The city's portion of this 1s around $300. Since 1945 when I fIrst took tItle of this property the street between the Palm pavillion and my property was in a ve'1!Y bad sl't..ape where a car could not dr1ve on 1t without getting stuck. We made repeated requests to have something done so that we oould continue in the pursuit 01" our bUSiness, to mJ knowledge up to the present time, has there ever been aDT- thing done in the five years I have owned this property. In view 01" the above condition, I am a 11ttle oontused as to the future o~ my investment in' Clearwater Beaohg while I know that there has been a oommittee appointed to do something about protecting the beaoh property. nothing ooncrete has ever been done. One would at least expeot that the oity streets would be cleared of debris am some e~fort oould be made to help the property owners and in view of the taxes I am assessed against a period that I have owned this property, spells $.5,000. At the rate of eros10n aga1nst the rate of Taxes 1t doesn't spell good bus1ness. Just before this storm I offered this property tor sale for i35,000 and the best otter that I reoeived was $30.000 because ot tbe erosion and ot course right atter the storm the party lost all interest. Its not the purpose at this letter to orltioise or find fault with the oitY' or oounty government only the purpose 01" stating some faots as they are and to try to get some in~ormation as to the future plans 01" the city and county aa to what measures are oontemplated on, regarding the beaoh front property. MJ audited work sheet shows that in a period 01" ~iV6 years we have invested over $36,000 on this pieoe at land and beoause ot erosion the best otter betore the storm was $30,000 (and incidentally I believe we are assessed ~or around $4Q.ooO) alnd ot course this valuation will decrease as we lose land from the wind and high tides. I would appreoiate it very much it you will inform me as to what plans are in progress or are being made regarding the above. Thanking you in advance. I remaIn. Yours very trul,..

Gentlemen: Thara 3,s no doubt that you have received msny lett�ra of fihis kind since the I,sbor Day storm pertaining to the property along the beach in Clear�vater and. �, like all the rest am naturally worried of �uhat 1.s to become of my property along the (3ulf Pront. I own 1'76 feet north oi' the Palm Pavillion between l�valon dc Kendall Sts. I bought this propert� in 1945, tore down some ramshackled build- ings that were a fire hazard and rebuilt tv�o new buildings �t a cost of $�5,000. Since the purchasa oP this property �v� have made some 3.�provements besides these buildings. My taxes between the county and tha clty run close tn �I,000 a year. The city�s portion oP this is around $�300. Since �945 when I firs� �ook title of this property the street between the Falm pavillion and my property was in a very bad shape where a car could not drive on it without getting atucka We made repea�ed reqLests to have something done so that we could continue in the p�ursuit of our bus�neas, to my knowledge up to the present time, has there Ever tieen any- thing done in the five years I have owned thia property, In view oP the abo�re condition, I am a little conPused as to the future oF my investm�.zt in Cleasnvat�r Beach, while I know that there has been e committee appointred i:o do �omething about protecting the beach pra�erty, nothing concrats has ever been done. One would at least sxpect that the city streots would be cleared of debri� azxl some e�fort could be made to help the property owners and in view of the taxes I am assessed againat e period that I have o�vned this property, spells �5,000. At the rate of erosion against the rate of Taxes it dnesn't g ell good business. Juat before this ��orm I oi�ered this property for �a1.e for �35y000 and the best oP�er th�t I received scas �3��000 because of the eroaian snd oP course right after the storm the garty loat all interesto Its not the purpose of tiiis latter to ariticise or find fault with the city or county govern�ent only the purpose oP stating soma facts ss they ara a�nd to try to get some infor�wation as to the future plana oP the city and county as to what measures are contemplated on, regarding the beach front property. My eudited work sheat shows that in a period of five years are have invested over �38s000 on this piece of land and because of erosion the best offar befora the storm was $p308000 (and inci3entally I believe we are assessed for around �4O;,OflO) and of course this valuation will decrease as we lose land from the wind end high tides• I would appreciate it very much iP you evill inPorm me as to whet p�.�ns are in progreas or are being made regarcling the above.
