Encourage those entrusted with the stewardship of important community cultural and historic artifacts and archives to develop specialized hazard mitigation and disaster response plans to protect their collections from irreparable damage. 2. Create awareness that Monmouth Arts is recognized as the county’s primary Arts Responder to help connect the arts community to information, resources, and emergency funding in the aftermath of a disaster. 3. Support art-based community recovery programs that provide a creative outlet for individuals and communities coping with the stress, grief, and emotional strain resulting from disaster. 4. Art organizations collaboratively develop contingency programming for conflict resolution and conflict avoidance for implementation in the wake of disaster. 5. Identify and implement appropriate hazard mitigation protection strategies that protect historic resources without diminishing the historical integrity of the building or structure.

  • CITY of ASBURY PARK Comprehensive Parking Management Plan
    CITY OF ASBURY PARK Comprehensive Parking Management Plan Submitted to: Department of Planning & Redevelopment City of Asbury Park, New Jersey Prepared by: March 2015 CITY OF ASBURY PARK Comprehensive Parking Management Plan EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The City of Asbury Park (“City”) is a 1.5 square mile Atlantic coast waterfront community located in Monmouth County, New Jersey. The City is characterized by its rich history as a seaside resort, a center for the performing arts, and its history as a commercial destination. The City is currently in the midst of a period of revitalization. A variety of large and small revitalization projects have been recently completed, while others are in various stages of planning and implementation. These projects are transforming the City’s Waterfront, Central Business District (CBD), Main Street corridor, and the Springwood Avenue redevelopment district. Along with this revitalization has come some concerns that the community’s need for parking to support continued growth and redevelopment has become a serious challenge, and in turn, economic revitalization may suffer. At present, the City’s parking system is comprised of several off‐street surface parking lots and a network of on‐street parking meter pay stations which are dispersed throughout the downtown and waterfront district. The City also owned one parking structure located in the downtown area which was sold to the State of New Jersey in 1999. The garage is open to the public on weekends but primarily is used to support the functions at the State Office building during weekday business hours. Several private sector entities control a number of surface parking lots in downtown area and on the waterfront.

In 2006, Monmouth’s Department of Surgery added another impressive achievement to its long list of minimally invasive firsts, becoming the first and only hospital in the region to offer the da Vinci S Surgical System—the sophisticated robotic plat- form that combines computer and robotic technologies with the skills of the surgeon to overcome the limitations of traditional surgery. For Monmouth, the da Vinci system has painted a pic- ture of surgical precision and a future in which an ever-widen- ing population of patients will be able to benefit from the advantages offered by minimally invasive surgery. Now Monmouth—the hospital that performs the most pediatric surgeries and same-day procedures in Monmouth and Ocean counties each year—has broadened its robotic sur- gical scope to include children.

  • Bruce Springsteen Tourism to Asbury Park (& the Jersey Shore)
    'Bruceland', the 'Promised Land' and the 'Land of Hope and Dreams' Constructing Music Tourism: Bruce Springsteen Fans and the Meaning of Visiting Asbury Park and the Jersey Shore Master Thesis Tourism and Culture Arts and Culture Studies Radboud University Name: C.A. van Helden, MA Student number: 4168968 Supervisor: Dr. F.P.G.B.M. Meens Date: 15 August 2018 Van Helden / s4168968 / 2 Abstract Recently, the niche of music tourism has become increasingly significant and widespread. Even though research into music tourism has also started to develop more broadly, the perspective of fans travelling someplace out of fandom of a musician, band, or music scene remains rather neglected. This research will focus on the case study of fans of Bruce Springsteen and his ‘adopted’ hometown of Asbury Park, New Jersey, as well as its neighboring towns of Belmar, Freehold, and Long Branch. In this thesis, this area is referred to as Asbury Park and the Jersey shore. This research will focus on an interpretation of recurring themes in the ways in which fans of Bruce Springsteen describe their motivations for visiting this area, as well as their experiences. As such, this research aims to add to an understanding of the ways in which (fan) tourists add to a construction of a music tourism destination; in other words, how do fans of Bruce Springsteen shape an image of said destination in their discourses? What makes their visit meaningful? How do they contribute to a particular tourist landscape? Van Helden / s4168968 / 3 Table of Contents Introduction ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4.
