Greenwood and 804 Pennsylvania Avenue Brownfields Coordinator Miles Ballogg presented a brief overview of projects that resulted in a “no further assessment needed” for properties at 1108 North Greenwood mba1000 1 10/23/00 Avenue and 804 Pennsylvania Avenue. He said at the North Greenwood site, soil excavations and monitoring were done due to petroleum contamination concerns. Contaminates at the site were removed and the site is now below required regulatory levels. The first Brownfield rehabilitation agreement was received for this site. Mr. Ballogg said the site at 804 Pennsylvania Avenue was a mini junkyard with a school bus, 13 drums of waste materials, etc. The site contained petroleum and arsenic contamination and has been cleaned up to residential use standards. It will be developed by CNHS (Clearwater Neighborhood Housing Services) with from one to three infill homes. Detailed reports regarding both properties have been distributed to Board members. ITEM 7 – Staff Reports a. Environmental Justice Strategy – Review and Status Report Mr. Ballogg said on September 7, 2000, the Commission approved the EJS (Environmental Justice Strategy). Copies have been distributed to Board members. He said the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) defines environmental justice as the fair treatment for people of all races, cultures, and incomes, regarding the development of environmental laws, regulations, and policies. The City’s EJS was developed in response to residents’ concerns. Partners of EJS include the community, the EPA, USF (University of South Florida), FAMU (Florida A&M University), ICMA (InterCounty Management Association), and City staff. Meetings are held within the community and surveys distributed to obtain input and distribute information regarding the EJS. The EPA provides funding for various projects. USF and FAMU help facilitate the plan. The ICMA administers the funding. City staff coordinates the entire process. EJS action items include: 1) enhancing the awareness of Brownfields by explaining Brownfields in layman’s terms and development and distribution of Brownfields brochure and newsletter; 2) improve access to information using GIS system on Internet, web site with projects, and newsletter; 3) redevelopment focus on jobs, incubators, grants, and other successes; and 4) projects to create a healthy and safe environment such as Stevenson Creek, liaisons with the Health Department, and addressing health risks. Mr. Ballogg said the next steps involve implementation of the EJS through disbursement of information, development of the website and newsletter, engaging the community early in the process, focusing on redevelopment, communicating health risks in the Brownfields area, and revisiting priorities. He said staff is working on a Spanish language version of the EJS and hopes to engage the Hispanic population with the assistance of local area organizations. Mr. Ballogg plans to attend the North Greenwood Neighborhood Coalition of Organizations the second week in November. He will confirm the date and time and extend an invitation to Board members. Mr. Ballogg said staff will consider the possibility of inviting the development community to EJS community meetings. In response to a question, Mr. Ballogg said $2 million in federal appropriations to clean up Stevenson Creek is pending in the Energy and Water Appropriations Act. He said the President vetoed the bill the first time it was presented. However, the bill recently passed the House with a two-thirds majority vote and will be sent to the Senate. Once approved in the Senate, it will go back to the President. According to City lobbyists, it appears the bill will pass this time. b. State agreement #SP589 for the Assessment and Remediation of Commercial, Orphaned, and Abandoned Sites mba1000 2 10/23/00 Mr. Ballogg said the 2000/01 Florida Appropriations Act provided for $500,000 for the assessment and remediation of various commercial, orphaned and abandoned sites in the Clearwater Brownfields area. The (FDEP) Florida Department of Environmental Protection is the administrator of these funds and has provided the subject agreement for execution. The funding will be used to provide Phase I and II environmental assessments, site preparation, removal of pollutant storage tanks, performance of initial remedial actions, preparation of the assessment reports, remedial activities, and other activities required to remove environmental impediments from redevelopment projects. The primary focus of the funding is to transform market-ready commercial, orphaned and abandoned environmentally impaired sites within the CBA (Clearwater Brownfields Area) into productive economic development and/or community development projects. The remediation of these sites will augment activities specified in existing State and EPA Brownfields Work Plans and will provide redevelopment and remedial funding for sites in the CRA (Community Redevelopment Agency) and the North Greenwood and South Clearwater communities within the CBA. The agreement between the City and the FDEP will be brought before the City Commission at its November 2, 2000, meeting. c. North Greenwood Economic Redevelopment Strategy – Economic Development Administration/CDBG (Community Development Block Grant) Funding Mr. Ballogg said a U.S. Economic Development Administration economic development strategy grant will provide for a market study to determine the type of development feasible in the northern portion of the Brownfields area from Drew Street to Sunset Point Road, and Alternate 19 on the west to Betty Lane. The plan also will focus on potential development of the Jack Russell Stadium as the Phillies will vacate the property within the three years. Local businesses will be contacted to determine how the City can assist them in expanding their businesses in that area. d. Status of Current Projects – Mediterranean Village Townhouse Project, EEI/Mod Tech. Mr. Ballogg said the Commission approved the Mediterranean Village Townhouse project some time ago using Brownfields funds to demolish structures on the former Dimmitt property and prepare it for a 100-unit townhouse project. The majority of the work has been completed. Some excavation of contaminated soil and additional assessment is needed. EEI/Mod Tech., a circuit board and assembly company, plans to hire 50% of their employees from the two census tracts in the HUB Zone. Mr. Ballogg said the HUB Zone has been effective in encouraging employment in the local area. e. Upcoming Community events and Meetings – October 25 & 26 – The Community Environmental Health Advisory Board at the Greenwood Community Health Resource Center; November 4 & 11 – Community Landscaping Project at the Greenwood Community Health Resource Center Mr. Ballogg said that Member Carson is involved in the Community Environmental Health Advisory Board which is scheduled to meet at 1:00 p.m. on mba1000 3 10/23/00 October 25 and continue on October 26, 2000, at 8:30 a.m., at the Greenwood Community Health Resource Center.

Mr. Ballogg said the North Greenwood Community Resource Health Center Landscaping Project originally planned for October 7, 2000, was rescheduled to November 4 and November 11, 2000.
