Gentlemen:
.,
There have been several meetings with your oonnnission, your conuni ttee and the oity
attorney ooncerning the proposed extenaion of Pierce Street across Blocks itA It and
"Bit of' Coachman Hei/lPlta. I continuo to have off'ors to purchase some of this pro..
perty and, last week, I had to refuse to give a real estate dealer a price on aome
of the lots which will be necessary for Pierce Street if' it is to be extended.
Frankly, I had to tell the real estate dealer that I didn't know what my exact oom-
mitment to the cit~ was. With a vio'V/ toward eettlng this matter in ll10re tangible
for.m, it has been su~gested that I make a proposal in writing to the oity. The
proposal is as follows:
H. Lane Coaohman. as Executor of the Estate of Mae S. Coachman, deceased, and on
behalf' of' The Pine1le.s TracUnc Corporation, proposes to the City 01' Clearwatexa that:
1. The City enter into an agreement with him as E:lcecutor and with the corpomtion,
whereby the Executor or Trustee of the above Estate and the corporation will convey
i~t;h:n~i ~~r~i~~~h~fo;i~~r (~)t~dd~~io~:~t 1~~S )i~~~o~~o~~~~~;n~A ~!f a~~U~B'~ 4 ~f ~~;Oh-

ment to be of' the same quality as Prospect Avenue would be paved f'rom Park to Court

the grantors or their property in Blocks itA" and Itfil....re to be assossed with any of
the coats of such paving and street inlprOV61l1ents, inoluding aldewa lks a.nd neces sa.ry
curbing and gutterins, but not inoluding storm sewers)
4. The City will, within 30 days from this date, at its own expenso, survey
and locate and stake the right-of-way for the proposed Pierce Street extension, so
that the above grantors may not be any longer restrained fromd1aposition of such
property ir they have offers to sell; and
5. The City agrees that, within two (2) Y'ears frorn date, it willll1ake a diligent
and sinoere ertort to open Pierce street across the r1ghts-of-~y of the Seaboard

street as it now exlsts west of the Atlantic Coast Line Railway_
