only been received two days before and that he had informed Mr.

.Galloway that a Zoning Committee dcclsion would not be requested
at this time. He related to the Board information received in a
phone call to him from .Mr. Richardson (of St. Petersburg) that some
one is seeking this corner property for a service station site.
He advised further that Mr. Richardson was not aware that Mr.
Bonner had not submitted a co-application from the owner of property
to the east of the above Lot. 16. He stated that the application
.~
as pr~sently referred to the Zoning Committee was not actually
complete, and that Mr. Galloway thought it would be well for the
Board to discuss the request. Mr. Wolle suggested that in lieu
. of .the lack of full ap'plication covering all property reque~.ting
rezoning that the matter be deferred. Mr. Reade moved that all
consideration of the ~bove zoning reguest be deferred until full
information is received. His motion, seconded bv Mr. Mvlander.
was P9ssed unanimously.

r, The chnirmlln introduced Messrs. Morris Prosser nnd Everett
Hougcn who. hod rcquastcd to appear before the board to discuss
the locrition of a site for a new Post Office facility on
Clearwater Boach\ (Letter to Board June 27, 1963).
Mr. Hougen described the property rtS Lots 8, 7, 6, Block 1,
Clearwater Ileach Sub., N.W. Corner of Somerset St. and
Mandalay Ave. Plot Plan was submitted for study.
Although request Was for "B" zoning, after some discussion
it was agreed that tlp" zoning was more appropriate. The
Planner explained the uses and requirements of this zone.
Setbacks, access drives and off street parking area wer~
discussed in relation to building area and lot dimensions.
In accordance to retail off street parking requirements, the
Planner reported that 15 spaces would be needed. He further
stressed that maneuver space in such parking area be arranged
as to not cause congestion in front of the building and also
permit proper entrance to Mandalay AV0.
In discussion the following points were noted:
1. Zoning I1pl~ would permit Post Office use. Adjoining
ownerships involved no apparant objections.
2. Site location appeared desirable from an access and
service point of view.
3. Mandalay ^ve. had adequate right-of-way to provide
an ease in the flow of traffic at this particular location.
4. Ownership would be retained by ~r. Prosser.
5. Provided proper zoning be obtained, preliminary committmcnt
would be made of the property for long term lease to the U. S.
Government.
'wJ
Because of necessity for early action on an option for the real
estate, Board members at this time generally agreed that the site
was perhaps suitabl~ for a Post Office facility and
indicated favorable respons<:l to recommend np" zoning for the
property when and if formal action is requcst2d. However, they
declared that a qualified approval did not necessarily mean that
other sites would not be equally acceptable for this facility even
to the extent of the utilization of an araa tn the Marina.

QHAIRMAN'S ITEMS:

Pngc 1J4
For record of action. Mr. Kruse read to Board mambers n memo he h~d
submitted to the City Manager regarding the "Town House" propo!=;:l:
and the Board reconwendation.
.
PLANNER'S ITEMS:
a. Mr. Wolle reported that he was investigating the possibi 1L:')-
of setbacks being established along specific streets .ar'.d across
corners at specific intersections. Such setbacks would be effectiv".!
regardless of zone classifications and would be in the interest of
safe access and crossings.
I b. Chairman Kruse reported that I\Sst. City Attorney Kennedy
had drawn up a draft of a proposed zoning ordinacc for Board review. .
He further advised that the City Manager had informed him that they
would like to have some definite recommendations as it was planned
for the City Commission to hold its first public hearing not earlier
than the. 1st. .of AUguHt. He felt that it would be difficult for
'members to get a real comprehension of the content just from an
"-"", oral reading of the -paragraphs. The Planner surnmarize.d for the Board
content of the ordinance draft (as revised by the City Attorney
June 27) and offered comment on the various paragraphs.
After some discussion, it was decided that Members would be maile~
copies of t~e latest dr~ft of the ordinance for ~tudv and tm t t!"t~
piscussion wo~ld be continued at the nGxt re2ular m~eting.
The meeting was adjourned at 5:00 P.M.
