Beach Haven was incorporated as a Borough by an act of the New Jersey Legislature on November 11, 1890, from portions of Eagleswood Township, based on the results of a referendum held five days earlier.[22]


History


Beach Haven, known as the "Queen City,"[23] is a late 19th-century beachfront resort originally established in 1873 to house wealthy summer residents from Philadelphia. Although some of the major structures, including several hotels and a boardwalk, were lost to storms in the 1940s including the Great Atlantic Hurricane of 1944,[24] a large portion of the town retains its Victorian and Edwardian character. The Beach Haven Historic District listed in the New Jersey and the National Register of Historic Places in the early 1980s, encompasses the most intact buildings at the core of the resort.[25]

The first incident in the Jersey Shore shark attacks of 1916 took place at the east end of Engleside Avenue.[26][27] The ensuing series of attacks along the Jersey Shore became the basis for the book Jaws, by Peter Benchley.[28]


Geography


According to the United States Census Bureau, the borough had a total area of 2.33 square miles (6.03 km2), including 0.98 square miles (2.54 km2) of land and 1.35 square miles (3.50 km2) of water (57.94%).[2][3]

The borough borders the Ocean County municipalities of Little Egg Harbor Township and Long Beach Township.[29][30][31]

Parks and recreation


Beach Haven is home to multiple attractions, including the only amusement park on the island: Fantasy Island,[43] Bay Village Shopping Center, the Long Beach Island Museum[44] and many distinctive shops and restaurants, including Tucker's Restaurant, noted in Philadelphia magazine as the number one restaurant on Long Beach Island.

The borough offers Fantasy Island amusement park, Thundering Surf water park and numerous miniature golf facilities. Veteran's Bicentennial Park, in the heart of Beach Haven, hosts many summer concerts, flea markets and parades, and an open park area for general recreation. As the island is only a few blocks wide, the beach and the bay (Little Egg Harbor) are readily accessible from anywhere in Beach Haven. Pavilions could be found at Fifth and Pearl Streets, both of which were washed away by Hurricane Sandy in October 2012[45] and subsequently rebuilt in June 2013.[46] Beach badges are required and can be purchased at Borough Hall or the Centre Street badge booth, however daily and weekly badges may be purchased via mobile app.[47]

Local government


Since 2010, Beach Haven has operated within the Faulkner Act, formally known as the Optional Municipal Charter Law, under the Council-Manager form of government. The township is one of 42 municipalities (of the 564) statewide that use this form of government.[48] The governing body is comprised of five members, who are elected on an at-large basis in staggered non-partisan elections, with either two or three seats up for vote in even-numbered years as part of the November general election in a four-year cycle. At a reorganization meeting held each January, one member is chosen as mayor and another as council president, each serving one-year terms in that position.[4][49] Beach Haven had previously been governed under the Walsh Act, by a three-member Board of Commissioners, one of whom was selected to serve as Mayor, under a system in place from 1946 to 2010.[50][51]

As of 2022, members of the Beach Haven Borough Council are Mayor Colleen Lambert (2024), Council President Jaime Baumiller (2022), Daniel Allen (2022), Nancy Taggart Davis (2024) and Kristina Rutherford (2024).[5][52][53]</ref>[54][55][56]

In the November 2014 general election incumbent James White, who had not placed his name on the ballot for re-election, won the second open council seat behind a write-in campaign that brought him 167 votes, ahead of Don Katskis, who had received a total of 165 votes.[57][58]

At an annual reorganization held in the beginning of January, the board chooses a Director and a Deputy Director from among its members.[68] As of 2022, Ocean County's Freeholders (with party affiliation, term-end year and residence) are Commissioner Director John P.
