Notably, “[i]n the traditional public forum, which includes the streets, sidewalks, parks, and general meeting halls, speakers’ rights are at their apex.” Steinburg v. Chesterfield County Planning Comm’n 527 F.3d 377, 384 (4th Cir.2008). Chase contends, and Ocean City does not dispute, that the Ocean City boardwalk is a traditional public forum.

Los Angeles Police Dept., 121 F.3d 1365, 1367-69 (9th Cir. 1997) (<HOLDING>), cert. denied, 523 U.S. 1047, 118 S.Ct. 1362,
