Reviewing Home Elevations on Oceanport Council Agenda
Oceanport officials are considering a zoning change for homes in flood-prone areas of the borough.
Authorizing the borough's planning board to review the elevation of homes affected by Superstorm Sandy is one of the items to be discussed at Thursday night's Oceanport Borough Council meeting.
The mayor and council will meet at Maple Place School at 7 p.m. while borough hall, which took on about four feet of water in the municipal courtroom during the storm, is restored.
The council will also make a recommendation to the planning board to amend borough zoning ordinances for elevation of homes.
