Town Planning/Zoning Board Meeting Aug 12th at 7pm Monmouth Beach Culture Center, 128 Ocean Avenue. A proposal is before the Board requesting numerous variances to add a third floor to the Channel Club Catering Facility with an occupancy of up to 600 people and a NEW public restaurant for 160 people in addition to the rebuilt Sallie Tee’s for 229 people and the existing Marina Pool and Bar.

- Addition of outdoor space and windows that open at the catering facility
- More traffic through the neighborhood and parking demand beyond the capacity of the lot, Potential Ramifications to Monmouth Beach
- New traffic patterns, widening of streets, changes to street directions
- More street parking
- Increased noise that may travel across the water and travel farther because of the increased height
