Last year, hundreds of cars flooded the island as part of an unsanctioned vehicle rally called H2Oi.
Police say that officials have had any social media posts promoting the event taken down. They are also working with the Cape May County Prosecutor's office to monitor the situation.
Shortly after the tragedy last year, Wildwood announced plans to pass ordinances to triple fines for unsanctioned events."In the past year, we've contacted owners of these larger lots and gotten their written permission that in the event something like this pops up, we don't have to contact them," said Mayor Pete Byron. "We as the police have the ability to tow these cars on our own.""I don't want them in my hometown," said Juarez.
There are several sanctioned events happening in the Wildwoods this weekend, including the Fall Classic Car Show on the boardwalk. Police say they have no credible information that a large-scale H2Oi event is happening, but they say they're preparing just in case.
