Counterfeits were a problem last summer in Surf City. Officials believe the scofflaws used a scanner.
So the town decided to do two things about it. First, it imposed a fine of up to $2,500 for those caught making the fakes.
Now it's introducing holograms on the badges.
Surf City is dropping the price of its tags despite the higher technology. One-day passes will be $7 instead of $8. Season passes will be $35. It's the only town on Long Beach Island to reduce the fees.
