• 13th New Jersey City Waives Permit Fees (thetruthaboutguns.com) — Beachwood is now among the New Jersey towns refunding their $150 share of concealed-carry permit fees, easing costs for local applicants. Alongside Toms River and several other municipalities statewide, Beachwood’s move aligns with a broader gun-rights campaign challenging New Jersey’s higher post-Bruen permit fees and encouraging residents to press more towns to follow suit.
