CITY COMMISSION MEETING
June 13, 1955
Mr. Lloyd Phi11ips, attorney, appeared before the Commission on behalf of
an unnamed client who'had applied for and received a City occupational license to
sell ice cream and milk products from a truck but had been refused a permit from
the Police Department to peddle ice cream on the beach. He pointed out that there
was no ordinance which prohibited sellinf, ice cream and other products on the beach
and reque sted that his client be ~iven permission by the Commission. The C1 ty
Manager reported that he had followed the policy of not having the type of peddlers
on the beach on ~Rturdays, 0undays and holidays that would result in cluttering up
the beach and this one was of that type. He said the State Board of Health had
stepped in and removed quite a number of themj however, this one was complying
wi th the 0tate law. The r~ayor cOllmented that Clearwater has a nice clean town and
a nice beach and he was in favor of k8epin~ it from growing into a Coney Island.
He said there were a number of people with property valued over $100,000.00 facing
the beach who should bE) protected too. ChiElf l'~cClClmrna reported that he had denied
the applicant the ri~ht to peddle on the beach mainly becRuse of the traffic
hazard. He said the a~r-licnnt was instructed that he could not operate downtown
or on tho beach. 'l'he Mayor W',IS in i'r:1vor of stoFFdn;; the peddling on the beach
not only becauso of the traffic hazard but because an unsi~htly condjtion would
exist from it. He thought that the small business man who is paying taxes and
having a substantial payroll to meet every week should have a measure of protection
and also that the people who h8ve property facir.g the beach should be consulted
as to their wishes in the matter. Commissioner Bohannon said it would be well to
look into some of the other ice cream carts that are going around on the mainland
and see what licenses they are operating under. Corr~issioner Strang su~gested
that a Cownittee be appointed to check this matter. The Mayor appoi.nted the
Police Chief, the City Manager and the City Attorney as a Committee to make a
report ont-he legal position of the Commission and to check the duplicate of the
license that Wus issued.
The City Manager presented a list of water main extensions that had been
made under $300.00 each, totalling $1,390.00, and a list of ~as main eKtensions
also less than $300.00 each, totallin~ $1,600.00. These lists are set out in the
following pages of these mir.utes and by reference are made a part hereof. On the
recommendation of the City Manager, Commissioner Strang moved that the work order
be approved on gas mains for seven installations in the amount of $1,600.00 and
the work order be approved on the water mains in the amount of $1,390.00. Motion
was seconded by Commissioner Bohannon and carried unanimously.
The City Manager recorr~ended that 510 feet of two inch water main extension
be installed on Bertland Way between betty Lane and Parkland Way in Floradel
Subdivision, outside the City limits. He reported that the estimated cost was
$465.00, check for which was on file from Mr. Al Gauslin. Commissioner Strang
moved that the contract with Mr. Gauslin in the amount of $465.00 on a refunding
basis be approved and that the proper officials be authorized to execute it.
Motion was seconded by Commissioner Bohannon and carried unanimously.
The City Manager reported that he had received a letter from Mr. Fred J.
\"Jes€?meyer, President of A & W Glads, Inc., requesting a refunding contract for
3,785 feet of two inch water main installed in Skycrest Unit 9 Subdivision at a
cost of $2,043.90. He said that Mr. M. C. Duffy of the Gas and Water Department
had checked the statement and found it to be accurate. The Mayor suggested that
a policy be established that the refunding contract must be signed at the time
the lines are installed. Commissioner Strang suggested that the matter be taken
under advisement and that the City 111anager be requested to check to find out how
many meters there are on the line now, the condition of the main, and if the line
is not tied in, what the estimated cost of tying in will be. By consent, the
Commission agreed to this procedure.
The City Manager presented a re~uest for a refunding contract from Mr. D. A.
Salls for 4,342 feet of six inch water main, 300 feet of four inch water main and
2,919 feet of two inch water main in Salls Subdivision Units 1, 2 and 3 at a cost
of $14,950.16. The City Attorney reported that the City had not yet obtained from
Mr. Salls a proper easement throu~h property outside the City to connect the
sanitary sewer lines in Salls Subdivision Units 1, 2 and 3 with the lines in Sirmons
Heights. Corr~issioner Stran~ moved that the refunding contract with Mr. D. A.
Salls in the amount of $14,950.16 be approved and the proper officials be authorized
to execute it subject to Mr. Salls delivering the satisfactory easements for
sanitary sewer to the City Attorney. Motion was seconded by Commissioner Bohannon
and carried unanimously.
The Mayor pointed out that these subdividers were able to do something the
City could not do -- negotiate a contract -- that if the City were doing the work,
bids would have to be taken.
In regard to the old WSUN radi6 buildin~ and cottage on city-owned property
at the west end of Courtney Campbell Causeway, the City Manager reported that the
:property was in fair shape, that the tenant building could be put into condition
and ranted if the Co~nission so desires; that the old WSUN building itself needs
repair, painting, sanding of the floor; that both buildings need termiting and
painting inside and out. He estimated the work could be done for $1,200.00 for
both or about $600.00 for each. The Mayor suggested that action be deferred on
renting the cottage to give the Commissioners time to consider the matter. The
Manager commented that he and the City Engineer were of the opinion that the part
of the property the tenant building is located on would be the best location for
the future disposal plant and the building would need to be moved at that timea

CITY COMMISSION MEETING
June 13, 1955
Commissioner Strang suggested selling the tenant building unless it was to
be used for a custodian for the City property. The Manager stated that the Bay
View Civic Club had offered to paint the large building in return for permission
to use it for meetings, etc. Commissioner Bohannon moved that a work order not
to exceed $600.00 be set up in accordance with the City Manager's recommendation
to put it in shape for the people of the community there to use it. Motion was
seconded by Commissioner Strang and carried unanimously.
Commissioner Strang suggested that he thought it would be a good idea for
the City Manager to look into the mnttor of requiring some of the City employees
who are not in uniform, such as the Building Department inspectors and Gas and
W~ter Department employees, whose duties require them to go out and meet the
p~blic to carry some sort of identification card with a picture on it.
There being no further business to c orne before the Commission, the meeting
was adjourned at 3:30 P.M.

the Police Department to peddle ice cream on the beach. He pointed out that there
was no ordinance which prohibited selling ice cream and other products on the beach
and requested that his client be given � ermission by the Commission. The City
NIanager reported that he had followe�i the policy of not having the type of peddlers
on the beach on Sa�turdays, Sundays and holiaays that would result in cluttering up
the beach and this one was of that �ype. He said the State Board of Health had
stepped in and removed quite a number of them; however, this one v�as comglyi,ng
with the State law. The P�Iayor corranented that Clearwater has a nice clean town and
a nice beach and he was in favor of kesping it from growing iz�o a Coney Island.
He said there were a number of people with property valued over �100,000.00 facing
the beach who shauld be protected too. Chief NicClamma reported that hz had denied
the applicant the right to peddle on the beach mainly because of the traffic
hazard. He said the arplicant was instructed that he could not operate downtown
or on the beach. The Mayor was in favor of stopping the peddling on the beach
not only because of the traffic hazard but becauss an unsightly condition would
exist from it. He thou�nt that the small business man who is paying taxes and
having a substantial pa.yroll to meet every week should have a measure of protection
and also that the people who have groF�erty facing the beach should be consulted
as to their wishes in the matter. Commission�r Bohannon said it tiould be well to
look into some of the other ice crPam carts that are going around on the r�ainland
and see what licenses they are operating under. Cosmissioner Strang suF,gested
that a Committee be appointed to check this matter. The i�Iayor appointed the
Police Chief, the City Manager and the City Attorney as a Committee to make a
report on the legal position of the Commission and to check the duplicate of the
license that was issued.
The City Manager, presented a list of watpr main extensions that had been
made under �$300.00 each, totalling �1,390.00, and a list of gas main extensions
also less than �300.00 each, tota115.�g �1,600.00. These lists are set out in the
fo.tlowing pages of these minutes and hy reference are made a part hereof. Qn the
recommendation of the City Manager, Commissioner Strang moved th2t the work order
be approved on gas mai�ns for seven installations in the amount of �'1,60G.00 and
the work order be approved on the water mains in the amount of �1,3g0.00. Motion
was seconded by Commissioner Bohanr.on and carriea unanimously.
The City Manager reconunended that 510 feet of two inch water main extension
be installed on Ber�land Way between Betty Lane and Parkland Way in Floradel
Subdivisiun, outside the City limits. He reported that the estimated cost was
��.65.00, check for which was on file From Mr. Al Gausl�n. Commissioner Btrang
mov ed that the contract with Mr. Gauslin in the amount af �y.65.00 on a refunding
basis be approved and that the proper officials be autho��ized to Execute it.
Motion was seconded by Commissioner Bohannon and carried unanim�usly.
The City Manager reported that he had received a letter from Mr. Fred J.
Wesemeyer, Pr.esident of A 8c V�r Glads, Inc., requesting a refunding contract for
3,7$5 feet of two inch water mai�, installed in Skycrest Unit 9 Subdivision at a
cost of �2,043.90. He said that Mr. M. C. Duffy of the Gas and PJater Department
had checked the statement and found it to be accurate. The Nayor suggested that
a policy be established that the refunding contract must be signed at the time
the lines are installed. Commissioner Strang suggested that the matter be taken
under advisement and that the City i�'ianager be requested to check to find out how
many meters there are on the line now, the condition of th� main, and if the line
is not tied in, what the estimated cost of tying in will be, By consent, the
Commission agraed to this procedure.
The City ��Fanager presented a request for a refunding contract from Mr. D, A.
Salls for 4,31�2 feet of six inch water main, 300 feet of four inch water main and
2,g19 feet of two inch water main in Salls Subdivision Units 1, 2 and 3 at a cost
c�f �1�.,950.16. The City Attorney reported That the City 1-�ad not yet obtaineti from
Mr. Salls a proper easement throu�h property outside the City to connect the
sanitary sewer lines in Salls Subdivision Units l, 2 and 3 with the l�.nes in Sirmons
Hei�hts. Cornmissioner Strang moved that the refunding contract with Mr. D. A,
Salls in the amount of �1�.,950.16 be approved and the proper officials l�e authorized
to execute it subject to Mr. Salls delivering the satisfactory easements for
sanitary sewer to the City Attorney. Motion was seconded hy Commissioner Bohannon
and carried unanimously.
The Mayor pointed out that these subdividers were able tc do something the
City could not do -- negotiate a contract -- that if the City were doing the work,
bi�s would have to be taken.
In regard to the old WSUN radio buildin; and cottage on city-owned property
at the west end of Courtney Campbell Causeway, the Czty T�fanager reported that the
property was in fair shape, that the tenant building could be put into condition
and rented if the Commission so desires; that ths old WSUN building itseli needs
repair, paintin�, sanding of the floor; that both buildings need termiting and
painting inside and out. He estimated the work could be done for �1,200.00 for
both or about "�p`600.00 ior ea.ch. The IKayor sugp;ested that action be deferred on
renting the cotta,e to give the Commissioners time to consider the matter. The
IKanager commented that he and the City EngineQr were of the opini�n that the part
of the property the tenant building is located on would be the best location for
the future disposal plant and the building would need to be moved at that time.

Corrunissioner Strang suggested selling the tenant building unless it was to
be used ior a custodian for the City property. The Manager stated that the Bay
View Civic Clnb had offered to paint �he large buildzng in return for permission
to use it for meetinos, etc. Commissioner Bohannon moved that a work order not
to exceed �600.00 be set up in acco:dance with the City Mar.�ger's recommendation
to put it in shape for the people of the community there to use it, Motion was
seconded by Commissioner Strang �nd carried unanimously.
Gornmissione.r Strang ,�uggested that he thought it would be a good idea for
the Gity Manager to look into the mattpr of requiring some of the City ernployees
who are not in uniform, such as the Building Department inspect�rs and Gas and
�'J�ter Department employees, whose duties requir� them to go out and meet the
public to carry some sort of identification card with a picture on it.
There bein� no further business to c ome hefore the Commission, the meeting
