The City Manager reported on his meeting with the cabinet aides in
Tallahassee and stated the Cabinet would be meeting Tuesday morning,
January 5, 1982, to make a deoision. A copy of the agenda memo prepared by
the Department of Natural Resources was distributed. The D.N.R. legal
staff's opinion stated that the licensing of the pier, onoe completed, to a
private concern by the applicant would activate the reverter clause
prescribed in Chapter 11050. However, consideration should be given to the
net positive effect on the overall downtown development of the City of
Clearwater. The agenda memo recommends approval of a waiver of the
reverter clause to that specific area of SUbmerged lands on which the pier
facility will be constructed and further recommends that upon satisfaction
of the cost of construction of the pier facility, the applicant shall
remit, as consideration for this waiver, the fee of 25-percent of the net
proceeds it receives for any use of the pier by any private concern. This
is new policy being set by the State for rental of bay-bottom land.
Consensus of the Commission was to prepare a statement opposing the
25-percent fee.,
The City Manager reported suit had been filed relating to the eviction
of Clearwater Aircraft, Inc. He suggested the report from Frank Logan,
Attorney, re: regUlation of tax-exempt organizations be discussed at the
January 18, 1982, work session.
In response to Commissioner Kelly's request re starting date for
Howard Johnson's renovation work, the City Manager reported one issue has.
still to be resolved and it may come back to the Commission for a
decision.
Commissioner Kelly discussed an editorial by WTAN relating to
Narconon, an anti-drug program sponsored by the Church of Scientology. The
Pine lIas County School System is required by law to provide anti-drug
programs. Narconon is one of those programs licensed and approved by the
State of Florida. However, there is a constitutional mandate for
separation of Churoh and State and if the Church of ScientOlogy is legally
a church, Narconon would be ineligible for participation in a public school
drug program. She requested the City Manager address a letter on behalf of
the City Commission to the Superintendent of SchOOlS, Dr. Scott Rose, and
members of the Pine lIas County School Board, opposing the use of the
Narconon program.
The Mayor stated he had requested a list of the advantages of
annexation for distribution to residents of the enclave areas.
Commissioner Garvey requested the Commission consider a loan of
approximately $~,ooo for the two instructors to teach in Nagano, Japan.
The Sister City Committee will repay the loan through fund-raising
activities. No action was taken at this time.
Meeting adjourned at 9:50 a.m.
