BEAUTIFICA TION COMMITTEE MINUTES
The City of Clearwater Beautification Committee meeting was called to
order by Chairman, Don Alexander, in the Commission ConIerence Room.
Third Floor of City Hall on Wednesday, July 8, 1970 at 2:00 P. M.
The Chairman opened the meeting by introducing our guest, Mrs. Vera
Ballard, formerly a member of the Coral Gables Beautification Committee.
-t .
The proposed beautification of Cleveland Street from Osceola Avenue to
Myrtle Avenue was then discussed, and the Chairman reported on a meeting
held on July 7th between the City Manager, Mr. Bud Parmer, and Mr. Lane
Marshall; Landscape Architect; Alan Smith, Superintendent of Parks; Mr.
Arthur Kruse. and the Chairman, at which time t~e details 01 the proposed
project were thoroughly analyzed. Mr. Marshall will develop a proposed
plan and cost estimates for consideration.
The Chairman announced the approval by the Tampa Bay Regional Planning
Council of a Street Tree Planting Program for the City, to be financed by
H. U.J? Federal funds under the '701' Planning Program. Mr. Marshall
will co"nduct this study and make recommendations in the near future.
The subject of naming an "official" tree for Clearwatcl' was discussed,
and the Chairman sta.ted his intention of requesting the Mayor and Commission
to defer a decision in the matter until the recommendations covering the "
Street Tree" Planting Program became available. Copies of the Chairman's
letter to the Mayor and Commission are being sent to all members of this
Committee.
Committee member Forrest Watson, Architect, then outlined his plans for
. conducting an "Entranceway to Clearwater" design contest. He will offer a
site plan and State, Road right of way criteria as guidelines for the contest,
which will be publicly announced in September. The purpose of the contest
is' primarily to seek imaginative ideas and suggestions which may lead to
: specific design of appropriate entranceway developments at several approaches
to the City. '. "
City Manager, M. R. Stierheim, then joined the meeting and discussed the
Capital Improvement Program, General Obligation Bond Issue, and the City-wide
Referendum to be held on July 2.8, 1970. He urged continuing effort to "get out
the vote. "
. He also expressed his views on the Street Tree Planting Progr",!-m and stated
that the Edgewater Drive filling project was proceeding as fast as possible.
.The poor attendance at recent Committee meetings was discussed, and the
Chairman indicated that steps would be taken to seek replacement of members
who had not been present at three consecutive meetings) without reasonable
excuses.
