Madison 1st Selectman Issues Update On Beach Parking System

MADISON, CT - In advance of the coming weekend, Madison First Selectman Tom Banisch is updating everyone on the town’s new beach parking system.

Here is what Banisch is saying:

“This update is to let you know that things are moving along as we told you in Mid-May. The software for the new parking system is being installed today and staff will be trained by early next week.

“Scot Erskine, Director of Beach & Rec will be posting a detailed description of the process for getting your Beach Parking Pass tomorrow. Beach Parking Passes will go on sale on-line tomorrow and the system will be up and running by mid-next week.

“This weekend we will continue to operate as we have from the beginning of this season with Gate Guards in place to check for last year’s sticker or your hanging pass. As we have been doing since the beginning of this season, we will issue temporary passes to residents with ID and proof of taxpayer status until next week.

“We anticipate that by Thursday of next week, the signs will be installed informing beach goers how to buy their parking and our monitors will be patrolling the lots to enforce our new parking system.”
