Snooki & JWoww has been granted a New Jersey filming permit following a series of rejections.
The MTV reality series was recently blocked from shooting scenes for the second season in both Point Pleasant Beach and Toms River.
Point Pleasant's borough councilman William Mayer justified the ruling by saying Snooki & JWoww's production is "not what [the town needs] at this point", while Toms River has long banned shooting within its borders.
Manchester, NJ Mayor Michael Fressola has now disclosed to The Asbury Park Press that Snooki & JWoww will move its filming to his city in the next few days.
"We got word in advance that they were coming. When I got the request I checked into our ordinance to see if we had anything on the books, and there is nothing against a production group coming in and producing a show," Fressola explained.
The Manchester area is heavily populated by senior citizens, who Mayor Fressola predicted will likely not be excited by the news.

"The only expectations we have is for them to be good neighbours and obey our police department," he said.
Snooki & JWoww was renewed for a second season by MTV in early August.
