At a public meeting Thursday, Ocean City may put a final stamp on two major initiatives for the boardwalk and bay:
- A complete smoking ban for the Ocean City Boardwalk
- A plan to provide $2.6 million in financing to the developer of a marina, fueling station and restaurant on the bay at 10th Street
City Council will consider the second and potentially final readings on the two ordinances at a meeting scheduled for 7 p.m. June 26 at City Hall.
Both measures passed in unanimous votes on first reading.

The agenda also includes a resolution that would authorize the city to take beach easements by eminent domain from property owners who did not voluntarily sign them. The measure is required before the Army Corps of Engineers can start a beach replenishment project for Ocean City’s south end in the fall.
