Mayor Herbert M. B~~n and Clearwater City Commission Clearwater Florida Skycrest, Inc. 411 S. Nimbus Ave. Clearwater, Fla. January 30, 1956 Gentlemen: We have been informed that the State Road Department and the County of Pinellas, intend to drain both ~he north and south sides of Drew Street., fr~~ Belcher Road on the east, onto the area contiguous to Lake Starcrest. Any overw ~low ~rom this area would have to drain into Lake Starcrest. Deep ditches are now being dug on both sides of Dre\Jl Street from Belcher Road to within four hundred feet of ~he present City of Clearwater line on the west, and a large culvert is t.o be installed under Drew Street from the north side of same to the south side, which will drain all water ~rom the north as well as t.he south side of Drew Street from belcher Road on the east onto the area adjoining Lake Starerest on its east line, which adjoins t.he west line of the area onto which all of this water is being drained. All of this water, which will include some land drainage as well as natural street drainage due to the dep+,h of ~,he ditches, will ~hen ~low t',hrough the entire drainage system of Skycrest, which has already been established, and which drains into Skybrook on the west. This will place an unnecessarily great burden on the Skycrest area as a subdivision and its drainage system, as it will then drain Drew Street from the west and from Belcher Road on ~he east, on both sides of the street. If this great burden of drainage is to be permi~~ed, and the Skycrest area forced to receive the drainage of so much land and streets beyond it.s boundaries, we respectfully request that you de~ermine ~hat pipe or ade~uate size, and adequate in all other respects, be installed and covered, in the drain lines established and areas connected thereto, through which this drainage is to be accomplished, at no cost to the property owners of Skycrest. Our Company feels ~hat ~he burden of having to accept all of this added drainage from o~her areas, if ~his is necessary, is more than enough, and having to pay any of the cost of same would violate the rights of every property owner in this a rea.

CI'PY COMMISS?ON I�LETING January 30, 1956 Skycrest, Inc. 4i1 S. Nimbus Ave. Clearwater, Fla. January 30, 1q56 Hon, Mayor Herbert M. Brown and Clearwater City Commission Clearwater Florida Gentlemen . We have been informed that the 5tate Road Degax��tment and T,he Count� of Pinellas, intend to drain both the north and south sides of Drew S�reet;, fr��n Belcher Road on the east, onto the area contiguous to Lake Starcrest. Any cver- ilow frorn this area would have to drain into Lake Starcrest. Deep ditches are now being flug on both sides of Drew Street from Selch�er Road to �i�hin four hundred feet of the present City of Clearwater line on the west, and a lar ge culvert is to be instal led under Drew Straet from the north side of same to the south side, which will d.rain all watex from the nor�h as well as the south side of Drew Stree� from �slcher Road on the east onto the area adjoining Lake Starcrest on its east line, which adjoins the west line of the area onto which all of this water is being drained. All of this water, which will include some land drainage as well as natural street drair_age due to the dep+.h of ':he di�ches, will then flow through the entire drain�.ge svstem of Skycrest, which has already been estaUlished, and which drains into Skybrook on the west. This w ill pTace an unnecessaril;� great burden on the Skycrest area as a subdivision and its drainaga system, as it will then drain Drew Street from the west and from Belcher R�zd on *.he east, on both sides of the street. If this great burden of drainage is to be permitted, and the Skycrest area forced to receive the drai.nage of so much land and streets beyond its boundaries, we respectf'u11y req�st that yeu determine ;hat pipe of adequate size, and adeGuate in a11 other res�ects, be installed and covered, in +he drain li;-xes establishsd and areas connected +hereto, through whieh this drainage is to be accomplished, at no cost to the property owners of Skycrest. Our Compa�y feels +hat +he burden of having to accept all of this added drainage from o+her areas, if this is necessary, i� more than encugh, and having to pay any of the cost of s ame wauld violate the righ�s oi every �roperty owner in this area.
