with the kiosks in particular led to rising costs for the Public Works budget and caused problems for those who parked in areas of the business district. Parada pointed to the added costs to the borough caused by the added tickets, noting that the borough took the step of adding a part-time clerk to the municipal court to handle the large increase in court activity.
