Things to Note: This event would be a parade of Mazda Miatas on the Boardwalk. The event participants would assemble at 27th Street and proceed along the Boardwalk, exiting at the Inlet Parking Lot. The event participants would then proceed out of town together. The event would line-up beginning at 4:30 pm. The event would take place from 5-6 pm. The event coordinator requests the Inlet Parking Fee be waived for participating vehicles. All the cars would vacate the lot by 6 pm. The event expects to have no more than 75 cars participate. The event coordinators request a police escort on the Boardwalk. Comments from Department Representatives: OCPD Suggest the parade end and exit the Boardwalk at North Division Street due to the amount of people likely to be on the Boardwalk at that time of day/year. OCPD will provide an officer with a marked patrol vehicle to line up behind the cars as they stage on Baltimore Avenue near 27th Street. OCPD will have a second marked patrol vehicle lead the vehicles south on the Boardwalk. OCPD may need an additional officer on 27th Street. PUBLIC WORKS While this event has been taking place for the past few years without incident, this year set-up for Bike Week and Sunfest will be in process at the Inlet Parking Lot. Recommend that the parade exit at North Division Street to eliminate any confusion or congestion. RISK MANAGEMENT, OCBP, FIRE MARSHAL, EMERGENCY SERVICES, OCCC, TOURISM, TRANSPORTATION, and REC & PARKS No comments, concerns or costs.

The 2012 event was a significant change from past Firemens parade events. The new traffic pattern put in place in 2012 significantly reduced the costs to the Town of Ocean City. The event, with the new traffic pattern, was reportedly a success and we look forward to continued success with the new traffic pattern. Total cost for this years event is expected to be $4,472,91, which is a DECREASE of over $6,000, compared to the old parade route. RISK MANAGEMENT Insurance Certificate need to be obtained prior to the event. FIRE MARSHAL On-duty personnel will be assigned to the event. PUBLIC WORKS Provide needed items and services for this annual parade and convention. Last year was the first year holding the parade on the new Baltimore Avenue route, which made the event more manageable, less costly for our support services, and deemed to be a successful change by most participants. Total costs for the division of last years parade was $13,844 and this years costs should be similar. With the new parade route in place, we have REDUCED our support costs by $5,783. TRANSPORTATION Northbound bus patrols south of 15th St. and Baltimore Ave. may need to board and alight adjacent to existing bus stops as vehicle parade staging is anticipated in the eastern lane of Baltimore Ave. TOURISM, EMERGENCY SERVICES, OCBP, OCCC, and REC & PARKS No comments, concerns or costs.

REGULAR SESSION -MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL MONDAY, JUNE 3, 2013 9 ITEMS REFERRED TO AND PRESENTATIONS FROM THE CITY SOLICITOR A. Second Reading Ordinance 2013-09 to Adopt the FY 2014 Budget
TOWN OF
The Honorable Mayor, Council President and Members of Council David L. Recor, ICMA-CM, City Manager Jennie Knapp, Budget Manager FY 14 Budget 05/28/13 Second Reading of Ordinance for FY 14 Budget, as amended Skateboard Park part-time hours have been restored to the amount originally presented in the Departmental budget. Skateboard Park annual pass revenue has been increased $6,397, which was the projected estimate for lost revenue due to the reduction of Skateboard Park hours. Estimated Recreation donations have been increased to reflect a $1,000 donation pledged from the Elks club toward operations of the Skateboard Park. The amount taken from fund balance has been increased $13,829 to offset the additional labor expenses. The amount taken from prior year reserves (fund balance) increases $13,829, from $247,066 to $260,895. Although this amount is necessary to balance the budget, these funds will only be taken from fund balance in FY 14 if necessary.

MEMORANDUM
Council Members Mayor Rick Meehan May 30, 2013 Additional Paid Parking
Throughout the current budget process, the Mayor and Council have been faced with many difficult decisions. I realize our goal is to try to balance how we pay for costs related to providing services to the community that our property owners, residents and visitors expect and deserve and that this is a very difficult task. The issue with regard to paid parking has been one of our more controversial challenges. After listening to both the Council and the citizens that have spoken on this topic, I would like to make the following recommendations to the council for their consideration. Parking on 146th Street: In 2011, the City improved 146th Street and added 16 new parking spaces. I recommend that we Cale only these 16 new spaces that are closest to the beach. This will leave the same number of spaces on this street available for free parking that were there when the owners at Ocean Place originally purchased their units. 131st Street: One property owner on 131st Street has requested parking meters. I recommend that we Cale the spaces that are contiguous to his properties. The 9 spaces that are contiguous to Mr. Graves property would be left as free parking spaces if he so requests. I also suggest that these Cales be operational from 9am to 12pm daily. West side of Philadelphia Ave south of Division Street: I suggest that we treat this area the same as we have other streets in the downtown commercial area, and allow property owners with spaces contiguous to their property to request to have those spaces remain as free parking. We have received a letter from Mr. and Mrs. Stoll and I have received a request from Mr. Steger to take this action.
The net effect of this proposal: Difference 146th Street: Difference 131st Street Difference (7spaces) West side of Philadelphia Ave Between N. Division and South First Street. Total -$12,800 -$ 5,850 -$ 4,550
-$23,200
The balance of the revenue we project to receive by accepting this compromise proposal in the amount of $92,250 will benefit the taxpayers not just this year but for future years as well. I realize this proposal will not answer everyones concerns, but I think it goes a long way toward addressing the concerns that have been brought to the Council. It is my hope that this compromise proposal will allow the Council to move past the 4 to 3 and 5 to 2 votes we have seen recently and to work together, with the community, to move forward. Respectfully, Rick Meehan Mayor

Renovation of two buildings at 105 Dorchester Street to provide seasonal housing. A Green Building Initiatives Program to provide energy efficient enhancements to downtown buildings. To date 18 buildings have been improved using this program. About $240,000 of private investment has occurred so far. The creation of a Business Assistance Program to provide financial assistance to new and expanding downtown businesses to decrease the upfront costs of such new business starts. Other Town of Ocean City capital projects include the construction the tram building for $200,000, Worcester Street restrooms/ Police Department station for $700,000, and the Boardwalk improvements for $6 million.

attractive means of transport for many other visitors. In addition, the Boardwalk tram runs from South 1st Street to 27th Street provides another fun way to get around Ocean City. The Town of Ocean City spends substantial funds to enhance and maintain their infrastructure. As a tourist destination serving millions of visitors each year such infrastructure must be in excellent working condition. Such infrastructure includes streets, sewer, water, drainage and lighting. Another defining amenity to this area is the system of alleyways. These interior alleys cover most of the district above N. Division Street and provide a very good method of limited travel as well as screening of vehicle deliveries and trash pickup. Whenever possible, these alleyways should be expanded and sometimes improved. They also represent an opportunity to use green building techniques as applied in other areas of the country. Downtown Ocean City has a number of organizations interested in the area. A group, called the Partners was created to improve networking and coordinating of various issues, particularly related to business and economic development. The Partners Group consists of the following organizations: Ocean City Development Corporation, Ocean City Chamber of Commerce, Hotel Motel Restaurant Association, Downtown Association, and the Economic Development Committee. These groups meet as needed to address specific issues several times. The OCDC has requested previous support from Partner members in terms of its downtown design standards and requests for grant assistance. WEAKNESSES: The downtown district is still in a transitional stage of revitalization. While there has been some previous new construction there has been substantial renovation. However, there are also areas that are still are in need of redevelopment. A number of buildings are in fair to poor condition. Several are examples of demolition by neglect buildings. Historic buildings - This area does not contain a historic district as many of the older buildings have been either modified or demolished. There are a handful of individual buildings that may qualify for this historic status; however, the many of these owners tend not to be interested in pursuing this designation. The only designated historic structure in Ocean City is the St. Pauls By-The-Sea Episcopal Church located at Baltimore Avenue and 3rd Street. Short business season Ocean City as a tourist destination has a relatively short business season. Although the business season has been lengthened with other activities most businesses still close during the offseasons. This seasonal nature of employment provides challenges for many employees and year round residents. Lack of Downtown Attractions - Other than the beach, the boardwalk is Ocean Citys number one destination. The downtown core offers very little else in support of the boardwalk and beach attractions. It was noted by the International Waterfront Group (IWG) 1999 report the Downtown Ocean City has become a parking lot and circulation mode of transportation for the boardwalk and beach. No other anchor exists to attract visitors to the downtown core especially during the off peak season. Traffic Congestion - Congested downtown interior roadways discourage pedestrian interaction with downtown core businesses. People want to get away from vehicular traffic and go to the beach or boardwalk. City Codes As noted by the IWG report that many business owners feel that the city has not done enough to enforce codes that relate to the upkeep of structures. Because of this, there is unwillingness by business owners to invest capital into facility improvements. There is a lack of confidence from prospective investors because of the uncertainty in knowing what kind of neighbor will exist. However, many others feel that the existing codes are too restrictive and should be relaxed to encourage a more pro business climate. Some have suggested fewer regulations, citing that private sector investment will flow in areas where there exists little resistance.

SC Application - FY 2012
DRAFT
In 1999, IWG found many local residents were skeptical that any aggressive downtown initiative would not have the necessary political and economic support needed to realize the areas full potential. International Waterfront Group (IWG) was retained in 1999 by the Town of Ocean City to develop a comprehensive master plan for Ocean Citys downtown area which recognized the importance of the boardwalk and bay front and to formulate a plan that motivated pedestrian interaction between these anchors. Additional projects have been added to this master plan. The 1999 project boundaries were defined between 4thStreet to the north, the inlet to the south, boardwalk to the east, and the bay to the west. In addition to circulation issues, private sector investment issues, particularly how to encourage private sector investment in the downtown core were considered. However, over the past few years these boundaries were expanded to 17th Street, which this additional area often referred to as the upper downtown area. In 1999 many local residents made it well known to the IWG team that cynicism was in abundance considering the number of planning studies that have been completed through the years. IWG believed this local skepticism could be overcome with a series of small accomplishments, for which the Ocean City Development Corporation, a nonprofit organization set up in 2000, has been implementing. As mentioned in the IWG report, there were several phases necessary to bring about revitalization activities to downtown Ocean city. It was noted that each phase will be challenging, however, as each phase is accomplished, a healthier vibrant downtown core will be achieved. The challenge given was to tie the recommended boardwalk improvements to the rest of the downtown core area and continue these concepts to the bay front district thus creating a transition zone concept and make specific recommendations towards implementing a plan of action. A major theme was to improve and bring about a series of capital projects that would spur private investment. This Plan of Action has been generally followed by the Ocean City Development Corporation in its pursuit of a revitalized downtown Ocean City.

Short tourism season The prime Ocean City season runs only during the summer season. In fact as the school season starts in August for most of Maryland and surrounding states, the number of peak weeks has diminished to the month of July and first 2 weeks of August. The tourists continue to travel to Ocean City for weekends before and after these prime weeks. However, this seasonal nature of Ocean City tourism can make for a very challenging economic environment. Such seasons are very dependent on weather. Small year round resident population base The small year round population base of Ocean City and the large number of tourists coming to Ocean City makes for a challenging task in terms of providing the number of employees necessary to accommodate the tourism industry. The Town of Ocean City is dependent on the labor supply of other areas of the mid-Atlantic region and foreign worker labor. It is estimated that 3,000 foreign workers travel to Ocean City each summer to provide this labor. There are many American residents also traveling and living in Ocean City each summer to meet the tourism demands. In addition to this high seasonal demand the opposite occurs in the off-season. The small population base makes it difficult to support local small businesses in Ocean City. The nature of such tourism businesses such as retail and restaurant uses also results in many lower wage positions being needed. Such a low wage base makes it difficult for families to live in Ocean City, particularly when work is very limited in the off-season months to support a family. The issue of Tax Differential between the Town of Ocean City and Worcester County creates an economic weakness for the Sustainable Community Area. Properties in unincorporated Worcester County and immediately adjacent to the Town of Ocean City do not share the same tax burden as those properties in the Sustainable Community Area. The businesses and residences in unincorporated Worcester County therefore are more capable of retaining capital for reinvestment and revitalization efforts thus placing businesses and residences in the Sustainable community area at a marked disadvantage to economically compete or improve property value. Lack of business variety and competition from outside Ocean CityThe tourism base makes for a limited type of business in Ocean City. Often the chain stores locating in west Ocean City are providing many of the goods and merchandise found in more traditional downtown areas. The bulk of Ocean City stores are aimed at the tourism market and not the year round market. Distinct Economic Drivers: It is expected that tourism will remain the primary industry for the Town of Ocean City and its Sustainable Communities Area in the downtown district. A number of outside influences, such as weather and the labor market, will affect the industry. Broadband access is not yet available in Ocean City but has been discussed as a future item on the eastern shore of Maryland. In terms of work increasing skills and employment, there are a number of activities currently in place. There are a number of training facilities in the eastern shore that have partnered with Ocean City businesses. For example, the University of Maryland Eastern Shore and the local Wor-Wic Community College each have a hotel management courses and culinary schools well suited to address the need for skilled workers in Ocean City hotels and restaurants. Salisbury University is only 30 miles from Ocean City and many if its students and graduates find work in Ocean City. The Ocean City Chamber of Commerce holds its spring Job Fair which has become a major hiring source for local Ocean City businesses. Ocean City has historically had very high unemployment rates in the winter seasons, but such rates improve with the summer tourism season. The Ocean City economy has expanded over the past years as the shoulder season has grown. Much of this growth in the shoulder seasons is a result of the OC Convention Center business and large increase in the areas golf industry. It is expected the stronger should season business to expand which will help reduce the high level of unemployment in the off-season periods.

The Sustainable Community Area includes the Main Street Program area and is a significant way considered the traditional and historic portion of Ocean City. The Ocean City Boardwalk aligns along the Eastern edge of the Sustainable Community Area where the majority of retail commercial and amusement district exists. Also within this area is the Ocean City Lifesaver Station Museum which functions as a historical society as well. Implementing the Main Street Program along with updating the Design Guidelines as part of the Action Plan intends to increase the sense of place that exists in the sustainable community Area. Consideration is being given to creating an Historic District with walking tours and plaques to identify the historic elements in the area. Finally, a way finding system for pedestrians is contemplated as a method to further define the cultural, historic and economic resources in the community.

Worcester County/State of Maryland could assist in providing transportation to the job market office. Many of the businesses in Ocean City need labor only during the summer months as this is a coastal resort community that thrives off tourism. The goal of everyone involved in improving our market is to fill every job opening and find housing to keep employees in or near their jobs. A goal of ours is to increase the amount of quality employee housing. Unfortunately, the enforcement of housing standards by town staff determines that many employee housing situations are sub-standard and need upgrades before they can continue to be occupied. This can only be done through private investments, assisted by loans or grants from the local area and funded through the State agencies. Job assistance and training should be provided within the SC area by the State if local, potential employees are to compete for jobs. MD. Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation - (http://www.dllr.state.md.us/employment/) Veterans: The Maryland Employment Service administers the Local Veterans Employment Representative (LVER) and Disabled Veterans Outreach Program (DVOP) to provide services to veterans and eligible persons in the One-Stop Career Centers. Veterans are given priority when referred to job orders placed on Maryland Workforce Exchange. In addition to helping veterans find employment and training opportunities, DVOP/LVER staff provides vocational guidance, referral to supportive services and case management services to veterans with significant barriers to employment. Maryland's One-Stop Career Centers: The One-Stop Job Market in Salisbury, Maryland serves Somerset, Wicomico, and Worcester counties. The Job Market features an array of employment and training services for job seekers and businesses, providing a broad range of workforce development resources and information in one location. We strive to make every customer's experience productive and rewarding by focusing on their needs and providing the right blend of services to ensure success. Foreign Workers: Foreign labor could be assisted with finding job openings by asking employers to list their jobs at City Hall and other town facilities, as well as at OCDC and on our website. The Worcester County Economic Development Department can provide access to jobs through offering job placement seminars where applicants can search openings in the local area, much like the jobs fair Ocean City has each year at the Convention Center. The Social Security Administration provides their services to issue social security numbers to non-resident foreign workers each summer through a cooperative effort with the Ocean City government whereby Social Security staff set-up office in City Hall on 3rd Street, within the SC area, to allow these workers to apply for and obtain numbers that are a requirement for receiving a paycheck from American employers. The small number of hours that the Social Security Administration has allowed for their Ocean City operation has proven to be insufficient (Friday mornings from 8:00 A.M. 11:00 A.M.). This service needs to be expanded to more than one day per week. Potential foreign workers continually arrive at City Hall expecting to apply for their social security numbers, only to be turned away and told to return the following Friday.

The OCDC will also be partnering with area business and property owners to continue its faade improvement program, Green Building Initiatives Program, Business Assistance Program and other OCDC programs. As previously mentioned, the OCDC recognizes the need to partner with the private sector to bring about successful redevelopment. And it also realizes that such actions will require the OCDC to take an aggressive role in promoting this form of redevelopment.

recommended to look at. The Town of Ocean City and OCDC have researched various incentives. Due to the magnitude of this cost this issue will need further time. PHASING PLAN Realizing the complexities in implementing any Plan of Action, IWG divided the overall Downtown Village into three phases. All the recommendations proposed in this visioning document interconnect, thus implementing them in a sequential manner is critical to the overall success of a revitalized downtown. Refer to attached map labeled OCDC Future Initiatives. PHASE I IMPROVEMENTS East/West Corridors from Baltimore Avenue to the Boardwalk The challenge presented to IWG (as related to pedestrian traffic patterns) was to motivate pedestrian mobility from the beach and boardwalk to and from the bay front. The first logical step in obtaining a unified downtown core is the ability to tie the successful boardwalk development with the interior downtown blocks. Very little pedestrian traffic is directed towards activities in the downtown interior. Subsequently, in order to achieve a more balanced circulation pattern, safe, inviting and friendly pedestrian corridors need to be designed. To date three street segments have been converted from vehicular streets to pedestrian/semi-pedestrian streets only: Somerset Plaza (Baltimore Avenue to the Boardwalk) South 1st Street (Baltimore Avenue to the Boardwalk) South Division Street (Philadelphia Avenue to the Bay) Although is it very challenging to create these pedestrian corridors, they can play a major role in the revitalization of downtown Ocean City. The Town of Ocean City and OCDC should evaluate other potential pedestrian corridors as they arise. In addition, certain streets will require wider sidewalks to accommodate increased pedestrian movements, particularly for safety issues. Parking Facility/Multi-model Transit Station Since the 1970s there have been a number of studies related to downtown Ocean City. Each study has recommended the construction of a parking facility. The IWG report believes that in order to achieve a balanced pedestrian circulation pattern and address some of the congestion issues, that a parking facility be constructed along the interior core of the downtown area. The site which would have the greatest impact on circulation but the least impact on existing businesses are the two blocks bordered by Baltimore Avenue (on the east), S. Division Street (on the south), Philadelphia Avenue (on the west) and Wicomico Street (on the north). This combination of properties lies strategically near the south end of the downtown area and in the middle of the bay and boardwalk. In addition, the parking facility can incorporate a new multi-model station, replacing the existing transit station on S. Division Street. A new multi-model station could house the existing transit functions, a stop for bicycles, a park and ride destination as well as a ticket outlet for a potential water transportation system operating parallel to the bayside. The parking facilitys design should be compatible with surrounding architecture and reinforce the new Downtown Village theme. The facility will have to be designed around and incorporate the existing water tower. As mentioned earlier in this phase, some modifications to vehicular circulation will need to be made. Financing the parking facility will be the greatest challenge. Most facilities are financed through public means. These facilities are not usually required to make a profit. Most are publicly financed through tax exempt bond issues or revenue bonds. More recently however, are facilities financed with some infusion of
Page 45 of 53

private funds. Outsourcing of facility development allows the private sector turnkey delivery of a facility, on a public site, within a structured agreement, typically a leaseback. Lenders prefer locations that offer a mix of monthly and transient revenue. The proposed sites proximity to the boardwalk and amusement areas, coupled with the elimination of a portion of metered spaces in the pedestrian corridors and proposed facility location, provide the demand counts to help justify its use. Close proximity to future developable sites also is advantageous. Another strategy to consider when looking at financing alternatives is seeking a new financing vehicle, which includes more amenities than just a parking facility. For example, the facility could incorporate some retail on the first level. High turnover storefronts such as dry cleaners, coffee shops, and ATM machines would be beneficial. These types of services are more for convenience. Most are small spaces, and premium rents can be justified because theyre going to benefit from the pedestrian traffic. A local cost-sharing program might also be developed with local businesses that would include parking packages for employees working in nearby businesses. Furthermore, by incorporating a multi-model facility, the project becomes eligible for federal funding. Federal grants can help buy down the capital cost of the parking facility, making the complex more financially feasible. Pedestrian Plan As an extension of the Inlet Park is the wrap-around boardwalk along the inlet. The boardwalk along the inlet should extend from the edge of the proposed Inlet Park and wrap around to the bayside following the waterside as much as possible until the connection to the bayside boardwalk at 2nd Street. It is recognized the U. S. Coast Guard station can present an obstacle given homeland security issues with extending this boardwalk through this property. However, easements for this proposed boardwalk should be pursued on other properties as much as possible. Specialty Retail Providing parking in the interior core of the downtown area will have a significant impact in redistributing the circulation pattern throughout the area. However, commercial opportunities are created when a parking facility is constructed from the high amount of pedestrian traffic that will be generated. Specialty retail and convenience goods are natural tenants to locate near parking facilities. As mentioned earlier in the report, convenience goods would be ideal tenants as part of a parking facility. The IWG team noticed however, that very few specialty shops existed in the downtown core area (antique shops, apparel, furnishings etc.). As part of an overall strategy to redevelop the core area a Specialty Retail Village concept should be designed in the interior core between Baltimore Avenue and Philadelphia Avenue from the Inlet to N. Division Street. This area, along with the parking facility will set the tone for the rest of the district as it relates to the buildings architectural design. An important component to the special retail concentration is the inclusion of adequate outdoor shopping, dining and quality entertainment spaces. The large open public spaces are designed wide enough so that service vehicles could access the interior spaces. This type of design allows people to not only shop by strolling but also attracts people who want to just watch the people (a similar concept to the boardwalk). The open outdoor spaces would allow other public uses to occur, such as art exhibits and musical entertainers. An interesting place happens when a person experiences a place where they can be stimulated by sight, by smell, and by sound. The vision described above will only happen if there is a commitment to make it happen. The easiest way to realize this vision is by starting with one of the interior blocks and move outwards. The IWG team suggested that the city, through the DVA (OCDC), implement a two-step process in selecting a concept and development team for the Specialty Retail Village. The first step would be a Request for Development Qualifications followed by a Request for Proposals. Following OCDC and city council selection of the developer, city staff would then negotiate terms and conditions for implementation. Using this specialty retail concentration as an initial financing tool, the concept can begin small and evolve into one of the most desirable areas in Ocean City.

East/West Corridor Enhancements from Baltimore Avenue to Philadelphia Avenue While making the necessary improvements (pedestrian crosswalks and pedestrian improvements) along Baltimore and Philadelphia Avenues, as well as during the design of the Specialty Retail blocks, careful consideration will need to be made as to the design of the east/west corridors between Baltimore Avenue and Philadelphia Avenue. South Division Street could become a transit only thoroughfare, however, it acts as a strong pedestrian link between the boardwalk and bayside. This will be one of the more popular pedestrian routes with the parking facility/transit station situated along S. Division Street. This proposed project will only occur with the cooperation of the property owners along S. Division Street east of Baltimore Avenue. The remaining east/west streets from Wicomico Street to N. Division Street will all be open to vehicular traffic, however, should include similar pedestrian amenities to those corridors east of Baltimore Avenue. These streets will play an important role with respect to east/west circulation and compliment the proposed Specialty Retail block(s) with respect to access and parking. Several side streets could be redesigned to allow for wider sidewalks and angled parking. The remaining east/west streets between Baltimore and Philadelphia Avenues, from N. Division Street to 3rd Street could also contain pedestrian enhancements. These streets will preserve their width and current parking space allotments. East/west streets north of 3rd Street should be reviewed for increased opportunities to provide wider sidewalks and improved pedestrian amenities. Baltimore Avenue Enhancements Similar to Philadelphia Avenue, Baltimore Avenue north of North Division Street necessitates an improved look. Currently, Baltimore Avenue serves as Ocean Citys Main Street. In 1993, the southern portion of Baltimore Avenue (up to South 2nd Street) was completely renovated with upgraded underground utilities, landscaping, decorative paving and street furniture. Similar to the Philadelphia Avenue evaluation, Baltimore Avenue should also be analyzed to the most appropriate use of traffic lanes and parking. During the IWG report it was stated that many residents and business owners expressed a desire to see parking made available again along Baltimore Avenue. While IWG concurred with this request, it would be in the best interest of the city to have the comprehensive transportation analysis completed prior to finalizing these plan specifics. The City will be reviewing options for the area of public right of way that is located in significant sections of this street north of North Division Street. PHASE II IMPROVMENTS Completion of East/West Corridor Enhancements to the Bayside The final phase of the east/west corridor enhancements takes the pedestrian improvements from Philadelphia Avenue all the way to the bayside. This includes all of the streets from 3rd Street to S. Division Street. All of these streets will preserve their widths as well as their existing parking spaces. The pedestrian enhancements for these remaining streets will be consistent with the rest of the previously improved streets. Future Developable Site Evaluation Up to this phase the recommendations made toward realizing a more active interior downtown core centered on small-to-medium size public/private sector investments. This approach is logical considering the seasonal challenges and unproven market for a large-scale investment project. Having achieved success in phases I and II, the next natural evolution is the ability to attract the high-profile anchors, such as an IMAX theater, new hotel anchor or museum. Towards this goal, the Town of Ocean City and OCDC must identify potential developable sites that offer prospective projects a location with easy access, high visibility, and land availability. Several obvious parcels rise to the top of the list including the former Cropper Concrete location which offers long term possibilities. The OCDC and Town of Ocean City should develop a comprehensive strategy in packaging these properties as potential public/private ventures.

Proposed projects to pursue in future: Business Assistance Program The OCDC should continue its successful commercial faade program which has improved the overall appearance of the downtown area. In addition, such faade applicants will be required to adhere to the downtown design standards for such renovation work. A new business assistance program has been started by the OCDC to provide financial assistance to new and expanding businesses in the downtown area. Other business assistance programs may be considered in the future. Land Acquisition/Landbanking The consolidation and assembly of land is proposed to begin the physical transformation of the downtown area. The recommended location(s) of this land assembly is an interior block that is west of Baltimore Avenue and east of Philadelphia Avenue; however the OCDC should be flexible to reviewing other properties that are available for other redevelopment endeavors. The interior area project is planned as a mixed commercial/residential use development with a single anchor tenant (i.e., a high density residential or hotel with limited convention facilities that would bring people to and have them stay in the area for a period of time). The project should meet recommended architectural style/theme standards and promote a strong pedestrian orientation. The property should contain limited onsite parking. This will allow for compact development while simultaneously limiting building height. Parking should be provided via a fee process within the anticipated Downtown public parking facility. An Incentive Program should be created that includes recommended development guidelines as well as financial incentives to encourage redevelopment. Downtown Parking Facility Ocean City's mass transit system provides an excellent service and will remain an important ingredient in bringing people to the Downtown area. In fact, due to the success of the Citys bus service, the use of the parking/transit center at South Division Street has expanded significantly and needs to be replaced with a larger facility. A larger facility with accompanying service lanes is necessary at the earliest possible time. The center also handles buses from the Countys bus system. A major obstacle for redevelopment of the downtown is the lack of parking. Parking should be used as a redevelopment strategy to allow new and existing properties to redevelop and utilize this intermodal facility. A multi-level parking deck should be constructed in the downtown area and the parking structure should be tied into a new intermodal transit station. It is imperative that the parking structure be attractive and emphasizes the quality of the redevelopment efforts. First floor retail or other active use should be considered to provide additional street life to South Baltimore Avenue and Worcester Street. Inlet Boardwalk Connection In order to physically tie the bayside properties and the Boardwalk together, an inlet boardwalk will need to be constructed. This connection will run westward from the present Citys Inlet boardwalk and then continue northward to link to the Philadelphia Avenues 14 feet wide boardwalk constructed on the west side of the street. The long term goal is a connected boardwalk along the waterfront, extending northwards to 4th Street. Route 50 Bridge improvements Presently, the Route 50 Bridge contains limited space for pedestrians, bicyclists, and fishermen. To correct this situation, several options have been discussed ranging from renovations of the existing bridge to the construction of a new bridge. The decision as to this bridge issue will be determined in the near future although the actual construction/renovation will be many years away from occurring. Downtown Public Arts Program Public art is a major component in creating a citys visual image. Public art is often the element that can help in making a city memorable and provides it significance for succeeding generations. The OCDC recognizes the importance of public art as a means of enhancing the quality of life in the community and as a means of providing professional opportunities to local and regional visual artists. The OCDC has established a committee to promote and sponsor various types of
Page 48 of 53
SC Application - FY 2012
DRAFT
public artwork for the Downtown area. This committee includes representatives from the Downtown Association, Beautification Committee, and the Art League of Ocean City. Historic Preservation Program Ocean City contains several structures and sites that have interest from a historic and architectural viewpoint. The preservation and enhancement of such places can be a boom for redeveloping the Downtown area. However, without any incentives to fit these structures into the future plans for the Downtown area, many will continue to deteriorate and be demolished. Besides direct preservation of such structures, the OCDC will provide educational materials to promote the preservation efforts for specific structures. Such efforts can include a historic marker program and walking tour maps. Residential Enhancement Program There are number of residential buildings in downtown Ocean City that could be provided with incentives for renovation as with the residential Faade Program. In particular, the St. Louis Avenue area, between North Division Street and 1st Street presents an opportunity that is unique in the Downtown area. This area possesses a number of quaint homes that can be rehabilitated and help create another interesting place in the Downtown area. Also, additional year round housing opportunities in the downtown area should be promoted to increase the number of residents and help the local year round restaurants and retail stores. OCDC Fence Program Consistent with its downtown design standards, the OCDC will provide financial assistance to commercial and residential property owners desiring to install new fencing on the street sides or front yards of their properties. Such fencing can be used as an effective screening method for parking areas for commercial uses as well as an attractive and traditional element for residential properties. Employee Housing This item has been a major issue for the many years. Although, newer hotels and service related businesses are constructed, the number of employee housing units is decreasing. The OCDC supports efforts to improve, rehabilitate, and construct new units reserved for employee housing. Such housing generally does not require much parking and can be effectively integrated into mixed-use developments. Future Large Site Redevelopment There are several large scale sites that can be utilized for future redevelopment in the downtown area. Two potential sites are the present Coast Guard Station, south of Worcester Street on the Bayside, and the Cropper Property, which was used as a concrete plant and located on the Bayside, north of N. Division Street, but is now available for redevelopment. Both properties represent potentials to locate larger attractions to the area, such as an aquarium or IMAX Theatre, as well as, compact mixed-use development. Of course, the Coast Guard site would be problematic to redevelop given the need for such a facility near the inlet area. The Cropper property could be impacted by the Route 50 Bridge configuration. Either type of project will need to comply with the general guidelines, which the OCDC promotes. Other larger street sites can be included as land assemblage becomes practical and necessary. Baltimore Avenue street improvements This important corridor should be provided comprehensive street improvements between North Division Street and 15th Street. The additional public right of way may be useful to improve portions of this street. St. Louis Avenue Improvements Future streetscaping along St. Louis Avenue north of N. Division Street will assist in creating a more pleasing walking environment. Such improvements should consist of improved pedestrian amenities, improved intersections, and undergrounding of utilities. This project is currently in the construction process over a three year period. Street enhancements Consistent with the IWG Plan of Action, various downtown streets should be provided various improvements. Some of these improvements may include changes to the traffic flow, but many should improve the pedestrian amenities with special reference to wider sidewalks. Alleyway improvements As already referenced alleys play a significant role in downtown Ocean City. Provisions should be made to improve alleys when necessary as well as promoting alleys in larger projects. Such alleys can be improved to provide additional stormwater management techniques.

Water taxi consistent with the original IWG Plan of Action a water taxi system can be included into the downtown transportation plans to provide an interesting method for visitors and residents to travel to various destination points. Wayfinding signage program Fitting into the various redevelopment strategy of identifying important points of interest in downtown is the need to direct people to such points. A wayfinding signage program can be used for vehicular and pedestrians to direct and highlight various destinations to visit. Interactive water display Although not yet identified for a specific suitable site, an interactive water display should be considered to attract people. Improved entranceway to inlet parking lot Recognizing the large number of vehicles visiting the Inlet Parking Lot, it should be provided with a more appealing look. This project could be combined with improvements to the Inlet Park which is adjacent to this entrance. Special events The Town of Ocean City and OCDC should continue to promote special events in downtown Ocean City. Some of these special events could be directly provided by the OCDC or through sponsorship assistance. Building demolition program There are several buildings that are severely dilapidated in downtown and could require demolition. The State of Maryland has a program for providing financial assistance to such severe structures. These buildings should be reviewed on a case by case basis working with the affected property owner and Town of Ocean City. Marketing The OCDC will pursue strategies to promote downtown Ocean City as well as the OCDCs program and successes. Such marketing may consist of press releases, videos, City publications, local radio and television resources, area publications, and OCDC newsletters. Design Standards Work with Town of Ocean City to create design standards for other areas of the Town. Community Partners Within Ocean City there is a unique networking of six organizations that make up the Partners Group. This loosely set up organization was established three years ago and is a great means of communicating on various issues affecting Ocean City. The OCDC is the newest member of this organization and works very closely with each of the other five Partner organizations. The Partners Group consists of the following organizations: Hotel Motel Restaurant Association, Inc. Ocean City Chamber of Commerce Downtown Association Economic Development Council The OCDC also has one ex-officio member of each of these organizations on its Board of Directors. Such members are permitted pursuant to the OCDC by-laws. The OCDC receives valuable input on its redevelopment program from each of these members. The OCDC has provided at least one presentation on its redevelopment program to these organizations and keeps in touch with each organization on a regular basis. The Economic Development Council sponsors meetings on a regular basis whereby the organizations provide an update to each other, too. The Partners Group will play an integral part in our redevelopment program in terms of policy formulation as well as support of our strategies. The OCDC will need to partner with the Town of Ocean City on the redevelopment program for this area. The OCDC will also require the financial assistance of the City on specific projects, too. Since the creation of the OCDC, this organization has had a strong relationship with the City. The Citys Planning and

Community Development Director is the appointed contact between the City and OCDC and he attends our Board meetings. He also works closely with the OCDC Executive Director on several projects. The OCDC provides various information to the City on a regular basis as well as provides a quarterly report of its activities to the Mayor and City Council. The most important partnership for the OCDC is to work with the area business owners, property owners, and residents. Other important organizations which the OCDC has partnered with include the UMES/Rural Development Center, Salisbury University, the Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore, the Art League of Ocean City, Patrick Bennett Foundation, and Worcester County Arts Council. The OCDC will also be partnering with area business and property owners to continue its faade improvement program, if funded by the State. As previously mentioned, the OCDC recognizes the need to partner with the private sector to bring about successful redevelopment. And it also realizes that such actions will require the OCDC to take an aggressive role in promoting this form of redevelopment. Recommended Action Items The following projects are recommended planning initiatives followed by a three-phase plan of action: Planning Initiatives Phase I Develop plan and initiate evaluation of streets requiring wider sidewalks in downtown Plan for future land acquisition activities Design wayfinding signage program Evaluate appropriate business assistance programs Identify buildings and programs to preserve designated historic buildings Identify Buildings for renovations Develop marketing strategies Work with Town to create design standards for other areas of city, including the Boardwalk.
