I believe the past practice of discounting beach fees for residents was challenged by the state Office of the Public Advocate, sometime in the late 1980s. I will have to double-check that but it happened about the same time that there was a successful suit blocking towns from selling male and female badges.

How about residents and homeowners
get on the beach free and everybody else pays?
This issue seems to come up in almost every beach town and for some reason the towns usually not only refuse to let local residents on the beach for free but refuse to offer a discount as well.
Belmar’s got an interesting offer for CURRENT members of the armed forces – they get on the beach for free but once they’re out of the service they have to pay!
You’d think it wouldn’t be so bad for towns to let the town residents on the beach for free considering our taxes are paying for the beach cleanup, security, badge checkers, lifeguards, etc.
