REVIEW Of ALEXANDER-MOSKOWITZ REPORT - (a) General Comment
tDr~om.Il\eiit oy-Sect~io-ns~{ c) COl7lmi t:'tee - Report - Conclus ions
The Planner recaJled the circumstances as to Mr. Kruse's conversa-
tion with the City Manager and the Mayor in which approval was indicated
for the Board to review the report and make expression on it~ He also
"discussed br~~~ly some actions already takeri by the rlan~ger toward i~-
plementing some of the proposals contained in the ~eport.
. .
The Board reviewed and discussed at length this consultant report
prepared by 'Alexander and Noskowi tz, Ine. , titled, "Planning for Do~'m-
to'Vm CIearHater, Part 1 - The Concept Plan If .
,...-.,
,
"
'-~
In this process, the Vice Chairman read and presented written state-
ment of corr~ent submitted by ~hairman Kruse for Board consideration. The
Board VIas generally in agreement 'Ilith the ideas offered in this COTr!.'r;ent.
; ,
In the above discu~sion some points of analysis emphasized Here that:
Subject report, together with ~eports previously made by the Build
A~erica Better Committee of the Hational Association of Real
Estate Beards, the School of Architecture of the University cf
Florida, and Harland BartholomeH and Associates, furnished suffi-
ci~nt infor~aticn of a backBround .nature. The A S ~1 report re-
peated much information: already known ~c the Board.
The "Economic and !"!arKet ing" sect ion or the repo!'t: COV8'!'E',C~ the
subj ect adequat ely; so~e portions of the repol't shm!o:;;.: a le,ck of
complete information and knc"t11edgc of curr'ent conditions.
It would have been desirable if the downtown are~ cf s~ud1'~a~
been extend,-,!d to t1yrtle {we. en the cast.
".,...,.)
Although it was recognized th3t an anticipated s~cond ?ha~c re~ort
to follow was to 6e mere of an in-d~p~h study, the Ccnc€;t ?15n
part of the report was some~hat defici~nt in any visionary ap-
proach or concrete recor.':1lt:!ndr3'tion:.:;.. ~,~t'. ~~orris sur.;!~~.r:;t<:'r. th,~'f~ ~"]: i.:::

COfltd,daro.hlc di.'3cunsion revolved a:round a po~ni bIe oi to for it con...
t"" vcntion center' (or combination convention-cultural ccntt!r), which it t<1as
felt would not necessarily have to be located on the Bay front. Generally
the Board concluded that the City did not need a large facility such ~5
the Bayfront Center in St. Petersburg or the Curti~-Dixon Center in
/"":""""0....1
Tampa, but that a center with a seating capacity of from 1000 to 2000 or
2500 would be a valuable asset to the downtown.

The Board reviewed copies of a proposed Zoning Ordinance amendment
-"""{'
(distributed at the previous meeting) to allow for extension of duration
of stay from 30 days to periods up to 120 days under certain provisions.
There was some discussion as to Hhether utilities required to be availa-
hIe at each space should be specified. However, satisfaction was ex-
pressed with the text as written after opinion offered by J1r. Rettig that
the requirement for utilities to be approved by the City Engineer pro-
vided ad~quate control.

It was Board opinion that any addod provision for limited b~siness scr-
,
vices should be ,in a simple form. 'rhe BOt\rd favored a sucgestion by
Hr. Butler to eliminate the phrase, "each less than 6-::l'tOt'1" in tho, 3rd
paragraph and a sueBcstion by Mr. Mylandcr to reduce the cxistine ~ercen-
tageformula of 40% of the grounrt floor area to a lower fieure and pro-
yide in a separate paragraph for a separate service center.
'l'he number'
