To The !.1ayor and City Commissioners
of Cle~rwater, Fla.
Gentlemen:
As a resident and property owner in the ~8vajo Park slilidivision of Clearwater,
I wish to go on record as being very much OFPOSED to the proposal to create a small
boat hasin and club house in the ~tevenson's Creek area.
I bought my home here in an R.I. neir;hborhood in good faith believing that I
would be protected from anythin~ undesireable. Should you allow this proposal to
go. through, I should have to throw my rroperty on the market for whatever it would
br1.ng and move, as I could not stand the noise of the !~otors.
Of the two evils, I should prefer the liiUd f18ts, bugs and ster.ch to the noise
of the motorboats.
Yours very truly,

CITY CO~TI~I3SION MEETING
October 6, 1952
The Honorable l~ayor and City Commissioners
City Hall
Clearwater, Florida
Clearwater, Florida
September 23, 1952
In Re:
Proposed Small Boat Building
Gentlemen:
This :is to inform you trnt I \-/Quld like to submit a prOI,Qsal for the lease
of that ureA that the City of Cle~rw~ter hIS re~erved Cor' a 8m3l1 boat building
and bait ~oncesHion.
I <1m in ~l 1 os:it:i on :It the rr '.:3ent ti me to bui lei ;:'I nd construct n bui ldi ng on
the ~foresnid loc~tion 150 ft. lon~ by H~~roxirnatoly 25 ft. in depth. Said build-
ir.g would also house space for the bllsiness, lJ.qit com::e:;slon, motor sales and
repairs, boat sales, boat salas office, toilet facilities, ice 8nd freezing plant
faci liti,,;s :Jnd three or four Jld:i tior.::l,J. shol:S, ~;ajcl :3hoy;s not to be in competition
with busir~c:i,'..i(::.:i loc;~lt~d i.n the ;': rina. I should like to 11:1V0 ei.ther 011 or a
pOI'tion of trje slir~' lor.::ted in 1",11-.; small boat hgsin;'}s :1 [l'}rt of the lease for a
term of 25 y\.'ars, .u:d at i..I n!!'t:1.l of $H~C'.OC fer :Jlonth. Jaid :)llildin~ to cost,
e'{clusive of C'lUip,l~nt, not le::;s than ~:20,OOO, and I f(Jol SU1~e that by the l:,ime
the Flans ;Jl'C le~, with th~ risinr:; cost of In,l.ildin~;, t:,lFlt thl'! buildin::; will
probably exceed ~:G5,OOO. Of course, to thi~3 Duilding, I }lan to install all
nece~s~ry equipment, to carryon the busin8ss as aforesaid, ~s soon as I can move in.
Also CIS :J pdrt of the rent 1 v.'ould :,SSU!;i'~ the obli ':ltj on of p"~yin0 the tAxes
on the leased promises. I also ~u~rantee to continuously maintain and operate
facilities for the sale of livo and frozen bait ~nd facilities for the retail and
whole.3ale selling of .fish. Also to include i-J fr':Gzin~ process in shippinR; of
game fish.
I believe the usual a~sj~nment rrocedure of the City of ~le~rwater for most
of their le1so5, is ~ormittin~ the Lessees only to ~ssign their leases with the
consent of the cOtrlJllission of the City of Cl':'dr',<J:lter. 'rhis procedure would be
entirely s~itisf:lctory, of course, I \'iould \'nnt the privilege to sublet bo,~,t slips
3nd store space in the buildin~. All builrlin~s, less e~uirment, would belong to
th e City of Cl'2'tri'.ater at the terrnin:lti on of the Lease.
Clear\^1I Cer has long been my }1o:;.e ar:d I feel tlwt \-Ii th the r;rO\'Jth that the
City and the w.ter front facilities h~ve undergo~e in the p~st yoar or so, I am
justified in rnakin[~ this offer to exrend the SUlIlS of r.lOney inuicated.
Enclosed you will find a te~tative floor plan and sketch of the buildin~ I
propose to erect, said sketches havin~ b~en designed by the city architect,
William H. r,l::1llorie, dnd f\ssociates. It is tflY intention to subllJit plans that will
conform vd.th the ge~er31 :u'chitectuY'al ,jc.sL~n i,mcl layout of th,,; j.:Arina area and
build ,l buildin,~ that Vlill be .q credit to the main entr,]nce of the DOACh.
Should the City of Clei:1r::<Jter desire an (.a.rnc~}t money deposit as evidence of
my good fa.' th in this proposal, I i'Jill pri:::sent it upon request.
TrustinE; this \vill be on your ar;end:l at your 118Xt regular :neeting, I remain
Sincerely yours,

Dear ;',18yor Brown:
Since traffic safety is one of the q;r3,vest problems no'..; confronting tovms and
cities, as \'iell ~s the state as a whole, I know you will be interested in anything
that is bein~ done to solve it.
\Ve of the Florida Ci t1 zens :3o.fety Council \.'Jill intensify r:mr efforts to find such
a solution, and put it into effect, duri~~ the Fourth Annual Governor's Highway
Safety Conference in Jaytona Beach on October 10-11.
You can be of roal help in this enrleRvor if vau will not only llen to attend the
Conference yourseli' but \Vill t. ,:tke the In;:;,tter" up with the ar-propriat;e ~overning
body -3.nd try to ,nake it possible f'or the municipal jude;e and the chief of poU,ce
in your community to attend also.
This year, we are especially anxious for 8S many ~ud~es ~s possible to attend the
Conference. As you know, there is no state organization of municipal judges and
they have no way to assemble, talk over mutual problems and try to raise the ~eneral
level of traffic justice in Florida. In this way, our trAffjc courts could b~ made
what they oUGht to b e--one of' the strongest links in the hi r:l1\'Jay safety chain.
