SUMMARY: Instrument Transformers, Inc. (ITI), a subsidiary of General Electric Company (GE), has been in Clearwater for 38 years. The company is currently located at 1907 Calumet St in Clearwater (also known as 1925 Calumet Street, Clearwater) and is 190,700 SF on 17.44 acres and employs 436. The company proposes an expansion of the facility to create a manufacturing Center of Excellence for GE. They are creating 263 new jobs (143 of these new jobs will, on average, pay at least $41,810, which is 100% of the Pinellas County Average Annual Wage as published by Enterprise Florida, Inc. on January 1, 2013). Company is proposing +/- 208,000 SF new construction and $49,000,000 in capital investment that includes $20.6 M in Machinery and Equipment, $26.7 M in Construction, and $1.7 M in land acquisition (which will be annexed into the City at a future date). The site plan was approved by the Community Development Board on October 15, 2013. Authorization to Negotiate On August 14, 2013, City Council approved Resolution 13-21 providing authorization for the Economic Development Director to negotiate possible incentives including tax refunds and exemptions, and cash and non-cash incentives as an inducement to expand Project Banner’s operations in the City of Clearwater. (Project Banner is the alias name given to the project in accordance with FS s.288.075 regarding request for confidentiality.) The resolution required that such incentives offered to and negotiated with Project Banner must yield an estimated payback period of no greater than 7 years with an estimated rate of return of no less than 10% as determined by economic impact analysis using Total Impact modeling by Impact Data Source. The resolution also states the maximum cash and value of non-cash incentives is not to exceed the value of the road improvements, fees, concessions, rebates, exemptions, waivers refunds and reductions. Further, any agreement reached under this resolution must be brought back before the City Council for final consideration. An Opinion Letter was transmitted to the company on September 6, 2013, and offered the following incentives: The Qualified Target Industry (QTI) Local Match (approved by Resolution 13-18 on August 14, 2013), cash and non-cash value of the certain proposed incentives, ED AVTE, and public service utility tax exemption (as proposed in Ordinance 8504-13). The offer was accepted as presented. On November 1, 2013, Economic Development and Housing received a complete and eligible Economic Development Ad Valorem Tax Exemption (ED AVTE) application and attachment form DR-418 from Instrument Transformers, Inc. requesting exemption of 75% for a period of 10 years. In accordance with Chapter 29, Article VII of the City’s Code of Ordinances, applicants may request an exemption on the Cover Memo Item # 1 increase in real and tangible personal property taxes (excluding land) which result from the company’s expansion of its Clearwater facility.

TITLE: 17.1 Licensee understands that Licensor occupies, uses and possesses lands, rights-of-way and rail corridors under all forms and qualities of ownership rights or facts, from full fee simple absolute to bare occupation. Accordingly, nothing in this Agreement shall act as or be deemed to act as any warranty, guaranty or representation of the quality of Licensor's title for any particular Encroachment or segment of Rail Corridor occupied, used or enjoyed in any manner by Licensee under any rights created in this Agreement. It is expressly understood that Licensor does not warrant title to any Rail Corridor and Licensee will accept the grants and privileges contained herein, subject to all lawful outstanding existing liens, mortgages and superior rights in and to the Rail Corridor, and all leases, licenses and easements or other interests previously granted to others therein. 17.2 The term "license," as used herein, shall mean with regard to any portion of the Rail Corridor which is owned by Licensor in fee simple absolute, or where the applicable law of the State where the Encroachment is located otherwise permits Licensor to make such grants to Licensee, a "permission to use" the Rail Corridor, with dominion and control over such portion of the Rail Corridor remaining with Licensor, and no interest in or exclusive right to possess being otherwise granted to Licensee. With regard to any other portion of Rail Corridor occupied, used or controlled by Licensor under any other facts or rights, Licensor merely waives its exclusive right to occupy the Rail Corridor and grants no other rights whatsoever under this Agreement, such waiver continuing only so long as Licensor continues its own occupation, use or control.

Licensee further acknowledges that it does not have the right to occupy any portion of the Rail Corridor held by Licensor in less than fee simple absolute without also receiving the consent of the owner(s) of the fee simple absolute estate. Further, Licensee shall not obtain, exercise or claim any interest in the Rail Corridor that would impair Licensor's existing rights therein.

Attachment number 1 \nPage 15 of 15 Item # 3 Work Session Council Chambers - City Hall Meeting Date:12/2/2013 SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION: Approve the Amendment to the City of Clearwater Cafeteria Plan document to provide for the allowance of the carryover of up to $500 in health Flexible Spending Arrangement account funds in accordance with United States Department of Treasury and IRS guidelines issued on October 31, 2013 and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent) SUMMARY: On October 31, 2013, the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the IRS issued a notice modifying the use-or-lose rule for health flexible spending arrangements (FSAs). To make health FSAs more consumer-friendly and provide added flexibility, the updated guidance permits employers to allow plan participants to carry over up to $500 of their unused health FSA account balance remaining at the end of a plan year to the following year. The provision does not apply to dependent care FSAs at this time. In order to take advantage of the new carryover option permitted under the Treasury Department notice, Section 125 cafeteria plans offering a health FSA must be amended to set forth the carryover provision. Plans may be amended effective beginning with plan year 2013. This change will permit the City to begin allowing employees to carry over up to $500 of the unused amounts remaining in their health FSA accounts for expenses in the next year beginning immediately. The City’s FSA administrator WageWorks is prepared to manage the new provision and effect the change in order to allow for the carryover of health FSA funds from the current plan year into 2014. The City's Aflac provider has indicated that it will continue to fund the cost of any fees imposed by WageWorks for the administration of the City health FSA accounts including the carryover, resulting in no additional cost to the City associated with this request.

(consent) SUMMARY: The agreement between the City and MHNet for the provision of EAP and Mental Health/Chemical Dependency services expires on December 31, 2013 and provides for an automatic one-year renewal. The City offers EAP and Mental Health/Chemical Dependency benefits through MHNet to all regular full-time employees, their dependents covered under the City’s medical insurance, all regular part-time employees, and retirees and their dependents covered under the City’s medical insurance only. MHNet has proposed a modification of the current rates to align the premiums more accordingly with the claims being incurred for the respective services. The proposed changes include an increase in the per member/per month cost for EAP services from $1.39 to $1.64 and a corresponding reduction of the same amount in the per member/per month cost for Mental Health/Chemical Dependency services from $6.76 to $6.51. The result is a net zero increase in the overall City cost for the services. This rate modification will in no other way alter the terms of the current agreement between the City and MHNet, nor the services currently being offered.

Mr. Faulkner alleged that the former Fire Chief delayed his promotion to Fire Lieutenant on the basis of age and therefore discriminated against him. Mr. Faulkner filed a charge with the EEOC and sued the City on that basis. While the City denies that any discrimination took place, a decision was made to settle this litigation for the sum of $37,500. This settlement agreement does not construe any admission of wrongful acts by the City and settles any and all claims Mr. Faulkner may have in this regard. Funding for this settlement agreement will be provided by a first quarter budget amendment allocating General Fund reserves in the amount of $37,500 to the Fire Department Operating Budget. The balance in General Fund reserves is approximately $17.9 million, or 15.5% of the 2013/14 General Fund operating budget. Inclusive of the $1.4 million used to fund the current operating budget, a total of $1,839,443 of General Fund reserves has been used to date to fund expenditures in the 2013/14 operating budget.

Executed at ___________________________, Florida, this ______ day of November, 2013. Witness Michael Faulkner Executed at ___________________________, Florida, this ______ day of ___________________, 2013. The City of Clearwater By: Title: Attachment number 1 \nPage 8 of 8 Item # 6 Work Session Council Chambers - City Hall Meeting Date:12/2/2013 SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION: Approve an amendment between American Healthways Services, Inc. (Healthways) and the City of Clearwater (City), allowing the City to be a provider of fitness services and benefits for eligible Medicare Members known as the SilverSneakers Program at the Henry L. McMullen Tennis Complex, 1000 Edenville Avenue, Clearwater, FL and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent) SUMMARY: Healthways has established a network of sponsoring organizations throughout the country to provide fitness services, to benefit Medicare participants represented by their medical providers. In the State of Florida, there are 15 such providers associated with Healthways. Healthways has established a program known as SilverSneakers where by their members can get health and fitness programs at approved provider sites at no cost. The City entered into a contractual agreement with Healthways on March 3, 2011, which designated five City Recreation Centers as Healthways’ SilverSneakers sites. The City’s obligation is to provide facilities for seniors to engage in the various approved SilverSneakers programs and activities. For every visit made to an approved program, which ranges from simply working out in the fitness room or pool to organized exercise classes, the City is reimbursed or subsidized at a rate of $3.00 per day per visit not to exceed $30.00 per month per participant. The reimbursement paid by Healthways is inclusive of any and all taxes that may be required to be paid to any governmental authority. The SilverSneakers program has achieved success since launching at five city recreation sites in June 2011. The partnership has resulted in more than 1,500 new annual members; increased participation; improved the health and quality of life for our senior residents but also provided an infusion of much needed new revenue into the City. This contract amendment adds the McMullen Tennis Complex as the sixth SilverSneakers site among Clearwater Recreation centers.

(consent) SUMMARY: In Fiscal Year 2009/10 due in part to the economic downturn in the economy and reduction of tax funding, the Beach Guard Program was reduced by approximately 33% from 14.5 FTE’s ($684,030) to 9.9 FTE’s ($458,300). Over the past four years there has been no increase in staffing levels and only a modest 1.6% increase in operating budgets; attributed to salary and benefit increases to its current budget for Fiscal Year 2013/14 of $487,730. Tourism to Clearwater and Clearwater Beach has increased significantly during this time. Clearwater Beach has won numerous awards and designations and recently named Best Beach by USA Today. The continued success of Clearwater’s investment in projects like Beach Walk, Pier 60 renovations and Marina District improvements only add to the popularity and volume of people visiting Clearwater Beach. With this influx of people, especially during the peak times of between March 1 and Labor Day, staff is recommending that the Beach Guard Team be increased by 2.1 FTE’s in order to expand the hours of operations to cover the beach from 9:30 am to 6:30 pm. Currently the guards are off the beach at 4:30 pm, which leaves the public beaches unattended even while there are still a lot of beach goers and activities going on at the beach. Extending beach guarding by two hours per day will give residents and visitors to the beach added security and a sense of safety that is not now being provided. The current beach guard program is funded through the Parking Fund. Staff is recommending that these new positions be funded with parking funds as well. For the remainder of this year, the budget impact will be approximately $52,670; the annual budget impact will be approximately $79,000.

(consent) SUMMARY: On August 27, 2013, the Parks and Recreation Department issued Purchase Order BR509161 to Arlau, for stainless steel 316 grade backless benches and stainless steel removable bollards to be used on Beachwalk. Unknown to staff, a POA was needed by the customs broker to receive the goods when they come to port in Jamaica, New York, estimated date of arrival December 5, 2013. Without the POA, the goods could not enter the United States and there would be additional fines, penalties and storage charges on the goods. Therefore, the City Manager approved signing the POA on behalf of the City so that the goods could be received without these additional costs and additional problems with customs. This is a standard issue in the shipping industry. By giving the City Manager or his designee the ability to sign off on these standard POA forms, the City will be better prepared to meet future needs if they should arise.

(consent) SUMMARY: The City has been awarded a matching grant in the amount of $1,000,000 for the renovation and expansion of the Capitol Theatre property.

(REH), to renovate and expand the Capitol Theatre properties located in downtown Clearwater” the public purpose for which these funds were appropriated.

(REH); amending the Capitol Improvement Program by transferring $500,000 of Penny Funds from Fiscal Year 2014/15, Ruth Eckerd Hall, to the Capitol Theatre budget (CIP 315-93623); and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. SUMMARY: On September 20, 2012, the City entered into the CTOA with REH to renovate and operate the Capitol Theatre Facility located at 401, 403 and 409 Cleveland Street for a period of 30 years. The CTOA provided funding of the project in the amount not to exceed $7,112,209. On July 18, 2013, the City Council approved an increase of $500,000 to $7,612,209 based on the anticipated receipt of State funding via the Cultural Facilities Program Grant. In the City of Clearwater’s Capital Improvement Program, there is $500,000 in Fiscal Year 2014/15 CIP budget that was allocated as a contingency for the construction of the Capitol Theatre with the intention of using any remaining funds toward the educational center at Ruth Eckerd Hall. On October 21, 2013, the City received a letter from Mr. Josh Magidson, Chairman, and Mr. Zev Buffman, President/CEO of Ruth Eckerd Hall, Inc. requesting the use of this contingency for the construction of the Capitol Theatre. This $500,000 was dedicated through Penny for Pinellas, and requires a Public Hearing for this change. The public hearing notice was advertised on November 20, 2013. A first quarter budget amendment will transfer the remaining $500,000 budgeted for the Ruth Eckerd Hall Capitol Theatre contingency and the expansion of the learning center to project 315-93623, Capitol Theatre. The project is currently under construction, and is estimated to be completed by December 18, 2013. All other terms and conditions of the original agreement will remain in full force and effect.

(consent) SUMMARY: The City issued RFQ 25-13 in July 2013 for CM at Risk firms for the Countryside Branch Library project. Nine firms responded. The review committee included representatives of the Library, Solid Waste/General Services, Parks and Recreation, Engineering and the Harvard Jolly project architect, as a non-voting member. The selection committee chose four firms for oral presentations including Ajax Building Corporation, Creative Contractors, Inc., Biltmore Construction Co., Inc., and A.D. Morgan Corporation. A portion of the oral presentations addressed specific questions the city sent to the firms in advance. The Review Committee recommends Ajax Building Corporation (Ajax) for the following reasons: · The large number of library projects they have completed (50+), many with Harvard Jolly. · Approximately 95% of their work is municipal. · Ajax included numerous ideas to involve the community during the construction process. They will provide a webcam enabling the public to view real time construction photos linked to the city website. · Ajax was the only firm that pointed out their installed equipment would have Quick Response labels, allowing Building and Maintenance staff to electronically access warranty and operation and maintenance manuals. · Ajax was the only firm that included in their presentation that they link construction photos to the as-builts, enabling Building and Maintenance staff to have record of the interior of walls etc., before the walls are enclosed. Ajax will provide preconstruction services under a Purchase Order including design review and construction cost estimating. Once design approaches final construction documents, staff will present a guaranteed maximum price contract to Council for approval.

These proposals shall be based on approved plans and specifications. Bids shall be received and opened publicly at the location, date and time established in the bid advertisement. iv) Contracts totaling $500,000 or greater shall be treated the same as described under iii above except that the advertisement shall be run for at least 30 days prior to the established bid opening and at least 5 days prior to any scheduled pre-bid conference. v) Individual purchases of materials or rentals or leases of equipment of up to $999.99 each may be made without bids or quotes when reasonably necessary to expedite work on the project; however, the Construction Manager shall not divide or separate a procurement in order to avoid the requirements set forth above. vi) Site utilities may be acquired at market rates from the entity(ies) providing such in the franchise area. b) For each separate construction contract exceeding $35,000, the Construction Manager shall, unless waived by Owner, conduct a pre-bid conference with prospective bidders, the Architect-Engineer and the Owner. In the event questions are raised which require an interpretation of the bidding documents or otherwise indicate a need for clarification or correction of the invitation, the Construction Manager shall transmit these to the Architect- Engineer and upon receiving clarification or correction in writing shall prepare an addendum to the bidding document, and issue same to all of the prospective bidders. 3.7 Quality Control - The Construction Manager shall develop and maintain a program, acceptable to the Owner and Architect-Engineer that assures quality control of the construction. The Construction Manager shall supervise the work of all subcontractors providing instruction to each when their work does not conform to the requirements of the plans and specifications and shall continue to assert influence and control over each subcontractor to ensure that corrections are made in a timely manner so as to not affect the efficient progress of the work. Should disagreement occur between the Construction Manager, the Owner or the Architect-Engineer over acceptability of work and conformance with the requirements of the specifications and plans, the Owner shall be the final judge of performance and acceptability. 3.7 Subcontractor Interfacing - The Construction Manager shall be the single point of interface with all subcontractors for any work done under this Contract. The Construction Manager shall negotiate all change orders, field orders and request for proposals, with all affected subcontractors and shall review the costs of those proposals and advise the Owner and Architect-engineer of their validity and reasonableness, acting in the Owner’s best interest prior to requesting approval of each change order from the Owner. Before any work is begun on any change order, a written authorization from the Owner must be issued. When health and safety are threatened, however, the Construction Manager shall act immediately to remove such threat to health and safety. The Construction Manager shall also carefully review all shop drawings and then forward the same to the Architect-Engineer for review and actions. The Architect-Engineer will transmit them back to the Construction Manager who 6 Attachment number 1 \nPage 22 of 27 Item # 14 will then issue the shop drawings to the affected subcontractor for fabrication or revision. The Construction Manager shall maintain a record to promote expeditious handling. The Construction Manager shall request the Architect-Engineer to make interpretations of the drawings or specifications requested of him by the subcontractors and shall maintain a record to promote timely response. The Construction Manager shall advise the Owner and Architect-Engineer when timely response is not occurring on any of the above. The Construction Manager shall collect, review and submit to the Owner, all project closeout documentation including operation, maintenance and training manuals. ARTICLE 4: MAXIMUM PROJECT COST AND FEES FOR SERVICES 4.1 Guaranteed Maximum Price for Construction a) When the Construction Documents are sufficiently complete to establish the scope of work for the project or any portion thereof, the Construction Manager will establish and submit in writing to the Owner for his approval a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) guaranteeing the maximum price to the Owner, for the construction cost of the project or designated part thereof. Such Guaranteed Maximum Price will be subject to modification for changes in the project as provided in article 4.1(e) below. Actual price paid for the work by the Owner, however, shall be the actual cost of all work subcontracts, supply contracts, direct labor costs, direct supervision costs and direct job costs, plus the Construction Manager’s fees or the GMP, whichever is less when the work is complete. Invoicing shall occur monthly for completed work with 5% retainage withheld until final completion and acceptance of all work covered in the contract documents in accordance to the City’s General Conditions. b) At the time of submission of a Guaranteed Maximum Price, the Construction Manager will verify the time schedule for activities and work which were adopted and used to determine the Construction Manager’s cost of work. In addition to the cost of work, a GMP will include an agreed upon sum as the construction contingency which is included for the purpose of defraying the expenses due to unforeseen circumstances relating to construction. The Construction Manager will be required to furnish documentation evidencing expenditures charged to the contingency prior to the release of funds by the Owner. If bids are received below the applicable line items in the GMP, the surplus will be added to the contingency. c) If bids are received above the applicable line item in the GMP, the deficiency will be taken from the contingency; however, such occurrence shall not be cause to increase the GMP. d) If bids are not received for a portion of the work at or below the applicable line item amount in the GMP, the Construction Manager reserves the right to perform that portion of the work as acknowledged by the Owner or negotiate for its performance for the specified line item lump sum amount or less. e) The increase or decrease in the Guaranteed Maximum Price resulting from a change in the Project shall be determined in one or more of the following ways: 7 Attachment number 1 \nPage 23 of 27 Item # 14 i. By mutual acceptance of a lump sum properly itemized and supported by sufficient substantiating data to permit evaluation by the Architect Engineer and owner; ii. By unit prices stated in the Agreement or subsequently agreed upon; iii. If none of the methods is agreed upon, the Construction Manager, provided it has received a signed written order by the Owner, shall promptly proceed with the work involved. The cost of such work shall then be determined on the basis of the reasonable expenditures and savings of those performing the work attributed to the change. In the event a Change Order is issued under these conditions, however, the Architect-Engineer will establish an estimated cost of the work and the Construction Manager shall not perform any work whose cost exceeds that estimate without prior written approval by the Owner. In such case, the Construction Manager shall keep and present, in such form as the Owner may prescribe, an itemized accounting together with appropriate supporting data of the increase in the Cost of the Project. The amount of decrease in the Guaranteed Maximum Price to be allowed by the Construction Manager to the Owner for any deletion or change which results in a net decrease in cost will be the amount of the actual net decrease; iv. The Architect-Engineer will have authority to order minor changes in the Project not involving an adjustment in the Guaranteed Maximum Price or an extension of the Construction Completion Date and not inconsistent with the intent of the Drawings and Specifications. Such changes shall be effected by written order. Documentation of changes shall be determined by the Architect-Engineer. Changes shall be approved by the Architect-Engineer. 4.2 Construction Manager’s Fee - In consideration of the performance of the contract, the Owner agrees to pay the Construction Manager as compensation for his services, fees as set forth below: 4.3 Preconstruction Phase Fee - shall be based on design costs if applicable, constructability review, value engineering and fee determination of Guaranteed Maximum Price. The fee for this phase in the amount of $ TBD shall be paid at the negotiated price upon receipt of the Guaranteed Maximum Price. a) Construction Phase Fee - Prior to commencement of the Construction Phase, the Owner will direct the Construction Manager in writing to proceed into the Construction Phase. The Construction Manager’s compensation for work or service performed during the Construction Phase shall be a fee of $ TBD . The Construction Phase Fee shall be invoiced and paid in $ TBD months. Payments will be remitted monthly at the cost of $ TBD each and one final monthly payment of $ TBD .The first monthly payment shall become due thirty days following the issuance of the first Construction Authorization and the final monthly payment shall be paid only when construction of the project is completed and occupancy of the project accepted by the Owner. If construction is authorized only for a part of the project, the fee paid shall be proportionate to the amount of work authorized by the Owner. 8 Attachment number 1 \nPage 24 of 27 Item # 14 ARTICLE 5: TERMINATION AND TIME OF THE ESSENCE 5.1 If the Construction Manager is adjudged bankrupt or makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or if a receiver is appointed on account of its insolvency, or if refuses or fails, except in cases for which an extension of time is provided, to supply enough properly skilled workmen or proper materials for the Services, or otherwise be guilty of a substantial violation of any provision of this Agreement as determined by the certificate of the Architect, the Owner may, without prejudice and reserving any other right or remedy the Owner may have, after giving the Construction Manager seven (7) days’ written notice, terminate the employment of the Construction Manager and take possession of the premises and all materials, tools, and appliances thereon and finish the Project in whatever manner the Owner may deem expedient. 5.2 It is mutually agreed between the parties hereby that time is of the essence of this contract, and in the event that the Substantial Completion Date is not achieved within the time stipulated herein, it is then further agreed that the City may deduct from such sums or compensation as may be due to the Construction Manager, the sum of $1,000.00 per day for each day that the work to be performed by the Construction Manager remains incomplete beyond the time limit specified herein, which sum of $ 1,000.00 per day shall only and solely represent damages which the City has sustained by reason of the failure of the Construction Manager to complete the work within the time stipulated, it being further agreed that the sum is not to be construed as a penalty but is only to be construed as liquidated damages for failure of the Construction Manager to complete and perform all work within the time period as specified in this contract. ARTICLE 6: INDEMNIFICATION 6.1The Construction Manager and his or its successors and assigns does hereby agree to assume the defense of any legal action which may be brought against the City as a result of the Construction Manager’s activities arising out of this contract and furthermore, in consideration of the terms, stipulations and conditions as contained herein, agrees to hold the city free and harmless from any and all claims for damages, costs of suits, judgments or decrees resulting from any claims made under this contract against the city or the contractor or the contractor’s sub-contractors, agents, servants or employees resulting from activities by the aforementioned contractor, sub-contractor, agent servants or employees. 6.2 Nothing contained herein shall be construed as a waiver of any immunity from or limitation of liability the City (Owner) may be entitled to under the doctrine of sovereign immunity or section 768.28, Florida Statutes. ARTICLE 7: TITLE TO THE PROJECT 7.1 The title of all work, completed portions of the Project and in the course of construction, and of all materials on account of which payment has been made shall be in the Owner. 9 Attachment number 1 \nPage 25 of 27 Item # 14 ARTICLE 8: ASSIGNMENT 8.1 This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, except that this Agreement may not be assigned by either party without the prior written consent of the other party.

(HDA2013-08004) SUMMARY: The applicant is requesting the continuance in order to prepare changes to the Conceptual Site Plan as directed by Council at its October 16, 2013 meeting. The applicant is not sure when their revised Conceptual Site Plan and Elevations will be ready and is not ready to commit to a date certain for their next Council hearing. Review Approval:1) Office of Management and Budget 2) Legal 3) Clerk 4) Assistant City Manager 5) City Manager 6) Clerk Cover Memo Item # 15 Work Session Council Chambers - City Hall Meeting Date:12/2/2013 SUBJECT / RECOMMENDATION: Authorize additional funding in the amount of $160,000 for representation of the City by Smolker, Bartlett, Schlosser, Loeb and Hinds in the matter of Bair v. City of Clearwater. (consent) SUMMARY: On September 5, City Council approved outside counsel representation for this case and an initial funding in the amount of $40,000. To date, the City has gone to mediation with the Plaintiffs, which resulted in an impasse. The additional funding in the amount of $160,000 is estimated to be sufficient to take the case through trial if necessary. The details of the case are as follows. On or about April 2001, the Plaintiffs submitted a building application to Planning and Development to remodel their property in Island Estates. Because the property is below the 100-year flood elevation and is located in a V flood zone, the Community Development Code requires any substantial improvements to existing structures to comply with the flood damage-resistance provisions, including that the structure be elevated. Substantial Improvement is defined as the reconstruction, rehabilitation, addition or other improvement of a structure during a one-year period, the cost of which equals or exceeds 50 percent of the market value of the structure before the start of the construction of the improvement. The Building Official required the Plaintiffs to submit a non-substantial improvement application and related materials demonstrating that the work was not a substantial improvement. The City initially issued a building permit in July 2011 and Plaintiffs began work in August of that year. The City then placed a Stop Work Order on the property because Building determined that in fact the work constituted a substantial improvement. The Plaintiffs appealed this determination to the Building/Flood Board of Adjustment and Appeals; the Board ruled in favor of the City. The Plaintiffs did not further appeal the Board’s decision to Circuit Court, but instead began the process, which resulted in the filing of this lawsuit. The Plaintiffs’ suit has two counts, one under the Bert J. Harris, Jr. Private Property Rights Protection Act and a second for Equitable Estoppel. The Plaintiffs claim that they have lost market value on their property due to their partial demolition of the structure in alleged reliance on the issuance of the permit and due to their alleged inability to complete the renovations. The City has pleaded a number of defenses to the action. The additional funding of $160,000 is available in the City Attorney's Professional Services budget.
