From Warrington Wary:

I have gone to every meeting and I cannot understand the owners of the Warrington. They stated that as a hotel that all recyclables are going to be picked up by Neptune or a private company. This is in the minutes of the Zoning Board. This is JUST one of the misunderstandings. At the last meeting they intended to place all the garbage and recyclables at the front of Seaview Ave, blocking the sidewalk because there is no place to accomadate all the garbage, not to mention what impact it will have on the people who live in front of the Warrington or whom are vacationing.

They think a 4 foot easement means that they own the property and have the right to interrupt their neighbors’ privacy.They would like a 5 x 5 foot sign on Seaview Ave, but they said a 3 x 3 sign would be OK.

My question to all is would you like to enter a hotel in the back of it or enter from the front? The owners have no consideration for anyone who lives there. After all, did they ever pay for the 47 violations that closed them down in the first place as a rest home.

I would like to know what my fellow Ocean Grovers THINK?

Editor’s note: One year ago we posted our last article regarding the Warrington. As many of you will recall, this former “rest home” was closed by the State in 2012. If you click on the link below, you can read the status of the situation as of March, 2014.

   It’s supposed to be a high class hotel what are you thinking Paul?

   Door man: It is essential for a hotel to have a rear door for discreet arrivals and departures. But the future Warrington Hotel and Shelter for Wayward Persons should have the main entrance in front so that lost souls and their visitors can easily locate the place. There should be large porches in the back so that guests can watch the swan boats pedal by and observe the walkers along Lake Avenue and across the bridge. This project will bring more eyeballs to the neighborhood watching and thus reduce crime.

   Mr Blogfinger .. What do you think, enter the Hotel from a back delivery door, or a Grand entrance from the Front. I have been to many Hotels AND I would think its to crazy entering from the delivery door. What do you think?

   The impracticality of the site makes any large scale development or renovation a logistical nightmare. Lake Ave is a sidewalk. Seaview Ave offers no real access and has no room to absorb such things as dumpsters, construction vehicles and equipment. Even if these issues can be resolved somehow, where would guests park?

   I can not understand how the Neptune zoning can allow the Warrington to place garbage and recyclables in front of someone home and block the sidewalk. We need more people on the zoning from O.G.
