Also on the agenda will be a core group members of the newly formed Save Asbury’s Waterfront Committee, a coalition of Asbury Park residents and non-profit organizations that seek to foster and encourage appropriate development along Asbury Park’s waterfront to maximize social inclusion, access and encourage an open and participatory planning process.
