George Routh, 1446 Court St'J applicant's representative, stated the adjoining restaurant is leased from
Mr. Dervish, and that Mr. Kamberos owns the license and the bar/package store. Currently a contract
to sell the business is pending to Mr. Gregory Musick. A Florida Corporation has been formed by the
name of Clearwater Beach Bar and Grill and upon approval the stock and license will be transferred to
Mr. Musick. This license is a "grandfathered" situation and negotiating the sale and obtaining conditional
use approval must be done quickly to prevent the expiration of the grandfather time limit. He stated that
the problems with this business in the past has been due to poor management. He added this is the best
use for the land. In regard to a 12:00 midnight closing Mr. Routh felt this is unacceptable as the
difference between 12:00 midnight and 2:00 a.m. would not have an unfavorable impact on public heallh
or safety. Mr. Routh stated Mr. Musick is present to explain how the business wilt be run.
"
Gregory Mu..;ick, 3957 Wcllington Parkway, Palm Harbor, proposed purchaser of the business, stated
that he does not plan to change the bar itself, but will change the way it is run. He stated it will be
cleaned up and the interior improved. Mr. Musick stated management will make this business a positive
addition to the community. He added he has hired a well qualifledJ experienced manager and the bar will
be very strictly run.
In response to questions by the BoardJ Me. Musick slated a midnight dosing would be a hardship, as
there are several other bars in the area that close at 2:00 a.m. He added that there is no entertainment
planned in the bar initiallYJ however, in the restaurant they may have a single person playing folk music
or island type music. Mr. Musick stated it is undecided at this time but felt the attire for servers in the
restaurant will be shortS with a polo type shirts with the business name, and in the bar they will wear
beach type shorts and T-shirts with the logo; and the servers will be open to both males and females.
William Guarino, 118 Huntington Drive, Largo, proposed manager of the business. stated the problems
with the business in the !'last have been due to not having a hands-on manager. They will have an in-
house manager and patrons will not be served past the point of intoxication. Mr. Guarino stated the bar
will be managed with an "iron fist" and they will abide by all laws.
In support, the following persons appeared and expressed concerns including the following:
Don Winner, 395 Mandalay Avc'J stated he has known Mr. Musick for a long time and felt he is a
reputable business man and is of good character. Mr. Winner stated that bars do not cause problems,
the operators do. He felt that a midnight closing is not appropriate and the State requirements are
sufficient. He felt Mr. Musick should be pelmitted to run the establishment under these guidelines: and
if he does not. the City cou\d dose it down.
Michael Houllis~ 452 Mandalay Ave., owner of the Island House Restaurant. stated he also f~!t that the
problems with this bar in the past was due to poor management and that under propel: mana~emenl this
business could be an asset to the beach. ; ~e added a well run beach b~r is needed ill the area and that
a midnight closing would be unreasonable ;u' ;>eople who get off wo& late need a place 10 !;O and for
people who are on vacation a midnight c1osinl; is too early.
In response to qhcstions by the Board, Mr. Houllis stated his business closes usually retween 12:00 and
1 :30 a.m. ....
In oPPOSitiOD, John PimenidL<>J 47 Papaya St., presented a petition with 16 signatures of surrounding
property owners in opposition to the Beach Bar being allowed to reopen. Mr. Pimenidis stated there are
over 25 bars and restaurants already selling alc~holic beverages in the area. There were many problems
with the Beach Bar in the past including intoxicated people sleeping on their property and being outside
after the bar closed until 3:00 or 4:00 a. m.. and parking on the streets. If the bar is open after midnight
it will not attract tourists, only attract waitresses. cooks and dishwashers. If the Board approves the
request the bar should be required to close at midnight.

Also in support. the following persons appeared and expressed concern.'; including the following:
Ken Blaine. 651 Whcthersfie1d Dr.. Dunedin, stated he has personally know Mr. Musick for 14 years
and that he felt he is capable of professionally operating the business. He stated he works late and would
like the Beach Bar to go to at the end of the day without having to leave the beach.
Barton Grigg. 13862 Turn LancJ stated he owned the store nex.t door to the Beach Bar from 1987-89J
and, even though it was poorly run, the bar helped his store be successful because it brought poople to
the area. He noted that since the bar has been closed, the store is not doing well. Mr. Grigg stated he
felt a midnight closing is unfair because poople will go to the Holiday Inn if they want a drink rather than
to a local business such as the Beach Bar. Mr. Grigg added he knows Mr. Musick and felt he will run
the business well.
In rebuttal. John Pimenidis stated that none of the people who spoke in support live on Clearwater Beach
and are not affected by the problems caused by this bar. He stated there are already too many bars and
restaurants that serve alcohol in this area.
In rebuttal, Mr. Routh stated the biggest plus heard today is that Mr. Musick is well know to be of good
character and a good businessman and will run a favorable establishment.
In response to questions by the BoardJ Mr. Musick stated that through good management, with himself
and the manager on premises, customers will be watched closely for intoxication so that there will not
be problems when they leave. Mr. Musick stated he will be a good, responsible neighbor.
Discussion ensued with the Board members expressing concerns including the following: a trial period
of a 2:00 a.m. closing, limiting package sales to 12:00 midnight. and the types of entertainment.
Motion was made by Mr. Hamilton, and seconded by Mr. Mazur, to approve the above request subject
to the following conditions: 1) The requisite occupational license shall be obtained within 6 months from
the date of this public hearing; and 2) No package sales permitted after 12:00 midnight. Motion carried
5 to 1, with Ms. Nixon voting "nay" because she felt there should be a 1 to Ilh year trial period for a
2:00 a.m. closing.

Mr. Shuford gave the background of the case and submitted, in writing, the staff recommendation, and
noted that 2 letters of objection had been received. ..
Daryl Seaton. 445 Harnden Dr., applicant. presented a letter of support from the Beach House Hotel and
stated this request is to add an amenity for the guests of rhe hotel. He felt this will create a "resort"
atmosphere in a quiet manner that would not have negative impact on the neighbors. He added the "Tiki
Hut" will be locatoo on the dock and storage will be under the building and will not take up any parking
spaces.
Discussion ensued regarding the exact location of the Tiki Hut.

that the service will be marketed to guests only hut wilt rent to anyone who may walk up and request it.

boat slips as a staging area which will allow for adequate parking.
)
No persons appeared in support of the above request.
In oppositionJ Doris Goldman, 450 So. Gulfvicw Blvd. #1204. stated she represents the residents of 440
West Condo Association and that they object only to the bicycles. She felt there is no place for people
to ride safely and that riding on the roadway is too dangerous and would further complicate the traffic
situation. She noted that a congestion of bicycles would be a hazard for pedestrians.
In rebuttal, Mr. SeaLon stated the car and bicycle traffic at the intersections is not the problem, rather the
pedestrians. He felt lights for crossing are needed.
In response to. questions by the BoardJ Mr. Seaton stated full safety gear for rental equipment will be
provided and required.
Discussion ensued with the Board members expressing concerns including the following: the location
and there being no signs or structures visible from the street.
