Provide City Council an update on the status of the US 19 Clearwater: Creating Innovative Places project,
including a summary of economic data and public input. (WSO)
SUMMARY:
The initial phases of work to prepare a redevelopment plan for the US 19 corridor are underway. With assistance from
a consultant team led by HDR, the Planning and Development Department is working with corridor stakeholders to
define land use and development strategies to leverage the corridor's unique locational advantages, capitalize on
market opportunities, and maximize benefits of planned transit and transportation improvements.
Planning Phases and Status
The highly-interactive process far the project is organized around the following five work tasks:
• Task 1. Project Initiation
• Task 2. ConteXt Assessments
• Task 3. Visions, Issues & Ideas
• Task 4. Preliminary Framework Plan & Strategies
• Task 5. Final Plan & Strategies
Work under Task 1 is complete, work under Tasks 2 and 3 is nearing completion, and work under Task 4 is underway.
Under Tasks 2 and 3, the project team has reviewed relevant land use, transportation, and other plans and studies
addressing the study area; evaluated existing land use and development conditions along the corridor; completed an
assessment of the corridor's market potential and competitive position in the region; and completed the first phase of
public engagement, including multiple listening sessions, as detailed below.
Engagement Activities
To gain an understanding
following:
of stakeholder and general public perspectives, the project team has completed the
• Facilitated a series of Listening Sessions between February 29 and March 14, 2012 during which team
members led discussions about issues and ideas for improvements. Participants included business owners and
operators, realtors, developers, architects, multi-family property managers, home owner's association leaders,
and residents;
• Conducted a Market Potential Workshop on April 5, 2012 to review findings from the Market Assessment.
Participants included business and property managers, realtors, architects, developers, Chamber of Commerce
leaders and Pinellas County Economic Development staff; and
• Engaged stakeholders in a project-specific on-line forum (www.myUSl9plan.com) which provides
opportunities far interested parties to learn about the project, share ideas, and see what other stakeholders are
saying about the corridor's future.

Feedback from the Listening Sessions, Market Potentials Workshop, and On-Line Forum are being used by the project
team to prepare the Preliminary Framework Plan & Strategies called for under Task 4.
In addition, an Open House will be held on May 30, 2012 to provide opportunities for stakeholders to share ideas for
land uses and development in specific locations along the corridor. We will report on the feedback we receive at the
Open House at Work Session; these ideas will also be incorporated into the Preliminary Framework Plan & Strategies
under Task 4.
Preliminary Findings from Engagement Activities and Context Assessment
Corridor stakeholders, and members of the general public, shared concerns about a wide range of important topics.
Participants in public meetings and the on-line forum shared a range of concerns and ideas. Through project
engagement activities, the following topics were explored:
• Positive and negative effects of the US19 improvements—improved regional access and safer long-distance
travel but fewer cross-connections and limited access to individual destinations;
• The poor condition and high vacancies in several older strip commercial properties;
• Difficulty finding destinations along the corridor, especially for those driving along the elevated sections of
US 19;
• Challenges traveling between destinations on the local street network, especially for pedestrians, bicyclists,
and transit users; and
• Ideas about improving and broadening the mix of land uses, concentrating activity at key intersections,
improving signage and landscaping, and protecting surrounding neighborhoods.
The project team is preparing conteXt assessments that identify several conditions affecting redevelopment potential
along the corridor, including the following:
• Land values and intensities are highest in locations with the best regional and local access–the Gulf-to-Bay and
Countryside areas;
• Areas with larger vacant and underutilized sites in single ownership offer opportunities for near-term
investment, while areas with smaller sites in fragmented ownership present challenges;
• In-between sites (those that lie between exits, and are therefore without direct access to travel on US 19) tend
to have lower development intensities and values than those located at crossroads; and
• The corridar is in a good position as the regional market improves, to attract new office, retail, and residential
investment.
Early Ideas for the Framework Plan
Based on early research and feedback, the project team is exploring the following general planning and design
concepts:
• Focus future investment in locations with the strongest competitive position and best regional access–the
Countryside and Gulf-to-Bay Districts;
• Promote reinvestment in older commercial properties at the Sunset/Coachman and Belleair intersections to
reinforce these areas as local shopping and employment destinations;
• Promote master planning of larger vacant sites to provide for mixed uses, quality public spaces, effective
internal circulation, and better connections to surrounding destinations;
• Allow for a wider range of uses and increased development intensities in the "in between" areas to promote
redevelopment and reinvestment in older strip commercial properties;
• Improve gateway conditions, district and subdistrict identities, and wayfinding signage to enhance the
competitive position of destinations along the corridor;
• Improve local street, pedestrian, and bicycle networks to address connectivity challenges; an�em # 2

• Define effective, achievable methods—policies, incentives, and public investments—to promote context
sensitive, energy efficient development corridor-wide.
These general concepts will be refined under Task 4 as part of the project team's work on the Preliminary Framework
Plan & Strategies.

Council Chambers — City Hall
SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION:
Meeting Date:6/4/2012
Provide for a referendum on November 6, 2012 allowing the City Council to grant economic development ad valorem tax exemptions if
approved by a majority of city voters; approve preliminary Economic Development Ad Valorem Tax Exemption Program parameters
and pass Ordinance 8338-12 on first reading.
SUMMARY:
On May 14, 2012, City Council directed staff to prepare an ordinance that provides for a referendum on the
November 6, 2012 ballot to allow City Council to grant economic development ad valorem tax exemptions
for qualifying businesses that create new jobs pursuant to Article VII, Section 3 of the Florida Constitution
and Section 196.1995 of the Florida Statutes.
Ordinance 8338-12 calls for a referendum that willbe placed on the ballot on November 6, 2012 and puts
forth the following ballot question:
"Shall the City Council of the City of Clearwater be authorized to grant, pursuant to s.3 Art. VII of the State
Constitution, ad valorem tax exemptions to new businesses and expansions of existing businesses that are
expected to create new, full-time jobs in the Cityof Clearwater?"
The ordinance outlines the City of Clearwater's desire to offer tax exemptions for new businesses relocating
to the City and to expanding businesses in order to foster economic growth and increase employment as
allowed by state law.
The ballot language is due to the Supervisor of Elections on August 3, 2012.
Economic Development Ad Valorem Tax Exemption Program Parameters
The Economic Development Ad Valorem Tax Exemption Program is intended to attract new private
investment and encourage capital investment and job growth in the City of Clearwater. The program would
be a tool for the city to help regain a competitive edge not only in the Tampa Bay region, but also statewide
in business attraction and expansion.
Staff has developed preliminary Economic Development Ad Valorem Tax Exemption Program parameters
for Council consideration. Staff has proposed the following program parameters in order to be most
competitive with other jurisdictions' programs, allow the greatest flexibility for the Council to achieve its
economic development goals, and for the City of Clearwater to realize an increase in tax base:
-75% annual individual project maximum ad valorem ecemption
-10 year maximum exemption time period
-$100,000 minimum capital investment without land
-No cap on the number of applications or amount tobe exempted per fiscal year
-Job creation requirements will be those as required by state law:
Cover Memo
Item # 4
• Manufacturing (10 jobs)
• Qualified Target Industries (10 jobs)
• Export sales (25 jobs)
• Office—not in target industries (50 jobs)
-Average wage for new jobs must be above the avera� wage for Pinellas County ($40,372 in 2012)
-Each application must be approved by City Councilvia ordinance
-All businesses must reapply annually for the exem�ion and provide a status report to ensure they are still
in compliance with program requirements
�ity Council has the authority to revoke the exemption if the applicant fails to meet agreement expectations
and/or program requirements
In summary, the exemption applies only to improvements to real property and to tangible personal property.
Staff will use the above preliminary program parameters to prepare educational materials in anticipation of
the referendum on November 6.

Council Chambers — City Hall
SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION:
Meeting Date:6/4/2012
Approve the first amendment to the Management Agreement between the City of Clearwater and the Clearwater Regional Chamber of
Commerce, Inc. to extend the Agreement for a one (1) year period, modify the notice provision, and clarify the indemnificarion
provision; and authorize funding in the amount of $50,000 in Fiscal Year 2012-2013 for the operation �the Beach Visitor information
Center (BVIC), and authorize the appropriate officials to execute saine. (consent)
SUMMARY:
The BVIC, built in 2002, is located adjacent to the Pier 60 playground on Clearwater Beach just wesi of the Clearwater Beach
Municipal Marina. The center is a 15' x 20' air—cortlitioned concrete block structure of tropical seascape design compatible with
existing beach buildings. The Economic Development and Housing Department is the "owner" of the building. The City's Building and
Maintenance Division maintains the structural integrity of the building.
The City released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for management services in March 2002, with the Clearwater Regional Chamber of
Commerce (Chamber) being the sole respondent. A five—year agreement was signed in July 2002 and exp'red in July 2007. A two—
month extension was approved in June 2007 to allow the next term of the agreement on the City's fiscal timeline. In July 2007, another
RFP was released for management services and the Clearwater Regional Chamber of Commerce was, again, the sole responder. A five—
year management agreement was signed in October 2007 and is set to expire in October 2012.
The main purpose of the BVIC is to provide quality service and information to the visitors to Clearwater. The BVIC maintains open
communication with the Pinellas County Convention and Visitors Bureau providing essential information as to the condition of traffic,
parking, weather, red tide, events, activities and other information deemed appropriate. The BVIC faciliry is open 7 days a week, has a
full time manager, and is staffed during ]cey operating hours with the appropriate number of employees to serve the needs of the public.
The BVIC maintains a guest book where visitors are asked to provide such information as the visitor's origin (state/country), if it's a
first visit, if they flew or drove, length of stay, where they are staying, and if they already had reservations. The Center also provides a
computer for visitors to check e—mails and other irternet usage. Over the past ten years, over 462,980 visitors have been served.
Comment cards are made available for the visitors to provide the City with information on their overall stay, things they liked or
disliked and additional services the City might provide. Staff addresses visitor complaints and acts as a liaison to local businesses.
Staff recommends exercising a one—year extension tothe Management Agreement as the Chamber has managed the BVIC according to
the management agreement and City expectations. While staff was originally contemplating preparing and releasing a new RFP,
discussions with the Regional and Beach Chambers revealed that the Chambers would discuss options for potential collaboration in the
following year.
The budget for the one—year extension is $50,000 (�vised budget is an addendum to Exhibit B). The budget anticipates a lower
advertising, merchandise and tickets sales, however, any losses will be covered by the Chamber and any surpluses will be returned to
the City. The funding for this one—year extension wil] be included in the City Manager's proposed 2012/l 3 annual operating budget.
In summary, the first amendment to the management agreement extends the Agreement for one (1) additional one (1) year period
(Extended Term), modifies the notice provision and clarifies the indemnification provision. In addition, to be consistent with city
standards, the City will grant a revocable license to the Cbamber to enter upon and occupy the Beach Visitor Information Center.

SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION:
Meeting Date:6/4/2012
Approve a loan up to $800,000 to Prospect Towers of Clearwater, Inc. to renovate an existing rental housing apartment complex for
seniors located at 801 Chestnut Street, Clearwater; enter into a land use restriction agreement, mortgage and note wiih loan terms as
follows: a 30—year loan with a five—year defined r�ayment at $6,000 payable for year one and $12,000 payable for years two through
five and an amortized 25—year loan on the remainingbalance at one percent interest rate per annum, and authorize the appropriate
officials to execute same. (consent)
SUMMARY:
On Apri14, 2012, Prospect Towers of Clearwater, Inc. submitted an application for funding to renovate Prospect Towers. The
renovations will include replacing the water tanks, air handlers, pipe insulation, modernize the elevators, and other eligible
improvements. The total project is estimated to cost $800,000, including loan closing costs.
Located at 801 Chestnut Street, Prospect Towers of Clearwater, Inc. (Prospect Towers) has been incorporated since 1969 with building
completion in 1971. Prospect Towers is governed by a Board of Directors comprised of 11 local individuals who are responsible for
management and administration, with day—to—day rer�l and building management being handled under contract by Presidio Realty,
which employs on—site administrative, rental and mantenance personnel.
Prospect Towers is a 208—unit apartment building tlat is comprised of 96 efficiency units and 112 one�edroom units. The property
includes a seventeen—story building and parking lot The features include utilities (Electric, Gas, Water and Sewer) in the rent, 24/7 on—
site Desk Clerlcs, Emergency Call Buttons, Community Library, and an on—site Wellness Center. Accordingto the Pinellas County Tax
Assessor's Office, the property has a 2011 Market Value of $8,148,236.00.
The unit rents vary from $432 for the eff'iciency units to $649 for the one—bedroom units. The existingrents are lower than the fair
market rents at $690 for an efficiency unit and $766 far a one�edroom unit. The rents are also lower than the high HOME rents at $656
for an efficiency unit and $704 for a one—bedroom tnit. Therefore, the project would meet the existing HOME Program guidelines.
Prospect Towers was originally funded through HUD's Section 231 Mortgage Insurance Rental Housing for the Elderly Program, which
required the project to remain an affordable housing development. The Section 231 Program was designed to increase the supply of
rental housing speci�cally for the use and occupancy of elderly persons and/or persons with disabilities. Prospect Towers' residents
must be at least 62 years of age ar have a disability and the capability to care for ihe apartment in which they reside. Recently, Prospect
Towers repaid the loan to HUD, which no longer obligates Prospect Towers to remain affordable.
By approving this 30—year loan with a five—year d�fiied repayment at $6,000 payable for year one and $12,000 payable for years two
through �ve and an amartized 25�ear loan on the remaining balance at one percent interest rate per annum, the City will ensure that the
housing units remain affordable over the next thirty years. The City will require Prospect Towers to enter into a land use restrictive
agreement for a 30—year affordability period on theHOME—assisted units (total of 20 units). As with �e original obligation, Prospect
Towers has indicated their intent is to keep not only the HOME—assisted units affordable, but all unifi affordable. The Articles of
Incorporation state in Article Third the purposes of the corporation including "to provide for elderly families and elderly persons on a
non—profit below cost basis rental housing....". �milar language is found in the Bylaws, Article II, Section 1(a). The City of Clearwater
will base affordability upon rents being at or below the Fair Market Rent level, as adjusted annually by HUD and will monitor the loan
on a yearly basis.
Funding for the loan will come from HOME Investment Partnership Program and Pinellas County Local Housing Trust Fund dollars
with closing anticipated in June/July 2012.
The Prospect Towers Board of Directors unanimously approved the term sheet at their meeting on May 22, 2012.

5. Prospect Towers of Clearwater, Inc. will perform annual income certifications and re-
certifications for the tenants of the HOME-assisted units. The annual income of the tenants
in these rental units must be at 80% or less of area median income. The agency will forward
the certifications to the City annually.

SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION:
Meeting Date:6/4/2012
Approve the First Amended and Restated Memorandum of Understanding between the City of Clearwater, a municipal corporation of
the Siaie of Florida, and Ruth Eckerd Hall, Inc., a Florida Not—for—Profit corporation, delineating th responsibiliries of the parties with
respect to the purchase, rehabilitation, operation, and maintenance of the Capitol Theater and Lokey Building (403 and 401 Cleveland
street) and if acquired, the building at 409 Cleveland Street; and autharize the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent)
SUMMARY:
In 2006, Ruth Eckerd Hall requested an appropriation in Penny for Pinellas III (Penny III) for a$4 million—
improvement to the Education Center at the Marcia Hoffman Institute at Ruth Eckerd Hall. It was approved by voters
as part of the Penny III referendum.
Subsequently, in 2008 the City of Clearwater and Ruth Eckerd Hall, Inc., entered into a Memorandum of
Understanding (MOU) concerning the acquisition, renovation, operation, maintenance and temporary utilization of the
properties known as the Capital Theatre and the Lokey Building (403 and 401 Cleveland Street). It was anticipated that
the subject properties would be incorporated into an expanded and renovated Capital Theatre to be owned by the City
and operated by Ruth Eckerd Hall, Inc.
Due largely to the economic crisis which beset the nation later in 2008, followed by a transition in leadership at Ruth
Eckerd Hall, the opportunity to move forward with a contemplated fund raising campaign by Ruth Eckerd Hall was
interrupted and the purposes of the MOU and the Penny III project were largely unrealized. Ownership of the 403 and
401 properties were transferred to the City and the theatre is being operated on a temporary basis by Ruth Eckerd Hall.
Other provisions of the MOU have remained dormant.
Under the leadership of a new President /CEO of Ruth Eckerd Hall, a new capital and renovation strategy has been
developed involving both the Capital Theatre and Ruth Eckerd Hall ep r se. Ruth Eckerd Hall wish to move forward
during the next several years with renovation of both facilities under a redesigned and expanded concept. This led to
a renegotiation of both the MOU and the relative participation of the parties in the Capital Theatre proj ect and the
Penny III appropriation, in order to efficiently and effectively facilitate successful completion of the two facility
renovations and capital funding. The results of those negotiations are reflected in the attached amended and restated
MOU.
Key provisions of the new agreement are:
In order to increase the effectiveness and operability of the Capital Theatre, Ruth Eckerd Hall will attempt to acquire
the property located at 409 Cleveland Street, and subsequently transfer the property to the City for Fair Market Value
(FMV) , as established by the median point of two independent appraisals;
The City will re—designate the $4 million Penny IIIappropriation from Education Center use to Ruth Eckerd and
Capital Theatre renovation, to allow the Capital Theatre construction to be fully funded and proceed without further
delay. Ruth Eckerd Hall, in exchange, agrees to assume responsibility for funding the entire Ruth Eckerd Hall and
Education Center improvements contemplated through their capital campaign.
Cover Memo
The City will advance the $4 million for Capital Theatre from reserve funds and will later reimburse the reserve fund
from the re—classified Penny III funds, when they become available. Item # 9
Prior to commencement of operation of the Capital Theatre, Ruth Eckerd hall agrees to establish a$2 million operation
and maintenance endowment fund for the Capital Theatre, and to add 100,000 annually for 10 years.
From a City financial contribution standpoint, the difference between the total cost commitment of the City under the
current and proposed MOU are summarized below. The Proposed total will be increased by the amount of the
purchase price for 409 Cleveland Street.
Summary— Proposed—City
Construction $7.3 million
Original Property Acquisition $2.4 million
TOTAL $9.7 million +/—

STATEMENT OF CLIENT'S RIGHTS
FOR CONTINGENCY FEES
Before you, .lze �rospective client, arrange a contingent fee a� eement with a lauryer, you should
tuide��stand this statement of your rights as a client. This statement is not a part of the actual
contract between you and yoiu lawyer, but, as a prospective client, you should be aware of these
rights:
1. There is no legal requirement that a la�ryer charge a cHent a set fee or a percentage of money
recovered in�a case. You, the client, have the rin�l�t to talk �vith your ia�vyer about the proposed fee
and to bargain about the rate or percentage as in any other eontract. If you do not reach a�i
agreement with 1 lawyer you may talk with odier lawyers.
2. Any contingent fee contract must be in writing and you have 3 business days to reconsider
the contract. You may cancel the contract widiout any reason if you notify your lawyer in writing
witlun 3 business days of signing the contract. If you withdraw froyn the contract within the first 3
business days, you do i�ot owe the la�vyer a fee altho�►gh you may be responsible fa• the lawyer's
achial costs during that tune. If your lawyer begii�s to represent you, your lawyer may not
.uithdraw from the case �vithout giving you notice, delivering necessary papers to you, a�id
allotiving you time to employ another lawyer. Often, your lawyer must obtain court approval
before withdrawing frona a case. If you discl�arge your lawyer without good cause after tlie 3-day
period, you may liave to pay a fee for work the lavvyer has done.
3. Before L.irin� a lawyer, you, the client, have the right to know about the lawyer's education,
training, and experience. Tf you ask, the lawyer should tell you specifically about the lawyer's
actual e��erience dealing with cases sinula�• to yours. If you ask, the lawyer should pro��ide
infonnation about special traiiung or Icnowledge a�id give you this infonnation in writing if you
request it.
4. Before signing a continaent fee contract with you, a la�vyer nnist advise you whether the
lawyer intends to ha�idle your case alone or �vhether other lawyers will be helping with the case.
If your la��vyer intends to refer die case to odier lavvyers, the lawyer should tell you what kind of
fee sharing arrangement will be made �vith the other lawyers. If la�vyers from different la�v firnls
will represent you, at least l lawyer from each law firm must sign the contingent fee contraci.
5. If your iawyer intends to refer your case to another lawyer or counsel with otlier lawyers,
your la�;ryer,should tell you about that at the begiminig. If your lawyer takes the case and later
decides to rPfer it to another lawyer or to associate .vith other latvyers, you sliould sign a new
contract that includes die new la��vyers. You, the client, also have the right to consult with eacli
lawyer �vorkin� on your case and each lawyer is leb ]ly responsible to represent your interests
and is legally responsible for d�e acts of the other la«ryers involved in the case.
6. You, di� client, l�ave the right to la�ow in advance how you will need to pay the expenses and
the le�al fees at tlie end of the case. If you pay a deposit in advance for costs, you may ask
reasonable q!�estions about how tlie money will be or has been spent and how mucl� of it remains
unspent. 1'our lavvyer should give a reasonable estimate about firture necessary costs. If your
la�vyer agrees to lend or advance you inoney to prepare or research the case, you have the right to
know perioelically how much money your la��yer has spent on yow• behalf. You also have tlie
right fo decide, after c�nsulting with your lawyer, how much moi�ey is to be spent to prepare a
case. If you pay the expenses, you liave the ri�ht to decide how much to spend. Your lawyer
Rev. 06.02.10
Item # 10
Attachment number 2 \nPage 2
should also infoml you «�hether the fee will be based on the gross ainount recovered or on the
amount recovered min�ls the costs.
7. You, tlie clie�it, have tl�e right to be told by your lawyer about possible adverse consequences
if you lose the case. Those adverse consequeuces nught iuclude money that you nvght have to
pay to your la�vyer for costs and liabiliry you might have for attorney's fees, costs, and expenses
to the other side.
8. You, tlie client, have tl�e right to receive and approve a closing statement at the end of tlie
case before you pay any money. The statement must list all of the financial details of the entire
case, including the aniount recovered, all expenses, and a precise statement of your lawyer's fee.
Until you ap��rove the clasing state�nent your lawyer cannot pay any money to a��yone, including
you, �vithout an a}�propriate order of the court. You also have die right to have every lawyer or
law finn working on your case sign this closing statenient.
9. You, the client, have the right to ask your lawyer at reasonable intervais ho�v tlie case is
progressing and to have tltese questions answered to the best ofyour lawyer's ability.
10. You, the client, have the right to make the final decision regarding settlement of a case. Your
la��vyer must notify you of all offers of settlement Uefore and after tlie trial. Offe�s during the trial
must be im�nediately communicated and you should consult with your lavvyer regarding whether
to accept a settlement. However, you must n�ake dte final decision to accept or reject a settlement.
I 1. If at any time you, the client, believe that your lawyer has charged an excessive or illegal fee,
you have the right to report the matter to The Florida Bar, the agency that oversees the practice
and behavioi- of all la�vyers in Florida. For inforn�ation on how to reach The Florida Bar, call
�50/561-5600, or contact the local bar association. Any disagreement between you and your
la�vyer about a fee can be taken to court and you may �vish to lure another lawyer to help you
resolve ilus disagreement. Usually fee disputes must be handled in a separate lawsuit, unless your
fee contract provides for arbiiration. You can request, but may not require, that a provision for
arbitration (�inder Chapter 682, Florida Statutes, or iuider the fee arbitration rule of the Rules
Regulating The Flori&z Bar) be included in your fee contract.

SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION:
Approve legal services agreement with Gina Grimes, Esq. at Hill Ward and Henderson for representation of the Community
Development Board, Building/Flood Board of Adjustment and Appeals, and other boards as necessary. (consent)
SUMMARY:
Gina Grimes has represented the Community Development Board since 2005 in order to prevent potential conflicts of interest of inside
counsel. It was recently necessary for Ms. Grimes to represent the Building/Flood Board of Appeals.
Ms. Grimes' current Legal Services Agreement references representation only to the Community Development Board. Additionally,
Ms. Grimes' hourly rate has not been increased since 2005 and is currently $140.00 per hour for representation and $105.00 per hour for
travel time, well below the local average.
A new agreement will include reference to the Building/Flood Board of Appeals and other boards as necessary, and will increase Ms.
Grimes' hourly rate to $150.00 per hour for representation and $105.00 per hour for travel time.

SECTIONS 13.1 THROUGH 13.7; PROVIDING FOR REPEAL OF ALL
ORDINANCES IN CONFLICT; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY;
PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, the Clearwater City Council finds that a number of Clearwater
residents establish and maintain important personal, emotional, and economic
relationships with persons to whom they are not married under Florida law. Individuals
forming such domestic partnerships often live in a committed family relationship.
Domestic partners and their dependants may be denied certain rights for lack of a
system that establishes recognition of such partnerships; and
WHEREAS, the 2010 census indicates that 5.9% of American households
identified themselves as living in unmarried partner households, which is an increase
over the 5.2% of such households identified in the 2000 census. The 2010 Census
data indicates that in Clearwater approximately 7.5% of households are unmarried
partner households, which is a significant increase over the 6.2% of such households
identified in the 2000 census.
WHEREAS, the Clearwater City Council finds that the existence of a Domestic
Partnership Registry is attractive to companies that value diversity and can assist the
City of Clearwater in its economic development by attracting companies to locate and
make capital investments in the City, and will promote the City's reputation as a
growing, vibrant and diverse community; and
WHEREAS, the rules developed to implement the provisions of this ordinance
shall be construed to accomplish the policies and purposes of the ordinance.
However, this ordinance shall not be construed to supersede any federal, state, or
