Residents will decide in November whether or not they want their part of the barrier island to stay North Wildwood, the Press of Atlantic City reports.

Last month, more than 100 people signed a petition to change the borough name to Anglesea, which it was originally founded as in 1885.

The city council responded Tuesday by unanimously voting in favor of adding a local referendum over the borough's name.

In 2004, South Belmar voted to become Lake Como to distinguish itself from the neighboring municipality.
