Homeless Shelter Zoning Dispute

Ocean City

Summary

A church in Ocean City is fighting City Hall over whether it can shelter homeless people, and critics say the town is prioritizing a 'Disneyland' resort image over real needs. The dispute is now headed into local government, so it could shape where unhoused people can actually go.
