The County Council soon will
examine and then hold a public
hearing on a much-revised sci
of industrial performance stand
ards that includes a new, ia
zone, or an industrial park zone
created to attract industry to
park-like areas.
The performance standards
and the new I-3 zone were ap.
proved last week by the Mary
land-National Capital Park and
Planning Commission after a Sc
ries Of hearings.
The performance standards
relating to noise, vibration
smell, appearance, building set
backs, Off-street parking, etc.
are a vital part of the cOunty's
mold for new industry.
If approved, the I-3 zone
would join the IL and II indus
trial zones already a part of the
county's coming code. Generally
speaking, II is the heaviest ION.
ing use while the I-3 zone would
be the lightest.
Any site to be zoned into the
I-3 zone must have an area of at
least so acres il it does not form
part of an existing industrial
zone.
If the I-3 zone were to abut an
II or II zone, it could be as
small as two acres, however.
Applicants for I-3 coming must
submit a plan of development,
a description of the proposed OPP

requirements and will comply
with them at all times. The plan

Ocean City's
Land Values
Skyrocketing
BY DICK LOHMEYER
Contributing Writer

OCEAN CITY, Md. - The
skyrocketing value Of land In
this resort is almost fantastic
and sometimes hard to believe,
but it's a fact that each year
beach property is becoming
more valuable.
In just the past three years
ocean-front property has more
than doubled in value. Choice
lots that sold for about $4,000
three years ago are now going
for $1,000 or more.
The situation has gotten to
the point where there are few
ocean-front lots left on the
open market, and property own
ers realizing the scarcity of
beach-front lots are hesitating
to part with the available sites.
With Just so much property
available, it's understandable
that the price jumps every time
a lot or entire block of land
is taken of the market.
Property owners, particularly
ocean-front lot owners, are be-
ing cautioned by their advisors
to hold onto their investments
If they sell to take ADVANTAGE
of the large margin of profit,
there is a good chance they
won't be able to locate other
ocean-front lots on which to
build.
Not too many years ago
when land was plentiful in
Ocean City, a person could buy
a lot most anywhere for from
$50 to 500. At that time prop
erty owners who were strapped
for funds would pay their obi
cations with lots instead OF
cash. The lots were taken reluc-
family as payment.
Today these lots represent
thousands of dollars. Typical
instance is the Pocomoke City,
Md. lawyer who years ago ac-
copied several lots in payment
for a bill amounting to sew
eral hundred dollars. Just last
year he was offered $4,000 for
the property and turned the
offer down because of the rap
idly increasing value Of the
land.
