The City of Niagara Falls has approved an application by Marineland to sever its property so it can raise money to move its animals and operate the park.
The city approved the application at a committee of adjustment hearing Tuesday evening.
A lawyer for Marineland says the park has not yet been sold and money is needed for operations and to help fund a move of its remaining marine mammals, which include 31 beluga whales.
