Woolley, President of Pinebrook and Palm Terrace Civic Association, was read stating that they had been informed that some real estate subdivisions just north of Pinebrook were applying for annexation to the City and the Association felt that if those areas were annexed, the City should require that the developers comply with all of the City standards for new sub- divisions before being taken into the City. The City Manager said it was his belief that Colonel Wooley was under a misapprehension as to what subdivision had applied for annexation as no area in?mediately north of Pinebrook is being con- sidered for annexation at this time. Commissioner Russell moved that the letter be accepted and acknowledged by the Clerk. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Strang and carried unanimously. The City Nianager presented an application from Mr. Stuart Golding to erect a billboard sign, 30 feet by 4 feet, nn top of the Small Boat Nfarina, After some discussion, the application was referred to the Zoning Board for its recommendation. ??, I® :fV, ?,,, ??? ? ,?, ? . f :?r?-"i°)4f??t?itit:. r4}"iRrti'?i?r :? ra?? • ?.;.cS??;,t •. i 1?

Yj,?;;:,;rnt ,,,., :" In regard to a Committee report on ttie South Shore Civic Association's suggestion to purchase bayfront land between Turner and Rogers Streets, Commissioner Strang requested that the matter be deferred to the next meeting as the Committee had not had a conference on the matter yet. The City 1°janager presented a Resolution requiring three property owners to clean their lots of weeds and underbrush. Commissioner Strang moved the Resolution be adopted, Motion was seconded by Conunissioner Russell and carried unanimously. The City Attorney reported that the exchange of deeds with the Pinellas County board of Instruction for the Negro Swimming Pool site, the cemetery site, etc., had been accomplished. In discussing the bids for the folding chairs for the new Baseball Stadium, the City Manager recommended the U channel frame type chair at X2.96 each. Mr. Bill Sult from the American Seating Company addressed the Commission requesting that the City examine the quality of the chairs made by his company, pointing out that they would withstand the weather conditions better and, had a lifetime guarantee. After discussion, Mr. Sult was notified that the bids would be awarded at the next meeting and he would be notified as to the date. Mr. A. D, Finch addressed the Commission on behalf of Mr. David Brown, developer of Edenville Subdivision, and asked if the Commission would give tentative approval of the proposed subdivision so the work on the streets, sewers, and water lines could begin. He was informed that it would be necessary to change the size of the corner lots in the plat to an $0 foot width and that the plat should be signed by all of the owners of the property. Mr. Finch said Mr. Brown had signed the contract in accordance with Ordinance 63z and would comply with all of the City's requirements. The jfayor commented that tentative approval would be given now sub ject to the final approval of the plat. In discussing the sand filter proposed for the subdivision, Commissioner Stran said that there should be an agreement that every house constructed in the area would be provided with a grease trap in order to make the sand filter operate properly and the Building Inspector should be notified of this requirement. The City Engineer stated that the use of the sand filter bed should be considered temporary and should be permitted only until such time as sanitary sewers become available. The Commission now adjourned as the City Commission and acting as Trustees of the Pension Fund admitted Alex Elroy j??athis, laborer in the Parks Department, to membership in the Pension Plan, subject to a waiver of any disability due to hernia, on a motion by Commissioner Strang which was seconded by Commissioner Russell and carried unanimously. There being no further business to come before the Commission, the meeting was adjourned at 6;x.0 P.M. Attest: ity Au ito? nd lerk ?? ?, ?'rN,`ty ????r? F f?i?3ti rn? ???yy ? ,' r ??:. ??

The Zoning Board recommends that we approve Item ?1 of the request which allows {? the rezoning of the north 1501 to R-4. from R-2 and that we recommend denial of '?"? Item ?{2 in rezoning the W-50' of the South 100' of the lot to be used far business purposes; the reason being that we do not consider Item ?2 as a zoning Hardship case. Attached here to is letter of request. Clearwater 'Coning Board Clearwater, Florida. Gentlemen: ;? ???'?>?'?`'"?? I have owned Tract A, Hillcrest Drive Resub, for more than ten years, It is ';;;`,'?:,' now zoned R-2, although it is bounded by R-y. on the West and Business on the {??"'?'????' ` south. The property across Hillcrest Drive is zoned R-2. ;?: a?`''f?t`?'':; I wish to request two changes: '.,,; 1. To re-zone the North 1.50 feet to R-4. This for the reason that it has `'t'='„?'?;?

IDA MAE LESTER of 71$ Grand Central Avenue, Clearwater, Florida owner of Lots lIf Block 4 Milton Park Subdivision requests the rezoning of said lot from R-4 to M. R, M. THOMPSON Q?NSTkUCTION COMPANY owns, at present Lots $, 9, and 10, of Block 4, Milton Park Subdivision, Clearwater, Florida as well as the lot set forth above. Lots $, 9, and 10 are now zoned as M but further expansion of the Company's operation is restricted due to the fact that the other company lot, and the subject of this Petition, Lot 11, is in an R-4 Area. It is the understanding of the Petitioners that Lot 11 was zoned as M up until ?lecember of 1952. It is submitted that the market value of Lot 11 zoned as R-4 is depressed by virtue of such zoning when the adjacent lot to the west is zoned as M and when lots to the South West and Northwest are also zoned as M. In addition the company is restricted in its expansion facilities by reason of the current zoning arrangement. It should be noted that the company has occupied this section for several years, and has operated business operations from this section prior to the zoning change of December 1952. JOSEPH W. AND IllA MAE LESTER join in this request to have the property owned by them as set forth above changed from R-4 zoning to M. The zoning Board is already aware of the zoning arrangement of these lots as of December of 1952. The fact is apparent that the area zoned as M lies due west of the Lester property and also due north with the exception, in the latter instant, of one intervening lot also zoned as R-4 between the Lester property and M area. The effect is that the Lester property altr?ough zoned a R-4 is virtually surrounded by M zoned areas. Although desirous of realizing a sale of the property it is almost impossible to locate a buyer other than one interested in operations requiring M zoning. This is particularly true when consideration is given to nearby lumber yards, building supply houses, packing houses, and other manufacturing activities. The additional fact that the main track of the Seaboard Railroad runs near and through the above section makes the area desirable for business activities but undesirable for residential and other activities permissable in R-?. area. The effect is that the fair market value of the land is depressed under R-4 zoning conditions although this same area had been zoned M until December 1952• WHEREFORE your Petitioners R. M, THO?tiIPSON CO., JOSEPH W. LESTER, JR. and IDA MAE LESTER join in this petition requesting that the properties awned by the petitioners as set forth in the first part of this Petition be rezoned under the 'rhardship" provisions of Ordinance 627 from R-4 to M. /s/ E.

My lot backs up against another lot which faces Regent St. So actually there are just two lots on Magnolia making it a side street. Druid Acres Subdivision restrictions are Set Back 25' Side Lines 7' and Side Streets 15'. Now since the City has taken the subdivision into the City. The City restriction on the Side street is 25' as against 15' and 5' against 7' on the side lines has me confused as to where to set my house. My house plans have been worked out before the City had taken over and show the seven foot side line set back and would have 23? feet on the side street or a foot and one half Over the City restriction. It is my sincere hope that the zoning board will go along with me and allow me to build as originally planned. Very truly yours, /s/ Edwin W. Koch 900 S.

Clearwater, Fla, Jan. 10, 1955 Memorandum to the City Commission, Clearwater, Fla. (Care Mr. Middleton, City Manager.) It has been called to our attention that the real estate subdivions just north of this area in Clearwater are attempting to get city annexation and con- veniences for their area that is substandard to city specifications. The Pinebrook and Palm Terrace Civic Association which is adjacent to this area feel that these new sub-divisions should be required to meet the city standards before being permitted to enjoy or use the city facilities. The t?rpe of buildings and streets in that new area are definatel}' below other new subdivisions in the city and have a tendency to lower values in this area. If not corrected now, it might eventually develop into a low standard or even slum district that would cause the city and this area much trouble. These new areas should definately be required to meet the standards for new additions as laid down by city ordnance. This could be by assessment on property or possibly by damages against the developer who apparently knew of these specifi- cations and thought he could force the city to accept them as they now exist. This organization approves the principles laid down in your ordnance for admission of new real estate subdivisions. We object to lowering of standards for above mentioned or any other area in Clearwater for admissions to the city. We recommend that the City of Clearwater take steps to coordinate with the county of a set of building standards for areas adjacent to the city that eventually will be included in the city proper within the next decade or so. This should eliminate a reoccurance of the present situation and make new developers play honest. /s/ Harold D. Woolley Colonel, USP., Retired.

The P�ay�r commented that tentative approval would be gi.ven now sub ject to the final approval of the plat o In di scussing the sand. filter proposed for ths subdivision, Commissioner 5tranj said that �,here should be an aereement that every house constructed in the area would be provided with a grease trap in order to make the sand filter operate �rogerly and the Buildi:ng Inspector should be notified of this reauzrement.

Satterfieldts Request The Zoning Board recomrnends that we approve Item #1 of the request which allows the rezoning of the north 150� to R-4 from R-2 and that we recommend denial of Item �2 in rezaning the W-50T of the South 100� of the lot to be used £or business purposes; the reason being tliat we do not consider Item �2 as a zoning Hardship case. AttaGhed here to is letter of request. Glearwater Zonino Board ClearY+ater, Florida. Gentlemen: January 5, 1955 I have owned Tract A, Hillcrest Drive Resub, for more than ten years. It is now zoned R-2, although it is bounded by R-!� on �he West and Business on the south. The property across Hillcrest Drive is zoned R-2. I wish to request two char.ges: L To re-zone the North 150 feet to R-l�., This for the reason that zt has alwaya ��en my intention to build an apartment house on the north of the lot; furthe� because the adjoining property in the same block is designated and improved as ,�i-4. This makes a restrictior_ �f My corner iot to a duplex unreasonable. 2. To re-zone the West 50t of the South 100� of the lot to whatever classi£ication is necessary to allow me to pu� a storage building thereon, This �.s for my own use in a businsss I own, and the only activit;� would be ` fillina and gacking plastic bottles, and receivin� and shiFping li�t shipments by truck common carrier. There would be no noise, odor or other objecbienable aspect. Trucks would call only two or three times a week, in the alley, whieh is already opened and used to serve bu�iness buillings fac3.ng (or backing up to) the alley an the other side, which side is zoned £or business. It is also my intention to build a residence or duplex on the Hillcrest Drive side, which will effectively screen the building from that side. l�y property is perfectly suited to the purpose I have; it can be no detriment to surrounding progerty. I have searched di.lioently for othex property which wi11 serve my purpose, at a price I can afford to pay, and have not found it. I shall appreciate it if you will plac� this on your agenda for the meeting January 6th. I shall attend in order to give further expl.anations and an�wer any questions. JES:s Sincerely, /s/ J.

IDA MAE LESTER of 71$ Grand Central Avenue, Clearwater, Florida owner of Lots 1L� Block 4 i�Iilton Park Subdivision requests the rezoning of said lot from R-4 to NI. R. M. THOMPSO N� NSTRUCTION COMPANY owns, at present Lots $, 9, and 10, af Block 1�, Milton Park Subdivision, Clearwater, Florida as well as the lot set forth above. Lots $, 9, and l0 are now zoned as M but furth�r expansion of the Company's operation is restricted due ta the fact that the other company lot, and the subject of this Petition, Lot 11, is in an R-� Area. It is the understanding of the Petitioners that Lot 11 was zoned as N up until �ecember of 1952. It is submitted that the rnarket value of Lot ll zoned as R-!� is depressed by virtue oF such zoning �vhen the adjacent lot to the west is zoned as M and when lots to the South West and Northvrest are also zoned as vI. In addition the cempany is restricted in its expansion facilities by reason of the current zoning arrangement. It should be noted tYiat the company has occupied this section for several years, and has operated busir.ess operations from tnis section prior to the zoning change of December 1952. JOSEPH L�7. AIvD IDA MAE LESTER join in triis request to have the propertp owned by them as set forth above changed irom R-l� zonin� to M. The zoning Board is already aware of the zoning arrangement of these lots as of December of' 1952. The iact is apparent that the area zon�d as M lies due west of the Lester property and also due north with the exception, in the latter instant, of one intervening lot also zoned as R-!� between the Lester property and I�4 area. The effect is that the Lester groperty although zoned a R-4 is virtually surrounded by i�i zoned areas. Although desirous of realizing a sale oi the property it is almost impossible to locate a buper other than one intei•ested in opera�icns requiring M zoning. This is particularly true wh�n consideration is �iven to nearby lumber yards, building supply houses, packing houses, and o�ther manufacturing activities. The additional iact th at the main track of the 5eaboard Railroad runs near and through tlie above section makes the area desirabl8 for business activities but undesirable for residential and oLher activities perruissable in R-i�. area. The effect is that the fair market value of the land is depressed under R�4 zoning conditions although this same area had been zoned �I until �ecember 195z. �9HEREFQRE your Petitioners R. M.

PINEBROOK AND PALM TERRACE CIVIC AS;�CIATION. ClearwatQr, Fla. Jan. 10, 1955 Memorandum to the City Commission, Clearwater, Fla. (Care Mr. Middleton, City Manager>) It has been called to our attention thai, the real estate subdivions just north of this area in Clearwater are attempting to get eity annexation and con- venienaes for their area tl?at is substandard �o city specifications, The Pinebrook and Palm Terrace Civic Association which is adjacent to this area feel that these new sub-divisions should be required to meet the city standards before bsing permitted to enjoy or use the city facilities. The type of buildings and streets in that new area are definately below other new subdivisions in the city and have a tendency to lower values in this area. If not corrected now, it might eventually develop into a 1ow standard or even slum district that would cause the city and this area much trouble. These neiv areas should definatply be required to meet the standards for new additions as laid down by city ordnance. This could be by assessment on property or possibly by damages against the developer who apparently knew of these specifi- cations and thought he co�ld force the city to accept them as they now exisb. Tliis oi•ganization approves the principles laid down in your ordnance for admission of new real estate subdivisions. We object to lowering of standards for above mentioned or any other area in Clearwater for admissions to the city. We recommend that the City of Clearwater tal:e steps to coordinate with the caunty of a set of building standards for areas adjacent to the city that eventually will be included in the city proper within the next decade or so. This should eli�ainate a reoccurance of the present situation and make new developers play honest. /s/ Harold D. Wooll.ey Colon2l, USA, Retired, President, Pinebrook and Pa1ra Terrace Civic Assn.
