Pledge Summary

Point Pleasant Beach is a coastal community with a strong focus on environmental stewardship. We have worked with our own Environmental and Shade Tree Commissions and our Green Team to revitalize borough-owned land into pollinator gardens, preserve open space with native species, and work with third-parties such as the state DOT to install pollinator rain gardens. We will continue to work to preserve pollinator habitats and sustainable green infrastructure where feasible.
