OCEAN CITY – The Ocean City Development Corporation (OCDC) received the Mayor and Council’s blessing to apply for grants to fund further downtown revitalization, Phase III of decorative lighting on St. Louis Avenue and demolition of the Model Block downtown.
OCDC Executive Director Glenn Irwin came before the council Monday requesting support for several grant applications starting with State Community Legacy Program funding in the amount of about $209,500 for two revitalization projects.
The first project is the OCDC Façade Improvement Program for buildings between the Inlet and 17th Street, which is the designated Sustainable Communities Area, in total of $75,000.

The Boardwalk is looking horrible. Not the shops but all those benches everywhere. They are blocking smooth pedestrian flow. The skateboarders are out of control as well. Whomever came up with the idea to allow skateboarding on public areas is a first class fool.
Money would be better spent to get flooding under control in the south end of the island. The old buildings and historical sites do not need to be leveled for progress.
