A Pu~lic riearing was announced by the Mayor on the request of Mr. Ralph
Richards for a fifteen foot setback from Rosemere Road for Lot 3, Glenwood
Subdivision. The City Attorney read the request from Mr. Richards on behalf of
Mr. George Adriance and the Zoning Board's recommendation which was that the
request be denied. Mr. Jack Eckhardt and Mr. Joe Beck, adjacent property owners,
objected to granting any change in the 25 foot setback. A letter of objection
was read from Mr. and Mrs. William Tench. Commissioner Bates moved that the
request be denied in accordance with the recommendation of the Zoning Board.
Motion was seconded by Commissioner Kennedy and carried unanimously.
The Mayor announced a Public Hearing on the request of Mr. Ben Krentzman
for the re-zoning from R-2 to Business o~ Lots 3 and 4, Block C, Carolina Terrace
Subdivision, to permit construction of a gasoline station. The City Attorney
read the request from Mr. Ben Krentzman on behal~ of Mr. Richard M. Collins and
also the Zoning Board's recommendation which was that the request be denied as
no hardship was shown and the area was predominately residential. Mr. R. J.
McDermott, attorney, addressed the Commission for Mr. R. M. Collins stating that
there was no business area at present to serve the people residing in Carolina
Terrace, Lakeview Heights and Duncan Subdivisions, and presented a petition
signed by seven property owners in Block C showing that they were in favor ot
the lots being used for a service station. Mr. Collins addressed the Commission
in support of his request. Commissioner Strang remarked that in all probability
the area east of Block C on Missouri Avenue may eventually come within the City
limits and since it is apparently developing now as residential property, the
present usage of that area should be taken into consideration in zoning this
property. Commissioner Strang moved that this Public Hearing be adjourned to
September 7, 1954, and that this request be returned to the Zoning Board with the
additional information of this petition tor their further consideration, it having
appeared that this petition was not presented at the time the matter was considered
by the Zoning Board. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Bates and carried
unanimously.
The Mayor called the meeting to order. Commissioner Strang moved that the
minutes of the regular meeting of August 2nd and the special meeting of August 9th
be approved in accordance with copies furnished each member in writing. Motion
was seconded by Commissioner Bates and carried unanimously.
The Mayor announced the consideration of bids for air conditioning the Sea-Orama
Room at the Clearwater Marina and the City Hall Auditorium and suggested that the
Commission also consider advertising for bids for air conditioning the second floor
assembly room at the Marina which is used by the Chamber of Commerce and other
groups. The City Manager reported that five Dids had been received but that two
of them were late and would have to be rejected. Therefore, he suggested that the
Commission reject all the bids and return them unopened; then the entire project
could be re-advertised and include the second floor room at the Marina at that
time. Commissioner Bates moved that all bids be rejected and returned unopened
and that the City wanager take bids on all three of the projects at one time.
Motion was seconded by Commissioner Russell and carried unanimously.
The City Manager recommended that the bid of $1,715.00 from W. H. Armston
Company, the low bidder, to resurface Pine Street and Turner Street from Hillcrest
to Evergreen Avenue be accepted. Commissioner Strang moved that the Manager's
recommendation and the Engineer's recommendation that W. H. Armston Company, Inc.,
be awarded the resurfacing of Pine and Turner Streets from Hillcrest to Evergreen
for a total price of $1,715.00 be accepted. Motion was seconded by Commissioner
Bat es and carr ied unanimously.
The Mayor announced the Public Hearing on the request of Mr. Ernest A.
McCall for a four foot setback line from the side lot line for Lots 43 and 44,
Block B, 2nd Addition to Belmont Subdivision, for an addition to an existing
structure. The City Attorney read the request ~rom Mr. McCall and the Zoning
Board's recommendation which was that the request be granted. The Mayor inquired
if there were any objections and there were none. Commissioner Kennedy moved
that the recommendation of the Zoning Board be approved and that a restricted
setback of four feet be granted. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Russell
and carried unanimously.

CITY COMMISSION MEETING
August 16, 1954
A Public Hearing was announced on the request of Mr. Keith Simons for a
twenty foot setback from Princess Street and a thirteen and one-half foot building
setback line from Sunset Drive for Lot 10, Block a, North Shore Park. The City
Attorney read the request of Mr. Simons and the recommendation of the Zoning Board
which was that the request be approved if the setbacks are not less than the esta-
blished setback of existing construction on adjoining property. Mr. Ambrose
Carlson, owner of Lot 11, Block 8, objected to the granting of the 20 foot setback
from Princess Street as it would interfere with his view. It was pointed out that
all of the existing houses on Princess Street inCluding Mr. Carlson's had setbacks
of twenty feet. Mr. Frank Carmack, owner of adjoining property to the north,
reported that he had no objection. Commissioner Bates moved that the request be
granted in conformity with our opinion and the recommendation of the Zoning Board.
Motion was seconded by Commissioner Kennedy and carried unanimously.
A Public Hearing was called on the proposed 30 foot paving, curb and drainage
of Union Street rrom Edgewater Drive to Broadway. The City A~anager from Dunedin,
Mr. aadley Shaw, was present and stated that the City of Dunedin had agreed to
pave one-half of Union Street, it being on the boundary line between Dunedin and
Clearwater. Mr. Middleton reported that the project for Clear~ater had been
estimated on the south half of Union Street, to be assessed according to footage.
The Engineer estimated the cost at ~4.g5 per front foot. The En~ineer reported
that a pr~liminary hearing had been held at which the r€action had been favorable.
The City Attorney reported the receipt of two letters from Mr. W. F. Graeske and
Mr. Louis H. Jerger, property owners, approving the project. Mr. W.C. Copeland
inquired if the old paving would be removed and was informed that it would be as
the street ~ou1d have to be graded. He expressed his approval of the project.
The City Attorney read a letter from Mr. W. E. Poole, owner of Lot 3, Rainbows End,
pointing out that 100 feet of his lot fronted on Edgewater Drive and it runs back
200 feet on Union Street. He stated that his lot would derive no benefit from
the paving o~ Union Street as there was already an adequate paving there. Mr.
John Rowe addressed the Corr~ission pointing out that the proposed assessment against
Mr. Poole would be approximately $1,000.00 which would be most unfair according
to benefits received. Corr~issioner Bates suggested that Mr. Poole's property be
assessed for drainage and curb but not for paving. Commissioner Bates moved that
the Commission approve this project and authorize the work to be done, the bids
to be taken andthewc>rk.-.to--be-d()-Ile-, and the properties to be assessed according
to the benefits received with the understanding that it be a 30 foot street on a
50M50 cost basis with Dunedin, and that we are also in agreement at this time
that the paving assessment would not involve this one piece of property. Motion
was seconded by Commissioner Kennedy and carried unanimously.
The City Attorney read a Resolution assessing against the benefited properties
the cost of a sewer line and lift station for an area bounded on the north by
Granada Street, on the south by Sedeeva Street, on the east by Wilson Boulevard
and on the ~est by Edgewater Drive. The Mayor inquired if there were any objections
and there were none. Commissioner Bates moved that the Resolution be passed and
adopted and that the proper officials be authorized to sign it. Motion was
seconded by Commissioner Strang and carried unanimously.
The Mayor reported that a representative from the St. Petersburg Independent
would like the City to take an advertisement in the special edition of the
Independent commemorating the opening of the "Sunshine Sky'Way". The Mayor suggested
that the matter be referred to the City Manager for decision and the Commission
concurred in this suggestion.
A Resolution was read assessing the cost of the paving and curb in Pierce
Street from Myrtle Avenue to Prospect Avenue against the benefited property owners.
The Mayor asked if there were any objections and there were none. Commissioner
Strang moved the Resolution be passed and adopted and the proper officials be
authorized to sign it. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Russell and carried
unanimously.
The City Attorney read a Resolution assessing the cost of the sanitary sewer
in Franklin and Pierce Streets from Myrtle to Prospect Avenues and curbing on
Franklin Street from Myrtle to Prospect, against the benefited properties. The
Mayor inquired if there were any objections from anyone in the audience and there
were none. Commissioner Strang moved that the Resolution be passed and adopted
and the proper officials be authorized to sign it. Motion was seconded by
Commissioner Russell and carried unanimously.
The City Attorney submitted a Resolution which would change the name of Grand
Avenue to Kercules Av~nue to eliminate the confusion of haVing the same avenue
called by two names. The Mayor su~gested that a certified copy of the Resolution
be sent to the County Commission for their consideration regarding changing the
name of the part of the road which is in the County. Commissioner Kennedy moved
the adoption of the Resolution and recommended that a copy of the Resolution be
referred to the County Commission for their consideration and request that they
take similar action on that part of Hercules Avenue extending from the City limits.
Mo~~on was seconded by Commissioner Strang and carried unanimously.
The City Attorney reported that the Resolution correcting the property
description in the Resolution of July 6, 1954, which vacated the west 10 feet of
Lincoln Avenue, had actually been passed at the meeting of August 2nd but it did
not fully appear in the minutes so it was necessary to pass it as of that date.
Commissioner Bates moved that the Resolution be passed and adopted as of August 2,
1954. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Strang and carried unanimously.

CITY COMMISSION MEETING
August 16, 1954
The City Engineer presented a written request from Mr. H. H. Baskin on
behalf of Mr. Donald Alvord that the City vacate the utility easement running
along the west border of Lot 5, Block A, Skycrest Unit D, and accept in lieu of
the vacated easement a six foot easement running parallel to the eastern border
of said Lot 5 as indicated on the sketch accompanying the request. An executed
copy of the proposed easement was attached to the letter. After some discussion,
the Mayor suggested that the matter be referred to the City Attorney to bring
back a complete report on this from the standpoint of all the lots affected.
The City Engineer reported that the Negro Swimming Pool was completed and
ready for final insl'ecti. on by the Qommis sioners. By consent, Saturday,
AU8ust 28th, was set up as a tentative date for formal openin~ of the pool.
The City Attorney read a letter from Mr. John Weis suggesting that in the
near future there will be a need for a new City Hall with larger administration
facilities and better parkin~ areas. The letter suggested that a minimllm of five
acres should be acquired, possibly along the new Court Street extension, on which a
modern building could be erected with drive-in features to pay bills and ample
parking racilities and that the present City Hall could be offered for sale to
the County. Commissioner Russell moved that this letter from Florida Acres be
received and that the City Mana~er write them a letter of thanks and that a
Committee be appointed to investigate it and make a recommendation. Motion was
seconded by Commissioner Kennedy and carried unanimously.
The City Attorney read a letter from Mr. W. M. Blanton, 1413 E. Druid Road,
requesting that the City break the curb at San Remo Street on the $outh side of
Druid Road and pave the apron. The City Engineer's report was that the acreage
fronting on Druid belongs to Mr. W. C. Salls and none of it has been dedicated as
a right-of-way for San Remo to continue south of Druid Road. The Engineer reported
that it would be necessary to have a deed for a 60 foot right-of-way from Mr.
Salls in order to reach Mr. Blanton's property. By consent, the matter was
referred back to the Engineer to acquaint Mr. Blanton with this information with
the thought that Mr. Salls and Mr. Blanton mieht reach an agreement on a dedication.
Mr. W. T. Jones from the Clearwater D.A.V. addressed the Commission regarding
the proposal of the D.A.V. to install telescop.es at two locations on City property
at Clearwater Beach, the D.A.V. to receive 10% of the amount collected for the use
of the telescopes. After discussion, Commissioner Strang moved that the matter
be referred to the City Manager for a report at the next meeting. Motion was
seconded by Commissioner Bates and carried unanimously.
The City Attorney read a letter from Mr. W. L. Bassett in which he proposed
to purchase a manufacturing site in the area north of the Municipal Airport and
near the Seaboard Airline Railway on the same terms as those discussed at the
August 2nd meeting. Hi8 letter pointed out that an access road would be required
however. Mr. Bassett who was present agreed to a tentative price of $1,000.00
an acre. Mr. Paul Ficht of the Chamber of Commerce spoke to the Commission
requesting them to take some action concerning the needed access road 50 the
Chamber of Commerce would have some usable manufacturing sites to show prospective
manufacturers who wish to locate in Clearwater. Commissioner Kennedy suggested
that Mr. H. D. Crooker be contacted concerning putting the access road through
his property to reach the City property north of the airport. An alternate
location was suggested to Mr. Bassett of an area immediately south of the Pistol
Range and Mr. Bassett indicated this would be acceptable. Commissioner Bates
moved that the Commission offer Mr. Bassett this section next to the runway pending
clearance from the C.A.A. that it is acceptable, and that we make a thorough
study of the problem of the area as a whole. Motion was seconded by Commissioner
Russell and carried unanimously.
The Mayor appointed a Committee consisting of Commissioners Kennedy and
Strang to work with Mr. Ficht in contacting Mr. Crooker concerning the possibility
of openin~ an access road through his property.
The Commission discussed the correction of the deed to Maas Brothers for the
area fronting on Cleveland Street. By consent, it was decided to secure a photo-
stat of the original deed for study and the matter was referred back to the
Committee for another report.
The City Attorney presented a plat of Bonair Hill Subdivision #3 and the
unplatted land lying between that subdivision and Palmetto Street for the Commission~s
consideration. He read the report from the Zoning Board which was that the plat
and the unplatted area be zoned as R-l. The City Engineer's report was that the
streets are in go~d order and the drainage is good but he recommended that Bonair
Hill Subdivision #2 should be considered for annexation as it lends itself to the
proposed sanitary sewer system and general layout. During the discussion, it was
suggested that the Engineer find out definitely about the right-of-way for Palmetto
Street. By consent, the matter was deferred for further study.
Tile City Manager stated that he asked for proposals on the resurfacing of
Admiral Woodson Lane and recommended that the Commission approve a work order for
$2,500.00 which was the best proposal. Commissioner Strang moved the work order
in the amount of $2,500.00 covering the cost of resurfaCing Admiral Woodson Lane
be approved. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Bates and carried unanimously.

CITY COMMISSION MEETING
August 16, 1954
The City Attorney read a letter from a Committee of Clearwater Beach
Businessmen, signed by Jesse G. Smith as Chairman, which called the Commission's
attention to the traffic congestion on the Clearwater Beach Causeway due to having
only single lane traffic on both bridges and suggesting that the only solution
lies in the construction of a new causeway or bridge. The letter recommended
that studies and surveys be started as soon as possible to get such a projec~
underway. Uuring the discussion, the proposed causeway from Dunedin to Caladesia
Island was mentioned with the possibility that the island could be connected with
the north end of Clearwater Beach Island; then a connection could be made from
the south end of Clearwater Heach with Belleair Beach. Commissioner Russell
suggested that it might be possible to build a second causeway from Sunset Point
Road to Kipling Plaza on Clearwater Beach. It was suggested that it would be
well to consult with uunedin, the County and the State Road Department for if the
road could be designated as a State hi~hway, it would be eligible for financial
aid from the State and Federal Government. Commissioner Russell moved that the
letter be received, that the City Manager acknowledge it and that the suggestion
be referred to the Planning and Zoning Board for their study. Motion was seconded
by Commissioner Bates and carried unanimously.
The City Manager presented a Resolution requiring thirty-nine property owners
to clean their lots of weeds and underbrush. COlnmissioner Strang moved the
Resolution be adopted. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Russell and carried
unanimously.
The City Manager reported that the Recreation Revenue Certificates had been
delivered and the City had received $404,961.00 representing $400,026.00 for the
bonds and accrued interest to date of delivery.
The City Attorney reported that on August 2, 1954, the Commission had adopted
a Resolution permitting Messrs. Smith and Coon to mortgage their interest in the
lease on City-owned property to the extent of $7,000.00 but the motion limi~ed the
period of time to two years. Mr. Ralph Richards, attorney for Smith and Coon,
had since stated that the time limit was too short and at least four years would
be needed. The City Attorney presented an amended Resolution for the Commission's
approval. Commissioner Strang moved the Resolution as amended be passed and adopted
and that the proper officials be authorized to sign it. Motion was seconded by
Commissioner Bates and carried unanimously.
Regarding the replatting of Coachman Heights, the City Attorney reported that
after repeated contacts with all the people concerned and several meetings to
explain the project, it looks as if the culmination of the project is impossible
because while the large property owners have cooperated, there are some individual
property owners who refuse to give their deeds to be held in escrow pending the
filing of a new plat. The City Attorney suggested writing a letter to Mr. H. Lane
Coachman reporting that the City had made every effort to secure a replat but it
was not possible. After discussion, it was decided by consent to ask Mr. Coachman
to discuss the matter with the Commission in person.
The Commission now adjourned as the City Commission and acting as Trustees
of the Pension Fund admitted Leon Walter Bradley, Policeman, to membership in
the Pension Plan on a motion by Commissioner Bates which was seconded by
Commissioner Kennedy and carried unanimously.
There being no further business to come before the Board, the meeting was
adjourned at 6:10 P.M.

Gentlemen:

Re: Lots 43 and ~4,
Block "B"
Belmont Sub. - 2nd Add.
In 1950 ~e applied for a building permit in order to build our two bedroom home.
Our plans called for a carporte and utility room, and at the time, we had full
intentions of going ahead with our house plans 85 the City had approved them.
Due to the lack of sufficient funds, we had to postpone the building of our
carporte & utility room until a further date. At the time our plans were drawn
up it was only necessary to leave a 3 ft. space between the house & the property
line. Now we have finally seen our way clear to go ahead and build the carporte
and utility room but find that it is now a City law that a distance of 5 ft. has
to be left between the house and the line. Since our house plans had already
been approved as drawn, can we still go ahead with our building? We would only
haye ~ ft. left after putting on tne carporte.
Anything that the Commission could do to help us in this matter would be greatly
appreciated.

Lot 3, Glenwood Subdivision
No hardship has been shown, and also it was called to the attention o~ the City
Commission that there was a restriction in the Glenwood Subdivision requiring a
30' set back from any street.
Attached herewith is a copy o~ Mr. Richard's request, together with a layout.
-----------~---------~-~----.------------------~-~~----~-~-.~--~---~----~-----~---
Mr. Oliver Anderson, Secretary
Clearwater Zoning Board
Clearwater, Florida
Dear Mr. Anderson:
I represent Mr. George Adriance who is the owner of Lo~ 3 of Glenwood
Suhdivision. This lot is located at the north east corner of Highland Avenue
and Rosemere Road. The lot has a frontage of seventy-feet on Highland and
one-hundred-ten feet on Rosemere.
The zoning ordinance requires a set back of twenty-five feet on both
Highland and Rosemere. Mr. Adriance has a chance to sell this lot to a man who
intends to build a house ~ronting on Highland. He is, of course, perfectly
willing to set back twenty-five ~eet on Highland, but if he also has to set back
twenty-five feet on Rosemere, and stay five feet from the side line, t~is reduces
the available building space from seventy feet to forty feet. This seems an un-
reasonable situation and it makes it impossible for the purchaser to construct
the kind of home he wants to build on this lot.
In behalf of Mr. Adriance I hereby request that the building line be set at
fifteen ~eet instead of twenty-five ~eet on Rosemere. The only lot affected by
this change would be Lot 46 which lies immediately east of Lot 3. There is a
house already constructed on Lot 48, which house faces east. Consequently there
is not now and never will be any house fronting south on Rosemere Road, because
this street runs only one block from Highland to G1enwood. Under these circum-
stances there can hardly be any reason ~or requiring a set back of t~enty-rive
feet on Rosemere Road.
1 will appreciate it i~ you will bring this matter to the attention of the
Zoning Board at its next meeting.

Mr. Francis Middleton,
City Manager
Clearwater, Florida
Dear Mr. Middleton:
Application for an exception under the hardship provisions of Section 31,
Chapter 23 of the Clearwater City Code is hereby made on behalf of Richard M.
Collins, whom I represent.
Mr. Collins wishes to build a gasoline filling station on Lots 3 and 4,
Carolina Terrace Subdivision, which is zoned by the City as R-2.
This property is located on the Southwest Corner of Woodlawn Street and
Missouri Avenue. Missouri Avenue is the City limits, and the a rea immediately to
the East of this property is in the County and is unZOIe d.
At the time this property was zoned Missouri Avenue was not a through road
as it now is, and it is felt that there are practical difficulties and unnecessary
hardships in implying the strict letter of the Zoning Act in this situation.
I am sending this letter in triplicate to you, and in addition I am sending
one copy thereof to Mr. Oliver Anderson, Secretary of the Zoning Board, with the
request that it be placed on the agenda of the Zoning Board to be considered at
its meeting on August 5, 1954.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Ben Krentzman

Request of Keith Simons

The Board recommends the approval of a set back of 20' on Princess St. and a 131'
set back on Sunset Drive, but that in neitper case shall the setbacks be less than
the established setback o~ existing construction on the adjoining property.
Attached herewith is a copy of Mr. Simons' request, together with layout and plan.

Box 335
Largo, Florida
August 3, 1954
Gentlemen:
I recently purchased the N.E. corner lot at Princess Street and Sunset Drive
(Lot 10, Block g, North Shore Park) and find that the set-back restrictions do
not permit me to build on the most desirable part of the lot.
The set-back restrictions at present are ten feet on Sunset Drive and 25
feet on Princess Street. The house next door to the lot is built on a 20 ft'.
setback from Princess Street and I believe the other houses on that street are
20 ft. or less.
My lot is only 50 ft. wide and to build on the 25 ft. set-back line would
lower the value and desirability of my property as the other homes would block
the air from the east. Also, to be back on the lot will block my view of the
Bay, which.is most desirable.
Therefore. I respectfully request your Board to grant a 20 ft. setback on
Princess Street to relieve the hardship and 13i ft. on Sunset Drive.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Keith Simons

Proposed Pavement Of Union St.
From Edge~ater Dr. To Broad~ay

,
Dear Sir:
Notice of a meeting to be held on August 16 to consider the above project
is the first I have heard o~ this matter, othe\Athan observing the activities
on the Dunedin side of Uhion St. in clearing o~~and.
I called at the City Hall for information and due to the absence City
Manager I was directed to the City Engineer- there I was shown the plans to cover
the pavement of Union St. from Edgewater Dr. to Broadway, and assess the property
o~ners on a basis of the footage owned ~ithout any distinction between the
construction cost on certain sections of the street, nor to the value of the bene-
fits to accrue to various property along the street. This plan of cost distribu-
tion is objected to as grossly unfair and I ask that you consider the follo~ing
points:
I. I o~n 100 feet fronting on Edgewater Dr. and running back 200 feet on Union
St. The last improvement on Edgewater Dr. cost this property $616.34- No
part of which ~as assessed against others though it is used by the public.
2. There is at the present time a satisfactory pavement on Union St. for the
length occupied by residents- thererore there will accrue no benefits ~hatever
to my property by the construction of this street. While I do not object
to any improvements that will give access to what has heretofore been
inaccessible property, it is only fair that those ~ho benefit by such improve-
ments should bear the cost- at least in proportion to the increased valuation
of their property. I would sum it up this way:
A. Lot #3 (my lot) will receive no benefits whatever and the cost of construc-
tion will probably be less than any other section of the street.
B. Lot #4 ~i1l receive some sli~ht benefits.
C. Starting ~ith lot #5 and running for about 8 lots the cost of construction
will be extensive but the value of these lots will increase to at least
three or four times their present value.
In view of the above I submit that I should not be charged for improve-
ments that will not benefit me in the least, but will only increase the value
of property belonging to others.
I hope that members of the Commission will personally inspect the project before
it is voted on.

be approved in accordance with copies furnished each member in writinge Motion
was seconded by Commissioner Bates and carried unanimously.
The Mayor announced the consideration of bids for air conditioning the Sea-Orama
Room at the Clearwater Marina and the City Hall Auditoriwn and suggested that the
Commission also consider advertising for bids for air ccnditioning the second floor
asspmbly room at the Marina which is used by the Chamber of Commerce and other
groups. The City Managpr reported that five bids had been received but that two
of them were late and would have to be rejected. Therefore, he suggested that the
Commission reject all the bids and return `.hem unopened; then the entire project
could be re-advertised and inclu�e the secand floor room at the Marina at tha�
time. Commissioner Bates moved that all b;ids be rejecteti and returned unapened
and that the City 1�1anager take bids on a11 three of the projects at one time.
Motion was seconded by Commissioner Russell and carried unanimously.
The City Manager recommanded that the bid of �1,715.00 from W. H. Armston
Company, the low bidder, ta resurface P�ne Street and Turner Street from Hi3lcrest

recommendation and the Engineer's recommendation that t�. H. Armston Gompany, �nca,
be awarded the resuriacing of Pine and Turner Strsets from Hillcrest to Evergrzen
for a total price o£ �1,715.00 b� accepted. Motion was s econded by Conmissioner
Bates and c arried unanimously.
The Mayor annou:�ced the Public Heasing �n the request of Mr. Ernest A.
MeCall for a fc�ur foot setback line from the side lot line for Lots 43 and 44,
Block B, 2nd Addition to Be�.�ont Subdivi�ion, for an addition to an existing
structure. Tne City Attorney read the request from NIr. McCa11 and the Zoning
Board*s recoramendation which wa� that the request be granted. The Mayor inquired
if there were any objections and there were none. Commissioner Kenuedy moved
that the recommendation of the Zoning Board be approved and that a re�tricted
sstback of four feet be granted. �Iation was seconded by Commissioner Russell
and carried unanimously.
A Public Hearing was announced by the Mayor on the request of Mr. Ralph
Richards for a fi£teen foot setback from Rosemere Road for Lnt 3, Glenwood
Subdivision. The City kttorney read 'the reques� from Mr. Richards on behalf of
Mr. George Ac:'riance and the Zonino Board's recommendat�ion which was that the
request be denied. Mr. Jack Eckhardt and Mr. Joe Beck, adjacent property owners,
objected to granting any change in the 25 faot setback. A letter af objection
was read from Mr. and Mrs. William Tench, Commissioner Bates moved that the
request be denied in accox�dance with the recommendation of tha Zoning Board.
Motion was seconded �ay Commissioner Kennedy and carried unanimously.
The Mayor announced a Public Hearing on the requ.est of Mr, Ben Krentzman
for the re-zoning fram R-2 to Business oi Lots 3 and 4, Block C, Carolina Terrace
Subdivision, to permit construction of a gasoline station. The City Attorney
read the reqixest from Mr. Ben Krentzman on behalf of Mr. Richard M. Collins and
also the Zoning Board�s reconunendation which was that the request be denied as
no hardship was showr� and the area was predominately residential. Mr, R. J.
Mc�ermott, attorney, addressed the Commission for Mr. R. M. Collins stating that
there was no business area at present to serve the pemple residing in Carolina
Terrace, Lakeview Heights and Duncan Subdivisions, anrl presented a petition
signed by seven property owners in B1ock C showing that they wer8 in favor of
the lots being used for a service station. Mr, Gollins addressed the Commission
in support of his request. Commis�ioner Strang remarked that in all probability
the area east of Block C on Missouri Avenue may eventually ccme within the City
limits and since it is apparently developing now as residential prop�erty, the
present usage of that area should be taken into cansidaration in zoning this
property. Commissioner Strang moved that this Public Hearing be adjourned to
September 7: 1954, and that this request be returned to the Zoning Board with the
addi�cional information of this petition for their further consideration, it having
appeared that this petition was not presented at the time the matter was considered
by the Zoning Board, yIotion was seconded by Commissioner Bates and carried
unanimously,

twenty foot setback from Princess Street and a thirteen and one-half foot buildi�ng
setback 1'ine from Sunset Drive for Lot 10, Block $, North Shore Park.. The City
Attorney read the•request oi Mr. Simons and the recommendation of the Zoning Board
which vlas that the request be appro�ed if the setbacks are not less than �h� esta-
blished setback of existing con�tructian on adjoi.ning property. Mr. Ambrose
Carlson, owner of Lot 11, Block $, objected to the granting of the 20 foot setback
irom Princess Street as it would interfere with his view. It was pointed out that
all of the existing houses on Princess Street including Mr. Carlson�s had setbacks
of t�enty feet. Mr. Frank Carmack, owner of adjoining proparty to the north,
reported that he had izo objection. Commissioner Bates m�ved that the request be
granted in conformity with our opir_ion and the recommendation of the Zoning Board.

A Public Hearing was called on the proposed 30 foo� paving, curb and drainage
of Union Str�et fr,om Edgewater Drive to IIroadway. The City 1"1anager from Dunedin,

estimated on the south half of Union Street, to be ass�ssed according to fooL'age.

the street would have to be graded. He expressed his approval oi the project.
The City Attorney read a letter from Mr, W. E. Poole, owner of Lot 3' Rainbows End,
�ointing out that l�0 feet of his 1ot ironted on Edgewater Drive and it runs back
200 feet on Union Street. He stated that his lot would derive no benefit from
the paving �f Union Street as there was alread.y an adequate paving there. Mr.
J'ohn Rowe a:t3dressed the Commission pointing out that the proposed assessment against
Mr. Poole would be approxzmately �1a000.00 which would be most unfair according
to benefits received. Commissioner Bates suggested that Mr. Poole's property be
assessed for drainage and curb but not for paving, Commissioner Bates moved that
the Coramission approve this project and authorize the work to be done, the bids
to be takvn a�rd-��re-�vo-rit--�o he-do�e�, and the properties to be assessed according
to the benefits rE•ceived with the understanding that it be a 30 foot street on a
SO-50 cost basis with llunedin, and that we are also in agreement at �his time
that the paving assessment would not involve this one piece of property. i�iotion
was seconded by Commissioner Kennedy and carried unanimously.

consideration. He read the report from the Zoning Board which was tha;, thE plat
and the un�latted area be zoned as R-1. The City Engineer's report was that the
streets are in 000d order and the drairage is good but he recommended that Bonair
Hill Subdivision �2 should be considered for annexation as it lends ?tself to the
Frogosed sanitary sewer systeM and oeneral layout. Dnring the discussion, it was
suggested that the Engineer find out deiir_itely about th� right-of-r�say for Palmetto

CITY �OMMISSION MEETING
August 16, 1q54
The City Attorney read a letter from a Committee of Clearhater Beach
Businessmen, signed by Jesse G. Smith as Chairman, which called �he Commission�s
attention ta the traffic congestion on the Clearwater Beach Causeway due to having
only single lane tra�fic on boti: bridges and suggesting that the only solution
lies in tl�e construction of a new causeway or bridge. The lettar recommended
that studies an1 surveys be started as soon as possible to get such a project
Ltnderway. During the disc�zssion, the proposed causeway from Dunedin to Caladesia
Island was mentioned with the possibility that the island could be conneated with
the north end of Clearwater Beach Island; then a connection could be made from
the south end of Clearwater Beach with Belleair Beach. �ommissiongr Russell
suggest�d that it mi�ht be possible to build a sscond causeway from Sunset Point
Road to Kipling Pla�a on Clearwater Beach. It r�as snggested that it would be
well to consu],� with �unedin, the County and the Statp Road Department for if th:e
road could be designated as a State hi�hway, it would be eligible for financial.
aid from the S�ate and Federal Government. Commissioner Russ�?:L moved that the
letter be ieceived, that the City M�nager acknowledge it and that the suggestion
be referred to the Planning and Zonin� Board for their study. Motion was seconded
by Commissioner Bates and carried unanimously.
The City �ianager presented a Resolution requiring thirty-nine property owners
to clean tr,eir lots of weeds and unde�brush. Commissioner Strang moved the
Resolution be adopted. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Russell and carried
unanimously.
The City Manager reported that the Recreation Revenue Certificates had been
delivered and the City had rece:�ved �404.,961.00 representing �400,026.00 for the
bonds and accrued interest to date of delivery.
The Gity Attorney reported tha� on August 2, 1954, the Commission had adopted
a Resolution permitting Messrs. Smith and Coon to mortgage their interest in the
lease on Gity-owned property to the extent of �7,000.00 but the motion limited the
period o�' time to two years. Mr. Ralgh Richards, attorney for Smith and Coon,
had since stated that the time limit was too short and at least four years would
be needed. The Ci.ty Ati:erney presented an araended Resolution for the Commission's
approval. Commissioner Strang moved the Resolution as amended be pasUed and adopted
and that the proper officials be authorized to sign �t. Mofiion was seconded by
Commissioner Bates and carried unanimously.
Regarding the replatting oi Coachman Hei�hts, the City Attorn�y reported that
afLer repeated coritacts with all the peaple concerned and several meetings to
explain the project, it looks as if the culmination o� the proj�ct is impossible
because while the large property owners have cooperated, there are some individual
property ot3ners who refuse to give their deec�s to be held in escraw pending the
iiling of a new pla�. The City Attorne;� suggested writing a letter to Mr. H. Lane
Coachman regorting that the City had made every effort to secure a replat but it
was not possible. �fter discussion, it was decided by consent to ask Mr. Coachman
to discuss the matter with the Coaunission in person.
The Cormnission now adjourned as the City Commission and acting as Trustees
of the Pension Fund admitted Lean Walter Bradley, Policeman, to memb�rship in
the Per►sion ylan on a motion by �ommissioner Bates which was seconded by
Commissioner Kennedy and carried unanimously.

Belmont Sub. - 2nd Add.
In 1950 we apgli�d for a building permit in order t� bui:ld our two bedroom home..
- Our plans called for a carporte and utility room, and at the time, we had full
inten-tions of going ahead with our house plans as the Qity Yiad approved them.
Due to the lack of sufficient funds, we had to postpone the building of our
carparte �c utility room until a further date. At the time our plans were drawn
up it was only necessary to leave a 3 ft. space between the house 3c the propertq
line. Now we have f inally seen our way clear to go ahead and build the carporte
and utility room bLt find that it is nAw a City la�r that a distance of 5 ft. has
to be left between the house and the line. 3ince our house plans had alreadq
been approved as drawn, can we still. go ahead with our building? We would only
have �. �'t. left after putting on ti�e carporteo
Anything tha.t the Commission could do to help us in this matter would be greatlp

Lot 3, Glenwood Subdivisi.on

No hardship has been s.own, and also it was called to'the attention o£ th� City
Couunissian that there was a restriction in the Glenwood Subdiwision requiring a
30' set back from any street. •

Mr. Oliver Ander�on, Secretarp
Clearwater Zoning Board
Clearwater, F�orida
Dear Mr. Anderson:
July 1�, 1954
I represent �Ir. George Pdriance who is the owner of I,ot 3 of Glenwood
Subdivision. This lot is located at the north east corner of Highland avenue
and Rosemere Road. The lot �as a frontage of seventy-i'eet on Highland and
one-hundred-ten feet on Rosemere.
The zonin; ordinance requires a set back of twenty-five fe�t on both
Highland and Roseanere. Mr. Adriance has a chance to sell this 3.o�t to a man who
intencis to build a house fronting on Hi�hland. He is, of course, per�ectly
willing to set back twenty-£xve f eet on Highland, but if he also has to set back
twenty-five feet on Rosemere, and stay five feet grom the side �.ine, thi,s reduces
the available building space fram sever.ty �eet to forty feet. This seems an un-
reasonab].� situation and it makes �.t impossible for the purchaser to �onstruct
the kind of home he wants to build on this 3.ot.
In behalf of Mr. Adriance I ner�by request that the building line be set at
fifteer_ feet inste�d of twenty-five £eet on Rosemere. The only lot affected by
this chang� would 'oe Lot k� which lies immediately east of Lot 3. There is a
house already constructed on Lot 4$, which house faces easi. Consequently there
is not now and never v�ill be �ny house f'ronting suuth on Rosemere Road, because
this street runs only one block from Highland to Glznwood. Under these cireum-
stances tl�ere can hardly be any reason for requirirag a set baek qF twenty-five
feet on Rosemere Road.
I will appreciate it if you will bring this matter tQ the attention oi the
Zoning Board at its next meeting.
�ery truly yours,
/s/ Ralph Richards

The Board recommends the denial �f the request a.f Ben Krentzmane
Lots 3 a*�d �., Block G, Carolina Terrace Sub.
For the reasons that there has been no hardship shocan, as this is pre-
dominantly a residen�ial area.
Attahhed herewith is a copy of Mr. Krentzman's request,
Mr. Francis Middleton,
City Manager
Clearwater, Florida
Dear Mr. Middleton:
Aug. 2, 1954
Application for an exception under the hardship provisions of Section 31,
Chapter 23 of the Clearwater City Code is hereby m�de on b ehalf of Richard M.
Collins, whom I represent.
Mr. Collins wishes to buil.d a gasoline filling station on Lots 3 and !�,
Carolina Terrace Subdivision, wrhich is zoned by the City as R-2.
This property is located on the Southwest Corner of Woodlawn Street and
Missouri Avenue. Missouri Avenue is the City limits, and the a rea immediately to
the East of this property is in the County and is nnzox� d.
At the time this property was zaned Missouri Avenue was not a through road
as it now is, and it is felt that there are practical difficulties and unnecessary
hardships in implying the strict letter of the Zoning Act in this situation.
I am sending this letter in triplica�e to you, and in addition I am sending
one copy thereof to Mr. Oliver Anderson, secretary of the Zoning �oard, with the
request that it be placed an the a genda of the Zoning Board to be considered at
its meetang on August 5, 1954.

Box 335
Largo, Elorida
August 3, 1�51�
I recently purahased the N.E, corner lot at Princess Street and Sunseic Drive
(Lot 10, Block $, Nmrth 8hore Park) and find that the set-back restrict�.ons do
not parmit me to �uild on the most desirable part of the lot.
The set-back restrictions at present are ten feet on 8unset Drive and ?�
feet on Princess Stre�t. The house next door to the 1ot is bu:ilt or� a 20 i�<
sethack from Princess Stree� and I believe the other houses on tha� street are
20 ft. or less.
My lot is only 50 ft. wide and to build on the 25 ft, set-back line w�uld
lower the value and desirability of my property as the ather homes would bZock
the air from the east. Also, to be back on the lot- will block my v�ew of the
Bap, which is most desirabls.
Therefore, I respectiully request your Board to grant a 20 ft. setback on
Princess Street to relieve the hardship and 13� ft. on Sunset Dx�ve.
Very truly yours,

CITY GOMMISSION MEETING
August 16, 1954
August II 1954
5ubject: Proposed Pavement Of Union St.
From Edgewater Dr. To Broadway
Notiae of a meeting to be held on August I6 to consider the above project
is the f irst � have heard ai thi,s matter, other than observing the activities
on the Dunedin side o� Ui�ion St, in clearing of�.an@.
I called at the City Hall for information and due to the absence City
Manager I was directed to the City Engiheer- there I was shoim the plans to cover
the pavement of Union 8t. �'rom Edgewater Dr. to Broadway, and assess the property
nwners on a b:asis of the footage owneci without any distinction between the
oonstructior, cost on certain sections of the street, nor to the vaZue o€' the bene-
fits to accrue to various property along the street. This plan of cost distribu-
tion is objected to as grossly unfair and I ask that you consider the following
poin�s:
I. I own 100 i'eet frontin� on Edgewater Dr, and running back 200 feet on Union
5t. The last improvement on Edgewater Dr. cost tnis property �616.34- �to
part of which was assessed against other� though it is used by th� public.
2, There is at the present time a satisfactory pavement on Uniori St. for the
length occupied by r esidents- therefore there will accrue no benefa.ts whatever
to my property by the constrtxction of this street. While I do not object
to any improvements that will gbve access to what has heretofore been
inaccessible property, it is only fair that those who benefit by such improve-
ments should beaz• the crrst- at least in proportion to the increased valuation
of their property. I would sum it up tha.s way:
A.
B.
Lot y�3 (my lot) will receive no benefits whatever and the cost of construa-
tion will probably be less than any other section of the street.
Lot #4 will receive some sli;ht benefits.
C. Starting with lot #5 and running for about $ lots the cost of construction
will be extensive but the value of these lots will increase �o at leas�
three or four times their gresent value.
In view of the above I submit that I shou]_d not ba charged for improve-
ments that will not benefit me in tne least, but will only increase the value
of property belonging to others.
I hope tha�t m�mbers oi' the Eommission will personally ix�spect the project before
it is voted on.
