AVALON MAYOR MARTIN PAGLIUGHI has announced that he will not seek re-election as Avalon’s mayor, after having served in the postion for 32 years, according to a Cape May County Herald article. Having been elected to the position in 1991, many Avalon residents, homeowners, and visitors don’t remember a time when Pagliughi wasn’t the mayor. Avalon’s next election is slated for May 9th, 2023.
