Honorable Sirs:
'Ve, the undersigned property owners of Clearwater Beaoh, res-
pectfully beg to bring to your attention the fact thAt only recently
some ugly, old and delapidHted shacks were permitted to and have actu-
ally been set u-p on a lot in that subdivision known as "Replat of
Clearw~ter Beech Park" amidst what are otherwise modest but neatly
appearing, and even expensive homes nnd cottages.
This, at once nnd of itself, has created a condition ~hich,
if allo~ed to continue, will be producive of disastrous future prospects
not alone detrimental to the interest of present property owners who
have invested in that subdivision any way from a modest amount of money
to a small fortune, but also to the beauty and the future attractive-
ness of the Beach so much needed to the drawing and reception of guests
and settlers which means the eventual aggrandizement and prosperity of
of our community.
We. therefore, earnestly urge this Honorable Body to Isee to
it that the person responsibl0 ror this utterly indifferent disregard
of all that is decent and proper: in a decent and civilized community,
be made to live up to such building regulations relative to construction
inside ~nd out of the buildings, sanitary recuirements and livable
conditions as to render them at lenst somewhat neer in conveniences end
appearance to buildin~s surrounding it.
and in view of this precedent we respectfully submit that it
is the future in which we are elso vastly conoerned. You Gentlemen have
noted that the type of construction of all kinds of buildin~s at the
Beach have greatly enhanced in recent years not only in construct1.on but
also in beauty, expensive outlay p.nd designs. This has been due exclusi-
vely to the individual owner whom in a spirit of cordial co-operation
and interested more in what he could do to add to the beauty 9nd attrao-
tiveness of this beauty spot rether than having in mind the most that
he could benefit by, have strived in erecting buildings always better and
more convenient than those existing regardless of cost. These are the
reel builders of any community.
Unfortunately not all men are animated by these worthy senti-
ments and this is the kind of people that shouln and must be made to
conform with what is decent and proper with such legislation, as we here-
by urge you to enact, the t may make it possible to, in the future permit
the erection of bmildings equal or superior to existing standard.

Dear Sir:
~ "
Confirming today's oonveDsation, Mr. Whillock and I will.
aooe~t $400.00 for the hangar' and lease fit the City airport.
Inasmuoh as the 'hangar cost nearer $500.00 to put up
than $400.00, and would oost a great deal more to duplioate tOday,
and in view of the fact that we had only about 90 days use of it, I
think we should not be asked to make any greater sacrifice, as you
agre e.
We wo~ld like at this time to put in our names for a han-
gar site at one of the new locations, if and when the field i. a-
gain opened to general oivilian flying.

Honorable City Commissioner
City of CTearwater
Cle�rwn�er, Flarida
Honorable Sirs:
[h`e, the undersigned property owners of Clearwater �each, res-
pectfully beg to bring to your attention the fact that only recently
some �:gl;y, old and delapidated shacks were pernitted to and have actu-
ally been set u� on a lot in that subdivision known as '�Replat of
Clearwster Beach Park" amidst what are otherwise modest but neatly
anpearing, and even expensive homes and cottages.
This, at onc�e and of itself, hns created a condition �hich,
if allov�ed to continue, will be groducive of disa�trous iuture pros�eets
not alone detrimental to the interdst aP present property owners who
have invested in that subdivision any way from a modest amoun:t of money
to a small fos•tun�,: but also to the beauty and the Puture attractive-
ness of the Beach so much needed to the drawing and reception of guests
and settlers which means ths eventual aggrandi�emEnt and prosperiuy oP
�f our community.
We, tiherefore, earnestly urge this Honorable Body to see to
it that the person responsible for this utterly indifferent disregard
oY all that is decent and propey in. a decent and civilized community,
be made to live up to such building regulations relative to cc�.struction
inside �nd out oi' the buildings, sanitary re.ouirements And livable
conditzons as to render them at le�st somewla�.�t n�ar in conveniences end
appearance to buildin�s surrounding it.
=ind, in view of this p.receder_t we respectfully su'bmit that it
is the future in which we are a"lso vastly concerned. Xou Gentlemen have
noted that the type of construetion of all kinds oP buildizigs at the
Beach have greatly enhanced in recent years not only in construction but
also in beauty, expensive outlay and designs. This has been due exclusi-
vely t;o the individ�,iai ov�n�r whom in a spirit of cordial co-eperation
and interested more in what he could do to add to the beauty and a:ttrac-
tiveness of this beauty spot rather than:having in mind the most that
he ,could benefit by, �ave strived in erecting buildings �lways better and
more convenient than those existing regardless of cost. These are the
real builders of any community.
Unfortunately not all men are animated by tliese worthy senti-
ments and this is the kind of people that should and must be made to
c;onform wsth thhat is decent and proper with such legislation, as vJe here-
�y urge you to en act, t}�mt ma y make it possible to, in the future permit
the erection of b mildings equal or superior to existing standard.

Dear Sir•
Ccnfirming today+s conve�sation, Mr. WY�illock and T wi�.l
accept �400.00 for the ha:ngar and lease �t the Gity airport.
Inasmuch as the hangar cost nearer �600.00 to put up
than �4�0.00, and u;ould cost a great deal more to duplicate today,;
and in view of the fact that we hsd only about 90 days use of it, I
think we should not be asked to make any greater sacri�ice, as you
agree.
We would like at this time to put in our names for a han-
gar site at one oP the nevu locations, if and w hen the field is a-
gain opened to generel civilian ilying.
Yours very truly,
