Ocean City Patch
A group of restaurant owners wants voters to decide if Ocean City should remain a completely dry town, and their bid enters a new stage today with the start of a petition drive. A five-member committee of Ocean City residents will begin seeking signatures on a petition that asks for a public vote in November on an ordinance that would allow restaurant patrons to bring their own alcoholic beverages to certain restaurants — a practice commonly known as “Bring Your Own Bottle,” or BYOB.
