Nor does it change the policy offering free daily badges to any veteran of the U.S. armed forces.<\/p>\n<p>The ordinance is subject to a public hearing and second vote before adoption. The hearing and vote are scheduled for the Dec. 29 council meeting, which will be held at 10 a.m. at the township\u2019s municipal complex.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fcbkbttn_buttons_block\" id=\"fcbkbttn_left\"><div class=\"fb-share-button fcbkbttn_large_button \" data-href=\"https:\/\/shorebeat.com\/brick\/2023\/12\/brick-council-introduces-reduced-daily-senior-parking-fees-at-beaches-eliminates-seasonal-discount\/\" data-type=\"button_count\" data-size=\"large\"><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Brick Township council on Tuesday night introduced an ordinance that would lower the cost of a daily parking pass at the township\u2019s two ocean beach parking lots while eliminating discounts for seasonal parking passes.
