To the Editor:
I own a home in Barnegat Light and am in favor of the idea of increasing the height of homes in our town to 32 feet for a number of reasons. I think it would be a logical and prudent way to manage the height level while maintaining Barnegat Light’s overall character.
Since Superstorm Sandy, and to my understanding, Long Beach Township and all towns on the Island have increased their height restrictions. Harvey Cedars changed its height level to 32 feet in the last few years.
