Top issues during term (14)(General)
Beach Code Enforcement Report
The council funded these enforcement positions earlier this year; exact cost wasn't restated at this meeting.
Beach replenishment funding shortfall
$1.25 million one-time now, and the city's annual contribution doubles from $500,000 to $1 million starting FY28.
boardwalk tram feasibility study
Reviving the tram could mean upfront capital and operating costs for the city, while dropping it could save taxpayer money but reduce Boardwalk spending.
Teen pop-up mobs downtown
Taxpayers and local businesses could see costs shift toward more policing and crowd management, while the town hopes to protect tourism revenue by preventing disruptive gatherings.
homeless shelter dispute
The dispute could pull public money toward legal costs, permitting fights, or alternative shelter arrangements, though the exact price tag isn’t clear yet.
beach erosion
Erosion is hitting Ocean City’s wallet through lost events and likely future dune repair costs.
youth curfew legislation
It could help downtown businesses by curbing disruptive crowds, but the city may spend more on enforcement and lose some teen-driven spending.
beach renourishment contract
The feds are covering the $25.7 million tab, so the immediate cost isn’t landing on local beachgoers or homeowners.
homeless shelter zoning dispute
The fight could mean legal bills for the city and church, plus costs tied to shelter operations or enforcement.
homeless shelter legal dispute
There’s $20K in fines on the line—plus legal costs—so this fight could get expensive for both the church and city taxpayers.
beach restoration
Taxpayers and beach users could feel the $25.7M price tag through local, state, or federal funding decisions—and future storms may mean more costly repairs.
Short-Term Rental License Limits in R-1 and MH Neighborhoods
Could affect rental property owners' income and the city's license fee revenue, though no figures were provided.
church homelessness dispute
Taxpayers could see added costs if the city spends staff time or legal resources enforcing local rules, while the church may shoulder shelter expenses.
homeless shelter lawsuit
Taxpayers could foot the bill for dueling legal fees, while the shelter may face higher operating or compliance costs if it keeps fighting.
