In 2011 Bid-A-Wee restricted access via their 6 walkways to the public beach. This access is covered by a long standing Public Easement. BAW resident Martin opposed the closing and BAW President Smith alleged an incident took place where Smith was injured and Martin arrested. Martin was aquitted in 20 minutes of deliberation and now sues the City of PCB and a former PDBPD officer who lied about the arrest.
