A Public Heari~ was called on the construction of an 8 inch sanitary sewer, lift station and rorce main for Lots 5 to 9, Block E, Lots 8-14, Block D, Highland Pines Subdivision. The City Engineer explained that the project was in the area of the Boswell ShoppLng Center and that a cheek for $4,270.00 ~rom Mr. G. W. Boswell for the estimated coat was in escrow at this time. The City Attorney asked the Engineer if the adve~tisement should not have read Pine Ridge Subdivision instead of Highland Pines Subdivision. Upon receiving an affirmative reply, the Attorney advised re-advertisi~ and rescheduling the pUblic hearing to make it completely legal. Commissioner Watkins moved that the project be re-advertised for a Public Hearing to be held on August 18, 1958. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Fields and carried unanimously. The Manager presented two bids received to purchase an accounting machine for the Finance Department and recommended the National Cash Register machine at $5,845.00 over the Burroughs at $5,842.50 as the Finance Department already has one National machine and another would have the advantage of standardization plus the fact that their automatic dollar sign protection is more desirable. He pointed out that there was only a dirrerence of $2.50 in the bids.

The motion was seconded by Commissioner Fields and carried unanimously. The Mayor announced there had been numerous complaints relative to skiing in certain areas in Clearwater Bay. The Harbormaster stated the residents are quite concerned about their docks and boats from the wash of the skiers and recommended that an area adjacent to the North or South side of the Causeway be deSignated as a Skiing area but it would require dredging to keep the skiers out of the boat channels. The City Attorney reviewed the laws on the subject as set out under Ordinances 623 and 633, and a Florida Legislative Act of 1955. Mr. Herod Goreage of 158 Brightwater Drive, suggested that signs be placed at launching points stating the regulations so that strangers will be informed of them. He also suggested the possibility of buoys being installed as a warning to skiers. Mr. Augustus Mueller, l5~ Devon Drive, and Mr. Paul Hoffner, 145 Devon DTive, com- plained of the skiing between the first and second fingers of the Beach. Mr. John Ford, President of the Clearwater Ski Club, and Mr. H. Allen Edelman, Acting President of the Clearwater Beach Resort Association were present also.
