“City Council May take a Second Look at Boardwalk Hotel Proposal”

Plans for a $150 million luxury resort hotel on the Ocean City Boardwalk in place of the shuttered Wonderland Pier amusement park may not be dead after all
Just three months after City Council voted against declaring the Wonderland site as an area “in need of rehabilitation” to speed the hotel project along, the governing body is expected to revisit the issue in December.
Councilman Jody Levchuk, who was originally among the hotel opponents when the governing body rejected the rehabilitation status for Wonderland by a 6-1 vote on Aug. 21, now wants to bring it back at the Dec. 4 meeting.
