In Re: Park Inn lease
Gentlemen:
In be~alf of Mr. B. J. Nuce, owner and operator of Park-
Inn, Clearwater Beach, we respectfully submit for your
oonsideration Mr. NuceIs application for a renewal of
his present lease on the property on which the Park*lnn
is now o).)erated. 'rhe present lease exp'res July 1951,
and Mr. Nuce requests that a new lease be granted at this
time for a period of ten years at a monthly rental of
One Hundred Seventy-Five Dollers.
The above request is made due to the fact that Mr. Nuce
desires to remodel the inside and outside of the build-
ing now l&oated on the Oity property, and he also wishes
to add a room approximate~y l2xl8 to the kitchen so as to
have gra&ter working space. It is estimated that the
cost of the remodeling ana ~rovements wil~ entail an
outlay ot approximately $4700 and to justify such an expense
at this time, Mr. Nuoe feels that it is only reasonabel that
he ask for an extension of the present lease so as to allow
a reasonabbe t~e to amortize this capital e~penditure.

TO THE CITY COMMISSIONERS OF THE CITY OF CLEARWATER, FLORIDA,
HEARING THE MATTER OF THE APPLICATION FOR ~ TAXI LICENSE
BY HENRY KELLY, OCTOBER 3, 1949
PETITION
Come now;your petitioners, CLEARWATER TRANSIT CO. ,
INO., by Ce R. Wiokman, its president and o~~e~ WARE'S TAXI
SERVICE, by George Ware, Its owner, and CITY TAXI COHP.ANY,
NOT INC., by J. Blaokburn and Goethe 08Neel, its owners, by
their undersignes attorney, Charles lI. l'hillips ,Jr., and
peti tion t~',is Honorable Connnission to deny the appli cs tion of
Henry Kelly for a taxi lioense, said application having been
fi~ed with the City of Clearwater on September ?, 1949. And
~or reasons in support of this petition, your petitio~ers
oite the following:
1. .'1he applioant has fai~ed to comply with Section 1,
Ar~iole 3 of Vity Ordinance n. 500, in that said applioation
. falls to set forth th~ p:roposed plaoe of business the make and
ot'vehiole to be, used. in the business, and the

trade mame, if any, IInder whioh the ap~'licant does or proposes
to do business.
2. The applioant has failed to show compliance with
Seotion 2 of Articles 5 of City Ordinance No. 500, which re-
quires, amone other things, that an investigation be conducted
as to the fitness of the equipment to be used, and the demands
of pUblio oonvenlenoe, necessity and sefety.
3. The applicant has fai~ed to show compliance with
Section 1 of i~rticle 4 of City Ordinance No. 500, which re-
quires that a liability insurance policy or a surety bond be
posted with the city before the applicant is allowed to operate
a taxi-oab on the streets of the Oi ty of Clearwater, '"t1d that
auid insurance or bond be approved by the 0ity Oommission.
4. ~he applicant has failed to show compliance with
Seotion ? of ~rticle 5 of City Ordinance No. 500, which re-
quires that the holder or a chauffeKr's license file with the
Ohief of Police a physician's report of physical examination
at least once a year.
5. ~he applicant has fai~ed to show compliance with
Seotion 1 of Article 8 of Gity Ordinance No. 500, which re-
quires thnt every person operation or controlling a taxi-cab
within the limits of Oleanvater shall file with the City
Manager a schedule of the rates or fares charges for trans-
portation of passengers in such cab.
6. This is the third time within one calandar year
last passed that the applicant has applied to the Vity Commission
for a taxi-cab license. ~he app~icant first applied on
September 14, 1948, and that application was deferred at tho
meeting of the City Commission held on tieptember 20, 194A,
and was later denied by the Vity Oommission at its meeting on
October 4, 1948. The applicant'.again applied on January 17, 1949
and the City Uommission at its meeting of January I?, 1949, denied
the said application for the reason that the applicant
failed to show the pUblic necessity for the additional service.
7. Section 3 of ~rticle 3 of Vity Ordinance No. 500
requires, as a necessary pre-requisite to the issuance of a
taxi-cab license, that the liommission find and the applicant
show that the pUblic convenience, necessity, and safety
justifies the issuance of such license. It was on the basis
that the public oonvenience, necessity, and safety did not
justify the issuing of an additional taxi-cab license that
the app1ioation of the present applicant was refused on
fanuary 17, 1949, and your petitioners respectfully show

unto the Commission that there is less justification now on
the b~sls of pUhlic convenience and necessity than there was
nt the time of the last refusal of the application of this
applicnnt, and in support of this contention, the petitioners
attaoh hereto and by reference make a part hereof the st~te-
ments of Harvey D. Ward, & J. DlacXburn of Vity Taxi CompRny,
the bookkeeper for Ware's Taxi Service, which statements show
thnt the receipts of ~jare's 'l'axi ;Jervice &. City Taxi Vompany
stendily declined for the past four years, and have mArke41y
declined since the, date that the last application of the
applioant was considered by the 0ity Co~nission. At present
there are seven lioensed taxi-cabs in the 0ity of Clearwater
that are idle because of ladk of sufficient business to WArrant
their use, and one taxi-cBb business has been forced to cease
',L'
operation within the las year due to lack of business. here
have been no complaints of poor or insufficient service ffi8do
either to the taxi companies operating in \J~ear"'lO.ter or to the
loonl bus company. Even during the neak of the last winter
senson, there was not sufficient business ~ keep all of the
presnetly licensed taxi-cabs in 0lea~vater occupied. One the
contrary, approxim~tely five of the presently licensed taxi-
cabs were constantly unable to find sufficient business to
keep 'them operation more than p8rt ime. ~he seven licensed
taxi-cabs that ore nmv idle are constantly kept in readiness
to answer calls end to serve the public wnenever there is a
need for such service. It is the belief of your petitioners
that if the pUblic nectssity required additional taxi-cnb
service, the public would request such service and the now
idle taxi-cabs would be busy.
8. ~he applicant is not a resident of the City of
Clearwater, and is, therefore, not in a position to ~wk the
City officials of the City of Cle-rwnter for concessions that
will allow him to compete with toxpnying citizens of
Clearwater.
9. The applicant attents, if licensed, to establich
his plaqe of business within 100 feet of two presently exist-
ing taxi-cab stands, which foct, when coupled with the
applicant's past conduct, leads your petitioners to believe
tha tit is the design of the applicant to el1[:age in ull.falr
praotices to induce business away from presently existing
taxi-ca bs.
'l'
10 10. he applicant will not be able to give satis-
factory service to the public for the reason that he intends
to eperate only one taxi-cab, and be the driver himself'. lIe,
able to properly serve transportation

In, addit~on, since his proposed taxi-cab is not equiped with

the fact that his limited facilities will necessarily render
him aomcwh~t innccessibl~ to the public by telephone, ~eads
your petitioners to believe thAt the applicant will continue
toentico passenr;ers away from the facili ties of the existing
furnishers of transportation.
'J.
12. he ppplicont has in the past made stRtements
in the presence of one of oyour petitioners that he did not
wish to buy the taxi-cah license of an existinp, taxi-cab
buainess, no mntter how reasonabel the price, for the re~son
that he could be put in business completely free of chnree
by the Vity ~ommission of ~learwater, ~he applicant further
indicn~en by his remarks that if he received a taxi-cab
It cense, he would have no compunction About selling said license
iC he Cound that it was to his advantage to relinquish s~id license.
13. It has been the known practice of the applicant
to ChArge fAres less than those prescribed ny the Bustomary
and ppproved rate sheets used by the other tax.-cabs operRt~D~.
One of your petitioners, a former employer of the applicant,
was forced to fire the applic'lnt from his employment for the
:reason that the appl'icaItlt continually charged fares below those
prescribed. On that occasion, the applicant stated to one
of your petitioners that he fully intended to continue to
chorge fares lower than those prescribed. ~or these reasons,
your petitioners believe that the applicant will enBoge in un-
fair competition and will be a detriment rather than as asset
to the transportation system of 0lea~vater.
l4. ~he operatmrs of the pUblic transportation
facilities, both taxi-cabs and bus, hAve a history of
OJ:
mutual cooperationa and unusual civic service. he local
bus company and the local taxi-cab operators cooperate each
~1~h the other in rendering good transportation to the peop1e

or Clearwater, 3ld have always engaged in fair competitive
practices with each other. ~he fact that the 100a1 bus
company joins the taxi-c~b operntors in this petition, is
to your petitioners's belief, indicative of the amicable re-
lationship thAt exists. It is the heartfelt belief of your
petitioners that the licensing of applicants such as the
present one will precipitqte a situntion wthat wi~l render
further cooperation difficult. for the r~son thnt it will nllow
a marginal taxi-cab operAtor to enter a field thAt is 8lready
crowded, and will, therefore, encourage such a mArginal
operator to engage in unfnir trade practices.
15. The pass8ge of City Ordinance No. 500, ehich
'v i
is the present vity of learwatcr tax -cab ordinance, was
occasioned largely by the insistence od the presant operators
of existing transportation facilities. ~his ordinsnce was
an emergency measure designated to stop a taxi war then in
progress, which taxi war was occasioned by the licensing of
such a number of taxi-cab operA tors, that the .Uloome of
each taxi-csb operp.tor was reduced to such an extent that
undesirable drivers had to be hired. It is the belief of
your petitioners that the licensie of additional taxi-cab
operators at this time will lower the income or other taxi
drivers, whi~h, will, in turn, make the taxi-cab operators
unable to ~ttract desirable personall to Cheir employment.
In that event, the situation corrected by Ordinance No. 500
willegein have been created by the body that enacted
Ordinance No. 500, the Vity ~ommission of the Vity ot
Cleatwa ter.

time of disaster, including hurricanes. It is in this same
spirit that your petitioners here appear before the Gommission.
your petitioners believe that the licensing of this applicant
will, in the future, cause public resentment toward the taxi-
cab operators or Clearwater as a whole, and wi~l, therefore,
be against the public interest, -nd will tend to mitigate
the well-earned reputation of the present operators. Your
petitioners believe that the resisting the app1ication they
are rendering a public servioe in attempting to police their
Own ranks.

City of Clearwater
Clearwater, Fla.
Gentlemen:
I represent IJr. Fred K. Biel, ~ho with his original
partner, Mr. Brady, entered into a lease with the City
on certain property located on Clearwater Beach. This
properts is known as Golf Inn. Mr. Bie1 has now sold
his interest in this business to Miss Fronoena Tyner.
The business ~il1 now operate by Miss Tyner and
Mrs. Botsford.
It is necessary and appropriate that the lease which
was originally in the name,pf Biel and Brady be transfered
to Mrs. Botsford and Miss lyner. A request was made a short
time ago for an endorsement to be made on the lease
showing Mrs. Botsford!s interest in this 1.ease. As of
this date, I have had no confirmation from the City or
Oity Manager that this endorsement has been made although
I understand that such is customary where there is not a
complete change in ownership. Mr Bie~ has been in this
business since the inception of same and has just no~
sold his interest to Miss Tyner.
In view of the foregoing facts, I would like to
fonmally request the transfer of the above mentioned lease
to Miss Francena Tyner and Ida M. ~otsford operating and
doing business as Golf Inn located at #50 Causeway Boulevard,
Clearwater Beach, Clearwater, Florida., I request this to
be put in the agenda of the earliest meeting possible, i~
that is necessary.
VerY' truly yours,

In Re; Park Inn lease
Gentlemen:
In be�jalf of Mr. B. J. Nuce, owner and operator of Park-
Inn, �l�arwater Beach, w�e respectfully suUmit ior your
consideration ?nr. Nu�eIs application for a xenewal of
his present lease Rn the property on which the Park�`Inn
is now operated. l�e present lease expmres Ju1y 1951,
andI;7r. Nuce requests that a new lease be granted at this
time for a period of ten years 2t a monthly rental of
One Flundred Seventy-FivP Dollars.
The a�ove request is made due to the fact that 1�2r. Nuce
desires t o remodel the inside and outside of the build-
ing now ld�cated on the Citg property, and he also vuishes
to add a room apprQximately 12x1.8 to the ki�cl�en so as to
have grefiter working space. It is estimated that the
cost of the remodeling and i�pravements will entail an
outlay of approximately �4700 and to justify such an expense
at this time, R:r. Nuce feels that it is only ressonabel that
he ask for sn ehtension of the present lease so as to allow
a reasonahle �ime to amortize this capital ea¢penditure.

TO TAE CITY GOP.RMISSIONERS OF THE CITY OF CLEARWATER, FLORIDII,
rT'�ARING TrII� I1�L4�PTER OF THE APPLICATION FOR $ TAXI I,ICENSE
Bv ��y KEI,LY, OCTOBr�ft 3, 1949
P�TITION
Come now;your petitioners, CI,EAR49?�I�ER TRr;NSIT CO;. ,
INC., bp �e R. Wickman, its nresident and o�p,nq�eh 1VARE'S TAXI
SERVICE, by George y��`are, Its ov�mer, and C2TY TAXI COA�.'ANY,
NOT INC., bq J. Blackburn and Goethe OSNeal, its owners, by
their undersi�ne� attorney, Charles 1-'I. Phillips,J'r., and
netition t?-is Honorab$e Coimnission to deny the application of
Henry Ke11y for a taxi license, said application havin� been
filed with the �ity o� �learwater on Septemt�er 7, 1949. And
for reasons in support of this petition, your petitioners
cite the i'ollowing:
1. �'he applicant has failed to comply with Sec�ion l,
Artie].e 3 of �ity Ordinance n. 500, in tYint said application
fails to set forth the proposed place of business the make and
_ model oP vehicle to be used in the business, and the
trade mame, iP any, under which the ap-�licant does or proposes
to do business.
2. The a�plicant has Pailed to show compliance with
SPction 2 of Articlea 3 of cit:v Ordinance No, 500, �vhich r.e-
quires, among othar thinga, that an investigation be conduc�ed
aa to ihe Pitness of the equipment to be u3ed, and the demands
of publia convenience, necessi�y and sefety.
3. The applicant has feiled to show compliance with
Sectzon 1 oP �rticle 4 of City Ordinance Pdo. 500, which re-
quires thnt a liability insurance policy or a surety bond be
posted with the city before the applicant is allowed to operate
a taxi-cab on the streets oP the �ity �f Clearwater,^nd tYiat
said insurance or bond be approved by the �ity Comm:ission..
4. �l�he applicant has failed to shoU� compliance with
Jection 7 of "rticle 5 0� �ity Ordinance No. 500, which r�-
quires that th2 holder of a chauffe�tr's lice_nse file w� th the
Chief of Police a physician's report �f physical esamination
at least once a year.
5. ���he applicant has Pailed to show compliance ��1ith
Section 1 of ��rticle 8 of �ity �rdinance No. 500, which re-
quires that every person operation or controlling a taYi-cab
within the limits of �learrvater shall iile with the �ity
P�Ianager a schedule of t�e rabes or fares ch�rges f or trans-
portation of passengers in such cab.
6. This is the third time tvith�n one calendar year
last passed that the applicant has applizd to the �it� �ommission
for a taxi -cab license. �'he applicant first apnlied on
september 14, 19a8, and that application v�as deferred at the
meeting of the City �or�mission held on �eptember 20, 1948,
and was later denied Uy the "ity �ommission at it:s meetin� on
�ctober 4, 1948. The applica�.t a�ain applied on Januar;* 17, 19a9
and the City �ommission at its meeting of January 1'l, 1949, denied
the said application zor the reason that the applicant
failed ta show the public necessity for the additional sergice.
�� Section 3 of nrticle 3 of uity �rdinance No. 500
requires, as a necess�try pre-requisite to the issuance of a
taxi-cab liaense, that the �o�nmission find and the applicant
shoxv that the public convenience, necessity, and safety
justifies the issuance of such license. It was on the basis
that '��e public convenience, necessity, and safety did not
justify the issuzng of an additional taxi-c�b l.icense that
the apglication of the present applicant was refused on
_ J'anu.ry l7, 1949, and 3*our petitioners resnectfully show
0
�
unto the �ommission that there is less justification notv on
the b�s�s of public c�nvenience and necessity �han thexe was
at the time of the last refusal of the epplication of this
applicant, and in supv�rt of tliis contention, the petitioners
attach hereto and by refexence make a part hereof the st��e-
ments of Harvey �, V�ard, & J. Blackburn of "ity Taai Company,
the Uookkeeper for Vrare's Taxi Service, which statements sho�v
that the receipts of Y�are's �l�a.�i .,3ervice & dity Taxi "or�pany
steadily declined for the past �our years, and have marlce�ly
declined since the d�te th�;t the last aronlication of tne
applicant vaas considered by the �ity Commzssion. Ht present'
there are seven licensed taxi-cats in the �'ity of �leurw�ter
that are idle because of ladk of sufficient business to tiv�rrant
their usa, and one taxi-cab bus?ness has been forced t o cease
operation wzthin the las year due to lack of business. 1here
have been no complaints of poor or insufficient service �nadQ
either to the taxi companies o�e,rating in �'.eartivater or to the
local bus combany. Even during tne �c �ak of the last v�;i� i;er
season, there wes not sufficient business to keep all of the
presnetly licensed taxi-cabs in �lear�vater occupied. O�e the
contrary, approxim^tely f�ve of the t�resentl� licensed taxi-
cabs were constantly unable to �'ind sufficient business to
keep them 9p'eration more than part ime. 1he sevsn licensed
tax3_-cabs that are nolv idle are consi;antly kept in readiness
�o answer ca11s and to serce the public wnenever there is a
need ior such ser�ice. It is the belie.i of your petitioners
that if the public nectssity req_uired additional taxi-cab
service, the public vrould reauest suc� serTrice and the now
idle taxi-cabs wnuld be busy.
8. lhe applicant is not a resident of the City of
�learwater, and i�, �here�ore, not in a position �o ,�wlc the
Cit;� ozi'ic�,als of the city of C1e�rwater for concessions that
will allow him to conpote with taA�aying citizEns o�'
�learwater�
9. lhe applicant attents, if licensed, to eatablich
his pl�tce �f business �v? �hin 1G0 fee� of tv��o presently e�ist-
in� tari--cab stands, wh.ich Pact, when coupled with the
appli�;ant's past conduct, leads your �etitioners to belieJe
that it is the d esign of the apPlicant to enuage in unPair
practices t� induce busin.ess away frora presently exi�ting
taxi-cabs.
10 10. ��he annlicant w�.11 not be able to �ive sat�s-
factory service to the public for the reason tk�at he intend�
to e�erate only one tax.i-cab, and ` e ;he driver himself, Eie �
theref'ore, v�ill not be able to nro�erly serve transnortation
r

,� � `a°.°'
�Germinals onermt?on undex a twenty-four hour � day schedule.
In, additqzon, sinoe hi� prnposod tax�-cab is not equiped tivith
r•adio eommunication equipmer_t, he will not be able to reciive
cmll.s enroute, which situat�,an will necessarily considerably
del�y his mnswering calls and servicin� incr�min� calls: therafore,
youx� petitionera believe that the applicant cannot, with a
lioense for only one tari-c�:b, suffieiently add to the public
service notiv Uein�; rendered by the existing traizsnortation
facilil;ies to warrant the issuin� of a taxi-cab license to him.
11. mhe ax�plicati�n formerly admitted befare Lhe
�ity �ommission tn�t Yle had picked up p�s�,engers from bus
stops v✓ithout solicitatian from them. mhis fast, couples vlzth
the fact that his limited facilities wi.l1 necessarily xender
him s�mewh�ai; inaccessibla to the puUlic by �elEphone, leads
your patitioners to believe that the anplicant will continue
toentice passen�ers atvay i'rom the facilitizs of the existin�
furnishers of transportation.
12. '�he gpplicant has in the past made sta.teruents
in the presence of one of oyour �etitioners that he a.ia not
wish to buy tha taxi-cab license of an existing taxi-cab
business, no matter how reasonabel the price, for the re�son
that he could b e put in business completely free of ch:�rge
by the "i�y �'ommission o�' "learwater, lhe applicant further
. inaica�ed bf his remarks that if i:e received a taxi-cab
l�.cense, he v�Quld have na compunetion about selling said license
if' he found that it was to his advantage to relinquish said license.
13. It has been the known practice of the anpl?cant
to charge fares less than those nrescribed hy the sustomary
and approved rate sheets used by 1;he other tasn-cabs operatQms.
�ne of your petitioners, a former employE�: of the appl�cant,
was forced to fire the appliC�+nt from his employrle�t for tlie
reason th�� the appl�ica�tt enntinually charged fares belo�v those
prescribed. �n th�t occasion, the applicant stated to one
oi your getitioners that he fully intend�d to continue to
char�e fares lower than th�se prescxibed. lar tl�ese reasons,
your netitioners believe �Ghat the applicant �vill engage in un�
fair competition an� ��+ill be a de��iment rether than as asset
to the transportation system oi' �lear�vater.
i4. `l'�;e operat�rs of the public transporta�i.on
facilities, both taxi-cabs ancl bus, have a historv of
mutu�il cooperationa an� unusual civic service. lhe l.ocal
bus pompany and the local taxi-r.,ab operators cooperate each
�roith the other in rendering good trans��ortation to the people
■
�
, __ _ �
of �learvaater, md have al�xays en���ed in �'air r,ompetitive
practices with each otlzer. �l�he faGt that the local bus
company joins the taxi-cab o�ermtors in ti�is netition, 3.s
�- �o your petitioners's belief, indicative of the amicabls re-
l�tionship that e�ists. It is the heartfelt belief of four
petitio�ers thet the licensing of a�plicants such as the
present one will brecipitate a situation wthat Will render
fur�her cooper�tion difficuiL �, �`or the reson tha t �,t �r�ill a1Zo�v
a marginal taxi-cab o�erAto;c� to enter a field t�at is already
crowded, and wiTl, th�refor�, ancourage such a mar�i:nal
operator to engage in unfair trade pra,etices.
15. The passage of City �rdinance No. 500, ehich
is the present `%ity of Llear�vater taxi-cab ordinance, tvas
occasioned largely by the insistence od the pres�nt operators
of existin� transportation facilities. ��his ordinance was
an emergency measure designated to stop a taxi war then in
progress, which taYi war v,�as oceasioned by the licensing of
such a number of taxi-cab operators, that the ihcome of
sach ta�;i-cab oper-tor was reduced to such an ex_tent that
undesirable drivers nad to be hired. It is the belief of
your petitioners that the licensig of additional taxi-cab
operators at this time will lov��er the income of other taxi
drivers, vahi�h, will, in turn, make the taxi-cab operators
unabTe to attract desirable personall to �heir employment.
In that event, the situation corrected by Ordinance No. 500
�r�illagain have been created by the body that enacted
' �rdina�ce No. 500, the "�t� �ommission oi' the Uity oP
Cleatwater."
16: �lhe present taxi-cab operators have a record
of acting in the public interest, inclucing their offering
their comPlete faciliti.es to the citizens of �learwater at
time of disaster, including hurricanes. It is in this sarne
spirit that your petitioners here appear before the �omm�ssion.
your netitioners believe that the licensing o� this applicant
will, in the future, cause public.resentment toward the taxi-
cab operators of Clearwater as a whole, and will, therefore,
be against the public interest, md will tend to mitigate
the well-earned reputatiun. of the present operators. Your
,_.
petitioners believe that the resisting the application they
are rendering a public service in attempting ta police their
�wn ranks.
V�TIi�RERORE, your petitionera pray that the application
of �enry �elly for a taxi-cab license to operate a taxi-cab
within the limi:ts of'Glearwater, Florida, be denied,

�entlemen:
I represent PiIr, Fred K. Biel, who with his original
partner, TSr. Brady, entered into a lsase with the Cit�
on cerr:,ain property located on Clearwater �each. lhis
properts is known as Golf Inn. Mr, Biel has now sold
his interest in this business to Miss Francena Tyner,
The business will now ope.rate by Niiss Tyner and
rQrs. Botsfordo
It is necessary and appropriate that the lease which
was originally in the namero� Biel and �rady be transfered
to PJlrs. Botsford and Miss lyner. A request wa.s made a short
time �go f or an endorsement to be made on the lease
showing h4rs. Botsford s interest in this lease. As of
this date, Z have had no confirmation from the �ity or
�ity Manager that this endorsement has been made although
I understand that such is customary where there is no� a
complete change in otvnership. P�Ir Biel has been zn this
business since the inception of same and ��s just now
sold his interest to P?iss Tyner.
In tTiew oP the �'oregoing facts, I would like to
�ormally request the transfer of the above mentioned lease
to T�Ziss Francena Ty�er and Ida I�2, �'otsfordy operating and
doing business as Golf Inn located at #50 Causeway Boulevard,
Clearwater Beach, �learwater, Florida. I requast this to
be put in the a�enda of the earliest mee�Ging gossible, if
tliat is necessary.
very truly you•rs,
