We do not keep these records. You can reach out to the Fire District 1 and
Fire District 2 offices.
 
In 2022, the township repealed the old Chapter 473 (Vacant and Abandoned
Properties) and replaced it with a new Chapter 473 (Property Registration
Program) to comply with the state law P.L. 2021, c. 444. Old ordinance
targeted properties that were already vacant or abandoned. New ordinance
targets properties in foreclosure, even if they are still occupied or
maintained, plus additional requirements if they become vacant.
**attached is the list of foreclosures that are also vacant**
 
Water is a private company.
Current Sewer - contact the Toms River MUA.
