202 8th Street second means of egress staircase (BZA 2739)

Ocean City

Description

A variance of 1.9 feet from the side setback for a fire-marshal-required staircase on a 1950 nonconforming rental building was heard but no vote was taken after a denial motion failed to draw a second.

Impact summary

The life-safety fix is still up in the air, leaving the owner to pursue the variance again or costlier fire-marshal alternatives.
