Sea Isle City City Council Meetings Are Now Being Live Streamed

 

In an effort to continue the City’s longstanding policy of engaging with the public and keeping everyone informed of timely information, a new source of communication between the public and the City of Sea Isle City will be made available starting April 28: Live Streaming of all City Council Meetings.

 

The Live Streaming process will allow anyone to remotely view (and hear) all future City Council meetings.  Sea Isle City’s Live Streaming process will be offered via YouTube – and you will not need your own YouTube account or any log-in information to view the Council Meetings while they are live streamed (or afterwards when the meetings are offered as recordings).

 

Here’s how to view City Council meetings being Live-Streamed:

 

  1. As the City Council meeting is about to begin, go to Sea Isle City’s municipal website, https://www.seaislecitynj.us/, and click the “City YouTube (Live Stream)” link near the top of the home page.  Please Note: You can also access Sea Isle’s YouTube channel by clicking the “YouTube” link at the bottom of the homepage of our municipal website.
  2. Once you arrive on Sea Isle City’s YouTube homepage, click the “Live” link.
  3. The meeting will automatically begin to live-stream – however, please expect a 10-15 second delay (which is normal).

Additional Info that may help you while live-streaming:

 

  1. The live stream will not be visible on your screen until the City Council meeting officially begins (which is typically at 10:00 AM).
  2. If you are on the YouTube channel before the start of the meeting, you will have to “refresh” your screen to view the live stream once the meeting begins.
  3. Once the meeting concludes, approximately one hour later the entire City Council meeting will be available for viewing at your leisure. To watch a replay of any meeting, click the “Live” tab on Sea Isle’s YouTube Channel (all recorded meetings will appear in the line-up from newest to oldest).




CITY COUNCIL MESSAGE                May 9, 2026

The May 9 City Council meeting is the city’s annual meeting held on the Saturday of Community Day at 9:00 a.m. During the May 9 meeting, there was second reading and public hearing for Ordinance 1737, which establishes parking regulations at various locations around Sea Isle City (including the Community Center, the Dog Park and along 4th Street). There was no public comment on the ordinance, and it was adopted by unanimous vote of the council.

Each of the resolutions on the May 9 Consent Agenda were approved, including…

  • Resolution 059, which designated abandoned bicycles as surplus property and authorized their sale at a live auction (held immediately following the council meeting).
  • Resolution 060, which authorized Community Service Department contracts for various programs, including basketball camps, soccer camps, marine science camps, dance instruction, lacrosse camps, tennis and pickleball camps, baseball camps, theater camps, and other programs and activities. 
  • Resolution 061, which authorized the use of Tennis Fee Trust Funds in the amount of $15,843.75, for windscreens at the Dealy Field tennis courts. 
  • Resolution 062, which authorized an interlocal services agreement with Cape May County for animal sheltering and animal adoption services. 
  • Resolution 063, which confirmed Mayor Desiderio’s appointment of Christie Ostrander as Director of Community Services.

During the “Citizen Comment” portion of the May 9 meeting, two individuals stepped to the microphone, and raised questions about the proposed handicapped accessible ramp at 47th Street and the promenade; and about the pump station project proposed for 46th Street, specifically regarding the discharge for that pump station. The citizens were informed that the 47th Street ramp would be constructed in the fall, and that there would be another public meeting regarding the discharge location for the pump station (the mayor previously mentioned at this council meeting that the administration was actively looking at options to discharge the pump station into the intracoastal waterway). 

This is our last council meeting prior to Memorial Day, and we want to wish all our residents and visitors a safe and enjoyable Memorial Day weekend, and remind everyone about our Memorial Day Ceremony to be held at 10:00 a.m. at Veterans Park (rain location in the Community Center).  

Our next City Council meeting will take place on Tuesday, May 26, at 10:00 AM on the third floor of City Hall – and we hope to see you there! 


Best regards from the members of City Council,
