Asbury Park recently signed an agreement with the New Jersey Public Advocate to become a “Model Lead-Safe City”.
The city is going to designate a Lead-Safe City Coordinator who will head up all efforts related to responding to and preventing lead poisoning.
Asbury will also distribute lead poisoning educational materials through the schools, increase testing, prevention and relocation of families with lead-poisoned children.
Asbury Park is the ninth “Model Lead-Safe City’ in the state.
