Mr. Fletcher called the meeting to order at 6:30p.m. at the Long Center.
To provide continuity for research, items are in agenda order although not necessarily discussed in that
order.
ITEM #2 - Approval of Minutes of Parks and Recreation Board Meeting: of March 27. 2006 - Mr. Swanberg
moved to approve the minutes as submitted to members. The motion was duly seconded and carried.
ITEM #3- Tour-East-West Trail- Ms. Leonard was present to discuss the trail. Since her involvement, she has
secured over $lOmillion dollars of funding for the City park trail system. Two years ago the Clearwater East-
West Trail was officially designation a National Recreation Trail.
The Clearwater East-West Trail has been designed to provide a safe, enjoyable and educational off-road trail
connecting Clearwater Beach to Tampa Bay at Safety Harbor. This multiple use trail also serves as the linking
trail between the Pinellas Trail and the Florida Progress Trail. The trails are a vital connection to many area
neighborhoods containing over 20 parks, recreation and educational facilities for the purposes of recreation,
conservation, education, transportation and economic development. The Clearwater East-West Trail is rapidly
becoming both a popular leisure time facility enjoyed by residents and tourists alike, and a valuable commuter
route for many students and employees in the central Clearwater area. The latest completed projects include
Kapok Park and McMullen Booth Pedestrian Bridge.
Mr. Dunbar and Ms. Leonard escorted members on a tour of the Clearwater East-West Trail.
ITEM #4 - Adjournment - Members adjourned at 7:50p.m.
The next meeting will be held May 22 at Long Center.
