The Seaside Park Police Department has implemented its Body Worn Camera Program. All sworn members of the Seaside Park Police Department will be equipped with Axon Body 3 cameras. All uniformed personnel will have the Body Worn Camera affixed to their outermost garment in the upper chest/torso region. Officers not in uniform may have the body worn camera affixed to approved belt camera brackets.

It is the policy of the Seaside Park Police Department to utilize Body Worn Cameras to assist the Sworn members of the agency in the performance of their duties by providing accurate and unbiased recorded accounts of all police incidents.

The Seaside Park Police Department is committed to providing the highest quality of Police services to our community. Body Worn Camera recordings are invaluable to law enforcement in numerous ways such as the gathering of evidence. Body Worn Camera recordings are valuable for the prosecution of criminal cases, traffic cases, and other related offenses. Body Worn Camera recordings will protect police personnel from claims of misconduct, as well as to assist in investigations of citizen complaints of Officer actions. Additionally, Body Worn Camera recordings will provide valuable feedback to Department Supervisors to correct any potential problems. Finally, Body Worn Camera recordings will provide valuable instructional material that can be utilized for in-service training.

There will be a meeting of the Seaside Park Neighborhood Watch Monday March 13th at 7pm in council chambers above the police station.

Join us at the March 9th Council Meeting for a kickoff celebration for the borough’s 125th Anniversary! There will be cake and light refreshments provided to commemorate this milestone achievement! Hope to see you all there!

From our Borough Administrator Karen Kroon:

On Thursday, March 2 a deceased juvenile Humpback whale washed ashore in the Borough of Seaside Park. Notification was made to the Marine Mammal Stranding Center and within a few hours multiple agencies and resources were on the ground in our Borough to assist.

The Borough would like to thank and recognize everyone that helped support the mission of retrieving the whale from the surf, relocation, necropsy and, ultimately, the disposal of the whale.

Many Thanks To:

· The Marine Mammal Stranding Center

· Atlantic Marine Conservation Society

· National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)

· NJDEP – NJ State Park Service

· NJDEP – Fish and Wildlife Bureau of Law Enforcement

· Seaside Park Department of Public Works

· Seaside Heights Department of Public Works

· Seaside Park Police Department

· Seaside Park Volunteer Fire Department – Station 45

· Seaside Heights Volunteer Fire Department – Station 44

· Tri-Boro First Aid Squad

· Bill Major for allowing the whale to be staged and necropsied on Funtown Beach and for lending and operating the heavy equipment necessary to move the whale

· The Sawmill Restaurant for feeding the volunteers and staff at the conclusion of the mission

Through the efforts of all these agencies, individuals and corporate citizens the mission was completed in about 30 hours.
