June 261 1973 '. - PRESENT: Lewis Homer, Chairman Charles Gallol'1ay, V. Chairman Jos~ F. Cornelius C. Raymond Lee M. E. Palmer, Exect. Dir. Joe R. t~olfe Brooks Carter Bill Reed Merrett R. Stierheim Paul Bergmann Mike Taroby Darwin Frank Mr. Schaub, Naas Bros. Mr. Berryma n 11 n Mr. & Mrs. J. A. Ogg John Chesnut, Sr. The Chairman opened the meeting, and with a quorum present, asked for approval of the minutes of the meeting of ~y 29 and the continuation meeting of June 5, 1973, With no stated objections, the Chairman declared the minutes accepted. .. .. Kr. Cornelius, Chairman of Finance and Budget Committee, was asked to make his reports. Mr. Cornelius stated, that for the first six months of the year, the actual expenditures are below the budget amount. A copy of the financial state- ment as of June 30, 1973 is attached# Hr. Cornelius then reported on the proposed budget for 1974, pointing out that it is for board consideration only, and will be offered for approval at the July meeting. He added that we are still on a bare-bones budget, being only $1,153.00 over the amount of the 1973 budget. He asked that a copy of the 1974 budget as proposed and a projected cash flow picture be forwarded to all the members as soon as possible for consideration well ahead of 'the July meeting. The budget will be attached to the minutes of this meeting. Mr. Cornelius added that as the board reviews the proposed budget, they will notice that no bank borrowing is anticipated for the year 1974, except for some worthwhile special project. No interest therefore will be paid in the 1974 budget, if this bueget is adopted. The Chairman asked for a motion for approval of the cur:rent cash report, which was made, seconded and passed. The Chairman introduced Mr. Schaub and Mr. Berryman of Maas Brothers, and stated we are bere to try to resolve something in the area of needed parking facilities in the core area of the CBD. Mr. Berryman and Mr. Schaub stated that although they feel the need for increased parking for their store, they are not here to ask for strictly Maas Brothers parking) rather more c ore area parking in the CBn. This is because it is well known that many people use the existing lots at Maas Brothers, but do not necessarily go into the store, wbich is all right. Hr. Schaub explained that due to the ownership of the store and the surrounding parking lots, except those owned by the City, that to go into a j oint venture as has bOCII ~ngge8'ted, is not acceptable to the owners. Therefore, something else must be done on Ci'ty-owned property. The Chairman reminded the board that the proposition given to Maas Brothers, which is not acceptable, still is open as a development, over, 'We will say, City o,med land where air rights may be utilized. . 1. ,", . , .,. .~' .;:'.

He added that whet is needed is a second study to pinpoin~ two or three locations where parking is greatly needed. A further feasibility study then can point the way as to financing, structure design, etc. tire Stirehe im discussed the mtlny [ncets of the proolem and stated that the need for a site study is evident. ~urely, we want to avoid any f rther bad publicity which came about at the previous attempt to do this job. Mr. Frank suggested that in his opinion the board should consider sharing the cost of the needed studies with the City, adding) "\~here could the board better spend its tax receipts?" Mr. Cornelius stated, ~e should share the cost of a site study as a board and to include others who might benefit from such a study. Spreading the cost around a bit would get other interested businesses also to help. Mr. Stierheim stated, that it is timely that this item be placed on the agenda for commission consideration, and added that should this thought be accepted by the board, that he ~ill place the item on the July 5 agenda for presentation by our people to look for an answer from the commission. A motion was made, seconded and passed to prepare a letter asking for a hearing before the City Commission on July 5, 1971, on the subject of parking facilities in the CBD. The Chairman opened the subject of a CBn zoning ordinance to take care of the problems of high priced land and redevelopment of this land. He stated that he had been advised that no~ is the time to go before the commission and request adoption of an ordinance we believe we can live with. Mr. Bergmann explained that He Ghould not ask for an adoption for one build ing, which mayor may not get off the ground; ratner ask for limitations which we can live with and expect that the Planning and Zoning Board will grant exceptions when required. This is the system used at present, and although not perfect, still does make exceptions possible when they are reasonable. Mr. Bergmann added that the new ordinance should allow for bonuses to permit exceptions to height, etc. when they are fair. The matters of parking requirements for commercial buildings, setbacks, height, etc. should be for the CBD only. The Chairman added, the trouble is with developers, who like to be governed by written laws rather than to be governed by people in the absence of written zoning limitations. Mr. Bergmann went on to say that he \-1i11 have an ordinance ready for the Planning and Zoning Board for their first meeting in August, and a decision read~ for the City Commission for the second meeting in August (August 2'0). Mr. Stierheim reviewed the several projects underway now; including the loop road, and the extension and re-alignment of N.E. Cleveland Street. He added that there is a new aligrunent for the loop, nO\4 approved by the commission, and that County approval is needed and expected. '~ith condemnation of a 'parcel of land, construc- tion can get underway. He added, that within a year we will see real structural progress with the new road. The Re-alignment of N.E. Cleveland is of first priority, which includes the rebuild- ing of Laura Street, through to North Ft. Harrison via Hendricks. All this will be done prior to the closing of the first block of N.E. Cleveland Street 1:0 traffic. 2. ,{ ;^, .... ',. ,!,' . "'. ~, .t.';,..... " ~~.r~~:,r.~;:l .;: ~.4~}~~:~Aji5:l0.~,J~J.~..':<'J\.r~~'..r..~'~:...: :',' ;" .,~)/j!.~,:v!'f;~'ri<"~t\t~i~#JW~,\"<,-.

Clearwater Downtown - page S The Chairman read a letter to Mr. Stierheim expressing the feelings of every member of the board and wishing him the best of everything as the new County Administrator. A motion was made, seconded and passed, to let Mr. Stierheim know that everyone present agrees with the letter read to them. The matter of future joint meetings was raised by the Chairman. He asked for comments from those present. Mr. Stierheim suggested that because of the press for time being imposed upon the commissioners, that the best way for us to get our day in court is to go before the commission during their regular meetings, as is the policy of the Housing Authority. It was agreed that in the event of a problem which needs to be aired before the commission, we might call a special board meeting. Otherwise, we might better bring our desires to the commission by getting on the agenda whenever desirable. The next meeting will be on July 31, 19Y5, at which time we wish to make a proposal to the city regarding completion of the Beautification of Cleveland Street. M. E.
