The meeting was called to order at 5:15 P.M. by the chairman of the Board.
The Minutes from th January meeting were approved. The Financial Statement for January
was aiso approved.
Joe McFate, II gave brief presentation on Tax Increment Financing. He stated that the
C~R.A. (Community Re evelopment Agency) was established in 1981 after determining that
there were blighted onditions in the downtown area. The effect of which was to create
a trust fund in which the city and county contribute to each year. They. each contribute
an amount of increas d taxes they receive because of increased assessed property values
in the downtown area. The first year for receiving those funds was 1982/83 and in the
amount of just under $50,000. Last year the amount received was $55,000 and this year,
although not yet received, should be around $60,000. Next year it should increase to
approximately $75,000 and the following year it is expected to increase by another
$60,000 to $100,000 ue to the impact of Clearwater Square and Barnett Bank. At the
present time there is approximately $88,000 on r.and. The CRA is indebted to the city
for $300,000 for th Jannelli property purchase. The agency has also entered into an
agreement with J.K. Financial and Coachman Center to construct a parking garage in
connection with these two projects, each of which will involve about a million and a half
dollars. It is the plan for the agency to sell over a million and a half dollars in
bonds to pay back the city the $300,000, and to build the first two floors of the parking
garage of Clearwater Square. He stated that the projected revenues over the next few
years would not cove this debt service. There are no known other agreements that the
Agency has entered into to expend future TIF funds.

Jim Carpenter reported that Bob Stiff, Bill O'Mal1ey and himself had a meeting last
week with John Richter regarding compromises on the new proposed Land Development Code
as it affects the downtown district. Mr. Richter left the meeting with the input of
the members and indicated that that portion of the code would be reviewed before
finalization of the code.
Pete Woodham gave a summary of the various committees and sub-committees of the Chamber
of Commerce and indicated that several of these committees are involved in activities
relating to the downtown. He also stated that none of these committees are duplicating
the efforts of the 0.0.8. and that he wanted to attend all the meetings he could at the
D.D.B. and keep a close relationship.
Jim Carpenter announced that the D.D.B. has been invited to St. Petersburg DICO for
a visit and an exchange of ideas. Everyone needs to decide on a convenient time for
the Board to visit. Please call our office to set up a time. Alan Bomstein suggested
that we also check with DICO in regards to the organized trips that they take to other
downtowns that are similar to this area and perhaps we, D.D.S. or other interested
parties, go along with them. We also have been invited to visit the Tampa Downtown
Authority by Andy Hamm.
Tom Brown reported that to his knowledge all the letters to the property owners were sent,
in relation to the Property Standards Ordiance and that there was not any problems.
Jim Sheeler of the Planning Dept. reported on the progress of the sidewalk project.
It was agreed by the Board that the pattern was acceptable, however the workmanship
needed improved. The next section which will be worked will be in front of Alan's
property. After the Board has an opportunity to view this section, it will be decided
what futher action to take.
Bill OIMalley reported on the National Main Street application and fund raising activities.
The application will be sent before the March 1 deadline and the fund commitments to
date are in excess of $10,000 which is actually just the beginning. We are looking for
a $60,000 fund commitment figure by the mailing of the application. A meeting date
was set for 5:15 on Thursday February 28th to bring the Board up-to-date.
Lillian Trickel and Rose Phifer brought up the matter of the urgency for visible parking
in the downtown area. Ms. Trickel stated that there are several merchants that are
presently hanging on by a shoestring to their businesses due to lack of parking for
customers. She suggested that buildings be razed to use the surface as visible parking
lots. There was much discussion on this matter, but no action was taken at this time.

The meeting was adjourned at 8:15 P.M.
