(consent) SUMMARY: On September 20, 2012, the City Council accepted a grant from Communities Putting Prevention to Work (CPPW) through the Pinellas County Health Department in an amount not to exceed $20,000 for the purchase of equipment and marketing materials for the implementation of the Clearwater Gateway Farmers Market. The InterCultural Advocacy Institute, Inc. (ICAI) has agreed to be the host agency and fiscal agent of the Clearwater Gateway Farmers Market. With the grant funding, the city purchased the equipment listed in Exhibit A. The city is declaring this equipment surplus to donate the equipment to the ICAI for the operation of the farmers market. The Donation Agreement outlines the terms and conditions for the donation of equipment to the ICAI. If the ICAI discontinues being the host agency and/or fiscal agent within three years, the remaining equipment will be returned to the city. The 2012-2013 season for t�is farmers market is expected to begin on November 17, 2012 and finish in May 2013. The Clearwater Gateway Farmers Market meets the goals of the East Gateway Vision Plan approved by the CRA in January 2012. The Plan calls for the creation of a walkable district and events that will attract more visitors to the District and create activities for community interaction and economic opportunity. The farmers market would support local businesses by expanding their customer base, creating new supply lines, providing marketing opportunities, and improving their entrepreneurial skills. Furthermore, it would create a unique and positive identity that revitalizes the East Gateway District and instills neighborhood pride and a sense of ownership.

SUMMARY: A Water and Sewer rate study was completed in June 2011 and resulted in the City Council approving reductions in previously approved rate increases in Fiscal Year 2012 and Fiscal Year 2013 from 6% each year to 4.5%. Additionally the Council approved rate increases of 4.5% each for Fisca] Year 2014, Fiscal Year 2015 and Fiscal Year 2016. These rate increases are suf�cient to provide for operations, capital projects, and debt service on bonds during this time period. A limited rate study update was completed in June 2012, which identified a need for approximately $177.3 million in capital projects from Fiscal Year 20l 3 through Fiscal Year 2018, with bonds to be issued in Fiscal Year 2014 for projects costing approximately $33 million and in Fiscal Year 2016 far projects costing approximately $42 million. The Fiscal Year 2014 bond issue of approximately $33 million will partially finance the projects totaling $43.9 million on the attached list. In addition to the bond proceeds, rate revenues, grants, impact fees and R and R revenues will provide the balance of the project funding. The date of bonds issuance will be deterrnined at a later date based on market conditions. The Water and Sewer fund will be incurring expenses on these projects prior to the issuance of the bonds. This reimbursement resolution will allow the City to be reimbursed from the Bond proceeds. The 2012 limited rate study update verified that the approved rate increases for Fiscal Year 2013 through Fiscal Year 2016 of 4.5% each year is sufficient, and annual increases of 4.5% for several years following Fiscal Year 2016 would also be sufficient to provide the revenue needed for operations, projects and debt service.

WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Clearwater, Florida (the "Issuer") has determined that the need exists to construct capital improvements and expansions to the City's Water and Sewer Utility System (collectively, the "Project"); NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CLEARWATER, FLORIDA THAT: SECTION 1. AUTHORITY. This Resolution (hereinafter called the "Resolution") is adopted pursuant to the provisions of the Florida Constitution, Chapter 166, Florida Statutes, and other applicable provisions of law.

Pending reimbursement, the Issuer expects to use funds on deposit in its water and sewer utility funds, general funds and other funds legally available to pay a portion of the cost of the Project. It is not reasonably expected that the total amount of debt to be incurred by the Issuer to reimburse itself for expenditures paid with respect to the Project will exceed $33,000,000. This Resolution is intended to constitute a"declaration of official intent" within the meaning of Section 1.150-2 of the Income Tax Regulations. SECTION 3. SEVERABILITY. If any one or more of the provisions of this Resolution shall for any reason be held illegal or invalid, such illegality or invalidity shall not affect any other provision of this Resolution, but this Resolution shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal or invalid provision had not been contained therein. SECTION 4. REPEALING CLAUSE. All resolutions or orders and parts thereof in conflict herewith to the extent of such conflicts, are hereby superseded and repealed. SECTION 5. EFFECTIVE DATE. This resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption. 1 Item # 3 Resolution No. 12-12 Attachment number 1 \nPage 2 PASSED AND ADOPTED this day of , 2012. George N.

Item # 3 PDFConvert.17743.1.WtrSwr Projs_for_Reimb_Res_12-12/Sheet1 10/15/2012 Work Session Council Chambers — City Hall SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION: Meeting Date:10/29/2012 Approve the termination of the Administrative Agreement between the City and United States Conference of Mayors providing for a Master Deferred Compensation Program offering voluntary individual defined contribution retirement account plan services. (consent) SUMMARY: The City entered into an agreement with the United States Conference of Mayars (USCM) in 1992 in order to take advantage of the Master Deferred Compensation Program developed by USCM for Cities and other local government agencies. Since that time, USCM has had an arrangement with Nationwide Retirement Solutions, Inc. (formerly PEBSCO) to serve as an independent plan administrator for these services. The City is currently contracted with Nationwide Retirement Solutions as one of two providers for the City's 457 Deferred Compensation Plan, a voluntary individual retirement account plan funded by plan participants with no contributions from the City. Recently, USCM made a decision to end its arrangement with Nationwide and contract with a different provider for the services under its Master Program. The City's preference at this time is to terminate its current relationship with USCM in order to not be beholden to the decisions of USCM with respect to the provider of deferred compensation services to the City, but to have the ability instead to procure competitive bids for these services when deemed appropriate by the City.

(consent) SUMMARY: The City is currently contracted with Nationwide Retirement Solutions as one of two providers far the City's 457 Deferred Compensation Plan, a voluntary individual retirement account plan funded by plan participants with no contributions from the City. The City's arrangement with Nationwide resulted from an agreement between the City and the United States Conference of Mayors (USCM) with whom Nationwide (formerly PEBSCO) had contracted to serve as an independent plan administrator of the USCM Master Deferred Compensation Prograin for Cities and other local government agencies. Recently, USCM made a decision io end its arrangement with Nationwide and contract with a different provider for these services. The City's preference at this time is to maintain its current relationship with Nationwide as a provider of 457 deferred compensation plan services. A decision will be made at a later date with respect to the appropriateness of procuring competitive bids for these services. This Administrative Services Agreement has been reviewed and approved by City staff, the City's benefits consultant the Gehring Group, and the City's defined contribution retirement plan consultant/advisor Montgomery Retirement Plan Advisors. This agreement is for an open—ended duration with the provision for either �arty to terminate with 120 days written notice to the other party. There is no cost to the City associated with this agreement.

Nationwide Retirement Solutions, Inc.: Plan Sponsor : Name: Title: (name of entiry) By: Name: Title: Effecrive Date: � Item # 5 Work Session Council Chambers — City Hall SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION: Meeting Date:10/29/2012 Approve in concept the extension to the Interlocal Agreement for the Pinellas Public Library cooperative. (consent) SUMMARY: The Interlocal Agreement that created the Pinellas Public Library Consortium (PPLC) will expire in September 2013. This agreement creates a structure that enables Pinellas unincorporated area tax funds to be distributed to cities to compensate them far providing library service to all library residents. It also enables PPLC to apply for and receive State Aid funds and coordinate library services throughout the county. Council is being asked to endorse in principle, but not to approve, the agreement for the following reasons: 1. It is the unanimous opinion of all of the participants in the Interlocal agreement that having a library consortium provides value for all of the residents of the county. Libraries are stronger working together then when tbey try to stand alone and public service is enhanced far all library users. County support strengthens local libraries. 2. The current consortia arrangement has worked effectively for over 20 years and has the ongoing support of the participating cities. Although alternative governing and funding structures were examined, none generated any significant interesi or suppart. 3. The City Managers have spent many months working to refine the Interlocal agreement to address some of the issues of mission clarification, Board structure and the funding concerns. They have created a document that they believe all of the cities can support. 4. Certain issues remain unresolved in the current version of the Interlocal revision. A final document coming to the Council may or may not be able to resolve all of these; Council should be aware of our concerns. a. Pinellas County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) has a work session scheduled for November 13, 2012, to discuss the agreement. They are bringing in a consultant to facilitate a discussion that will probably extend well beyond the proposed Interlocal Agreement. There does not seem to be strong support at this moment for accepting the current proposal as is on the part of the county. b. The Eastlake Library situation is unresolved in the agreement as provided. Eastlake is the only library that is funded by from the County general fund, not a city or special taxing district. The Eastlake community and the BOCC want to see this changed. Any change for Eastlake will reduce the amount of funding available to other libraries in the county. That ]oss could be as much as $1 million a year. c. The County is now funding libraries at less than the .5 mills approved by voters. There is no assurance this will change, even if Eastlalce funding further reduces county support to other libraries. The lower funding level is a choice made by the BOCC. d. The funding formula was not changed in this agreement. The disparity in support from cities ranges from $64/per capita to $13/per capita. Service to non—residents rangesfrom more than 50% of total usage to around 10% of total usage, creating vastly different burdens on the cooperative libraries. None of this is addressed in the current proposal. e. The City Manager's group spent a significant amount of time and effort to identify the core mission and services that they feel PPLC should insure, yet nothing in the current proposal provides funding to support those core services or makes participation essential to membership in PPLC. The recommendation to the Council will be that they endarse in principle the extension of the Interlocal Agreement for the Pinellas Public Library Cooperative with the expectation that a final proposal will come before them prior to the September 30, 2013 end of the current agreement.

WHEREAS, on February 2, 2012, the City of Clearwater (City) authorized the execution of a Joint Participation Agreement (JPA) AQJ28 between the City and Florida's Department of Transportation (FDOT) for a project to install the appropriate lighting, markings, and a Precision Approach Path Indicator (PAPI) System to the Clearwater Airpark runway, and extend the runway to the north to improve safety; and WHEREAS, on June 20, 2012, the City of Clearwater (City) authorized the execution of Supplemental Joint Participation Agreement (JPA) AQJ28 Number 1 to include additional work such as the completion of groundwater cleanup, the purchase and installation of an automated weather operating system (AWOS), and the purchase of a portable fueling trailer, auxiliary power unit, and aircraft tug at no additional cost to either party; and WHEREAS, FDOT has agreed to amend the JPA via Supplemental Joint Participation Agreement Number 2 to include additional funding in the amount of $125,000.00 for the completion of groundwater cleanup, the purchase and installation of an automated weather operating system (AWOS), and the purchase of a portable fueling trailer, auxiliary power unit, and aircraft tug at 80% FDOT and 20% City funding; and WHEREAS, adoption of Resolution 12-21 would authorize the appropriate officials to execute Supplemental Joint Participation Agreement Number 2, which is attached hereto as Exhibit "A;" now, therefore, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CLEARWATER, FLORIDA: Item # 7 Resolution No. 12-21 Attachment number 2 \nPage 2 Section 1. The City Council hereby accepts and approves the Supplemental Joint Participation Number 2 between the City and the State of Florida Department of Transportation, Financial Project No.: 42255419401, Contract No.: AQJ28, at the Clearwater Airpark. Section 2. This resolution shall take effect immediately upon adoption. PASSED AND ADOPTED this Approved as to form: Camilo Soto Assistant City Attorney day of , 2012. 2 George N.Cretekos Mayor Attest: Rosemarie Call City Clerk Item # 7 Resolution No. 12-21 Work Session Council Chambers — City Hall SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION: Meeting Date:10/29/2012 Approve a one—year renewal of Blanket Purchase Orda BR 507650 with Grosz Stamper Inc. of Tampa, FL, in the amount of $200,000 for the purchase of labor, materials and equipinent to perform various concrete projects including sidewalks, slabs, and curbs for a variety of parks and recreation maintenance and construction projects. (consent) SUMMARY: Staff is requesting that Blanket Purchase Order (BPO) BR 507650 be renewed to Grosz Stamper Inc. of Tampa, FL who was the lowest most responsive bidder (Bid 24-10) for concrete si�wallcs and flatwork in 2010. The City is not obligated to use any or the entire amount being requested; in Fiscal Year 2011/12 the City spent approximately $120,000 on various concrete work and in Fiscal Year 2010/11 $150,000. With over 100 parks in the City, there is a steady supply of minor work projects needed to repair sidewalks and bike paths in parlcs, construct and repair bleacher pads, dugouts and flatwork at ballfields and parks. It is difficult and time consuming to get quotes and/or bids for each small project and we find that we get better pricing by going with larger contracts/BPOs. Any large construction project that exceeds the $100,000 limit will be bid out separately according to current City policy and brought befare the Council for approval. Grosz Stamper Inc. has been very responsive to the Ciry's needs this past year and after researching current costs for concrete work, staff has discovered that the original bid price is still very competitive and lower than the competition. Funding for this BPO will come from a variety of operating and Capital Improvement codes in the Parks and Recreation Department.

(consent) SUMMARY: The Council has established and approved annual CIP funding for severa] maintenance projects including Light Replacement and Repair CIP 315-94528. In part, the scope of this p�ject is the annual replacement and repair of lighting systems at various parks and recreation sites. Funding for this project has decreased over the years due to the recent refurbishment of several major systems at Countryside, E.C. Moore and Frank Tack Park. However, the west ballfield at Joe DiMaggio Sports Complex is one of the last sport fields that need a total makeover. The current system on the west field has lighting levels well below acceptable standards for high school and professional baseball. This project will provide for the installation of four new concrete poles similar to the other poles on site as well as new light fixtures and lighting hardware and controls to a lighting standard of 70—foot candles in the in�eld and 50—foot c�dles in the outfield, which brings it to the standards existing on the east field. Normally replacements of lighting systems are spaced out so that the available balance of funds in CIP 315-94528 is sufficient to complete the replacements; however, due to the size of this project and reduction over the past few years of funding, staff is requesting that $13,000 from CIP 315-93604 `Boardwalk and DockRepair and Replacement" be transferred at first quarter to cover tbe shortage needed to do this project. Capital project 315-94528, Light Replacement and Rq�air has $121,930 available for this project. The balance of $13,000 will be provided with the transfer of $13,000 from capital project 3 1 5-93 604, Boardwalk and Dock Repair and Rq�lacement. The transfer of funds from CIP 315-93604 will not adversely impact the schedule of boardwalk and dock replacement projects planned for this year.

(WSO) SUMMARY: This input is to be used in working with FDOT (Florida Department of Transportation) and the Metropolitan Planning Organization on the LRTP (Long Range Transportation Plan) amendment that will be needed. This concept plan will be incorporated into the final plans FDOT is formulating for the RRR (resurfacing, reconstruction, and rehabilitation) project that is scheduled for the 2014/15 fiscal year. Replacement of the railroad crossings is part of that RRR project as well. FDOT is working with city staff on the scope of the MOT plan for this project including the railroad crossing replacements. The City of Clearwater has no financial obligation for this project.

Jill Quilien, Michae9 Patna, Himanshu Read Read: 10/8/2012 12:49 PM Read: 10/8l2012 12:53 PM The link below for the Grimail Crawford FTP site has the latest version of a concept plan FDOT is working on with city staff for the mitigation of the East Avenue Trail crossing on Court Street and Chestnut Street. As you are probably�znrare � there is concern on the part of the bike community and the MPO about this crossing and this concept is what thq�DOT and city traffic ops staff has been working on to improve the crossing and make it safer. It essentially narrows �ourt between Myrtle Avenue and East Avenue to the two center lanes that go through to the beach. The idea is it cre�es a shorter ped/bike crossing for the trail from four lanes to two lanes and along with the flasher operation makes it safer. The same idea is applied to the Chestnut crossing as it is intended that the two lanes coming off the beach to go to SR 60 be more directly routed. The work would be done as part of the RRR work (resurfacing, reconstruction, rehabilitation) in 2014/15 which also includes replacement of the entire railroad crossing. I would like to send this in a printed out mounted format for the City Manager and Council Members to look at to determine if they want to see this at a work session meeting or just informally review it. After City Council sees this and gives their blessing it would go to the MPO for a LRTP amendment. If City Council does not like it and feels that they do not want this done then we need to let FDOT know so that they can determine how much weight that carries in the process. It is quite possible that FDOT will proceed whether City Council supports it or not but at least City Council has input early in the process. I would note that FDOT was pushing to get the MPO LRTP amendment before City Council even saw this but I insisted that CC should see it early on. It was quite strange really that FDOT staff was viewing it that way. We have modeled it using Synchro and the narrowing does not create a serious delay issue. The only downside is that traffic in the outside lanes approaching Court have to go either right or left but at the same time they are provided plenty of guidance. I am sending you the link below so you can look at it and see if my approach is appropriate of if I should try something else as far as showing it to council.

(consent) SUMMARY: The City currently operates one reverse osmosis (RO) water treatment plant at Water Treatment Plant (WTP) 1 and is preparing to build a second RO plant at WTP 2. The concentrate from the RO Plant 1 is currently discharged to the wastewater system, where it is treated at a wastewater treatment plant, and the effluent is used for reclaimed water irrigation. The proposed RO WTP 2 will produce concentrate with water quality that is too brackish to discharge to a wastewater treatment plant. As a result, the City is pursuing a Class I injection well for disposal of the RO concentrate from both RO Plant 1 and RO Plant 2. The drilling and testing of a concentrate injection deep exploratory well at the existing WTP 2 was recently completed. Leggette, Brashears and Graham, Inc. (LBG) completed the design, permitting and construction inspection of this exploratory well, which was used to investigate the potential for injecting concentrate from the proposed RO WTP 2 into the Avon Park Formation of the Floridan aquifer (below the drinking water zone). Testing was performed during the construction of the exploratory well to confirm that conditions are suitable as an injection well for disposal of the concentrate. The previous workorders (1 and 2) consisted of preparation of a Basis of Design Report, preparation of the application to construct a Class V Exploratory Well, preparation of Bid Specifications, and assistance with the bidding process for a well construction Contractor; and Construction Inspection of a Class V concentrate injection exploratory well. This supplemental workorder for LBG includes design, permitting and bidding services to construct a Class I Test Injection Well (completion/conversion of the Class V Exploratory Well) and associated monitoring wells.

This access has proved to be pivotal in getting particular bills of local interest, such as the City of Clearwater Beach Marina Property bill, placed timely on the legislative committee agenda and passed. The long term relationships with executive branch agency heads and key staff coupled with the ability to meet with agency personnel quickly in their Tallahassee offices provides Pennington with beneficial access to executive branch decision makers throughout the year. This has been especially beneficial to our local government clients when working on agency grant funding issues and in numerous environmental permitting and submerged land lease issues. The members of the Firm have also developed longstanding and time-tested relationships with Executive Branch staff through service in the Executive Branch under at least 6 gubernatorial administrations from the 1960's through the first decade of the 21 st Century, both Republican and Democrat. While elected officials must leave office under term limits, many of the personnel and staff remain in public service. The relationships built over the years with staff members gives Pennington the ability to open doors and advocate on behalf of clients on a level built on trust and mutual respect built over the years. The members of Pennington are frequently called upon by Legislative Committee staff and Executive Agency staff for our legal expertise in various areas of Committee and Agency jurisdiction.

Detail of how project success was measured The Pennington Firm is driven to success by achieving the desired result for the client, not by seeking recognition or credit for the accomplishment. As lawyers, the Pennington Firm is specifically trained to find answers and solve problems. In representing the City of Clearwater since 1996 we have worked on and achieved numerous successes before the legislature and state agencies. These successes can be measured in the value to the City and historically include the following initiatives and outcomes: Brownfield Redevelopment: Pennington was active in passage of the 1997 Brownfields Redevelopment Act and in the 1998 Brownfield glitch bill. The purpose of these Acts is to provide meaningful environmental and economic incentives for the cleanup of and private investment in the development of contaminated and abandoned urban areas. Pennington has continued to work on obtaining Brownfield Remediation Funding. Retention of Spring Training Franchises: The Firm, representing the City of Clearwater, worked to write and pass legislation providing tax dollars to renovate spring training baseball stadiums which is intended to keep major league teams from leaving Florida's Grapefruit League for the Cactus League in Arizona and Nevada. Teams will be required to stay at a current Florida site for at least fifteen years and local governments must be willing to pay for at least half the upgrades to qualify for shares of $75 million in state sales tax revenue that would be allocated for those projects over 30 years. Submerged Lands Local bill: Pennington worked with the City's legal counsel, the Pinellas County Legislative Delegation, the Department of Environmental Protection Division of State Lands and other stakeholders to draft and pass legislation ratifying uses of submerged lands adjacent to the Memorial Causeway.

Article V Filing Fees: Pennington worked on behalf of the City to revise code enforcement filing fee to $10.00 for those cases resolved outside of court and $40.00 for contested proceedings. Implementation of "One City One Future" programs: From 1997-2002, the City of Clearwater sought funding to implement its "One City One Future" vision. These appropriations included unique and creative projects. For example, in 1997, Pete Dunbar and Martha Edenfield obtained a$750,000.00 appropriation for the City of Clearwater to create, transport and showcase a Florida tourism pavilion in the 1998 Olympics in Nagano, Japan, and worked closely with the Secretary of the Department of Transportation to reinterpret substantive law making the City eligible for up to $13 million in funding for the Memorial Causeway Bridge.

Pennington has worked successfully to defeat or neutralize legislation on issues such as the control of solid waste recovered material, mandatory property set asides for working waterFronts and mandatory restriction of public library internet access. Pennington has been instrumental in passing and later defending the grandfather clause protecting local ordinances relating to the seasonal sale and use of fertilizer. Pennington also worked to defeat legislation that would preempt local ordinances related to transient rental property.

Work Plan 1. Approach to Scope of Services A. Ability to maintain a presence in Tallahassee on behalf of the City of Clearwater and an office located in Tallahassee Pennington, Moore, Wilkinson, Bell & Dunbar, P.A., is one of the leading law firms in Florida in the areas of strategic planning, lobbying, and governmental relations. The Pennington Firm or "Pennington" as we are known around the Capitol has a diverse client base which includes Fortune 50 companies, statewide non-profit organizations and associations, as well as a variety of governmental and municipal entities. Pennington provides clients with legal expertise and experience in the areas of litigation; legislative and governmental affairs; corporate, land use, environmental, local government, administrative, public utilities, health care, real property, and tax law; estate planning and probate. The Pennington Firm is a Florida corporation originally founded in 1972 with approximately 37 professionals, including 10 members of its Governmental and Legislative Affairs practice group, and approximately 40 support staff. The Pennington Firm holds all requisite licenses and credentials to engage in lobbying activities and in the practice of law, and keeps current in its registration for lobbying requirements, as well as any reporting requirements for gifts and expenditures. Further, the Pennington Firm and its members are governed by the Rules of Ethics of the Florida Bar, including those relating to confidentiality, identifying conflicts, and notifying clients of conflicts. Pennington has an "AV" rating in the national Martindale-Hubbell Legal Directory — the highest rating possible based on a firm's professional qualifications and ethics. We have a depth of legislative and regulatory experience that only a firm rooted in Tallahassee for the past four decades can offer its clients. Our attorneys and special consultants — many of whom served as state legislators, corporate general counsel, executive branch and senior legislative staffers, and government general counsels — have a proven track record of effectively influencing government policy through strategic governmental representation. The Pennington Firm will undertake lobbying services on behalf of the City from its main offices, located within a block of the Capitol building in Tallahassee, Florida. The Pennington Firm has the capability to communicate effectively with the City concerning City of Clearwater RFP 40-12 www.penningtonlaw.com 48 Item # 15 Attachment number 3 \nPage 7 PENNINGTON LAW FIRM Attorneys at Law its needs and interests. The Firm's 10 full-time Tallahassee-based lobbyists will provide the City with year-round contacts to legislators and, just as importantly, legislative staff. Although the current corporate organization of Pennington was established in 1993, the founding members of Pennington have been practicing together as a Tallahassee law firm since 1972. Pennington provides its clients legal expertise and extensive experience in the areas of litigation; legislative and governmental affairs; business and corporate, land use, environmental, local government, and administrative law; banking; patents and intellectual property; real property, including condominium and homeowners' association law; tax, estate planning, probate; health care; insurance; sports and entertainment; lobbying; and public utilities law. Pennington practices statewide, representing public and private entities with diverse interests in Florida and throughout the United States and Canada. We practice before all state agencies and regional regulatory bodies, including all 5 water management districts, and represents clients before local governments throughout the state. In 1999, we opened our Tampa Office to serve the growing list of clients from the Tampa Bay Area. It is expected that the services described in this RFP would be perFormed using the Tallahassee office. PENNINGTON, MOORE, WILKINSON, BELL & DUNBAR, P.A.

Ability to provide timely information, assessments and reports of the state legislative budgetary and regulatory issues affecting the City including regular updates on City related issues We offer the City a range of policies, procedures, and techniques to be used in perForming the scope of services required. These include the capability to communicate effectively with the City, the ability to draw on years of experience to recommend pro- active strategies to benefit the City, the depth and experience to advocate for the City on any issue, and the ability to provide in-depth research and complicated legislation drafting service to the City. Functioning as a true team, the Firm's policy and practice is to assign client issues and tasks to Pennington member(s) with the most experience, best contacts and overall capabilities to perform the task. Much of the Legislature's agenda is established and its business addressed during Interim Committee weeks prior to session. Pennington covers all Interim Committee weeks and any Special Session. The Pennington Governmental and Legislative Affairs Practice Group meet weekly to schedule coverage of issues and interim committee meetings. Each client will have a specific legislative affairs team assigned as the lead client contact. Once the team is formed, specific issue, general subject matter and administrative assignments are made. Administrative assignments include primary contact person for the client, bill tracking, calendar development, and report preparation. The entire Governmental and Legislative Affairs Practice Group meets together at least weekly during the session, and members from the various teams meet at least daily. All Governmental and Legislative Affairs Practice Group members are familiar with all client issues so that they are able to share pertinent information with the appropriate team leaders. A team leader is responsible for management of strategy, internal communication, task assignments and oversight of team members. Team members are responsible for appropriately and effectively carrying out assignments and internal communication. This approach ensures that no client priority is overlooked. Key to effective representation will be the establishment of clear lines of communication between the client and the Firm. During the legislative session, we are available days and nights, 7 days a week to respond to any calls, e-mails or texts from the City Commission or designated City staff. Pennington is result oriented and will devote the hours as necessary to achieve the legislative goals of the City. City of Clearwater RFP 40-12 www.penningtonlaw.com 50 Item # 15 Attachment number 3 \nPage 9 PENNINGTON LAW FIRM Attorneys at Law To facilitate immediate contact when necessary, Pennington will provide the City with a list of the cellular and office telephone numbers, e-mail addresses, and other key contact information. While the Legislature is not in session, Pennington will report via conference call or written updates to the appropriate City officials on an as needed basis to share information, provide updates and progress reports, discuss strategy and goals, and assign coverages. All 10 lobbyists of the Pennington Firm will be at the Capitol during session covering meetings of interest to the client and coordinating as needed with The City staff and other Firm members. While our lawyers and consultants are at the Capitol, our direct support staff of 4 administrative assistants, 2 receptionists, as well as paralegals, law clerks and runners, assist from the office. Using a true team approach for clients, we provide 100% coverage of client issues. Due to simultaneous scheduling of House and Senate committee hearings, it is difficult for one lobbyist to effectively cover all of the issues and meetings that relate to the client's issues. Pennington effectively uses our depth of professional talent to ensure that nothing is overlooked. As a Tallahassee based firm, the Pennington Firm does not have to contend with any travel issues and is able to be in any state office within 30 minutes. Our Tallahassee offices are literally a few hundred feet from the Capitol building, allowing us to respond to emergency issues on behalf of the City, whether the issue arises during session or in the interim, quickly and efficiently. Pennington maintains excellent legal and administrative resources bolstering the Firm's ability to draft complicated pieces of legislation. Pennington prides itself on its lawyers and former legislative staff inembers who have drafted some of the most complex legislation considered in recent decades. Pennington is equipped to handle client legislative research requests. The Firm's advanced research capabilities include utilization of the latest legislative and legal research technologies to track City-related issues and identify emerging opportunities which might impact the City. These include online access to legislative information via Online Sunshine, Westlaw and other Internet resources. Pennington subscribes to the LobbyTools legislative tracking system. This system allows Pennington to set up accounts for each client and track electronically the movement of legislation through the process. Further, the system can be programmed City of Clearwater RFP 40-12 www.penningtonlaw.com 51 Item # 15 Attachment number 3\nPage 1 � PENNINGTON LAW FIRM Attorneys at Law to e-mail or page the Firm's lobbyists anytime important legislation is acted upon. The system provides us access to all filed legislation, summaries of bills, and bill analyses. LobbyTools also scans all legislation for amendments to statutes that impact the City and will notify Pennington of such activity. Pennington is prepared to obtain documentation and research materials and deliver materials at the request of the City. While Pennington represents numerous governmental entities and private concerns, each of these representations varies in scope and complexity. By utilizing a team approach to lobbying, Pennington ensures that all client projects receive the requisite time, resources and management attention. C. Ability to Effectively Communicate City Council Positions to the Legislature, the Administration and State agencies Pennington employs a multi-tiered approach to its organization and management of the issues of a particular client. We will evaluate the client's issues and assign a team of lobbyists. Issues are then broken down by subject matter, and in assigning the lobby team, Pennington will weigh factors such as the scope and complexity of the issues, whether there are non-firm members on a larger lobby team, a particular lobbyist's experience in certain areas and relationships with particular members and committee staff, and other miscellaneous factors. Once the team is formed, specific issue, general subject matter and administrative assignments are made. Administrative assignments include primary contact person for the client, bill tracking, calendar development, and report preparation. The entire Pennington Governmental Affairs and Legislative Practice Group meets together at least weekly during the session, and Firm members from the various teams meet at least daily. All practice group members are familiar with all client issues so that they are able to share pertinent information with the appropriate team leaders. A team leader is responsible for management of strategy, internal communication, task assignments and oversight of team members. Firm members are responsible for appropriately and effectively carrying out assignments and internal communication. Pennington's full range of lobbying legislative counsel and advocacy services include regularly meeting with the individual members of the Legislature from every area of the state in order to clearly articulate and advocate the City's position on issues. We are available to appear and testify at Legislative Committee hearings on behalf of the City in support of or in opposition to legislation. Each and every member of Pennington is City of Clearwater RFP 40-12 www.penningtonlaw.com 52 Item # 15 Attachment number 3 \nPage 1 PENNINGTON LAW FIRM Attorneys at Law available to attend and appear before committee meetings on behalf of the City as assigned. Pennington has the ability and skill to work with legislative bill drafting offices to prepare proposed legislation and amendments in the correct form and format. As part of our issue advocacy, we regularly prepare white papers and issue summaries to assist legislators and staff through clear and concise explanations of often complex issues. Pennington will monitor and review all substantive floor amendments and bills, and will prepare reports advising the City of the status of legislation and the City's issues during the legislative session. At the direction of the City, Pennington will schedule meetings for the Mayor, members of the City Council, City Manager or City Legislative staff with members of the Legislature, the administration and with state agency representatives to discuss the issues of interest and importance to the City. Pennington will provide information and counsel on the timing, key points and subject matter to be discussed at these meetings. Pennington will also advise as to the timing and importance of writing letters in support of opposition of an issue. Each and every member of the Pennington Firm is available to work on issues based on the needs and best interests of the client. Often, relationships and contacts with the legislators and the staff are as important as knowledge of the issues. The depth of talent on the Pennington Firm allows for coordination of the best contact person(s) with those with knowledge of the issue in order to gain the best access point and messenger to get the interests of the client presented to the appropriate decision maker. We will coordinate with the City staff and any and all team members, as needed. Team members will be assigned to handle certain issues based upon individual expertise and unique legislative contacts. The City of Clearwater team leaders will include Pete Dunbar and Martha Edenfield. However, Pennington will engage its entire governmental affairs section for the City as needed. These additional members are Sam Bell, Doug Bell, Marc Dunbar, Mark Delegal, Kevin Crowley, Gene Adams, Joshua Aubuchon and Steve Roddenberry. With over 200 years of combined governmental experience as legislators serving on or chairing all of the different committees, legislative staff serving for various committees, administrative staff overseeing a whole host of issues, and as private lobbyists representing a wide spectrum of corporate, not-for-profit and governmental clients, City of Clearwater RFP 40-12 www.penningtonlaw.com 53 Item # 15 Attachment number 3 \nPage 1 PENNINGTON LAW FIRM Attorneys at Law Pennington has a broad range of experience and expertise. We recognize the value of coordination with other stakeholders such as the Florida League of Cities and the Florida Shore and Beach Preservation Association, to create a team of representatives for client needs. We are driven to success by achieving the desired result for the client, not by seeking recognition or credit for the accomplishment. As lawyers, we are specifically trained to find answers and solve problems, including creating programs and drafting legislation to implement the legislative goals of the City. D. Ability to provide timely information and advice on state funding to support City Programs and facilitate consideration of applications, support grant application funding, ability to spearhead and seek grant opportunities Pennington will identify and notify the appropriate City personnel in advance of opportunities related to grants and funding availability for transportation, community and economic development, environmental matters, infrastructure improvement, hurricane recovery efforts, housing and urban development, homeless programs, intermodal programs, and any other areas that may be of interest to the City. Pennington will work with City Department heads and staff to spearhead efforts to seek demonstration grant opportunities for funding the City's priorities. Pennington also will work closely to assist the City in obtaining state permits and grants as well as helping to identify grant opportunities. Pennington always strives to get the best for its clients by creating a proactive atmosphere for the client. The Firm's experience creating a state spring training funding program on behalf of the City of Clearwater is a good example of creating a proactive atmosphere. In analyzing the Governor's vetoes of the initial spring training funding, Pennington created a strategy for client success in the next session. Drawing on the legislative experience of drafting and passing the first publicly funded sports stadium in Florida's history and the knowledge of various tax incentive/credit programs, we found an untapped source of tax credits and drafted detailed legislation for a new statewide program to use these tax credits for the benefit of Clearwater. Pennington worked with affiliated spring training venues in the passage of the legislation, but always made sure the ranking criteria would have Clearwater safely in the funding allocation. The program was a success, passing the Legislature unanimously and being signed by the Governor, and was the cornerstone of continuing Clearwater's spring training tradition. City of Clearwater RFP 40-12 www.penningtonlaw.com 54 Item # 15 Attachment number 3 \nPage 1 PENNINGTON LAW FIRM Attorneys at Law As another example of the Firm's creative initiative, Pennington was successful in passing legislation which granted a statutory 35-year submerged land lease to the City of Daytona Beach at a nominal cost for the lands underlying the historic Daytona Beach pier. We assisted the City of Daytona Beach in its application for funding before the Florida Communities Trust Board and were awarded a$10 million grant ($6 million state match) for development of the pier and boardwalk public space. E. Ability to work in conjunction with the Florida League of Cities in support or opposition of budget appropriations, legislation and agency rules or regulations affecting cities The Firm's experience as a longtime presence in the Tallahassee legal and lobbying arena has led to close relationships with key advocacy groups, including the Florida League of Cities (FLC). In the past, the Pennington Firm has represented the FLC as Tallahassee legal counsel. Pennington works closely with and enjoys strong ties developed over several decades with the FLC Government Affairs and Legal Team, including Mike Sittig, Chip Morrison, John Thomas, Scott Dudley and Kraig Conn. The Firm's lobbyists and lawyers work in conjunction with the FLC in advocating on issues affecting cities, including attending meetings to brief and coordinate with outside counsel. These issues have included tax reform, local option tourist development tax issues, affordable housing, working waterfronts, solid waste franchising, cell tower site issues, Hometown Democracy and water resource development. Pennington would continue to attend and participate in the meetings with the FLC as directed by the City. The Firm's Tallahassee location and legal expertise in Administrative Law is a valuable asset in coordinating with the FLC for opposition or support relating to agency rules or regulations affecting cities. F. Ability to review and provide advice on the development of the City of Clearwater's State Legislative Program The Pennington Firm consists of former legislators, former legislative staff and former executive agency staff. The depth of the experience in the legislative process and in governmental consulting provided by the Pennington Firm makes it unique among lobbying firms. City of Clearwater RFP 40-12 www.penningtonlaw.com 55 Item # 15 Attachment number 3 \nPage 1� PENNINGTON LAW FIRM Attorneys at Law For virtually any issue that arises, at least one member of Pennington has worked on a related issue. It is not at all unusual for members of Pennington to have authored or previously sponsored particular legislative programs which may be an issue in any given legislative session. Pennington has the experience to identify issues and recommend proactive legislative strategies that will benefit the City. With such a large, full-time lobby team based in Tallahassee representing a broad spectrum of clients with a wide array of issues, Pennington often is aware of potential legislation and opportunities well before the general public. If relevant to the City, these opportunities would be presented to the City, and Pennington would assist with the development of strategies to take advantage of such opportunities. Because of the depth of the Firm's collective experience as legislators, lawyers, lobbyists, and legislative staff, it has a keen understanding of what works and what does not work in the legislative arena. Pennington monitors the political issues of that may be surfacing in the state in the off- season and will keep the City apprised of those issues which may be an indication of the areas of interest for the upcoming Session.

Financial Statement Cost Summary Annual flat fee for Legislative Services -$48,000 Actual expenses not to exceed - 4 800 Total fee and reimbursed expenses - $52,800 E. Total Cost to Perform Services The scope and complexity of the project dictate the required personnel, expertise and expense necessary to accomplish the desired results. Success in the legislative arena and in the executive agencies of state government depends on the long-term relationships developed with public officials and staff. This includes work on campaigns, responsiveness to research requires, and problem solving generated by elected officials and by staff, and experience in prior public service. Providing services for governmental relations are hard to quantify at an hourly rate structure where the key to success is access. In order to maintain that relationship for clients, monitoring and lobbying on an hourly basis is unfeasible. Pennington proposes a flat fee for legislative services for each legislative cycle. Special projects not contemplated within the scope of services of this RFP will be agreed to in advance and billed separately at the Firm's current hourly rates of $125 to $300 an hour. Although we are not aware of any conflicts of interest at this time, if a direct conflict of interest in the representation of the City for lobbying services is asserted which requires the City to obtain independent representation for lobbying services, we propose that the fee for independent counsel as to the conflict issue be subtracted from the lobbying service contract fee amount.

Dougall-Sides Rosemarie Call Assistant City Attorney City Clerk Item # 16 8 Ordinance No. 8346-12 Work Session Council Chambers — City Hall Meeting Date:10/29/2012 SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION: Request for authority to institute a counterclaim in the case of Sabrina Lima DeRibeiro v. City of Clearwater, Case 12-8379Ci-20, on behalf of the City against Sabrina Lima DeRibeiro to recover $4,516.20 for dainages to City property. (consent) SUMMARY: This case arises from an incident that occurred on August 17, 2011, near the intersection of Sunset Point Road and Kings Highway, in which a City employee in a City vehicle and Sabrina Lima DeRibeiro were involved in a traffic collision. An action was instituted by DeRibeiro for injuries she allegedly received in this incident. There is, however, conflicting evidence as to the cause of the accident and who was at fault. The cost to repair the City's vehicle was estimated to total $4,516.20, however, it was determined that the vehicle was too damaged to warrant repair. Type: Operating Expenditure Current Year Budget?: Yes Budget Adjustment Comments: Current Year Cost: Not to Exceed: For Fiscal Year: Appropriation Code 0-590-07000-545900—S19— 000-0000 $1,500 $1,500 10/O1 /20l 2 to 09/30/2013 Amount $1,500 Budget Adjustment: Annual Operating Cost: Total Cost: Appropriation Comment None Review Approval: 1) Office of Management and Budget 2) Legal 3) Clerk 4) Assistant City Manager 5) City Manager 6) Clerk Cover Memo Item # 17 Work Session Council Chambers — City Hall SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION: Meeting Date:10/29/2012 Report to City Council on City Manager modifications to Library Fines and establishing an amnesty period from November 5, 2012 to December 21, 2012, allowing people to provide canned goods in lieu of payment for library fines. SUMMARY: During the past few years, a number of libraries have provided an amnesty period for library fines around the holiday season by allowing the public to substitute canned goods for fine money. For the library, the benefit is to encourage people to return their overdue items, which are far more valuable than the amount of the fines. For charities, it provides another method of collecting food during the holiday time. Far our patrons, it allows them to clear their recard and return to good standing with the library while helping a worthy cause. Staff anticipates a]oss to the city of approximately $2,000 in fine revenue. Not all patrons will chose to provide food in lieu of paying their fines, and the amnesty will not cover payments for lost or damaged materials or other fees outside of library fines; staff expects the impacts to be minimal. The library would be able to cover that cost from within the existing budget. Staff also anticipates some patrons not owing fines would chose to donate through the library. This would also support city efforts to collect and distribute food and gifts during the holiday season. For many years, library fines in the county had been set at $.10 a day. About three years ago, that amount was increased to $.15 a day. This year, the majority of libraries in the county are raising rates to $.20 a day for books. Council has given the City Manager the ability to approve that change. In addition, most libraries are moving to decrease the fines on DVDs from $1.00 a day to $.50 a day. Although this may seem contradictary, the experience in Ohio showed that revenue actually increased when this fine rate dropped. A person can check out eight DVDs at a time. At $1.00 a day, if they are 5 days late, they owe $40, which would be the maximum fine. This can be a daunting sum for some families, just for being a few days late. At the $.50 rate, they would owe $20, an amount many would find easier to pay of£ The justification for the much higher rate is no longer valid. DVDs are not more expensive than books; in fact, they are usually cheaper. The City has a solid collection of material and not trying to avoid scarcity. The greatest return on investment comes from getting materials back as quickly as possible and returning them to circulation, and a$1.00 fine rate on a small part of the collection does not encourage that. Type: Other Current Year Budget?: No Budget Adjustment: Yes Budget Adjustment Comments: The library would reduce the revenue expectaton from Fines (322101) by $2000. The library budget would be reduced by $2000.

However, 1 am also aware of fhe need to make the current emergency medical response system more efficient in ord�r io enhance its long term fiscal sustainabiiity. I aiso continue ta r�eeive input from the publ�c regarding their �erception that multiple units res�onding to minor medical situatinns is wasteful. i support the use oi nationally recognized protocols to prioritize t�e dispatch of t�e apprapriate type and number of units io calls for medical assistance. The decision in 201p io dispatch only fire department units to ealls #hat rypically do not require transport was a�asitive initiai step. The proposal to now dispatch only SEJNSi"AFi units to calls that iypieally j�st require trans�ort is another logical step tpwards rr�aking the system more efficient and better match resources to actuaf needs. By not dispatching a iire ur�it on such cails, thai unit will be available to answer critical cal(s that invnlve either a life-threatening mecliea� errtergeney or a#ire. A reduciion in unnecessary calls may ultimate[y resuit in the need for fewer EMS tire units, reducing the aperating cnsts for an EMS system ti�at is under financiai stress. In su►nmary, I support fhe recommendation of the Counfy Aciministrator and his staff to further implement Mecfical Priorfty Dispatch by only dispatching a SUNSTAR ambulance fo calis that do not require a�ire Department EMS u�tit.
