Fire officials and city leaders in Atlantic City are looking for ways to curb recent fires at homeless encampments. There have been a string of them recently, including one that killed a homeless man. The Press of Atlantic City reports Boardwalk Committee Chair Tom Lamaine said during a Friday meeting, “It’s not illegal to be homeless, but it is illegal to start fires under the Boardwalk.” The fires have been happening as the city is embarking on a $26 million repair and rebuilding program for the aged structure, which runs about five miles from Gardner’s Basin to the border with Ventnor.
