on Watl(lns Road. He stated that Watkins Road was the dividing line between Belleair
and Clearwater and the To\'1l! of Belleair wished to resurface the road and had asked
Clearwater to share in the project. He stated that there was a serious drainage
problem in that area as the Clearwater side was about one foot lower than the Belleair

equipment was being used to cut the vacant lots as required by the Lot Cleaning
Resolutions. He suggested a thorough study as to whether the charges for the lot
mO\'1ing \'lere high enough to cover the costs :l.nvolved and that addi tional equipment
be purchased and additional men be hired to do the work without sacrificing the
maintenance of the pal'l~s and parl(ways. The Mayor suggested after the cost study was
made it might be well to approach some private contractor for an estimate for doing
all of the lot cleaning work, The Manager stated he wOt..!ld have a cost analysis
