SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION:
Approve conceptual plan for Phase II of Cleveland Street Streetscape, authorize staff to establish a new capital project 315/388-92275,
Downtown Streetscape Phase II in the amount of $4,028,925 by transferring $1,574,000 from CRA project 388-92269, Downtown
Streetscape, to the new capital project 388-92275, Downtown Streets cape - Phase II, transferring $636,000 from City project 315-
92269, Downtown Streetscape, recognizing $196,000 ofHUD grant proceeds, and transferring $1,622,925 from Central Insurance Fund
reserves (to be replaced by CRA funds as they become available over the next two to three fiscal years). (consent)
SUMMARY:
Creating a pedestrian-friendly downtown environment, coupled with significant entrance and directional signage is a key element of the
Downtown revitalization strategy detailed in the Clearwater Downtown Redevelopment Plan.
The city retained Bellomo-Herbert and Company, Landscape Architects in August 2002 to develop a Master Streetscape and
Wayfinding Program for Downtown (including the expanded CRA area). The first phase of the implementation of the plan was
completed in December 2007 with the Cleveland Street Streetscape from Osceola to Myrtle Avenues. The $10 million construction
project was funded from Penny for Pinellas, the CRA trust fund, a Florida Department of Transportation grant and utility funds. The
goals for the first phase of Cleveland Streetscape were accomplished: 1) enhance the pedestrian environment; 2) invite residents and
visitors to Downtown; and 3) encourage private development.
The next phase of the streetscape program is imperative to the continued success of increasing redevelopment opportunities in the
Downtown. With the development of the 1100 Cleveland Street building (The Strand), the development agreement with the Crum
Services building site (former IMR/CGI), and the availability of the Prospect Lake Redevelopment Site, Phase II of the Cleveland Street
Streetscape is a critical infrastructure project that will continue to encourage and facilitate the City and CRA's redevelopment goals.
The conceptual plan for Cleveland Street Phase II continues the look and feel of the first phase of the Cleveland Streetscape, but with a
less intense, and therefore less expensive, treatment. Streetscape features will include:
o Asphalt milling and resurfacing of the travel lanes and on-street parking spaces on both sides of the street
o New concrete curbing to create new medians/traffic separators in the middle of the roadway with new landscaping
o New wide sidewalks made of specialty concrete and pavers to improve and enhance the pedestrian space. Pavers will be limited
to the corners and mid-block; concrete will make up the sidewalk with a paver banding.
o New crosswalks at all intersections to improve the appearance and safety for pedestrians
o Amenities such as benches and trash cans will be included. The type of benches will be evaluated and only be located on the
corners.
o Landscaping will include the signature medjool palms on the corners and mid-block, with street trees (crape myrtles) in between.
o The existing overhead electrical line will be removed.
o The existing span-wire signals at M.L. King and Missouri will be replaced with decorative mast arm signals.
o The proposed streetlights in Phase II will be the same except they will have single heads. They will support banner arms and will
have electrical outlets for seasonal lighting, just like in Phase I (Making this change will reduce the monthly costs to Progress
Energy by as much $1,000).
o This project will also provide public art funding (up to 1 % of the construction costs).
Estimated Cost
The project is estimated to cost $4,028,925 inclusive of design and construction.
Estimated Funding
The City has received a $196,000 appropriation from the federal government to begin the design portion of this projecf(6~fi~~rrgd at
$306,477).
Item # 4

SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the collective bargaining agreement as ratified by IAFF Local 1158 for Fiscal Year 2007/08. (consent)
SUMMARY:
The most recent collective bargaining agreement between the City of Clearwater and IAFF Local 1158 expired on September 30,
2007. On September 18, 2008, the parties held an impasse hearing before City Council, the purpose of which was to determine solely
the amount of the general wage increase, if any, to be provided to members of the bargaining unit for the period from October 1, 2007
through September 30, 2008. The City Council, by a 4-1 vote, approved the provision of a one-time, lump sum bonus in an amount
equivalent to one-and-one-half percent of the respective employee's annual base rate of pay. The Union submitted the bargaining
agreement including the bonus provision to its membership who ratified the contract by a vote of 62 to 29 on October 9,2008. The total
cost associated with the implementation of this agreement will be $144,490. A first quarter budget amendment will reflect the
appropriation of $144,490 of General Fund Reserves to the Fire Department operating budget to cover this cost.
This is a One-year agreement with no changes to the contract except for the following provisions:
Article 9, Section 1, Wages and Compensation:
All bargaining unit employees who are currently in an active employment status as of the date of ratification of this Agreement by
the Union or the effective date by action of the City Council if the Agreement is not ratified shall be provided a one-time lump sum
gross bonus payment equivalent to one-and-one-halfpercent (1.5%) of the respective employee's annual base rate of pay, minus

SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION:
Accept funding totaling $75,811 and approve the corresponding agreement from Coordinated Child Care for funding of teen programs
and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent)
SUMMARY:
The City of Clearwater Parks and Recreation Department has been awarded funding totaling $75,811 for FY 08/09 from Coordinated
Child Care. Council approval is required for each year of the agreement.
Since the program began in 2000, JWB Children's Services Council of Pinellas County was the contract agency. This year, JWB is
granting all of the youth development, out of school time funding to Coordinated Child Care a non-profit, 501 c (3) agency. JWB has
decided to consolidate all of this type of program under one administrative service agency.
Clearwater Parks and Recreation "Charting a Course for Youth" program was developed to nurture teenagers at the Clearwater
neighborhoods in which teens need the most direction. The program leaders have developed a safe haven for community teens and pre-
teens ages 12-18; a space that they can call their own at Ross Norton Recreation Complex, and North Greenwood Recreation and
Aquatic Complex.
To maintain interest and to keep children active in the program, the actual program format, program specifics, and times are developed
by the teen groups. Program activities include community service; volunteer activities; sports and games; cultural, performing, and
visual arts; field trips; and educational programs such as financial management, and abstinence. Each facility has a room that has been
completely dedicated to teens and teen programming equipped with lounge furniture, computers, and video games.
In previous years, the grant covered 100% of the "Charting the Course for Youth" program staffing cost for the fiscal year. This year,
we are guaranteed 75% of the funding or $56,858 through June 2, 2008. We will be reimbursed 100% provided that we serve the same
number of youth as we did last year. The 75% covers all staffing costs for two facilities. The third facility in the program last year,
Wood Valley, was dropped due to the funding changes. Clearwater's in-kind contribution includes overall program supervision and
coordination.
There is no requirement to continue the program when the grant ends.
The following special project numbers have been established for accounting purposes:

Meeting Date: 11/3/2008
Work Session
Council Chambers - City Hall
SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION:
Amend numerous sections of Chapter 22 of the City of Clearwater Code of Ordinances relating to Parks, Beaches, and Recreation and
pass Ordinance 8007-08 on first reading.
SUMMARY:
The Code of Ordinances Chapter 22 regulating Parks, Beaches and Recreation was last amended on January 20, 2005 when Section
22.24 was amended by adding the hours of operation for each City park in the Code of Ordinances; requiring at least one prominently
posted sign be installed at each park stating the hours of operation; and providing an exception to the closing hours which would allow a
permit to be issued by the Department or the City Manger. It also amended Section 22.33 deleting reference to park hours due to a
revision of applicable hours at Courtney Campbell Recreation Area.
Other than this change Chapter 22 has remained basically the same for the past 25 years and served the City and citizens well. However,
due to the longevity of these rules an update of several of the sections are needed to address some of the new issues law enforcement
and Parks and Recreation staff are currently facing. For the safety and welfare of the public, staff is recommending that the ordinance
needs to be amended as follows:
Section 22.21 Definitions:
Clarification of the definition of "Public Nudity" as defined in Chapter 21.
Clarification of definition of "Person".
Section 22.24 Authority to regulate beaches, park property, and the Courtney Campbell Recreation Area:
Corrected park hours at several parks.
Added language to protect park property and facilities from persons parking vehicles on park property and leaving the premises or
parking and then not using the facility as intended.
Section 22.28 Protection and preservation of property:
Added language to protect not only park buildings but also other park facilities. . Added language to allow for metal detectors
at parks by permit only.
Added a new paragraph to preserve and protect archaeological and historic sites found on parks.
Prohibit persons from using water from water fountains, hose bibs and sinks for bathing.
Added a paragraph to strengthen the protection of wooden structures and trees from persons using nails, tacks and staples.
Section 22.29 Refuse and trash:
Strengthened this section to prohibit persons from bringing trash from off site and depositing in City trash containers.
Section 22.31. Protection and preservation of wildlife:
Strengthened section by adding new paragraph to prohibit persons from feeding or petting any feral or wild animal on park
property.
Section 22.33. Bathing and swimming areas and the Courtney Campbell Recreation Area:
Added a paragraph to protect lifeguard stand, station and equipment from public use.
Added a paragraph to prohibit persons from washing their pets in swimming areas and/or other public waters.
Section 22.35. Fishing
Strengthened this section by adding paragraph that fishing will be in accordance with the State Fish and Wildlife Conservation
Commission and the State Department of Environmental Protection rules and regulations.
Prohibited use of cast nets for fishing in fresh water.
Added paragraph requiring persons to dispose of unwanted fish in appropriate receptacles.
Prohibited fishing from and into public bathing and swimming areas. Cover Memo
Section 22.40. Domestic animals:
Added a paragraph to allow dogs off leash at Crest Lake Dog Park and Enterprise Dog Park
Reworded a paragraph relating to the removal of pet defecation on park property.
Item # 8
Section 22.46. Parking:
Added paragraph to prohibit person from parking a vehicle in a "no parking" zone or restricted use zone on park property.
Section 22.49. Organized activities or potentially dangerous games:
Added language to include the use of wheeled device like a skateboard, roller skates and in-line skates except in the areas set
aside for that purpose.
Added paragraph to clarify and prohibit persons from trespassing on athletic fields that have been posted by permit only without a
valid permit.
Section 22.53. Merchandising, vending, peddling:
Included the words "food or drink of any kind" as items that cannot be sold or merchandised on park and beach properties.
Section 22.61. Trails:
Added an entirely new section to address some of the needs of the new recreational trails within the parks system. Specific new
paragraphs address the following:
Addresses what vehicles can be used on the trail system.
Addresses the speed at which persons should use when on the trail.
Addresses the manner in which a person should use on the trail.
Defined the word travel on the trail.
Addresses following traffic rules and control devices while on the trail.
The amending of this Ordinance will provide for a tool that can be used by City law enforcement officers to more effectively patrol City
parks and enforce the rules and regulations at each park.

$100,000.00. (consent)
SUMMARY:
The Clearwater Homeless Intervention Project Shelter opened in April 1998, and since that date has provided a safe overnight

In previous years the City of Clearwater has donated $100,000 to CHIP. The police department requests that the City continue
their contribution to CHIP, which will be applied toward needed operational funding essential to the CHIP shelter's successful
operation.
Funding for this donation in the amount of $100,000.00 is available in the Special Program project 181-99330 & 99331, Homeless

SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the transfer of $15,909.89 received from Clearwater Housing Authority for payment in lieu of taxes to the Clearwater
Homeless Intervention Project, Inc. (CHIP). (consent)
SUMMARY:
Historically, since 1997, the City Council has authorized the funds representing Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) to be
appropriated to the Clearwater Homeless Intervention Project, Inc. (CHIP).
On September 4,2008, Clearwater Housing Authority (CHA) paid $15,909.89 for Payment in Lieu of Taxes (PILOT) to the City
of Clearwater. In a letter to City Manager William Home on that same date, CHA requested that these funds be donated by the City to
offset operational costs for CHIP. The PILOT funds were deposited immediately into the City's General Fund Reserves.
In order to allow CHIP to have access to these necessary funds as soon as possible for operational expenses, it is requested that
the funds be transferred as soon as possible from the General Fund Reserves to Special Program 181-99938, Homeless Shelter.

Interoffice Memorandum
To: Bill Home, City Manager
From: Doug MattheV\5, Public Corrummications Director
cc: Jill Silverboard, Assistant City Manager
Rod Irnin, Assistant City Manager
Date: 10/24/2008
The Public Corrummications Department has received the results from our 2008 Citizen Survey,
conducted as part of the National Citizen Survey (NCS) and administered by the National Research
Center (NRC) in Boulder, CO. PC chose the NCS as part of the organizational efforts to build
reliable benchmarks for perfonnance measurement. This survey is administered to roughly 500 local
governments across the cOlmtry, providing a snapshot of Oearwater's perfonnance relative to other
jurisdictions, and Where possible relative to previous city surveys. The surveywas administered by
mail during the months of August and September of 2008 to a random sampling of residents
throughout the corrummity. Previous surveys have been conducted via telephone.
Results are based on a total of 735 completed surveys, for a response rate of 29%. These results
~re benchmarked against all other participating corrununities, and ranked against all co:mrrumities
of similar size to Oearwater (pop. 64,000 -150,000).
Y oull note that the new survey places more of a focus on broader corrununity characteristics in
addition to traditional ratings of city services. As a result of the change in survey methodology, it has
been difficult in some cases to compare results from previous surveys in 2003 and 2006, but youll
find that those comparisons are included Where applicable.
Following are some of the key findings:
CLEARWATER AS A PLACE TO LIVE
83% of respondents said that Oearwater was a "good" or "excellent" place to live, and 76%
of respondents said the same of their neighborhoods. These '\'\ere consistent with
benchmarks. Those llllder 35 or over 54 '\'\ere slightly more likely to respond positively ( + 8%
and + 7% respectively). Those living in the downtown '\'\ere significantly less likely to
respond positively to both questions (76% and 47% respectively).
75% of respondents rate the overall quality of life in Oearwater as "good" or "excellent"
Which tracks with national benchmarks and is similar to results from the 2006 survey (80%).
Item # 11
Attachment number 2
Page 2 of 6
Those without children ~re more likely to give positive scores (+ 13%), as ~re those mder
35 (+ 10%) and over 54 (+ 9%). Those in the downtown neighborhoods rated quality of life
significantly lo~r (62%) than other areas of the community.
Scores regarding community cleanliness (64%) and quality of the natural environment (61 %)
~re below national benchmarks. Those with children (55%) and those be~ the ages of
35 and 54 (55%) scored the city lo~r on cleanliness, as did those living in downtown
neighborhoods (52%). Those living in downtown neighborhoods and in central Oearwater
scored the city lo~r on the quality of the natural environment (48% and 57% respectively).
When asked if Oearwater was moving in the right direction, only 47% responded positively,
compared with 66% in the 2006 survey. This was below benchmark scores, and was quite
likely affected in part by the budget reductions that ~re taking place at the time of the
survey. The number responding positively is highest with those Who have been in the
community less than five years (61%) and lo~st with those living in the community over 20
years (36%). Those mder 35 ~re significantly more likely to respond positively than other
age groups, with a 65% positive response. Those living in beach communities ~re far less
likely to respond positively (30%) than other areas of the corrummity.
Participants generally felt good about the reputation of Oearwater as a community, with
67% responding positively. This was similar to benchmark scores. Those mder 35 or over
54 ~re significantly more likely to respond positively(+ 19% and +8% respectively). Those
living downtown or in beach communities ~re less likely to respond positively (54% and
53% respectively).

QUALITY OF SERVICE
Seven out of ten Oearwater residents (70%) rate the overall performance of the City in
providing services as "good" or "excellent." This figure is virtuallymchanged from the 67
percent of residents Who responded positively in 2006. This tracked similarly with national
benchmarks. Those mder 35 or over 54 ~re more likely to score the city's service levels
positively ( + 11 % and + 13% respectively). Those living in the beach communities ~re less
likely to respond positively (61 %) than other areas of the corrummity.
Only 48% of those surveyed vie~d the value received for their city taxes positively, Which
could be a reflection of the larger property tax debates taking place locally and arOlmd the
state. This ranked below the national benchmark Those mder 35 or over 54 ~re
significantly more likely to respond positively (+ 17% and + 18% respectively). Those living
in the beach corrummities ~re significantly less likely to respond positively (33%) than
other areas of the corrummity.

Staff was rated mostly positive in Knowledge (81 %), Responsiveness (73%), Courtesy (79%)

COMMUNITY SAFETY
Most respondents (92%) felt safe in their neighborhoods during the day, V\hich dropped to
71 % at night. These numbers tracked with national benchmarks. Positive reponses '\'\ere
particularly IO'\'\er for the downtown neighborhoods (85% day, 46% night) than in other
areas of the city.
77% of respondents felt safe in the downtown area during the day, a number that dropped
to 35% at night, both below national benchmarks. These perceptions '\'\ere fairly consistent
across all demographics, with older residents and women feeling slightly less safe than other
groups.
64% of respondents indicated feeling safe against violent crimes in Oearwater, and 53%
indicated feeling safe against property crimes. While the property crime numbers track with
other benchmark corrummities, the violent crime numbers are above national benchmarks.
These '\'\ere driven by notably IO'\'\er numbers in downtown neighborhoods (52% and 41 %
respectively) and in central Oearwater (62% and 47% respectively).

Culturally, the city was above the benchmark in terms of availability of cultural activities,
with 62% rating those opportunities positively. The city ranked consistent with national
benchmarks on educational opportunities, at 55%.
Oearwater scored '\'\ell above the benchmark in offering recreational opportunities (74%
positive) and visitation to parks & recreation facilities was consistent with national
benchmarks (86% and 55% respectively). Participation in recreation programs, though, was
slightly below benchmark scores at 41 %.

Affordable housing remains a concern, though the numbers are not notably above or below
national benchmarks, \\ith only 29% saying that there is a good supply of quality affordable
housing. As an indicator of possible stress on the local market (especially in light of recent
economic developments) 42% of respondents indicated that their home costs consumed
more than 30% of their income. This is a new question, so there are no available
benchmarks.
Internet use continues to climb, rising from 48% in 2006 to 59% in 2008, tracking \\ith
national benchmarks. Younger residents and those ne~r to Oearwater ~re more likely to
have used the city~bsite.
Having a recreation facility and/or library\\ithin walking distance was far less important to
respondents (39%) than having one in a respondent's neighborhood/nearby neighborhood
(53%) or \\ithin 10 minutes of home (58%). As could be expected, younger residents and
those \\ith children felt most strongly about local accessibility.
68% of respondents support reducing hours at recreation centers or libraries as a means of
reducing the city budget. Those betv\een 35 and 54 '\'\ere less likely to support a proposed
reduction in hours (52%).
CONCLUSIONS
It's apparent that a falling housing market, increased contention over development issues and
reductions precipitated from property tax reductions have all contributed to a different tone in this
year's community survey. While differences in some responses can be attributed to a new survey
methodology, there are clearly themes \\ithin the data that can help Oearwater focus resources and
decisions in the future.
The NCS rates two aspects of life in the city. Services and Characteristics. In terms of services,
Oearwater almost universally performs consistent \\ith or above national benchmarks. In evaluating
the results, three of the four areas ranking below benchmark scores can all be related to growth and
redevelopment (water, economic development, traffic enforcement, traffic signalization) While
another (public parking) is a ~ll-known issue in the community. The only other service to score
below benchmarks was fire prevention and education, an area that has seen significant reduction in
the last two budget years.
Scores on corrununity characteristics, though, generally fell equal to or below benchmarks \\ith the
exception of quality of life aspects like recreation and culture. Many of these characteristics aren't
influenced solely by the city government, and could require broader partnerships \\ith corrununity
organizations in order to influence them An interesting trend in the data is that residents betv\een
35 and 54 generally feel less positive about the corrununity than younger and older residents.
It's evident from the data that citizens are generally happy \\ith city services, but continue to have
reservations about redevelopment and their role in redevelopment decisions. It's also clear that
downtown neighborhoods continue to have pressing needs in the areas of corrununity safety and
involvement that require focused, long-term support.
Overall, the NCS provides an abmdance of data and a good lamching point for future strategic
planning and perfonnance management discussions.

ABOUT THE NATIONAL CITIZEN SURVEY"
The National Citizen SurveyTM (The NCS) is a collaborative effort between National Research
Center, Inc. (NRC) and the International City/County Management Association (ICMA). The NCS
was developed by NRC to provide a statistically valid survey of resident opinions about community
and services provided by local government. The survey results may be used by staff, elected
officials and other stakeholders for community planning and reSourCe allocation, program
improvement and policy making.
FIGURE 1: THE NATIONAL CITIZEN SURVEyTM METHODS AND GOALS
The NCS focuses on a series of community characteristics and local government services, as well as
issues of public trust. Resident behaviors related to civic engagement in the community also Were
measured in the survey.

FIGURE 2: THE NATIONAL CITIZEN SURVEy'M Focus AREAS
The survey and its administration are standardized to assure high quality research methods and
directly comparable results across The National Citizen Survey'M jurisdictions. Participating
households are selected at random and the household member who responds is selected without
bias. Multiple mailings give each household more than one chance to participate with self-
addressed and postage-paid envelopes. Results are statistically weighted to reflect the proper
demographic composition of the entire community. A total of 735 completed surveys were
obtained, providing an overall response rate of 29%. Typically, response rates obtained on citizen
surveys range from 25% to 40%.
The National Citizen Survey'M customized for the City of Clearwater was developed in close
cooperation with local jurisdiction staff. Clearwater staff selected items from a menu of questions
about services and community problems and provided the appropriate letterhead and signatures for
mailings. City of Clearwater staff also augmented The National Citizen Survey'M basic service
through a variety of options including a custom set of benchmark comparisons, crosstabulation of
results and several policy questions.

UNDERSTANDING THE RESULTS
As shown in Figure 2, this report is based around respondents' reports about eight larger categories:
community quality, community design, public safety, environmental sustainability, recreation and
wellness, community inclusiveness, civic engagement and public trust. Each section begins with
residents' ratings of community characteristics and is followed by residents' ratings of service
quality. For all evaluative questions, the percent of residents rating the service or community
feature as "excellent" or "good" is presented. To See the full set of responses for each question on
the survey, please See Appendix A: Complete Survey Frequencies.
Margin of Error
It is customary to describe the precision of estimates made from surveys by a "level of confidence"
(or margin of error). The 95% confidence interval quantifies the sampling error or precision of the
estimates made from the survey results. A 95% confidence interval can be calculated for any
question and indicates that for every 100 random samples of this many residents, the population
response to that question would be within the stated interval 95 times. The 95% confidence level
for the City of Clearwater survey is generally no greater than plus or minus four percentage points
around any given percent reported for the entire sample (735 completed surveys).
Comparing Survey Results
Certain kinds of services tend to be thought better of by residents in many communities across the
country. For example, public safety services tend to be received better than transportation services
by residents of most American communities. Where possible, the better comparison is not from one
service to another in the City of Clearwater, but from City of Clearwater services to services like
them provided by other jurisdictions.
Interpreting Comparisons to Previous Years
This report contains comparisons with prior years' results. In this report, We are comparing this
year's data with existing data in the graphs. Differences between years can be considered
"statistically significant" if they are greater than five percentage points. Trend data for your
jurisdiction represent important comparison data and should be examined for improvements or
declines. Deviations from stable trends OVer time especially represent opportunities for
understanding how local policies, programs or public information may have affected residents'
opinions.
Benchmark Comparisons
NRC's database of comparative resident opinion is comprised of resident perspectives gathered in
citizen surveys from approximately 500 jurisdictions whose residents evaluated local government
services and gave their opinion about the quality of community life. The City of Clearwater chose
to have comparisons made to the entire database and a subset of similar jurisdictions from the
database (jurisdictions with populations of at least 64,000 but less than 150,000). A benchmark
comparison (the average rating from all the comparison jurisdictions where a similar question was
asked) has been provided when a similar question on the City of Clearwater Survey was included in
NRC's database and there Were at least five jurisdictions in which the question was asked. For most
questions compared to the entire dataset, there Were more than 100 jurisdictions included in the
benchmark comparison.
Where comparisons Were available, the City of Clearwater results Were noted as being "above" the
benchmark, "below" the benchmark or "similar to" the benchmark. This evaluation of "above,"

benchmark.
-Don't Know" Responses and Rounding
On many of the questions in the survey respondents may anSWer "don't know." The proportion of
respondents giving this reply is shown in the full set of responses included in Appendix A.
However, these responses have been removed from the analyses presented in the body of the
report. In other words, the tables and graphs display the responses from respondents who had an
opinion about a specific item.
For some questions, respondents Were permitted to select more than one anSWer. When the total
exceeds 100% in a table for a multiple response question, it is because some respondents did select
more than one response. When a table for a question that only permitted a single response does not
total to exactly 100%, it is due to the customary practice of percentages being rounded to the
nearest whole number.

This report of the City of Clearwater survey provides the opinions of a representative sample of
residents about community quality of life, service delivery, civic participation and unique issues of
local interest. A periodic sounding of resident opinion offers staff, elected officials and other
stakeholders an opportunity to identify challenges and to plan for and evaluate improvements and
to sustain services and amenities for long-term sucCess.
Most residents experience a good quality of life in the City of Clearwater and believe the City is a
good place to live. The overall quality of life in the City of Clearwater was rated as "excellent" or
"good" by 75% of respondents. A majority report they plan on staying in the City of Clearwater for
the next five years.
A variety of characteristics of the community Were evaluated by those participating in the study.
The three receiving the most favorable ratings Were opportunities to volunteer, shopping
opportunities and recreational opportunities. The three characteristics receiving the least positive
ratings Were amount of public parking, availability of affordable quality housing and traffic flow on
major streets.
Many of the community characteristics rated Were able to be compared to the benchmark database.
Of the 30 characteristics for which comparisons Were available, four Were above the benchmark
comparison, 15 Were similar to the benchmark comparison and 11 Were below.
Residents in the City of Clearwater Were somewhat civically engaged. While only 24% had
attended a meeting of local elected public officials or other local public meeting in the previous 12
months, 96% had provided help to a friend or neighbor. Less than half had volunteered their time
to some group or activity in the City of Clearwater.
In general, survey respondents demonstrated mild distrust in local government. Less than half rated
the overall direction being taken by the City of Clearwater as "good" or "excellent." This was lower
than the benchmark. Those residents who had interacted with an employee of the City of
Clearwater in the previous 12 months gave high marks to those employees. Most rated their overall
impression as excellent or good.
On average, residents gave generally favorable ratings to most of local government services. Many
of the City services rated Were able to be compared to the benchmark database. Of the 33 services
for which comparisons Were available, 12 Were above the benchmark comparison, 15 Were similar
to the benchmark comparison and five Were below.

A Key Driver Analysis was conducted for the City of Clearwater which examined the relationships
between ratings of each service and ratings of the City of Clearwater's services overall. Those key
driver services that correlated most strongly with residents' perceptions about overall City service
quality have been identified. By targeting improvements in key services, the City of Clearwater can
focus on the services that have the greatest likelihood of influencing residents' opinions about
overall service quality. Services found to be influential in ratings of overall service quality from the
Key Driver Analysis Were:
Economic development
Public schools
Emergency preparedness
Police services
Of these services, those deserving the most attention may be those that Were below or similar to the
benchmark comparisons: economic development, public schools and police services. For
emergency preparedness, the City of Clearwater is above the benchmark and should continue to
ensure high quality performance.

OVERAll COMMUNITY QUALITY
Overall quality of community life may be the single best indicator of success in providing the
natural ambience, services and amenities that make for an attractive community. The National
Citizen SurveyTM contained many questions related to quality of community life in the City of
Clearwater - not only direct questions about quality of life overall and in neighborhoods, but
questions to measure residents' commitment to the City of Clearwater. Residents were asked
whether they planned to move soon or if they would recommend the City of Clearwater to others.
Intentions to stay and willingness to make recommendations provide evidence that the City of
Clearwater offers services and amenities that work.
Many of the City of Clearwater's residents gave favorable ratings to their neighborhoods and the
community as a place to live. Further, a majority reported they would recommend the community
to others and plan to stay for the next five years.

COMMUNITY DESIGN
Transportation
The ability to move easily throughout a community can greatly affect the quality of life of residents
by diminishing time wasted in traffic congestion and by providing opportunities to travel quickly
and safely by modes other than the automobile. High quality options for resident mobility not only
require local government to remove barriers to flow but they require government programs and
policies that create quality opportunities for all modes of travel.
Residents responding to the survey were given a list of six aspects of mobility to rate on a scale of
"excellent," "good," "fair" and "poor." "Availability of paths and walking trails" was given the most
positive rating, followed by "ease of walking in Clearwater." These ratings tended to be lower than
the benchmark. Comparisons to previous years were not available.

By measuring choice of travel mode over time, communities can monitor their success in providing
attractive alternatives to the traditional mode of travel, the single-occupied automobile. When
asked how they typically traveled to work, single-occupancy (SOV) travel was the overwhelming
mode of use. However, 2% of work commute trips were made by transit, 2% by bicycle and 2% by
foot.

Housing
Housing variety and affordability are not luxuries for any community. When there are too few
options for housing style and affordability, the characteristics of a community tilt heavily to a
homogeneous palette, often of well-off residents. While this may seem attractive to a community,
the absence of affordable townhomes, condominiums, mobile homes, single family detached
homes and apartments means that in addition to losing the vibrancy of diverse thoughts and
lifestyles, the community loses the service workers that sustain all communities - police officers,
school teachers, house painters and electricians. These workers must live elsewhere and commute
in at great personal cost and to the detriment of traffic flow and air quality. Furthermore lower
income residents who can sustain in a community with mostly high cost housing pay so much of
their income to rent or mortgage that little remains to bolster their own quality of life or local
business.
The survey of the City of Clearwater residents asked respondents to reflect on the availability of
affordable housing as well as the variety of housing options. The availability of affordable housing
was rated as "excellent" or "good" by 29% of respondents, while the variety of housing options was
rated as "excellent" or "good" by 55% of respondents. The rating of perceived affordable housing
availability was similar to the City of Clearwater in comparison to jurisdictions across the nation.
Comparisons to previous years were not available.

To augment the perceptions of affordable housing in Clearwater, the cost of housing as reported in
the survey was compared to residents' reported monthly income to create a rough estimate of the
proportion of residents of the City of Clearwater experiencing housing cost stress. About two in five
survey participants Were found to pay housing costs of more than 30% of their monthly household
Income.

land Use and Zoning
Community development contributes to a feeling among residents and even visitors of the attention
given to the speed of growth, the location of residences and businesses, the kind of housing that is
appropriate for the community and the ease of access to commerce, green space and residences.
Even the community's overall appearance often is attributed to the planning and enforcement
functions of the local jurisdiction. Residents will appreciate an attractive, well-planned community.
The NCS questionnaire asked residents to evaluate the quality of new development, the appearance
of the City of Clearwater and the speed of population growth. Problems with the appearance of
property were rated, and the quality of land use planning, zoning and code enforcement services
were evaluated.
The overall quality of new development in the City of Clearwater was rated as "excellent" or
"good" by 50% of respondents. The overall appearance of Clearwater was rated as "excellent" or
"good" by 67% of respondents and was similar to the national benchmark. When rating to what
extent run down buildings, weed lots or junk vehicles were a problem in the City of Clearwater,
90% thought they were at least a "minor" problem. The services of land use planning and zoning
and code enforcement were rated similar to the benchmark. Ratings for code enforcement showed
an upward pattern when compared to past years, however, these differences in ratings over time
may be at least partially attributable to changes in question wording and response options.

ECONOMIC SUSTAINABllITY
The health of the economy may color how residents perceive their environment and all the services
that local government delivers. In particular, a strong or weak local economy will shape what
residents think about job and shopping opportunities. Just as residents have an idea about the speed
of local population growth, they have a sense of how fast job and shopping opportunities are
groWing.
Survey respondents were asked to rate a number of community features related to economic
opportunity and growth. The most positively rated features were shopping opportunities and the
overall quality of business and service establishments in the city. Receiving the lowest rating was
employment opportunities. Comparisons to previous years were not available.

PUBLIC SAFETY
Safety from violent or property crimes creates the cornerstone of an attractive community. No one
wants to live in fear of crime, fire or natural hazards, and communities in which residents feel
protected or unthreatened are communities that are more likely to show growth in population,
commerCe and property value.
Residents Were asked to rate their feelings of safety from violent crimes, property crimes, fire and
environmental dangers and to evaluate the local agencies whose main charge is to provide
protection from these dangers. Many gave positive ratings of safety in the City Clearwater. About
64% percent of those completing the questionnaire said they felt "very" or "somewhat" safe from
violent crimes and 67% felt "very" or "somewhat" safe from environmental hazards. Daytime SenSe
of safety was better than nighttime safety and neighborhoods felt safer than downtown.

ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABllITY
Residents value the aesthetic qualities of their hometowns and appreciate features such as overall
cleanliness and landscaping. In addition, the appearance and smell or taste of the air and water do
not go unnoticed. These days, increasing attention is paid to proper treatment of the environment.
At the same time that they are attending to community appearance and cleanliness, cities, counties,
states and the nation are going "Green". These strengthening environmental conCerns extend to
trash haul, recycling, SeWer services, the delivery of power and water and preservation of open
spaces. Treatment of the environment affects air and water quality and, generally, how habitable
and inviting a place appears
Residents of the City of Clearwater Were asked to evaluate their local environment and the services
provided to ensure its quality. The overall quality of the natural environment was rated as
"excellent" or "good" by 61 % of survey respondents. Cleanliness of Clearwater received the highest
rating, and it was below the benchmark.

Parks and Recreation
Quality parks and recreation opportunities help to define a community as more than the grind of its
business, traffic and hard work. Leisure activities vastly can improve the quality of life of residents,
serving both to entertain and mobilize good health. The survey contained questions seeking
residents' perspectives about opportunities and services related the community's parks and
recreation services.
Recreation opportunities in the City of Clearwater were rated positively as were services related to
parks and recreation. City parks, recreation programs or classes, and recreation centers or facilities
were rated higher than the benchmark. Parks and recreation ratings have varied over time.

Culture, Arts and Education
A full service community does not address only the life and safety of its residents. Like an
individual who drudges to the office and returns home, a community that pays attention only to the
life sustaining basics becomes insular, dreary and uninspiring to business and individuals. In the
case of communities without thriving culture, arts and education opportunities, the magnet that
attracts those who might consider relocating there is vastly weakened. Cultural, artistic, social and
educational services elevate the opportunities for personal growth among residents. In the survey,
residents were asked about the quality of opportunities to participate in cultural and educational
activities.
Opportunities to attend cultural activities was rated as "excellent" or "good" by 62% of
respondents. Educational opportunities were rated as "excellent" or "good" by 55% of respondents.
Compared to the benchmark data, educational opportunities were below the average of
comparison jurisdictions, while cultural activity opportunities were rated above the benchmark
comparIson.

Health and Wellness
Healthy residents have the wherewithal to contribute to the economy as volunteers or employees
and they do not present a burden in cost and time to others. Although residents bear the primary
responsibility for their good health, local government provides services that can foster that well
being and that provide care when residents are ill.
Residents of the City of Clearwater Were asked to rate the community's health services as well as
the availability of health care, high quality affordable food and preventive health care services. The
availability of affordable quality food was rated most positively for the City of Clearwater, while the
availability for affordable quality health care was rated less favorably by residents.

COMMUNITY INCLUSIVENESS
Diverse communities that include among their residents a mix of races, ages, wealth, ideas and
beliefs have the raw material for the most vibrant and creative society. However, the presence of
these features alone does not ensure a high quality or desirable space. Surveyed residents were
asked about the success of the mix: the sense of community, the openness of residents to people of
diverse backgrounds and the attractiveness of the City of Clearwater as a place to raise children or
to retire. They were also questioned about the quality of services delivered to various population
subgroups, including older adults, youth and residents with few resources. A community that
succeeds in creating an inclusive environment for a variety of residents is a community that offers
more to many.
A moderate percentage of residents rated the City of Clearwater as an "excellent" or "good" place
to raise kids and a moderate percentage rated it as an excellent or good place to retire. Some
residents felt the local sense of community was "excellent" or "good." Most survey respondents felt
the City of Clearwater was open and accepting towards people of diverse backgrounds. Availability
of affordable quality childcare was rated the lowest by residents and was lower than the
benchmark.

CIVIC ENGAGEMENT
Government leaders, elected or hired, cannot run a jurisdiction alone and a jurisdiction cannot run
effectively if residents remain strangers with little to connect them. Staff and elected officials require
the assistance of local residents whether that assistance comes in tacit approval or eager help; and
commonality of purpose among the electorate facilitates policies and programs that appeal to most
and causes discord among few. Furthermore, when neighbors help neighbors, the cost to the
community to provide services to residents in need declines. When residents are civically engaged,
they have taken the opportunity to participate in making the community more livable for all. The
extent to which local government provides opportunities to become informed and engaged and the
extent to which residents take those opportunities is an indicator of the connection between
government and populace. By understanding your residents' level of connection to, knowledge of
and participation in local government, the City can find better opportunities to communicate and
educate citizens about its mission, services, accomplishments and plans. This survey information is
essential for public communication and for helping local government staff to conceive strategies for
reaching reluctant voters whose confidence in government may need boosting prior to important
referenda.
Civic Activity
Respondents were asked about the perceived community volunteering opportunities and their
participation as citizens of the City of Clearwater. Survey participants rated the volunteer
opportunities in the City of Clearwater favorably. Opportunities to attend or participate in

PUBLIC TRUST
Residents are more likely to cooperate with the proposals and policies advanced by their
community leaders when trust in local government officials runs high. Trust can be measured in
residents' opinions about the overall direction the City of Clearwater is taking, their perspectives
about the service value their taxes purchase and the openness of government to citizen
participation. In addition, resident opinion about services provided by the City of Clearwater could
be compared to their opinion about services provided by the state and federal governments. If
residents find nothing to admire in the services delivered by any level of government, their
opinions about the City of Clearwater may be colored by their dislike of what all levels of
government provide.
About half of respondents felt that the value of services for taxes paid was "excellent" or "good."
When asked to rate the job the City of Clearwater does at listening to citizens, 34% rated it as
"excellent" or "good."

On average, residents of the City of Clearwater gave the highest evaluations to their own local
government and the lowest average rating to the Federal and State governments. The overall quality
of services delivered by the City of Clearwater was rated as "excellent" or "good" by 70% of survey
participants. The City of Clearwater's rating was similar to the benchmark when compared to other
communities in the United States. Ratings of overall City services have fluctuated over the last five
years, but these changes may be due to the different ways in which this question has been asked in
the past.

City of Clearwater Employees
The employees of the City of Clearwater who interact with the public create the first impression
that most residents have of the City of Clearwater. Front line staff who provide information, assist
with bill paying, collect trash, create service schedules, fight fires and crime and even give traffic
tickets are the collective face of the City of Clearwater. As such, it is important to know about
residents' experience talking with that "face." When employees appear to be knowledgeable,
responsive and courteous, residents are more likely to feel that any needs or problems may be
solved through positive and productive interactions with the City of Clearwater staff.
Those completing the survey were asked if they had been in contact with a City employee either in-
person or over the phone in the last 12 months; the 53 % who reported that they had been in
contact were then asked to indicate overall how satisfied they were with the employee in their most
recent contact. City employees were rated highly; 75% of respondents rated their overall
impression as "excellent" or "good." Employee ratings were similar to the national benchmark.
Ratings of employee courtesy in 2008 were similar to ratings received in 2006.

RESIDENT PRIORITIES
Knowing where to focus limited resources to improve residents' opinions of local government
requires information that targets the services that are most important to residents. However, when
residents are asked what services are most important, they rarely stray beyond core services - those
directed to save lives and improve safety.
In market research, identifying the most important characteristics of a transaction or product is
called Key Driver Analysis. The key drivers that are identified from that analysis do not come from
asking customers to self-report which service or product characteristic most influenced their
decision to buy or return, but rather from statistical analyses of the predictors of their behavior.
When customers are asked to name the most important characteristics of a good or service,
responses often are expected or misleading - just as they can be in the context of a citizen survey.
For example, air travelers often claim that safety is the primary consideration in their choice of an
airline, yet key driver analysis reveals that frequent flier perks or in-flight entertainment predicts
their buying decisions.
In local government core services - like fire protection - invariably land at the top of the list
created when residents are asked about the most important local government services. And core
services are important. But by using Key Driver Analysis, our approach digs deeper to identify the
less obvious, but more influential services that are most related to residents' ratings of overall
quality of local government services. Because services focused directly on life and safety remain
essential to quality government, it is suggested that core services should remain the focus of
continuous monitoring and improvement where necessary - but monitoring core services or asking
residents to identify important services is not enough.
A Key Driver Analysis (KDA) was conducted for the City of Clearwater by examining the
relationships between ratings of each service and ratings of the City of Clearwater's overall services.
Those key driver services that correlated most highly with residents' perceptions about overall City
service quality have been identified. By targeting improvements in key services, the City of
Clearwater can focus on the services that have the greatest likelihood of influencing residents'
opinions about overall service quality.
Services found to be most strongly correlated with ratings of overall service quality from the
Clearwater Key Driver Analysis were:
Economic development
Public schools
Emergency preparedness
Police services

CITY OF CLEARWATER ACTION CHART
The 2008 City of Clearwater Action Chart'M on the following page combines three dimensions of
performance:
Comparison to resident evaluations from other communities. When a comparison is available,
the background color of each service box indicates whether the service is above the benchmark
(green), similar to the benchmark (yellow) or below the benchmark (red).
Identification of key services. A black key icon next to a service box indicates that service is key
(either core or key driver)
Twenty-six services were included in the KDA for the City of Clearwater. Of these, 10 were above
the benchmark, five were below the benchmark and 10 were similar to the benchmark (no
comparison was available for beach maintenance).
Considering all performance data included in the Action Chart, a jurisdiction typically will want to
consider improvements to any key driver services that are not at least similar to the benchmark. In
Clearwater, economic development and public schools were below the benchmark and police
services were similar to the benchmark. More detail about interpreting results can be found in the
next section.
Services with a high percent of respondents answering "don't know" were excluded from the
analysis and were considered services that would be less influential. See Appendix A: Complete
Survey Frequencies, Frequencies Including "Don't Know" Responses (beginning on page 62) for the
percent "don't know" for each service.

Using Your Action Chartlll
The key drivers derived for the City of Clearwater provide a list of those services that are uniquely
related to overall service quality here. Those key drivers are marked by key symbols in the action
chart. Because key driver results are based on a relatively small number of responses, the
relationships or correlations that define the key drivers are subject to more variability than is seen
when key drivers are derived from a large national dataset of resident responses. To benefit the
City of Clearwater, NRC lists the key drivers derived from tens of thousands of resident responses
from across the county. This list is updated every three years so that you can compare your key
drivers to the key drivers from the entire NRC data set. Where your locally derived key drivers
overlap national key drivers, it makes sense to focus even more strongly on your keys. Similarly,
when your local key drivers overlap your core services, there is stronger argument to make for
attending to your key drivers that overlap with core services. In the following table, we have listed
your key drivers, core services and the national key drivers and we have indicated the City of
Clearwater key drivers that overlap core services or the nationally derived keys.

City of Clearwater I 2008
The National Citizen SurveyTM was developed to provide local jurisdictions an accurate, affordable
and easy way to assess and interpret resident opinion about important community issues. While
standardization of question wording and survey methods provide the rigor to assure valid results,
each jurisdiction has enough flexibility to construct a customized version of The National Citizen
SurveyTM that asks residents about key local services and important local issues.
Results offer insight into residents' perspectives about local government performance and as such
provide important benchmarks for jurisdictions working on performance measurement. The
National Citizen SurveyTM is designed to help with budget, land use and strategic planning as well
as to communicate with local residents. The National Citizen SurveyTM permits questions to test
support for local policies and answers to its questions also speak to community trust and
involvement in community-building activities as well as to resident demographic characteristics.
SURVEY VALIDITY
The question of survey validity has two parts: 1) how can a jurisdiction be confident that the results
from those who completed the questionnaire are representative of the results that would have been
obtained had the survey been administered to the entire population? and 2) how closely do the
perspectives recorded on the survey reflect what residents really believe or do?
To answer the first question, the best survey research practices were used for the resources spent to
ensure that the results from the survey respondents reflect the opinions of residents in the entire
jurisdiction. These practices include:
Using a mail-out/mail-back methodology, which typically gets a higher response rate than
phone for the same dollars spent. A higher response rate lessens the worry that those who did
not respond are different than those who did respond.
Selecting households at random within the jurisdiction to receive the survey. A random
selection ensures that the households selected to receive the survey are similar to the entire
population. A non-random sample may only include households from one geographic area, or
from households of only one type.
Over-sampling multi-family housing units to improve response from hard-to-reach, lower
income, or younger apartment dwellers.
Selecting the respondent within the household using an unbiased sampling procedure; in this
case, the "birthday method." The cover letter included an instruction requesting that the
respondent in the household be the adult (18 years old or older) who most recently had a
birthday, irrespective of year of birth.
Contacting potential respondents three times to encourage response from people who may
have different opinions or habits than those who would respond with only a single prompt.
Soliciting response on jurisdiction letterhead signed by the highest ranking elected official or
staff member, thus appealing to the recipients' sense of civic responsibility.
Providing a self-addressed, postage-paid return envelope.
Offering the survey in Spanish when appropriate and requested by City officials.
Using the most recent available information about the characteristics of jurisdiction residents to
weight the data to reflect the demographics of the population.
The answer to the second question about how closely the perspectives recorded on the survey
reflect what residents really believe or do is more complex. Resident responses to surveys are
influenced by a variety of factors. For questions about service quality, residents' expectations for

service quality playa role as well as the "objective" quality of the service provided, the way the
resident perceives the entire community (that is, the context in which the service is provided), the
scale on which the resident is asked to record his or her opinion and, of course, the opinion, itself,
that a resident holds about the service. Similarly a resident's report of certain behaviors is colored
by what he or she believes is the socially desirable response (e.g., reporting tolerant behaviors
toward "oppressed groups," likelihood of voting a tax increase for services to poor people, use of
alternative modes of travel to work besides the single occupancy vehicle), his or her memory of the
actual behavior (if it is not a question speculating about future actions, like a vote), his or her
confidence that he or she can be honest without suffering any negative consequences (thus the
need for anonymity) as well as the actual behavior itself.
How closely survey results come to recording the way a person really feels or behaves often is
measured by the coincidence of reported behavior with observed current behavior (e.g., driving
habits), reported intentions to behave with observed future behavior (e.g., voting choices) or
reported opinions about current community quality with objective characteristics of the community
(e.g., feelings of safety correlated with rates of crime). There is a body of scientific literature that has
investigated the relationship between reported behaviors and actual behaviors. Well-conducted
surveys, by and large, do capture true respondent behaviors or intentions to act with great
accuracy. Predictions of voting outcomes tend to be quite accurate using survey research, as do
reported behaviors that are not about highly sensitive issues (e.g., family abuse or other illegal or
morally sanctioned activities). For self-reports about highly sensitive issues, statistical adjustments
can be made to correct for the respondents' tendency to report what they think the "correct"
response should be.
Research on the correlation of resident opinion about service quality and "objective" ratings of
service quality tend to be ambiguous, some showing stronger relationships than others. NRC's own
research has demonstrated that residents who report the lowest ratings of street repair live in
communities with objectively worse street conditions than those who report high ratings of street
repair (based on road quality, delay in street repair, number of road repair employees). Similarly,
the lowest rated fire services appear to be "objectively" worse than the highest rated fire services
(expenditures per capita, response time, "professional" status of firefighters, breadth of services and
training provided). Whether some research confirms or disconfirms that relationship between what
residents think about a community and what can be seen "objectively" in a community, NRC has
argued that resident opinion is a perspective that cannot be ignored by government administrators.
NRC principals have written, "If you collect trash three times a day but residents think that your
trash haul is lousy, you still have a problem."
SURVEY SAMPLING
"Sampling" refers to the method by which survey recipients were chosen. All households within the
City of Clearwater were eligible to participate in the survey; 3,000 were selected to receive the
survey. These 3,000 households were randomly selected from a comprehensive list of all housing
units within the City of Clearwater boundaries. The basis of the list of all housing units was a
United States Postal Service listing of housing units within zip codes. Since some of the zip codes
that serve the City of Clearwater households may also serve addresses that lie outside of the
jurisdiction, the exact geographic location of each housing unit was compared to jurisdiction
boundaries, using the most current municipal boundary file (updated on a quarterly basis), and
addresses located outside of the City of Clearwater boundaries were removed from consideration.

City of Clearwater I 2008
To choose the 3,000 survey recipients, a systematic sampling method was applied to the list of
households known to be within the City of Clearwater. Systematic sampling is a procedure
whereby a complete list of all possible items is culled, selecting every Nth one until the appropriate
amount of items is selected. Multi-family housing units were over sampled as residents of this type
of housing typically respond at lower rates to surveys than do those in single-family housing units.
An individual within each household was selected using the birthday method. The birthday method
selects a person within the household by asking the "person whose birthday has most recently
passed" to complete the questionnaire. The underlying assumption in this method is that day of
birth has no relationship to the way people respond to surveys. This instruction was contained in
the cover letter accompanying the questionnaire.
SURVEY ADMINISTRATION
Selected households received three mailings, one week apart, beginning July 2008. The first
mailing was a prenotification postcard (in English and Spanish) announcing the upcoming survey.
The next mailing contained a letter from the city manager inviting the household to participate, a
questionnaire and a postage-paid return envelope. The final mailing contained a reminder letter,
another survey and a postage-paid return envelope. The second cover letter asked those who had
not completed the survey to do so and those who have already done so to refrain from turning in
another survey. If desired, respondents could call a toll-free telephone number at the city and
request a copy of the survey in Spanish. Completed surveys were collected over the following six
weeks.
SURVEY RESPONSE RATE AND CONFIDENCE INTERVALS
Five-hundred-and-four of the surveys mailed were returned because the housing unit was vacant or
the postal service was unable to deliver the survey as addressed. Of the 2,496 households receiving
the survey mailings, 735 completed the survey, providing a response rate of 29%. In general,
response rates obtained on local government resident surveys range from 25% to 40%.
In theory, in 95 cases out of 100, the results based on the number of responses obtained will differ
by no more than four percentage points in either direction from what would have been obtained
had responses been collected from all City of Clearwater adults. This difference from the presumed
population finding is referred to as the sampling error (or the "margin of error" or 95% confidence
interval"). For subgroups of responses, the margin of sampling error is larger. In addition to
sampling error, the practical difficulties of conducting any survey of the public may introduce other
sources of error. For example, the failure of some of the selected adults to participate in the sample
or the difficulty of including all sectors of the population, such as residents of some institutions or
group residences, may lead to somewhat different results.
SURVEY PROCESSING (DATA ENTRY)
Completed surveys received by NRC were assigned a unique identification number. Additionally,
each survey was reviewed and "cleaned" as necessary. For example, a question may have asked a
respondent to pick two items out of a list of five, but the respondent checked three; NRC staff
would choose randomly two of the three selected items to be coded in the dataset.
Once all surveys were assigned a unique identification number, they were entered into an
electronic dataset. This dataset was subject to a data entry protocol of "key and verify," in which
survey data were entered twice into an electronic dataset and then compared. Discrepancies were

evaluated against the original survey form and corrected. Range checks as well as other forms of
quality control were also performed.
SURVEY DATA WEIGHTING
The demographic characteristics of the survey sample were compared to those found in the 2000
Census and 2006 American Community Survey estimates and other population norms for adults in
the City. Sample results were weighted using the population norms to reflect the appropriate
percent of those residents. Other discrepancies between the whole population and the sample were
also aided by the weighting due to the intercorrelation of many socioeconomic characteristics.
The variables used for weighting were housing tenure (rent or own), race (white or not white), age
and gender. This decision was based on:
The disparity between the survey respondent characteristics and the population norms for these
variables
The saliency of these variables in detecting differences of opinion among subgroups
The importance to the community of correct ethnic representation
The historical use of the variables and the desirability of consistently representing different
groups over the years
The primary objective of weighting survey data is to make the survey sample reflective of the larger
population of the community. This is done by: 1) reviewing the sample demographics and
comparing them to the population norms from the most recent Census or other sources and 2)
comparing the responses to different questions for demographic subgroups. The demographic
characteristics that are least similar to the Census and yield the most different results are the best
candidates for data weighting. A third criterion sometimes used is the importance that the
community places on a specific variable. For example, if a jurisdiction feels that accurate race
representation is key to staff and public acceptance of the study results, additional consideration
will be given in the weighting process to adjusting the race variable.
A special software program using mathematical algorithms is used to calculate the appropriate
weights. A limitation of data weighting is that only 2-3 demographic variables can be adjusted in a
single study. Several different weighting "schemes" are tested to ensure the best fit for the data.
The process actually begins at the point of sampling. Knowing that residents in single family
dwellings are more likely to respond to a mail survey, NRC oversamples residents of multi-family
dwellings to ensure their proper representation in the sample data. Rather than giving all residents
an equal chance of receiving the survey, this is systematic, stratified sampling, which gives each
resident of the jurisdiction a known chance of receiving the survey (and apartment dwellers, for
example, a greater chance than single family home dwellers). As a consequence, results must be
weighted to recapture the proper representation of apartment dwellers.
The results of the weighting scheme are presented in the table on the following page.

SURVEY DATA ANALYSIS AND REPORTING
The survey dataset was analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS).
Frequency distributions were presented in the body of the report.
Use of the "Excellent, Good, Fair, Poor" Response Scale
The scale on which respondents are asked to record their opinions about service and community
quality is "excellent," "good," "fair" or "poor" (EGFP). This scale has important advantages over
other scale possibilities (very good to very bad; very satisfied to very dissatisfied; strongly agree to
strongly disagree, as examples). EGFP is used by the plurality of jurisdictions conducting citizen
surveys across the U.S. The advantage of familiarity was one that NRC did not want to dismiss
when crafting The National Citizen SurveyTM questionnaire, because elected officials, staff and
residents already are acquainted with opinion surveys measured this way. EGFP also has the
advantage of offering three positive options, rather than only two, over which a resident can offer
an opinion. While symmetrical scales often are the right choice in other measurement tasks, NRC
has found that ratings of almost every local government service in almost every jurisdiction tend, on
average, to be positive (that is, above the scale midpoint). Therefore, to permit finer distinctions
among positively rated services, EGFP offers three options across which to spread those ratings.
EGFP is more neutral because it requires no positive statement of service quality to judge (as agree-
disagree scales require) and, finally, EGFP intends to measure absolute quality of service delivery or
community quality (unlike satisfaction scales which ignore residents' perceptions of quality in favor
of their report on the acceptability of the level of service offered).
"Don't Know" Responses
On many of the questions in the survey respondents may answer "don't know." The proportion of
respondents giving this reply is shown in the full set of responses included in Appendix A.
However, these responses have been removed from the analyses presented in the body of the
report. In other words, the tables and graphs display the responses from respondents who had an
opinion about a specific item.
Benchmark Comparisons
NRC has been leading the strategic use of surveys for local governments since 1991, when the
principals of the company wrote the first edition of what became the classic text on citizen
surveying. In Citizen Surveys: how to do theml how to use theml what they mean, published by
ICMA, not only were the principles for quality survey methods articulated, but both the idea of
benchmark data for citizen opinion and the method for gathering benchmark data were pioneered.
The argument for benchmarks was called "In Search of Standards." "What has been missing from a
local government's analysis of its survey results is the context that school administrators can supply
when they tell parents how an 80 percent score on the social studies test compares to test results
from other school systems..."
NRC's database of comparative resident opinion is comprised of resident perspectives gathered in
citizen surveys from approximately 500 jurisdictions whose residents evaluated local government
services. Conducted with typically no fewer than 400 residents in each jurisdiction, opinions are
intended to represent over 30 million Americans. NRC has innovated a method for quantitatively
integrating the results of surveys that conducted by NRC with those that others have conducted.
The integration methods have been thoroughly described not only in the Citizen Surveys book, but
The National Citizen SurveyTM
82
Item # 11
Attachment number 3
Page 85 of 104
City of Clearwater I 2008
also in Public Administration Review, Journal of Policy Analysis and Management. Scholars who
specialize in the analysis of citizen surveys regularly have relied on this work (e.g., Kelly, j. &
Swindell, D. (2002). Service quality variation across urban space: First steps towards a model of
citizen satisfaction. Journal of Urban Affairs, 24, 271-288.; Van Ryzin, G., Muzzio, D., Immerwahr,
S., Gulick, L. & Martinez, E. (2004). Drivers and consequences of citizen satisfaction: An
application of the American Customer Satisfaction Index Model to New York City, Public
Administration Review, 64, 331- 341). The method described in those publications is refined
regularly and statistically tested on a growing number of citizen surveys in NRC's proprietary
databases. NRC's work on calculating national benchmarks for resident opinions about service
delivery and quality of life won the Samuel C. May award for research excellence from the Western
Governmental Research Association.
The Role of Comparisons
Benchmark comparisons are used for performance measurement. jurisdictions use the comparative
information to help interpret their own citizen survey results, to create or revise community plans,
to evaluate the success of policy or budget decisions, to measure local government performance.
Taking the pulse of the community has little meaning without knowing what pulse rate is too high
and what is too low. When surveys of service satisfaction turn up "good" citizen evaluations,
jurisdictions need to know how others rate their services to understand if "good" is good enough.
Furthermore, in the absence of national or peer community comparisons, a jurisdiction is left with
comparing its fire protection rating to its street maintenance rating. That comparison is unfair.
Streets always lose to fire. More important and harder questions need to be asked; for example,
how do residents' ratings of fire service compare to opinions about fire service in other
communities?
A police department that provides the fastest and most efficient service-one that closes most of its
cases, solves most of its crimes and keeps the crime rate low-still has a problem to fix if the
residents in the community it intends to protect believe services are not very good compared to
ratings given by residents to their own objectively "worse" departments. The benchmark data can
help that police department - or any department - to understand how well citizens think it is
doing. Without the comparative data, it would be like bowling in a tournament without knowing
what the other teams are scoring. NRC recommends that citizen opinion be used in conjunction
with other sources of data about budget, personnel and politics to help managers know how to
respond to comparative results.
jurisdictions in the benchmark database are distributed geographically across the country and range
from small to large in population size. Most commonly, comparisons are made to the entire
database. Comparisons may also be made to subsets of jurisdictions (for example, within a given
region or population category). Despite the differences in jurisdiction characteristics, all are in the
business of providing local government services to residents. Though individual jurisdiction
circumstances, resources and practices vary, the objective in every community is to provide
services that are so timely, tailored and effective that residents conclude the services are of the
highest quality. High ratings in any jurisdiction, like SAT scores in any teen household, bring pride
and a sense of accomplishment.
Comparison of Clearwater to the Benchmark Database
The City of Clearwater chose to have comparisons made to the entire database and a subset of
similar jurisdictions from the database (jurisdictions with a population of at least 64,000 but less
than 150,000). A benchmark comparison (the average rating from all the comparison jurisdictions

where a similar question was asked) has been provided when a similar question on the City of
Clearwater Survey was included in NRC's database and there were at least five jurisdictions in
which the question was asked. For most questions compared to the entire dataset, there were more
than 100 jurisdictions included in the benchmark comparison.
Where comparisons are available, Clearwater results are noted as being "above" the benchmark,
"below" the benchmark or "similar to" the benchmark. This evaluation of "above," "below" or
"similar to" comes from a statistical comparison of Clearwater's rating to the benchmark (the rating
from all the comparison jurisdictions where a similar question was asked).

COMPARISON DATA
NRC's database of comparative resident opinion is comprised of resident perspectives gathered in
citizen surveys from approximately 500 jurisdictions whose residents evaluated local government
services and gave their opinion about the quality of community life. The City of Clearwater chose
to have comparisons made to the entire database and a subset of similar jurisdictions from the
database (jurisdictions with populations between 64,000 people 150,000 people]. A benchmark
comparison (the average rating from all the comparison jurisdictions where a similar question was
asked) has been provided when a similar question on the City of Clearwater Survey was included in
NRC's database and there were at least five jurisdictions in which the question was asked. For most
questions compared to the entire dataset, there were more than 100 jurisdictions included in the
benchmark comparison.
The jurisdictions in the database represent a wide geographic and population range as shown in the
table below.

PUTTING EVALUATIONS ONTO THE 1 OO-POINT SCALE
Although responses to many of the evaluative questions were made on a 4 point scale with 1
representing the best rating and 4 the worst, the benchmarks are reported on a common scale
where 0 is the worst possible rating and 100 is the best possible rating. The 95 percent confidence
interval around an average score on the 1 OO-point scale is no greater than plus or minus two points
based on all respondents.
The 1 OO-point scale is not a percent. It is a conversion of responses to an average rating. Each
response option is assigned a value that is used in calculating the average score. For example,
"excellent" = 100, "good" = 67, "fai r" = 33 and "poor" = O. If everyone reported" excellent," then the
average rating would be 1 00 on the 1 OO-point scale. Likewise, if all respondents gave a "poor", the
result would be 0 on the 1 OO-point scale. If half the respondents gave a score of "excellent" and
half gave a score of "poor," the average would be in the middle of the scale (like the center post of
a teeter totter) between "fair" and "good." An example of how to convert survey frequencies into an
average rating appears below.
Example of Converting Responses to the 1 DO-point Scale
= 36 + (1 00-5) =
Good 42% =42+(100-5)= 44% 67 = 44 % x 67 =
Fair 12% = 12 + (1 00-5) = 13% 33 =13%x33 =
Poor 5% = 5 + (1 00-5) = 5% 0 =5% x 0 =

INTERPRETING THE RESULTS
Average ratings are compared when similar questions are included in NRC's database, and there
are at least five jurisdictions in which the question was asked. Where comparisons are available,
three numbers are provided in the table. The first column is your jurisdiction's rating on the 100-
point scale. The second column is the rank assigned to your jurisdiction's rating among
jurisdictions where a similar question was asked. The third column is the number of jurisdictions
that asked a similar question. The fourth column shows the benchmark, followed by a comparison
of your jurisdiction's average rating (column one) to this benchmark.
The comparison: "above," "below" or "similar" comes from a statistical comparison of your
jurisdiction's rating to the benchmark (the average rating from all the comparison jurisdictions
where a similar question was asked). Differences of more than two points on the 1 OO-point scale
between your jurisdiction's ratings and the average based on the appropriate comparisons from the
database are considered "statistically significant," and thus are marked as "above" or "below" the
benchmark. When differences between your jurisdiction's ratings and the benchmarks are two
points or fewer, they are marked as "similar to" the benchmark.
This report contains benchmarks at the national level, as well as for communities with populations
of at least 64,000 but less than 150,000 people.

ABOUT THE NATIONAL CITIZEN SURVEY"
The National Citizen surveyTM (The NCsTM) is a collaborative effort between National Research
Center, Inc. (NRC) and the International City/County Management Association (ICMA).
The survey and its administration are standardized to assure high quality survey methods and
comparable results across The National Citizen surveyTM jurisdictions. Participating households are
selected at random and the household member who responds is selected without bias. Multiple
mailings give each household more than one chance to participate with self-addressed and postage
paid envelopes. Results are statistically weighted to reflect the proper demographic composition of
the entire community.
The National Citizen surveyTM customized for this jurisdiction was developed in close cooperation
with local jurisdiction staff. The City of Clearwater staff selected items from a menu of questions
about services and community problems; they defined the jurisdiction boundaries NRC used for
sampling; and they provided the appropriate letterhead and signatures for mailings. City of
Clearwater staff also determined local interest in a variety of add-on options to The National Citizen
surveyTM Basic Service.

4WDON'T KNOW4t RESPONSES
On many of the questions in the survey respondents may answer "don't know." The proportion of
respondents giving this reply is shown in the full set of responses included in Appendix A.
However, these responses have been removed from the analyses presented in the body of the
report. In other words, the tables and graphs display the responses from respondents who had an
opinion about a specific item.
UNDERSTANDING THE TABLES
In this report, comparisons between demographic subgroups are shown. For most of the questions,
we have shown only one number for each question. We have summarized responses to show only
the proportion of respondents giving a certain answer; for example, the percent of respondents who
rated the quality of life as "excellent" or "good", or the percent of respondents who felt the rate of
growth was "about right."
ANOVA and chi-square tests of significance were applied to these comparisons of survey questions
by demographic subgroups. A "p-value" of 0.05 or less indicates that there is less than a 5%
probability that differences observed between subgroups are due to chance; or in other words, a
greater than 95% probability that the differences observed are "rea!." Where differences were
statistically significant, they are marked in gray.
The 95 percent confidence level for this survey is generally no greater than plus or minus four
percentage points around any given percent reported for the entire sample (735 completed
surveys). For each District (1,2, 3, 4 or 5), the margin of error rises to approximately + or - 9%
since sample sizes were approximately 191 for District 1, 115 for District 2, 151 for District 3, 140
for District 4 and 138 for District 5.
Districts generally correspond to the following areas and zip codes:
District 1 - Countryside (33763, 33761)
District 2 - Beaches (33767, some 33786)
District 3 - Downtown (33755, 33756)
District 4 - Central/Morningside (33764, 33765)
District 5 - East (33759)

ABOUT THE NATIONAL CITIZEN SURVEY"
The National Citizen surveyTM (The NCsTM) is a collaborative effort between National Research
Center, Inc. (NRC) and the International City/County Management Association (ICMA).
The survey and its administration are standardized to assure high quality survey methods and
comparable results across The National Citizen surveyTM jurisdictions. Participating households are
selected at random and the household member who responds is selected without bias. Multiple
mailings give each household more than one chance to participate with self-addressed and postage
paid envelopes. Results are statistically weighted to reflect the proper demographic composition of
the entire community.
The National Citizen surveyTM customized for this jurisdiction was developed in close cooperation
with local jurisdiction staff. The City of Clearwater staff selected items from a menu of questions
about services and community problems; they defined the jurisdiction boundaries NRC used for
sampling; and they provided the appropriate letterhead and signatures for mailings. City of
Clearwater staff also determined local interest in a variety of add-on options to The National Citizen
surveyTM Basic Service.
One of the add-on options that Clearwater chose was to have crosstabulations of evaluative
questions 1-18 by demographic questions D3 (length of residency), D7 (presence of children), D12
(respondent age) and D13 (respondent gender).

4WDON'T KNOW4t RESPONSES
On many of the questions in the survey respondents may answer "don't know." The proportion of
respondents giving this reply is shown in the full set of responses included in Appendix A.
However, these responses have been removed from the analyses presented in the body of the
report. In other words, the tables and graphs display the responses from respondents who had an
opinion about a specific item.
UNDERSTANDING THE TABLES
In this report, comparisons between demographic subgroups are shown. For most of the questions,
we have shown only one number for each question. We have summarized responses to show only
the proportion of respondents giving a certain answer; for example, the percent of respondents who
rated the quality of life as "excellent" or "good", or the percent of respondents who felt the rate of
growth was "about right."
ANOVA and chi-square tests of significance were applied to these comparisons of survey questions
by demographic subgroups. A "p-value" of 0.05 or less indicates that there is less than a 5%
probability that differences observed between subgroups are due to chance; or in other words, a
greater than 95% probability that the differences observed are "rea!." Where differences were
statistically significant, they are marked in gray.

SUBJECT I RECOMMENDATION:
A ward a contract to Honeywell Building Solutions of Orlando, FL for the installation and service of energy saving equipment in the
Long Center for $2,445,000 in accordance with Sec, 2,564(1)(d), Code of Ordinances - Other governmental bid and authorize
appropriate officials to execute same, (consent)
SUMMARY:
The contract and purchase of this equipment is based on the State of Florida Energy Savings Contract 973-320-08-1,
We have conducted audits on four City buildings with high utility costs to determine areas that replacement of higher efficiency
equipment could result in reduced energy costs, The Long Center was one of the buildings examined and selected as the pilot building
to review and create the potential savings under this contract. All electrical and gas equipment including air conditioners, lights, water
heaters and exhaust systems were evaluated, The dehumidification exhaust system in the large pool area was removed several years ago
due to major breakdown of components, Most of the 8 air conditioning units are near the end of their life expectancy, The proposal from
Honeywell includes the following tasks:
Remove the 8 existing AIC roof top units and replace with high efficiency units,
Remove 2 existing air units, 5 existing exhaust fans and associated duct from the Aquatic area and install one high efficiency roof unit
for the upper viewing area of the natatorium and one Dehumidification Unit that will serve the pool area, This unit is very critical to
extending the life of components and paint in the pool area,

ENERGY GUARANTEE
1. DEFINITIONS
When used in this Agreement, the following capitalized words shall have the meanings ascribed to them below:
"Baseline" is the description outlined in Attachment G, that defines the Baseline Usage Baseline Usage Unit Costs
and facilities, systems, or equipment operations and characteristics, and environmental conditions that are to be used
as the benchmark for determining cost avoidance.
"Baseline Period" is the period of time (specified in Section I of Attachment G) coordinated with the Baseline
Usage for the purpose of utility bill analysis (see "Option C") to allow the comparison of a Guarantee Year against a
Baseline. The Baseline Period may not always be one contiguous element of time and may be different from a 365-
day annual period. Baseline information from non-contiguous elements of time may be normalized and assigned to
a specified Baseline Period.
"Baseline Usage or Demand" the calculated or measured energy usage (demand) by a piece of equipment or a site
prior to the implementation of the ECMs. Baseline physical conditions, such as equipment counts, nameplate data,
and control strategies, will typically be determined through surveys, inspections, and/or metering at the site.
"Baseyear or Base Year" is equivalent to "Baseline" and may not always be one contiguous element of time and
may be different from a 365-day annual period.
"Construction Phase or Period" The time period between the start of the project installation and the date of Final
Project Acceptance.
"Construction Savings Period" The time period(s) between the completion of installation and start of providing
substantial benefit to the CUSTOMER for each single specific ECM vs. the time of Final Project Acceptance.
"Commissioning Phase or Period" The phase, before Final Project Acceptance, when (1) the functional ability of
the installed equipment or systems, and/or modified equipment or systems to operate in conformity with the design
intent is documented and verified and (2) the potential-to-save of said equipment and systems is documented and
verified for the first time.
"Cost Adjustments" means for each year following the first year of the Support Services, HONEYWELL, may, in
its sole discretion increase the annual Operational Cost Savings in an amount matching the adjustment to the
Support Services fee.
"Cost Avoidance" means the difference between the actual cost incurred during a selected time period versus what
the cost would have been had the cost avoidance strategy not been implemented.
"Covered Systems and Equipment" as used in this Attachment F means the systems and equipment identified in
Attachment A (Scope of Work) and Attachment D (Support Services).
"Energy and Operational Cost Avoidance Guarantee Practices" are those practices identified in Attachment G,
intended to achieve avoided costs in energy and/or operating expenses.
"Energy Auditing" means the act of Measurement and Verification (M& V) to determine the Guarantee Savings.
"Energy Costs" may include the cost of electricity and fuels to operate HV AC equipment, facility mechanical and
lighting systems, and energy management systems, and the cost of water and sewer usage, as applicable.
"ECM" The Energy Conservation Measure (ECM) is the installation of equipment or systems, or modification of
equipment or systems as described in Attachment A, for the purpose of reducing utility (energy, water, etc.)
consumption and demand and costs and/or non-utility (O&M, operational) costs.
"Facilities" shall mean those buildings where the energy and operational cost savings will be realized.
"F.E.M.P." shall mean the Federal Energy Management Program of the U.S. Department of Energy and its
Measurement and Verification Guidelines for Federal Energy Projects (DOE/GO-102000-0960, September 2000).
The F.E.M.P. guidelines classify measurement & verification approaches as Option A, Option B, Option C, and
Option D. The F.E.M.P. Guideline was developed based on the International Performance MeasurefMPn ~~ 4
Attachment F (Form Rev. 10/06 - Modified for Florida Statutes) Page 10f9
Attachment number 1
Page 31 of 78
Verification Protocol (LP.M.V.P.). The focus of the F.E.M.P. M&V Guidelines is on choosing the M&V option
and method most appropriate for specific projects.
"Financing Document" refers to that document executed between CUSTOMER and a third-party financing entity
providing for payments from CUSTOMER to third-party financing entity.
"Final Project Acceptance" refers to CUSTOMER acceptance of the installation of the ECMs as described in
Attachment A.
"First Guarantee Year" is defined as the period beginning on the first (1st) day of the month following the date of
Final Project Acceptance of the Work installed and ending on the day prior to the first (1st) anniversary thereof.
"Guarantee Period" is defined as the period beginning on the first (1st) day of the First Guarantee Year and
ending on the last day of the final Guarantee Year. Also known as the "Measurement and Verification Phase" or
"Performance Period".
"Guarantee Year" is defined as the First Guarantee Year and each of the successive twelve (12) month periods
commencing on the anniversary of the commencement of the First Guarantee Year throughout the Term of this
Agreement.
"Guaranteed Savings" is defined as the amount of avoided Energy and Operational Costs necessary to pay for the
cost of the Work and Support Services incurred by CUSTOMER in each Guarantee Y ear [as identified in Section
3.1 hereof].
"I.P.M.V.P." International Performance Measurement and Verification Protocol (July 1997) provides an overview
of current best practice techniques available for measurement & verification of performance contracts. This
document is the basis for the F.E.M.P. protocol. The techniques are classified as Option A, Option B, Option C,
and Option D.
"Measurement and Verification Plan" (M&V Plan) is defined as the plan providing details on how the Guarantee
Savings will be verified.
"Measurement and Verification Phase or Period" The specific time period designated to demonstrate the savings
and/or performance achieved from the energy retrofit. The savings will be verified based on the Measurement and
Verification procedures as outlined in Attachment G. Also known as the "Guarantee Period" or "Performance
Period" .
"Operational Costs" commonly referred to as O&M costs, shall include the cost of operating and maintaining the
Facilities, such as, but not limited to, the cost of inside and outside labor to repair and maintain affected systems and
equipment, the cost of custodial supplies, the cost of replacement parts, the cost of deferred maintenance, the cost of
lamp and ballast disposal, and the cost of new capital equipment.
"Option A" is a verification approach that is designed for projects in which the potential to perform needs to be
verified, but the actual on-going, year over year performance can be stipulated based on the results of the "potential
to perform and generate Savings" verification and engineering calculations. Option A involves procedures for
verifying that:
. Baseline conditions have been properly defmed; and
. The equipment and/or systems that were contracted to be installed have been installed; and
. The installed equipment components or systems, at the end of the construction period, meet the specifications of the
contract in terms of quantity, quality, and rating; and
. The installed equipment is operating and performing in accordance with the specifications in the contract and meeting all
functional tests.
. The "potential to perform and generate Savings" may involve pre-retrofit and post-retrofit measurements or
may be based on manufacturer and vendor data.
"Option B" is for projects in which the potential to perform and generate Savings needs to be verified; and actual
performance needs to be measured (verified). Option B involves procedures for verifying the same items as Option
Attachment F (Form Rev. 10/06 - Modified for Florida Statutes)
Item tf 14
Page 2 of9
Attachment number 1
Page 32 of 78
A plus verifying actual performance of equipment component or system. Performance verification techniques
involve engineering calculations with metering and monitoring for verifying that:
. The installed equipment components or systems, each year of the performance period, meet the specifications of the
contract in terms of quantity, quality and rating, and operation and functional performance.
"Option C" is also for projects in which the potential to perform needs to be verified and actual performance
during the term of the contract needs to be verified. Option C involves procedures for verifying the same items as
Option A plus verifying achieved energy savings during the term of the contract using whole building utility meter
analysis performance verification techniques.
"Option D" is a verification technique where calibrated simulations of the baseline energy use and/or calibrated
simulations of the post-installation energy consumption are used to measure Savings from the Energy Conservation
Measures. Option D can involve measurements of energy use both before and after the Retrofit for specific
equipment or energy end use as needed to calibrate the simulation program. Periodic inspections of the equipment
may also be warranted. Energy consumption is calculated by developing calibrated hourly simulation models of
whole-building energy use, or equipment sub-systems in the baseline mode and in the post-installation mode and
comparing the simulated annual differences for either an average year or for conditions that correspond to the
specific year during either the baseline or post-installation period.
"Performance Phase or Period" Also know as the "Guarantee Period" or "Measurement and Verification Period".
"Potential-to-Save" or "Potential-to-Perform" by an ECM is satisfied when a measure is properly installed and
has the potential to generate predicted levels of energy cost avoidance. Verification of an ECM's "potential-to-save"
is satisfied upon CUSTOMER's signing of Attachment J or an equivalent Delivery and Acceptance Certificate.
Also see "Option A".
"Retrofit" is the work provided by HONEYWELL as defined by the "ECMs."
"Retrofit and Support Costs" are the sum of the (i) the financing payments required to be made by CUSTOMER
pursuant to the Financing Document; and (ii) the payments required to be made by CUSTOMER for Support
Services.
"Retrofit Isolation Method (RIM) or Approach" is an M&V approach that verifies the Guarantee Savings using
techniques that isolate the energy use of the ECM and affected systems separate from the energy use of the rest of
the facility. This method is used to mitigate the interactive energy effects of changes made to the facility outside of
HONEYWELL's control.
"Savings" is defined as avoided, defrayed, or reallocated costs.
"Support Services" is defined as the services to be provided by HONEYWELL and described in Attachment D.
"Term" shall have the meaning as defined in Section 2 hereof.
"Total Guarantee Year Savings" is defined as the summation of avoided Energy and Operational Costs realized
by Facilities in each Guarantee Year as a result of the Retrofit and Support Services provided by HONEYWELL as
well as Excess Savings, if any, carried forward from previous years.
2. TERM AND TERMINATION
2.1 Guarantee Term. The Term of this Guarantee Period shall commence on the first (lst) day of the month
following the date of Final Project Acceptance of the Work installed pursuant to this Agreement and shall terminate
at the end of the Guarantee Period unless terminated earlier as provided for herein. The Term of this Guarantee
Period is defined in Section I of Attachment G.
2.2 Guarantee Termination. Given that both parties recognize that the energy and operational savings can
only be achieved if the systems and equipment are properly maintained throughout the Guarantee Term, Customer
agrees that the savings guarantee set forth herein is dependent upon the continuation of any existing Support
Services Agreements by HONEYWELL or by OTHERS. Customer shall continue to contract with Honeywell for
the Energy Auditing and Analysis Services set forth in this Agreement for the entire term of the savings guarantee
term. Should this Agreement, or other existing Agreements covering systems and equipment not coverfi%ffi Wi~ 4

in part for any reason prior to the end of the Term, the Guarantee for the Guarantee Year in which such termination
becomes effective shall be prorated as of the effective date of such termination, with a reasonable adjustment for
seasonal fluctuations in Energy and Operational Costs, and the Guarantee for all subsequent Guarantee Years shall
be null and void.
3. SAVINGS GUARANTEE
3.1 Guarantee Savin!!:s. HONEYWELL guarantees to CUSTOMER that the identified Facilities will realize
the total energy and operational cost avoidance through the combined value of all ECMs over the Term of the
contract as defined in Section I of Attachment G. In no event shall the savings guarantee provided herein exceed
the total installation, support services, and financing costs for the Work under this Agreement.
3.1.1 Additional Savin!!:s Before Final Proiect Acceptance. All energy and operational cost avoidance
realized by CUSTOMER that result from activities undertaken by HONEYWELL prior to Final Project Acceptance,
including any utility rebates or other incentives earned as a direct result of the installed Energy Conservation
Measures or Support Services provided by HONEYWELL, will be applied toward the Guaranteed Savings for the
First Guarantee Year.
3.1.2 Additional Savin!!:s After Final Proiect Acceptance. Additional energy and/or operational cost
avoidance, including any utility rebates or other incentives, that can be demonstrated, or earned, as a result of
HONEYWELL's efforts that result in no additional costs to CUSTOMER beyond the costs identified in this
Agreement will be included in the guarantee savings reconciliation report for the applicable Guarantee Year(s).
3.1.3 Cumulation of Savin!!:s. The Guaranteed Savings in each Guarantee Year are considered satisfied if the
Total Guarantee Year Savings for such Guarantee Year equals or exceeds the Retrofit and Support Costs for such
Guarantee Year, or the amount identified in Section I of Attachment G hereto.
3.1.4 Excess Savin!!:s. In the event that the Total Guarantee Year Savings in any Guarantee year exceed the
Guaranteed Savings required for that Guarantee Year, such Excess Savings shall not be carried forward and applied
against Guaranteed Savings shortfalls in any future Guarantee Year. In the event HONEYWELL has previously
paid CUSTOMER for a Guaranteed Savings shortfall in a past Guarantee Year, pursuant to Section 3.1.5, then
Excess Savings in current Guarantee Year shall be billed to CUSTOMER (but only up to any amounts previously
paid by HONEYWELL for a shortfall and CUSTOMER shall pay HONEYWELL within thirty (30) days after
receipt of such bill.
3.1.5 Savin!!:s Shortfalls. In the event that the Total Guarantee Year Savings in any Guarantee Year is less than
the Guaranteed Savings required for that Guarantee Year, after giving credit for any Excess Savings carried forward
from previous Guarantee Years pursuant to Section 3.1.4, HONEYWELL shall, upon receipt of written demand
from CUSTOMER, compensate CUSTOMER the amount of any such shortfall, in such form as agreed to by the
parties, limited by the value of the guarantee, within forty-five (45) days. Resulting compensation shall be
HONEYWELL's sole liability for any shortfall in the Guaranteed Savings.
3.1.6 A!!:!!:re!!:ation of Savin!!:s. The parties mutually agree that the Guarantee Savings for this Agreement and
the Guarantee Savings for all previous active Energy and Operational Guaranteed Cost Avoidance projects for this
CUSTOMER shall be combined each year until the end of the original guarantee term for each project. Throughout
the duration of the term for the each specific phase the total savings will be utilized as an aggregate in satisfying the
sum of the respective guarantees.
3.2 Savin!!:s Reconciliation Documentation. HONEYWELL will provide CUSTOMER with a guarantee
savings reconciliation report after each Guarantee Year. CUSTOMER will assist HONEYWELL in generating the
savings reconciliation report by providing HONEYWELL with copies of all bills pertaining to Energy Costs within
two (2) weeks following the CUSTOMER's receipt thereof, together with access to relevant records relating to such
Energy Costs. CUSTOMER will also assist HONEYWELL by permitting access to any maintenance records,
drawings, or other data deemed necessary by HONEYWELL to generate the said report. Data and calculations
utilized by HONEYWELL in the preparation of its guarantee cost savings reconciliation report will be made
available to CUSTOMER, along with such explanations and clarifications as CUSTOMER may reasonably request.
3.2.1 Acceptance of Guarantee Reconciliation. At the end of each Guarantee Year CUSTOMER will have
forty-five (45) days to review the guarantee savings reconciliation report and provide written notice to
em tf 14
Attachment F (Form Rev. 10/06 - Modified for Florida Statutes) Page 40f9
Attachment number 1
Page 34 of 78
HONEYWELL of non-acceptance of the Guarantee Savings for that Guarantee Year. Failure to provide written
notice within forty-five (45) days of the receipt of the guarantee savings reconciliation report will deem it accepted
by CUSTOMER.
3.2.2 Guarantee Savin!!:s Reconciliation. Guarantee Savings will be determined in accordance with the
methodology(s), operating parameters, formulas, and constants as described below and/or defined in Attachment G
and/or additional methodologies defined by HONEYWELL that may be negotiated with CUSTOMER at any time.
For reconciliation of Guarantee Savings employing the method of utility bill analysis consistent with F.E.M.P.
Option C:
Energy usage for the Facilities for such Guarantee Year will be summarized and compared with the adjusted
Baseline Period energy usage for the Facilities through the use of energy accounting software. The difference
between the adjusted Baseline Period energy usage and the Guarantee Year energy usage will be the Energy
avoidance. The difference between the adjusted Baseline Period energy usage multiplied by the applicable energy
rate as defined in Attachment G, and the Guarantee Year energy usage multiplied by the applicable energy rate as
defined in Attachment G, will be used to calculate the Energy Cost avoidance. Energy Cost avoidance may also
include, but are not limited to, Savings from demand charges, power factor correction, taxes, ratchet charges, rate
changes and other utility tariff charges that are reduced as a result of the HONEYWELL involvement. A Baseline
will be specified (Section I of Attachment G) for the purpose of utility bill analysis.
AND/OR for those energy audits employing the method consistent with LP.M.V.P. and/or F.E.M.P. Options A
and/or B:
For each ECM, HONEYWELL will employ an M&V Plan which may be comprised of any or all of the following
elements:
1. Pre-retrofit model of energy consumption or demand
2. Post retrofit measured energy consumption
3. Post-retrofit measured demand and time-of-use
4. Post-retrofit energy and demand charges
5. Sampling plan
6. Stipulated Values
The value of the energy savings will be derived from the measured data and engineering formulae included herein,
and the applicable energy charges as defined in Attachment G. In some cases, energy usage and/or demand will be
calculated from measured variables that directly relate to energy consumption, demand or cost, such as, but not
limited to, measured flow, temperature, current, voltage, enthalpy or pressure.
AND/OR for those energy audits employing the method consistent with LP.M.V.P. and/or F.E.M.P. Option D:
For each Energy Conservation Measure, HONEYWELL will employ an M&V Plan that may be comprised of any
or all of the following elements:
1. Pre-retrofit model of energy consumption or demand
2. Post retrofit model of energy consumption or demand
3. Post retrofit measured energy consumption
4. Post-retrofit measured demand and time-of-use
5. Post-retrofit energy and demand charges
6. Sampling plan
7. Stipulated Values
The value of the energy savings will be derived from a calibrated simulation of either the whole-building or of sub-
systems in the building to determine the difference in the performance of the specific equipment being replaced.
This method may entail as needed one-time measurements of the performance of the energy consuming systems in
the building in order to calibrate the simulation model. Energy usage for the Facilities for such Guarantee Year will
be derived through the use of simulation programs.
3.3 Operational Cost Avoidance. The agreed-upon Operational Cost Avoidance as described in Attachment
G (Schedule of Savings) will be deemed realized upon execution of this Agreement and will begin to accrue on the
date of the completion and acceptance of each Retrofit improvement or on the commencement date for Support
Services (Article 6.2.3), whichever comes first. These Savings are representative of information provided by the
CUSTOMER consisting of either whole or partial budgeted operational costs and as such, it is hereby understood
Item tf 14
Page 5 of9
Attachment F (Form Rev. 10/06 - Modified for Florida Statutes)
Attachment number 1

and agreed that the CUSTOMER is wholly responsible for assuring that these budgeted Operational Costs are
accurate and achievable. Implementation of this Agreement (including, as applicable, the Support Services
Agreement) allows for the reallocation or defrayal of such budgeted Operational Costs. The CUSTOMER
acknowledges and agrees that, if it did not enter into this Agreement, it would have to take future steps to achieve
the same ends as does the work included in Attachment A of this contract, and that, in doing so, it would incur
operational costs of at least equal to the operational costs stated in Attachment G per year over the life of the
contract. The CUSTOMER agrees that, by entering into this agreement, it will avoid future operational costs in at
least this amount.
3.4 Base Year Adiustments. Baseline Period shall be adjusted to reflect: changes in occupied square footage;
changes in energy-consuming equipment, including any repairs or improvements made to the equipment as part of
this Agreement; changes in the Facilities; changes in Energy and Operational Cost Avoidance Guarantee Practices
adversely affecting energy consumption and/or demonstrated operational changes; changes in weather between the
Baseline Period and the Guarantee Year; and documented or otherwise conclusively established metering errors for
the Baseline Period and/or any Guarantee Year adversely affecting energy usage measurement.
3.4.1 Facility Operational Chanl!:es. Except in the case of emergencies, CUSTOMER agrees it will not, without
the consent of an Authorized Representative of HONEYWELL: make any significant deviations from the applicable
Energy and Operational Cost Avoidance Guarantee Practices; put any system or item of equipment in a permanent
"on" position, if the same would constitute a deviation from the applicable Energy and Operational Cost Avoidance
Guarantee Practices; or assume manual control of any energy management system or item of equipment, if the same
would constitute a deviation from the applicable Energy and Operational Cost Avoidance Guarantee Practices.
3.4.2 Hours and Practices. To achieve these energy savings, HONEYWELL and CUSTOMER agree upon the
operating practices listed in Attachment G.
3.4.3 Activities and Events Adverselv Impactinl!: Savinl!:s. CUSTOMER shall promptly notify
HONEYWELL of any activities known to CUSTOMER which adversely impact HONEYWELL's ability to realize

such adverse impact to the extent that such adverse impact is beyond HONEYWELL's reasonable control.
3.4.3.1 If for any reason any facility and/or utility meter covered under this Agreement is materially unoccupied,
closed, or discontinued, the CUSTOMER shall promptly notify HONEYWELL within fifteen (15) days of this
change. The savings will be deemed realized for such facilities or meters and the Guarantee will be adjusted
accordingly. HONEYWELL will provide written notice of such adjustment to the CUSTOMER.
3.5 Guarantee Adiustment. HONEYWELL's Guaranteed Savings obligations under this Agreement are
contingent upon: (1) CUSTOMER following the Energy and Operational Cost Avoidance Guarantee Practices set
forth herein and in Attachment G; (2) no alterations or additions being made by CUSTOMER to any of the Covered
Systems and Equipment without prior notice to and agreement by HONEYWELL; (3) CUSTOMER sending all
current utility bills to HONEYWELL within two (2) weeks after receipt by CUSTOMER, if CUSTOMER fails to
provide current utility bills for a period of time in excess of six (6) months HONEYWELL will send CUSTOMER
written notice that it must send HONEYWELL copies of the utility bills and if CUSTOMER still fails to comply
within thirty (30) days, HONEYWELL may, at its sole discretion, deem the Guarantee Savings obligation met
during that period and any successive periods, and (4) HONEYWELL's ability to render services not being
impaired by circumstances beyond its control. To the extent CUSTOMER defaults in or fails to perform fully any
of its obligations under this Agreement, HONEYWELL may, in its sole discretion, adjust its Guaranteed Savings
obligation; provided, however, that no adjustment hereunder shall be effective unless HONEYWELL has first
provided CUSTOMER with written notice of CUSTOMER's default(s) or failure(s) to perform and CUSTOMER
has failed to cure its default(s) or failure(s) to perform within thirty (30) days after the date of such notice.
4. EXTENT OF CONTRACTUAL GUARANTEE
4.1 Status of the Honevwell Proposal. CUSTOMER's Request for Proposal, Honeywell's proposal and any
other documents submitted by Honeywell to the Customer prior to negotiation of this Agreement are expressly
excluded from and are not a part of this Agreement. The parties agree that although the Honeywell Proposal may

reasonably could be expected to increase or decrease energy used at the Premises by a value more than five percent
(5%) of the Guaranteed energy Savings per utility meter or submeter:
(1) manner of use of the Premises by Client;
(2) hours of operation of any equipment or facilities or energy systems contained in the Premises;
(3) occupancy of the Premises;
(4) structure of the Premises;
(5) types of equipment used in the Premises; or
(6) conditions affecting energy use in the Premises.
5.8.2. Umeported Material Changes. In the absence of any material Changes in the Premises or in their
operations, energy consumption and demand should not change from year to year. Therefore, if energy consumption
and demand per utility meter or submeter for any month increases by five percent (5%) of the Guaranteed Savings
per meter or more from the energy consumption and demand for the same month of the preceding contract year after
adjustment for changes to climactic conditions, then such increase shall be deemed to have resulted from a Material
Change, except where such increase is due to equipment malfunction, faulty repair or other acts of negligence by
HONEYWELL.
5.8.3. Adiustments for Material Changes. In the event of any increase or decrease in energy consumption and
demand for any month resulting from a reported or umeported Material Change, the amount of that increase shall be
subtracted from or that decrease shall be added to the total energy consumption and demand for that month prior to
the calculation of energy savings pursuant to Attachments F and G.
5.8.3.1. If a reported or umeported Material Change affected energy consumption and demand in the same
calendar month in the preceding year, the next preceding contract year where a Material Change has not occurred
will be used to compute the value of the Material Change and the energy savings for the current month.

1.3 Enere:v and Operational Cost Avoidance Guarantee Practices:
1.3.1 BASELINE Operatinl!: Parameters are the facility(s) and system(s) operations measured and/or observed
before commencement of the Work. The data summarized will be used in the calculation of the baseline energy
consumption and/or demand and for calculating baseline adjustments for changes in facility operation that occur
during the Guarantee Period. HONEYWELL and CUSTOMER agree that the operating parameters specified in this
section are representative of equipment operating characteristics during the Baseline Period specified in this
Agreement. The following data was collected with the assistance of Rick Carnley, Assistant Director, General
Services.
The Baseline Period is defined as
January 2006 to December 2006 .
The Contractual Baseline consists of the Baseline Conditions and Baseline Operating Parameters collected from the
Baseline Period and modified by Baseline Adjustments, as necessary, as defined herein and by the Exhibits to
Attachment G.
Baseline operating parameters are stipulated in <Baseline Operating Parameters> attached hereto and incorporated
herein as Exhibit G-I. See Energy Savings Calculations, attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit G-6
through G-9 for further information regarding stipulated baseline parameters.
1.3.1.1 Pre-Retrofit Baseline Adjustments: The following describes the adjustments that have been made during
the determination of the Baseline, prior to the determination of the projected cost avoidance and the guaranteed cost
avoidance. The adjustments are due to those projects included in Attachment A, or other known events, which
increase energy use prior to the application of the ECMs.
A. Operation of Natatorium Push Pull Ventilation System:
The natatorium was initially designed with a push pull ventilation system to limit the concentration of pool
chemicals in the space air and provide for some space conditioning. The system is not in operation at this
time. This is causing excessive condensation on the building structure during cold weather. Additionally,
Item tf 14
Attachment G (Form Rev. 11-06) Page 2 of 6 Revised 6111108
Attachment number 1
Page 43 of 78
the only source of heat is through the pool heaters. This causes excessive evaporation of pool water. The
existing system provided for the introduction and exhaust of 60,000 cfm of outdoor air during occupied
periods. The air was to be maintained at a temperature of 80 deg F to limit the heat losses from the pool
water. Honeywell has calculated the expected operating cost of the existing ventilation system. Honeywell
utilized an energy simulation program to generate the expected operational. The inputs for and the results
of the simulation are presented in exhibit G-6.
Additionally, the existing pool heating system is the only source of heat for the space. This is causing
excessive evaporation of the pool water requiring additional heat to be added to the pool water. Honeywell
has simulated the expected pool heating load had the existing ventilation system been operating and
maintaining the space temperature at baseline levels. The calculated pool energy use is lower than the
existing pool energy use.
The pool de humidification ECM will use the calculated energy use of the ventilation system and the pool
heating system as the baseline for calculating energy savings.
The parameters, methodologies, and/or calculations used in determining the Pre-Retrofit Baseline Adjustments are
incorporated herein as Exhibit G-4.
Routine and non-routine future post-retrofit baseline adjustments are discussed in section 1.4.4.
1.3.2 GUARANTEE PERIOD Operatinl!: Parameters of the facility(s) and system(s) after completion of
Work. The Customer agrees to operate, or cause to effect the operation of the Work in such manner that is
in accordance with the Guaranteed Period Operating Parameters. The data summarized will be used in the
calculation of the post-retrofit energy consumption and/or demand. HONEYWELL and CUSTOMER
agree that the proposed operating parameters specified in this section are representative of equipment
operating characteristics during the Guarantee Period specified in this Agreement. And, further, that they
are agreed to be reasonable and may be used in the calculation of the cost avoidance, as if the site is
actually operating per the parameters outlined exhibit G-2.
Guarantee Period operating parameters are stipulated in Guarantee Period Operating Parameters attached hereto and
incorporated herein as Exhibit G-2.
1.3.2.1 Post-Retrofit Baseline Adjustments: The following describes known future events, events not captured
in section 1.3.1.1., which generally increase energy use compared to the Baseline Period. This energy use is added
to the baseline to determine an adjusted baseline against which the energy and energy cost avoidance will be
determined. Energy increases are variable and dependant on the actual use of equipment.
A. De-humidification of Natatorium:
The natatorium does not have the ability to control humidity levels within the space. Honeywell has
calculated the expected electrical cost associated with controlling the humidity level within the space
utilizing a standard direct expansion refrigeration system. The system load is a function several different
factors. These factors are listed below:
Qpool evaporative load= Space load as a result of water evaporating from the pool surface. This load is a function
of the activity level in the pool, the temperature differential between the pool water and space and the space
humidity level. The pool evaporative load has to be made up by the pool water heaters. The peak load was
calculated to be 602,000 btu per hour. The annual hourly load profile (the % of peak value per hour) was
calibrated to the existing pool water heat addition presented in exhibit G-l.
Qenvelope load= Space load as a result of outside air temperature, solar radiation, envelope resistance to
conductive heat transfer, glass properties, and building orientation.
Qoccupancy= Space load due to the number of people occupying the space and activity level of the people.
Qlighting = Space load due to electrical lighting in the space.
Attachment G (Form Rev. 11-06)
Page 3 of6
Item tf 14
Revised 6111108
Attachment number 1
Page 44 of 78
Qcquipmcnt= Space load due to electrical equipment operating in the space.
The energy use associated with the dehumidification process is a function of both the load being served by
the equipment and the efficiency of the equipment. The efficiency of the equipment is also a function of
the outside air temperature.
These variables were input into an energy simulation software package in order to generate the expected
energy use of the equipment utilized to dehumidify the space. The inputs are presented in exhibit G-4.
The results of the simulation are used as a post retrofit baseline adjustment for the natatorium de-
humidification project. The energy use and resulting cost are the projected use of the de humidification
equipment to be installed as part of the energy conservation measure. These values are presented in exhibit
G-4.
The known post retrofit adjustments to the baseline conditions used in the determination of energy and energy cost
avoidance are included in Exhibit G and attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit G-4.
1.3.3 Operational Cost Avoidance: The following parameters, methodologies, and/or calculations were used in
determining the Operational Costs and/or avoided costs due to the Retrofit and Support Services implementation
and are agreed to be reasonable and may be used in the calculation of the cost avoidance.

1.4.2 Ener!!:v Cost Avoidance: The following describes the Measurement and Verification procedures,
formulas, and stipulated values which may be used in the calculation of the energy cost avoidance. The
calculation of energy cost avoidance is based upon the utility rate paid during the Guarantee Year, or the
Baseline Period utility rate, whichever produces the higher cost avoidance and/or as defined heretofore.
Energy cost avoidance may also include, but is not limited to, Savings from demand charges, power factor
correction, taxes, ratchet charges, rate changes and other utility tariff charges that are reduced as a result of
the HONEYWELL involvement. The Customer is responsible for procuring a ratchet reset from the local
utility company, as applicable. In case any ratchets are not reset the following adjustment will be made -
energy cost avoidance will be calculated as if the ratchet has been reset at the end of the installation of
electrical demand reducing ECMs.
1.4.2.1 Natatorium Dehumidification
The existing natatorium is not dehumidified. The energy conservation measure will install a specialized
pool dehumidification unit to maintain the natatorium space at 60% Relative humidity and 840F. The heat
of rejection from the unit associated with the refrigeration process will be recovered with the use of heat
exchangers to offset the energy required to maintain the main pool at 820F and the Therapy pool at 840F
and the space at 840F. The electrical energy use of the dehumidification system will be used as a baseline
adjustment for this project, resulting in no electrical savings for this project. The amount of heat recovered
from the process will reduce the energy consumption of the existing ventilation system and the pool water
heaters.
The same energy simulation utilized in the post retro fit baseline adjustment was utilized to determine the
energy savings associated with the heat recovery. For each hour of the simulation the potential energy
recovery available from the dehumidification cycle was checked against the pool heating energy
requirements (in the form of the pool evaporative load) and the space energy requirement. If the
dehumidification cycle was calculated to not be operating or if it was operating but enough heat was not
available to offset the heating required by the space and the pool, the auxiliary heating requirement was
calculated. The auxiliary heating requirement was used as the expected energy use of the facility post
retro-fit. The existing heating requirement for the pool during the baseline period is added to the baseline
adjustment to determine the baseline used for the energy savings calculation. The difference between the
baseline energy use and the calculated post retrofit auxiliary energy is use is the calculated savings for
natural gas for this ECM.
The pre retrofit energy use for this ECM will be stipulated to the results of the Pre retrofit baseline
adjustment energy simulation and the existing baseline period pool energy use. Post retrofit, Honeywell
will measure the energy efficiency of the dehumidification process to determine that the energy efficiency
utilized in the simulation corresponds to efficiency of the installed unit.

1.4.2.2 Roof Top Unit Replacement
Honeywell will replace 8 rooftop units that serve areas of the long center other than the natatorium. These
units are past their expected useful life. The energy efficiency of the new units will be much greater than
the existing units. The calculations assume that the space loads served by these units during the baseline
period will be similar to future space loads at the facility resulting in similar load factors. The load factor
utilized in the energy savings calculations is 10% lower than the buildings energy load factor during the
baseline period. The 10% lower load factor is used as a safety factor in the determination of cost
avoidance. The current unit energy efficiencies will be stipulated for the purpose of determining cost
avoidance. The energy efficiencies of the post retrofit units will also be stipulated.
1.4.2.3 Lil!:htinl!:
Honeywell will replace the existing lighting in the natatorium and the gymnasium with higher efficiency
fixtures. The existing light fixtures will have a representative sample measured for power consumption
levels. The results of the measurement will be compared against the power consumption utilized in the
energy savings calculations for accuracy. The post retrofit fixtures power consumption will also be have a
representative sample measured. The difference in the post retrofit fixture power consumption and pre
retrofit power consumption levels will be multiplied by the annual run time hours for each fixture. The
annual run time hours will be stipulated for the duration of the contract.
1.4.2.4 Domestic Hot Water Heat Recoverv
Honeywell will install heat recovery equipment on two of the new roof top units to recover the rejected
heat from the refrigeration process to heat domestic hot water at the facility. Honeywell has calculated the
expected energy use of the domestic hot water used in the locker rooms at the facility. Honeywell has
calculated that 10% of the time that roof top units are running, there will be an opportunity to recover the
heat for domestic hot water use. The amount of energy available for heat recovery is a function of the
calculated energy use of the roof top unit. The amount of energy utilized by an 18 ton unit for this facility
was calculated for the rooftop replacement ECM. The calculated value of heat recovery will be stipulated
for the term of the contract.
1.4.3 Specific ECM M&V Planes): Specific M&V plans are displayed in Exhibit G-O.
1.4.4 Constants: The constants and/or stipulated values defined in the Exhibits to Attachment G, or as defined

Pre- Retrofit Baseline Adjustments
A Pre Retrofit Baseline adjustment is necessary to account for the expected energy use of the existing inoperable
ventilation system. Additionally, if the ventilation system had been operable the amount energy used to heat the
pool would have been less as the energy added to the pool was also being used to heat the space. The peak
evaporative loss was calculated for the size of the pools, the desired pool temperatures, expected activity level at
peak, and the desired space temperature. A time profile was generated to account for evaporative energy losses of
the pool at off peak times. The total evaporative loss was summed for each time period. This is the calculated
energy loss for the pool. Utilizing the pool heaters rated combustion efficiency; the expected pool energy input is
then calculated. An Energy simulation was performed utilizing Carrier's Hourly Analysis Program Version 4.31
to determine the ventilation systems energy input requirements. The following inputs were utilized to determine
the expected energy use of the ventilation system to maintain the space at 840F. The units were set to be turned off
during unoccupied periods.

Pool Dehumidification Cost Avoidance Calculations
The Savings calculation for this ECM utilizes the same energy simulation model utilized in Exhibit G-5
(Known Post retrofit baseline adjustments). In addition to the power consumption data generated, the pool
heating load is input into an additional column. The heat recovery energy available is the sum of the
central cooling load and the central unit power input (converted to heating units). A check is done to see if
the heat available is enough to supply the space heating load calculated by the simulation and the pool
heating load. If there is not enough heat to supply these loads the load will be served by auxiliary heaters.
The pool unit will have a natural gas heating section to supply heat to the space and the existing pool
heaters will be utilized as an auxiliary heating source for the pool.
The energy simulation generated an hourly profile of the heating load, refrigeration load, power
consumption of the pool dehumidification unit, lighting power consumption, pump power consumption,
supply fan power consumption, and return fan power consumption.

ANALYSIS:
This rezoning application involves 28.35 acres of property owned by BVG Acquisition, Inc. The
subj ect property is located approximately 150 feet south of Gulf to Bay Boulevard between Cross
Street (east) and Sky Harbor Drive (west). It is occupied by Bayview Gardens, which includes
229 attached dwellings (independent living units) and 94 assisted living facility beds. The
property has a Future Land Use Plan (FLUP) category of Residential Medium (RM) and is zoned
Medium Density Residential (MDR). The applicant is requesting to rezone the property to the
Medium High Density Residential (MHDR) District in order to redevelop the site into a life care
center consisting of 229 attached dwellings (independent living units), 170 assisted living facility
beds and 40 skilled nursing beds (see companion case FLD2008-05012). Nursing homes are not
permitted in the current Medium Density Residential (MDR) zoning district.
The underlying Residential Medium (RM) future land plan use category allows 15 units per acre.
Independent living units are considered dwellings for the purposes of density calculations.
Assisted living facilities and nursing homes are considered residential equivalent uses and for the
purposes of calculating density, 3.0 beds are equal to one dwelling unit. Since the land use
designation of the property is not changing, the maximum allowable density of the site is not
changing (425 dwelling units or 1275 beds or some combination thereof). The proposed
redevelopment of the site will result in a total of 299 units [229 dwelling units (independent
units) and 210 assisted living and nursing beds (which is equal to 70 units)].
The maps attached to the staff report illustrate the site boundaries with a red outline, which is
based on the property survey. The City's base maps show the existence of some upland to the
south of the outlined property. The base maps are inconsistent with the property survey and the
Engineering Department will correct the discrepancies.
I. CONSISTENCY WITH CITY'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN [Section 4-602.F.l]
Recommended Findings of Fact
Applicable Goals, Objectives and Policies from the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan in support
of the proposed rezoning are as indicated below:
3.2.1 Policy - Land Uses on the Comprehensive Land Use Plan Map shall generally be
interpreted as indicated in the following table. The intensity standards listed in the table
(F AR - floor area ratio; ISR - impervious surface ratio) are the maximum allowed for
each plan category, except where otherwise permitted by special area plans or
redevelopment plans approved by the City Commission. Consequently, individual zoning
districts, as established by the City's Community Development Code, may have more
stringent intensity standards than those listed in the table but will not exceed the maximum
Community Development Board - September 16, 2008

As stated earlier, the property has a future land use plan designation of Residential Medium
(RM). The Clearwater Comprehensive Plan and Community Development Code specifies that
the proposed Medium High Density Residential (MHDR) zoning district is consistent with the
Residential Medium (RM) category. The Medium High Density Residential (MHDR) District
provides a wider range of residential equivalent uses to be accommodated on this property and
enables a continuum of care to be provided in the proposed redevelopment. The Medium High
Density Residential (MHDR) District is located adjacent to the west of the site and is consistent
with the commercial and residential categories found to the north and east. The proposed
rezoning is therefore consistent with the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan.
II. COMPATIBILITY WITH SURROUNDING PROPERTY/CHARACTER OF THE
CITY & NEIGHBORHOOD [Sections 4-602.F.2, 4-602.F.3 & 4-602.F.4]
Recommended Findings of Fact
Gulf Boulevard Corridor
Gulf to Bay Boulevard is a six-lane roadway with a center turn lane, which carries vehicular
traffic between Tampa and Clearwater Beach. The surrounding area is characterized by
commercial and residential uses. The area has a mixture of commercial and residential plan
categories that allow for 15 (Residential Medium) to 30 (Residential High) dwelling units per
acre.
Immediately to the north of the subject property is retail sales and service, restaurants, a nursing
home and a church. The property has zoning designations of Commercial (C) and Institutional
(I) with underlying future land use plan designations of Commercial General (CG) and
Institutional (I).

Page 4 of 7
To the east are detached dwellings, Medium Density Residential (MDR) zoning and a
Residential Medium (RM) future land use plan category. To the south of the subject property is
Old Tampa Bay.
To the west is a nursing home, fire station, Clearwater Mall and a mobile home park. There are
zoning designations of Institutional (I), Office (0), and Mobile Home Park (MHP) and future
land use plan categories of Institutional (I) Commercial General (CG), Residential Office General
(R/OG), and Residential Low Medium (RLM).
Section 2-401 of the Community Development Code, titled "Intent and purpose" states:
The intent and purpose of the Medium High Density Residential District ("MHDR") is to
protect and preserve the integrity and value of existing, stable residential neighborhoods
of medium high density while at the same time, allowing a careful and deliberate
redevelopment and revitalization of existing neighborhoods in need of revitalization or
neighborhoods with unique amenities which create unique opportunities to increase
property values and the overall attractiveness of the City.
Recommended Conclusions of Law
The proposed rezoning is compatible with the surrounding residential, commercial, and
institutional uses. The proposed MHDR zoning district will be in character with the surrounding
properties and is consistent with the surrounding zoning. Furthermore, the existing use of the
site is consistent with the requirements of the proposed MHDR District and will enable the
revitalization of this site.
III. SUFFICIENCY OF PUBLIC FACILITIES [4-602.F.5]
Recommended Findings of Fact
As stated earlier, this rezoning application involves 28.35 acres of property. Based on a
maximum allowable density of 15 dwelling units per acre in the existing Residential Medium
(RM) category and proposed Medium High Density Residential (MHDR) zoning district, the
property could support 425 dwellings units/1,275 beds. The proposed redevelopment of the site
will result in a total of 299 units [229 dwelling units (independent living units) and 210 assisted
living and nursing beds (which is equivalent to 70 units)).
Roadways
Specific uses in the current and proposed zoning districts have been analyzed for the number of
vehicle trips that could be generated based on the Institute of Transportation Engineer's Manual,
as well as the specific proposal submitted in the companion case FLD2008-05012 (see agenda
item F.l).

The 2007 Transportation Level of Service (LOS) manual from the Pinellas County Metropolitan
Planning Organization assigned the Gulf to Bay Boulevard segment between Sky Harbor Drive
and Hampton Road a LOS of F. This proposed rezoning does not alter the maximum
development potential of the site, however, it does expand the available allowable uses to include
nursing homes and residential shelters. The site is currently developed with independent and
assisted living units and is not developed to the maximum allowed. The proposed redevelopment
will expand the number of assisted living facility units and add nursing beds as well but will not
approach the maximum allowed by the current future land use category. Based on the ITE Trip
Generation Manual the proposed redevelopment of the site will result in an increase of 33 PM
Peak trips compared to the existing development. This increase is minor and will not negatively
impact the LOS for Gulf-to-Bay Boulevard. In the event the site is redeveloped with either
residential uses or a development with more residential equivalent uses than proposed, a traffic
study would need to be submitted at the time of site plan review to ensure that transportation
concurrency requirements are met.
Mass Transit
The Citywide LOS for mass transit will not be negatively affected by the proposed zoning atlas
amendment. The total miles of fixed route service will not change; the subject site is located
along an existing transit route and headways are less than or equal to one hour.
Water
As no change is proposed to the underlying future land use designation, the proposed rezoning
will not impact the City's current LOS for water. Although redevelopment may generate a
greater demand for water, the City has adequate capacity to serve any increases.
Wastewater
As no change is proposed to the underlying future land use designation, the proposed rezoning
will not impact the City's current LOS for wastewater. Although redevelopment may create
more wastewater the City has adequate capacity to serve any increases.
Solid Waste
As no change is proposed to the underlying future land use designation, the proposed rezoning
will not impact the City's current LOS for solid waste disposal. Although redevelopment may
create additional solid waste, the City has adequate capacity to serve any increases.
Recreation and Open Space
Impact fees may be required. This fee is addressed through the site plan process and any required
payment would be due prior to the issuance of building permits.
Recommended Conclusions of Law
Based upon the findings of fact, it has been determined that the traffic generated by this rezoning
will not negatively impact the existing LOS to the surrounding road network. Further, there is a
minimal impact to water, wastewater and solid waste service. Open space and recreation
facilities and mass transit will not be affected by the proposed zoning atlas amendment.

IV. LOCATION OF DISTRICT BOUNDARIES [Section 4-602.F.6.]
Recommended Findings of Fact
The location of the proposed Medium High Density Residential (MHDR) District boundaries is
logical. It is compatible with the adjacent zoning districts located to the immediate north, east,
and west and to the south is Old Tampa Bay. The district boundaries are appropriately drawn in
regard to location and classifications of streets, ownership lines, existing improvements and the
natural environment.
Approval of this zoning atlas amendment does not guarantee the right to develop on the
subject property. Transportation concurrency must be met, and the property owner will have to
comply with all laws and ordinances in effect at the time development permits are requested.
SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION:
An amendment of the zoning atlas from the Medium Density Residential (MDR) District to the
Medium High Density Residential (MHDR) District for the subject property is requested. The
property exceeds the minimum lot area and lot width requirements for attached dwellings, an
assisted living facility and a nursing home. The proposed rezoning is compatible with the
existing neighborhood and is compatible with the existing future land use category and reflects
the current use of the property.
The proposed Medium High Density Residential (MHDR) District is consistent with the City
Comprehensive Plan, is compatible with the surrounding area, does not conflict with the needs
and character of the neighborhood and City, does not require nor affect the provision of public
services, and the boundaries are appropriately drawn.
Based on the above analysis, the Planning Department recommends APPROVAL of the
following action on the request:
Amend the zoning atlas designation of 2855 Gulf to Bay Boulevard from the Medium
Density Residential (MDR) District to the Medium High Density Residential (MHDR)

(b) Purchased gas adjustment (rider PGA): A rider applicable to all
natural gas therm rates and propane (LP) gallon rates to
recover the cost of the Clearwater Gas System purchased gas
supply, including losses and use by gas system
facilities/equipment and other applicable expenses. The
currently calculated PGA rates for all rate schedules, unless
specifically broken out by contract, are:

These PGA rates will normally be adjusted annually in
October and may be adjusted upward or downward from time-to-time
with the approval of the City Manager or designee based on actual
and projected supply costs and projected consumption levels in
order to recover the total cost of the gas system's supply plus all
costs attributable to the acquisition of system supply gas and other
applicable expenses. The over or under recovery of these PGA costs
will be computed monthly and an adjustment in the PGA rate will be
made at the discretion of the City Manager or designee. The
differential between the Natural Gas Firm Standard Rate Schedule
PGA and the Natural Gas Interruptible and Contract (Non-Standard)
Rate Schedule PGA will be established and approved by the city
manager or designee for each semi-annual period based on the
available records for the most recent 12 months. This differential will
typically be computed by dividing the transmission pipeline
"reservation charges" component of the WACOG by the therms sold
to all of the natural gas firm rate schedules. The gas system may
also segment specific gas purchases for specific targeted
customer(s) based on contract. Additionally, a fixed monthly amount
may be added to the customer charge of applicable classes of
natural gas service rates to recover the estimated impact of the
added costs associated with gas purchased through a third-party
transporter (including generally east of the Suncoast Parkway in
Pasco County). These added monthly customer charges shall be
credited to the overall PGA recovery account and will be initially set

administrative costs. The party or parties responsible shall remit
payment for all claims directly to Clearwater Gas System upon
receipt of invoice or notification of the City of Clearwater Risk
Management Department.
(4) Gas contract and rate application policies: The following represent
policies of the City of Clearwater as applied by the Clearwater Gas
System:
(a) Uniformity of rate and service application: To the extent that the
customer requests a review of his/her rate account, all rates, charges
and contract provisions are intended to be consistently and uniformly
applied to all customers of the same type with the same usage
characteristics, fuel options, and equipment capabilities. Any
customer who feels that they have been treated unjustly and is
unable to resolve the dispute with Clearwater Gas System personnel
and management has full access to the normal City of Clearwater
utilities dispute resolution process as defined in the City Code of
Ordinances, Chapter 32, Section 32.004.
(b) Contract rate level determination: It is the policy of Clearwater Gas
System to offer a customer or potential customer who currently uses
or has access to an alternate energy source and has the capability to
use this alternate energy source, or is otherwise deemed to be a
threat to discontinue gas usage, a rate level adequate to acquire or
preserve the gas load, provided that such a rate application will
provide a reasonable profit margin to the Clearwater Gas System
and the extension of any capital investment to serve such a
customer falls within the normal gas system construction feasibility
formula. Where the capability to use such alternative energy source
will require an initial additional capital outlay by the customer, the
contract rate may be based on a net present value calculation over
the expected life of the facility.
(c) Rate schedule reductions: The City Manager is authorized to reduce
the billing charge(s) for any rate schedule(s) towards achieving the
"cost of service based rates" as recommended in the most recent
rate study done for the Clearwater Gas System.
(d) Main and service extension construction feasibility: Whenever a
prospective customer requests a new gas service, the Clearwater
24
Ordinance No. 7998-03tem # 22
Attachment number 1
Page 25 of 28
Gas System will extend service to the prospective customer under
the following conditions:
1 . Design considerations. The extension of gas service to the
perspective customer can be reasonably accomplished within
good engineering design, access can be secured though
easements or right-of-way, and the service will not jeopardize
the quality of gas service to existing customers.
2. Main line extension construction feasibility. The maximum
capital investment which will be made by the Clearwater Gas
System to extend main lines and services to serve a new
customer(s) shall be seven times the estimated annual gas
revenue to be derived from the facilities less the cost of gas
and the cost of monthly meter reading, customer accounting
and billing. The formula shall be:
Non-Fuel Energy Rate x Estimated Annual Therms/Gallons =
Estimated Annual Gas Non-Fuel Revenues x 7 Years =
Maximum Investment for Construction Feasibility
Note: The Monthly Customer Charge is
to cover the cost of
meter reading, customer accounting and billing.
3. Service line extensions. The Clearwater Gas System will
install gas service lines off of the main line at no charge to the
customer under the following circumstances:
A year round customer has installed
equipment
an estimated minimum annual
consumption of two therms per foot of service line required
or
The cost of such service line extension meets the Maximum
investment for Construction Feasibility (as defined "d." above)
Customers who do not meet the criteria for service extensions
as set forth above will either be charged the estimated
construction cost per foot for the excess footage or pay a
25
Ordinance No. 7998-03tem # 22
Attachment number 1
Page 26 of 28
contribution in aid of construction (CIAC) to cover the
deficiency amount from the above construction feasibility
formula or enter into a facilities charge contract sufficient to
cover this deficiency within a period of seven
years.
4. Customer contribution required. If the capital construction costs
to extend the main exceed the maximum investment for
construction feasibility, the developer/customer(s) will be
required to either provide a non-reimbursable CIAC to cover
the excess investment amount or satisfy this deficiency by
entering into a facilities charge contract sufficient to cover this
deficiency within a period of seven years. Such
facilities contract charges may be reduced or potentially
discontinued entirely to the extent that other customer(s) are
added beyond the initial customer(s), the facilities covered by
the facilities contract charges are used to serve these
additional customer(s), and to the extent that there are
calculated excess dollars above the additional customer(s)
maximum investment for construction feasibility minus the
capital construction costs for the mains to serve these
additional customer(s).
5. Conversion of equipment to natural gas. The Clearwater Gas
System will convert the customer's
existing appliance orifice(s) (if convertible) to accept natural
gas at no cost to the customer, provided that the customers
gas use is year round
commercial industrial customer enter into
a exclusively use the natural gas
service of the Clearwater Gas System
.; and this amount, when
added to the other cost to serve amounts, still renders the
project feasible.
Relocation of gas service facilities. When alterations or
additions to structures or improvements on any premise
require the
Clearwater Gas System to relocate metering, service line, or
26
Ordinance No. 7998-03tem # 22
Attachment number 1

main line, or when such relocation is requested by the
customer, or others, for whatever reason, the customer or
others, be required to reimburse the Clearwater Gas
System for all or any part of the costs incurred to accomplish
such relocation of gas system facilities
7.
Section 2. Should any section, paragraph, sentence or word of this
ordinance be declared for any reason to be invalid, the same shall not affect
the validity of the ordinance as a whole, or any part thereof other than the
part declared to be invalid.
Section 3. All ordinances or parts of ordinances in conflict herewith
are to the extent of such conflict hereby repealed.
Section 4. This ordinance shall become effective upon adoption and
shall be applicable to all gas bills and services rendered on or after January

PARTICIPANTS' ACCOUNTS AND ALLOCATION OF CONTRIBUTIONS
6.1 Common Fund. The assets of the Trust shall constitute a common fund in
which each Participant shall have an undivided interest.
6.2 Establishment of Accounts. The Plan Administrator shall establish and
maintain with respect to each Participant such accounts as necessary to reflect the
Participant's interest in the Trust Fund with respect to contributions made by the
Employer, the Employee and a Rollover Contribution Account to reflect the Participant's
interest in the Trust Fund with respect to employer, employee and rollover contributions.
The Plan Administrator may establish such additional accounts as are necessary to
reflect a Participant's interest in the Trust Fund.
6.3 Interests of Participants. The interest of a Participant in the Trust Fund
shall be the balance remaining from time to time in his Account after making the
adjustments required in Section 6.4.
6.4 Adjustments to Accounts. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.5, a
Participant's Account shall be adjusted from time to time as follows:
(a) As of each Valuation Date, each of a Participant's Accounts shall
be credited or charged, as the case may be, with a share of the earnings of the
Trust Fund for the Valuation Period ending with such current Valuation Date as
follows:
(1) As of each Valuation Date, any portion of the Participant's
Accounts that is invested in a Pooled Investment Fund
established under Article XI shall be credited or charged, as
the case may be, with a share of the earnings of such
Pooled Investment Fund for the Valuation Period ending with
such current Valuation Date. Each Participant's share of the
earnings of a Pooled Investment Fund for any Valuation
Period shall be determined by the Plan Administrator on a
weighted average basis, so that each Participant with a
balance in such Pooled Investment Fund shall receive a pro-
rata share of the earnings of such Pooled Investment Fund,
taking into account the period of time that each dollar
invested in such Pooled Investment Fund has been so
invested.
(2) As of each Valuation Date, the portion of the Participant's
Accounts that is invested in each Segregated Investment
Fund established under Article XI shall be credited or
charged, as the case may be, with the earnings attributable
to the Participant's investment in such Segregated

current Valuation Date.
(b) Each Participant's Accounts shall be credited with contributions
made during the Plan Year, as follows:
(1) As of each Valuation Date that is the last day of the Plan
Year, or at such other times as determined by the Employer,
the Employer Contribution Account of a Participant shall be
credited with his share of the contribution made by the
Employer with respect to the Plan Year ending with such
Valuation Date. A Participant's share of the amount of the
contribution for the Plan Year shall be determined pursuant
to the provisions of Article V.
(2) As of each Valuation Date, the Rollover Contribution
Account of a Participant shall be credited with the Rollover
Contributions, if any, made by the Participant pursuant to
Article V.
(c) As of each Valuation Date, each Account of a Participant shall be
charged with the amount of any distribution made to the Participant or his
beneficiary from such Account during the Valuation Period ending with such
Valuation Date.
(d) For purposes of all computations required by this Article VI, the
cash method of accounting shall be used, and the Trust Fund and the assets
thereof shall be valued at their fair market value as of each Valuation Date.
The Plan Administrator may adopt such additional accounting procedures as are
necessary to accurately reflect each Participant's interest in the Trust Fund, which
procedures shall be effective upon approval by the Employer. All such procedures shall
be applied in a consistent, nondiscriminatory manner.
6.5 Limitation on Allocation of Contributions.
(a) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Plan to the contrary, the
aggregate Annual Additions to a Participant's Accounts under this Plan and
under any other defined contribution plans maintained by the Employer for any
Limitation Year shall not exceed the lesser of: the limitation under Code Section
415(c), $40,000, as adjusted for increases in the cost-of-living under Code
Section 415(d) of the Code, or 100% of the Participant's Code Section 415(c)(3)
compensation for such Limitation Year.
(b) In the event that the Annual Additions, under the normal
administration of the Plan, would otherwise exceed the limits set forth above for
any Participant, or in the event that any Participant participates in both a defined
benefit plan and a defined contribution plan maintained by the Employer and the
aggregate annual additions to and projected benefits under all of such plans,

under the normal administration of such plans, would otherwise exceed the limits
provided by law, then the Plan Administrator shall take such actions, applied in a
uniform and nondiscriminatory manner, as will keep the annual additions and
projected benefits for such Participant from exceeding the applicable limits
provided by law. Excess Annual Additions shall be disposed of as provided in
Section 6.5(c). Adjustments shall be made to other plans, if necessary to comply
with such limits, before any adjustments may be made to this Plan.
(c) If as a result of a reasonable error in estimating a Participant's
Section 415 Compensation or other circumstances permitted under Section 415
of the Code, the Annual Additions attributable to Employer contributions for a
particular Participant would cause the limitations set forth in this subsection (c) to
be exceeded, the excess shall be allocated and reallocated to other Participants
in the Plan. However, if the allocation or reallocation of the excess amounts
causes the limitations of this subsection (c) to be exceeded with respect to each
Participant for the Limitation Year, then these amounts must be held unallocated
in a suspense account. If a suspense account is in existence at any time during
a particular Limitation Year, other than the Limitation Year described in the
preceding sentence, all amounts must be allocated and reallocated to the
Participants (subject to the limitations of this subsection (c)) before any
contributions that constitute Annual Additions may be made to the Plan for that
Limitation Year. The suspense account shall be credited or charged, as the case
may be, with a share of the income, losses, appreciation and depreciation
attributable thereto as if it were an Account of a Participant.

(2) The amount of the termination of employment benefit to

(3) Notwithstanding paragraphs (a)(1) and (a)(2), above, a

until any subsequent date elected by the Participant in
writing pursuant to such procedures as the Plan

(b) (1) Effective January 1, 2003, all distributions from the Plan will
be determined and made in accordance with the Treasury Regulations under
Section 401 (a)(9) of the Code and shall take precedence over any inconsistent
provisions of the Plan. Any distribution paid to a Participant (or, in the case of a

in which the Participant retires on or after his Normal
Retirement Date; or
(ii) April 1 of the year immediately following the
calendar year in which the Participant reaches age 70%.

(A) Death of Participant Before Distributions Begin. If the
Participant dies before distributions begin, the Participant's entire
interest will be distributed, or begin to be distributed, no later than
as follows:
(i) If the Participant's surviving spouse is the
Participant's sole designated Beneficiary, then, except as
provided in Section 8.1 (b)(2)(A)(v), distributions to the
surviving spouse will begin by December 31 of the calendar
15

year immediately following the calendar year in which the
Participant died, or by December 31 of the calendar year in
which the Participant would have attained age 70%, if later.
(ii) If the Participant's surviving spouse is not the
Participant's sole designated Beneficiary, then, except as
provided in Section 8.1 (b)(2)(A)(v), distributions to the
designated Beneficiary will begin by December 31 of the
calendar year immediately following the calendar year in
which the Participant died.
(iii) If there is no designated Beneficiary as of
September 30 of the year following the year of the
Participant's death, the Participant's entire interest will be
distributed by December 31 of the calendar year containing
the fifth anniversary of the Participant's death.
(iv) If the Participant's surviving spouse is the
Participant's sole designated Beneficiary and the surviving
spouse dies after the Participant but before distributions to
the surviving spouse begin, Section 8.1 (b)(2)(A), other than
Section 8.1 (b)(2)(A)(i), will apply as if the surviving spouse
were the Participant.
(v) Participants or Beneficiaries may elect on an
individual basis whether the 5-year rule or the life
expectancy rule in this Section 8.1 (b)(2)(A) and Section
8.1 (b)(4) applies to distributions after the death of a
Participant who has a designated Beneficiary. The election
must be made no later than the earlier of September 30 of
the calendar year in which distribution would be required to
begin under this Section 8.1 (b)(2)(A), or by September 30 of
the calendar year which contains the fifth anniversary of the
Participant's (or, if applicable, surviving spouse's) death. If
neither the Participant nor Beneficiary makes an election
under this paragraph, distributions will be made in
accordance with this Section 8.1 (b)(2)(A) and Section 8.1 (b)
(4) below.
For purposes of this Section 8.1(b)(2)(A) and Section 8.1(b)(4), unless
8.1 (b)(2)(A)(iv) applies, distributions are considered to begin on the
Participant's required beginning date. If Section 8.1 (b)(2)(A)(iv) above
applies, distributions are considered to begin on the date distributions are
required to begin to the surviving spouse under Section 8.1 (b)(2)(A)(i)
above. If distributions under an annuity purchased from an insurance
company irrevocably commence to the Participant before the Participant's
required beginning date (or to the Participant's surviving spouse before the
date distributions are required to begin to the surviving spouse under

Section 8.1 (b)(2)(A)(i), the date distributions are considered to begin is the
date distributions actually commence.
(B) Forms of Distribution. Unless the Participant's interest
is distributed in the form of an annuity purchased from an insurance
company or in a single sum on or before the required beginning
date, as of the first distribution calendar year distributions will be
made in accordance with Sections 8.1 (b)(3) and 8.1 (b)(4). If the
Participant's interest is distributed in the form of an annuity
purchased from an insurance company, distributions thereunder will
be made in accordance with the requirements of Section 401 (a)(9)
of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder.
(3) Required Minimum Distributions During Participant's
Lifetime.
(A) Amount of Required Minimum Distribution For Each
Distribution Calendar Year. During the Participant's lifetime, the
minimum amount that will be distributed for each distribution
calendar year is the lesser of:
(i) the quotient obtained by dividing the
Participant's account balance by the distribution period in the
Uniform Lifetime Table set forth in Treasury Regulations
Section 1.401 (a)(9)-9, using the Participant's age as of the
Participant's birthday in the distribution calendar year; or
(ii) if the Participant's sole designated Beneficiary
for the distribution calendar year is the Participant's spouse,
the quotient obtained by dividing the Participant's account
balance by the number in the Joint and Last Survivor Table
set forth in Treasury Regulations Section 1.401 (a)(9)-9,
using the Participant's and spouse's attained ages as of the
Participant's and spouse's birthdays in the distribution
calendar year.
(B) Lifetime Required Minimum Distributions Continue
Through Year of Participant's Death. Required minimum
distributions will be determined under this Section 8.1 (b)(3)
beginning with the first distribution calendar year and up to and
including the distribution calendar year that includes the
Participant's date of death.
(4) Required Minimum Distributions After Participant's Death.
(A) Death On or After Date Distributions Begin.

(i) Participant Survived by Designated
Beneficiary. If the Participant dies on or after the date
distributions begin and there is a designated Beneficiary, the
minimum amount that will be distributed for each distribution
calendar year after the year of the Participant's death is the
quotient obtained by dividing the Participant's account
balance by the longer of the remaining life expectancy of the
Participant or the remaining life expectancy of the
Participant's designated Beneficiary, determined as follows:
(1) The Participant's remaining life
expectancy is calculated using the age of the
Participant in the year of death, reduced by one for
each subsequent year.
(2) If the Participant's surviving spouse is
the Participant's sole designated Beneficiary, the
remaining life expectancy of the surviving spouse is
calculated for each distribution calendar year after the
year of the Participant's death using the surviving
spouse's age as of the spouse's birthday in that year.
For distribution calendar years after the year of the
surviving spouse's death, the remaining life
expectancy of the surviving spouse is calculated
using the age of the surviving spouse as of the
spouse's birthday in the calendar year of the spouse's
death, reduced by one for each subsequent calendar
year.
(3) If the Participant's surviving spouse is
not the Participant's sole designated Beneficiary, the
designated Beneficiary's remaining life expectancy is
calculated using the age of the Beneficiary in the year
following the year of the Participant's death, reduced
by one for each subsequent year.
(ii) No Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant
dies on or after the date distributions begin and there is no
designated Beneficiary as of September 30 of the year after
the year of the Participant's death, the minimum amount that
will be distributed for each distribution calendar year after the
year of the Participant's death is the quotient obtained by
dividing the Participant's account balance by the
Participant's remaining life expectancy calculated using the
age of the Participant in the year of death, reduced by one
for each subsequent year.
(B) Death Before Date Distributions Begin.

begin and there is a designated Beneficiary, the minimum
amount that will be distributed for each distribution calendar
year after the year of the Participant's death is the quotient
obtained by dividing the Participant's account balance by the
remaining life expectancy of the Participant's designated
Beneficiary, determined as provided in Section 8.1 (b)(4)(A)
above.
(ii) No Designated Beneficiary. If the Participant
dies before the date distributions begin and there is no
designated Beneficiary as of September 30 of the year
following the year of the Participant's death, distribution of

least as rapidly as under the method being used prior to the Participant's death.
(e) In the case of a death benefit, payment
(1) to the designated beneficiary shall begin within one year
following the Participant's death (unless the designated
beneficiary is the Participant's spouse, in which case such

remain unpaid after five (5) Plan Years solely by reason of the inability of the Plan
Administrator, after sending a registered letter, return receipt requested, to the last known
address, and after further diligent effort, to ascertain the whereabouts of such Participant
or his beneficiary, the amount so distributable shall be treated as a forfeiture. In the event
a Participant or beneficiary of such Participant is located subsequent to his benefit being
reallocated, such benefit shall be restored by an additional contribution by the Employer.
8.6 Transfer to Other Qualified Plans. The Trustee, upon written direction by
the Plan Administrator, shall transfer some or all of the assets held under the Trust to
another plan or trust meeting the requirements of the Code relating to qualified plans and

paragraph, a distributee may elect, at the time and in the manner prescribed by
the Plan Administrator, to have any portion of an eligible rollover distribution (as
defined below) paid directly to an eligible retirement plan (as defined below)
specified by the distributee in a direct rollover (as defined below).
(b) For purposes of this paragraph, the following terms shall have the
following meanings:
(1) An "eligible rollover distribution" is any distribution of all or
any portion of the balance to the credit of the distributee,
except that an eligible rollover distribution does not include:
any distribution that is one of a series of substantially equal
periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) made
for the life (or life expectancy) of the distributee or the joint
lives (or joint life expectancies) of the distributee and the
distributee's designated beneficiary, or for a specified period
of ten years or more; any distribution to the extent such
distribution is required under Section 401 (a)(9) of the Code,
and the portion of any distribution that is not included in
gross income (determined without regard to the exclusion for
net unrealized appreciation with respect to employer
securities).

account described in Section 408(a) of the Code, an
individual retirement annuity described in Section 408(b) of

eligible retirement plan is an individual retirement account or
individual retirement annuity.

In addition, the Employee's or former Employee's surviving
spouse and the Employee's or former Employee's spouse,

ARTICLE III
CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE PLAN
3.1 SALARY REDIRECTION
Benefits under the Plan shall be financed by Salary Redirections sufficient to
support Benefits that a Participant has elected hereunder. This shall be the maximum amount of
salary redirection available under this Plan. The salary administration program of the Employer
shall be revised to allow each Participant to agree to reduce his pay during a Plan Year by an
amount determined necessary to purchase the elected Benefit Options. The amount of such
Salary Redirection shall be specified in the Salary Redirection Agreement and shall be applicable
for a Plan Year. Notwithstanding the above, for new Participants, the Salary Redirection
Agreement shall only be applicable from the first day of the pay period following the Employee's
entry date up to and including the last day of the Plan Year. These contributions shall be
allocated to the funds or accounts established under the Plan pursuant to the Participants'
elections made under Article V.
Any Salary Redirection shall be determined prior to the beginning of a Plan Year
(subject to initial elections pursuant to Section 5.1) and prior to the end of the Election Period
and shall be irrevocable for such Plan Year. However, a Participant may revoke a Benefit
election or a Salary Redirection Agreement after the Plan Year has commenced and make a new
election with respect to the remainder of the Plan Year, if both the revocation and the new
election are on account of and consistent with a change in status and such other permitted events
as determined under Article V of the Plan and consistent with the rules and regulations of the
Department of the Treasury. Salary Redirection amounts shall be contributed on a pro rata basis
for each pay period during the Plan Year. All individual Salary Redirection Agreements are
deemed to be part of this Plan and incorporated by reference hereunder.
3.2 APPLICATION OF CONTRIBUTIONS
As soon as reasonably practical after each payroll period, the Employer shall
apply the Salary Redirection necessary to provide for the Benefits elected by the affected
Participants. Any contribution made or withheld for the Health Flexible Spending Account or
Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account shall be credited to such fund or account.
3.3 PERIODIC CONTRIBUTIONS
Notwithstanding the requirement provided above and in other Articles of this Plan
that Salary Redirections be contributed to the Plan on a periodic basis by the Employer on behalf
of an Employee, the Employer and Administrator will implement a procedure in which Salary
Redirections are contributed throughout the Plan Year. However, with regard to the Health
Flexible Spending Account, the payment schedule for the required contributions may not be
based on the rate or amount of reimbursements during the Plan Year.

ARTICLE IV
BENEFITS
4.1 BENEFIT OPTIONS
Each Participant may elect one or both of the following optional Benefits:
(1) Health Flexible Spending Account
(2) Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account
4.2 HEALTH FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNT BENEFIT
Each Participant may elect to participate in the Health Flexible Spending Account
option, in which case Article VI shall apply.
4.3 DEPENDENT CARE FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNT BENEFIT
Each Participant may elect to participate in the Dependent Care Flexible Spending
Account option, in which case Article VII shall apply.
4.4 NONDISCRIMINATION REQUIREMENTS
It is the intent of this Plan to provide benefits to a classification of employees
which the Secretary of the Treasury finds not to be discriminatory in favor of the group in whose
favor discrimination may not occur under Code Section 125.
If the Administrator deems it necessary to avoid discrimination or possible
taxation to a group of employees in whose favor discrimination may not occur in violation of
Code Section 125, it may, but shall not be required to, reject any election or reduce contributions
or non-taxable Benefits in order to assure compliance with this Section. Any act taken by the
Administrator under this Section shall be carried out in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner.
If the Administrator decides to reject any election or reduce contributions or non-taxable
Benefits, it shall be done in the following manner. First, the non-taxable Benefits of the affected
Participant who is highly compensated, who has the highest amount of non-taxable Benefits for
the Plan Year shall have his non-taxable Benefits reduced until the discrimination tests set forth
in this Section are satisfied or until the amount of his non-taxable Benefits equals the non-taxable
Benefits of the affected Participant who has the second highest amount of non-taxable Benefits.
This process shall continue until the nondiscrimination tests set forth in this Section are satisfied.
With respect to any affected Participant who has had Benefits reduced pursuant to this Section,
the reduction shall be made proportionately among Health Flexible Spending Account Benefits
and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account Benefits. Contributions which are not utilized to
provide Benefits to any Participant by virtue of any administrative act under this paragraph shall
be forfeited and deposited into the benefit plan surplus.

ARTICLE V
PARTICIPANT ELECTIONS
5.1 INITIAL ELECTIONS
An Employee who meets the eligibility requirements of Section 2.1 on the first
day of, or during, a Plan Year may elect to participate in this Plan for all or the remainder of such
Plan Year, provided he elects to do so before his effective date of participation pursuant to
Section 2.2. An Employee who becomes eligible less than one week before the end of the open
enrollment period will be required to elect his or her benefit options within one week of the date
he or she became eligible to participate in the Plan. However, if such Employee does not
complete an application to participate and deliver it to the Administrator before such date, his
Election Period shall only be extended if the Administrator has established procedures for
extending the Election Period, provided such extended Election Period is applied on a uniform
and nondiscriminatory basis. In addition, if the Administrator establishes an extended Election
Period pursuant to this Section 5.1, such benefit elections shall not be effective until the first pay
period following the later of such Participant's effective date of participation pursuant to Section
2.2 or the date of the receipt of the application by the Administrator, and shall be limited to the
Benefit expenses that are incurred by the Participant and/or dependents for the balance of the
Plan Year for which the election is made.
5.2 SUBSEQUENT ANNUAL ELECTIONS
During the Election Period prior to each subsequent Plan Year, each Participant
shall be given the opportunity to elect, in accordance with procedures established by the
Administrator, which Benefit options he wishes to select. Any such election shall be effective for
any Benefit expenses incurred during the Plan Year which follows the end of the Election Period.
With regard to subsequent annual elections, the following options shall apply:
(a) A Participant or Employee who failed to initially elect to
participate may elect different or new Benefits under the Plan during the Election
Period;
(b) A Participant may terminate his partIcIpation in the Plan by
notifying the Administrator in writing during the Election Period that he does not
want to participate in the Plan for the next Plan Year, or by not electing any
Benefit options;
(c) An Employee who elects not to partIcIpate for the Plan Year
following the Election Period will have to wait until the next Election Period
before again electing to participate in the Plan, except as provided for in Section
5.4.
5.3 FAILURE TO ELECT
Any Participant failing to participate in the benefit election process pursuant to
Section 5.2 by the end of the applicable Election Period shall be deemed to have elected not to
7
\388024\5 - # 501541 v5
Item # 33
Attachment number 2
Page 12 of 32
participate in the Plan for the upcoming Plan Year. No further Salary Redirections shall therefore
be authorized for such subsequent Plan Year.
5.4 CHANGE IN STATUS
(a) Any Participant may change a Benefit election after the Plan Year
(to which such election relates) has commenced and make new elections with
respect to the remainder of such Plan Year if, under the facts and circumstances, the
changes are necessitated by and are consistent with a change in status which is
acceptable under rules and regulations adopted by the Department of the Treasury,
the provisions of which are incorporated by reference. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, if the rules and regulations conflict, then such rules and
regulations shall control.
In general, a change in election is not consistent if the change in status is
the Participant's divorce, annulment or legal separation from a spouse, the death
of a spouse or dependent, or a dependent ceasing to satisfy the eligibility
requirements for coverage, and the Participant's election under the Plan is to
begin or increase contributions to a flexible spending account. In addition, if a
change in status occurs as a result of a marriage, birth, or adoption, then a
Participant's election under the Plan to cease or decrease flexible spending
account contributions is not consistent with that change in status. Regardless, a
Participant may not reduce the flexible spending account election to an amount
less than an amount equal to the reimbursements previously issued to that
Participant during the current plan year.
Regardless of the consistency requirement, if the individual, the individual's
spouse, or dependent becomes eligible for continuation coverage under the
Employer's group health plan as provided in Public Health Service Act (42 USC
300bb-1 et. seq.) or any similar state law, then the individual may elect to increase
payments under this Plan in order to pay for the continuation coverage. However,
this does not apply for COBRA eligibility due to divorce, annulment or legal
separation.
Any new election shall be effective at such time as the Administrator shall
prescribe, but not earlier than the first pay period beginning after the election is
properly executed in accordance with the procedures established by the
Administrator. For the purposes of this subsection, a change in status shall only
include the following events or other events permitted by Treasury regulations:
(1) Legal Marital Status: events that change a Participant's legal
marital status, including marriage, divorce, death of a spouse, legal
separation or annulment;
(2) Number of Dependents: Events that change a Participant's number
of dependents, including birth, adoption, placement for adoption, or death of
a dependent;
8
\388024\5 - # 501541 v5
Item # 33
Attachment number 2
Page 13 of 32
(3) Employment Status: Any of the following events that change the
employment status of the Participant, spouse, or dependent: termination or
commencement of employment, a strike or lockout, commencement or
return from an unpaid leave of absence, or a change in worksite. In addition,
if the eligibility conditions of this Plan or other employee benefit plan of the
Employer of the Participant, spouse, or dependent depend on the
employment status of that individual and there is a change in that
individual's employment status with the consequence that the individual
becomes (or ceases to be) eligible under the plan, then that change
constitutes a change in employment under this subsection; and
(4) Dependent satisfies or ceases to satisfy the eligibility requirements:
An event that causes the Participant's dependent to satisfy or cease to satisfy
the requirements for coverage due to attainment of age, student status, or
any similar circumstance.
For the Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account, a dependent becoming
or ceasing to be a "Qualifying Individual" as defined under Code Section 21 (b)
shall also qualify as a change in status.
(b) Notwithstanding subsection (a), the Participants may change an
election for health coverage during a Plan Year and make a new election that
corresponds with the special enrollment rights provided in American Health
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ("HIP AA"). Such change
shall take place on a prospective basis, unless retroactive coverage is both
permitted by HIP AA and elected by the participant. An election for prospective
coverage shall be effective either as of the date the Plan Administrator is notified
of the special enrollment event or the 1 st day of the month following the date of
the special enrollment event, at the Participant's direction. An election for
retroactive coverage shall be effective as of the day of the special enrollment
event. Payment for prospective or retroactive coverage shall be made in
accordance with procedures established by the administrator in a uniform and
nondiscriminatory manner.
(c) Notwithstanding subsection (a), in the event of a judgment, decree,
or order ("order") resulting from a divorce, legal separation, annulment, or change
in legal custody which requires accident or health coverage for a Participant's
child (including a foster child who is a dependent of the Participant):
(1) The Plan may change a Participant's election to provide coverage
for the child if the order requires coverage under the Participant's plan; or
(2) The Participant shall be permitted to change an election to cancel
coverage for the child if the order requires the former spouse to provide
coverage for such child, under that individual's plan if verification of such
coverage is actually provided to the Administrator.
(d) If the cost of a Benefit provided under the Plan increases or
decreases during a Plan Year, then the Plan shall automatically increase or
9
\388024\5 - # 501541 v5
Item # 33
Attachment number 2
Page 14 of 32
decrease, as the case may be, the Salary Redirections of all affected Participants
for such Benefit. Alternatively, if the cost of a benefit package option increases
significantly, the Administrator shall permit the affected Participants to either
make corresponding changes in their payments or revoke their elections and, in
lieu thereof, receive on a prospective basis coverage under another benefit
package option with similar coverage, or drop coverage prospectively if there is
no benefit package option with similar coverage.
A cost increase or decrease refers to an increase or decrease in the amount
of elective contributions under the Plan, whether resulting from an action taken by
the Employer or the insurer.
If the coverage under a Benefit is significantly curtailed or ceases during a
Plan Year, affected Participants may revoke their elections of such Benefit and, in
lieu thereof, elect to receive on a prospective basis coverage under another plan
with similar coverage, or drop coverage prospectively if no similar coverage is
offered.
If, during the period of coverage, a new benefit package option or other
coverage option is added, an existing benefit package option is significantly
improved, or an existing benefit package option or other coverage option is
eliminated, then the affected Participants may elect the newly-added option, or
elect another option if an option has been eliminated prospectively and make
corresponding election changes with respect to other benefit package options
providing similar coverage. In addition, those Eligible Employees who are not
participating in the Plan may opt to become Participants and elect the new or
newly improved benefit package option.
A Participant may make a prospective election change to add group health
coverage for the Participant, the Participant's spouse or dependent if such
individual loses group health coverage sponsored by a governmental or
educational institution, including a state children's health insurance program
under the Social Security Act, the Indian Health Service or a health program
offered by an Indian tribal government, a state health benefits risk pool, or a
foreign government group health plan.
A Participant may make a prospective election change that is on account
of and corresponds with a change made under the plan of a spouse's, former
spouse's or dependent's employer if (1) the cafeteria plan or other benefits plan of
the spouse's, former spouse's or dependent's employer permits its participants to
make a change; or (2) the cafeteria plan permits participants to make an election
for a period of coverage that is different from the period of coverage under the
cafeteria plan of a spouse's, former spouse's or dependent's employer.
A Participant may make a prospective election change that is on account
of and corresponds with a change by the Participant in the dependent care
provider. The availability of dependent care services from a new childcare
provider is similar to a new benefit package option becoming available. A cost
10
\388024\5 - # 501541 v5
Item # 33
Attachment number 2
Page 15 of 32
change is allowable in the Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account only if the
cost change is imposed by a dependent care provider who is not related to the
Participant, as defined in Code Section 152(a)(1) through (8).
A Participant shall not be permitted to change an election to the Health
Flexible Spending Account as a result of a cost or coverage change under any
health insurance benefits.
ARTICLE VI
HEAL TH FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNT
6.1 ESTABLISHMENT OF PLAN
This Health Flexible Spending Account is intended to qualify as a medical
reimbursement plan under Code Section 105 and shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with
such Code Section and the Treasury regulations thereunder. Participants who elect to participate
in this Health Flexible Spending Account may submit claims for the reimbursement of Medical
Expenses. All amounts reimbursed shall be periodically paid from amounts allocated to the
Health Flexible Spending Account. Periodic payments reimbursing Participants from the Health

the following events:

ARTICLE III
CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE PLAN
3.1 EMPLOYER CONTRIBUTION
The Employer shall make available to each Participant an Employer Contribution
in an amount to be determined by the Employer prior to the beginning of each Plan Year. Each
Participant's Employer Contribution shall be available to purchase Benefits as set forth in Section
4.1. The Employer's Contribution shall be made on behalf of the Participant on a pro rata basis
for each pay period. However, if such Participant fails to elect a Health Insurance Benefit
option, the Employer will automatically purchase an employee-only health insurance benefit for
such Participant whereby the Employer incurs the lowest premium payment expense available to
provide such health insurance benefit.
3.2 SALARY REDIRECTION
If a Participant's Employer Contribution is not sufficient to cover the total or
entire cost of Benefits or Premium Expenses he elects pursuant to Section 4.1, his Compensation
will be reduced in an amount equal to the difference between the cost of Benefits he elected and
the amount of Employer Contribution available to him, and this shall be the maximum amount of
salary redirection available under this Plan. Such reduction shall be his Salary Redirection,
which the Employer will use on his behalf, together with his Employer Contribution, to pay for
the Benefits he elected. The amount of such Salary Redirection shall be specified in the Salary
Redirection Agreement and shall be applicable for a Plan Year. Notwithstanding the above, for
new Participants, the Salary Redirection Agreement shall only be applicable from the first day of
the pay period following the Employee's entry date up to and including the last day of the Plan
Year.
Any Salary Redirection shall be determined prior to the beginning of a Plan Year
(subject to initial elections pursuant to Section 5.1) and prior to the end of the Election Period
and shall be irrevocable for such Plan Year. However, a Participant may revoke a Benefit
election or a Salary Redirection Agreement after the Plan Year has commenced and make a new
election with respect to the remainder of the Plan Year, if both the revocation and the new
election are on account of and consistent with a change in status and such other permitted events
as determined under Article V of the Plan and consistent with the rules and regulations of the
Department of the Treasury. Salary Redirection amounts shall be contributed on a pro rata basis
for each pay period during the Plan Year. All individual Salary Redirection Agreements are
deemed to be part of this Plan and incorporated by reference hereunder.
3.3 APPLICATION OF CONTRIBUTIONS
As soon as reasonably practical after each payroll period, the Employer shall
apply the Employer Contribution and Salary Redirection necessary to provide for the Benefits
elected by the affected Participants.

that Salary Redirections be contributed to the Plan by the Employer on behalf of an Employee on
a level and pro rata basis for each payroll period, the Employer and Administrator may
implement a procedure in which Salary Redirections are contributed throughout the Plan Year on
a periodic basis that is not pro rata for each payroll period.

Insurance Contracts is attached as Appendix A. The rights and conditions with

4.6 NONDISCRIMINATION REQUIREMENTS

employees which the Secretary of the Treasury finds not to be discriminatory in
favor of the group in whose favor discrimination may not occur under Code
Section 125.
7

Attachment number 3
Page 11 of 21
(b) If the Administrator deems it necessary to avoid discrimination or
possible taxation to either a group or groups of employees in whose favor
discrimination may not occur in violation of Code Section 125, it may, but shall
not be required to, reduce contributions or non-taxable Benefits in order to assure
compliance with this Section. Any act taken by the Administrator under this
Section shall be carried out in a uniform and nondiscriminatory manner. If the
Administrator decides to reduce contributions or non-taxable Benefits, it shall be
done in the following manner. First, the non-taxable Benefits of the affected
Participant (an employee who is highly compensated) who has the highest amount
of non-taxable Benefits for the Plan Year shall have his non-taxable Benefits
reduced until the discrimination tests set forth in this Section are satisfied or until
the amount of his non-taxable Benefits equals the non-taxable Benefits of the
affected Participant who has the second highest amount of non-taxable Benefits.
This process shall continue until the nondiscrimination tests set forth in this
Section are satisfied. With respect to any affected Participant who has had
Benefits reduced pursuant to this Section, the reduction shall be made
proportionately among insured Benefits. Contributions which are not utilized to
provide Benefits to any Participant by virtue of any administrative act under this
paragraph shall be forfeited and deposited into the benefit plan surplus.
ARTICLE V
PARTICIPANT ELECTIONS
5.1 INITIAL ELECTIONS
An Employee who meets the eligibility requirements of Section 2.1 on the first
day of, or during, a Plan Year may elect to participate in this Plan for all or the remainder of such
Plan Year, provided he elects to do so before his effective date of participation pursuant to
Section 2.2. Employees who become eligible after the open enrollment period begins will be
required to elect their benefit options within one week of the date in which they become eligible
to participate in the Plan. Each Participant may elect to be covered under a Health Insurance
Contract for the Participant, his or her spouse, and his or her Dependents. However, if such
Participant fails to elect a Health Insurance Benefit option, the Employer will automatically
purchase an employee-only health insurance benefit for such Participant whereby the Employer
incurs the lowest premium payment expense available to provide such health insurance benefit.
5.2 SUBSEQUENT ANNUAL ELECTIONS
During the Election Period prior to each subsequent Plan Year, each Participant
shall be given the opportunity to modify his election. An Employee who fails to modify his or
her election for the Plan Year following the Election Period shall be deemed to have made the
same election as the prior year and will have to wait until the next Election Period before again
electing to modify his or her election in the Plan, except as provided for in Section 5.3. Each
Participant may elect to be covered under a Health Insurance Contract for the Participant, his or
her spouse, and his or her Dependents. However, if such Participant fails to elect a Health
Insurance Benefit option, the Employer will automatically purchase an employee-only health

Item # 33
Attachment number 3
Page 12of21
insurance benefit for such Participant whereby the Employer incurs the lowest premium payment
expense available to provide such health insurance benefit.
5.3 CHANGE IN STATUS
(a) Any Participant may change a Benefit election after the Plan Year
(to which such election relates) has commenced and make new elections with
respect to the remainder of such Plan Year if, under the facts and circumstances, the
changes are necessitated by and are consistent with a change in status which is
acceptable under rules and regulations adopted by the Department of the Treasury,
the provisions of which are incorporated by reference. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, if the rules and regulations conflict with the provisions of this
Plan, then such rules and regulations shall control.
In general, a change in election is not consistent if the change in status is the
Participant's divorce, annulment or legal separation from a spouse, the death of a
spouse or dependent, or a dependent ceasing to satisfy the eligibility requirements
for coverage, and the Participant's election under the Plan is to cancel accident or
health insurance coverage for any individual other than the one involved in such
event. If the Participant's spouse or dependent loses eligibility for coverage, then a
Participant's election under the Plan will decrease coverage for that individual under
the Plan. In addition, if the Participant's spouse or dependent gains eligibility for
coverage, then a Participant's election under the Plan for coverage will increase for
that individual under the Plan.
Regardless of the consistency requirement, if the individual, the individual's
spouse, or dependent becomes eligible for continuation coverage under the
Employer's group health plan as provided in Public Health Service Act (42 USC
300bb-l et. seq.) or any similar state law, then the individual may elect to increase
payments under this Plan in order to pay for the continuation coverage. However,
this does not apply for COBRA eligibility due to divorce, annulment or legal
separation.
Any new election shall be effective at such time as the Administrator shall
prescribe, but not earlier than the first pay period beginning after the election is

(3) Employment Status: Any of the following events that change the
employment status of the Participant, spouse, or dependent: termination or
commencement of employment, a strike or lockout, commencement or
return from an unpaid leave of absence, or a change in worksite. In addition,
if the eligibility conditions of this Plan or other employee benefit plan of the
Employer of the Participant, spouse, or dependent depend on the
employment status of that individual and there is a change in that
individual's employment status with the consequence that the individual
becomes (or ceases to be) eligible under the plan, then that change
constitutes a change in employment under this subsection;
(4) Dependent satisfies or ceases to satisfy the eligibility requirements:
An event that causes the Participant's dependent to satisfy or cease to satisfy
the requirements for coverage due to attainment of age, student status, or
any similar circumstance; and
(5) Residency: A change in the place of residence of the Participant,
spouse or dependent, that would lead to a change in status (such as a loss of
HMO coverage).
(b) Notwithstanding subsection (a), the Participants may change an
election for health coverage during a Plan Year and make a new election that
corresponds with the special enrollment rights provided in American Health
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ("HIP AA"). Such change
shall take place on a prospective basis, unless retroactive coverage is both
permitted by HIP AA and elected by the participant. An election for prospective
coverage shall be effective either as of the date the Plan Administrator is notified
of the special enrollment event or the 1 st day of the month following the date of
the special enrollment event, at the Participant's direction. An election for
retroactive coverage shall be effective as of the day of the special enrollment
event. Payment for prospective or retroactive coverage shall be made in
accordance with procedures established by the administrator in a uniform and
nondiscriminatory manner.
(c) Notwithstanding subsection (a), in the event of a judgment, decree,
or order ("order") resulting from a divorce, legal separation, annulment, or change
in legal custody which requires accident or health coverage for a Participant's
child (including a foster child who is a dependent of the Participant):
(1) The Plan may change a Participant's election to provide coverage
for the child if the order requires coverage under the Participant's plan; or
(2) The Participant shall be permitted to change an election to cancel
coverage for the child if the order requires the former spouse to provide
coverage for such child, under that individual's plan if verification of such
coverage is actually provided to the Administrator.

(d) If the cost of a Benefit provided under the Plan increases or
decreases during a Plan Year, then the Plan shall automatically increase or
decrease, as the case may be, the Salary Redirections of all affected Participants
for such Benefit. Alternatively, if the cost of a benefit package option increases
significantly, the Administrator shall permit the affected Participants to either
make corresponding changes in their payments or revoke their elections and, in
lieu thereof, receive on a prospective basis coverage under another benefit
package option with similar coverage, or drop coverage prospectively if there is
no benefit package option with similar coverage.
A cost increase or decrease refers to an increase or decrease in the amount
of elective contributions under the Plan, whether resulting from an action taken by
the Employer or the insurer.
If the coverage under a Benefit is significantly curtailed or ceases during a
Plan Year, affected Participants may revoke their elections of such Benefit and, in
lieu thereof, elect to receive on a prospective basis coverage under another plan
with similar coverage, or drop coverage prospectively if no similar coverage is
offered.
If, during the period of coverage, a new benefit package option or other
coverage option is added, an existing benefit package option is significantly
improved, or an existing benefit package option or other coverage option is
eliminated, then the affected Participants may elect the newly-added option, or
elect another option if an option has been eliminated prospectively and make
corresponding election changes with respect to other benefit package options
providing similar coverage. In addition, those Eligible Employees who are not
participating in the Plan may opt to become Participants and elect the new or
newly improved benefit package option.
A Participant may make a prospective election change to add group health
coverage for the Participant, the Participant's spouse or dependent if such
individual loses group health coverage sponsored by a governmental or
educational institution, including a state children's health insurance program
under the Social Security Act, the Indian Health Service or a health program
offered by an Indian tribal government, a state health benefits risk pool, or a
foreign government group health plan.
A Participant may make a prospective election change that is on account
of and corresponds with a change made under the plan of a spouse's, former
spouse's or dependent's employer if (1) the cafeteria plan or other benefits plan of
the spouse's, former spouse's or dependent's employer permits its participants to
make a change; or (2) the cafeteria plan permits participants to make an election
for a period of coverage that is different from the period of coverage under the
cafeteria plan of a spouse's, former spouse's or dependent's employer.

by its legally constituted authority.
9.7 EMPLOYER'S PROTECTIVE CLAUSES
(a) Upon the failure of either the Participant or the Employer to obtain
the insurance contemplated by this Plan (whether as a result of negligence, gross

Social Security tax from such payments or reimbursements. However, such indemnification and
reimbursement shall not exceed the amount of additional federal and state income tax (plus any
penalties) that the Participant would have owed if the payments or reimbursements had been
made to the Participant as regular cash compensation, plus the Participant's share of any Social
Security tax that would have been paid on such compensation, less any such additional income
and Social Security tax actually paid by the Participant.

the Administrator to maintain any fund or segregate any amount for the benefit of any
Participant, and no Participant or other person shall have any claim against, right to, or security
or other interest in, any fund, account or asset of the Employer from which any payment under

Council Chambers - City Hall
SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize assumption of the contracts to purchase Royalty Theater and the Lokey building; approve the memorandum of understanding
between the City and Ruth Eckerd Hall and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same; authorize estimated closing costs not to
exceed $90,000, and authorize an additional $250,000 to be paid to Ruth Eckerd Hall for theater preparation costs including preliminary
architectural and construction manager services, for a total estimated cost of $2.65 million.
SUMMARY:
The City will assume the purchase contracts for 403 (purchase price of $975,000.00) and 401 (purchase price of $1,335.000.00)
Cleveland Street and will purchase said properties and cover all closing costs.
The City and Ruth Eckerd Hall will develop lease and management agreements similar to the existing agreement for the operation of
Ruth Eckerd Hall recognizing however that it is not the intent that the City subsidize the ongoing operations of the Theater following
rehabilitation of the facility.
Ruth Eckerd Hall estimates the total project cost to be $14.2 million broken down as follows: $2.4 million for purchase and closing
costs, including Ruth Eckerd Hall out of pocket due diligence expenditures ($13,920.00), $6.8 million for construction and renovation
and $5 million for an endowment fund.
In addition, presenting some performances in the Capitol/Royalty Theater during the pre-construction period will help generate interest
in the project. During the pre-construction period, Ruth Eckerd Hall will lease the facility from the City for $1.00 for each use. Ruth
Eckerd Hall will be responsible for all costs associated with each event, including staffing, set up and clean up. The net profit for each
event will be split equally between the City and Ruth Eckerd Hall. The City will assist Ruth Eckerd Hall in getting the facility ready for
use prior to commencement of remodeling. The City will advance/provide funding following closing not to exceed $250,000 (to be
netted from the above cost estimates from the City's/public funding total of $6.2 million) for cleaning the theater, clearing the theater of
unwanted and unnecessary debris and clutter, purchasing stage, lighting, sound and projection equipment and other necessary items to
ensure a comfortable and safe environment with adequate equipment to be able to mount performances. Equipment purchased would be
able to be used in the final project. Ruth Eckerd Hall would carry appropriate insurance up to entertainment and performing arts
industry standards for such use of the theater and shall indemnify and hold harmless the City for any losses that occur as a result of Ruth
Eckerd Hall's use of the theater.
Ruth Eckerd Hall will accept responsibility for the construction and not seek any additional funding beyond what is stated in this
document for the construction and renovation of the theater and the adjacent building.
In raising endowment funds, it is the intent for Ruth Eckerd Hall to operate the facility without any ongoing annual subsidy from the
City.
Funding will be provided by the transfer of $2.65 million from the unappropriated retained earnings of the Special Development Fund to
establish a new capital improvement project 315-93614, Royalty Theatre Acquisition at first quarter.

Ruth Eckerd Hall Royalty Theater Memorandum of Understanding
This Memorandum of Understanding is made and entered into this day of
November, 2008, between the City of Clearwater, a municipal corporation of the State of
Florida, hereinafter referred to as the ("City") and Ruth Eckerd Hall, Inc. a Florida non-
profit corporation, hereinafter referred to as ("Ruth Eckerd Hall ").
This Memorandum of Understanding is entered into by the City and the Corporation for
the purpose of formalizing the intent of the Parties relating to the responsibilities and
obligations regarding the purchase, rehabilitation, operation and maintenance of the
Royalty Theater and the Lokey building (403 and 401 Cleveland Street).
It is the intent for Ruth Eckerd Hall to eventually take on the responsibility of the
renovation and operation of the Royalty Theater. To that extent:
1. The City will assume the purchase contracts for the 403 (purchase price of
$975,000.00) and 401 (purchase price of$I,335.000.00) Cleveland Street and
will purchase said properties and cover all closing costs.
2. The City and Ruth Eckerd Hall will develop lease and management
agreements similar to the existing agreement for the operation of Ruth Eckerd
Hall recognizing however that it is not the intent that the City subsidize the
ongoing operations of the Theater following rehabilitation of the facility.
3. Ruth Eckerd Hall estimates the total project cost to be $14.2 million broken
down as follows: $2.4 million for purchase and closing costs, including Ruth
Eckerd Hall out of pocket due diligence expenditures (not to exceed
$13,920.00), $6.8 million for construction and renovation and $5 million for
an endowment fund.
4. Ruth Eckerd Hall Boards have voted to move forward with a campaign to
raise $8 million of the $14.5 million needed for this project. Ruth Eckerd
Hall's $8 million commitment is contingent upon a total City/public
commitment of $6.2 million toward the project.
5. Ruth Eckerd Hall and the City will work cooperatively to identify and obtain
other public funding sources of $3.8 million, which will reduce the City's
contribution toward the construction and renovation, beyond the initial
purchase price and closing costs of $2.4 million.
6. In addition, presenting some performances in the Capitol/Royalty Theater
during the pre-construction period will help generate interest in the project.
During the pre-construction period, Ruth Eckerd Hall will lease the facility
from the City for $1.00 for each use. Ruth Eckerd Hall will be responsible for
all costs associated with each event, including staffing, set up and clean up.
The net profit for each event will be split equally between the City and Ruth

Eckerd Hall. The City will assist Ruth Eckerd Hall in getting the facility ready
for use prior to commencement of remodeling. The City will advance/provide
funding following closing not to exceed $250,000 (to be netted from the
above cost estimates from the City's/public funding total of $6.2 million) for
cleaning the theater, clearing the theater of unwanted and unnecessary debris
and clutter, purchasing stage, lighting, sound and projection equipment and
other necessary items to ensure a comfortable and safe environment with
adequate equipment to be able to mount performances, and preliminary
architectural and construction manager services. Equipment purchased would
be able to be used in the final project. Ruth Eckerd Hall would carry
appropriate insurance up to entertainment and performing arts industry
standards for such use of the theater and shall indemnify and hold harmless
the City for any losses that occur as a result of Ruth Eckerd Hall's use of the
theater.
7. It is estimated that it will take a minimum of two and a half years to raise the
$8 million noted in number 4, commission construction drawings and
complete the renovation and construction of the facility.
8. The City will work with Ruth Eckerd Hall to vacate the alleyway behind the
Capitol/Royalty Theater to allow for expansion of the stage house by the time
construction is to commence. The Parties recognize that there are factors
outside of City control that affect the vacating. In the event the alley cannot
be vacated, it is the intent of the Parties to move forward with the
rehabilitation under a modified plan.
9. Ruth Eckerd Hall will accept responsibility for the construction and not seek
any additional funding beyond what is stated in this document for the
construction and renovation of the theater and the adjacent building.
10. In raising endowment funds, it is the intent for Ruth Eckerd Hall to operate
the facility without any ongoing annual subsidy from the City.
11. Until such time as Ruth Eckerd Hall is ready to commence the construction
and renovation of the facility and execute a lease/management agreement, the
City shall be responsible for any monthly operating costs, which we expect to
be minimal (utilities-electric, water, sewer, minor maintenance and
insurance).
12. Rent (at this time approximately $5,500 per month in a triple net lease)
collected from the tenant that occupies 401 Cleveland Street shall be paid to
and retained by the City commencing as of closing.
13. Once the renovation of the Capitol Royalty Theater is complete, Ruth Eckerd
Hall will be responsible for the ongoing annual maintenance for the normal
operation of the facility including, but not limited to normal wear and tear for

sound, lighting and theatrical equipment, theater seating, electrical and HV AC
system maintenance, etc. Since the construction will install mostly new
systems and equipment, it is believed that there would be no major capital
improvements required for at least five years. The City will provide funds for
major capital improvement items including roof, total HV AC systems, etc. A
list will be established and mutually agreed upon of the types of capital
improvements that would be part of the City's capital improvement budget.

PENNY FOR PINELLAS -II
Infrastructure Tax, or Penny For Pinelias, revenues represent a 1 % discretionary sales surtax imposed by the
Pinelias County Board of County Commissioners to be distributed between Pine lias County and it's
municipalities by inter-local agreements. The sales tax increase from 6% to 7% was first approved by
voters at a countywide referendum in November 1989 (effective February 1990) for a ten year period, and
approved for a second ten year period by the voters in March 1997 (effective February 2000). In March
2007 the voters approved a third extension for an additional ten year period (effective February 2010).
Projects which will be funded by this third extension are not included in this budget. Council and staff
have yet to determine how the individual projects will be funded in that ten years.
Per Florida statutes, these funds can be used for the purpose of any fixed capital expenditure or fixed
capital outlay associated with the construction, reconstruction, or improvement of public facilities which
have a life expectancy of five or more years and any land acquisition, land improvement, design, and
engineering costs related thereto.
Funds can also be used for the purchase of a fire department vehicle, an emergency medical service
vehicle, a police department vehicle, or any other vehicle, and such equipment necessary to outfit the
vehicle for its official use or equipment that has a life expectancy of at least five years.
Proceeds may also be pledged for the purpose of servicing new bond indebtedness incurred pursuant to
law. In no case may a jurisdiction issue bonds more frequently than once per year.
Surtax proceeds may not be used to supplant or replace user fees or to reduce ad valorem taxes existing
prior to the levy of the surtax.
The average growth in Infrastructure Tax revenue based upon the historical receipts for the last ten fiscal
years has been 2.8%. This has been lower than the 5% annual projected growth provided by Pine lias
County. In August of 2002 Pine lias County provided revised projections of 4.2% per annum beginning in FY
'05. However, actual receipts in FY 07 and FY 08 have come in lower than those projections. Therefore,
the growth factor for fiscal years 2009 and 2010 estimates are projected at the 2.8%.

Fiscal Year
Infrastructure Tax, or Penny For Pinellas, revenues represent a 1 % discretionary sales surtax imposed by the
Pinellas County Board of County Commissioners to be distributed between Pinellas County and it's municipalities
by inter-local agreement. The sales tax increase from 6% to 7% was first approved by voters at a countywide
referendum in November 1989 (effective February 1990) for a ten year period, and approved for a second ten
year period by the voters in March 1997 (effective February 2000).
Per Florida Statutes, these funds can be used for the purpose of any fixed capital expenditure or fixed capital
outlay associated with the construction, reconstruction, or improvement of public facilities which have a life
expectancy of five or more years and any land acquisition, land improvement, design, and engineering costs
related thereto.
Funds can also be used for the purchase of a fire department vehicle, an emergency medical service vehicle, a
police department vehicle, or any other vehicle, and such equipment necessary to outfit the vehicle for its official
use or equipment that has a life expectancy of at least five years.
Proceeds may be pledged for the purpose of servicing new bond indebtedness incurred pursuant to law. In no
case may a jurisdiction issue bonds more frequently than once per year.
Surtax proceeds may not be used to supplant or replace user fees or to reduce ad valorem taxes existing prior to
the levy of the surtax.
The average growth in Infrastructure Tax revenue based upon the historical receipts for the last five fiscal years is
5.7%. This is right in line with the 5% annual projected growth in Infrastructure tax revenue provided by Pine lias
County.

Penny for Pinellas Extension
2010 -2020
In 1989 the "Penny for Pinellas" (infrastructure) sales tax was originally approved at countywide referendum for a
ten-year period starting in 1990. Soon after, on September 21, 1989, the Clearwater City Commission approved an
interlocal agreement with Pinellas County for the distribution of the net proceeds of the 1 % discretionary sales
surtax. About one-half of the money was used for County projects and the remainder was divided among the
municipalities within Pinellas County.
In the spring of 1997, county voters approved the extension of the "Penny for Pinellas" tax for a second ten-year
period ending in the year 2010.
Since the inception of Penny in 1990, the City has received approximately $120 million of Penny dollars. This has
provided a major economical boost to the City's economy, offering a means to provide facilities and service, most
which would have never been achievable without this resource.
Some of the major City of Clearwater projects that have been funded from receipts to date include:
. Memorial Causeway Bridge
. 11ainLibrary
. Bright House Stadium
. Sand Key Fire Station
. Northwest Fire Station
. Clearwater Mall Fire Station
. Countryside Recreation Center
. Ross Norton Complex
. North Greenwood Recreation and Aquatics Center
. Clearwater Beach Recreation Complex
. Pier 60
. Pier 60 Park
. Pier 60 Entranceway Approaches
. Municipal Service Building
. Harborview Center
. Clearwater Pass Bridge
. Drew Street Widening
. Countryside Boulevard Widening
. Stevenson Creek Improvements
. Landmark Drive Extension
Other projects planned for the remainder of the current ten-year cycle include:
. Reconstruction of the Main Fire Station #45 (Downtown)
. Fire Station #48 (Belcher Road) Renovation and Replacement
. Druid Road Improvements
. Downtown Streetscaping
. Moruingside Recreation Center Replacement
. Long Center Infrastructure Improvements

Facts about the Penny for Pinellas tax:
. More than 35% of the funds come from tourists, seasonal residents and non-property owners.
. It is equitable - everyone pays their fair share of preserving, protecting, and improving our community.
. Necessities, such as groceries and medicines, are NOT taxed.
. Only the first $5,000 of any single purchase (such as a car) is taxed.
Current Plans for Penny
According to Pinellas County estimate, the City of Clearwater will receive approximately $138,855,000 of
proceeds over the third ten-year period beginning in the year 2010.
The following pages detail the City Manager's list of recommended projects to the City Council for infrastructure
projects during this next ten-year cycle. All of these projects support the City Council's adopted vision for the
City of Clearwater.

NEIGHBORHOOD PARKS RENOVATIONS & IMPROVEMENTS
SCOPE:
One of the most important parts of the Park and Recreation Master Plan is the
maintenance and renovation of existing parks, whether they are neighborhood,
community, special facilities or resource-based parks. Several parks in the
existing inventory will need to be renovated over the next ten years. This project
will provide for much needed renovation to several of the neighborhood parks
throughout the city. Some of the facilities and designs at the older parks are over
30 years old and in need of major renovation.

RECREATION TRAILS
SCOPE:
The project will provide for the completion of the City wide trail system.
Attention is given to planning trails that will connect neighborhoods with existing
trails such as the East West Trail, Progress Energy Trail and Pinellas Trail. The
City is in a major development phase for many current trail projects including the
East West Trail, Mandalay Channel Pedestrian Bridge, Memorial Causeway Trail
and the Turner Street Druid Road Trail. However, there are many additional trails
that are being proposed by this project which include the Landmark Trail,
Edgewater Drive Trail, Bayshore Drive Trail South, Courtney Campbell Parkway
Trail, and East Avenue Trail improvements in the Downtown corridor to give all
citizen residents access to the trail system.
The City will be seeking other State and Federal funding sources to match the
Penny funds to make the trail system a reality. There appears to be a great deal of
interest in providing alternative transportation options and trails are one of the key
ingredients in accomplishing this goal.

COUNTRYSIDE BRANCH LIBRARY EXPANSION AND RENOVATION
SCOPE:
The Countryside Branch is the busiest facility in the Clearwater Library System.
Built in 1988 with only 15,000 square feet of space, the library receives nearly
350,000 visits each year from residents and visitors.
The proposed project would include the demolition of the existing building and
the construction of a two-story facility on the current site, basically doubling the
space while maintaining the current footprint. The expanded facility would
include a separate children's section as well as an enlarged section for computer
technology and public access.
COST:

EAST BRANCH LIBRARY EXPANSION AND RENOVATION
SCOPE:
The East Branch is the oldest facility in the Clearwater Library System. Built just
as computers were beginning to be incorporated into library service, the building
is not designed for the technological needs of today, or for the heavy usage it
receives.
The proposed project could include the demolition and construction and/or
reconstruction of the existing facility to provide a two-story facility on the current
site, basically doubling the space while maintaining the current footprint.
Another option would be the possibility of developing a joint use library with the
Clearwater campus of SPC as an alternative to expanding the existing facility.
Either way, the expanded facility would provide larger youth and computer
sections.
