Tourism Commission Meeting Minutes
August 11, 2014


The following individuals were in attendance:
Commission Members , Tourism Commission Chair and Council Secretary Mary
Knight, Mayor Rick Meehan, Council Member Dennis Dare, Buck Mann, Chamber of
Commerce; Todd Ferrante, OCDC; G. Hale Harrison, HMRA; Greg Shockley, MTDB;
and Michael J ames, EDC. Staff members present were City Manager David Recor,
Donna Abbott, Tourism Director; Larry Noccolino, Convention Center Director; Frank
Miller, Special Events; Lisa Osman, Tourism. Also present were Melanie Pursel,
Chamber; and Susan J ones, HMRA. Media representatives present were Clara Vaughn,
Ocean City Today; and J oanne Shriner, Maryland Coast Dispatch.

Council Secretary and Tourism Commission Chair Mary Knight called the meeting to
order at 3 p.m.

Approval of Minutes
Council Member Dare made a motion to approve the minutes from the J une 12 meeting,
seconded by Buck Mann. The vote was unanimous.

2014 Summer Season Metrics to date
Donna Abbott distributed a copy of the May and J une metrics reports. Per OC Budget
Manager, the room tax collection in May was the best May ever. J une Smith Travel hotel
occupancy was up 5.6%, the largest increase in our comp set, while room tax for J une
was down slightly. Susan J ones stated that she believes the J une room tax was down due
to rate wars between the hotels. J une reflects a slight decline in web visits to our new
website, but that may be tied to a change in Google Analytics classification of web
traffic. Events section visits have gone way up. The new mobile website may be a
factor. Social media continues to climb. We have over 700,000 Facebook fans. Dennis
Dare mentioned how nice it is to have the metrics report to look back on.

Tourism Strategic Plan Update
Donna stated that all Tourism Commission members should have already been
interviewed by the consultant, Lyle Sumek. The next stage is for Donna, Frank, Larry,
David, and Andy Malis, MGH, to meet with the consultant by Skype to keep expenses
down. Lyle will be coming to Ocean City in October to meet with the Tourism
Commission for a full day session. Donna reported that the visitor profile surveys
continue to be collected. Mary Knight stated that visitors dont seem to mind taking the
survey when they visit the Boardwalk Cottage. Melanie offered to have one of the iPads
at the Chamber for visitors there. Donna stated that weve had visitors take surveys at the
White Marlin Open and at Sundaes in the Park at Northside Park, along with the
firemens convention and MML.

Sports Marketing Update
The TAB allocation was approved by the Mayor and Council to fund Ocean Citys share
of the bid fee for the USSSA Girls Softball World Series. $34, 650 came out of TAB
allocation. Wicomico County received a state grant for last years USSSA event and
since TAB also supported that, Wicomico County will be reimbursing Ocean City
$16,280, which Council approved to go back into the TAB allocation. Donna will be
meeting with Wicomico and Worcester Counties about Worcester County entering this
agreement. We have been working per the MOU to pursue other amateur sporting
events. Donna and Gary Mackes from Wicomico County met in J une with Terry
Hasseltine from the state sports marketing office. Terry has a lot of contacts and will be
assisting with some of these efforts. Terry will assist us with submitting proposals for a
few events. We will try to get events when the community needs them, weekdays and
shoulder season. The USSSA has a conference every fall in Orlando, where they are
based. It was recommended that the Town and Wicomico fund a sponsorship of the
conference. Ocean Citys share would be $3,500 and funds are available in Ocean Citys
sports marketing budget. A motion to support the sponsorship was made by Buck Mann
and second by Todd Ferrante; vote was unanimous and will be forwarded to the Mayor
and Council for review.

The Mayor and a team of helpers will be in Silver Spring on Thursday, August 21, doing
yard work, etc. for the grand prize winner of Ocean Citys Facebook Sweepstakes. Our

that the Baltimore Orioles and the Washington Nationals are both in first place in the
respective divisions and the TV ratings are extremely high.

Convention Center

Performing Arts Center. Larry is meeting with two producers from the Kennedy Center

Recreation and Parks Commission
August 12, 2014



1. Call to Order: The meeting was called to order at 4:22 P.M. at Northside Park.
Present were J oe Mitrecic, Lloyd Martin, Dennis Dare, Frank Miller, Calvin
Ginnavan, and Susan Petito. Guests included Zack Hoopes and J oanne Shriner.

2. Approval of Minutes: The minutes of J uly 15, 2014 were approved as amended.

3. New Private Event Requests: Susan reported that the BeCore Marketing
Activation promotion has made a few minor event changes and has completed the
Private Event application process. This event will be presented at the August 18
Council meeting.

4. Update on Beach Play Equipment: Susan reported equipment was installed on
August 1 and has been very successful with no incidents reported. Benches have
been put in place and are being used. Recommendation for future to install
signage to display names of donors responsible for the equipment.

5. Outdoor Exercise Area: Susan reported that concerns have been expressed about
young children misusing the outdoor fitness equipment at Northside Park and
using it as a play area. Discussion ensued regarding appropriate age-use, signage
and enforcement. It was recommended by Councilman Mitrecic that cost for
installation of a 42 vinyl fence with a pull latch inside a single entry gate be
investigated, and Councilman Dare recommended further investigation into the
cost and practical application of a security camera installation. Staff will report
back at a future Commission meeting.

6. Sunset Park Landscaping: Councilman Dare reported that Sunset Park has
become more of an entertainment venue rather than just a place to watch the
Sunset as originally intended. Current native landscaping have become large and
somewhat unruly and do not allow for the additional seating space necessary
when concerts occur. Susan noted that some native plantings may give the
appearance of weeds, but in fact, are not really weeds. Councilman Mitrecic
suggested adding educational signage in the beds. Councilman Dare commented
that the density of the perimeter plantings could also be a safety issue. Calvin
Ginnavan suggested that the front two planting beds could be modified. The
Committee agreed to meet at Sunset Park for the next meeting to walk the park
for review and further discussion.

7. Other Business:

Susan reported that residents at Hidden Harbor expressed concern
about the Kayak and SUP renters infringing on the marshes and
wetlands at the rear of the park. Susan presented photos to the
Committee for review and reported that the Kayak/SUP vendor has
been nothing but cooperative and requests that his customer stay on
their boards and in their kayaks and not to walk or contact the marshes
and wetlands. After discussion, it was recommended that a Town of
Ocean City sign be erected at the launch site to remind the public to
protect the marshes and wetlands. Susan will investigate.

Susan reported that a Catamaran recently docked at Northside Park for
an entire weekend, and that its presence interfered with the scheduled
fireworks for Sundaes in the Park. The owner was located and the
issue resolved, but Kevin Brown advised that permission to add an
ordinance sign to the pier be requested from the Commission. The
Commission members suggested a No Mooring or Docking from
6:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. sign be added, but asked staff to confirm
language with Guy Ayres.

Susan reported she and Terry McGean are meeting with the OCDC
design committee for their input into the Bayside Park design.

Susan reported the new Fall/Winter Splash has arrived.

Susan reported we will be presenting a single source bid for the
resurfacing of the basketball courts at 94

be used as fill at the Northside Park Lagoon,

Street Basketball Court Maintenance Services



TOWN OF
The White Marlin Capital of the World




TO: The Honorable Mayor, Council President and Members of Council
THRU: David L. Recor, ICMA-CM, City Manager
FROM: Susan Petito, CPRP, Director of Recreation and Parks
RE: Request to approve sole source award for 94
th
Street basketball court resurfacing
DATE: August 12, 2014


ISSUE(S): Basketball court at 94
th
Street is cracked and in need of repair and
resurfacing

SUMMARY: The FY 2014-2015 budget includes funds to repair, resurface and
repaint the aging basketball court at 94
th
Street. The work on the
court is necessary for safety and to extend the long term life and
usefulness of court.

For the last 15 years, the Town has been using Premier Court
surfacing for all its outdoor court facilities, as it is a preferred
performance and more functional surfacing than that of the
qualities and processes of overlaying with asphalt. Premier
Concepts, Inc., the manufacturer of Premier court, requires that
installation of Premier Courts be done by an authorized/certified
installer. American Tennis Courts, Inc. is the only firm authorized to
install Premier Court in Maryland, Washington, DC, and Northern
Virginia and the designated installer in Delaware and New Jersey.

In discussion with Catrice Parsons, it was determined that the
repair, resurfacing and repainting of the court would qualify as a
single source purchase.

FISCAL IMPACT: $ 25,235 American Tennis Courts, Inc. submitted quote. Project
was budgeted at $25,500.

RECOMMENDATION: Authorize single source contract for $25,235 to American Tennis.

7 PUBLIC HEARING

A. Proposed Closure and Conveyance of Seabay Drive
Right-of-Way at 61
st
Street


TOWN OF
The White Marlin Capital of the World




TO: The Honorable Mayor, Council President and Members of Council
THRU: David L. Recor, ICMA-CM, City Manager
FROM: Terence J. McGean, PE, City Engineer
RE: Public hearing to close and sell City right-of-way
DATE: August 13, 2014


ISSUE(S): Public hearing to close and convey a portion of Seabay Drive
north of 61
st
St. and request to convey a portion of land along
the west side of the Tennis Center property.

SUMMARY: The developer of the old OC Health and Racquet property is
interested in acquiring a portion of the Seabay Drive Right-of-
Way between 61
st
Street and the State Highway Rt 90 Right of
Way along with an adjacent 20 strip of land at the tennis center.

The Notice of the Public Hearing was advertised in the local
paper and mailed to all property owners within 500 of the site.

FISCAL IMPACT: To be determined.

RECOMMENDATION: Staff has no objection to closure and sale with the following
comments:

1) Developer provides an access easement to the city over the 8
landscape buffer for occasional maintenance of the tennis courts
and a potential future well site.
2) Improvements to 61
st
Street as shown and potential shared
use of the parking spaces with the tennis center be part of the
future sale negotiations.
3) The dedicated tree to Lucinda Kurtz is preserved in either its
current location or relocated in the immediate vicinity
4) The next steps will be to have the property appraised at the
developers expense and negotiate a sale price.

TOWN OF OCEAN CITY
OCEAN CITY, MARYLAND

POLICY AND PROCEDURE MANUAL

SECTION: Property Management
PPM 700-1 SUBJECT: Sale of Real Property
_______________________________________________________________

In accordance with the Ocean City Charter C-414 Powers of Council Enumerated, The
Council shall have, in addition, the power to pass ordinances not contrary to the laws
and Constitution of this State, for the following purposes:
. . .

(49) Property To acquire by conveyances, purchase or gift, real or leasable property
for any public purposes; to erect buildings and structures thereon for the benefit of the
town and its inhabitants; and to convey any real or leasehold property when no longer
needed for public use, after having given at least twenty (20) days public notice of the
proposed conveyance; to control, protect and maintain public buildings, grounds and
property of the town.

Based upon this charge, the following policy is hereby adopted with regard to disposal
of municipal property.

1. When the Council decides that property no longer serves a public purpose it shall
cause a public hearing to be scheduled with a 20-day notification period. If an
individual, or other legal entity, wishes to purchase public property that is
believed to no longer serve a public purpose, they may appear before the
Council for a determination on whether to proceed to a public hearing on the
specific property. If the request is initiated from an individual or other legal entity,
that individual or entity shall pay the cost of advertising for the public hearing
notice.

2. Once the public hearing is completed, the Mayor and Council will cause an
appraisal to be done of the property. The cost of the appraisal will be borne by
the Town if the proposed sale was initiated by the Town or by the proposed
buyer if initiated by them.

3. Upon receipt of the appraisal, the Mayor and Council will review the appraisal
and either negotiate the price, terms and conditions with the proposed buyer or
put the property out for public bid or public auction.

Date: 9/24/02 Page 1 of 2



4. If the property is put out for bid or auction, a notice shall be placed in the paper of
record notifying interested parties of the property offer. Bids shall be submitted in
a sealed bid format to the City Managers office by noon of the day due.

5. The Mayor and City Council shall open bids at their work session. The Town
reserves the right to reject any and all bids.

6. If a determination is made to accept the high bid, the Council shall direct the City
Solicitor to draft the appropriate ordinance allowing the conveyance of the
property.

7. Settlement shall occur no later than 90 days after the passage of the ordinance.

8 ITEMS REFERRED TO AND PRESENTATIONS FROM
THE CITY MANAGER AND STAFF

A. Request to Approve BeCore Marketing Activation
presented by Recreation and Parks Director







TOWN OF
The White Marlin Capital of the World




TO: The Honorable Mayor, Council President and Members of Council
THRU: David L. Recor, ICMA-CM, City Manager
FROM: Lisa Mitchell, Private Events Coordinator
RE: Marketing activation request using family friendly television show inflatable
DATE: August 12, 2014


ISSUE(S): Jessica Ramey with BeCore requests approval to place a marketing
activation on the beach in the downtown vicinity of Ocean City on
Saturday, August 30, 2014.

SUMMARY: This marketing activation will consist of a family friendly inflatable,
weighted and secured on the sand and surrounded by branded
caution tape. Two (2) vehicles will flank the inflatable. The
inflatable will be in the shape of Blinky, a fish from a nationally
televised, family friendly television show. The entire event, including
the vehicles, is a PR stunt with no prior marketing.

The event needs a 40 x 40 space on the beach with an additional
10 x 10 area for a generator. The organizer would like to be
somewhere on the beach within the area of Wicomico Street to
North Division Street. Staff suggests an area of beach between
Wicomico Street and South of Dorchester Street, no further east
than the wooden walkways that run perpendicular to the Boardwalk.

The event organizer may wish to hand out smaller versions of Blinky
or branded beach balls as giveaways.

FISCAL IMPACT: Coordinators will not send marketing material prior to PR
stunt. Crowd expectancy is dependent on beach visitors that day.

RECOMMENDATION: Reviewed by the Recreation and Parks Commission and referred to
the Mayor and Council with no recommendation.

st
Class Resort and Tourist Destination

ALTERNATIVES: No staff alternatives suggested.

RESPONSIBLE STAFF: Lisa Mitchell, Private Events Coordinator

COORDINATED WITH: All appropriate departmental staff has reviewed, and the event has
been coordinated with Public Works, the Fire Marshal and OCBP.

2014
August
Ocean City Private Events

Name of Event: Family Friendly Television Show Inflatable New Event: Yes
Date of Event: Saturday, August 30, 2014
Date Application Received: July 31, 2014 Application Fee Paid: Yes/$200 (app fee plus late fee)
Date Returned from All Departments: August 12, 2014 Total Cost to Town: No foreseeable costs

Things to Note:
The event will be a 25 family friendly inflatable that will be weighted and secured on sand surrounded by caution
tape. Two (2) vehicles will flank the inflatable. The inflatable will be in the shape of a fish and the entire event,
including the vehicles, is a simple PR stunt with no prior marketing.
The event will set-up on a 40x40 area of the beach between Wicomico and North Division Streets, wherever staff
deems most appropriate. Will also need a 10 x10 area for a generator.
Set-up will take place 11:59 pm on August 29, 2014 and be complete by 10 am on August 30, 2014.
Event will take place from 10 am-6 pm on August 30, 2014.
Breakdown will begin at the events conclusion and be complete by 11:59 pm on August 30, 3014.

Comments from Department Representatives:
RISK MANAGEMENT Traffic on the beach raises concerns. Winds for a large tie down could also be a concern.
Insurance certificate naming the town as additional insured to be obtained and submitted prior to the event. Hold
harmless agreement is signed.
OCBP Vehicles on the beach may create a public safety issue. Need to be aware of people on the beach while
driving along the beach.
PUBLIC WORKS Will provide the event organizer with a generator, however, their staff will need to pick up and
return. After reviewing the application, they may need sand fence poles and a pole driver. Also suggest the event
organizer park their three (3) trucks at the Inlet Lot versus setting up on the beach.
REC & PARKS No requested tasks or costs associated with this event. Location does not pose an issue for Rec. &
Parks. For the future look into Marketing Activations having to pay a different fee than private events that may be
community based or that might put heads in beds.
TRANSPORTATION Weather permitting, trams will be in operation from 10 am until 12 midnight.
TOURISM Does not see any benefit to tourism with this publicity stunt. While the inflatable is based on a cartoon,
its tie in with a toxic lake actually causes a little concern with using our beautiful and clean beach as a back drop.
FIRE MARSHAL, OCPD, EMERGENCY SERVICES and OCCC No comments, concerns or costs.

Budget Amendment #2


TOWN OF
The White Marlin Capital of the World




TO: The Honorable Mayor, Council President and Members of Council
THRU: David L. Recor, ICMA-CM, City Manager
FROM: Jennie Knapp, Budget Manager
RE: Second reading of ordinance to adopt FY 14 Budget Amendment #2
DATE: August 11, 2014


ISSUE(S): Ordinance 2014-22 to adopt FY 14 Budget Amendment #2

SUMMARY: Although not all FY 14 revenue and expenditures have been
recorded, enough information is available to present Budget
Amendment #2. This amendment recognizes bond funds from the
2013 bond issue funding the Beach Patrol headquarters, roof
replacements at the City Garage and Public Safety Building and the
Performing Arts Center at the Convention Center. In addition,
grant funds and donations received since Budget Amendment #1
are included. Items funded by the Mayor and Council since Budget
Amendment #1, such as replacement of the jail security system at
the Public Safety building are included as well.

FISCAL IMPACT: The amount taken from prior year reserves (fund balance)
decreases $24,760 from $2,385,417 in Budget Amendment #1 to
$2,360,657. Fund balance remains at or above the 15% of annual
expenditures policy target. It is anticipated that less than
$2,360,657 will be taken from prior year reserves at the fiscal year-
end.

RECOMMENDATION: Ratify ordinance.


Goal: Financially Sound Town Government

ALTERNATIVES: None suggested.

RESPONSIBLE STAFF: Jennie Knapp, Budget Manager
