persons with disabilities to participate in the development of Local Affordable Housing Plan and
housing programs, with particular emphasis on persons of very low to moderate income.
Information and records relating to our proposed use of funds is made easily accessible to the
public for review.
The Citizen Participation Plan established an affordable housing advisory committee referred to
as the Neighborhood Affordable Housing Advisory Board (NAHAB) consisting of nine

related to affordable housing and those who are advocates of affordable housing. The committee
includes one citizen who is actively engaged as follows:

SUPPORT SERVICES:
Clearwater Neiihborhood Services Division ofPlannin~ and DevelOJ;)ment Services
To strengthen, stabilize and improve City of Clearwater neighborhoods the City Commission
established the Neighborhood Services Division, empowering residents to enhance their quality
of life and to develop a partnership for progress between neighborhoods and other divisions of
City government. In a regional metropolitan such as the Tampa Bay area, citizens have many
residential options, many of which are in new housing of planned unit developments, Clearwater
desires to recognize the unique quality of its neighborhoods, provide associations with the tools
necessary to improve and to gain a reputation as a diverse, safe and enjoyable place to live.
The Neighborhood Services Division assists neighborhood residents at varied levels of their
development through technical assistance, liaison with City departments for problem solving and
coordination of meetings to publicize City projects and activities. The Division has developed a
phased approach for neighborhood planning that target neighborhood districts immediately
surrounding the downtown area of the City. The district approach to neighborhood planning will
be expanded to six other districts as the Division' s staff is expanded.
The Neighborhood Services Division has recognized that most property in the City of Clearwater. .'
is residential and a component of a larger neighborhood unit. The maintenance and values of
these areas must be a priority on a continuing basis. Absent signiftcant attention, property values
will fall and services costs will increase, leading to severe budget constraints and private
disinvestment.

Clearwater Homeless Intervention Proiect (CHIP)
The City of Clearwater's Plan Forecast of Needs adopted effective October I, 1995 and effective
for five years determined that emergency shelters have a high priority need level for our
community. At a public hearing several homeless service providers addressed their concerns and
identified four priority issues:
· emergency and transitional housing availability
. employment services
· transportation to and from work and
· supportive services.
The Clearwater Homeless Intervention Project center was constructed in 1997 funded in part
with Community Development Block Grant and provides an emergency overnight shelter facility
for individuals and families to begin to improve their lives. Each homeless client must'
participate in the Salvation Army's Homeless Intervention Program which includes case worker
review and management. The average stay at the emergency shelter is eight days; then the client
is placed in a transitional housing facility.
The unique aspect of including a community policing substation at the site adds security for
both the clients and the neighborhood. The Clearwater Police Department and St. Vincent de
Paul Society has established a registration program at the soup kitchen on site. This registration
program requires all persons to provided personal picture identification and information.
Anyone refusing to comply cannot return to the Soup Kitchen for any services, including meals.
