Mayor's Update - Dec. 30

  • News
December 30, 2016 Dear Friends, I would like to wish you all a Happy New Year and may 2017 bring health, happiness and prosperity to you and your families. I want to thank the entire city team, City Council and all of the board and commission volunteers for their service in 2016. I would also like to thank all of the members of our community who participated in town hall meetings and shared thoughts, concerns and suggestions through the mail and email. We’re working hard to maintain Ocean City as a great place for all of us to live, work and play. This feedback is invaluable in our effort to improve all aspects of the city. I am excited to begin 2017 and look forward to presenting an updated capital plan to City Council and introducing a responsible budget. These plans are important in our efforts to improve infrastructure and maintain facilities and services without a burden on taxpayers. First Night, our family-friendly New Year’s Eve celebration, is tomorrow night, and if you have not purchased admission buttons for your family, there is still time to do so.  All-inclusive admission buttons ($20) can be purchased in person at the City Hall Welcome Center at Ninth Street and Asbury Avenue, the Roy Gillian Welcome Center on the Ninth Street causeway, and at Stainton’s (810 Asbury Avenue). Race-day registration for the First Day 5K Boardwalk Run
on New Year’s Day will be 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Ocean City Civic Center, just off the boardwalk at Sixth Street, and the race will start at 1 p.m. Event-day registration for the First Dip in the Atlantic Ocean  starts at noon at the Music Pier. The event benefits the HERO Campaign for Designated Drivers, and the plunge takes place at 2 p.m. Michele and I would like to extend best wishes to all of you for a happy 2017! Warm regards, Jay A. Gillian Mayor
