Cape May County is the second least populated of the 21 counties in the State of New Jersey but the fourteenth largest county in square miles. The county mostly lies on a flat and costal peninsula which extends into the Delaware Bay. The lowest point in Cape May County is sea level, whereas the highest point can be found in three separate areas of the Belleplain State Forrest. 1 2010 U.S Census Housing Density2 Housing Density Housing Units Per Place %Change 2000-10 Square Miles (2010) Cape May County 391 9.6 SJ 7 County Avg.* 329.1 7.8 New Jersey 483.2 7.3 * The South Jersey Region includes Atlantic, Burlington, Camden, Cape May, Cumberland, Gloucester and Salem counties.

In addition, most of these services are limited to the daytime hours during weekdays only. However, the flexible fixed route and demand responsive services that are currently operated by the various providers represent a relatively large transportation system. A total demand response service network of 144 vehicles offers approximately 124,000 vehicle hours and provides 240,000 passenger trips annually.3 New Jersey Transit Fixed Route Services4 Route # From To Communities Served 313 Philadelphia Cape May Cape May Court House, N.

  • Diamonds in the Sand
    I was hooked. A real treasure hunt. Following his directions, I made my way to the gift shops at Sunset Beach to learn more about the Cape May diamonds. There, I found faceted and mounted gems and books, including The Legend of the Cape May Diamond, by award- winning writer Trinka Hakes Noble. Just like real diamonds To the naked eye viewing a polished and faceted Cape May diamond, there is no distinguishable difference between it and a real diamond. Until modern gem scanning equipment was developed, they were passed along by unscrupulous vendors as genuine diamonds. As closely as I examined the stones, I could not tell the difference either. They sparkle as brilliantly as any engagement ring, but sadly, unlike true diamonds, have no substantial value. According to legend and local history, Cape May diamonds are pure quartz crystal, and look like clear pebbles along the beach. When wet, they are translucent in hues of white, beige and rose, polished smooth by the ocean waves and sand. Often mistaken for river-smoothed glass from New Jersey’s once-thriving glass manufacturing industry, BY LINDA BARRETT geologists claim the crystals are local in origin, washing out of nearby Pleistocene gravel deposits. They register an eight on the hardness scale. Claims are their source is over 200 miles away, in the upper reaches of the Delaware River. “The Cape May diamonds are the daughters of the river, linking the state’s past and present. These Diamonds in the Sand fragments of quartz rock have hidden in the river, plucked away from the Cape May Diamonds Dazzle Visitors mountains lining its banks,” says author Noble.

  • Cape May County Tourism Conference
    2013 Cape May County Tourism Conference Developing a Game Plan – Lessons Learned from Sandy Presented by Cape May County Board of Chosen Freeholders Gerald M. Thornton, Director Leonard C. Desiderio, Vice Director Kristine Gabor Will Morey Cape May County Department of Tourism E. Marie Hayes Diane F. Wieland, Director [email protected] April 25, 2013 0 Developing a game plan – Lessons learned from Sandy 2012 represents 18 straight years of tourism growth for Cape May County Jersey Strong - For many who were left to clean up the mess left by Superstorm Sandy, the event will become a benchmark for telling time – What happened before Sandy and what happened after Sandy. Reports of changes in the landscape of the Jersey Shore were predicted and as we all move forward we will see some subtle – and many major – differences along the New Jersey coastline. Change for whatever reason is usually good and often unplanned. In the end, the four counties that make up the 127 miles of New Jersey coast and generate $19 Billion in expenditures will be a better place to live and visit. The more noticeable and tangible landscape changes will be north of Atlantic County but new regulations; mandated changes in building codes and revised FEMA flood maps will make a difference in the southern coastal towns as well. The looming changes will have its greatest impact on the real estate market that was beginning to show some positive movement after the recession. Cape May County dodged the bullet, this time. The next storm of the century could be just around the corner.

  • Millville City
    Government That Works! NEW JERSEY DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY LOCAL GOVERNMENT BUDGET REVIEW MILLVILLE BOARD OF EDUCATION CHRISTINE TODD WHITMAN Governor ROLAND M. MACHOLD State Treasurer AUGUST, 2000 GOVERNMENT THAT WORKS OPPORTUNITIES FOR CHANGE The Report of the Millville Board of Education New Jerseyans deserve the best government their tax dollars can provide. Governor Whitman is committed to making state government leaner, smarter and more responsive by bringing a common sense approach to the way government does business. It means taxpayers should get a dollar’s worth of service for every dollar they send to government, whether it goes to Trenton, their local town hall or school board. Government on all levels must stop thinking that money is the solution to their problems and start examining how they spend the money they now have. It is time for government to do something different. Of major concern is the rising cost of local government. There is no doubt that local government costs and the property taxes that pay for them have been rising steadily over the past decade. Prior to Governor Whitman’s taking office in 1994, the state had never worked as closely with towns to examine what is behind those costs. That is why she created the Local Government Budget Review (LGBR) program. Its mission is simple: to help local governments and school boards find savings and efficiencies without compromising the delivery of services to the public. The LGBR program utilizes an innovative approach combining the expertise of professionals, primarily from the Departments of Treasury, Community Affairs and Education, with team leaders who are experienced local government managers.
