P, Cornelius Charles Galloway C. Raymond Lee H. E. Palmer, Exec, Director C r? Paul Bergmann, Planning Director Bob Taylor Harry Tripp Darwin Frank Bxooks Carter The Chairman opened the meeting stating that we planned to meet with the City Commission, but because of the long session yesterday, the Commission members were not able to attend He added that the regular board meeting held on May 2q did not have a quorum and is continued today when a quorum is present. The minutes of the May 27 meeting are attached to these minutes to be considered for approval by the members, The Chairman continued, stating that with the help of Paul Bergmann, who is preser?t? several items may be considered which are important to our progress, He added, we are only asking for advice from Mr. Bergmann and must avoid putting him on a spot, A subject discussed was the pxoposal made to Maas Bxothexs executives by the Board to consider a dual purpose structure on their property west of the present store building to house amulti-level parking facility, greatly needed, and an apartment tower above, This proposal_is this day being considered in New York by Maas Bxothers and a word about their decision is expected soon, Mr. Cornelius voiced support for residences on the perimeter of our CBD area as being desirable for residents and the area as well, Reference was made to the Orlando plan fox redevelopment. The Chairman stated, with a project in hand such as the Maas Bxothers project, he will arrange for a meeting with the principals in Orlando and our financial people to explore its application in Clearwater, The Chairman asked for a study to be made with the help of our financial institu- tions to explore why people are, in hie opini?in, preferring to buy condominium apartments rather than single family residences. He added, "If people prefer to live in condominiums, should we tell them "no", you shouldh't come to this eommun- ity," The question of the recent proposal put before the City Commission to limit all buildings to seven floor height was considered. The Chairman voiced the opinion expressed by the Board, stating "such a limitation could be fine for Govern- ment, but intolexable for investors," He added that the Downtown Board is entitled to an expression from the Commissioners as to how they feel. Mr. Bergmann responded, stating: that the City Commissioners may grant variances to the zoning laws, and that he would welcome any project brought before the Planning and Zoning Board where variances are required, He added that the Commis- sion would listen and might grarrt the needed variances. Mr, Cornelius stated, "but don't go overboard on a height limitation." He added, "The downtown limit of l50 feet height we now have is adequate. But cutting it to seven floors would kill the Downtown Redevelopment program." The Chairman thanked all present for attending this morning meeting, adding that he will continue to press for establishment of common ground onwli?to continue our efforts to redevelop our downtown areas, M.
