Commissioner Art Deegan was also recognized at this point.
Chairman now addressed Item #3 on the agenda. Jim Polatty
stated that an NAC recommendation to the City Commission to
accept the proposed new Housing Manual is necessary. Further,
the housing program is on hold; we are awaiting a letter from
HOD re their monitoring in February. In the meantime. the policy
manual has been re-written. Steve Watry gave. a brief
presentation of the highlights of the new Manual. Discussion
followed. Ralph Linn inquired whether it would be beneficial to
have contractors post a bond. Steve replied that a bond would
be against the best interest of small and/or minority owned
businesses. The result would be reduction in the amount of
improvement to the home.
In response to inquiry by Milly Joplin concerning previous
Motions I Jim Polatty advised that:
a.) referring to Hurd, we are waiting on decision of
State Attorney's office.
b.) referring to Shuman (Citro). State Attorney has
decided not to prosecute.
Steve continued, and outlined the procedures for dismissing a
contractor from the list. He spoke about the Self-Help program.
explaining that the homeowner will be required to sign an
agreement as to the date of expected completion; and that funds
will be withheld in the event a contractor must finish instead.
Milly inquired about shutters: that we should address hurricane
problems now. Steve advised that at the present time, hurricane
shutters would be considered GPI.
Jim requested, and received. approval of the Committee to call
a Special Meeting (before the end of the month) prior to the
manual's going b~fore the city Commission.
Discussion about scheduling a tour for the September meeting -
date to be 9/17-18, locations to be announced. The Committee
agreed that they should view the sites of the CDBG applicants.
NEW BUSINESS:
a.) Jim explained the SHIP program, and stated that it would go
to City Commission this month. He further stated that Staff
would recommend that three NAC members be appointed to that
board.

b.l Milly stated there should be a traffic light at~evu}~and
Ft. Harrison, as there are a number of accidents there. She
also is concerned that there is no sign for Pinellas Trail, that
tells where it picks up (it just seems to end there). Also at
the South end of Searstown (Auto Dept area) I a number of
homeless are gathering. There are a number of used cars signed
uFor Sale", and several large trucks park there overnight.

c.) Ralph informed the committee that there is a truck usually
parked where pinellas Trail crosses Fairmont. The truck, which
has no stickers, has now been moved beside the first house on
right going SE on Fairmont. It has a broken windshield and one
tire is off; it certainly appears to be disabled.
d.) Cherry stated that a brighter light is needed at the Trail
and Harbor Drive; and that the sidewalk should go all the way
down to the Trail.
e.' Motion to adjourn at 9:35 P.M. by Ralph, second by Milly;
unanimously accepted.
After the meeting concluded, Torn Brooks requested that an updated list

of this)
