Ocean City has proposed a new local law that would prohibit sleeping or camping in public places, such as the beach, Boardwalk, parks and playgrounds. According to BreakingAC.com, an exception is carved out in the ordinance for “beach naps.” So that means if you nod off while relaxing in a chair or lying on a blanket on the beach, you won’t risk violating the ordinance and possibly getting fined. City Council introduced the measure on June 25 and has scheduled a public hearing and final vote at its July 16 meeting at 6 p.m. at City Hall.
