BEACH SEASON
Town Beaches will be open for the start of the season beginning Memorial Day Weekend and will be staffed by attendants as usual. However, annual permits will be sold at the Town Office, and the Board has continued the decision to not allow day passes. This means that parking is limited to Bristol taxpayers, residents and guests (guests and family members of proper- ty owners). Purchasing your passes: This year, you can only purchase beach pass- es at the Town Office at the Town Clerk/ Tax Collector's office located at 5 School Street during business hours. There will be no transactions at the Town beaches. If you do not have a pass when you arrive at the beaches, you will be asked to go to the Town Office and get a pass. Chemical toi- lets are located at each beach, but will not be cleaned daily, so use at your own risk. Parking: There are parking spaces on Shore Drive for Avery-Crouse Beach and in a parking lot along Cummings Beach. No parking is allowed on unmarked areas of Shore Drive and no parking is allowed on West Shore Road. Parking rules will be strictly enforced through ticketing and tow- ing. Fines start at $80.00.
