Thoughts From The Publisher's Desk

Ocean City is not going to get its tax differential. The town is seeking a tax setoff, also known as a tax differential, for services it provides outside of municipal limits. The resort estimates it costs nearly $14 million a year for it to provide government services outside Ocean City. Therefore, that's the amount of county property taxes Ocean City should not be paying, according to city officials and substantiated by an outside agency. There's a lot to this issue, including significant...READ MORE

Compromise Is A Reasonable Solution

In many ways, compromise is the key to life. With government and public policy issues, it's essential to maintaining a balance and moving forward. Perhaps no better example is the current situation involving the current state of affairs with the fire service in Ocean City as well as its future. The scene at City Hall on Tuesday was not unlike others we have seen over the years. However, when there's standing-room only at City Hall, it usually has something to do with money. Indirectly this issue...READ MORE

"Slightly Below Average"

February is usually the month of the year when rhetorical questions start to feel as if the person asking them is being ironic. As if a simple 'hey, how's it going?' can not only be answered with a verbal 'fine', but also with a mental eye roll that poses another simple question: 'do you really want to know?' As we are tangled in the throws of yet another year's winter blues that has once again seemingly stretched with each five-day weather forecast into the 'oh god, not another guitar solo'...READ MORE
