Re:
Cabana Club
Dear Mr. Reynolds,
Pursuant to your request, I have prepared a real property appraisal consulting
assignment on the above referenced property. I have made a personal inspection of
the area and have conducted the necessary research in order to provide you with a
consulting opinion as of the date of valuation. The report is written in summary format
and my work files are an integral part of this valuation and are hereby incorporated by
reference.
The purpose of the consulting assignment was to study a number of factors. The first
analysis was to determine if the change in use from a restaurant to a boutique hotel
would have any affect on property values for the condominium uses in the area. The
next section of the study was to determine if a thirty-eight room boutique hotel were to
be built per the current plans and specifications what impact would the building have on
the surrounding properties. The function of this report is understood to be for your use
in future negotiations with the City of Clearwater permitting officials. Opinions and
conclusions were developed and this report has been prepared in conformity with
Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice, Standard 5; and the Code of
Ethics of the Appraisal Institute.
The report is intended for the use of Mr. Reynolds and his representatives or assignees.
The date of this report is August 11, 2008; the effective date of the analysis is August 7,
2008. As a result of my investigation and analysis described in the body of this report,
my consulting opinion is that the change in use from a restaurant with a rooftop lounge
to a boutique hotel will not impact property values in the general market area. It is also
my opinion that a number of unit's views of the Gulf of Mexico may be impacted by the
development of the boutique hotel. These units are located in the Harbour South
Condominium and in the Isle of Sand Key Condominium.

It is my opinion that the change in use from a restaurant with a rooftop lounge to a six-
story boutique hotel will not have an unfavorable affect on the market area. However,
based on the analysis within this report, it is my opinion that the partial diminution in
value to the fifteen affected units due to the proposed hotel and the subsequent loss of
the view amenity of the Gulf of Mexico would be in the range of 5% to 10%. The
impacted units would be the southern two most units in the Harbour South building on
floors three thru six, southernmost unit on floor seven, and the units in the northwest
corner of Isle of Sand Key on floors four thru nine.
The technique utilized within this analysis is a paired sales analysis. A paired sales
analysis may be defined as a quantitative technique used to identify and measure
adjustments to the sale prices of comparable properties; to apply this technique; sales
of reasonably comparable properties are analyzed to isolate a single characteristic's
effect on value. In the first section of this assignment, the single characteristic will be
condominiums adjacent to or within close proximity to freestanding restaurants versus
condominiums adjacent to or within close proximity to motels or hotels. In the second
section of this analysis, the characteristic will be the loss of the view of the Gulf of
Mexico.
It is important to note that this is the letter of transmittal of a real property appraisal
consulting report. The appraisal consulting report is attached hereto.

Clearwater Florida. The site, existing improvements and proposed improvements are
further described within their respective sections of this report.
PURPOSE AND INTENDED USE OF THE APPRAISAL CONSULTING REPORT
The purpose of this appraisal consulting report is to study the uses surrounding
condominiums within close proximity to restaurant uses, motels, hotels and other
commercial uses. The report will also study the impact on condominiums with views of
the Gulf of Mexico and without such views. The report is prepared for Mr. Thomas E.
Reynolds, Esquire. The report may possibly be used as part of Mr. Reynolds
presentation to the City of Clearwater for possible zoning uses or variances.
DEFINITION OF MARKET VALUE

market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller, each acting
prudently, knowledgeably and assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus.
Implicit in this definition is consummation of a sale as of a specified date and passing
the title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby:
. Buyer and seller are typically motivated;
. Both parties are well informed or well advised and each acting in what he
considers his own best interest;
. A reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market;
. Payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial
arrangements comparable thereto;
. The price represents the normal consideration for the property sold
unaffected by special or creative funding or sales concessions granted by
anyone associated with the sale.
PROPERTY RIGHTS STUDIED
The property rights studied is the fee simple interest as of August 7, 2008. It is
assumed that title to the properties studied is good and marketable. All rights and

COMPETENCY STATEMENT
I have significant experience studying similar issues to meet the competency
requirements of Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice.
APPARENT OWNER OF RECORD
Per information supplied by Mr. Reynolds, Legg Mason Real Estate Investors, Inc., the
new owners of Belleview Biltmore Hotel property, holds a long term lease on the
Cabana Club property which is the focus of this report.
DATE OF VALUATION
The effective date of the appraisal is August 7, 2008. The date of inspection was
August 7, 2008 and numerous previous and subsequent dates.
SCOPE OF THE CONSULTING ASSIGNMENT
The terminology "Scope of the Work" means the extent of the process of collecting,
confirming, and reporting the data. Standards of real property appraisal consulting
impose a responsibility on the appraiser to determine the extent of the work of the
report, in relation to the significance of the appraisal consulting problem. The data,
which becomes useable and reportable is analyzed, considered and adjusted, if
necessary, and discussed relative to comparability. A diligent effort was made to
acquire all pertinent data in respect to the items studied in this report.
The subject property and market area were inspected on numerous occasions. All
sales considered were inspected (exterior) and thoroughly analyzed. All conclusions
are based upon my analysis of what might be expected in the subject property's
competitive market. The appraiser's files are an integral part of this analysis, and are
hereby incorporated by reference. The client, property owners, and other interested
parties are quite familiar with the subject property's location, the surrounding
neighborhood, market area, and other such general information. By definition, the
purpose of this consulting report precludes use by members of the general public for
purposes other than the purpose of this report. Therefore, this is a summary report in
that information considered to be general in nature has been abbreviated in the interest
of pertinence and clarity.
The purpose of the consulting assignment was to consider if a change in use from a
restaurant with a rooftop lounge to a six-story, 38-room boutique hotel would cause any
impact on the surrounding properties. The assignment will also consider if the six story
building were to be built per the current specifications, would there be any impact to the
properties that presently have a view of the Gulf of Mexico. Therefore, it was necessary
to study condominiums within close proximity to restaurant buildings and pair the sales
to condominiums that are not adjacent to or within close proximity to restaurant
buildings. The sales considered for this section will be sales toward the southern end of
Clearwater Beach in an area generally referred to as Clearwater Point, condominium

sales in the northern section of Sand Key within close proximity to the Sheraton Sand
Key and Marriott Hotels, and other sales in the general Clearwater Beach area. Also
considered were additional sales from Clearwater Beach southerly to the Saint
Petersburg Beach area of Pinellas County.
The next analysis was to estimate if properties that had open views of the Gulf of
Mexico (basically on the eastern side of Gulf Boulevard) appreciated at a rate similar to
the competing projects after a high-rise building were built on the western side of Gulf
Boulevard. The studied area for this section of the analysis was The Harbour
Condominium project before and after the construction of the Ultimar project.
The final section of this consulting report was to estimate if condominiums with views of
the Gulf of Mexico sell higher than condominiums with different views and the impact on
a condominiums due to the loss of such view. In this section of the analysis, the studied
areas are units in the Harbour South condominium with Gulf of Mexico views paired to
sales without such views; and condominiums in the Isle of Sand Key with Gulf of Mexico
views versus units in Isle of Sand Key without Gulf of Mexico views.
The data will be discussed is separate sections of this report.
PROFESSIONAL ASSISTANCE
Mr. Michael L. Sullivan SRA, State-Certified General Appraiser license number RZ820,
assisted in the data collection and verification of the sales considered within this report.
Mrs. Cyndi Tarapani vice president of Florida Design Consultants and Mr. Richard J.

EXPOSURE TIME
The Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal, Third Edition, defines "exposure time" as:
1. The time a property remains on the market.
2. The estimated length of time the property interest being appraised would have been
offered on the market prior to the hypothetical consummation of a sale at market
value on the effective date of the appraisal; a retrospective estimate based upon an
analysis of past events assuming a competitive and open market. Exposure time is
always presumed to occur prior to the effective date of the appraisal. The overall
concept of reasonable exposure encompasses not only adequate, sufficient and
reasonable time but also adequate, sufficient and reasonable effort. Exposure time
is different for various types of real estate and value ranges and under various
market conditions.
Based on the foregoing, it is my opinion that a reasonable exposure time for the
properties considered here within would be in the range of six to twelve months.

ENVIRONMENTAL DISCLAIMER
The value estimated is based on the assumption that the property is not negatively
affected by the existence of hazardous substances or detrimental environmental
conditions, unless otherwise stated in this report. The appraiser is not an expert in the
identification of hazardous substances or detrimental environmental conditions. The
appraiser's routine inspection of and inquiries about the subject property did not develop
any information that indicated any apparent significant hazardous substances or
detrimental environmental conditions, which would affect the property negatively unless
otherwise stated in this report. It is possible that tests and inspections made by a
qualified hazardous substance and environmental expert would reveal the existence of
hazardous substances or detrimental environmental conditions on or around the
property that would negatively affect its value.

ZONING
The Cabana Club is zoned commercial by the City of Clearwater; the surrounding
properties are zoned high density residential.
IMPROVEMENTS
The Cabana Club improvements consist of a 13,534 square foot structure with 520
square foot carport and various open porches. The improvements are presently used
as a restaurant with a rooftop lounge. The proposed improvements are a six-story hotel
containing 38 rooms and an enclosed restaurant with a total height in the range of 84
feet to the peak of the roof.
THE ANALYTICAL PROCESS
This assignment is an appraisal consulting report. An appraisal consulting report is
defined by the Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal 4th Edition as, the act or process of
developing an analysis, recommendation, or opinion to solve a problem, where an
opinion of value is a component of the analysis leading to the assignment results.
Approaches emploved
The technique considered in this report is a paired data analysis. A paired sales
analysis is defined by the Dictionary of Real Estate Appraisal 4th Edition as a
quantitative technique used to identify and measure adjustments to the sale prices or
rents of comparable properties; to apply this technique, sales or rental data on nearly
identical properties are analyzed to isolate a single characteristic's effect on value or
rent.
Approaches not considered applicable
The Cost and Income Capitalization Approaches will not be employed.

ANAL YSIS
The purpose of the consulting assignment was to consider if a change in use from a
restaurant with a rooftop lounge to a six-story boutique hotel would cause any impact on
the surrounding properties. The assignment will also consider if the six story building
were to be built per the current specifications, would there be any impact to the
properties that presently have a view of the Gulf of Mexico. Therefore, it was necessary
to study condominiums within close proximity to restaurant buildings and pair the sales
to condominiums that are not adjacent to or within close proximity to restaurant
buildings. The sales considered for this section will be sales toward the southern end of
Clearwater Beach in an area generally referred to as Clearwater Point, sales of
condominiums within close proximity to the Sheraton Sand Key Resort and Marriott
Hotel on Sand Key, and other sales in the general Clearwater Beach area. Also
considered were additional sales from Clearwater Beach southerly to the Saint
Petersburg Beach area of Pinellas County.
The sales in the Clearwater Point section of Clearwater Beach are as follows:
Sales with water views within close proximity to the Shells Restaurant:

Based on the previous pairings the restaurant use does not appear to cause any
measurable external obsolescence.
To estimate if a hotel use compared to a restaurant use will have any negative impact
on surrounding condominium uses numerous pairings were available. The control
project was The Grande Condominium project on Sand Key, which is located next to the
Sheraton Sand Key Resort and across the street from the Marriott Hotel and Columbia
Restaurant. Sales in The Grande Condominium project were paired to condominium
sales in the Meridian condominium project. The pairings are as follows:

The next analysis was to estimate if properties that had open views of the Gulf of
Mexico, basically on the eastern side of Gulf Boulevard appreciated at a rate similar to
the competing projects after a high-rise building was built on the western side of Gulf
Boulevard. The studied area for this section of the analysis was the Harbour North
Condominium before and after the construction of the Ultimar project. The Harbour
project is located on the eastern side of Gulf Boulevard, whereas the Ultimar project is
on the western side of Gulf Boulevard. Prior to the construction of the Ultimar project
the Harbour North building had an unobstructed view of the Gulf of Mexico. The Ultimar
project was built circa 1996. This section of the consulting report will consider sale-
resale of units in the Harbour project prior to the Ultimar project to re-sale after the
completion of the Ultimar project. The appreciation analysis will be compared to a
project within close proximity to the Harbour project (Marina Del Rey) to measure if the
development of the Ultimar project had any negative impact on the appreciation.

Comparing the appreciation in the Harbour North building before and after the
construction of the Ultimar building to the Marina Del Ray project indicated that the
development of the Ultimar building had a slight negative impact on the monthly
appreciation.
The final section of this consulting report was to estimate if condominiums with views of
the Gulf of Mexico sell higher than condominiums with different views and the impact on
a condominium due to the loss of such view. In this section of the analysis the studied
areas are units in the Harbour South condominium with Gulf of Mexico views paired to
sales without such views and condominiums in the Isle of Sand Key with Gulf of Mexico
views versus the units in Isle of Sand Key without Gulf of Mexico views.
In the Harbour South building the southern most units would be units numbered 05,
consequently the northern most units would be 01 numbered units. The southern most
units have the most Gulf of Mexico views.

The first pairing, units 405 to 403 indicated a negative impact of 7.57%, whereas the
second pairing units 405 to 401 did not indicate a view impact.
The next studied project is the Isle of Sand Key Project. In this project the views are as

CONCLUSIONS
The units that could be impacted by the development of the six-story hotel are the
southern most two units in the Harbour South building and the northwest units in the Isle
of Sand Key building. Ms. Tarapani has indicated that the first and second floors of the
Harbour South building are impacted by the existing building and the units on floors
three thru seven could be affected by the development of the proposed hotel. Mrs.
Tarapani also indicated that there is no parking under the Isle of Sand Key building and

that the first three floors of the Isle of Sand Key building are impacted by the existing
restaurant building and floors four thru nine will be affected by the proposed building.
Based on the analysis within this report, it is my opinion that the impact to the fifteen
affected units due to the proposed hotel and the subsequent loss of the view amenity of
the Gulf of Mexico would be in the range of 5% to 10%. The impacted units would be
the southern two most units in the Harbour South building on floors three thru six,
southern most unit on floor seven, and the units in the northwest corner of Isle of Sand
Key on floors four thru nine.
COST APPROACH
The Cost Approach is an appraisal technique in which the indicated value of a property
is derived by estimating the replacement of reproduction cost new of the improvements,
deducting the estimated depreciation from all causes, and then adding the market value
of the land. The theoretical basis for the Cost Approach is reproduction cost. The Cost
Approach is based on the premise that the value of a property can be indicated by the
current reproduction or replacement cost, less the amount of depreciation evident from
all causes, plus the value of the site or land and entrepreneurial profit. The Cost
Approach will not be employed.
INCOME CAPITALIZATION APPROACH
The Income Capitalization Approach is that method or procedure in appraisal analysis,
which converts anticipated benefits (dollar income or amenities) to be derived from the
ownership of the property into a value estimate. In this approach, anticipated future
income and/or reversions are discounted to a present worth figure through the
capitalization process. Capitalization is the procedure of expressing such anticipated
future benefits of ownership in dollars and processing them into a present worth at a
rate which is attracting purchase capital to similar investments. As employed in the
Income Approach, this procedure uses a projection of periodic net income as the
numerator with a capitalization rate as the denominator in an equation for value. This
process is most directly applicable to the appraisal of the value of an income-producing
property because a primary benefit of such ownership is in the form of net rent, and the
expectation of this income is a primary motivation for the purchase of income real
estate. The Income Capitalization Approach will be omitted.

RECONCILIATION AND FINAL CONCLUSION
Based on the analysis within this report, it is my opinion that the partial diminution in
value to the fifteen affected units due to the proposed hotel and the subsequent loss of
the view amenity of the Gulf of Mexico would be in the range of 5% to 10%. The
impacted units would be the two southern most units in the Harbour South building on
floors three thru six, the southern most unit on floor seven, and the units in the
northwest corner of Isle of Sand Key on floors four thru nine. The impacted units in
Harbour South Condominium are units 304, 305, 404, 405, 504, 505, 604, 605, and
702. The impacted units in Isle of Sand Key are units 402, 502, 602, 702, 802, and 902.
It is my opinion that the change in use from a restaurant with a rooftop lounge to a six-
story boutique hotel will not have an unfavorable effect on the market area.

provided by governmental authorities and employees.
. Certain data used in compiling this report was furnished by the client, his
counsel, employees, and/or agent, or from other sources believed reliable.
However, no liability or responsibility may be assumed for complete accuracy.
. An effort was made to verify each comparable sale noted in the report. There
are times when it is impossible to confirm a sale with the parties involved in the
transaction; all sales are confirmed through public records or closing attorney.
. No furniture, furnishings, or equipment, unless specifically indicated herein has
been included in my value conclusions. Only the real estate has been
considered.
. No survey of the property was made or caused to be made by the appraiser. It is

with public records for accuracy. Drawings in this report are to assist the reader.
in visualizing the property and are only an approximation of grounds or building
plan.
. Description and condition of physical improvements, if any described herein, are
based on visual observation. As no engineering tests were conducted, no liability
can be assumed for soundness of structural members.
. The appraiser has inspected improvements. Unless otherwise noted, subject
improvements are assumed to be free of termites, dry rot, wet rot, or other
infestation. Inspection by a reputable pest control company is recommended for
any existing improvement.
. No responsibility is assumed by the appraiser for applicability of "concurrency
laws" referring to the 1985 amendments to Chapter 163, Florida Statutes. At this
time it is unclear what effect, if any, these laws might have on any property in a
given county. The reader is cautioned, therefore, to fully investigate the
likelihood of development moratoriums or other governmental actions with
appropriate municipal, county, or state officials.
. Appraisal consult does not constitute an inspection for compliance with local
building, fire, or zoning codes. Reader is advised to contact local government
offices to ensure compliance with applicable ordinances.

. This report has been prepared solely for the private use of the client who is listed
above as the addressee. No other party is entitled to rely on the information,
conclusions, or opinions contained herein.
. Neither all nor any portion of the contents of this report shall be conveyed to the
public through advertising, public relations, news, sales, or other media without
the written consent and approval of the appraiser, particularly as to valuation
conclusions, identity of the appraiser or firm with which he is connected, or any
reference to the Appraisal Institute or to the MAl or SRA designations.
Furthermore, neither all nor any portion of the contents of this report shall be
used in connection with any offer, sale, or purchase of a security (as that term is
defined in Section 2(1) of the Securities Act of 1933) without the prior express
written consent of the appraiser.
. Estimates of expenses, particularly as to assessment by the County Property
Appraiser and subsequent taxes, are based on historical or typical data. Such
estimates are based on assumptions and projections which, as with any
predication, are affected by external forces, many unforeseeable. While all
estimates are based on my best knowledge and belief, no responsibility can be
assumed that such projections will come true.
. Unless otherwise stated in this report, the existence of radon gas, a naturally
occurring element, or hazardous materials, which mayor may not be present on
the property, was not observed by the appraiser. The appraiser has no
knowledge of the existence of such materials on or in the property. The
appraiser, however, is not qualified to detect such substances. The presence of
substances such as asbestos, urea-formaldehyde foam insulation or other
potentially hazardous materials may affect the value of the property. The value
estimate is predicated on the assumption that there is no such material on or in
the property that would cause a loss in value. No responsibility is assumed for
any such conditions, or for any expertise or engineering knowledge required to
discover them. The client is urged to retain an expert in this field, if desired.
. Only the real estate has been considered.

Beach Area Traffic Study
Introduction
The vitality of Clearwater Beach is an ongoing concern of the City of Clearwater. Since 200 I
when the Beach by Design guidelines were adopted, significant redevelopment has begun to occur
including major high rise condominium and resort hotel projects. Major changes to the roadway
and parking systems are ongoing with the reconstruction of Coronado Drive, the curvilinear
realignment of Gulfview Boulevard, redesign of the Pier 60 parking lot and relocation of public
parking lots west of Gulfview Boulevard to garage facilities east of Gulfview Boulevard. During
this period the City of Clearwater has approved a significant number of redevelopment plans for
Clearwater Beach properties involving the conversion of older small scale hotels to condominiums.
These have been especially prevalent in the Old Florida, Beach Walk, Small Hotel and the South
Beach/Clearwater Pass Districts where 489 hotel rooms are currently proposed for conversion to
residential units. Many of these plans however have been stalled by the current nationwide
downturn in the housing industry. While economic conditions will continue to have a major role in
development trends, the current land use density restrictions placed on the Clearwater Beach area
are also thought to unduly favor residential uses over hotel uses. Therefore, to encourage a balance
of economically vital uses in the area, the City of Clearwater is considering increasing the
allowable density for hotel uses. Recognizing that such changes can have a significant impact on
the transportation system, the City has commissioned this study to evaluate the adequacy of the
roadway system to accommodate a significant increase in hotel rooms within the Clearwater Beach
area.
The purpose of this study is to provide estimates of the potential for hotel anchored redevelopment
based upon current land-use and zoning patterns and to evaluate the adequacy of the roadway
system to accommodate the increased traffic associated with this redevelopment.
Study Area
The proposed study area is bounded by the Clearwater City Limits on the south, Somerset Street on
the north, the Gulf of Mexico on the west and Clearwater Bay on the east. Figure I shows the
study area. The study area has been divided into the following nine districts, eight of which are
from the Beach by Design study:

For the purposes of data compilation, Sand Key was added as a ninth district. Figure 2 identifies
the major components of the roadway system serving the study area.
Future Development Estimates
Estimates of the potential for hotel redevelopment in the study area have been prepared by
examining existing land-use and zoning patterns, future land use designations as well as recently
completed and/or recently approved projects. The detailed land use information that was
compiled for this evaluation is contained in the Appendix to this report. Key factors that were
considered in determining the potential for hotel redevelopment included the amount and
location of vacant land, current residential densities, the potential for consolidating parcels and
compatibility with the Beach by Design planning and design guidelines within the applicable
districts. Properties which have been recently redeveloped or are under construction or have an
approved site plan were not considered as having redevelopment potential.
The study area contains approximately 445 acres of land (excluding transportation/utilities,
coastal and/or submerged lands). Of this total amount there are approximately 162 acres of
recreationaVopen space and institutional uses. The remainder of this area includes 178 acres of
residential uses and 58 acres of hotel uses, 28 acres of commercial uses, 14 acres under
construction and 5 vacant acres. Currently, there are approximately 30 acres of land which have
already been approved for redevelopment, including the Marquesas, Entrada, Aqualea, Adams
Mark and Kiran Grande projects. These recent development approvals have resulted in a net
increase of 237 hotel rooms and 887 residential dwelling units in the study area. When
completed, these approved projects will include 1023 hotel rooms and 932 residential dwelling
units. Approximately 786 existing hotel rooms and 45 existing residential units will be lost in
the redevelopment process. An increase 16.7 acres of residential uses will result along with a
loss of one acre of hotel uses. Table I summarizes the net increases in hotel and residential
development associated with the approved projects, by district.

The maximum potential for additional hotel development was determined by examining the
existing and approved land use patterns by planning district. Using this data, approximately 33
acres of additional property in the study area was identified as having a reasonable potential for
redevelopment under a higher maximum density for hotel use. This includes 14.8 acres in the
Sand Key District. Assuming a maximum density of 210 rooms/acre for hotel redevelopment on
Clearwater Beach and a maximum density of 125 rooms/acre for hotel redevelopment on Sand
Key (except for the Cabana Club @ 60 units per acre), the identified properties have the potential
~
for a total of 5,601 hotel rooms. These properties currently include 1,407 existing hotel rooms
(610 on Sand Key) and four existing residential dwelling units. Redevelopment of all these
parcels to the maximum densities would result in a net increase of 4,194 hotel rooms and a loss
of four residential dwelling units.
An additional 7.57 acres ofland (with 150 existing residential dwelling units) was identified as
having a potential for residential redevelopment at a maximum density of 30 dwelling units/acre.
The resulting 227 residential dwelling units on these properties would yield a net increase of 77
residential units.
In summary, a maximum potential net increase of 4, 194 hotel rooms and 73 residential dwelling
units in the study area has been identified under the maximum allowable density assumptions.
This maximum development potential is equivalent to achieving an average density of
approximately 127 rooms/acre for all hotel properties and 27 dwelling units/acre for all

residential properties. Additionally the potential for a minor net increase in retail space of
30,000 sfhas been identified.
Table 2 summanzes this estimated maxImum redevelopment potential by District. These
maximum potential development levels represent the net increase over existing plus approved
development in the district. A detailed summary of the assumptions used to determine the
maximum development potential in each district is included in the Appendix.

Trip Generation Estimates
Estimates of the Daily, AM peak hour and PM peak hour trips generated by the approved
projects and potential new development have been made using trip generation rates compiled by
the Institute of Transportation Engineers (7th Edition). For the purpose of estimating hotel based
trips, the ITE Land Use Category 330, Resort Hotel, was used. This category was selected
because of the overall resort/recreational characteristics of the districts in which many of the trips
will be captured on site or by immediately surrounding businesses and recreational facilities.
Tables 3 and 4 summarize the estimated net new trips by district for the approved development
and the potential redevelopment sites at maximum land use densities. The detailed calculation of
trips for each of the land uses within the districts is provided in the Appendix.

It is clear that trips from the above maximum redevelopment potential, when added to the
approved development trips, would overburden the existing transportation infrastructure for the
study area. In order to evaluate the "redevelopment" capacity of the existing transportation
system, the traffic demands from alternative redevelopment densities, varying from 70
rooms/acre (33% of 210 maximum) to 120 rooms/acre (57% of 210 maximum), have been
estimated.
The density assumptions used in the scenarios are not intended to be a recommended maximum
allowable density or a specific development level for a given district or given site. The purpose
is to use the density assumptions to identify general redevelopment levels (i.e. aggregate number
7

of hotel rooms) which, under the current transportation concurrency regulations, would trigger
the need for improvements to the roadway system. The aggregate number of hotel rooms has an
equivalent average density value which can be derived from the total acres of hotel uses in the
study area.
The net new hotel rooms and residential dwelling units associated with each alternative
development density level were estimated by multiplying the acreage of potential redevelopment
parcels within each district by the alternative density. The hotel redevelopment density for Sand
Key was fixed at 100 rooms/acre for all scenarios (80% of maximum) with an additional 50
rooms allotted to the Cabana Club. Residential redevelopment was fixed at 30 dwelling
units/acre for each scenario and 30.0 ksf of retail was included with each scenario.
For the purposes of this analysis "Build Out" is assumed to occur at the density of 120 hotel
rooms/acre for potential hotel redevelopment parcels the Clearwater Beach districts. This "Build
Out" scenario represents a net increase in the study area of2,210 hotel rooms and 73 residential
dwelling units and 30,000 sf of new commercial space over the already approved development
projects. The 2,210 net new hotel rooms is equivalent to an average density of 90.4 rooms/acre
for all hotel parcels in the study area.
The trips associated with varying density assumptions have been estimated using the previously
described trip rate data. Table 5 provides a summary of the Daily, AM peak hour and PM peak
hour trips for the study area for the alternative land use density assumptions.

These trips when added to the approved development trips represent the net new traffic demands
associated with each redevelopment scenario in the study area.
Trip Distribution! Area of Influence
The expected distribution of these new trips over the roadway system was determined using
travel patterns as forecasted by the Tampa Bay Regional Transportation Planning Model. These
directional distributions as generated by the model are provided in the Appendix. Separate
assignments have been used for the trips generated within each of the districts. The distribution
percentages derived from the model are documented in the intersection traffic volumes
projections provided in the Appendix. Figures 3 and 4 summarize the projected net new AM
and PM peak hour volumes generated by the redevelopment of the study area under the "Build
Out" scenario. The volumes shown include approved development traffic. Detailed assignments
of the redevelopment traffic to the key intersection movements are provided in the Appendix.
As indicated by the traffic assignments, the most significant impacts of new development traffic
are anticipated at the Roundabout and on the Memorial Bridge. Approximately 70 percent of the
traffic generated by new development is expected to pass through the Roundabout.
Approximately 65 percent of the new development traffic will use the Memorial Causeway
Bridge for access to the mainland.
Given this distribution pattern, the following key intersections were selected for detailed Level of
Service analyses:
.:. Court @ Fort Harrison
.:. Chestnut @ Fort Harrison
.:. Clearwater Beach Roundabout
.:. Mandalay @ Baymont
.:. Gulf @ Gulfview
.:. Gulf @ Bellaire Causeway
In addition the following critical roadway segments were selected for detailed Level of Service
analyses:

Back2found Traffic
Estimates of future background traffic volumes were derived from existing traffic counts
compiled by DKS from a number of sources. These include twenty-four hour machine counts
collected by FDOT, Pinellas County and the City of Clearwater. Weekday AM, Midday and PM
peak hour turning movement counts were performed by the City of Clearwater at the key
intersections in the study area. These counts; taken in various months in 2007 and 2008 have
been adjusted to peak season conditions using seasonal adjustment factors for Pinellas County
compiled by FDOT.
While the adjusted counts reflect weekday "peak season" conditions, they do not reflect
conditions that occur during the Spring Break period at Clearwater Beach, nor do they reflect
weekend conditions during the summer or on holidays when beach traffic demands may
experience higher peaks at varying times of the day. Figures 5 and 6 summarize the existing AM
and PM peak hour, peak season weekday demands on the roadways in the study area at selected
locations. The detailed count data is provided in the Appendix as are the adjusted turning
movements volumes used as the basis for future background traffic.
Growth trends for traffic in the study area are difficult to estimate due to a number of recent
changes to the roadway system such as the new Memorial Causeway Bridge and removal of the
19A designation for Fort Harrison. Additionally, major roadway construction in the Beach Walk
area has had a significant effect on businesses both short term (construction disruptions) as well
as long term (evidenced by the number of projects involving conversion of small hotels to
condominiums). A comparison of 2006 counts to similar counts in 2007 indicates a possible

slight decrease in traffic activity. Volumes reported on the Memorial Causeway Bridge in 2006
are at the same level reported in 2004 but below those reported in 2001. For the purpose of this
analysis an annual growth factor of 1 % was applied to the existing volumes assuming a 20 year
planning period. Traffic generated by the approved development projects were added onto these
adjusted volumes to provide an estimate of the anticipated 2027 background conditions.
Traffic generated by potential redevelopment sites at the alternative density levels (including
"Build Out") was added on to the 2027 background conditions to provide the total estimated
volumes associated with the alternative redevelopment scenarios.
Level of Service Evaluations
Level of service analyses were performed for Existing, Background and Build Out conditions at
the key intersections and roadway segments previously identified. The initial set of evaluations
used existing roadway geometries and control devices (i.e., signal timings, stop signs and yield
signs) to determine current and background operating conditions. The Synchro/SimTraffic
software was used to calculate intersection delay and average link travel speeds for the critical
elements of the roadway system. Tables 6 and 7 provide a summary of the analyses for each of
three development scenarios.
The analyses indicate unacceptable Levels of Service (E and below) are projected at Build Out
for two intersections:
.:. Chestnut Street @ Fort Harrison Avenue-The intersection is projected to operate at
Level of Service E under Build Out conditions (PM peak hour).
.:. Court Street @ Fort Harrison Avenue- The intersection is projected to operate at Level
of Service E under build out conditions (both AM and PM peak hour).
Based upon the analysis of alternative redevelopment scenarios, Level of Service E begins to
occur at these two intersections at the redevelopment density level of 70 rooms/acre (1333 net
new hotel rooms).

.:. Court Street from Myrtle Avenue to Oak Avenue (WB)--Level of Service E conditions
begin in the AM and PM peak hour with the 2027 background traffic (Approved
Development only).
The analysis of conditions at the Clearwater Roundabout was performed using the simulation
capabilities of the Synchro/Sim Traffic model. Level of Service was determined using the same
average vehicle delay criteria as used for signalized intersections. The simulation indicated,
while significant increases in congestion are anticipated under Build Out for the weekday PM
conditions, the overall delay is comparable to LOS D for a traffic signal.
Miti2:ation ReQuirements
An investigation of potential mitigation measures has been performed for the deficient
intersections. The purpose was to identify capacity related improvements which would result in
Level of Service D or better for the build out conditions. The following summarizes the needed
improvements.
Chestnut Street at Fort Harrison--In order to provide additional capacity, the south leg of the
intersection will need to be restriped to create an additional NB right turn lane. This will require
elimination of the bicycle lane. Restriping of the northbound exit will be needed to provide the
necessary transition across the intersection.

Court Street at Fort Harrison--In order to provide additional capacity, the north leg of the
intersection will need to be restriped to create an additional SB right turn lane. This will require
elimination of the bicycle lane. Restriping of the southbound exit will be needed to provide the
necessary transition across the intersection.
An alternative design involving restriping the section of Fort Harrison to create a four lane
undivided facility from just south of Chestnut Street to just north of Court Street could also be
implemented. Lane control signage and striping would be needed to create exclusive left turn
lanes (southbound at Chestnut Street and northbound at Court Street). Figures 7 and 8 illustrate
these alternative mitigation concepts.
Analysis of the recommended improvements indicates Level of Service D conditions can be
maintained at these intersections and along the segments for the Build Out conditions. Tables 8
and 9 indicate the anticipated Levels of Service with the recommended improvements.

Summary
Analysis of land use patterns 111 the study area has identified the potential for significant
redevelopment of property for hotel land use under an increase in the maximum allowable
densities. The impact of the potential redevelopment on the roadway system has been evaluated
to identify the improvements needed to maintain acceptable Levels of Service under varying
density alternatives.
The results indicate an additional 2,210 hotel rooms (825 in the Sand Key District and 1,385
distributed throughout the Clearwater Beach Districts) could be accommodated with capacity
improvements at the intersections of Chestnut Street and Fort Harrison Avenue and Court Street
and Fort Harrison. These capacity improvements involve restriping of the south approach of
Fort Harrison at Chestnut Street and the north approach of Fort Harrison at Court Street to create
exclusive right turn lanes. Adjustments to lane use signage and signal timings will be needed to
effect the lane use changes. An alternative design involving the restriping of Fort Harrison to
create two lanes in each direction from Chestnut to Court would result in an equivalent
operational improvement.
Either of the restriping alternatives would result in the loss of the existing bicycle lane along this
section of Fort Harrison A venue. The marked bike lane on the east side of Ft. Harrison A venue

will be tied into the new east west bike trail running along Turner Street from the Pine lIas Trail
to the Bay Avenue and ultimately the Memorial Causeway Trail. This will serve the purpose of
the original bike lane on Ft. Harrison that terminated at Court Street.
With either of these improvements, acceptable Levels of Service can be maintained on all of the
major intersections and roadway segments in the study area under the "Build Out" development
scenano.

INTRODUCTION
The Belleview Biltmore Cabana Club is located on Sand Key in the City of
Clearwater, Florida. The existing facility at this location is a restaurant and beach
club. It is proposed to replace these land uses with a hotel. This study was
completed to document the existing hourly traffic volumes for the restaurant and
beach club. In addition the study was completed to compare the traffic counts
with the expected number of trips for the existing restaurant and with the
proposed hotel using information from the Institute of Transportation Engineers
(ITE) informational report Trip Generation.
EXISITNG AND PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
The existing facility provided at the Cabana Club is a restaurant that totals 7,653
square feet. This restaurant consists of the following dimensions:

7,653
In addition, the facility serves as a beach club for the patrons of the Belleview
Biltmore Hotel. This facility will be demolished and will be replaced by a 38
room hotel that will include an accessory restaurant.
EXISITNG TRAFFIC
Contact was made with the restaurant operator and it was determined that the
peak usage occurs on Friday and Saturday nights. Manual traffic counts were
taken on these nights to determine the number of vehicles entering and exiting the
existing Belleview Biltmore Cabana Club restaurant. Counts were taken on
Friday, April 18, 2008, from 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. and on Saturday April 26,
2008, from 3:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. by Florida Design Consultants, Inc. The
counts were taken with subtotals every 15 minutes, and the highest four
consecutive IS-minute increments that were taken are the peak hour. The
restaurant was contacted to make sure that there were no special events or
functions during the time the counts were conducted to make sure that they
occurred during a typical day. A count was tentatively scheduled for Saturday,
April 19, 2008, but it was determined that the restaurant was reserved for a
wedding party, which would have skewed the count results. Therefore the count
was delayed to April26, 2008.

Table 1 provides the results of the traffic count taken on Friday, April 18, 2008.
The information provided indicates the I5-minute increment counts for inbound
and outbound traffic with hourly totals. The hourly volumes ranged from a low of
23 vehicles from 4:00 to 5:00 p.m. to a high of 39 vehicles from 8:00 to 9:00 p.m.
The 8:00 to 9:00 p.m. count also represents the peak hour (highest four
consecutive I5-minute increments). This peak hour had 13 inbound and 26
outbound vehicles.
The Saturday count, taken on April 26, 2008, is summarized in Table 2. These
counts ranged from a low of 22 vehicles from 4:00 to 5:00 p.m. to a high of 43
vehicles for 8:00 to 9:00 p.m. The peak hour occurred between 6:45 and 7:45
p.m. with 45 vehicles; 25 inbound and 20 outbound.
Trips for the existing restaurant at the Belleview Biltmore Cabana Club were also
generated using Information from the ITE informational report Trip Generation,
7th Edition, 2003. The trips for the restaurant were generated using Quality
Restaurant, Land Use Code 913. Based on the ITE information, the restaurant
should generate 688 weekday daily trips, with 57 trips in the p.m. street peak hour
and 69 p.m. peak hour trips in the peak hour of the generator. The street peak
hour is the sum of the highest four consecutive I5-minute periods between 4:00
p.m. and 6:00 p.m. The peak hour of the generator (restaurant in this case) is the
sum of the highest four consecutive I5-minute periods taken in the afternoon. On
Saturday it would generate 722 daily trips and 83 trips in the peak hour of the
generator. No information was available from the ITE source for the p.m. peak
hour on a Saturday.
The numbers of trips counted for the existing facility during the peak hour of the
generator were compared with the volumes calculated using the ITE formulas.
For the Friday p.m. peak hour of the generator 39 vehicles were counted, while
the ITE method would estimate 69 trips. For the Saturday peak hour of generator,
45 trips were counted instead of the ITE estimate of83 vehicles.
HOTEL TRAFFIC
The trips to be generated by the hotel have also been estimated using information
from the ITE informational report Trip Generation. The numbers of trips that will
be generated on a weekday and on a Saturday on a daily basis and during the
street peak and generator peak hours are identified in Table 3. On a weekday
daily basis, the hotel will generate 339 trips, while the p.m. street peak hour will
have 27 trips and the generator peak hour would have 30 trips. The daily trips on
a Saturday are projected to be 399 trips and the peak hour of the generator is
projected to have 33 trips. There was no information on the distribution of the
trips entering and exiting for the Saturday peak hour.

5.0 TRIP COMPARISON
A comparison has been made between the trips currently being generated by the
existing land uses at the Belleview Biltmore Cabana Club and those for the
proposed hotel operation. After reviewing the actual counts at this site and those
projected for the existing and proposed land use using the ITE trip generation
information, the following conclusions can be made:
1. The restaurant land use generates more traffic on a daily basis than the
proposed hotel (688 daily trips versus 339 daily trips on a weekday).
2. The existing restaurant generates more traffic during the normal street peak
period (4:00 to 6:00 p.m.) than the proposed hotel.
3. The trips for the restaurant are higher at later hours in the day than for the
hotel. The Friday peak hour comes from 8:00 to 9:00 p.m. The Saturday peak
hour occurs from 6:45 to 7:45 p.m. with 45 vehicles, which is almost matched
by the 43 vehicles that came or left the site from 8:00 to 9:00 p.m.
4. The hotel land use is likely to have lower traffic volumes than the restaurant
throughout the day and would not have as many vehicles entering or leaving
the site in the evening. This is supported by the fact that the trip generation on
a daily basis for the restaurant is 344 vehicles during a weekday and 361 on
the weekend, while the hotel would have 170 weekday trips and 200 weekend
trips per day.
6.0 CONCLUSION
Based upon the above review, it has been demonstrated that the proposed 38 room
hotel would have less traffic impact than the existing restaurant.

RE: Cabana Club - Belleview Biltmore
TimHaahs Project No. MIA07109
The Cabana Club at the Belleview Biltmore Hotel & Resort is a 38-room hotel with 4,981 SF of on-site
restaurant space and 56 parking spaces (3 of which are handicap). The club also includes one loading
space for deliveries and back of house operations.
.....,...-
We have analyzed the parking requirements for the Cabana Club and have created the following parking
model:
Programming Proposed Shared-Parking Demand Factors
1 space/room key -Based on 90%
Hotel 38-keys 24 Occupancy, 70% Drive Ratio, 100% peak
hour adjustment.
10 spaces/1 ,000 sq.ft. - Based on 90%
Restaurant 4,981 sq.ft. 14 peak hour adjustment, 70% captive
adjustment typical for resorts.
Total 38
After calibrating our shared parking model for this specific resort in this geographic location, we have
identified the peak parking demand would occur at 9 pm on a weekend (Saturday) with a need for 38
parking spaces. It is our opinion that the planned 56 parking spaces would adequately support the
parking demand at the Cabana Club given the assumptions listed above.

If on a rare occasion, the hotel should experience a 95% drive ratio and the restaurant experience a 60%
captive adjustment, we estimate the peak hour demand to increase to 42 spaces, still under the capacity
of the proposed parking area. Therefore, it is our opinion that 42 spaces would satisfy the needs for the
Cabana Club on most days and 56-spaces is expected to meet the demand needs on the highest peak
days.
I
I
If additional parking is needed beyond the typical or peak, vehicles can be parked using a valet
operation thereby increasing the lot capacity by 20 percent or from 56 spaces to 67 spaces. This results
in a surplus of 29 spaces over the typical peak parking demand and a surplus of 25 spaces over the
special occasion peak demand. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact
myself or Roamy Valera.

RE: SAND KEY BEACH NOURISHMENT PROGRAM
CABANA CLUB REDEVELOPMENT
Dear Ms. Tarapani:
I am writing to confirm our telephone conversation regarding the redevelopment of the
Cabana Club on the Beach Renourishment Program for Pinellas County. As you have
described it to me, the Cabana Club is located at 1590 Gulf Boulevard, Clearwater,
Florida. The Cabana Club currently operates as a restaurant and beach club for guests of
the Belleview Biltmore Hotel in Belleair, Florida. The property owner proposes to
redevelop the site with a 38-room hotel and accessory restaurant. This proposed
redevelopment will not have any effect on the ability of Pine lIas County to request and
receive federal funding for beach renourishment.
I also would like to clarify the meaning of the Erosion Control Line (ECL) as applied to
the site. When the ECL is surveyed, it becomes the demarcation between the public
beach and private property and title to all lands located seaward of the ECL becomes
vested with the State of Florida. The ECL for this site along with other beach property
along Sand Key was surveyed and recorded on February 26, 1997. Therefore, since
February 26, 1997, all lands seaward of the ECL are vested with the State of Florida; all
lands landward of the ECL are property of the upland property owner.
Finally, any construction that occurs seaward of the Coastal Construction Control Line
(CCCL) requires a permit for the Florida Department of Environmental Protection
(FDEP) Bureau of Beaches and Coastal Systems. Please do not hesitate to contact me at
(727) 464-3774 if you have additional questions.
Sincerely,
~~
Nicole Elko, Ph.D.
Coastal Coordinator

Contributing Principal for this destination tourism project which involves a
2000 ac core resort component in addition to a regional integration planning
study which studies the optimal introduction strategy of the resort project into
the host community. The study area is located in a very ecologically
complex setting where habitats range from Pacific Flyway nesting areas to
Pacific coastal dunes to sensitive "fog desert" uplands to rich weUand
fISheries bordering two inland bays. A thriving local oyster fishery operation
combined with exponential growth projections for the local population made
ecological sensitivity all the more critical. The resort project includes self-
sufficient, green technologies for infrastructure systems and state-of-the-art
resort amenities. A tighUy clustered harbor village helps to concentrate
residential and commercial development allowing significant areas of natural
open space to be preserved.

WRT was retained by Miami-Dade County to prepare a Master Plan for
Haulover Park, one of the County's most important regional parks. Haulover
has served for decades as a prime beach attraction for residents and visitors,
as well as offering a variety of recreation including golf, tennis, boating and
fishing. In recent years the park has suffered from deterioration of some
facilities and a decline in popularity.
In developing the Master Plan, WRT examined a number of options for
the golf program (including both traditional course and teaching facilities),
beach revitalization and other park elements. WRT worked closely with
County staff, municipal representatives and other stakeholders, as well as
special consultants the National Golf Foundation, in developing and
evaluating concepts. The Master Plan concept includes a re-Iocated and
expanded, special waterfront par 3 golf course; an enhanced and diversified
beach experience; improved parking and circulation; an extensive waterfront
promenade; an expanded marina and concession area; a conservation
education facility; and a'greatlawn' civic space for community events.

Garden, the Miami region's 83-acre public botanical garden and a world-
renowned collection of palms, cycads, and other tropical plant families. The
Master Plan, completed in 1995, was the Garden's first comprehensive
evaluation of its physical plan and facility growth needs in over 30 years.
The Master Plan identified key strategies for meeting the growing demands
of the Garden's programs and operations through cooperative projects with
adjacent Dade County park facilities, as well as strategic upgrades and
expansions of existing Garden facilities. The Master Plan also carefully
preserved and restored significant features and concepts of the original 1938
Garden plans, prepared by the pioneering Florida landscape architect and
Olmsted associate William Lyman Phillips.
In conjunction with the Master Plan, WRT also designed specific 'early
action' improvements to help re-invigorate the Garden in the aftermath of
Hurricane Andrew. These included a renovation of the Garden's front
