OCEAN CITY – The city is looking to earmark savings from a 2012 bond and general fund surplus to fund a long list of unfunded projects that should ultimately lower expenses in the years to come. On Tuesday afternoon, City Engineer Terry McGean explained cost savings from the Boardwalk reconstruction project and Fire Station 4 project in the 2012 bond fund are estimated at $1,170,000. Savings must be used on capital projects with priority placed on projects included in the bond issue. Also, the general fund balance after closing out the previous fiscal year exceeds the 15-percent annual expenditures policy target by about $2,235,000. The surplus funds can be utilized at the discretion of the City Council. McGean began by recommending using the bond saving toward Boardwalk safety enhancements, including additional cameras and call boxes at the cost of about $100,000 and extending fiber optic from the Worcester Street substation to the tram station at the cost of about $50,000, which would complete the fiber optic project from the Inlet to 27th Street. Also, McGean suggested railing replacements on the Boardwalk in the amount of $100,000 from North Division Street to the Inlet that was stalled in 1999 and $100,000 toward additional benches on the Boardwalk in the downtown area. McGean added the purchase of benches would be the least prioritized item but the need for downtown benches has become apparent as donations for benches or the adoption of benches and the locations chosen are predominantly being placed in the north end of town. Next, McGean suggested placing bond savings toward the St. Louis Avenue project, including $150,000 toward decorative streets lights in Phase 2 and 3 of the street’s improvements, and that is assuming a $100,000 contribution from the Ocean City Development Corporation. Also, he proposed $100,000 to be set aside for side-street paving in the St. Louis Avenue area for utility connections. Keeping an eye on the amount of calls for service to the police from the St. Louis Avenue, Councilman Dennis Dare thought it would be a good idea to spur redevelopment in that area to minimize problem properties. “With that in mind I don’t know if it would make a lot of sense to repave streets where we want to encourage redevelopment,” Dare said. “In other words you pave a street, and a couple years from now it may be torn up.” Dare acknowledged the concept SEE NEXT PAGE
