TIle systern produces bills and maintains billing/service records for approximately 43,000 Clearwater utility customers. This hardware service contract was orginally awarded to Network Computing Corporation (NCC) as approved by the Commission at the August 30, 1993 commission meeting. Network Computing Corporation, the vendor that developed the Utility Billing software, is reorganizing and, effective December 31, 1993, will no longer be contracting to provide hardware maintenance. ~ t. t ; Due to this unanticipated development, it is recommended that a maintenance agreement with Digital Equipment Corporation, the hardware vendor, be put into effect. This agreement will cover the period from January 1, 1994 through September 30, 1994 - the balance of the fiscal year not supported by NeC. Since NCC cannot provide support, only the hardware manufacturer can provide guaranteed service on all parts of the system hardware and operating system. This contract will provide service on the VAX 4000 Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. with four hour response time. The equipment has been very reliable since the installation of the hardware in July, 1990. The four hour response to failure has been requested due to the highly visible customer service position of the Utility system. User Dcpt: DOA SI C. I . S . $ 21,024.00 Current Fiscol Yr.

Printed on recycled popel' - 2 - In August of 1993. the commission approved a multi-year service agreement with Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) that covers the City's finance computer. The agreement, which provides a five (5) percent maintenance discount, can be applied towards any other computers in the city maintained by DEC. However, DEC requires each CPU to be itemized under a separate service agreement because of differences in hardware and service contract hours. The City Manager's fiscal year 93/94 recommended budget contains the available balance of $118,788.00 as of October 31, 1993 in Department of Administrative Services, Computer Information Services, Equipment Service and Repair-Other, code 555-09862-546200-590-000 which is sufficient to fund this item. :1 , , ", , ,'~ ' ", , " ~, " .

Clearwater City Commission Agenda Cover Memorandum 5', I tern # Meeting Date: 8.1(1)13 SUBJECT: PURCHASE OF BLACK 3408 POLYETHYLENE PIPE AND VARIOUS FITTINGS RECOMMENDATION/MOTION: . i 1 ~ j ., .1 :l l' ? ~ .~ Award annual contracts (12/14/93 to 12/13/94) to purchase the estimated requirements for black 3408 polyethylene pipe and fittings to the following vendors who provided the lowest and most responsive bids that met specifications: M.T. Deason Co., Inc., Birmingham, AL, at an estimated cost of $1,075,024.30, Equipment Controls Co., Norcross, GA, at an estimated cost of $118,182.50, Perfection Corp., Madison, OH, at an estimated cost of $52,845.00 and Phillips Engineering Co., Clearwater, FL at an estimated cost of $26,552.50 for a total estimated cost of $1,272,604.30 t . ~ J ~ ~ i 9 and that the appropriate officials be authorized to execute same. BACKGROUND: This bid represents Clearwater Gas system's (CGS's) estimated annual requirements for black 3408 polyethylene pipe and fittings to be ordered as needed. The contract period will be from 12/14/93 to 12/13/94. The black pipe and fittings are required for the construction of gas mains and services to meet new customer requests in our high pressure northern area which is designed for 100 pounds of gas pressure. This area is generally north of Curlew Road and includes our Pasco expansion requirements. 1 , Yellow 2306 polyethylene pipe is used in our low pressure distribution service area which we operate at 60 pounds of pressure. This area is generally south of Curlew Road. Our yellow gas pipe annual contract was awarded by the Commission on 06/03/93 to M.T. Deason Co., Inc. and Perfection Corp. Polyethylene pipe and fittings must undergo rigid testing and meet specific standards as set forth by the Federal Department of Transportation. In order for a gas system to approve and install polyethylene pipe and fittings from a manufacturer, the Florida PUblic Service commission (FPSC) which regulates us for safety, requires documentation of material technical specifications, testing procedures, testing results, fusion procedures, cross fusion procedures Revi ewed by: legal Budget Purchasing Risk Mgmt.

In addition, CGS is concerned with the manufacturing process, quality control and statistical tracking as these materials are expected to operate satisfactorily in an underground environment for at least 50 years. We, therefore, require documentation of these processes. , ~ ,~ Phillips Engineering Company submitted a bid for Phillips Driscopipe 6800 pipe and fittings. The 6800 pipe material is unacceptable as Phillips Driscopipe and Phillips Engineering Company has refused to comply with the testing requirement set forth in the bid specifications. The specifications require the vendors to provide pipe material and pay for testing by an independent laboratory. This testing will determine the average molecular weight (AMW) and molecular weight distribution (MWD) of the pipe material. AMW and MWD are very important performance indicators regarding environmental stress crack resistance (ESCR) and rapid crack propagation (RCP). Under certain conditions polyethylene may develop cracks which grow and propagate, sometimes rapidly (RCP). stress cracking can be avoided by using stress crack resistant materials. The testing will determine which materials do or do 'not demonstrate this quality. :~ 1 ~ 1. ',~ .~ J \' ;( " " ,~ , , Safety is always the most important concern of a gas company. eGS must be concerned with a balance of cost savings and quality. Gas pipe is the major component and safety factor of a gas system. Therefore, the lowest bid alone cannot be the determining factor. The vendor must also prove the quality of their material via testing by an independent laboratory. The Department of Transportation (DOT) is also concerned about the safety of polyethylene gas pipe. The DOT has two (2) required tests regarding ESCR. M.T. Deason Company through their supplier Polypipe has agreed to the testing required in the specifications, and has submitted documentation on AMW and results of the testing required by the DOT on ESCR. The bid from Ed Young Sales is also unacceptable as the Plexco pipe and fitting material is not approved for use in the gas system by CGS or the FPSC. Their bid also specified "truck load quantity" pipe deliveries only. This is contrary to the "to be ordered as needed" specification for this contract. eGS specifically orders in this manner to require the manufacturer to stock quantities in inventory, which avoids our inventorying large dollar amounts of materials. , J ., ! I other vendors also submitted bids that included various manufacturer's materials that are not approved because of the documentation requirements. These are marked by "*" on the aid Tab & Summary. * t Nine (9) bids were solicited. six (6) bids were received, with three (3) no- bid responces. The bids were evaluated and awarded based on the lowest price that met specifications and were approved by CGS. None of the vendors who submitted bids quoted on all items; therefore, we separated items to realize the maximum cost savings. The estimated prices of the bids in this contract reflect a 42% decrease as compared to last year's contract prices which represents a savings of $692,453.65 below previous bid pricing. .; I I After careful evaluation, the Gas superintendent recommends awarding the bids as follows: Group 1, Items 1-6 to M.T. Deason Company Group 2, Items 7-31 to M.T. Deason Company $1,018,375.00 34,184.60 ,:.f - 3 - Group 3, Items 32-39 to M.T.

Monies for this purpose were originally included in the FY93/94 budget to be funded by a Gas System Expansion Bond issue. These bonds are now projected to be sold in the second quarter. The transfer of Gas Revenues for this contract is in effect a loan from the city's cash pool and is anticipated to be an interim solution, as these monies will be reimbursed to the Gas Fund once the new bond monies are available and the Gas System Bond Funds established. Funds for cost incurred after October 1, 1994, will be requested in the recommended FY 94/95 budget.

These meters are changed out on about a 10 year schedule to assure accurate measurement of consumption. Due to wear and tear with age, gas meters have a propensity to slow down. This can result in under measuring consumption which can cause lost revenues. This contract will provide the labor to change out 1000 gas meters in a timely manner without delays to the project or having to increase existing staffing levels. The estimated cost to the Clearwater Gas System is $35,000. The gas meters for this project will be provided by the Clearwater Gas System from existing inventory. 'I ~ ~ six (6) bids were solicited. Two (2) bids were received with four (4) no responses. The bid from West Coast Plumbing was the lowest and most responsive that met the specifications. ~. :( 1 ~ ) For comparison, our per unit cost last year was $40 versus the bid of $35 for each residential meter change out this year or a projected annual savings of $5,000. We estimate that the labor and vehicle expenses to accomplish this work with CGS personnel would be $52 per meter; therefore, it makes sense to contract out this workload. A first quarter budget amendment to transfer $35,000 from Gas Revenues to a new CIP code 315-96359-563800-532-000 called Pinellas Expansion will be submitted to fund this project.

A fixed amount (+$.0087) will be added to the average base price defined in OPIS (Oil Price Information Service) published weekly. This fixed fee will remain firm for the period of the contract. In November 1993, the city commission approved an interim two-month purchase of diesel fuel while the Consortium negotiated its new diesel fuel contract. Since the Consortium does not purchase its fuel on a fiscal-year basis, staff is requesting approval to join the Consortium on this contract for the period of December 16, 1993, through December 15, 1995. The County's contract award procedure makes it difficult for the City to award its fuel contract in a timely manner. ':~ i~ ;; I1 ~ ., J t It is estimated that the city will purchase $184,000 of diesel fuel for the remaining ten-month period of fiscal year 1993/94 and $220,000 for fiscal year 1994/95. Funding for this purchase is budgeted in the Fuel Code, 566-06611- 550500-590-000, which has a.n Rvailable balance of $536,564.00, as of November 4, 1993. Fiscal year impact for 1993/94 will be $220,800. Revi ewed by: Legal Budget Purchasing Risk Mgmt.

BACKGROUND: Staff has been working for several months on identifying and correcting radio reception deficiencies in the Countryside Mall area. The problem with this area is that outside radio signals cannot penetrate the structure excluding certain areas under doorways and under skylights. The building is for lack of a better definition, a bunker--being partially built below ground level. Ericsson/GE was contacted to address the solution to these deficiencies and coordinate the equipment installation. It is currently performing City-wide propagation readings, completing the installation of updated software, and maintaining the radio system. Staff feels it is impractical to bid this installation and is recommending Ericsson/GE coordinate this installation to protect the integrity of the 800 mHz radio system. ~-;: . '" TX RX Systems, Inc., a company who has expertise in tinding solutions to very difficult radio problems in structures such as subways, was forwarded spectrum and propagation readings of Countryside Mall conducted by City radio technicians. TX RX Systems, Inc. ha'i recommended a system that will provide two parabolic dish antennas located on the roof of the Countryside Mall. Inside the mall there will be two amplifiers sending a radio signal through two splitters to four antennas located in the designated areas based on computer printouts of the propagation readings. :5 To substantiate these solutions, all of the propagation readings were forwarded to a private contracting company who verified ,. that this proposal is the best approach to solve the City's radio deficiencies for the Countryside Mall area. This company operates radio systems nationwide, and at no cost to the City, they analyzed the problems through their computer networks and engineering staff. Funding for this purchase is budgeted in project 800 mHz Radio, 315-94208-530300-519-000, which has an available balance of $36,062 as of November 10, 1993.

I tern # Meeting Date: ____ '~l11.1 q3 SUBJECT: United states Postal Service Lease Amendments. RECOMMENDATION/MOTION: Approve U. S. Postal Service Lease Amendments to the Lease dated January 26, 1966 for an increase of $334.00 from $6,000.00 to $6,334.00 and to the Lease dated July 14, 1993 for an increase of $334.00 for the Basic Term from $35,926.00 to $36,260.00 per year, an increase of $501.00 for the first five- year option from $37,722.30 to $38,223.30 per year and an increase of $666.00 for the second five-year option from $39,608.42 to $40,274.42 per year for the addition of one parking space in the marina parking lot e and that the appropriate officials be authorized to execute same, BACKGROUND: The present lease between the City of Clearwater and the U. S. Postal Service will end on September 30, 1994. The city Commission approved a new five-year lease, with two five-year options, for the U. S. Postal Service starting on October 1, 1994. The Basic Term payments are $35,926.00 per year, first five- year option payments are $37,722.30 per year and second five-year option payments are $39,608.42 per year. The U. S. Postal Service requested one additional parking space for a postal vehicle in the Marina parking lot. The additional parking space was assigned to the U. S. Postal Service on August 1, 1993, due to their critical need for one additional space. They agreed to pay the city rate for the additional parking space. The Parking Facilities Manager has determined that the U. S. Postal Service should pay an additional $334.00 for the period 8/1/93 to 9/30/94, $334.00 per year for the Basic Term, $501.00 per year for the first five-year option and $666.00 per year for the second five-year option for this additional parking space. The increase charges for a parking space in the Marina parking lot were based on revenue projections. The additional revenue collected from the Lease Amendments will be deposited in the Parking Fund.

Item # Meet ing Date: la0.113 SUBJECT: MODIFICATION OF POLICE PISTOL RANGE RECOMMENDATION/MOTION: Award a contract to Anderson & Birchard Design/Build Group, Inc. of Seminole, Florida, for modification to the police pistol range at the countryside Substation Complex in the amount of $144,996.00, the lowest most responsive and responsible bid in accordance with the specifications ~ and that the appropriate officials be authorized to execute same. BACRGROUND: The Police Department has operated a pistol range located adjacent to the Countryside Substation facility since 1979. The range is one of only two (2) law enforcement operated ranges in Pinellas County. The other facility is operated by the Pinellas Police Academy, and is located south of Ulmerton Road, in which access by our agency is severely limited due to location and scheduling demands by other law enforcement agencies in the county. Several minor improvements, to the department's range, have been completed over the years to include expansion of shooting positions, pouring of concrete, planting of trees and shrubbery and the erection of an obstacle course plus a discretionary shooting facility (simulated house structure). All of these improvements have been accomplished through the use of operating funds. Over the course of many years, the earthen berm which surrounds the live fire area had eroded to the point where the tumbling of rounds could exit the range proper. The department, during fiscal year 92/93, performed a short term partial correction through the re-establishment of the berm and the addition of vegetation to the area. The long term solution, however, involves a major modification of the operational portion of the range to include a concrete eyebrow which is made of pre-stressed concrete slabs which would be placed on a footer into the berm with steel supports covered in wood along the front of the eyebrow; then a venetian blind type baffle system of pressure treated, 2" x 12" Revi cwed by: Legal Budget Purchasing Risk Mgmt.

The baffle system would be supported on pressure treated 6" x 6" wood columns. The venetian blind system is to begin on the 25 yard firing line and extend down range to the front edge of the eyebrow structure. This would insure that no rounds would exit the range perimeter and it would also serve as a noise abatement structure. Upon completion, the durability of this structure would enhance safety and range longevity for at least fifteen (15) years. Funding for this purchase is available in the capital Improvement Code: 315-91122-565800-521-000, Range Improvement Modification, which has a balance of $150,000.00 as of November 16, 1993. ,., 0 0 lld < ~I 0 iii 0 ~ .

These panels will be supported on galvanized steel columns and poured concrete footings. These columns will then be faced with railroad ties affixed to columns with vinyl banding. Vinyl banding material and banding machine will be turned over to the owner at the completion of the job. Construct a "VENETIAN BLIND" type baffle system of pressure treated 2"x 12" timbers of #2 southern yellow pine at 12" on center parallel with the target line. This baffle system is to be supported on pressure treated 6" x 6" x 10' #2 southern yellow pine wood columns. The venetian blind will be connected to the concrete eyebrow and run to the rear of the sidewalk at the 25 yard line. The venetian blind will run the full width of the range from the cement drainage ditch on the west to the cement drainage ditch to the east, approximately 264'. Reference for design will be taken from the NRA range manual. All steel plates, fasteners, etc. will be hot dipped galvanized. i ~ Construct a concrete drainage swale which will run the length of the back of the eyebrow and run down both sides of the eyebrow to the existing concrete drainage ditches on each end of the range. This is to handle rain run-off to prevent erosion. Architectural and engineering drawings will be certified by a Registered Florida Professional Engineer, and the cost for same will be included in the estimate. I It will be the responsibility of the contractor to obtain the permits but the fees will be waived by the city. Water and 110 volt electricity will be available for construction purposes. Temporary sanitation facilities, and clean-up and disposal of all construction materials will be the responsibility of the contractor. Any damage to sidewalks, drives or any part of the facilities due to construction will be the responsibility of the contractor. site visit will be mandatory before bids will be excepted.

I tern # .Meeting Date: ;a(J1i33 SUBJECT: FIREARMS TRAINING SYSTEM (F.A.T.S.) RECOMMENDATION/MOTION: Award a contract to Firearms Training Systems, Incorporated, Norcross, Georgia for the purchase of a complete firearms training simulator with peripherals (five (5) system controlled weapons, two (2) stand alone weapons and six (6) training video scenario discs) for a total cost of $116,603.00, in accordance with section 2.564 (b), Code of ordinances, (Sole Source) ~ and that the appropriate officials be authorized to execute same. BACKGROUND: The Police Department has identified a need to supply its Police Officers with judgmental shooting training. Although officers qualify two (2) times annually, there are limitations associated with moving target training, "Shoot - Don't Shoot", shooting under stress as well as other discretionary shooting scenarios. The police pistol range, although a viable training facility for familiarity and accuracy, cannot solely assist the department in the area of high liability associated with police officer shootings. The purchase of the Firearms Training System is a state-of-the-art training simulator which will allow the department to address these issues and could greatly minimize the liability connected with the use of firearms by the law enforcement community. It has been used successfully in court to defend police officers and departments on several occasions. The F.A.T.S. training system is highly regarded in the law enforcement and military communities. This system is described as a simulator which provides life size realistic projections of decision making scenarios actually drawing the student into the realistic action. The F.A.T.S. system is operated by an instructor through the use of a computer keyboard and hard copy printer which gives the capability of retaining a history of each student's performance.

At a meeting of the Board of Trustees of the Clearwater Police Supplementary Pension Fund held on November 15, 1993, the Board unanimously agreed to recommend that William Schwab be reappointed to serve a two (2) year term as trustee. Mr. Schwab has stated that he will accept re-appointment. (Mr. Schwab was originally appointed to a one-year term rather than the norma) two-year term in order to stagger the terms of office of the Trustees of the Board and the term will now revert to a two-year term.)

BACKGROUND: Several- years ago, the city established a capital improvement project to replace old, worn-out playground equipment at the City's 27 playgrounds. Continuous inspection and maintenance programs are performed to assure the safety of the equipment and to determine the timing for replacement. For fiscal year 93/94, play equipment at three sites (Valencia, Cypress Point, and Montclair Parks) has been earmarked for replacement. Existing equipment at these locations is old and was installed at Valencia Park in 1980, Cypress Point Park in 1983, and Montclair Park in 1984. The three new play structures are identical in design, and are geared to preschoolers and early primary grade children from 6 to 8 years old. The equipment is colorful and offers a variety of play experiences including sliding, climbing, crawling and exploring. The new equipment is constructed out of steel and plastic with stainless steel hardware, and contains a transfer module for disabled accessibility. ~ " \l' -:, .~ The proposed play structures are similar in size and design to the piece existing at the Island Estates Playground. We asked three companies to supply us with a quotation for a comparable play structure. Park Structures, Inc., supplied us with the lowest quotation ($6,692.00) per structure. This price reflects a 15% equipment and 23% installation discount which is identical to the Lee County School District Bid No. 4835, which Park Structures has said they will honor for this contract.

BACKGROUND: For many years, the City of Clearwater has used various ~~hool facilities, such as gymnasiums, to offer recreation programs. On the other hand, numerous schools have a need to use city facilities, primarily ballfields and swimming pools. Cooperation between the city and the School Board has always been excellent and the usage of each other's facilities is fairly equal. The agre~ment allows the city and the School Board the flexibility needed to offer citizens quality educational and recreational opportunities. Also, it enables th~ city and the School Board to use each other's facilities at no charge, provided the use conforms to the regular working hours of each party. The subject agreement runs from January I, 1994 to December 31, 1994. The School Board is scheduled to review this renewal agreement on December &. In content, the agreement is almost identical to the 1993 agreement. The only addition is a new paragraph 5 which requires the City and all its invitees to abide by all Board policies, including policies which prohibit the consUlliption of tobacco products and alcoholic beverages on Board property. The only change to Exhibit A is that the City's use of Countryside High School stadium has changed from "city-wide track meets and band contest" to "varioustrack meets and Fun N' Sun activities."

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this change order is to provide contract quantities for sidewalk replacement at the seawall at the city's Main Marina. The Harbor Master has determined that concrete, in lieu of wood, is the best and most cost effective material for the sidewalks at the Marina. This decision was based on the fact that the cost of pressure treated lumber has greatly increased due to hurricane "Andrew" and the fact that the construction and installation of wooden sidewalks would be extremely labor intensive and time consuming. The project proposes to match the style and character of the sidewalk installations currently ongoing along Mandalay Ave. including decorative specialty brick. Crews will provide for utility accommodations and pedestrian access as is being done on Mandalay Ave. City staff has been very satisfied with the workmanship and cooperation of MTM Contractors, Inc. in phasing and constructing the same type of work in the Phase 2 sidewalk replacement along Mandalay Ave. and desires that MTM also perform the Marina work. The Marina sidewalk is proposed to be replaced in three phases with the contractor completing installation of the new concrete and brick surface in each phase before starting sidewalk removal in each successive phase. An electrical contract for the replacement of some deteriorated electric lines at the Marina is being recommended under a separate agenda item. This project at a cost of $54,470.00 proposes 1300 linear feet of sidewalk be replaced under Capital Improvement Project 93480 (Marina Sidewalk Replacement). The first quarter, FY1993/94 Budget Review will include a transfer to provide $54,470 out of the $144,000 of unappropriated retained earnings of the Marina fund into this capital improvement project to provide funds for this change order. .., .,. ~~ .::; :; This Change Order also includes an additional 2000 square feet of six inch concrete sidewalk across the Florida Power Company ROW North of McCormick Dr. and on the East side on U.S. 19. 'i; .. .1 :~ i~ The available balance of $158,609 as of November 5, 1993, in the Sidewalk Construction - General Capital Improvement project is sufficient to provide funds for this change order.

",I BACKGROUND: Thirty-two bids were solicited. Eight suppliers responded and offered twelve trucks. There were fourteen no responses and ten no bid ,responses. Of the ten no bid responses, three did not ~ffer the product, six were unable to meet specifications and one schedule would not permit a bid. '/- The low bidder was Municipal Sales at $431,552.00, which was $4,058.52 per truck lower than the recommended supplier - Sun state International Trucks, Inc. The low bidder arranged a trial demonstration of his product for examination by Fleet Maintenance and Solid Waste personnel. The demonstration involved a two-year old vehicle in service in Largo. Examination of that vehicle revealed serious structural cracks on the four corner posts of the body. A poor quality modification of the cab for low entry was evident and resulted in limiting driver visibility. The second lowest bidder, and recommended vendor, provided a sample truck that had been operated in the field for approximately one year. The quality of the cab conversion for low entry to include visibility was far superior. The body was holding up well. No structural cracks or excessive wear in the body were observed. We believe that the best interest of the city of Clearwater would be served by . awarding this contract to the second lowest bidder, Sun State International Trucks, Inc. of Tampa, Florida. . .. These vehicles will be funded through a lease purchase from security Capital corporation. Lease purchase payments for FY 1993/94 will be approximately $78,975. Funding for this purchase was included in the proforma statements approved by the city commission approved on November 15, 1993. The first quarter budget review will include amendments to establish a recycling fund budget as approved by the city Commission. ~ Reviewed by: Legal N/A Budget ~ Purchasing Risk Mgmt.

BACKGROUND: Twenty-five bids were solicited. Four bids were received. There were seven no response and fourteen no bid response. Piper Industries was the lowest bid. On November 15, 1993, the Clearwater city commission awarded a contract for a citywide residential curbside and mUlti-family recycling program to the Solid Waste Division. The program includes the provision of one yellow 18-gallon plastic recycling container to each of approximately 26,500 single-family residences in the city. These recycling containers will be stamped on both sides with the city recycling logo, be manufactured of yellow HDPE with a minimum of 30% recycled content, and contain ultraviolet stabilizer to protect both material and color from breakdown due to sunlight. They are warrantied for five (5) years for material and workmanship. The remaining 1,500 containers will be stored for use as replacements and extra containers for residents on request (replacement bins at no charge and extra containers at cost plus $1.00 handling charge). The recycling program also plans to find and purchase one hundred (100) containers with protective lids, for use where applicable and for testing as to workability and acceptability. .~ , The unused balance of approximately $144,278 in the FY 1992/93 State Recycling Grant included in the Recycling Program capital improved project is sufficient to fund this purchase. ~ , ~ ; " " ~ ; , ~ } 11 Ori 9i nati ng Dept.

A Y PLAN Recommendation/Motion: Approve a new SAMP Pay Plan Range Schedule effective as of October I, 1993. IX] and that the appropriate officials be authorized to execute same. BACKGROUND: The SAM? (Supervisory, Administrative. Managerial and Professional) Pay Plan is a pay pI an which covers all "non-union eligible" employees and was established by City Commission approv- al in 1987. Job classes within the Plan include classes such as Staff Assistant III which are defined as confidential under the State of Florida collecti ve bargaining statute through high level managerial classes such as Department Directors and the Deputy and Assistant City Managers. i: ,. ~! In October, 1992 it was the consensus of the City Commission that Human Resources should conduct a comprehensive survey for the SAMP Pay Plan for Fiscal Year 1993-94. That survey has bee n completed and a review of the data indicated a fairly large number of changes would be in order. At the same time, it was the direction of management that a new rate schedule format would be appropriate. The existing SAMP Plan ranges are variable in the percentage differences be twe en ranges and between the minimum and maximum rates within the ranges. As a result, a recommen- dation was formulated by Human Resources representati ves that a new thirteen (13) range pay schedule be adopted to replace the curren t six teen (16) range pay schedule. The proposed new range format provides that each successive pay range is ten percent greater than the pre c e din g range and each range has 55% spread between the minimum and maximum rate. Proposed allocations of SAMP job classes have also been developed. Subsequent to the development of the proposed range format and class allocations the prop 0 s a I was reviewed wi th representati ves of the Cit.y Manager's Department and then was pre s en te d individually to Department Directors for input. Thereafter, notice was provided to all SAMP employees as to the specific class allocation proposals. An opportunity was provided for individual written input from each SAMP employee as to the issue of internal consistency among the dass allocation proposal, such input to be submitted thruugh their represen tati ve department D i rec to r who were asked to provide their perspective as to the employee's view, Actual dollar rates were not provided to insure that the focus was on the class level relationships and not the actual pay rates. That employee input has been reviewed by a Committee which consisted of the Assistant Reviewed by: Originating Dept: Human Resources Costs: Estimated $ 4, 500. on Commission Action: Legal ..lliA Budget Nl.A Purchasing ML8_ Risk Mgmt. liLA_ CIS lii.A AC M AJ-::~ Other JilA User Dept.: various N/A Current FY o Approved o Approved w/conditions D Denied D Continued to: SUbmit-fed~' ,.by:_ i/ I I! .,>.

A final product was submitted to the City Manager who has concurred in the proposed range format and class allocations. The proposed plan was pri marily based on analysis of the labor market survey data, however, the Review Committee looked at internal equity relationships. The proposed pay range format, the minimum and maximimum rate for each range. and class allocations to ranges is attached. (Also noted are the range assignments 0 f the current SAMP Pay Schedule). Costs: The cost of implementing the new SAMP schedule will approximate $4500. This represents the annualized amount to bring seven (7) employees, whose current rates fall below the minimum of the range to which their job class is assigned to that mtnlmum. No other SAMP employees will receive increases as a result of the changes in this SAMP Pay Plan Schedule.

Laursen, Human Resources Director VIA: ~ II : i Betty Deptula, Assistant City Manager COPIES: H. M. Laursen, Human Resources Director SUBJECT: Proposal For New SAM? Pay Schedule and Class Allocations DATE: November 30. 1993 The Human Resources Department conducted a salary survey for job classes in the SAMP Pay Plan and, as a result of that survey and discussion with representatives of the City Manager's Department proposed a new plan format. The new format reduces the number of ranges in the plan schedule from sixteen (16) to thirteen (13) with each range being ten percent (10%) higher than the preceding range and with a standard differential of fifty-five percent (55%) between the minimum and maximum of each range. With the new pay schedule format, allocations of SAMP job classes were also proposed by Human Resources. Subsequently, all SAMP employees were apprised of the proposed allocation to ranges (but without benefit of range minimums and maximums) and provided the opportunity to express their concerns as to internal relationships. An internal equity review committee of five (5) persons (the Assistant City Manager and four Department Directors) was established to review the tentative allocations proposed by the Human Resources Department as well as the comments of the SAMP employees. \ I I -l This internal equity review committee proposed a number of amendments to the allocation proposal of the Human Resources Department (attachment number 1) and that revised allocation schedule is provided for your review (attachment number 2). Subject to your action in approving a final allocation schedule, we are pre'pared to submit the proposed new SAMP Pay Plan format and class allocations to the City Commission for their review and approval. ~fbfL. ~~ ~-ra> ; ;ft .

The Florida Department of Environmental Protection,. Division of Beaches and Shores, will be accepting project applications from local governments desirous of obtainLng state funding for beach erosion control projects through Mayl,' 1994. Project applications will be reviewed by Department staff and if found eligible, will be submitted as part of the Department's fIXed capital out.lay legislative budget request for FY 1995-96, The Beach Erosion Control Assistance Program was established by the Florida Legislature in order for the Department to carry out the proper state responsibility in a comprehensive long- range statewide plan for beach erosion controL beach preservation, and hurricane protection. Public works projects and studies relating to' beach erosion control, beach preservation, and hurricane protection, are eligible for' state ftihdii1g consideration under the provisions of Section 161.101, Florida Statutes. The program" provides fmancial 2.Ssistance~ upon legislative appropriation, in an amount up to 75 percent' of the non-federal share of project costs for projects which may include, but are not limited 'to the following: Beach restoration and n.ourishment projects Inlet sand transfer/inlet management .__' Dune restoration and revegetation Dune walkover construction Marine habitat mitigation Parking facilities for public access Environmental studies and monitoring Project design and engineering studies Shoreline monitoring studies Enclosed are project application forms which must be completed for each specific project you desire to pursue. The form must be approved by resolution of the local governing body. Please be as specific as possible on each part of the applic;1tion. Only completed project applications submitted anI or prior to, May 11 1994, will be considered. The Department will not consider pdor year applications. An application submitted during a previous year, if not funded by the Legislature, will not be reconsidered. A new project application must be submitted. We encourage you to submit your application(s) as e.arly as possible so that application deficiencies, if existing, can be co~ected prior to the May 1, 1994, deadline. This is p?rticularJy important as an incomplete ~pplication, as of the d~dliDe date, will not be further considered. --~ --.---- "11.." r,.('~ I I t l i I , t j I I ; , I I J .

CITY OF CLEARWATER Interdepartment Correspondence Sheet FROM: Michael ~'. Wright, City Manager U~"c...~ - William C. Baker, Director of Public Works TO: COPIES: Mayor and Commissioners SUBJECT: Commissioner Thomas' Memo Concerning Breakwaters International - A Beach Erosion Control Device DATE: November 1.6, 1993 Some time ago when Commissioner Thomas first mentioned the Breakwaters device I contacted Ms. Tamara Garaffa and discussed her product. I met her later at the Florida Beach and Shores Association annual meeting and received further information as well as a video tape demonstrating the effectiveness of Breakwater's product. Other manufacturer's representatives were present at the meeting, and 1 have a video tape of similar devices manufactured by others. I ! ./ ~ ; >. ~ " i ~ The reef created by the installation of this type device is effective in controlling the erosion of a beach that might be lost due to a strong off-shore current during a storm event, or to what we sometimes refer to as undertow. The reef-type device will not build a beach by intercepting the littoral drift (the movement of sand generally in a north or south direction), which is the prevailing phenomena in Florida. These devices are utilized after beach renourishment to provide protection for the already established beach. While the news article attached to Mr. Thomas' memo is entitled "Concrete Reef May Return Sand to Beach", the entire article speaks to the protection of recently renourished beaches and no where mentions the building of a beach by these devices. I believe these devices do have considerable merit as protection for a beach recently renourished by other means. I have discussed this with Mr. Jim Terry of the Pinellas County Engineering Department who oversees all beach renourishment projects in this area, and have found that he is familiar with this type product.

COPIES: DATE: RE: LED Signs ****************************************************************************** In response to Mr. Shuford's memo, dated November 15, 1993, attached are documents that were sent to me by Jeff West of Hi-Lighter, Inc. Mr. West res~1.rched the use of "Changeable Message Signs" and, it may be important for Mr. Shuford to look over these documents in light of his memo. On the other hand, Mr. Shuford may find that these particular documents have no impact on our Sign Code. Is Mr. Shuford aware that the City has just purchased, for a sum of $12,000, a "Changeable Message Sign" for the Police Department? This sign is used to inform drivers of their speed; of course, it is possible for the speed to change for each automobile. Our Code indicates that for a "Changeable Message" to be in Code the message can be changed only after 24 hours. Therefore, my question to Mr. Shuford is, is the Police Department in violation of City Code? It would appear that changeable messages are a form of communication; therefore, fall under the First Amendment, "Freedom of Speech". Perhaps the arbitrary time of 24 hours should be researched more thoroughly. There are times when it would be a relief to receive information from Staff every 24 hours. Of course, Staff would probably initiate the 24 hours time separation to this Commissioner as well, with joy. Please keep me updated. ATTACHMENT FAT/jej , '.' . " ,', ". .

GUIDELINES FOR 1\1ESSAGI~ LJi::NGTH, EXPOSURE TIME AND DISPLAY FORMAT (1) , ~ Introduction Rending time is simply the time it actually ~ a driver to read n sign message. Exposure thne or il.YAilable. viewing time is the length of thue a driver is within the legibility distance of the message. That is, it is the n1aximurn \irn~~~ to the driver to read a message. Thus, exposure time must always be equal to or greater than the critical reading time selected for design purposes. Exposure time is directly reluted to rnessage legibility distance and driving speed. THE DESIGNER HAS SOME CONTROL OVER THE MINIMUM EXPOSURE TIME OF A MESSAGE. For a given operating speed, exposure time will increase with increasing legibility distance (assu.ming the message is continuously displayed). For example, an overhead sign message legible at 650 ft (197.6 m) will be exposed to drivers traveling at 55 mph (88.6 km/hr) for approximately 8 seconds. \Vith a legibility distance of 1,000 ft (304 m), the message will be exposed for about 12 seconds. Once e,xposure thue requirements have been determined based 011 the operating speed and the longest message, sign design and placement criteria can be established to fulfill olessage legibility rcquirenlents. . IN AN EXISTING SYSTEM, REQUIRED EXPOSURE TIMES DICTATE THE MAXIMUM LENGTJ-I OF MESSAGE THAT CAN BE DISPLAYED~ For a given legibility distance, exposure time will reduce with increased speeds (assuming the message is continuously displayed). For example, an overhead sign message legible at 650 ft (197.6 m) will. be exposed to drivers trave.ling at 40 tnph (64.4 km/hr) for approximately 11 seconds, At 55 rnph (88.6 km/hr). the same message will be exposed for about 8 seconds. Once a sign is installed, the maxinlum exposure time is firmly established. This will control the maximum message length that can be displayed. Driver rending times and consequently, mininlum cxposur~ times of eMS rnessages normally associated with incident management/point diversion, have not been fully . researched in a real-world environment. However, some laboratory research on reading times for both static and CMSs have been reported, This research, coupled with Ihnited incident management/point diversion field experiences, enables the authors to provide sonle preliminary guidelines. 93 . ~~lJl'r~~~~-_... B. Factors Affecting Reading Time At a ~ven driving speed, several factors affect driver reading time of signs having simllar legibility distances. These include; . Driver work load . Message falluJiarily . Display format . Message load . Message length Design guidelines to account [or those factors are presented in the following sections. It makes no difference what communication Iuode is used (visual or audio), one carmot tell everything to the drivers in the limited time available. So, discipline must be exerted to prune the message down to the basics alone. Real-time displays c~ at most, register up to only two ideas: . What is the condition . What should be done Brevity is not only the soul of wit, it is the heart of effective signing. Remember: people will be moving when they see the message. They must therefore also devote time to the traffic and roadway situations, as well a~ distractions while driving. Thus, tbey can only absorb a few words. These words must communicate the basic infonnation. To cope with tile moving, busy, and oftentimes distracted driver, outdoor advertisers recommend that words be kept short and to the point. They suggest that outdoor advertising ideas should register iu about 6 seconds. Sitn.ilar principles hold true for real-time driver infonnation displays. c. Driver Work Load One important consideration in establishing adequate message exposure times is the need of drivers to dme-sbare their atten.tion. to the roadway and traffic with sign reading. Adults can read quite fast while sitting on a recl.iner reading a novel or newspaper or while sitting in a stopped car reading a sign or billboard. While traveling. drivers cannot always devote full attention to sign reading. Drivers must share their attention between information necessary for the driving task which they receive from" the roadway and traffic on the highway with the infonnatioll displayed on signs. Because of tllis tinle..sharing, it will take longer to read a sign than if the d rivers could devote all. their attention to the sign. Drivers search the cnvironnlent for inforolation needed to perforn1 the various subtasks and shifl attention frQnl one information source to another by a process of lond-shedding (2.0). As the complexity of the driving task increases due to extremes in 9t1 , , . . ~ ..i ~ ,.' II ;~~ ;, ) 'h r -. ;. /. ': geometries, heavier traffic volumes, high percentage of large trucks, traffic conflicts, or climatological conditions, lond-shedding is required. Drivers will attend to those information needs that they feel are most important to them. The demands on the driver result in less time available to read the sign nlcssages.

" A UNIT OF INFORMATION MAY BE DISPLAYED ON MonE THAN ONE LINE ON 'lllE SIGN.' HOWEVER, A SIGN LINE SHOULD NOT CONTAIN MORE THAN 1WO UNITS OF INFORMATION. E. Message Length Message length refers to the nurnber of words in a nlcssage. Although message length is somewhat con'elated with rncssage load, load refers to the infonnation content and one unit could consist of one to three words of varying length. TIlERE IS EVIDENCE THAT AN 8-WORD MESSAGE (ABOUT FOUR TO EIGHT CHARACTERS PER WORD) EXCLUDING JlREPOSIT.IO.NS SUCH AS "TO", "FOR", "AT, ETC., IS APPROACHING THE PROCESSING LIMITS OF DRIVERS TRAVELING AT HIGH SPEEDS 02, ll). SIX UNITS (12 WORDS) GREATLY REDUCE THE ABILITY TO RECALL TilE MESSAGE (18.). 95 F. Message Familiarity Another factor that influences sign reading time is driver exp~ctancy and familiarity with what will be displa.yed. Conunuters, having seen several rncssages displayed on the CMS~ develop expectations of 1l1Cssagc; classes and types. Based on previous experience) they tend to gloss over faTTliliar elements of the message and concentrate on those elements that change from one situation to another. (This assumes that standard nlossage formats are used consisten.tly.) For example, once commuters establish expectancies that a portion of the message will read ACCIDENT AT (location)) they quickly identify the form of the word ACCIDENT and concentrate on the "location" information. TIIUS, their reading times reduce with repeated exposure to standardized Inessages. Unfamiliar drivers) on the other hand, seeing the message and perhaps the sign for the first time. must read the entire message. Their reading times will thus be longer than that required for familiar drivers (with respect to the sign and messages). F.l Rendine BniLMessaee ExpO$lJre Times for FnmiliarJ)rivers While traveling, drivers must glance from the road to read a sign and back to the road. Forbes (22) states that during this glance the maximum amount of copy wllich can be read by the ordinary person is three to four familiar words, Mitchell and Forbes (~) recommend that 1.0 second be adopted as the time necessary for a single minimum. glance to guarantee adequate time to read the sign twice, unless they are distracted or their vision is obstructed. The relationship between the minimuIu reading time available and the number of words on a sign are shown in Figure 5-1. 96 Also s~own is the relationship recommended by the British Transportation and Road Research Laboratory (TRRL). The two reJationships are plotted in Figure 5-1 to identify some minimum reading times that should be used for displays. Messages ID.Ust be legible and exposed to drivers for a period of tiole not less than that shown in Figure 5-1. Desirably. longer viewing times should be used. The following examples serve to illustrate driver reading times of selected messages measured in instnlmented vehicle studies conducted by Mast and Ballas (21). TIle data are for familiar drivers (Le., dri.vers who had previously viewed sinl.ilar signs and messages and were thus familiar with the types of signs and messages to expect while traveling on a rural freeway.

An examination of the message shows that the top two lines of the sign (TRAFFIC CONDITIONS/NEXT 2 MILES) actually is a descriptive title for the bottom two lines displayIng problem and action messages. The authors speculate that the "familiar" drivers in the study were concentrating on reading the last two lines.

This reading time is longer than that suggested by Mitchell and Forbes and the TRRL shown in Figure 5.1. The 85th percentile reading time for the 7-unit, 13-word message shown on Sign C was 9.8 seconds. Ac;suming that the title on the first line was learned by the test subjects by previously viewing similar signs, the sign message reduces to 5 information units consisting of 10 words. ~ercenti1e reaQin~ time for tlle 6-unit, lO-word {!1e.sSeie wa~ 2.0 second~ per unit of informatiPn (a.bOllt J s~con~ per wOl.d). It is important to noLe that all of the instrumented vehicle studies were conducted in very light traffic in a rural area where the drivers were in relatively "unloaded" situations. The reading thnes would increase under "loaded" driving conditions. Also, the test subjects knew exactly when a sign message was going to be displayed (when they heard the click of the slide projector), and they read a message that was close to them rather than one at a distance. TIlese ,latter two factors tend to indi.cate that reading times ill a real-world setting would be higher than that resulting frorn the instnlmented vehicle studies (2.5.). F.2 &D.dlnl: and MessB2e-ExpoSu((~ Times for VnfRmlUar Driver~ ~ J . f :~ RESEARCH Wi, .ll!, 12, W HAS INDICATED THAT A MINIMUM EXPOSURE TIME OF ONE SECOND PER SHORT WORD. (FOUR TO EIGHT CHARACI'ERS) OR 1WO SECONDS PER UNIT OF INFORMATION, WHICHEVER IS LARGEST, SHOULD BE USED FOR UNFAMILIAR DRIVERS. ON A SIGN HAVING 12 TO 16 CHARAcrERS PER LINE. 11-IIS MINIMUM EXPOSURE TIME WILL BE lWO SECONDS PER LINE. 99 .Excluding prepositions Four-line CMSs designed to display 13 to 20 characters per line are capable of accommodating about eight short words (not counting prepositions) of the type normally associated with incident managenlent!route diversion situations. . When it is necessary to display long words such as destination or street names, these words should be counted as two short words. Field experience (16.2.9.) has suggested that when an 8.word rnessage is broken into two phrases and the two phrases are sequenced (alternated) an a 2.line display, the guideline of two seconds per message line works satisfactorily. Allowing two seconds per line results in a display time of four seconds per phrase, or a total of eight seconds for the . ... entire messaie. At 55 mph (88.6 krn/hr), it takes about eight seconds for drivers to travel 635 ft. (193 m) (the legibility distance of an 18-inch [46:'cm) character lamp matrix sign); eight seconds of exposure time is, therefore. available at this speed. On highways where the prevailing speeds are greater than 55 mph (88.6 km/hr), less than eight seconds are available to the bighway agency to communicate messages to drivers. It is not known how long messages of more than eight words displayed all at once on a 4.line sign should be exposed to the drivers within the legibility distance. Human facto.rslaboratory studies (12) strongly indicate that long messages displayed on one sign tend to overwhelm drivers, so they cannot scan the message quickly. Thus it may take them longer to read the entire message than if it were separated into two smal1er pl1rases. The appropriate fomlat for a particular situation depends on the type of display, the length of message, and the traffic conditions in which the driver nlust read the sign. Although not all of the variables associated with display requirelnents can be quantified, this section provides sonle guidelines [or enllancing the effectiveness of the display. Loading refers to the work load demands under which a driver must perform. For purposes of simplicity, two categories of loading will be considered: 1) urban area peak period driving (loaded), and 2) urban area off-peak or suburban driving (unloaded). The following descriptions of formats lnay include references to the loading condition. TIlis is not to suggest that there is SOlne IJlagic cut-off point to the amount of message presented, but rather to indicate that one should give consideration to the loading conditions as the length of rnessage increases. . A discrete display is one in which tho entire message is displayed at once. G. Display Formats Equally iUlportant to the length lind exposure time of a messuge is the display format. Display format i.s di.stinguished from message format in that display format refers to the maMer in which a message is displayed, while message format is the arrangement of the message elements. There are three basic display formats to be considered: discrete, sequential, nnd run-on. . A sequential display is one in which the message is broken into parts and displayed one part at a tinle. . A run-on, or moving display, presents a nlessage by IIloving the message continuously across the sign from right to left. Run-on messages are n.ot recommended because they take longer for drivers to read. 100 Ii I J i I i ! G.I tJ Most of the types of real-time displays available use the discrete format where the entire message is displayed at one time. (In some cases, certain lines on the sign may be flashed on and off.) These displays' are typically one to four' lines in length. Following is a description of various displays and tIle recoulmended min.imum exposure time necessary for proper reading of each. Under loaded conditions, the exposure time should be higher than that shown. . A one-line display would appear as follows: l ACCIDENT AHEAD I Minimum 2.0 seconds exposure . A two-Hne display would appear as follows: ACCIDENT AHEAD USE SERVICE ROAD Mininlum 4.0 seconds exposure . A three-line sign, as follows: ACCIDENT AHEAD USE SERVICE ROAD TO ROWLAND Minimum 6.0 seconds exposure . A four-line sign, as follows: ACCIDEN'r AT GRIGGS AVE USE SERVICE ROAD TO ROWLAND Minimum' '8.0 seconds exposure 101 G.1 Sequential displays are those in which parts of tl1e message are displayed in sequence. The message sequence is normally repeated (cycled) several times. There are several ways to display messages sequentially. TIle one best suited to a particular installation will depend on the length of message, the number of lines on the sign, and the length of the words in the message. There are several possib.le format configurations for a one-line sign. The corresponding recommended rninirnum message exposure. sequence element exposure, blank and cycle times, are shown on the next two pages. The recommendations for the exposure times are ba..'ied on data collected in laboratory studies (12). Adjustments to the exposure times may need to be made in the field to fit specific installation requirements. The first type of one-line sign format configuration is a one-word (up to eight characters) per line forulat. . I ACCIDENT I Minimum 2.0 seconds exposure ~ACCIDENT. ~ Minhnum 3.0 seconds exposure (1.5 seconds/sequence ele- ment, no star time required) Cycle ::: 3.0 seconds If a driver first sees the second part of a two-element sequential message, the message should normally be intelligible without delineating the end of each message sequence. However, when the number of seque.nce phrases or elements is three or more, the message would not be as intelligible without delineating the end of a message sequence. WHEN A MESSAGE IS CHUNKED INTO 11IREE OR MORE PHRASES OR ELEME.NTS TIlAT ARE SEQUENCED OR CYCLE ON A SIGN, 3 OR MORE "STARS" OR ASTERISKS SH.OULD BE DISPLAYED ON A FRAME AT 'mE END OF THE CYCLE TO POSITIVELY SEPARATE SUCCESSIVE REPET.lTIONS OF TIlE MESSAGE. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE ASTERISKS BE DISPLAYED FOR 0.5 SECOND WITH A 0.25 SECOND BLANK TIME BEFORE AND AFTER THE ASTERISKS o..a). 102 ..___~-:U":"_____---I.- An alternative to the stars is to have a blank tilne of 1 second delineate the end of message before tbe sequence is repeated and no more than 0.25 second between sequences (12, 2.6). Research (18) indicated that the stars are more effective than using a blank time. A question often arises as to whether the luessage should be displayed at a slow rate so that it .is displayed once whHe tIle driver is in the 1.egibility zone, or wllether the message should be displayed at a faster rate and exposed twice to the driver. Proving ground studies (18) indicate that on 2-sequence messages, up to 4 words or 2 units of infonnation per sequence can be displayed at rates as fast as 0.5 second/word without loss of recall. The driver can see the message cycle twice. Messages longer than. 4 words or 2 units should be cycled at a speed of at least 1 second/word. As previously indicated, 1 see/word with repetition is recommended. Another feature which nmst be considered for a sequential message with three or .more elements is that many drivers will enter the sign legibility zone and begin reading the sign in the middle of a message sequence. In some cases, the informatio.n may not be intelligible unless the drivers read the Inessage from beginning to end. Increasing the "normalll minimum exposure time requirelnents insures that the sign letter size selected will be large enough to enable most drivers to read the message in a logical order, thus enhancing driver understan.ding. Until more field experience dictates otherwise, the authors are recommending that at least 3 seconds of added thne be used.

However, it has been shown that 8-word messages are too long for this type of format.

Comparable to overhead signs. drivers cannot necessarily read the message on side-mounted CMSs wIlen they are near the sign. Mitchell and Forbes (ZJ) found that when a sign is greater than . 100. measured horizontally from the cente.r of the driving lane. the driver's ability to rend the sign message is severely dim.inished. King (21) provides a rather complete development of this concept with respect to lateral sign placement. Figure 5-3 serves to illustrate the effect sign lateral placement has on the nearest distance at which the sign is visible. In Figure 5-3, point C is the location where drivers can begin to read the message; point B is the location where tlte message can no longer be read by drivers in the inside lane because the sign falls outside the normal field of vision. The distance at which the sign must becotne legible is CD which can be expressed for tangent highway sections as: CD = V{tV + [5 + (n - l)L + ~L + ~] cot 10o}2 + [8 + (n. - l)L + ~ + ~]2 For a 20 ft.

However, the distance parallel to the freeway will normally be the distan.ce most convenient to measure. The difference between tbe two distan.ces is negligible. Thus, the computed distance CD can be used to measure required legibility distance parallel to the freeway. ;:4.: ""~';' ,---'Y .... '. \-.. ____ FLO/UDA DEPARTAIBNT OF TRANSPOR7>1 TION : .

Such a sign may be changed manually, by remote control, or by automatic controls that can "sense" the conditions that require special sign messages. . Variable message signs, with more sophisticated technologies, are gaining more widespread use to inform motorists of variable situations, particularly along more congested traffic corridors. It is recognized that due to technological limitations many variable message signs cannot conform to the exact sign shape, color and dimensions specified in these standards. Because technology i:s developing so rapidly in this area of signing. this Manual has not specified detailed standards for variable message signs. Nevertheless, it is essential that variable message signs ascribe to the principles established in the Manual, and to the extent practicabl~, with the design and applications prescribed '"-..--'" herein. Highway and transportation organizations are encouraged to develop and experiment with variable message signs (sec. lA-6) and to carefully ~valuate installations where used 50 that spedfic Manual stand3rds may be incorporated in the future. 2A-6 Excessh'c Use of Signs Care should be taken not to install too many signs. A conservative use of regulatory and warning signs is recommended as these signs, jf used to txcess, tend to lose their effectiveness. On the other hand, a frequent display of route markers and directional signs to keep the driver informed of his location and his course will not lessen their value. 2A-7 Clnssific1l1ioll of Signs FunctionaHy, signs are classified as follows: Reglllatory signs give notice of traffic laws or regulations. Warning signs call attention to conditions on, or adjacent to, a highway or street that are potentially hazardous to traffic operations. Guide signs show route designations, destinations, directions, distances, services, points of interest. and other geograph.ical, n~cJ catioonl, or cultural inforflHltion. ~_4' 2A-3 @ 001/002 11-27 (c) Elav.2 . ~ J ( ~\' .' ~ .' .\' ~l <I- ';i ,i " " ~ 11/10/03 13:00 '6'202 366 ~~.19 HHS&lITV l4J 002/002 lA-6 Manual CllRogcs, Interpretations and Au(hority to Expc..i~llent Continuing advances in technology will pmduce changes in the '_' highway, the vehicle, and in driver proficiency and portions of the system of control devices in this Manual will require updating. In addition, unique situations often arise for device applications which may require interpretation or clarification of this Mal'lUul. It is important to have a. procedure for recognizing these developments and for introducing new ideas and modifications into the system.

CITY OF CLEARWATER Interdepartmental Correspondence TO: Mayor and Commissioners FROM: Cynthia E. Goudeau, City Cler~ SUBJECT: Citizens to be Heard COPIES: Michael J. Wright, City Manager M. A. Galbraith, Jr., City Attorney , , . ,1 ), :" .~ DATE: December 8, 1993 .~ .~ J ;1 ~ \l ; ~ 1 ~ ft 'f My proposal for providing for Citizens to be Heard on Items not on the Agenda, at the beginning of a meeting, is to amend Rule lO to create a new I (C) that reads: C. Citizens to be Heard re Items not on the Agenda. (Limited to lO speakers with each speaker being allowed a maximum of 3 minutes. Speakers will be required to register with the City Clerk prior to the start of the meeting. Speakers will be called in the order in which they registered with the Clerk.) I In order to facilitate this procedure a representative of the Clerk's Department will be present in the Chambers, beginning at 5:30 p.m.. A sign-in sheet will be used, rather than cards, in order to assure the speakers are heard on a first come basis. Individuals would also be allowed to sign up in the Clerk Department anytime prior to 5 :30. I considered not putting a limit on the number of speakers as long as a total of 30 minutes was allowed. However, I felt it would be better to be able to assure those registering that they would indeed have an opportunity to speak at the beginning of the meeting. I am not proposing the same rule for the daytime meeting due to not being able to indicate at what time the meeting would start. If the Commission wishes to implement this for the daytime meeting.. I recommend this be done prior to the Pension Trustees and CRA meetings. If you have any questions, please let me know. ~ .. , j J I , i) t ,~ ? '/ 1
