Concerned was expressed hy the Committee about the lack of subsidized housing for young singles. A referral was made to both the Clearwater Housing Authority and to the Community Services Foundation, for possible additional information. However, it was obvious from the discussion of the Committee that, while elderly housing and housing for families has received some emphasis in recent years, affordable housing for singles, i.e., subsidized housing, does not appear as a practical matter, to be available to young singles. This was felt to be a major gap in the housing resources in the community. 6. A question was raised about the lack of attention to controlling the hyacinths on Lake Belleview. This issue has regularly been raised by the Committee. There was concern that if the water hyacinths do not receive more attention, that Lake Belleview will become choked and the bottom of Lake filled with deteriorated plant material. There was some possible concern also expressed about other City lakes in a similar regard. 7. Comment was made that for next year CnBG Funding, that attention still needs to be paid to providing a swimming pool, similar to the Ross Norton Park pool, in the East Clearwater area of Wood Valley and Condon Garden. 8. Jim Sheeler reported that the dredging on Stevenson's Creek west of Betty Lane would be a much larger project than the dredging that already has been accomplished to the east of Betty Lane and Stevenson's Creek. The Committee reaffirmed its sense of priorities that drainage, roadways and sidewalks would receive first priority among projects funded through CDBG. 9. Question was raised as whether the minutes of Neighborhood Advisory Committee were forwarded to the City Commission. This will be investigated. 10. A problem was noted about stray dogs running loose in some City parks. Possibly the City will be involved to the extent of additional police enforcement. 11. The problem with a dim street light at Ewing and Dumpsey, immediately to the north of Lake Belleview, has been successfully resolved after the involvement of the City, by Florida Power.

Concern was expressed about plant material growing along the roadway on Myrtle Avenue just south of Chestnut, which may block the vision of traffic. Possibly there is a Traffic Engineering issue involved. 13. The Question was raised about a sub-drain along Dovewood Street in Wood Valley, where the sidewalk is raised. Reference was made to Public Services Division of the Public Works Department. 14. There was also a sewer cover missing in the Brigadoon Apartment Complex in the Woodvalley area, which will also be called to the attention of Public Services Division.
