Mr. Krentzman also st.ated t.hali he had represen'tBi one of the property owners in the sale and therefore did not wish to participate in the discussion. Mr. All- bri t.ton said it was his opinion t.ha Ii Secticn 5A, SuhseGti. on 9, of the Zoniilg Ordinance 627, contemplated actu.L,;11 physical contact of tre adjoin~hg properties, but on previous occasions, the Commission had taken the position ~hat since privat.e property did not int.ervene but only t.he street or a n alley lay bet\rieen liWO properties t.hat they could be considered abu~ting. it was his opinion that t.he fact. that this proposed parking area was now zoned R-2 and would adjoin the R-4 area parking lotinstead of the Business zone would not. prevent, such use of the property. Mr. H. Lane Coachman spoke on Vr. Ewing'~ behalf. In reply to a comMent; from Commisfdoner Roberts about the people ,leaving Howard's Auction by driving over lihe curbs instead of out ~he driveways> Commiss~oner S~rang stated he understood the ll.anager ani the 'l'rafflc Depar"men~ 'Were conferring with ~Ir.

Ordinanc e; h~ felt that unt il a complete master plan for Clearwaterhas been developed that this Commission should not bind futux-e COlIIIli ssions by d edicat.inl~ the remaining pro pe rty for public use. 'rhe Mayor statied that he was opposed tio dedica~in~ the area irrevocabl~ now as t.he titTle may come when tm public will dema nd other use in th ese areas but ,he thought the' people on the Beach should be consult.ed in the preparat:.ie:n of the Imster plan. Commissioner Roberts said that 'the people living on Clearwater~each feel very strongly that this property should be used for public purposes, and since inroads were being nadefinto it by leases, they fear the City ~ill continue toe policy of rent.ing parts of it for collllrercial purposes with the result that there will soon be no public property available.

A master plan for Clearwater should be a progeram for tm orderly develop- ment of the City in the years of rapid growth that lie ahead. It should cover all bf che facilit.ies that go to make up the City and t hi t influence its gro'Wth, and are affected by it s growth. Specifically t.he master plan should cover: 1. 'j,'he purpos~ and obje ctives of t.he plan as directed by cl'e City Commission. Probable growth of the City in populati~n, direction, area, and ra~es of growth,! Economic influences and resources affecting growth. Land use and zoning - present and future. Housing - including improvement of sub-standard housing. Street. s a rrl roadways, traffic movement, and parking. Public t:.ransportation both freig;ht and r:assenger, including railroads, buses, t..rucka" ani air. SChools, parks, playgrounds, libraries, and recreat.i~nal racilities. Utiili~ies including water supply, eleccric power, sanitary and storm sewer systems, fUel gas, postal and other communciation systems. Public buildings - existing and probable fu~ureneeds. Public safety - fire am }'clice protect ion. Waterways, harbors, a~d marine. Financial.. Approxj.mate est.imates of tIE cost of each of the improve- ments visualized in all of the above elements of the plan. Financial resources and means of -financing. Legisla~ion and ordinances needed to implement. the plan. Co-operat ion ani co-ordina~tion with County, Stat.e and Federal govern- ments. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. e. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. Prior st.udies and surveys of specific problems which the Cit.y Commission has had made should be used in the preparation of a mast.er plan. Plans prepared by the State Road Depart.osrL for streets and highways alii studies made for the City, such as those on water supply and. raffic, should beincluded in the master pla 11 1:.0 the exterrl ~hat they are approprLl~e. It is obvious that the necessar y studies, surveys, am the preparation of a plan of such scope cannot be accomplished by t.re Planni.ng !:Soard without a highly t.rained and experienced st.aff. '1'he Board can supervise the project. but most. of it.s members are not able to give full ~ime t.o Planning Board activities. It 'Will be necessary to employ professional help to do t b9 job. It can be done as f olloiis ~ 1. By engaging a recOg~:L.~~d firm which sp ecializes in such work and which has a st.aff taa t. is skilled and experienced. 2. By orga.nizing a department wit. hin the Ci t.y go vennment and employing a group of specialists in the field of ci~y planning, Who would become full-~ime City employees. 'j,'here are several alternaliives between the two methods given above, such as employing a consultant t.o supervi se the work of a group of full-t.ime Oi ty em ployee s. It is the recQ~endation of the Planning Board that t.he City ~ommdssion authorize the Board to investiga~e all methods of accomplishing the work, the end in view of arriving at a aefinit.e recommendation. This wil~nvolve inter- vie~ing representatives of professional planning firms, and may necessitate expenditures for bringing them to Clearwa~er or ~ravel t.o their headquarters. It \olill be possible to obt.ain some help from residen~s or local organ- izat.ions, that will reduce cost. and~ve time. And further, the Board believes it ~ould be advisable to employ ci~izen parcicipation excensively, in ~he form of commit.tees of influential public sPrited resident.s who could give invaluable advice and some of t.heir t.ime duri ng t. he period or preparat ion of the plan. A plan in which there has men broad cit.izen participation will avdd many errors and will be accept.ed by the communi~y wit.h minimum opposi~1on. 'l'he board is unable at; this time to offer an estimate of t. he cost of tre- parat.ion of a mast.er plan. An estimats of cost can only be made if and whEm t.he Cont.inued , ';: ~' , " ,...~l' ~,.:. ,', ,", '. ,,', . .:::: ....~-:. '~:<,~' ~'. , ,", .' ~.''i,'':''''r";"..,,.r:' ". . . >-~"., -.

It is known that. the Federal Government has programs for aiding city plD.nning under which Olearwater can obtain financial assistance up to 50 percent of the cost of preparing the plan. It is also impor.tant to r~cognize t.hat the complet.ion of a master plan is only the beginning of plannin~ and executing the projects included in the p1an~ Following its completion full ime City employees should keep the plan up-to-date ~s conditions change. And most of ~he projected improvements and added facil- ities comtemplated by the plan will require a grea~ deal of' detail work by ~ngineersJ .financial men, accQuntants, and other specialist.s, bef'ore they can be execut. ed. sd Respectfully yours, (s{ Arthur l~.

Cent.ralization of act.iw.1ties. 2. Decent.ralizat.ion of a~tivities. Considerati on of both ofi:'.he dbove methoss lead to the fo llowing conclusions: A. N'o adequate area, of City-owned land J ot.her t.han t. ha t }r esent.ly being used for t.his activit.y, is of sufficient. size tocbtain the accivities in a centralized location. B. Decentralization creates the expensive problem of excessive ma~intenance and the building of many separate festroom facilities. After consideration of t he above outl.inEid problem, the Board recommends: 1. 'l'OOt. the oresent facilities be im~oved by theEl'~ct1on of toilet and .. storage facilitieso Initiation of immediate st.udy for to he extension, on the pres-ent s1t.~. of the pres8'1t f'flcilities to its naximum use. 'j'he Board f~. ther 5ugge sts: A. Studies be inst1tued with the Park Committee of the Cit.y Commission ani the County School Board with the view toward joint usage, as neighborhood recreation facilities, of available SQhool play- grounds. Other s~a~es have awakened to the economic waste and community loss of res~ricting the use of :S'choon1f'acilities to purely curr~ular activ~ties. Now, especially in areas ~here daylight saving is pnacticed, the grounds are in full~use in late afternoons and early evenings and throughout the daylight hours o~ the st1IllIl'er vacation. 2. 3. B. Instituee studies of the requirements of other types of League activities, such as Pony Le~ue, Babe Ru~n League and others so that it may be co-ordinated with the initial program out1in~d in item two above.

It shou3d cover aZl �f the faczZiizes that go to make up the 'City and tYgt intlnence its growtk�, and are aifeci;ed by it s growth. Specifically Lhe master plan should cover: 1. Y'he purpose and objectives of �he plan a,s direci;ed by tne CiLy �omanission. 2, Probable gr�wth of the City in pcipulation, direc�ion, area, and rabes of growth, 3, Economic influences and resourees aifecting grawth. 4. Land use and zoning - present and future. 5. Housing - includi ng improvement of sub-standard hous;.ng. 6, Streets arri roadways, traffic movement, and parking. 7. Public transportation both freight and Fassenger, including railroads, buses, trucks; arrl airo $, Schools, parks, playgrounds, libraries, and recreatian�l facilities. 9. Utilities including water supply, electric power, sanitary and storm server systems, fuel gas, postal and other cammunciation systems< 10. Public buildings - existir� and probable fuzuze n�eds. 17�, Public safety - fire arri galice protection. 12. Waterways, harbors, and ma'rine. 13. Financial. Approximate estimates of the cost of each of the improvE� ments visualized zn all of the above elements of the plan. Financial resources and msans of _f inan�ing. 11�. Legislation and ordinar.ces needed to implemexli the plan. 15. Co-operat ion arsi co-ordinan�ion wi�h County, Szate and Federal govern- ments. Prior studies �nd surveys of specific prcblems which the Cxty Co�mission has had made should be used in the preparation of a mastEr plan. Plans p�epared by t he Stat e Road Departms r� for streets and highways ax�d studies made for the City, such as those on water supply and traffic, should beincluded in t he master plan to the extendthat they are appropriate. It i� obvious th�t the necessar y studies, surveys, and the preparation of a plan mf such scope cannot be accomplished by tY� Planning Board without a highly trained and experienced sta.ff. !he Board can supervise the project but most o� its mombers are not able to give full Lime to Planning Board activitiesr Tt will be necessary to emplog professional help io do t he job. It can be done as f oTZo�:s Y l, By engaging a recegrr,��t�d £irm whi,ch specializes in such work and which lias a staff tnat is skilled and experienced. 2. By organizing a departmen� within the Ci�y goveanment and emplaying a group of spscialists in the field of city planning, i'?ho would become full-time City employees, There are several alternatives between the two methods given above, such as emp].oying a consu.ttant �o supervise the v�rork of a group of full-time City employees. It is the recommendation of the Planning Soard that the City �omaiission authorize the Board to investigate allrcethods of accomplishing the worky the end in view of`arriving at 3 definite recommendation. ^this will�invoi�e inter-- viewin� representatives of professional plannin� firms, and m�:y necessitate expenditures for brznging them to C�:e�rwater or travel to t heir headquarters. It will be possible to obtain some help from residenLs or 1 ocal organ- izations, thai; wxll reduc� aos� and �ve time. And further, L-he Board believes it would be advisable to employ eitizen participati�n ext�nsively, in L he form o:f cammitLees of influential public slirited. residents who could give invaluable advice 2nd some of their time during the period or pre}�aration of the plan. A plan im which there has baen broad citizen participatian will avdd manp errors and will be accepted by the communii;y with minimum opposiAion. 'lhe �oard is unable aU this time to offer an estimate of the cost o£ �e- pa:aLion of a master plan. �n estimate of cost can only be made if anci when the Continued r CI`l'Y t`A�f255I0N ME�T'IIvC� February 4, 1957 Continued City �ommission directs �he Board as to �he procedure �hab should be f�llowed. It is kr_own that �he Federal Government has programs for aiding city planning under which CZearwater can obtain fYn�nciaZ assistance up to §O percent of the cost of preparing the plan. It is also irapo'c.tant to racognize that the compla�ion of a master plan is enly the beginnir� of piannin and executing the projects include�i in the plan. Following ir,s completion full�ime City employees should lcaep the p].an up-to-date as condiziorzs changa. 41nd nost of che pxojected improvements and added facil- �.ties ca�templated by the plan wiZl requzre a grea� deal o.f detail work by engi:neers, financial men, accnuntants, and �ther specialists, before th�y can be execut ec�. � Res ectfully yours, �s�A�Ghur N,, Kruse Clearwa�er Flanning Board Chairman February l, 1957 �� :� . T�e Honorable NSayor-Comnissioner The Board of Commissi ones�s City of Clearwat er Clea�^waier, Florida Gentlemen: Re: Little Lea�,te Activitze:'s Pursuant to your xnstructions, dat ed January :'21, lg5'7, we haye met with the C�itg Coumission�s Park �ommittee and dis�cu5se�i zhe problem from the following vievapoints: 1. �enLralization of act�:witi,es. 2. Decentralizaiion o#' activities, Consic�eration of both of the above methods lead to the following conalusions: A. no adequate area, of City-owned land, otiher than that gesently being used for this aci;ivity, is of sufficient siz� �oobtain the activities in a centralized location. B. Decentralization creates tne expensioe problem of excessive ma�iintenance and the building of rnsny sepa,��aLe f'estroom facilities. After consideration of �he above outlir_�d problem, the Board recommenda: 1. That the present faci].ities be �m�•aved by the�ction of toilst and storage faciliLies. 2. Initiation of immedizte study for t he extension, on the aresent 'site, of the presa�t facilities to its m�ximum use. 3. The Bn�rd f�ather suggests: A, S�.�dies be inst�tued with the Park Committee of the Ci�.y �ommission arrl the County School Baard with the view to�aard joint usage, as neighborhood recreatian facilities, of availabZe sahool play- grour,ds. Other staties have awaksn�d to the eco7amic waste and community loss of restricting the use of :s`eY�;o4�.lf'acilities to purelp currkacul�r activi`„ties. Now, especially in areas where day��ght saving is psactzced, the grounds are in full�use in late afte.rnoons and early evenings and thrat�ghout the daylight hours �f the summer vacation. B, Institu�e studies of the r equirements of other types of League activities, sueh as Pony I.eague, Babe Ru�h League and others so that it may be co-ordinated with the initaal program outlin�d a.n item two above. The Board, if directed, will undertake to n;�;.e �uch reports co-orinating with the City Engineexing Department and such other agencies ^.s are necesary if it is the desire ox the Commisionm.
