Kick-Off for a Safe Summer

Ocean County officials joined New Jersey Attorney General Jennifer Davenport and the State Division of Consumer Affairs Acting Director Jeremy E. Hollander on the Seaside Heights boardwalk to kick off the “Safe Summer” compliance initiative.

The annual event, held June 9, promotes a safe, family-friendly environment along the Jersey Shore through summer-long inspections of boardwalk games and businesses. Consumer Affairs investigators checked for proper pricing and refund policy disclosures, while staff from the Legalized Games of Chance Control Commission and the State Office of Weights and Measures ensured fair gameplay and accurate scales.

Joining Attorney General Danvenport were Ocean County Commissioner Robert S. Arace, Ocean County Prosecutor Bradley D. Billhimer, Ocean County Consumer Affairs Director Ronald Heinzman, Seaside Heights Police Chief Thomas Boyd, Seaside Heights Mayor Anthony Vaz and staff from each participating agency. Educational materials were distributed to help empower consumers and protect against fraud.
