Embers Restaurant outdoor dining enclosure
Ocean City
Description
Embers asked to waive 15 parking spaces so it could enclose 1,425 square feet of its covered outdoor dining area with roll-up glass doors. The Board denied it, saying a restaurant/retail/entertainment complex isn't special enough under the code to skip the parking.
Impact summary
The Board of Zoning Appeals denied it on Mar 26, 2026.
The restaurant keeps its current semi-enclosed setup but can't fully enclose the space without meeting the full parking requirement.
