. . Mayor’s Compromise Rejected
FROM PAGE 6 “We broke this down into bite sized pieces and to say that information was flawed, I think is an inaccurate description,” Recor said. “This is not the first time the Mayor and Council have dealt with this issue. This is not the first time the Mayor and Council have struggled with this issue but the data was comprehensive. The data was good data, and the data was updated when provided to the Mayor and Council as part of this discussion.” Recor added to hire an independent consultant would cost the city anywhere from $25,000 to $50,000. “A consultant is not going to make a decision … at the end of the day even with the advice of a consultant and after a more comprehensive review of the issue the Mayor and Council still will have to make a decision,” he said. “We believe we have provided good information for Mayor and Council to make a decision and as you can see they elected not to do the entire ocean block and selectively identify through their discourse where to implement paid parking. It is no more complicated than that.” Councilwoman Margaret Pillas supported holding off on making a final decision until a study is conducted. “It has always been a very controversial issue and until we do a
study and show people we put time and effort into how we are choosing … it will be based on the reasons of a study,” she said. “We keep eating away at our family friendly relaxed clean town with every little step we take to adjust our budget shortfalls, and somewhere along the line the big step is going to happen for Ocean City.” Attorney Pete Crosby, representing Crab Bag LLC, voiced his client’s appreciation for the mayor’s attempt to compromise. “The problem is when you put paid parking on some streets and not others you are putting the squeeze on. Any way you look at it. One thing you do is going to have a reaction on another street,” he said. “Bottom line is I think we need an open process where you look at the competing interest on each street, street by street … and do it over a period time under some type of orderly way that it doesn’t look like it is being shoved down people’s throats as a political backbone,” Crosby said. “It has that feeling with three streets. Make a more orderly and global plan.” Pillas asked for the motion on the table to approve the ordinance as is to be amended to include the mayor’s suggestions. There was no second made. The council then voted 5-1, with Ashley and Pillas in opposition, to approve the new areas of paid parking as proposed.
