Meeting Minutes
February 24, 2015

1. Call to Order: The meeting was called to order at 4:00 p.m. at Northside Park. Present
were Councilman Dennis Dare, Councilman Wayne Hartman, Councilman Lloyd Martin,
Kate Gaddis, Jennie, Knapp, Frank Miller, Lisa Mitchell and Susan Petito. Guests
included Zack Hoopes and Shawn Soper. Tina Quick was also in attendance.

2. Golf Course Spray Irrigation Update: Susan Petito reported that the RFPs for irrigation
and project management services were sent out and several qualified proposals were
received. We are ready to make a selection on the consultant, however, we are waiting
on the Countys go ahead, as their funding has not yet been secured. Joe Perry is hopeful
to have more information from the County in March as its critical to get the design and
bid specification started. He has been doing extensive research and making site visits on
irrigation products, piping technologies, etc., so we are ready to make those decisions
when the consultation services are awarded. This item, as well as other golf-related items
will be scheduled for the March 10th agenda.
3. Dolphin Statue Update: Dennis Dare reported that the dedication for the dolphin statue,
slated for installation at the tennis center entrance, is scheduled for April 14th. Susan
advised the tennis building has been reserved for the reception. Susan noted that Glenn
Irwin and the OCDC have been very proactive and cooperative, acknowledging staff
concerns and acting as the liaison between the Art Committee and the Town staff. The
future development of a plaza around the statue will require some sidewalk demolition
and modifications to the existing steps and railings at the tennis center, as well as a
review of property lines and approvals for site usage.
4. City-wide Park and Facility Master Plan: Dennis introduced funding for Bayside Park,
Sunset Park and Northside Park building improvements as a top priority for the Council.
Though he originally suggested looking at these collectively, after much discussion, it
was determined that building maintenance and repair projects at Northside Park should be
reviewed separately as they are not development projects. The Committee determined
that it was necessary, prior to jumping into individual park development, to look at the
entire parks system in the Town as a whole and prepare a master plan of amenities and
development. From there, individual projects could be reviewed and funded. This will be
discussed during the Strategic Planning process. In the meantime, Susan will begin
working on an action plan for the project.
5. Other Business Recreation and Parks:
Kate Gaddis reported that the St. Patricks soccer tournament series was underway
and that youth participation is down about 10% this year. Initial findings indicate the
mid-age youth teams are spending their resources participating in college showcase
tournaments for recruitment exposure, so they arent trending to fun tournaments.
We may consider moving the youth tournaments to a different weekend that doesnt

compete with other showcase tournaments, which is currently the case. Adult
participation in the tournament is strong and continues to grow.

Kate advised the sportsmanship ceremony has been rescheduled for March 4th at 6
p.m., which will honor volunteers and people who have displayed exceptional
sportsmanship.

Ann Brent submitted her resignation yesterday effective immediately, which will
necessitate changes to the seniors division. Kate will be planning a retirement party
to honor and recognize Anns service.

6. Private Event Application Review:

Sunday Morning Church Service during Springfest: Dennis was concerned about
safety and security since we dont allow people on the grounds until we open at 10
a.m. Frank said this can be controlled with staff and OCPD. Staff are usually on site
between 6-7 a.m. and they may request all vehicles be off the grounds earlier than 9
p.m. The event was approved to go to Council.

Busking for Mental Health: The organization wants to use the Caroline Street stage
to raise money for the Jesse Klump Memorial Fund. They may request a non-profit
consideration for the $75 per hour fee to use the stage since fund raising efforts may
not be beneficial if the organization has to pay this fee. Dennis is concerned about
the musicians collecting money on the beach. Wayne is concerned about the bad
perception this may set especially in light of the boardwalk entertainment situation. It
was suggested that the organization charge admission or have 1 or 2 designated
donation spaces as opposed to walking through the crowd to panhandle for donations.
Lisa will contact the organization to present this option.

7. Update on Prime Timers Week (50+ Event in October): Frank reminded the Committee
members that this concept started with an email to City Council members from a
concerned resident stating the city doesnt have events to attract older visitors or provide
entertainment for the same. Frank introduced the OC MD Boomerang Club, which
would be scheduled weekdays with the initial event October 12th 15th. It would target
people in the 50-69 age group (Baby Boomers) who prefer to stay active, travel and may
prefer to visit the beach during the quieter post-season. Participants would receive plastic
membership cards that would allow them to receive discounts, specials offers, and access
to promotional packages, etc. at participating businesses that may include lodging,
restaurants, golf, bowling, fishing, airplane rides, etc. The plan is to grow the
promotional event over the coming years, add secondary event attractions and ultimately
generate revenue and lodging for businesses during weekdays. Frank plans to ask the
Chamber of Commerce and HMRA for assistance in package and promotion
development. Wayne suggested incorporating themed nights on the boardwalk that
would involve participants dressing in formal or period attire. Frank said he would
research this option. It was also discussed that this promotional event could be activated
and offered on other weekdays as business needs are established.

8. Private Event Return on Investment Formula Discussion: Frank is developing a


spreadsheet to calculate return on investments for private events. One of the calculations
on the spreadsheet is a modified version of a formula Martha Bennett created to look at
tax revenue from convention center-based business. Frank stated the private event
application would need to be modified to get information necessary to make this work.
Another calculation on the spreadsheet uses feedback from Town departments to gauge
more subjective ROI topics. Jennie and Wayne questioned the amount time involved for
each department to collect this data and Frank said this current iteration would take an
additional 10-15 minutes to complete over and above the existing Private Event
Application review process. Dennis was concerned about the economic impact and
expense for the city to hold private events and wants to ensure the return is justified. He
believes the spreadsheet is beneficial for City Council, but it may require Frank and Lisa
as the Special Events Department to provide expert opinion on the subjective topics
rather than basing answers off of Department feedback to achieve usable data. This task
will continue to be refined.

9. Other Business Special Events: No other business was presented for discussion.

10. Closed Session: The Committee moved to closed session at 5:30 p.m.

11. Adjournment: The meeting adjourned at 6:10 p.m.


12. The next meeting is scheduled for March 10th, 2015 at 3:30 p.m. at Northside Park.

Showell Elementary School
Boardwalk Walk

To whom it may concern,


The first graders at Showell Elementary School have been participating in an annual boardwalk walk
for almost 15 years now. The students must earn their trip to the boardwalk by walking 10 miles at
school during Physical Education and recess time. This trip is meant to be a reward for setting goals and
exercising their bodies. In the past, the trip had been a free and fun activity for the students to look
forward to. This year, I have been made aware of a new fee regarding the no parking barricades we
need for our busses. I am asking that you would waive this fee for our school trip so that we can
continue to provide a free and fun trip for our first graders at Showell Elementary. Thank you for your
time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Alyson Brabitz

4 on 4 at the Shore
February 20, 2015

ISSUE(S):

Request approval for a new event, 4 on 4 at the Shore, to take


place on the beach Saturday, June 6 from 10am-8pm.

SUMMARY:

This is a small-sided lacrosse tournament that will take place on a


maximum of ten 25 yard x 35 yard beach courts for participants
aged 8 to adult. The event uses practice lacrosse balls, which are
softer and lighter than standard lacrosse balls. They are made
specifically for indoor training, safer play and slower speeds. A
percentage of the proceeds made from this event will go to local
lacrosse programs in and around Ocean City.
The applicant requested to have four (4) rows of playing fields
north to south on the beach between Somerset and Dorchester
Streets; two (2) rows with two (2) fields east to west and two (2)
rows with three (3) fields east to west. However, the Recreation &
Parks Committee is concerned with the two (2) westernmost fields
being too close to the Boardwalk and requests the applicant move
them northeast to fall in line with the other four (4) fields. This
would change their event site size from two (2) beach blocks to
three (3) beach blocks.
Because of the Ocean City Beach Patrols (OCBP) pre-employment
physical skills evaluation, scheduled to take place on the beach at
Dorchester Street on June 6, and request to make sure there is no
hindrance with OCBP emergency access to the beach at Dorchester
Street, OCBP requests the event move north of Talbot Street.
Public Works will provide additional trash cans and Broyhill
dumpsters within the event site.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Potential revenue to the Town is $1,229.90, representing $925.00


in Private Event Fees and $304.90 in Town Asset and Support Fees.

RECOMMENDATION:

Approve the event as presented.

Staff Comments
Recreation & Parks
At first glance no concerns and no tasks for Recreation and Parks. Please note, however, the Town of Ocean
City is a bargain for tournaments on the beach and this event states that a portion of the tournament
proceeds will benefit local lacrosse programs throughout Maryland. Would like to see some of that money
directly locally, either to our local recreation and parks department programs, to local recreationally based
club teams (beach and coastal) and/or towards the Stephen Decatur High School lacrosse teams, or a
scholarship. The event organizer was contacted and stated this organization would love to give back to the
local programs in and around Ocean City. For past tournaments they have used volunteers from those
programs for labor and staff throughout the weekend. Ive forwarded his information to Susan Petito to follow
up.
Beach Patrol
Its imperative the event not interfere with the normal patrolling of the beach for safety. The event must setup at least 30-feet from the easternmost edge of the Boardwalk/concrete pad to allow OCBP vehicles to
traverse the beach. The event organizer must also establish east/west lanes so OCBP may move from the back
of the beach to the waters edge. The easternmost field should allow for a buffer zone between the game play
and those beach patrons not affiliated with the event, so an out of bounds ball does not strike an unsuspecting
person. The event organizer must take responsibility to keep these areas open and that their spectators do
not set up in these areas. They should set up the southernmost field north of the Dorchester Street Beach
Access so they do not interfere with OCBP emergency beach access. Lastly, if OCBP clears the beach for
-2-

lightning, the playing area must also be cleared until OCBP allows for a safe return to the beach. The event
cannot span the beach at Dorchester Street for two (2) reasons. One (1), it will affect beach access for beach
patrol and two (2), pre-employment physical skills evaluation is to take place on the beach next to the
Boardwalk at Dorchester Street on the same day as this proposed event. Request the event move the entire
set-up north of Talbot Street. The event will still have plenty of space and will not cause any issues. The event
organizer was contacted and stated started this event on the beach at Talbot Street and going north is not an
issue.
Risk Management
Requires insurance coverage to be provided and a certificate naming TOC as additional insured. Hold harmless
agreement has been signed.
Police
The application references loading/unloading at Dorchester Street. Must avoid blocking OCBPs access to the
Boardwalk/beach from Dorchester Street. Application makes mention of the possibility of using off-duty
police officers for this event, which may not be possible through the agency, due to manpower needs during
the summer months. The event organizers are welcome to contact Ms. Karin Scott to request secondary
employment through our agency, but it may not be approved. Outside security may be necessary if deemed
needed by the event organizers.
Public Works
Will provide the event organizer with trash cans throughout the event footprint along with an 8-yard Broyhill
dumpster to be switched out every evening. The event organizer should provide their own trash bags as
needed for their event. If the event organizer contracts for several port-o-lets, they need to provide the exact
location. Please note the event organizer did not ask for any parking passes for this event. Other than what is
noted, no issues with granting approval of this event.
Transportation, Tourism, Fire Marshal, Convention Center, and Emergency Services

Staff Comments
Recreation & Parks
Parks was concerned with two (2) of the proposed dates May 2-3 and October 3-4. Parks does not install
volleyball nets on the beach until after Public Works removes the sand fencing and grades the beach. It is
usually the middle of May before Parks can place the beach volleyball nets. Because of this, Parks
recommends the May 2-3 event not be allowed. The event organizer understands and will comply. Also,
Parks removes the beach volleyball nets the Wednesday after Sunfest, and the day prior to the beginning of
Winterfest set-up, which normally takes place the first Thursday in October. To wait until after the weekend
of October 3-4 to remove the beach volleyball nets would require Parks to pull workers off Winterfest set-up.
Because of this, Parks recommends the October 3-4 event not be allowed. The event organizer understands
and asked if they could still hold their October 3-4 event, if they provide all materials, requiring no assets or
support from Parks. Parks agreed, stating they will remove the nets prior to Oct. 3-4, but the net poles will
remain. The event organizer may install their own nets on Town poles.
Beach Patrol
Beach Patrol stated the beach may not be wide enough north of 5 th Street, and the event organizer may need
to alter the set-up for each event. They continued, stating it is imperative the event not interfere with the
-2-

normal patrolling of the beach for safety. The event must set-up at least 30-feet from the easternmost edge
of the Boardwalk/concrete pad to allow OCBP vehicles to traverse the beach. The event organizer must also
establish east/west lanes so OCBP may move from the back of the beach to the waters edge. The
easternmost field should allow for a buffer zone between the game play and those beach patrons not
affiliated with the event, so an out of bounds ball does not strike an unsuspecting person. The event organizer
must take responsibility to keep these areas open and that their spectators do not set up in these areas.
Lastly, if OCBP clears the beach for lightning, the playing area must also be cleared until OCBP allows for a safe
return to the beach.
Risk Management
Risk Management requires insurance coverage to be purchased and a certificate naming TOC as additional
insured.
Public Works
Will provide 3-4 spaces in the 4th Street Lot.
Fire Marshal
Requires tent permits that must be obtained from their office.
Police, Transportation, Tourism, Convention Center, and Emergency Services
No comments or concerns.

Ocean City Surf Club

SUMMARY:

The Ocean City Surf Club (OCSC) celebrates the heritage and
future of our ocean community. Members will present an update
to the Mayor and Council, highlighting Club activities and
endeavors.
Firmly rooted in the rich surf history of Delaware, Maryland and
Virginia, the OCSC supports area youth through scholarships and
mentoring, and fosters respect for others, the ocean and our
fragile ecosystem. This non-profit, beach-centered organization
welcomes young, old, local or visitor. The OCSC makes an effort
to enhance our community through charity, service and proactive
initiatives.

OCEAN CITY SURF CLUB, INC


Local 501(c)3 Nonprofit Community Service
We would like to thank the Mayor and Council for their welcome almost 12 months
ago. 2014 turned into quite a ride. The humble desire to create a club focused on
community involvement was met with unforeseen local support.
The Ocean City Surf Club kicks off its 2nd year with great enthusiasm and stoke.
Our inaugural year was one of unexpected success. Over 400 joined our roll and, through
their memberships, we awarded several thousand dollars in scholarships, and supported
our environment in 6 beach and wetland cleanups with local partners the Town of OC,
MDBP and hundreds of volunteers and students. Our Leave Only Your Footprints and
surf etiquette programs were furthered in the OCBP Jr. Beach Patrol program, local
schools and on the bumpers of hundreds of vehicles. Our annual Longboard Weekend
grew to include, not only our legends party, the 14-year-old team challenge, but also the
return of a professional surf contest with prizes worth over $5,000. An unbelievable
first year.
Success brings challenges and opportunities. Foremost is the responsibility to our
members to continue our proactive community service. To build on our 1st year, we must
continue to utilize our resources effectively and remain focused on our mission and not
squander the generosity of our supporters. Our challenge is to engage our members,
families and supporters keeping our goals in focus. This year continued development is
essential to our success. We will offer $10k in scholarships, continue our environmental
efforts through beach awareness and add dune grass initiatives. Youth involvement will
be centered on an after-school activity class in the Stephen Decatur Middle School in
the fall, as well as junior beach patrol involvement in Ocean City and Assateague. With
continued support from our members and sponsors, 2015 will be bigger and better for the
beach lovers club.
Celebrating our ocean communitys rich surf history, exciting present and promising
future through service, education and charity,
ALOHA

Ordinance 2014-05 to Amend Substantial Improvement Definition
February 25, 2015

ISSUE(S):

Second reading of Ordinance 2014-05 to amend the definition of


Substantial Improvement

SUMMARY:

During the December 2, 2014 Planning Commission meeting,


members discussed the definition of Substantial Improvement and
voiced concerns that the accumulative criteria, or first alteration of
any structural member, would discourage home owners from
maintaining their property due to fear of increased costs to bring the
entire building into compliance with current Chapter 38 Flood Codes.
Currently, Substantial Improvement is defined that any
improvements to an existing building commence when the first
alteration of any structural part of the building is started. The
proposed verbiage changes the definition of substantial
improvement so that cumulative improvement costs begin 10 years
from the date of the proposed improvement permit application,
instead of from initial construction. This encourages redevelopment
and matches the FEMA model ordinance.
State of MD flood plain representatives are in favor of this change.
At the February 10 Work Session, Council voted to move forward
with an ordinance to change the definition, allowing homeowners the
luxury of maintaining and making minor property improvements,
such as siding, windows, roofing and small additions, without having
to elevate the structure to meet our current Flood Plain Regulations.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal impact to the Town.

RECOMMENDATION:

Ratify ordinance.

Substantial damage. Damage of any origin sustained by a structure whereby the cost of restoring
the structure to its before damaged condition would equal or exceed 50 percent of the market value of
the structure before the damage occurred.
Substantial improvement. Any reconstruction, rehabilitation, addition or other improvement of a
structure, the cost of which equals or exceeds 50 percent of the market value of the structure before
the start of construction of the improvement. This term includes structures which have incurred
substantial damage, regardless of the actual repair work performed. The term does not, however,
include either: any project for improvement of a structure to correct existing violations of state or local
health, sanitary or safety code specifications which have been identified by the local code enforcement
official and which are the minimum necessary to assure safe living conditions, or any alteration of a
historic structure, provided that the alteration will not preclude the structure's continued designation
as a historic structure. "Substantial improvement" is commenced when the first alteration of any
structural part of the building is begun; costs of incremental improvements to a building or structure
shall accumulate with respect to the 50 percent criterion which defines substantial improvement.
