To the Editor:

This letter is in response to James Durkin’s letter (“Unkempt Bayfront,” 11/25). While I agree with Mr. Durkin that the sidewalks at the Taylor Avenue bayfront area could be swept off more often, I take umbrage with Mr. Durkin insinuating the Beach Haven Public Works Department doesn’t try to do the best job that it can to maintain the various borough facilities and infrastructure, and I am sure Mayor Davis will agree with me.

Three years ago the Taylor Avenue park was little more than orange gravel and sand with clumps of weeds growing in it.
