OLD LYME — Beach passes are now on sale from the Old Lyme Town Hall. The beaches will re-open May 23, but there is a possibility they may be closed again. In the event of further beach closures, no refunds will given for beach passes purchased.
You must be an Old Lyme taxpayer in order to purchase a Beach Parking Pass. View or download the beach pass application at this link.
Since Town Hall remains closed to the public, there are two ways to purchase a beach pass as follows:
- Mail a check with your payment, proof of residency, and the application form to the First Selectman’s Office, 52 Lyme St., Old Lyme CT 06371.
- Place the items listed in the first bullet in an envelope and drop it through the mail slot in the Town Hall front door with the appropriate cash or check. Credit card payments cannot be accepted at this time.
After receiving the payment and required information, the application will be processed and the beach pass(es) mailed to the address related to the application.
The fee for the first beach pass is $25.00 while a second one costs $40.00. Therefore the price for two beach passes, which is the maximum permitted per family this year, is $65.00. There are no reduced rates for beach passes this year.
Old Lyme First Selectman Tim Griswold noted in a text message this morning, “They [Beach Passes] are selling briskly.”
