Council backs county open-space application to preserve 10th Street Wharf marina parcels
Summary
Council approved Resolution 26-177 supporting a $2.5 million Cape May County Open Space application to preserve two parcels at 10th Street Wharf as marina property; one councilmember abstained due to a family connection disclosed on the record.
Ocean City City Council voted to adopt Resolution 26-177, which expresses municipal support for an application by 10th Street Wharf LLC to the Cape May County Open Space Advisory Board under the Maritime Preservation Program. City staff said the county application would, if approved, purchase or fund the preservation of two parcels and require that they remain as marina property. The request cited to the county was for $2.5 million.
Council discussion clarified that the resolution expresses local support and that the county could attach conditions; the city is not proposing operational changes as part of the application. During the roll call one council member abstained (citing a family member working for an affiliate of the owner); other members voted yes.
