City Council to vote on rehab status for 600 Boardwalk, this Thursday 6/25

As we feared, this Thursday, June 25, at 6 pm, City Council will consider declaring 600 Boardwalk an “Area in Need of Rehabilitation.”

We strongly encourage you to attend and have your voice heard, if you’re able.

HERE’S WHY THIS MATTERS

The Boardwalk Subcommittee just completed months of work and recommended a path forward using the City's normal planning and zoning tools. A rehabilitation designation before talks, before market studies, at this stage benefits no one—except the developer.

The Boardwalk Subcommittee Final Report, presented to City Council on June 12, 2026, reflects the culmination of seven months of research and deliberation by a nine-member volunteer committee established by Council President Terry Crowley in the fall of 2025. The committee examined 11 data categories across physical, economic, social, and comparative dimensions, producing findings on hotel market conditions, parking revenue, beach tag trends, amusement industry challenges, stakeholder sentiment, and peer community benchmarks.
