During Tuckerton borough’s March 6 council meeting, Councilman Brian Martin gave an update on Lanyard Lagoon.

According to Martin, the borough engineer submitted for the grant extension on December 1, 2022. “We just have not received that official extension back from the DEP.” Martin said the DEP reassured council that Tuckerton’s application is still in queue to be reviewed. Most importantly, aside from the extension, the county confirmed that the borough does qualify to receive the funding.
