It has come to our attention that Mayor Rick Meehan is using his official Ocean City Facebook page to sell real estate. Some have stated how unfair this is on other hard working real estate agents. Others have flat out stated this is completely unethical.
Aside from how I feel about it, what do you think?

Unfair and unethical.
Wahhhhhhhh,
I'm just guessing that it was posted on the [his] wrong page. Just an error.
Everybody that knows the Mayor knows that he also sells real estate.
I have no problem with it, but in this day and age, SOMEBODY will try to find damn near anything negative to say about anybody, especially those successful people.
No.not good Meehan?
Unethical, yes. He once was demoted from a sales manager position for steering all the customers to his girlfriend instead of spreading them around to all the agents.
...how many people are "friends" with the official facebook page of the OC mayor? 13-14 people?
Politicians don't see the difference between their duty as a public servant and private business. It's about the money, why not use the power that position gives you. Who cares about who gave you the power in the first place. I assume that this mayor will share his commissions with the folks at city hall, right?
Another political position holder , with blurred ethics, he just didn't think anyone would find out.
If he uses the title mayor then that FB should be strictly used for his position as mayor and issues related to government, tourism, promoting OC, etc. He could always do another FB Rick Meehan-Ocean City Realtor for real estate related issues. To co-mingle the 2 positions shows 1.-laziness and 2.-stupidity because you are giving people a reason to question actions.
Realtors being property investors that's unethical.
Meehan, we know someone told you about this , chime in
Oh Lord, God forbid if this was Salisbury, you'd already have them condemned and guilty......It's wrong period......
When Rick gets inside information as the Mayor, he sends it directly to his girlfriend Katie, or his BFF Peck Miller. This is no secret.
Unless Mayor Meehan has removed the items of which you speak, than someone wrongly brought it to your attention. Actually it surprises me "It has come to my attention". I expect it came to your attention via means of you scrolling Face Book for dirt on others.
Just wrong-poor judgement.
i dont see it on his page
Not for nothing but perhaps some of you don't know how to READ. It says MAYOR RICK MEEHAN. We didn't make this up but I can tell you that it has now been removed from his Facebook page. Fortunately we provided an official screen shot.
Joe many local cops ran businesses out of their cars and police office. I know of at least eight. It certainly is blurred line. You can only wear one hat a time. When you are off do as you want. Just my two cents.
I'm watching MNF right now and the C'mon Man segment just finished.
Timely for this simple faux pas.
Don't shine the light on yourself Mayor - C'mon Man!
The OC Mayorial election will have to be idiot proofed from now on.I watched those OC Neanderthals knuckle dragging their way to the polls.There should be more restrictions on who votes.
Probably just an honest Democrat mistake...
I can't believe I just wrote that!
But the police didn't use the agency's Facebook to get more business. Your comparing two different things.
It's his FB page. The city didn't pay for it so it's not really "Official."
More power to him. Whether you like him or not he will always be known as Mayor Meehan.
How much is it!
agree
It's as wrong as the school board turd who used school resources for a personal problem in a movie theater on a Sunday!
Now.. if the town of o.c. has any money invested in this property it's justified. If not some sort of sanctions are due!
Ok Hillary what ever you say.
Unfair...maybe unethical?
I'm guessing, speculating, hypothesizing, prognosticating his plan was to 'donate' his commission to the city coffers.
Can I get an 'Amen!'?
9:32. That means nothing.
unethical and a misuse of city property!
If he sells it, the money should be donated to all the homeless people in Ocean City. Sure it's wrong and he knows it just taking advantage of his situation.
The government (OC) at work again , crooked Hillary has had an effect on everyone , of course it's unethical .
This is the same mayor that lists new construction condo buildings for developers. I think that is a huge conflict of interest. He has made hundreds of thousands of dollars listing new condos such as Mariners Watch, Sailors Watch, Coral Seas & Bella Vista. The only thing is that he puts the listings in his girlfriends name so the public doesn't see it.

WRONG!! So what if he uses the title "Mayor." Ocean City has no claims to it. Jim Ireton used the title "Mayor Ireton" and it didnt' mean Jack Shit!
Now if hit said Town of Ocean City, Maryland Mayor Meehan with the city logo and maintained by the city then I think you might have a case. But since you don't you can just STFU!
A bunch of haters that have never achieved any success whatsoever, but support tRump who has used every trick in the book to get ahead.
9:02 - I'd love to know "every trick in the book" to get ahead.
(smh???)
I'm still waiting for the MSM to drop their dirt on Trump and there's only 50 days left!
Filing corporate bankruptcies to avoid paying small contractors. Casino bonds that lost money and resulted in class actions against tRump. Not that there is anything wrong with that, it is how you get rich in America.
Comparing Trump to Hillary I'll vote Trump every time!
