Member Foote questioned the purpose and contribution of this Committee. Members stated that they
recalled an infonnation sheet attached to the application. It was again discussed if this Committee would
be in a better position to be part of Planning and Development Services, rather than Parks and
Recreation, so that they would be involved with beautification of projects at the beginning. Mr. Dunbar
suggested that someone from Planning and Development Services may be able to attend these meetings
to i~form members of~cw projects. He will speak to Ralph Stone and see if this will be possible.
. Mr. Dunbar infonllcd members that Parks and Recreation has taken over the administration of the
Harborview Center.
Mr. Dunbar also informed members that Parks and Recreation is the lead on the Public/Private
Partnership. The first portion being addressed is the soft drink vendors. The three vendors that have
spoken with the City are Coke, Pepsi and Gatorade. This wm be a good revenue sources for various
items including the Fire Department and possibly new co01fo11 statiQns Qn the beach. The vendors will
be making their proposals to the City on January II ~ 200 I.
Member Foote brought up the issue of bus stop shelters in Dunedin that have advertisements Qn them.
She wanted to know if Clearwater decided to do the same type of advertisement what department would
have to approve it. Mr. Dunbar advised that it would have to be approved through Planning and
Development Services.
Member Foote infonned Mr. Dunbar that the ceiling in the Harborview Center nceded repair. She also

that removal is being looked into at this time., It is being researched to see what authority approved that
sign.
Chair Stuart left the meeting at 9:00 a.m., which created a lack oCa quorum. The following items were
discussed briefly:
Member Hammac pointed out thnt there is still n high level of construction and development and that we
,,-_,I . do not have the water to accommodate new residents. This lack of water also hinders beautification.
