Seaside Heights officials this week clarified the wording of an ordinance aimed at keeping the peace during summer weekends and limiting construction traffic during the busiest times of the week in town.<\/p>\n

First adopted in July, the borough council passed an ordinance to codify the hours during which construction projects can be performed in the borough. The action came after concerns raised by residents over the sheer number of building projects occurring simultaneously, especially during the busy summer season and on weekends when the town tends to have more activity year-round.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re limiting it because we\u2019ve heard concerns from the public,\u201d said Mayor Anthony Vaz. \u201cIt will be a year-round [policy]. No Sundays, and half-a-day on Saturdays.\u201d<\/p>\n

This week\u2019s amendment to the ordinance, passed unanimously, clarifies the language of the construction prohibition to cover federal holidays.<\/p>\n

The ordinance permits construction between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturdays, with no construction being permitted on Sundays. Federal holidays, which often fall on Mondays, were added this week. The ordinance is not aimed at stopping routine do-it-yourself projects around one\u2019s home, but rather new construction and heavy renovations that require work crews and large pieces of power equipment.<\/p>\n

\u201cKenny [Roberts], our code enforcement officer, recommended this based on complaints he\u2019s received about construction in the early-morning hours and on weekends,\u201d said Borough Administrator Christopher Vaz.<\/p>\n
