CITY COMMISSION MEETING
November 26, 1956
The City Attorney reported that he has been attempting to clear the title to the
piece of City-owned property which the Commission has indicated intention to deed to
the State Road Department as a location for a district office. He read a letter to
Mr. Billie B. Bush, Tampa attorney, which explained that on May 25, 1927, Mrs.
Pickett T. Gilmore, Joined by her husband, Paul Gilmore, deeded to the City a tract
o~ land of' approxlmately 1.06 acres with the restriction that it was deeded to the
City for parle purposes only. He stated 1n the letter that the property located on
the north Bide of Gulf to Bay Boulevard at the west end of Courtney Campbell Causeway
''las not sui table f'or use as a park because of its small s1 ze and its proximity to the
Causeway. The records indicate that Mrs. Gilmore'S heirs were Mrs. Velma Capehart,
Mrs. Ivon S. Sellers (now Mrs. John Sellers) and 1"<1r. Frank Howell. The City Attorney
reported he had received a quit claim deed from Mrs. John Sellers to the property with
a statement for $25.00 for Mrs. Sellers and $25.00 for her attorney, Mr. Bush. He
said he had also received a quit claim deed from Mrs. Velma Capehart but has not
received one from Mr. Frank Howell yet. He recommended that the $50.00 be appro-
priated for this purpose. Conunissioner Strang moved that $25.00 be appropriated for
Mrs. John Sellers in return for the quit claim deed to certain property owned by the
Ctty at the west end o~ Courtney Campbell Cauoeway and also that $25.00 be paid to

The City Attorney stated that the request from Mr. Myron Koch to permit the
Church of the Nazarene to erect a church building on Block B, Druid Groves Subdivision.
It was his recommendation sJnce this was an R-l zone that Mr. Koch be requested to
malce app11catlon to the Zoning Board under the hardship provisions of the Zoning
Ordinance and that the matter then be advertised for a Public Hearing. By consent, the
City Attorney was instructed to inform Mr. Koch as to the procedure to be followed.
Commissioner Strang reported that the City Commission had a joint meeting with
the Planning Board on November 21st with Mr. Al Rogero, State Road Board member,
present. He said Mr. Rogero had reported that the bridge for the west end of
Memorial Causeway would be included in the State Road Department budget for '57-'58
and would be approved for construction some time after July, 1957, but regarding a
new bridge at the east end of the Causeway the Road Board is hesitant to do anything
because it feels a traffic survey of this area is needed to know how to handle the
eastbound traffic from the Causeway. Mr. Rogero suggested it might be possible to
extend Drew Street toward the Causeway and construct a bascule bridge for westbound
traffic on the Causeway and use the present east drawbridge for eastbound traffic.
Mr. 1\1 Rogero explained that the State will join the County and the municipali-
ties in this area in having a traffic survey made by the State paying 50%, the County
25% and the municipalities to split up the remaining 25%. Commissioner Strang
recommended that a meeting be called of the Mayors and Commissioners of Largo,
Dunedin, Clearwater, Belleair and Safety Harbor to reach an agreement on sponsoring
the survey and then try to get other municipalities in the County to participate as
it was estimated that the total cost for this area would be $30,000.00 and for the
whole County would be $50,000.00. Mr. Rogero suggested that the cities request
Mr. L. Hester, County Engineer, to initiate the request to the State Road Department.
Commdssioner Strang moved that the r~nager be authorized to set up a meeting with
these other communities as soon as possible. Motion was seconded by Commissioner
Insco and carried unanimously.
Commissioner Strang reported that a slmplified plan had been developed for the
cloverleaf traffic pattern planned for the intersection of Route 19 and Gulf to Bay
Boulevard which would tal~e only 12 or 13 acres of right of way and would cut down
the cost of acquiring the property for the right of way. He said Mr. Rogero had
offered to have the appraisal of the needed property made by the State Road
Department appraisers wh1 eh ''lould save approximately $3,000.00.

Mr. Arthur Kruse;t Planning Board Chairman, spol{e on changing the setbacks on
streets which will eventually be widened under the MR-l plan. By consent, the City
Attorney was requested to find out if there was any way to change setbacks in the
City except through a zoning referendum.
Mr. vim. L. Ballinger, sidel"alk artist, asked permission to mal..e pictures or
sketches for sale operating from public property on the south side of the SeaOrarna.
It was the City Attorney's opinion that the City could not rent out any part of a
sidewalk or drive for any purpose.
The Manager reported receiving a memo from Mr. 1\1 Vasconi, architect, that he
was rea~y to proceed with the bandshell but that before the bids are let that test
borings or the ground are needed and it will be necessary to move the overfill at
a cost of $800.00. The Engineer stated grass should be planted on the terraces on
the side of the hill to hold the fill. Commissioner Strang moved that $800.00 be
appropriated to take the borings and moving the fill for the bandshell from the
Escro,,, Fund and that the Engineer be authorized to ask for b~ ds as soon as possible.
Motion was seconded by Commissioner Insco and carried unanimOUSly.

CITY COMB2ISSIQN NE�.`TING
November 26, 1g56
The City Attorney reportec� that he has been attEmptin� to c].ear the title to tlle
piece of City-owned property which the Commission has indicated intention to deed to
the State Road Department as a lacation for a district office. He read a letter to
Mr. Eillie B. Bush, Tampa attorney, which explained that on May 25, 1927, Mrs.
Picicett T. Gilmore, joined by her husband, Paul Gilmore, deeded to the City a tract
of land of approximately 1.06 acres with the restriction that it was deeded to the
City for park purposes only. He stated in the letter that the property located on
the north side nf Gulf to Bay Boulevard at the west end of Caurtney Campbel? Causeway
ivas not suitaole for use as a parlt because of` �.ts sma11 size and its proximity to the
Causeway. The records indicate that Mrs. Gilmore's heirs were Mrs. Velma Capehart,
Ntrs. Ivon S. Sellers (noi,r Mrs. John Sellers) and Mr. Franlc Howell. The City Attorney
reported he had received a quit claim deed f'rom Ms�s. John Sellers to the property with
a statement for �25.00 for Mrs. Sellers and $25.00 for her attorney, Mr. Bush, He
said he had also received a quit claim deed from Mrs. V�lma Capehait but has not
received one from Mr. Fraril: Howell yet. He recommended that the $50.00 be appro-
priated for this purpose, Commissioner Strang moved that �25.00 be appropriated for
Mrs. John Sellers in return for the quit claim deed to certain property owned by the
City at the west end of Courtney Campbell Causeway and also that �25.00 b� paid �o
ner attorney, Mr. Billie B. Bush, for his services. Motion was seconded by
Cormnissioner Bohannon and carried unanimously.
The Ci-Ey Attorney stated that the request from Mr, Myron Koch to permit the
Ghurch of the Nazarene to erect a cnurch building on Bl:ock B, Druid Groves Subdi;risian,
It was his recommer_dation since this was an R-1 zone that Mr. Koch be requested to
malce application to the Zoning Board under the hardsnip provisions of the Zoning
O�dinance and that the matter then be advertised for a Public Iiearing. By consent, the
City Att�rney was instructed to inform Mr. Koch as to the procedure to be followed.
Commiss3oner Strang reported that the City Commission had a joint meeting Nrith
the Planning Baard on November 21st with Mr. A1 Rogero, State Road Board member,
present. He said Mr. Rogero had reported that tne bridge for the tivest end of
Memorial Gauseti+ray would be included in the State Road Department budget for 'S7-�58
and would Ue approved for construetiu�i some time after Tuly, 1957, but regarding a
new brid;e at the east en� of the Cau�eway the Road Board is hesitant to do anything
because it feeis a traffic survey of this area is needed ta know how to handle tne
eastibound traffic from the Causeway. Mr. Rogero suggested it might be possible to
extend Drew Street toward the Caus�way and construct a bascule bridge for westbound
traffic on the Causeway and use the present east drawbrid�e for eastbound traffic.
Mr. �l Rogero explained that the State will join the County and the municipali-
ties in this area in having a traffic survey made by the State paying 50�, the Gounty
25o and the municipalities to split up the remaining 25�. Commissioner Strang.
reeommended that a meeting be called o.. the Mayors and Commissioners of Lar�o,
Dunedin, Cleartaater, Belleair and Safety Harbor ta reach an agreement on sponsoring
the survey and then try to get other munici�alities in the Coanty to partic3pate as
it was es�imated that the total cost for this area would be $30,000.00 and for the
whole Cnunty would be $50,000.00, Mr. Rogero suggested that the cities request
Mr. L. Hester, County Engineer, to initiate the request to the State Road Department,
Commissioner Strang moved that the Manager be authorized to set up a meeting with
these other communi�ies as soon as possible. Motion was seconded by Commiss�oner
Insco and carried unanimously.
Commissioner Strang reported that a simplified plan had been developed for the
cloverleaF traffic pa�tern planned for the intersection of Route 19 and Gulf to Bay
Boulevard which would take only 12 or 13 a�res of right of way and would cut down
the cost af acquiring the property for the right of way. He said Mr. Rogero had
offered to have the appr.aisal of the needed property made by the State Road
Department appraisers which would save approximately $3,000.00.
Mr. Arthur Kruse, Planning Board Chairman, spoke on changing the setbacics on
streets tahich will eventually be tvidened under the MR-1 plan. By consent, the City
�ttorney was requested to find out if there was any way to change setbacics in the
City exeept through a zoning referendum.
Mr. 4fm. L. Ballinger, sidewalk artisL, asked permission to make pietures or
sketch�s for sale operating from public property on the south side of the SeaOrama.
I� vlas the City Attorne�'s opinion that the City could not rent out any part of a
sidevralk or drive i'or any purpose.
The Manager reported receiving a memo from Mr. Al Vaseon:;., archztect, that he
tvas rea�y to proceed with the bandshel]_ but that bet'ore the i�ids are let that test
borin�s of the ground are needed and it vrill be necessary to move the overf3.11 at
a cost of .``p800.00. The Engineer stated grass should be planted on the terraces on
the side oi the hi11 to hold the fill. Commissioner Strang moved that $800.00 be
appropriated to take the borings and mo�ring the fill for the bandshell from tYie
Eserow Fund and that the Engineer be authorized to ask for b�?ds as soon as possible.
Motion was seconded by Commissioner Insco and carried unanimousl;�.
