A parking lot at Brick\u2019s Traders Cove Marina and Park will soon have a two hour time limit, but some visitors may have already thought the new rules were in place.<\/p>\n

The township council, in a 6-1 vote, passed an ordinance temporarily setting seasonal limits on parking in the lot closest to the playground area at Traders Cove. Mayor John Ducey said the ordinance was in response to people parking in the lot, then hopping on a friend\u2019s boat to travel to nearby F-Cove. The regulations will go into effect 20 days from Tuesday night\u2019s vote, said Township Attorney Scott W. Kenneally.<\/p>\n

But Councilman Jim Fozman, the only council member to oppose the time limit, held up a photo he took of signs already showing the regulations \u2013 even though they had yet to pass council and cannot be enforced for another 20 days.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are 20 signs up there, this is a joke,\u201d said Fozman, who questioned whether there was a problem with parking at the park and whether the township could properly enforce the time limit.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re telling me there are 65 parking spaces filled up with people going to F-Cove?\u201d asked Fozman. \u201cAre they going to chalk your tires? How are they going to enforce this?\u201d<\/p>\n

Business Administrator Joanne Bergin said she took responsibility for the signs being erected prematurely, adding they would be covered until the regulations become active.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey were installed at my direction and I will have them covered,\u201d said Bergin.<\/p>\n

The ordinance sets a two hour parking limit at the parking lot adjacent to the playground between May 15 and Sept. 15. The ordinance expires Sept. 15, giving council members the option to renew it for another year after seeing how the regulations work out this season.<\/p>\n

Ducey said the time limit may be expanded to cover Bayside Park off Route 35, since beachgoers sometimes park there for extended times instead of using the township\u2019s official, fee-based lots closer to the beach.<\/p>\n
