At a special meeting held May 26, 1952, the City Engineer was directed by
the City Commission to investigate the condition of the 48 inch storm sewer
which is presently across the property of the Greenwood Housing Project. The
sewer is under several of the buildings in the project.
Your attention is invited to excerpts of the minutes of the Commission
Meeting of December 13, 1948.

"The City Manager made a report on the Emerson Building Project, and recom-
mended that the city buy sufficient 48 inch tile for closing the open
drainage ditch at a cost of approximately $6500.00, to be paid from the Gas
and Water Funds, since this ditch is used by the Gas Plant in disposing of
its waste materials. The installation of the pipe to be handled by the
developer. The City Manager also recommended that the city surface a twenty
foot wide strip of Palm Bluff Street as requested by Mr. Emerson. It was
moved by Commissioner Sargeant, seconded by Commissioner Kennedy and
unanimously carried that the recommendations of the City Manager be approved."
The 48 inch pipe was laid by the developer at the location as shown.
Considerable settlement of one of the buildings has occured over this ~g
inch sewer, caUSing damage to said building. (See report of Ralph King,
Registered Engineer, attached hereto.)
The inspection of the sewer was made on June 26, 1952.

FINDINGS
.1
"
The sewer was entered at the manhole as indicated, and measurements were
taken to ascertain the point over which the building foundation was located.
The distance from the manhole to the foundation measured on the ground, was 31
feet. At a measurement taken in the sewer and at a point 32 feet from the manhole,
it was observed that the pipe was out of round about 1 inch.
The horizontal axis measurement was 49 inches and the vertical axis measure-
ment was ~7 inches.
It was difficult to ascertain whether there were any cracks in the pipe,
inasmuch as the entire inside of the pipe is covered with gas tar.
It was observed that practically all of the joints of the pipe are in very
poor condition. It is evident that during construction, proper jointing of the
pipe was not accomplished. Some of these joints are opened as much as .2 of a
foot. (See Exhibit No.1). Many of the joints have no grout in them and it is
possible to reach through some of the joints to the outer shell of the pipe.
These open joints allow infiltration of both water and sand into the pipe.
This infiltration of sand is probably contributing to the settlement of the
building over the sewer.

;~
RECOMMENDATION
It is possible to repair the existing sewer in this area, but it would be a
very difficult job. It would be necessary to thoroughly clean the sewer and
re-caulk all of the joints. After cleaning, the sewer should be examined for
cracks. At any cracked section, and in the section which is out of round,
and under the super-imposed load of the building foundation, the sewer could be
repaired by guniting or by the Centriline Process. This is not recommended,
inasmuch as the sewer would still be in a location where proper servicing could
not be accomplished and the sewer is under a continuous concentrated load.
It is recommended that the present sewer be abandoned, bulkheaded and entirely
filled and a new ~g inch sewer be constructed in the street around the housing
project.

The Honorable City Council of City of Clearwater
Gentlemen:
Clearwater, F.Ia.

",'
I want to make a suggestion that I feel would be a benefit to all in
Clearwater. Namely that when bids are called for on all public building, road,
bridges and other work of like nature, where labor is employed that "the prevail-
ing wage scale must be paid as established for this area."
This is not an organized labor request, because anyone union or otherwise
must be paid the established wage.
, This would level the wage differentials as they occur in this area which is
something our government i5 trying to do with price control on wages.
It would induce competitive bidding which we do not have much of now.
Respectfully yours,

Hon. Mayor Herbere M. Brown and City Com~issioners
City Hall, Clearwater, Fla.
Dear Sirs:
, {~
We should like to submit, for your consideration and approval, our plan to
publicize Clearwater and Clearwater Beach by means or "Visual Publicity"_
That is the making of a 16 mm film in color to be distributed to civic and
social groups in other states. The motion picture would include tourist attrac-
tions, both summer and winter and could also show some of the light industries
which are located here as a means of inducing ochers to come to this area.
We are prepared and equipped to begin work on this film which would have a
background of music as well as narration to accompany it.
We pelieve we have proven by our past work that our publicity ideas have
brough~learwater to the attention of prospective visitors here from allover
the nation and we would appreciate this opportunity to continue with this more
up-to-date method of promotion or our city. .
If the proposal is sufficiently acceptable to interest you we will be
delighted to go into the working details more fully and can meet with you at
your convenience.

Yours truly,

Trustees of Employees Pension Fund
Clearwater, Florida
Gentlemen:
Re: Carley C. Yates
Application for Retirement
Attached hereto is a letter ~rom Mr. Carley C. Yates, caretaker for
Clearwater Cemetery, requesting that he be retired under the Employees' Pension
Fund Plan effective July 1st, 1952.
Mr. Yates began his employment with the City Sept. 1, 1925. He is 62 years
of age and not in the best of health. This retirement would be according to
Section 5 o~ the Pension Fund Act which says in part: "Employees who have been
in the continuous service o~ the City for a period of twenty (20) years or more
shall at their request be retired on an annual pension which shall be two per cent
(2%) of the average salary received by said employee ~or the last three years of
his or her service multiplied by the number of years of service," and based on
the following calculations:
9/1/25 to 7/1/52 = 26 10/12 years
$6,231.24 received last three years
$6,231.24 ~ 3 = $2,077.08 average 1 year
2% of $2,077.08 = $41.54
$41.54 x 26 10/12 ~ears = $1,114.65 per year
$1,114.65 ~ 12. '92.88 per month

The Honorable City Commission
City of Clearwater, Flor+ida
Gentlemen:
July 1, 1952
At a special meeting held May 26, 1952, the City Engineer was directed by
the City Commis�ion to investigate �he condition of �the y.$ inch storm serrer
which is presentl;; across the praperty of the Greeriwood Housir�g Project. The
sewer is under se•veral of the buildings in the projec�.
Your attention is invited to excerpts of the minutes of the Commiss�on
Mesting of December 13, 194�.
"The Ci�cy Manager made a report on the Emerson Building Project, and recom-
mended that the city buy sufficient 4$ inch tile for closing the open
drainage ditch at a cost of approximately �6500.00, to be paid from the Gas
and Water F'uttds, since this ditch is usad by the Gas Plant in disposing of
its waste materials. The installat�on of the pipe to be handled by the
developer. The City Manager also recommended that the city surface a twentq
foot wide strip of Palm }31uff Street �s requested by Mr. Emerson. It was
moved by Commissioner Sargeant, seconded by Gommissioner Kennedy and
unanimously carried that the recommendations of the City Manager be approved.tt
The y.$ inch pipe vras laid by the developer at the locati�n as shown.
Considerable settlement of one of the buildings has occured over this J�$
inch sewer, causing damage to said building. (See r�port of Ralph King,
Registered Engineer, attached he�eto.)
The inspection oi the sewer was made on June 26, 1952.
FINDINGS
The sewer was entered at the manhole 2s indicated, and raeasurements were
taken to ascertain the point over �rYiich the building ioundation was located.
The distance from the manhole to the foundation measured on the ground, v,*as 3].
feet. At a measurement taken in the sewer and at a point 32 feet from the manhole,
it was abserved that the pipe vras out of round about 1 inch.
The horzzontal axis measurement was 49 inches and the uertical axis measure�
mQnt taas �7 inches.
It was difiicult to ascertain whether there were any cracks in the pipe,
inasmuch as the entire inside of the pipe is covered with gas tar�
It was observed that practically all. of the joints of the pipe are in very
poor condition. It is evident that during coastruction, proper jointing of the
pipe was naL accomplished. Some of these joints are opened as much as .2 of a
foot. (See Exhibit No. 1). Many of the joints have no grout in them and it is
possible to reach through some of the joints to the ou�sr shell of the pipe.
These open joints allow inf'iltration of both water and sand iuto the pipe.
This infiltratiAn of sand is prohably contribu�in� to the settlement of the
building over the sewer.
RECOM'�Ii ENDATION
It is possible ta repair the existing sewer in this area, but it would b� a
very difficult �ob. It vrould be necessary to thoroughly clean the sewer and
re-caulk all of the joints. After cleaning, the sewar should be er_ami.;�ed for
cracks. At any cracked section, and in the s ection which is out of round,
and under the super-imposed load of the building foundation, the sevrer could be
repaired by guniting or by the Centriline Process, This is not recommended,
inasmuch as the sewer c�ould still be in a location where praper ssrviain� could
not be accomplished and the sewer is under a continuous concentrated load.
Tt is recommended that the present sewer be abandoned, bulkheaded and entirely
filled and a new !�$ inch sewer be constructed in the street around the housing
project-.

The Honorable City Council of City of �learwater
Gentlemen:
I want to make a suggestion that I feel would be a benefit to a1l in
Clearwater. Namely that when bids are called for on all public building, road,
bridges and other work of like nature, where labor is employed that ���he prevail-
ing wage scale must be paid as established for this area.t�
This is not an organized labor request, because any one union or otherwise
must be paid the established wage,
This would level the wage differentials as they occur in this area whi�h is
something our government is trying to do with price control on wages.
It ivould induce campetitive bidding which we do not have much of now.
Respec�fully yours,
�s� Edward Elwood
