Dear Mr. Bennett:
Although we are 'the only business in Clearvlater chargirig the seme rates for
our goods or servioe as before the advent of inflution, we have long hesitated in
'revising our rares, hoping for cost decreases.
However, we have received parts cost increases as high as ~ifty percent in
addition to labor, fuel and bus cost increases. A ford transit bus has increased
..,in cost from $5500.00 to ~~7600.00. Vie find that without a fare increase we will
";~e~a~;:n t~ t o~~t~~~~ ~~t~USiness as we will not be a ble to repla ce the p'resent ,:.j~~~~i
Mr. Boyd A. Bennett
Oi ty Manager
Clearv1Uter, F~orida
Comparison or Clearwater fares to those 01' Tmnpa and St. Petersburg, is not
logioal due to the vastly larger population or t~ose cities a~d due to the fact
that they have a great deal of short haul on and off traffic that we do not have
here. Further, S~. Petersburg does not pay any income, franchise, or fuel taxes
be~ng municipally o~ned. Seventy-eight major cities have had trausit fare inorease
iri,thepast year and Miami, even with its large population, reoently went to a $.15

Dear Sir:
I would like to l'equest a permit issued to Miss Marianne Vognar,
who is my secretary, authorizing her to move a SIDElll cabana from Clearwater'
Beuch ucross the causeway. I understand th€.t mOving of this kind must be
done by truck and at night, and tilese requirements will of course be followed.
I will very much 8ppreci~te it if the City Commission will see fit to
grbnt this permit at its meeting tonight. I realize that the application should,
have been filed sooner in order to be placed on the agenda. However, my
secretary unexpeotedly had ~ oh~nce to acquire this oabena, and she is required to
Dlove it. from i~s present location at once. Therefore it is essential that permit
be granted l)rOrnptly, and I ,"vill greatly appreeiilte it if the Commission will give
its approvl:.ll at tonight's meeting.
Very truly yours,

Gentlemen:
For the past thirteen years I huve owned and lived on Lot s 1,2,3,4,5

g~rage has been used as headquarters ror an electtioal appliance service which I
have operated in EI nd ora una Clef.lrwt:lt.er.
J~bout 13 year ago my business had increased to such on extent that it
was obvious r should expbnd, end at that time I had plans drawn f~r the erection
of a garage apartment bbove, with adequate floor spece below to serve as a shop
for my business.
Today I flpt,Jlied for a building permit i'or the erection of this building
and it was then I learned that this unrestricted Subdivision, as I knew it, had been
rezoned, thus preventing the :eeection of my building.
Meanwllile I have gone to tlle expense to have plans drawn, entered into a
contract with the builder to erect my building, and he has purchased the needed.
materials to begin construction.
The nature or my business is not such thut any untoward noises are made,
nor will the operation of it const.itute a nuisance to the ubutting property owners,
and I respectrully request that an exception be made in this case and penuit me to
erect my building us per my plans.

bltnough we are the only business in Clearwster char�ing the same ratos for
our go�ds or service as before the advent of inflation, we hvve long hesitated in
revising our f ares, hoDing for cost decresess.
However, we have received parts �ost increases as high as �'ifty pexcent in
addition to labar, fuel and bus cost incresses, h ford transit bus has increased
in eo9t fxam �550�,00 to SP7600.00. �,Je fincl th�at without a i'are incre�se we will
be un�ble to oontinue in business as we will not be �;"ble to replaae the present
fleet �hen ii is �vorn out.
Comparison of C'le&rv�ater fares to tkiose of Tampa and St, PetExsbur�, is not
zo�i�di aue to the vUstly larger aopu�ation of those cities �nd ciue to i;he fact
thai; they have a great deal of short haul on anc[ o�i tr�affic 1;hat we do not h�ve
here. Further, St. I'eter�burg does no� pay nny income, frenchise, or i'uel taxea
being municipally owned. Se�venty-ei�ht majar cities have had traiisit i'ar� inerease
in the past year and hZiami, even with its l�x�e population, recently wettt to a.`�.15

�tveruged only �209.53 per month, There have bean no dividends. nll income has
been put back into the business; Clearwater was the first town in the st�te to
have all ne�v aguipment after the vaar.
Our �ranchlse states that Transit sha7.1 be sllov�ed a reasonable return on
its inveatm.ent. To date, no such return as indicatiea by the franchise has been
re�alized. �.f1'ective h.pril 15, we are forced to increase �ur Dunzdin and Zergo

4"Te plecige immediate reduction of fares to their former level as soan as
we are anle to do so. Our t�wn to Beach runs have no on �nd off traffic once

g�irage has been nsed as headquarters ior an electrical appliance service which I
have operated in and aroun�t Clear�va�er.
hb�uL a year ago my business had increased to such an extent that it
was obvi�us I should zxp�nd, and at that time I had plans drawn fmr the erection
oS a garage a�artment ab�ve, wi�;h adequate floor space below to serve as a shop
ior mp business,
Toda3r I ap�].ied �or a building permit for the erection of this building
and it was then I learned tihat thi:s unrestric'ted Subdivisi�n, as I Ynew it, had been
rezoned, thus preventing �tlle ��ection of my building.
��eanv�hile I have gone tio the expense to have plens clrawn, enterecl into a
contract �vith the builder to erect my b uilding, and he has purchased the needed,
mater�,als to b�gin construction.
The nature of' my business is not s uch that any untoward noises are made,
nor vaill the ��eration oi i`t constitute a nuisance to the �zbutting property o�vners,
and i respect�ully request that an exception be made in this case and permit me to
