Mayor-~ommissioner
Clearwater, Fla.
Dear Mayor Seavy:
As you know, the 0i ty Commission named me as one ot: the Comrqissioners 1'or the
Clearwater Beach Island Seawall District. It was with great reluctance that I accepted
the appointment, because I felt that my health would not permit me to give the pIDoper
attention to my duties. However, I wanted to do whatever I possibly oo~ld to help
obtain seawalls for the Island, and therefore I agreed to accept the appointmen~.
I now greatly regret to advise you that I find it impossible f~' me to continue
with th is work. I retired from active business when I came to Florida to live some years
ago, and did not again intend to engage in anything that would require my full time.
I find that the position of a Commissioner of the Seawall District requires so much time
and attention to det~il that my heelth will simply not permit me to render efficient
services in this capacity. So I think it is best far me to stip aside and let the Com-
mission app~int a man in my place who is in a posotion to devote the neoessary time and
energy to this important projcet. .
Will you theI'ef~re please consider this 6S my resignation as a member of the Oom-
mission of tp.e Cle8rw~ter Beecb Islemd Seawall District, effective immediately. ' And in
olosing I want to thank you end the other members of the City Commission for tendering
me this appointment, and for your splendid cooperation during the period in which I have
served.
Respectfully submitted,
William V. Pitts

The City in 1937 or 1938 had the nationally known ~ngineering Firm, Burns and
McConnell ~ngineering Company of Kansas Oity, Missouri, make a c~plete survey of the sit-
uation in 01earwater. ~he report of this survey was in the City Manager's files whem Mr.
Nichols left the City, but although I have made many inquiries concerning it in the City
Hall, I am advised that it c8nnot be found. ~s I recall it, this report cost the Oity
some $1,800.00, and I am sure a copy of it could be prooured from Burns and McDonnell. I
strongly urge that the City secure a copy of this report for consideration befQre bny actt;)n
is taken on the franchise, and al so that the information gi. ven in the report be given
adequate publicity so that the epople of Jleel'water may be advised of expert opinion in
the matter. I also urgently sQggest that the City obt~in from Burns and McDonnell their
let4st book, "Results of Municipal ~lectric ~ystems." I believe the latest issue covers
1944, end may be purohased for $10.00. I have the 1940-1941 issue, giving the record of
the 758 cities under municipbl ownership.
Publicity concerning the application has indicated th5t the rates are higher in
larger communities, but I find that the rates are as follo'Ws:

with plans and estimates of cost of remedial or protective works.
The total length of the beach to be investigated Is, oS readily to be seen, an i~
important factor in the total oost of an investigation. Other fa~tors, suoh as exposure '\ '

The foregoing figures show costs of abou2 ~800 to $1000 per mile or bea~h inves-
tigated. At Olearwater, the Beach lroslon Board probably would desire to inolude at least
the beach :betwaen points well to the north fjnd south of Big Pass end Little Pass. res-
pectively, a distance of probably 7 to 10 miles. UsIng an average cost of, say, $900 per
mile, the Clearwater investigation then should cost in the neighborh~od of about $7,500.

and"se'Wer~mains, as these items pertain to the health and c.:>mfort of the particular dis-
triots in which the oonstruction is contemplated.
Your attention is also called to the fact that if any or these projects are
undertaken, that supplemental appropriations will have to be mode Bnd money pr9vided
for their oonstruotion, as none of them have been included in out present ~udget.
If there are any further projects on which you desire estimates, I shall be
glad to prepare suoh estimates and smbmit them to you for further consideration.

inayor-G�mmissioner � -
Clearwster, Fla,
Dear Niay or Seavy:
xs you know, the �ity Commission n�ned me as one of the Comruissioners for the
Clearwster Beach Zsland Sea��all District. it was wi th great reluctance that I aecepted �
tb,e app�intment, because I felt that my health wo�itd not permit me to �;ive t he proper
attenti�n t� my duties. riowever, I wr�nted to do whatever I possibly could t� h�lp
obtain. sesw�lls �or the Island, and the re��re I agreed to aceept the appointment. •
` I no� greazly regret to adviae �ou that I i'ind it impossibla for m�e to continue
with th is worlc. I retired Yr�m active business when I came to Florida to live some years
ag�, and did not again intend to engage in anything that would require my f ull time.
I Yind that the Dositio n of_a Commissioner of the Seawall District requires so much time
and attenti�n to det�il�that my heslth will simply not per�it me to render efficient
services in tnis ca_pacity. So I think it is best far me to stip a�ide and let the Com-
missi�n app�int s man in my place whQ is in a posoti�n to devote th e necessary time and
ene.rgy to this imp�rtant projcet.
Will you therefore plzase consid er this ss my resignation as a member of the Com-
missi�n oi the Clearr�ater Beach Island Seawall District, efi'ective immedietely. l�nd in
closing I want ta thank you and the other members of the City Commission �eor tendering
me thi s appointment, and Por 90UI' 8p�.@T1CIl$ cooperati�n durin� the period. in which I have
served.
Respectfully submitted,

Now that the Clearvlater refunding has been completed, it is my wish to pay a
lon� deserved c�mpliment to your 8ommission, the City kttorney, the City ltianager, and
r,he City Clerk. We wark with city officials all over the c�untry. It hr�s been �nly
rarely that we have Pau nd the alertness to the public interest, charscterising ��ur
�ommission and the Citg Department hesds.
Y�u have saved the City of Clearwater a grest deel �i' m�ney, both in the aggre-
gate and annually. But, you hsve dane more; you hava establish ed your cred:t on a better
plane than it has ever bef�re oecur�ied. `i'hat never stops paying dividends. tFTe have had
numerous 1 etters and teleph�ne calls f rom invest�rs indicsting thei r satlsfa�ti�n at the
pr��ress being made bv the City.
From our observation, your records ere excellent; your technicsl departments
funetion smoothly and weli; y�ur City smployees are c�urteous, competent; your gr�wth
factor is good as to quality snd quantity. Znere is, therefore, only �e conclusi�n th�t
Clearwater faces a c�mforteUly long and sstisfsctory growth in th e future.
In behal� of S�ields end Company, as wsll ss the sVriter, permit us ta exgress
our pleasure in having th� refunding business with y ou.

I attach hereto s lettier dated Ju].y 23, 2hich I wrote under the imprsssi�u that
a vommissinn meeting was to be held on that da�e.
�ince that titne I have noted that ths City of �'ampa hss v�ted t� purchase the
plsnt avd distribution sy�tem of the 7.'ampa �lectri:c Company. The arrengement as rep�rted
in the paper was that ne�:,tiations were t� r�e handled by t�a� r�nd campenies undar an arrange-
ment whereby .if the ne�ote�ions were unsuc�essful that the cos� to the City would be �nly
a n�minal amount. Ther�� is n� d�ubt whataver �ut that some arrangement could be made for
Clearwater, snd I certainly urge your serious considerati�n of s Lch a move.

Gentlemen:
l am sorry that I had n� farekn�*r�ledge of the appearance of the �lorida Power
Company representative bef�re your H�norable b�dy, as I w�uld have liked vary much to be
thare.
lh� �ity in 193'] or 1938 had the nationally known �:ngineering Firm, Burns and
�:eConnell ingineering �ompany oi Kansas City, P1lissouri, make a c amplete survey �f the sit-
uati�n in �learwster. 1'he rep�x�t �f this survey �as in the City Nansger's files wham Mr'.
iJichols leit the City, but although I have mr�de many inquiries concerning it in tne �ity
Hal1, I am edvised �hst it c�nn�t be found. ns I recrll it, this rep�rt c.�st the �ity
s�me �1,800.00, and I am sa�re a c�py af it could be procured from Burns and 11�cBonnell. I
strongly urge that the City secure a copy oi t his report for c�nsiderati�n before any acti�n
is tskes on the franchise, snd also thet the inP�rm�ti�n given in the report be given
adequate publieity so that tY�e eoople oi t%learwater may b e advised of expert �pini�n in
the matter. I also urgently suggest that the �ity �btsin from Burns end McDonnell their
lat�st b��k, "Results of 2�Tunicipsl �lectrie �ystem`s." I b elieve the l�test issue covers
19t�4-, end may b e purchased ior �10.00. I hsve the 1940-191�1 issua, giving the rec�rd �f

Replying to your lettar of 23 July 1945, it is a little difficult to quote even
ari approxim�te estimat� �f the c�st of a beach erosion investigati�n of C1learwater B�sch
�ithout first having inispected th e site and discussed the problem with y�u� Even then, an
accur�te estimete cauld not be made until a camplete outline of the worK necessary to
secure the inf ormati�n needed in •the ittvestigation h�d b een made by the Beach Erosi�n
Board in Washington.
The purpose of an investigati�n of Clearwatar Beach presumably would be to deter-•
mins tl?e bost method o i preveating further erosion of the beach. Normally, investiga�ians
�r�`. this nature include ��p�grapr,ics end hydrographic surveys aloug the beach; compilation

storms; a descriptian and stetement of effect on the �hore �ine of exist;ing beach protec-
ti:va structur�s; aeria�. ph�togrephs �i the beach; a study of shore line end offshore depth
cl�anges; and, finally, a report by the Beach �rosion Board ambodying the findings, to�ether
with plans and estimates oi c�st �f remedial or pr�tective w�rks.
The total length �f the beach to be investigated is, as readily to be seen, an i
imgoz�tant fsctar in the total c�st af an investi�ation. �ther fac�ors, suoh as sxposure
availability or n�n- availability of records; peculiar geologic or hydr�la�ic condi.ti�ns
etc., elso affec� c�sts es betwzen different localities. To illusteate c�sts under vory-

1`s yau probably realize from the abovs projects, theg are all considered very
essential in the f uture growth oi the �ity. Tap priority sh�uld be given, however, I
believe, to the i:zstallati�n of the new wells, end to the extensi�n of our weter m�ins, gas
and �ewer'msins, as these items pertain to the health �nd c�mfort of the psrticLlar dis-
tricts in w hicn t�e construction is contemplated.
Your attenti�n is also called to the fact that if sny �i thess prajeets are
undarteken, that supplemental appropriations will have to be msde and money provided
for their construction, as n�ne of them hava been included in �ut present �udget,
If there are a ny further projects on vahich y�u desire estimates, I shall be
glad to prepare "such es:timates and sn�bmit them to you f�r further c�nsiderati�n.
