OCEAN CITY — Resort officials this week got a first look at renewed plans to renovate the Ocean City Fire Department headquarters on 15th Street along with a proposed plan to relocate the existing fire station at 74th Street to the parking lot of the Public Safety Building on 65th Street.
Citing a variety of factors, including a change in the leadership of the Ocean City Volunteer Fire Company, the planned removal of the existing water tower at 15th Street and the proposed expansion of the 15th Street water plant, Ocean City officials earlier this year tabled any plans to renovate and expand the existing headquarters.
With many of those issues resolved, City Engineer Terry McGean along with Fire Chief Chris Larmore came back before the Mayor and Council on Tuesday to present a modified plan for the renovation of the 15th Street headquarters, along with an ambitious plan to relocate the 74th Street fire station to the parking lot of the Public Safety Building at 65th Street in the future.

Stupid idea there is always a lot of congestion around 65th street because of the RT90 bridge. To close to the bridge to give traffic a chance to thin out. But hey its OC not the brightest group of goobers.
hey tool bag.in case you didn't know, the traffic is bad all over town.they have outgrown the existing building on 74th.st.the entire property on 74th st. has been outgrown.the new plan will give the fire/ems division more room for personell.maybe your just observing the traffic congestion on your way back to Baltimore.
Oh yes that's right OC has grown so much since the last fire station was built. NOT!
