Town of Nantucket raised Beach permits from $20 to $50 for residents this year, if purchased BEFORE 5/31. After is $100 !. OUCH !!!

Out of state is $200. Up from $20. DOUBLE OUCH !!!!!!!!

Great Point pass (which is separate) went from $85 to $125. ANOTHER OUCH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you are a member of the TOTR (Great Point, etc.) it is $40. Membership is $40. Get's the person to think a little. Anyone know what impulse buying means ?

The bottom line here is too many beach goers were ABUSING the privilege and more enforcement was necessary. We see it. More cops on town beaches and more rangers out at Great Point.

Don't assume people are rich and they can afford it. It is the cost of doing business.

Sorry to hear about the non info in RI. It was well known here and we just HAD to accept it.
We figured it was better than a filthy beach full of people who really don't give a damn !

The change is amazing. A lot less riff-raff.............
