OCEAN CITY – Some local residents who would like the opportunity to video-record Planning Board meetings met resistance when they tested the waters on Wednesday, Feb. 5, but they ultimately found out that such recording is permitted, subject to reasonable rules.

Marianne Brewer said she and a friend, who had a camera and tripod, were told by Jaime Felker, the Planning Board secretary, in advance of the meeting that video-recording wasn’t allowed. Brewer said she had spoken to Felker previously to advise her of their intentions to videotape the meeting.
