Dear Tammy,
I'd like to take a moment to share how happy the Hyatt Regency Clearwater Beach Resort & Spa was to
be a sponsor of the 4th annual Clearwater Beach Uncorked.
As the new General Manager of the Hyatt Regency Clearwater Beach Resort & Spa this was the first
Uncorked event that I personally attended and wasn't sure what to expect. What an excellent event to
bring new visitors to Clearwater Beach! Thanks to Uncorked the Hyatt was sold out weeks in advance of
the event. The event brought 281 room nights exclusively through Uncorked guests and our restaurant
and bars were packed the entire weekend increasing F &B sales substantially. The residual business is also
a great bonus as your sponsors have booked sales meetings with us after they've had the opportunity to
stay on our property.
Our friends at Pier House 60 were also filled with guests of Uncorked, and I understand that Shephards
sold out of rooms in their Uncorked room block. Your attendees did not want the Uncorked party on
Clearwater Beach to end.
I hope that all of the Clearwater Beach hotels choose to participate as hotel partners in future years
because events like this are not only great for marketing Clearwater Beach but they elevate hotel bookings
and bring tourism to the beach.
Our team at the Hyatt Regency Clearwater Beach looks forward to partnership with Clearwater Beach
Uncorked for years to come!
Sincerely,
Dena Roady
General Manager

10.1 Approve two quitclaim deeds to the Florida Department of Transportation, authorize
the appropriate officials to execute same and adopt Resolution 15-09.
In 1983, the City acquired two easements for right-of-way purposes at the
intersection of Court Street and Missouri Avenue. The easements are located
on the northeast and southeast corners of the intersection and contain
approximately 30 and 10 square feet respectively. This intersection falls under
the jurisdiction of the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). FDOT is
planning a resurfacing project for State Road 60 which includes installing new
mast arms at this intersection. FDOT owns the property rights necessary to
manage the intersection for right-of-way purposes so the easements are no
longer needed by the City. The quitclaim deeds will transfer the City’s interest
in the property to FDOT.
Councilmember Hamilton moved to approve two quitclaim deeds to
the Florida Department of Transportation and authorize the
appropriate officials to execute same. The motion was duly

William Wilberforce - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
HE STOPPED "PHYSICAL SLAVERY" IN 1833 WITH A 9 WORD LAW
SLAVERY IN THE BRITISH EMPIRE IS HERE BY ILLEGAL"
WE CAN STOP "ECONOMIC SLAVERY" IN 2015 WITH A 12 WORD LAW
ILLEGAL TO IMPORT GOODS FROM 132 NATIONS
NOT REQUIRING Si DOLLAR HOUR MINIMUM WAGE."
William Wilberforce (24 August 1759 — 29 July 1833) was an English politician, philanthropist, theologiant'1 and a
leader of the movement to abolish the slave trade. A native of Kingston upon Hull, Yorkshire, he began his political
career in 1780, eventually becoming the independent Member of Parliament for Yorkshire (1784 - 1812). In 1785, he
underwent a conversion experience and became an evangelical Christian, which resulted in major changes to his lifestyle
and a lifelong concern for reform. In 1787, he came into contact with Thomas Clarkson and a group of anti - slave -trade
activists, including Granville Sharp, Hannah More and Charles Middleton. They persuaded Wilberforce to take on the
cause of abolition, and he soon became one of the leading English abolitionists. He headed the parliamentary campaign
against the British slave trade for twenty -six years until the passage of the Slave Trade Act of 1807.
Twenty years later, Wilberforce supported the campaign for the complete abolition of slavery, and continued his
involvement after 1826, when he resigned from Parliament because of his failing health. That campaign led to the Slavery
Abolition Act 1833, which abolished slavery in most of the British Empire; Wilberforce died just three days after hearing
that the passage of the Act through Parliament was assured. He was buried in Westminster Abbey, close to his friend
William Pitt.
UNFORTUNATELY IT TOOK A CIVIL WAR TO END "PHYSICAL SLAVERY" IN USA IN 1861. WE CAN
EITHER PASS THE 12 WORD LAW TO STOP POVERTY PEACEFULLY OR WE CAN CONTINUE TO
CAUSE AND SUPPORT "ECONOMIC SLAVERY" OF 3.6 BILLION PEOPLE BY NOT PAYING THEM A
LIVING WAGE. A WORLD WIDE MINIMUM WAGE OF $1 DOLLAR PER HOUR WILL STOP POVERTY
PEACEFULLY AND END MOST WARS! WE TRULY HAVE A CHOICE AND IT IS NOT ROCKET
SCIENCE. IT IS `BASIC RESPECT" FOR ALL PEOPLE WORLD WIDE.
Abraham Lincoln stated "If Slavery is not wrong, nothing is!" 3.6 Billion People are now living in "Economic
Slavery" and only the 12 word law will break the "race to bottom" of lower wages and safety regulations in these 132
nations. JESUS 2'''D COMANDMENT: AS I HAVE LOVED YOU, SO YOU MUST LOVE ONE ANOTHER
It took 30 years for William Wilberforce to get his 9 word law passed Hopefully with help of the internet and Facebook it will only
take 3 years to get this 12 word law passed with your help. Please "POST" to all ofyour FACEBOOK FRIENDS and ask your
Senator and Representative to pass the law now. WE NEED YOUR HELP TO GET THIS LAW PASSED. THANK YOU

2. HONORABLE MAYOR, COUNCIL MEMBERS, CITY STAFF, CITIZENS
THE HANDOUTS CONTAIN A LOT MORE INFORMATION AND A WEB PAGE CALLED
woridpovertyupordown.org I HOPE YOU WILL CHECK IT OUT 2600 hits from 68 countries
4. I AM HERE TODAY TO ASK YOU TO USE YOUR INFLUENCE, CONCERN FOR HUMAN BEINGS AND
POLITICAL CONNECTIONS, TO ATTEND A MEETING WITH REPRESENTATIVE DAVID JOLLY AND
SENATOR BILL NELSON TO DISCUSS A 12 WORD LAW THAT CAN STOP BOTH WORLD POVERTY
AND WORLD DEFLATION.
THE 12 WORD LAW SIMPLY STATES IT IS "ILLEGAL TO IMPORT GOODS FROM 132 NATION
NOT REQUIRING $1 DOLLAR HOUR MINIMUM WAGE."
6. AS THE WORLDS LARGEST IMPORTING NATION ONLY THE USA CAN ESTABLISH THIS LAW ON
THESE 132 NATIONS THAT DO NOT HAVE THE POWER TO RAISE THEIR MINIMUM WAGES OR
SAFETY REGULATION ON THEIR OWN.
7. THE REASON THEY CAN NOT DO THIS UNILATERALLY IS BASED ON A "ECONOMIC FACT OF
LIFE" WHICH STATES MULTI - NATIONAL CORPORATIONS MUST PRODUCE THEIR GOODS AT
LOWEST POSIBLE PRICE OR THEY WILL BE FORCED OUT OF BUSINESS.
8. IF ONE NATION DARES TO RAISE THEIR MINIMUM WAGES THE MNC WILL SIMPLY MOVE THEIR
FACTORIES TO THE NEXT NATION WITH LOWER WAGES AND REGULATIONS. THIS IS CALLED
THE RACE TO THE BOTTOM" AND IS CAUSING POVERTY AND DEFLATION WORLD WIDE.
9. THIS RACE TO THE BOTTOM IS CAUSES MANY TERRIBLE SITUATIONS LIKE IN BANGLEDESH
IN 2013 WHEN A SWEATSHOP FACTORY COLLAPED AND KILLED 1200 WOMEN AND CHILDREN
WHO WERE WORKING FOR JUST 11 CENTS PER HOUR.
10. YES, THIS LAW WILL COST US 25 CENTS MORE FOR A BANGLEDESH SHIRT BUT NOW THERE
WILL BE 3.6 BILLION MORE PEOPLE BUYING OUR GOODS AS THEY ARE MAKING A LIVING WAGE
FOR FIRST TIME & EONOMIC SLAVERY WILL FINALLY WILL BE STOPPED. IT IS THE MORAL AND
RIGHT THING TO DO TO HELP OUR POVERTY NEIGHBORS FROM AROUND THE WORLD.
11. EITHER WE PASS THIS LAW AND SUPPORT THESE NATIONS TO INCREASE THEIR WAGES ALL
AT THE SAME TIME OR THE OTHER HALF OF WORLD'S POPULATION WILL BE PULLED DOWN TO
THEIR POVERTY LEVELS. THIS IS CALLED DEFLATION AND IT IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW BIG
TIME IN USA AND EUROPE
12. IT IS ALSO DEFFINATELY IN OUR OWN BEST FINANCIAL INTEREST TO PASS THE LAW AS IT WILL
GIVE THE WORLD'S ECONOMY A $7 TRILLION DOLLAR SHOT IN THE ARM. THIS WILL CAUSE
WAGES TO INCREASE WORLD WIDE AND IMMEDIATELY STOP DEFLATION. BETTER YET, NO
NEW TAXES, BIG GOVERNMENT AGENCY OR WELFARE SYSTEM IS REQUIRED.
13. I WILL E -MAIL YOU MORE INFORMATION ON WHEN THE MEETING IS SET UP AFTER
ATTENDING OTHER CITY /COUNTY COUNCIL MEETINGS AND INVITE SEVERAL CLERGY LEADERS
TO ALSO ATTEND. THE PLAN IS TO HAVE THIS MEETING HELD ASAP AT ALDERSGATE UNITED
METHODIST CHURCH ON STARKEY ROAD IN SEMINOLE.
14.THIS IS TRULY A NON - PARTISAN AND NON - DENOMINATION WORLD WIDE ISSUE.
15. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT AND I HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL VERY SOON.

Approve the acquisition of real property located at 3198 Gulf-To-Bay Boulevard (SR 60);
approve a not-to-exceed purchase price of $270,000 with total expenditures not to exceed

execute instruments required to affect closing. (consent)
SUMMARY:
The Parks and Recreation Department desires to purchase a privately owned parcel of land
located at 3198 Gulf-to-Bay Boulevard. The property is improved with a commercial structure.
The parcel would be a strategic acquisition for the City’s Parks and Recreation Department
providing support to the trail system.
This parcel is located on the northeast quadrant of the intersection of Gulf-to-Bay Boulevard
and Bayshore Boulevard. This intersection serves as the connector between the Courtney
Campbell Trail and the proposed Bayshore Trail (waiting for permits).
It is anticipated that this parcel will serve as the terminus of a future trail bridge over
Gulf-to-Bay Boulevard fostering a safe crossing for trail users.
Two appraisals were performed for this parcel. The first was performed by James Millspaugh
and Associates, Inc. in July 2014 and estimated the parcel to be valued at $225,000. The
second was performed by Hupp Realty Advisors, Inc. in October 2014 and estimated the
parcel to be valued at $270,000. The appraised value of $270,000 is equal to the purchase
price requested by the owner and supported by staff. Total expenditures not to exceed
$287,000 include the purchase price along with typical closing costs, and demolition of the
existing structure.
The estimated expenses are as follows:
Purchase price $270,000.00
Closing costs $500.00
Demolition $15,000.00
+ 10% contingency $1,500.00
TOTAL $287,000.00
This item supports the City's Strategic Vision to provide quality facilities (Courtney Campbell
Causeway Trail, Bayshore Trail) and provide safe access for persons using the trail systems
in Clearwater.

and tear excepted, and shall maintain the landscaping and grounds in a comparable condition. Seller

in the following paragraph.
[A04-01801 /165202/1] Page 4 of 7
a. As Is With Right of Inspection: Buyer may, at Buyer expense within 14 days following the
effective date hereof ("Inspection Period"), conduct inspections, tests, environmental and any other
investigations of the Property Buyer deems necessary to determine suitability for Buyer's intended use.
Upon Seller’s execution hereof, Seller shall grant reasonable access to the Property to Buyer, its
agents, contractors and assigns for the purposes of conducting the inspections provided, however, that
all such persons enter the Property and conduct the inspections and investigations at their own risk.
Seller will, upon reasonable notice, provide utilities services as may be required for Buyer's inspections
and investigations. Buyer shall not engage in any activity that could result in a mechanics lien being
filed against the Property without Seller's prior written consent. Buyer may terminate this contract by
written notice to Seller prior to expiration of the Inspection Period if the inspections and/or investigations
reveal conditions which are reasonably unsatisfactory to Buyer. In the alternative, at the Buyer’s sole
discretion, if Seller offers to repair or otherwise remedy such conditions to Buyer satisfaction, Buyer
may accept such offer; or Buyer, at its option, may elect to accept a credit at closing of the total
estimated repair costs as determined by a licensed general contractor of Buyer's selection and
expense. If Buyer terminates this contract, and this transaction does not close, Buyer agrees, at Buyer
expense, to repair all damages to the Property resulting from the inspections and investigations and
return the Property to its present condition.
16. WALK-THROUGH INSPECTION
At a time mutually agreeable between the parties, but not later than the day prior to closing, Buyer may
conduct a final "walk-through" inspection of the Property to determine compliance with any Seller
obligations and to insure that all Property is in and on the premises. No new issues may be raised as a
result of the walk-through.

If the Property is damaged by fire or other casualty before closing and cost of restoration does not
exceed 3% of the assessed valuation of the Property so damaged, cost of restoration shall be an
obligation of the Seller and closing shall proceed pursuant to the terms of this contract. If the cost of
restoration exceeds 3% of the assessed valuation of the improvements so damaged, Buyer shall have
the option of either taking the Property "as is", together with any insurance proceeds payable by virtue
of such loss or damage, or of canceling this contract.
18. PROCEEDS OF SALE; CLOSING PROCEDURE
The deed shall be recorded upon clearance of funds. Proceeds of sale shall be held in escrow by
Seller's attorney or by such other mutually acceptable escrow agent for a period of not longer than 5
days from and after closing, during which time evidence of title shall be continued at Buyer's expense to
show title in Buyer, without any encumbrances or change which would render Seller's title
unmarketable from the date of the last title evidence. If Seller's title is rendered unmarketable through
no fault of the Buyer, Buyer shall, within the 5 day period, notify the Seller in writing of the defect and
Seller shall have 30 days from the date of receipt of such notification to cure the defect. If Seller fails to
timely cure the defect, all funds paid by or on behalf of the Buyer shall, upon written demand made by
Buyer and within 5 days after demand, be returned to Buyer and simultaneously with such repayment,
Buyer shall vacate the Property and reconvey it to Seller by special warranty deed. If Buyer fails to
make timely demand for refund, Buyer shall take title "as is", waiving all rights against Seller as to any
intervening defect except as may be available to Buyer by virtue of warranties contained in the deed.
The escrow and closing procedure required by this provision may be waived if title agent insures
adverse matters pursuant to Section 627.7841, F.S. (2014), as amended.

agreement upon giving written notice to Seller. If this transaction is not closed due to any default or
failure on the part of the Buyer, Seller may seek specific performance. If a Broker is owed a brokerage

except as set forth below: (Specify known defects. If none are known, write “NONE”)
___________________
Buyer shall have the number of days granted in Paragraph 15(a) above ("Inspection Period") to
investigate said matters as disclosed by the Seller, and shall notify Seller in writing whether Buyer will
close on this contract notwithstanding said matters, or whether Buyer shall elect to cancel this contract.
If Buyer fails to so notify Seller within said time period, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived any
objection to the disclosed matters and shall have the obligation to close on the contract.
21. RADON GAS NOTIFICATION
In accordance with provisions of Section 404.056(8), Florida Statutes (2014), as amended, Buyer is

Agenda Date: 4/16/2015 Status: Consent AgendaVersion: 1
File Type: Action ItemIn Control: Parks & Recreation
Agenda Number: 7.4
SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve annual blanket purchase order (BPO) and two one-year renewal terms at the City's
option (Invitation To Bid 25-15) with Audio Services Plus Inc (ASP) of Tampa, FL, in the
annual amount of $125,000 for Special Events Services including the purchase of labor,
materials and equipment to perform staging, rigging, lights and sound for various concerts and
special events held throughout the year. (consent)
SUMMARY:
Staff is requesting that a blanket purchase order be awarded to ASP of Tampa, FL for Special
Event Services, to construct staging for all of the various events and concerts held in
Clearwater, especially those held at Coachman Park.
Of the three contractors that submitted bids ASP was the lowest and most responsive to the
bid specifications.
The City has past experience with this vendor and they have performed very well and met all
of staff expectations. In addition they have met all of the safety engineering requirements for
temporary staging which is inspected at every event by a City Engineer of Record.
Also, McCarthy and Associates Engineering has reviewed this contract and confirms that all of
the equipment and staging to be used in this bid meets or exceeds all State safety standards.
The City is not obligated to use any or the entire amount being requested however, in Fiscal
Year 2013/14 approximately $80,000 was used for various events.
This amount is being increased to $125,000 due to additional Centennial events this year as
well as the potential for additional events in the future.
Annual renewals will not exceed $125,000 without appropriate authorization/approval, as
required.
APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT:
Funding for this BPO will come from a variety of operating and capital improvement codes in
the Parks and Recreation Department but primarily the Special Events Code 181-99865.

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve a Special Event Agreement template to be used when partnering with various media
outlets, primarily radio stations, to present special events at Coachman Park; and authorize
the City Manager or his designee to approve future event agreements. (consent)
SUMMARY:
The City has a history of partnering with local radio stations to bring concerts and special
events to Clearwater, most notably at Coachman Park. In the past, when an agreement is
needed between the City and the partner it is negotiated and brought forward as a separate
item to the Council. Each individual agreement is time consuming to negotiate.
Staff is requesting that a standard Special Event Agreement template be approved by the
Council that has been thoroughly vetted by all City departments including Risk Management,
Finance and Legal. This template will allow the special events staff to quickly negotiate
agreements with our partners and they will know exactly what the City will or won’t do in terms
of the event.
This will save staff time and make things run more efficiently as we attempt to bring quality
concerts and special events to Clearwater.
Staff is also requesting that the City Manager or his designee have the authority to enter into
these agreements in the future.
The most recent example of a separate agreement that was approved by Council was the
agreement between Beasley (formerly CBS Radio) and the City for the Wild Splash Concert.

Agenda Number: 7.6
SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve an initial agreement between the City of Clearwater and the Florida Department of
Health (FDOH) for a grant in the amount of $37,500 from May 1, 2015 to September 30, 2015
to help improve the health of Clearwater residents; and authorize the City Manager or his
designee to approve future grant agreements relative to this program. (consent)
SUMMARY:
Pinellas County Health Department (PCDOH) applied for and received a three-year grant from
the Centers for Disease and Control (CDC) for the Partnerships to Improve Community Health
(PICH) program. Additional agreements will be forthcoming from PCDOH for the remaining
two years of the grant upon their receipt of funding from the CDC. Staff is requesting that the
City Manager or his designee approve the future grant agreements.
Since the City of Clearwater is the second largest city in Pinellas and a strong partner with the
PCDOH, Clearwater was selected to be a grant recipient. The first period of the grant is from
May 1, 2015 to September 30, 2015, in the amount of $37,500.
The overall goal of this program is to improve the health of our residents through better
access to physical activity and healthy foods and beverages.
Clearwater’s plan will first be to focus on determining the wellness needs in Clearwater by
conducting a Needs Assessment and Asset Mapping. Once that is created the remaining two
years of the grant will be focused on the implementation of the plan.
Staff is recommending that the majority of the grant be used to hire either an intern or
consultant to conduct the Needs Assessment and Asset Mapping and promote the
implementation of the plan.
If Council decides not to approve the grant application Pinellas County will choose another city
to receive the grant funding.
This grant was brought forward and approved by the Resource Management Committee at
their March 4, 2015 meeting.
The City's Wellness Specialist will oversee the grant and implementation of this program. No
additional operating costs will be incurred by the City due to this grant.
APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT:
A mid-year budget amendment will increase program 181-99869, Health Prevention Program
by $37,500 to account for this grant funding.

Agenda Date: 4/16/2015 Status: Consent AgendaVersion: 1
File Type: Action ItemIn Control: Public Utilities
Agenda Number: 7.10
SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve a contract with Severn Trent Services, of Pittsburgh, PA in the amount of
$124,500.00 (BPO) for the purchase and installation of Bayoxide E33 Granular Ferric Oxide
Media, and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent)
SUMMARY:
The Bayoxide E33 media is primarily used as an absorption system to selectively remove
arsenic while filtering fresh groundwater at Reverse Osmosis Water Treatment Plant 1 (RO1).
The system was placed into service in November 2013 and was specified by the design
engineer, CDM Smith, as a part of the expansion of RO1.
The system consists of 2 pressurized filter vessels that contain a specialized iron-based media
that captures the arsenic and retains it on the surface of the media. The installed media has a
rated life that is based upon flow and arsenic levels. One of the vessels has reached and
exceeded the life expectancy, and is showing signs of performance loss. A preemptive media
change-out is recommended before it reaches the point where treatment failure occurs.
This is a proprietary, sole source product. The service includes all labor and equipment
necessary to removal and disposal of spent media from the pressure vessel and the
installation of 520 cu. Ft. of virgin Bayoxide E33 media.
APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT:
Funds are available in Capital Improvement Program Project 0327-96721, System R and R
Maintenance, to fund this contract.

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve a Contract (Purchase Order) to Communications International of Vero Beach, FL in
the amount of $1,076,108.12 for the Project 25 (P-25) Police terminal upgrade for the
city-wide two-way radio P-25 communication system in accordance with Sec. 2.564(1)(b),
Code of Ordinances - Sole Source; authorize lease purchase under the City's Master Lease
Purchase Agreement, or internal financing via an interfund loan from the Capital Improvement
Fund, whichever is deemed to be in the City's best interest; and authorize the appropriate
officials to execute same. (consent)
SUMMARY:
Currently the City of Clearwater is in the process of upgrading its city wide communications
system to a national P25 standard. This upgrade is laid out in 3 phases, with a multi-year
implementation schedule. The initial phase is comprised of upgrades required by the
Clearwater Police Department. The second phase is to upgrade the remaining city user
equipment. The third phase will complete the migration with the final build-out of the City’s
system infrastructure.
The first part of Phase I, which was the initial Project 25 upgrade of the city-wide two-way
radio EDACS communication system Infrastructure, was approved by Council on December
18, 2014. This portion is part 2 of Phase I, which is in the approved six-year Capital
Improvement Program. The equipment purchase was estimated at $1,000,000 and was
scheduled to be funded with Garage Fund lease purchase revenue in fiscal year 2015/16.
This request is to pull forward that future year funding into the current budget year to complete
the final portion of the Police P25 migration. Electing to complete the first phase this year will
provide the Police Department with several operational benefits, and will result in an estimated
savings of $217,000 to the City of Clearwater.
A mid-year budget amendment will increase capital improvement project 316-94243, Police
Radio P25 Upgrade by $1,076,108.12 to fund this contract.

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve Change Order 5 to Ajax Building Corporation of Oldsmar, Florida, to construct the
Countryside Recreation Center HVAC Upgrades (11-0059-LI), in the amount of $648,918,
approve a time extension of 60 days, amend the budget for the Countryside Library
Renovation project to a new total of $7,351,586, an increase of $248,918 over the $7,102,668
budget to include HVAC upgrades for the Countryside Recreation Center, and authorize the
appropriate officials to execute same. (consent)
SUMMARY:
City Council approved the Construction Manager at Risk contract to Ajax Building to construct
the Countryside Branch Library, chilled water yard and exterior piping in August 2014.
Administrative Change Orders 1 through 4 deducted a total of $1,147,956.86 for owner direct
purchase for the new library, for a new contract total of $4,314,711.14. Change Order 5 adds
$648,918 for a new total of $4,963,629.14.
The original estimate was based on a preliminary design narrative. Once the design
documents were developed, it was discovered that additional structural modifications would be
required to the existing roof and walls of the building to accommodate the more robust
mechanical requirements.
The construction is estimated to last four months, late June 2015 to late October 2015. The
Countryside Library will be complete August 2015.
The Parks and Recreation Department will be responsible for the day-to-day operations, and
the Building and Maintenance Department will be responsible for maintenance of the facility.
APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT:
0315-93528-563600-571-000-0000

FEDERAL ISSUE: National Flood Insurance Program
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: In 1968, Congress
established the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) to address the nation’s flood exposure and
challenges inherent in financing and managing flood risks in the private sector. Private insurance
companies at the time claimed that the flood peril was uninsurable and, therefore, could not be
underwritten in the private insurance market. A three-prong floodplain management and insurance
program was created to (1) identify areas across the nation most at risk of flooding; (2) minimize the
economic impact of flooding events through floodplain management ordinances; and (3) provide flood
insurance to individuals and businesses.
Until 2005, the NFIP was self-supporting as policy premiums and fees covered expenses and claim
payments. Today, the program is in roughly $25 billion in debt due to a number of large storms, the most
recent being Hurricane Sandy.
In mid-2012, Congress passed, and the President signed, a 5-year reauthorization of the NFIP that
attempted to restore the program to firmer financial footing by making a number of changes to the
program that impacted the City’s residents. This is known as Biggert-Waters (BW12).
Then, in early 2014, the Homeowner Flood Insurance Affordability Act (HFIAA), was enacted in an
attempt to address some of the so-called unintended consequences of BW12.
HFIAA Implementation
While it is unclear if Congress will address flood insurance reform in the 114th Congress, FEMA will
continue to spend significant time implementing HFIAA over the next year or more. This includes
creating a Flood Insurance Advocate, allowing for option high-deductible policies for residential
properties, communicating full flood risk determinations to property owners regardless of whether their
premiums reflect such risk, implementing changes to how FEMA handles map revisions, complete a
study of community-based flood insurance options, attempt to secure reinsurance of coverage provided by
the NFIP from private markets, provide refunds to pre-FIRM primary homeowners who overpaid due to
BW12, provide guidelines for property owners describing alternative means of flood mitigation, other
than elevation, that can reduce flood risk and inform property owners about how mitigation can lower
premiums, complete an Affordability Study and a “Draft Affordability Framework,” allow for the
monthly payment of flood insurance premiums, and report to Congress on the number of annual policy
premiums that exceed one percent of the total coverage provided by the policy.
In late 2014, FEMA announced the opening of the Interim Office of the Flood Insurance Advocate and
the appointment of an Interim Flood Insurance Advocate. The Acting Advocate and staff will focus on
assisting the public as they navigate through these new NFIP processes by leveraging FEMA resources to
address specific public inquiries or concerns. They will also develop a long-term regional mapping
outreach and education strategy. FEMA noted that additional funding would be needed in order to fully
install the permanent Office of the Flood Insurance Advocate and expand its role, but until then it would
operate the office with existing resources.
Meanwhile, effective April 1, 2015, the first wave of NFIP rate increases resulting from HFIAA will be
instituted. As noted above, HFIAA called for the NFIP to limit rate increases to no more than 18 percent
for any one policy with exceptions. However, FEMA has interpreted HFIAA to allow for the total
amount charged to the policyholder to increase an average of 19.8 percent for all 5.5 million FEMA
policies and an increase of 37 percent for certain policies.
The most notable exception is that older non-primary residences and older business properties will
continue to see annual increases of up to 25 percent. However, because of a new mandatory $250
surcharge on certain properties, some may see a premium increase of 37 percent as of April 1, 2015.
This new mandatory surcharge and the Federal Policy fee found on every FEMA flood insurance policy
are not considered premiums by FEMA, and thus are not subject to the limitations described in the
HFIAA. FEMA has admitted that as a result, the increase in the total amount charged to a policy may
exceed 18 percent.
Other Flood Insurance Legislation
Several pieces of legislation were introduced in the 113th Congress to address some of the shortcomings
of HFIAA. For example, Rep. David Jolly (R-FL) introduced legislation in March 2014 that would
further amend BW12 by extending the rate relief provided in H.R. 3370 to businesses and “owner-
occupied” second homes. Specifically, H.R. 4313, the Flood Insurance Premium Parity Act of 2014
would: 1) Repeal the requirement that owner-occupied second homes and businesses be automatically
charged actuarially sound rates; 2) Restore the grandfathered rates for these properties; and 3) Apply to
these properties the 18 percent cap on yearly rate increases provided for selected primary homes in H.R.
3370. H.R. 4313 is cosponsored by Florida Reps. Gus Bilirakis (R), Kathy Castor (D), Patrick Murphy
(D), and Lois Frankel (D). Rep. Jolly has reintroduced his bill in the 114th Congress as H.R. 141 with six
Florida members of Congress as original cosponsors.
Meanwhile, Reps. Dennis Ross (R-FL) and Patrick Murphy (D-FL) introduced H.R. 4558, the Flood
Insurance Market Parity and Modernization Act, in May 2014. This bill would clarify that private flood
insurance products would be regulated by individual states instead of the Federal government, which is
perceived to be better for insurers and is expected to create more opportunity for private insurance to
proliferate. The House Financial Services Committee held a hearing on November 19, 2014 to discuss
H.R. 4558, which had five additional cosponsors in the 113th Congress, including Florida Reps. Jolly and
Gus Bilirakis (R). It is likely that this legislation will be reintroduced in the 114th Congress.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support efforts to improve the National Flood Insurance Program for
the benefit of all participants, including H.R. 141 and other positive legislative efforts. Monitor FEMA’s
implementation of the Homeowner Flood Insurance Affordability Act.
FEDERAL ISSUE: Waters of the United States
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: A series of decisions by
the U.S. Supreme Court over the past decade imposed restrictions on the scope of wetland regulation
governed by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) that regulate “dredge and fill” activities in
navigable waters and their adjacent wetlands. Opponents of these restrictions have urged Congress to
redefine waters of the U.S., and apply that definition to all aspects of the CWA.
As legislation along those lines failed to pass previous Congresses, the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) over the past several years developed guidance first,
and now a proposed rule, to redefine waters of the U.S. There is concern that this effort may significantly
expand the definition of WOTUS to include tributaries, ditches, canals, and other water bodies that can
potentially drain into navigable waters, interstate waters, or the territorial seas.
The EPA claims that the proposed rule “does not protect any new types of waters that have not
historically been covered under the Clean Water Act.” However, they also say that “60 percent of stream
miles in the U.S. only flow seasonally or after rain” but that they deserve protection under the CWA and
that “other types of waters” will have “protection… evaluated through a case specific analysis of whether
the connection is or is not significant.”
In 2014, the EPA and ACOE released the proposed rule to define waters of the U.S. subject to Clean
Water Act jurisdiction. Many have concerns that the proposed rule is more than a recitation of water
features subject to regulation under the Clean Water Act. Rather, the rule has been perceived to redefine
WOTUS in new categories of water bodies that are already regulated under the Act as a point source, but
not as a WOTUS. Such definition could trigger added regulation that could increase the cost and
regulatory burden for all levels of government and permitted activities.
The public comment period for the rule closed in late 2014. The EPA received more than 875,000
comments on the proposed rule. In comments submitted jointly by the National Association of Counties,
National League of Cities, U.S. Conference of Mayors, National Association of Regional Councils,
American Public Works Association, National Association of County Engineers, and the National
Association of Flood & Stormwater Management Agencies, these organizations expressed that the rule
must include the following provisions that are priority concerns for local governments:
• Separate municipal storm sewers will continue to be regulated and permitted under Section 402 of
the Clean Water Act, and shall not be considered, either in their entirely or any individual feature
thereof, waters of the U.S.;
• Green infrastructure developed to improve water quality or achieve multiple public benefits shall
be encouraged and given priority consideration that does not impose additional financial and
regulatory burdens of permittees and shall not be considered waters of the U.S.;
• Water delivery, reuse, and reclamation systems and facilities shall not be considered waters of the
U.S.;
• Ditches and other drainage features that protect and ensure the operation of public infrastructure
shall not be considered waters of the U.S.;
• Wastewater treatment systems and all associated infrastructure shall not be considered waters of
the U.S.;
• Any proposal to regulate waters within a floodplain, riparian, or any other general area must
include a specific definition, including the specific boundaries, of the floodplain, riparian, or
other area subject to the rule; and
• The rule must include sufficient clarity and specificity to better inform regulators and permittees
and to minimize the potential for litigation.
Meanwhile, the EPA’s own Local Government Advisory Committee submitted 105 pages of comments,
saying “there is no doubt that the proposed rule…should be modified” and that the EPA should “engage
state, local, and tribal agencies in the rule development process.”
Congress has paid increasing attention to this issue over the past year. In the fall of 2014, the House
passed legislation through a bipartisan vote that would prevent the EPA from implementing the proposed
rule. The White House issued a veto threat in response, saying the legislation “would derail current
efforts to clarify the scope of the CWA, hamstring future regulatory efforts, and create significant
ambiguity regarding existing regulations and guidance.”
Ultimately, there was no provision included in the FY 2015 omnibus that would prevent the EPA from
implementing the proposed WOTUS rule if it is finalized in 2015. However, congressional leadership has
already signaled a desire to work during the 114th Congress to limit the EPA’s authority related to
WOTUS, which will continue to be a point of contention between Congress and the Administration for
the foreseeable future.
POSITION: Monitor activity related to the EPA’s proposed rule on waters of the U.S. Oppose any
aspects of the proposed rule that could lead to unrealistic and over-burdensome regulations that would
negatively affect local governments.
FEDERAL ISSUE: Federal Flood Risk Management Standard
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: In late January 2015, the
Administration issued Executive Order (EO) 13690 to update the Federal Flood Risk Management
Standard (FFRMS) that helps define rules and regulations for Federal activities in a floodplain. This new
FFRMS will require Federal agencies to update their flood-risk reduction strategies for any action that
cannot be avoided in the floodplain. Shortly after issuing the Executive Order (EO) and the new standard,
the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) issued proposed guidelines for individual Federal
agencies to follow when implementing the EO and standard. Public comments on the proposed
implementation guidelines are due April 6.
Current regulations define the floodplain as the area subject to a one percent or greater chance of flooding
in any given year – the 100-year floodplain. FEMA identifies the floodplain on community maps where
Federal flood insurance is required and building restrictions are imposed to minimize flood losses. All
levels of government rely on the maps to inform decisions about emergency response, land use, and
construction in the floodplain.
This new EO and the accompanying FFRMS redefine the floodplain and provide new direction for federal
agencies to avoid or manage actions in the floodplain. Consistent with the President’s Climate Action
Plan, the new EO and FFRMS seek to improve the nation’s preparedness and resilience against flooding.
Incorporating the new FFRMS will ensure that agencies expand management from the current base flood
level (BFE) to a higher vertical elevation and corresponding horizontal floodplain. The FFRMS also
requires review of Federal actions that are outside, but may affect the floodplain.
Federal agencies will select one of three options for establishing the flood elevation and hazard area:
1. Utilizing best-available, actionable data and methods that integrate current and future changes in
flooding based on science,
2. Two or three feet of elevation, depending on the criticality of the building, above the 100-year, or
1%-annual-chance, flood elevation, or
3. 500-year, or 0.2%-annual-chance, flood elevation.
Federal agencies may make exceptions for reasons of national security, emergency response, and when
application of the FFRMS would be demonstrably inapplicable for a Federal facility or structure.
Otherwise Federal facilities and structures must adhere to the National Flood Insurance Program and the
FFRMS.
Federal actions must consider alternatives outside the floodplain. When the floodplain cannot be avoided,
the EO and the FFRMS requires federal agencies to use natural systems, ecosystem processes, and nature-
based approaches when developing alternatives for consideration. All new or rehabilitated construction
(50% or more net increase in value of an existing structure) must be elevated to the new standard. Federal
agencies may consider cumulative improvements over time when calculating increased value.
Potential Concerns with EO 13690 and the FFRMS
• The Executive Order and the FFRMS were developed by a Federal agency working group with
limited, if any, input for state and local governments or stakeholders who share in flood
protection and emergency response. The opportunity for public comment is limited to the
implementation guidelines, essentially instructions to Federal agencies, rather than the standard
itself. Congress expressed its concern with the standard by prohibiting funding until the
Administration solicited and considered input from Governors, mayors, and other stakeholders.
Yet the EO and FFRMS are now final.
• The scope of the EO and FFRMS is significant and will include every action of the federal
government, including grants, loans, loan-guarantees, FHA and VA loans, wastewater permits
and infrastructure, transportation projects, utility licenses and infrastructure, etc.
• While the NFIP itself might not be affected, its coverage could be extended to new areas not
previously required to purchase flood insurance and subject to floodplain building restrictions.
Flood insurance is required in special flood hazard areas, which may be expanded as Federal
agencies, including FEMA, apply one of the four approaches required in the EO and FFRMS for
defining the floodplain.
• No economic analysis of the costs and benefits of this EO and FFRMS have been conducted,
despite the significant potential impacts of every Federal action being made subject to the
FFRMS.
• Different Federal agencies can adopt different floodplains and management requirements that
apply to a community, creating confusion about the land use and building ordinances that must be
adopted to comply with the National Flood Insurance Program.
• While providing flexibility to Federal agencies can be beneficial, it can also create lengthy delays
and legal challenges about the floodplain approach an agency selects. Existing practice sets a
mapping process and flood risk standards that are readily understood by all levels of government
and the public.
• The EO and FFRMS do not allow for “grandfathering” of existing Federal actions, nor those
under development. Questions are being raised about whether constructed projects will have to
be modified to comply with the FFRMS, or if studies and designs must be rescoped.
• The requirement that Federal actions must first consider natural systems, ecosystem processes,
and natural-based approaches can delay or significantly increase the cost of a Federal action for
these often land-intensive alternatives. Those applying for Federal permits would be subject to
the same requirements.
• Federal agencies could be charged with making floodplain-related evaluations for which they
have limited expertise, rather than relying on the expertise of the agencies historically charged
with flood protection and floodplain management.
At least one Senator has already asked the President to grant an extension to the comment period of at
least an additional 90 days. Several others have questioned the Administration’s legal standing in
updating the FFRMS. Meanwhile, Congress last year attempted to stop the completion of the FFRMS
update via the Fiscal Year 2015 omnibus appropriations bill, but that appears to have been ignored by the
Federal agencies.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Monitor the implementation of Executive Order 13690 and the Federal
Flood Risk Management Standard for potential impacts to the City of Clearwater. Monitor Congressional
activity related to the updating of the Federal Flood Risk Management Standard.
FEDERAL ISSUE: Stevenson Creek Estuary Restoration Project
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: Congress provides the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers with standing authorization, known as the Continuing Authorities
Programs (CAP), to respond to a variety of water resource problems without the need to seek specific
congressional authorization or funding for each project. In theory, this decreases the amount of time
required to budget, develop, and approve potential projects for construction.
The CAP Section 206 program authorizes the Corps of Engineers to engage in aquatic ecosystem
restoration and protection projects in partnership with non-Federal government agencies, as long as each
projects is economically justified, environmentally sound, and technically feasible. Prior to passage of
the Water Resources Reform and Development Act (WRRDA) of 2014, law dictated that the maximum
Federal cost for planning, design, and construction of any one project was $5 million. In June 2014, the
President signed WRRDA 2014 into law, which included a provision that increased the per project CAP
Section 206 limit from $5 million to $10 million. However, the Corps released guidance indicating the
authorization increase would only apply to new projects, not those already underway, such as Stevenson
Creek.
The City and the Corps of Engineers have worked on a Section 206 CAP project, the Stevenson Creek
Estuary Restoration, since 1999. This objective of the Stevenson Creek Estuary Project was to dredge
and remove polluted material from Stevenson Creek to improve the health of the waterway which feeds
into Clearwater Harbor. The project was completed in 2014.
The construction phase of the project began in August of 2009, but encountered major delays due to
performance issues with the first and second firms selected to dredge the creek and remove polluted
material. These issues resulted in the termination of these previously awarded contracts and increased
project costs to the point that the Corps’ Federal expenditures reached their authorized $5,000,000 cost
limit.
The original estimated project cost was $7 million, with the City’s share expected to be $2.45 million, or
35 percent of the total cost. The final project costs are roughly $10.5 million, with the City asked to pay
nearly $5.5 million, or about 52 percent of the total cost due to the $5 million cap on Federal expenditures
in place for Section 206 projects at the time of the Project Partnership Agreement execution in 2008.
The City has worked with Congress and the Corps for the past several months to gain an exception to the
WRRDA guidance related to the CAP authorization limit. However, the Corps to date has not provided
the City with any relief from the cost overruns.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support continued Corps participation in the Stevenson Creek Estuary
Restoration Project in the City of Clearwater. Support efforts by the City to gain an exception to the CAP
206 authorization limit.
FEDERAL ISSUE: Clearwater Pass Maintenance Dredging
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: As a Federal navigation
channel, the Army Corps of Engineers is supposed to be 100 percent responsible for the cost of
maintenance dredging of Clearwater Pass. The Pass requires maintenance dredging about every 5 years
due to shoaling, which cuts off an important navigation channel for local commercial fishermen, charter
boats, and other recreational vessels. However, due to budget constraints, this only occurs about every 10
years.
Clearwater Pass was last dredged and fully paid for by the Corps in 2001. The Pass was again dredged in
2012, but the City of Clearwater paid the entire $750,000 cost of the project, as it was uncertain when the
Corps may have funding available to complete the dredging. Eventually, the Corps did reimburse the
City for about a third of the cost of that dredging operation.
The dredging project has a double benefit, as the sand that is removed is then used to renourish North
Clearwater Beach.
To fund dredging projects that are not generally budgeted for by the Administration due to the difficult
competition for funds from the Army Corps of Engineers, Congress has adjusted their funding strategy in
the age of no-earmarks to add additional funding for what Congress terms “Additional Funding for
Ongoing Work.” Among these amounts, Congress in Fiscal Year (FY) 2014 provided $40 million in
additional funding to the Corps for “Small, Remote, or Subsistence Navigation” operations and
maintenance (O&M) activities. In FY 2015, Congress provided a small increase in funding at $42.5
million. This is the funding from which the Clearwater Pass must compete in the future to maintain the
channel.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support adequate annual funding for the Corps of Engineers Operations
& Maintenance account, including additional funding for dredging not identified in the annual
Administration budget. Support additional funding specifically provided for “Small, Remote, or
Subsistence Navigation” dredging activities.
FEDERAL ISSUE: Tax-Exempt Bonds
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: Although municipal
bonds have been tax-exempt for almost 100 years, a number of recent Federal proposals target this
exemption, often as part of debate related to comprehensive tax reform. With local governments facing
severe budget difficulties, any proposal to limit the tax exemption would put more pressure on local
finances by reducing demand for tax-exempt bonds and increase borrowing costs for state and local
governments, ultimately leading to higher taxes or reduced services.
It is estimated that the difference in the rate of earnings the City and other local governments would need
to offer prospective buyers of their taxable bonds would depend on the market, but typically would range
from 1.5 to 2 percent more for those offerings. On $1 million borrowed, this would likely cost $20,000
more in interest per year. Taking this further, if the City were to amortize a $100 million loan over 30
years at taxable bond rates 2 percent higher than if the bonds were tax-exempt, the additional cost to
taxpayers over the 30 years could be roughly $30 million. Should the City make significant investments
in future municipal facilities or infrastructure, a change to the tax exemption on municipal bonds could
add significant costs over the life of the project.
With the onset of the 114th Congress, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) has assumed the chairmanship of the
House Ways and Means Committee. During his tenure as the Chairman of the House Budget Committee
in prior Congresses, Rep. Ryan proposed budgets that affected the tax exemption status of municipal
bonds by either eliminating or limiting the exemption, which would cut the subsidy for municipal bonds.
Should the House attempt comprehensive tax reform during the 114th Congress, most believe Rep.
Ryan’s proposal would put the tax exemption on municipal bonds at risk.
In the Senate, Ron Wyden (D-OR) sponsored legislation with Dan Coats (R-IN) during the 112th
Congress that proposed replacing tax-exempt bonds with taxable bonds and a tax credit. Although
Senator Wyden did not reintroduce the same legislation during the 113th Congress, he continued to
discuss the need for comprehensive tax reform when he became the Chair of the Senate Finance
Committee in 2014. Republicans now control the Senate in the 114th Congress, however, which means
Senator Wyden has become the Ranking Member and Senator Orrin Hatch (R-UT) has assumed the
chairmanship. Like Senator Wyden, Senator Hatch has voiced his support for comprehensive tax reform.
However, his position on the tax exemption for municipal bonds is unclear.
As in previous years, the Administration proposed a 28 percent limit on all itemized deductions for high-
income individuals in its Fiscal Year (FY) 2016 budget. If accepted by Congress, this would apply to all
new and outstanding municipal bonds. According to a study conducted by the National Association of
Counties, if this 28 percent cap had been in place over the past decade, borrowing costs to state and local
governments would have increased by over $173 billion, while a full repeal would cost nearly $500
billion over the same time period. The U.S. Conference of Mayors has come out against this provision, as
well as any proposal that would eliminate the deduction for personal state and local income, property and
sales taxes, on the basis that these deductions have contributed to the stability of reliable and flexible tax
revenues.
In 2013, 140 members of Congress, including 12 members of the Florida delegation, signed letters to
congressional leadership asking that the current tax exemption for municipal bonds remain in place.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Oppose legislation that would threaten the tax exemption on state and
local bonds, including a 28 percent cap on tax-exempt municipal bonds.
FEDERAL ISSUE: Remote Sales-Tax Legislation
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: With some limited
exceptions, retailers only collect sales tax in states where they have brick-and-mortar stores. The burden
then falls to consumers to report to state tax departments any sales taxes they owe for online purchases.
Often, due to complex reporting requirements, consumers do not report those purchases when completing
their tax returns. As a result, local retailers can be at a competitive disadvantage because they must
collect sales taxes while out-of-state retailers, including many large online and catalog retailers, often
offer their customers a discount by collecting no state or local sales taxes.
Therefore, the current sales tax system is perceived as being unfair to brick-and-mortar retailers that
employ local residents, including local stores as well as national chains. This lost revenue is also a drain
on local government resources. In 2013, uncollected sales tax was estimated to have cost local
governments $26.1 billion nationwide. Legislation to correct this inequity has the support of local, state,
and national business groups, such as the National Governors Association, the National Conference of
State Legislators, the Council of State Governments, the National Association of Counties, the U.S.
Chamber of Commerce, the Florida Chamber of Commerce, Associated Industries of Florida, Florida
TaxWatch, Florida Retail Federation, and Amazon.com, among others.
To create a level playing field, Congress introduced the Marketplace Fairness Act in both the House and
Senate in the 113th Congress. The bill would create two systems from which states can choose to
facilitate the process of collecting these taxes. The first is the already-established Streamlined Sales and
Use Tax Agreement, which would simplify state and local sales and use tax laws. Twenty-four states
have signed this agreement. The second alternative would allow for states to meet minimum
requirements for their state tax laws and administration thereof. To protect small, online retailers, this
legislation exempts sellers who make less than $1,000,000 in total remote sales from the requirement to
collect the tax.
In 2013, the Senate passed the Marketplace Fairness Act with bipartisan support, with Senator Nelson
voting for the measure and Senator Rubio against it. In the House, companion legislation was not
considered, although it had 67 cosponsors, including Florida Representatives Deutch, Crenshaw, Ross,
Wilson, and Diaz-Balart.
In the 114th Congress, House Judiciary Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-VA) and Rep. Anna Eshoo (D-CA)
circulated a discussion draft of remote sales tax legislation as an alternative to the Marketplace Fairness
Act. Under the draft, only states that join a multi-state clearinghouse would have the authority to collect
sales tax revenue on out-of-state purchases, and retailers would charge sales tax based on their own state
and local rules. The clearinghouse would then divide the sales tax revenue among member states.
Although passage of remote sales tax legislation remains an uphill battle during the 114th Congress, the
Goodlatte/Eshoo discussion draft could serve as a good starting point for a deal on the issue.
Meanwhile, the rise of Alibaba, the online Chinese retailer that has been compared to a combination of
Amazon, eBay and PayPal, could perhaps sway opinions of those opposed to such legislation. Last year,
Alibaba accounted for $248 billion in online sales and has emerged as a serious competitor to American
online retailers, with none of their revenue remaining in the U.S., nor taxed.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support legislation that requires companies making catalog and internet
sales to collect and remit the associated taxes.
FEDERAL ISSUE: Transient Occupancy Taxes
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: In the 111th Congress,
there were discussions of attempts by senior Senators to insert language into various pieces of legislation
that would have exempted online travel brokers (Expedia, Travelocity, etc.) from remitting the full bed
tax rate collected from consumers to the appropriate local government. For instance, if an online travel
broker were to pay $60 for a room in the City of Clearwater and then sell that room to a consumer for
$100, they would be able to, under the proposal, only remit $6 dollars to the local government instead of
$10 (using a 10 percent bed tax for illustrative purposes).
In late 2009, 17 Florida counties, including Pinellas, filed an action against a number of online travel
companies alleging that the companies have failed to collect and/or pay taxes under the respective tourist
development tax ordinances. During 2012, there were several Florida State Circuit Court cases that ruled
in favor of the online travel brokers. Two cases, including the 17 county case, cited that Florida law is
not clear on the issue, while a Circuit Court Judge ruled more directly in July that the online travel broker
only owes local tourist taxes on the discounted rates they paid for the rooms. In May 2013, the Florida
First District Court of Appeals upheld the circuit court’s ruling while urging the Florida Supreme Court to
make a final ruling on this matter. Finally, in September 2013, the Florida Supreme Court agreed to hear
the case, which is still pending.
Meanwhile, in 2012, the District of Columbia government won a suit where a judge ruled that online
travel firms should repay back taxes on the full retail price of hotel rooms they sold to consumers in the
years after the D.C. City Council passed legislation mandating they do so. In February of 2014, a
conditional settlement was reached in this case with six online travel firms. Although they have a right to
appeal the D.C Superior Court decision, they agreed to pay $60.9 million in back taxes to the D.C.
government. Between 1998 and 2010, the amount owed in the lawsuit was estimated to be over $200
million.
By 2015, local governments had reportedly filed 88 lawsuits against Expedia and others for tax
underpayment. The company won dismissal in 23 cases while 35 remain active. The remainder of the
cases have been settled, put on hold, referred to administrative proceedings, or otherwise resolved. A
2011 estimate by the Center for Budget and Policy Priorities suggests that state and local governments
lose as much as $396 million a year due to such remittance practices by online hotel purveyors.
These examples demonstrate how courts across the country have ruled differently on this issue over the
past few years, which has led online travel purveyors to continue to seek Federal legislation that would
codify their goal of not remitting taxes on the price of the hotel room paid by the consumer. Earlier in
2012, several of these online discount travel brokers (including Expedia, Orbitz, and Priceline) organized
and registered to lobby under a new organization called the “Interactive Travel Services Association,”
whose purpose is to advocate on several issues, including “taxes and fees related to travel.”
In May 2013, Expedia and other online hotel room purveyors attempted to amend the Marketplace
Fairness Act to achieve their transient occupancy tax objectives. Ultimately, this effort was unsuccessful
and the bill was passed out of the Senate without this language.
In 2014, Pinellas County collected a record $35 million in transient occupancy taxes, which are used to
support the tourism industry in our region. In addition, officials with the Clearwater Marine Aquarium
have suggested using a portion of the transient occupancy tax that currently goes toward paying the debt
on Tropicana Field for the proposed Clearwater Marine Aquarium, once it sunsets in 2016. This “stadium
tax” alone generates nearly $5.5 million per year in revenue. The importance of this project to the City of
Clearwater, as well as this level of funding, underscores the significance of this revenue source and the
need to ensure it is not constrained by detrimental legislation.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Oppose legislation that would exempt online travel brokers from paying
taxes on the full room rate paid by the consumer, thereby costing Pinellas County the opportunity to
collect appropriate Transient Occupancy Taxes from visitors to the region.
FEDERAL ISSUE: Transportation Authorization
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: After several years of
short-term authorizations, Congress passed and the President signed the Moving Ahead for Progress in
the 21st Century Act (MAP-21) on July 6, 2012. MAP-21 funded Federal surface transportation
programs at roughly the levels of the previous authorization ($48 billion) through September 30, 2014.
The law also eliminated, consolidated, or changed many programs, transformed nearly all discretionary
transportation grant programs into formula programs, and left much discretion to state Departments of
Transportation on how to allocate funding among the remaining programs.
One of those changes was the removal of dedicated funding for several programs, including Safe Routes
to School, Recreational Trails, and the Transportation Enhancements program. The legislation instead
created a new Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP). Under this consolidated program, funding for
these activities was reduced by approximately $300 million annually from former levels of funding. Fifty
percent of Florida’s $49.9 million annual TAP allocation for Fiscal Years 2014 and 2015 will be sub-
allocated within the state based on population, and census-designated urbanized areas with populations
above 200,000 will be given project selection authority over its portion of these funds. Funding available
to the City of Clearwater will go through the Pinellas County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO).
Prior to the expiration of MAP-21 in September 2014, Congress passed a short-term reauthorization of
Federal highway programs based on MAP-21 levels that is set to expire in May of 2015. Congress will
now need to re-address transportation funding this year amid debates related to sequestration and the debt
ceiling.
In developing MAP-21 and the current authorization, Congress did not address the need for a long-term,
sustainable plan to finance our nation’s transportation infrastructure. Fuel taxes, which currently provide
most of the money for surface transportation, do not provide a solid long-term foundation for generally
desired transportation funding growth, even if Congress were to authorize a modest increase. The choice
then becomes finding new sources of income for an expanded program, or alternately, to settle for a
smaller program that might look very different than the one currently in place. Less Federal funding via a
future transportation reauthorization bill would mean significantly less funding available to FDOT, the
Pinellas County MPO, and ultimately the City of Clearwater, to support both surface transportation and
transit projects and programs.
In January 2015, Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) and Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA) announced plans to
introduce legislation to transfer a portion of repatriated income from foreign subsidiaries of U.S.
corporations into the Highway Trust Fund to help address its insolvency issues. Congress is also
expected to consider a long-term reauthorization of our nation’s surface transportation programs during
the 114th Congress.
Meanwhile, legislation was introduced in the 113th Congress that would have allowed states to raise the
maximum weight limit for trucks on Interstates from 80,000 pounds to 97,000 (H.R. 612). This is nearly
identical to legislation previously introduced that was overwhelmingly opposed by law enforcement, first
responders, local elected officials, and engineers in prior Congresses. There is concern that such
provisions allowing heavier trucks could be included in the next transportation authorization legislation.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Monitor proposed changes to Federal highway and transit programs.
Monitor efforts to enhance Federal transportation revenue streams. Oppose efforts that would allow
heavier trucks on Interstates. Support any and all opportunities to secure funding for the City of
Clearwater’s priorities via this legislation or other means.
FEDERAL ISSUE: Alternative Fuel Tax Incentives
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: An older Transportation
authorization bill, known as SAFETEA-LU, provided a tax incentive for natural gas when used as a motor
vehicle fuel. The $0.50 per gallon equivalent incentive, which is provided to businesses, individuals, and
tax-exempt entities that sell the fuel, essentially serves as a rebate.
In the fall of 2011, the City of Clearwater opened the first public natural gas filling station in the Tampa
Bay area, and takes advantage of this tax incentive with every gallon of gas sold. In 2014, the rebate
provided $80,310 to the City for 160,620 gallons, and is expected to grow significantly over the next
several years.
The $0.50 incentive originally expired at the end of Fiscal Year 2009, and has been extended four times,
most recently as part of a broad “tax extenders” package passed in December 2014. However, Congress
was unable to come to an agreement on a long-term extension and settled for a one-year retroactive patch
to the end of 2014. Unfortunately, these tax provisions have once again expired, needing to be
retroactively renewed again.
The primary hurdle faced by advocates of extending these tax credits is the cost, which is estimated to be
around $50 billion annually. In the 114th Congress, the House has thus far again focused on extending
select tax provisions rather than a blanket extension for all expired tax credits. The Senate, however, has
not indicated an interest in considering these stand-alone bills, preferring to focus on Senate Finance
Committee Chairman Orrin Hatch’s (R-UT) efforts to achieve comprehensive tax reform.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support the extension of a $0.50 per gallon equivalent tax incentive for
natural gas when used as a motor fuel.
FEDERAL ISSUE: Public Safety Programs
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: Federal grant funding for
many Department of Justice (DOJ) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) programs are provided
as block grants with each state receiving a certain amount of funding, generally linked to population.
That funding is then passed through to local jurisdictions to help support police, fire, emergency
management, and homeland security functions of government. The Byrne Justice Assistance Grant (JAG)
is an example of this.
In other instances, funding from federal programs is made available to local governments via competitive
grant solicitations. Specifically, program funds can be used to hire police officers through Community
Oriented Policing Services (COPS) or firefighters through Staffing for Adequate Fire & Emergency
Response Grants (SAFER), and purchase equipment through the Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG).
There is also another category of grants that are distributed to specific recipients based on certain criteria,
such as the Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI), which provides funds to eligible regions to help
communities prepare for, prevent, respond to and recover from potential attacks and other hazards.
The City of Clearwater benefits from both direct and indirect annual allocations from several of these
Federal programs, while other programs offer competitive grant opportunities from which the City has
traditionally sought funds.
After years of steady decreases, the FY 2014 omnibus appropriations bill provided slight funding
increases for the COPS, JAG, AFG, and SAFER programs. The COPS hiring program received $180
million in FY 2014, and the JAG program received $376 million, while both the AFG and SAFER fire-
related grants each received $340 million. UASI received level funding at $600 million.
For FY 2015, the Administration proposed an increase for the COPS hiring program to $274 million,
level funding for the JAG program, and a $5 million reduction in funding to $335 million for both the
AFG and SAFER programs. As in recent previous budgets, the Administration recommended lumping
several DHS grants, including UASI, into one "National Preparedness Grant Program."
In the FY 2015 omnibus appropriations bill, Congress provided level funding for both the COPS and JAG
programs at $180 million and $376 million, respectively. In a separate bill, Congress provided $340
million each for AFG and SAFER, and $600 million for UASI for FY 2015.
In the Administration’s FY 2016 budget, an increase from $180 million to $249.5 million is proposed for
the COPS program, while an increase from $376 million to $388 million is proposed for the JAG
program. Meanwhile, the Administration proposed placing all FEMA state and local grant programs into
one account to be called the "National Preparedness Grant Program” to be funded at $2.2 billion for FY
2016. To date, however, Congress has chosen to fund the SAFER, AFG, and UASI programs
individually, and will likely continue to do so.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support at least level funding from FY 2015 for a wide variety of
Department of Justice and Department of Homeland Security grants, e.g., Community Oriented Policing
Services, Byrne Justice Assistance Grants, Assistance to Firefighters Grants, Staffing for Adequate Fire
and Emergency Response Grants, and the Urban Area Security Initiative. Support any City of
Clearwater applications for these funds.
FEDERAL ISSUE: The Corporation for National and Community Service – AmeriCorps’ State and
National Grant Program
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: President Bill Clinton
signed the National and Community Service Trust Act in 1993. This initiative established the Corporation
for National and Community Service (CNCS) and brought the full range of domestic community service
programs under the umbrella of one central organization. This legislation also created AmeriCorps, a
network of national service programs that provide intensive community service opportunities throughout
the United States to meet critical needs in education, public safety, health, and the environment. Due to
the success of the program, and underscoring its bipartisan support, President George W. Bush signed the
Strengthen AmeriCorps Program Act, which authorized nearly double the number of AmeriCorps
members in all categories.
For the past 20 years, the City of Clearwater’s Police Department has received Federal funding from the
AmeriCorps’ State and National grant program through Florida’s State Service Commission, Volunteer
Florida. The Clearwater Police Department’s program offers a two-year public safety program to local
college students, which provides them the opportunity to work directly with law enforcement officials.
These students are offered shadowing opportunities such as going on ride-alongs with police officers, and
participating in day-to-day activities in the police department. After the two years, if the students have
proven themselves, they have the opportunity to be hired on as police officers. Since the inception of this
program, the Clearwater Police Department has hired 20 police officers in permanent positions and
promoted 4 to supervisor positions.
However, the program has also evolved from solely introducing persons to government service, to a
larger focus on supporting non-profits, disaster preparedness, and education. Additional examples of the
events that the AmeriCorps program coordinates and supports are: Free Dental Clinic Day, Martin Luther
King Jr. Parade, car seat fittings, fire safety, helmet giveaways, Thanksgiving food giveaways, and many
more events and services. Should this program be lost, the costs to support these events would place a
large burden on the local non-profits. The City would subsequently suffer from a reduction in events that
promote safety awareness and support the less fortunate, placing a larger demand on the City’s police
force and government resources.
The aforementioned bipartisan support for CNCS programs, including the AmeriCorps’ State and
National grant program, has waned in Congress during the past few years. In both Fiscal Year (FY) 2012
and 2013, the House of Representatives approved their version of the Labor, Health and Human Services,
and Education Appropriations bill, which included a 74 percent funding reduction for CNCS programs
overall, and eliminated all AmeriCorps grant programs. Ultimately, in FY 2012, the CNCS was funded at
$1.048 billion, with the AmeriCorps’ State and National grant program receiving $344.3 million. In FY
2013, this program saw an $18.1 million reduction in funding to $326 million post-sequestration, but saw
some of its funding restored in the FY 2014 omnibus appropriations bill to $335.4 million. Funding for
FY 2015 remained level at $335.4 million. In its FY 2016 budget request, the Administration also
suggested $335.4 million in funding for the AmeriCorps’ State and National Grant Program.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support continued annual funding for grant programs within the
Corporation for National and Community Service, particularly for the AmeriCorps State and National
grant program.
FEDERAL ISSUE: Department of Housing and Urban Development Formula Programs (CDBG &
HOME)
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: The City of Clearwater
receives direct allocations of funding from two Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
formula programs: the HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) and Community Development Block
Grants (CDBG).
HOME funds are designed to create affordable housing for low-income households and are awarded
annually as formula grants to participating jurisdictions, including the City of Clearwater. HUD
establishes HOME Investment Trust Funds for each grantee, providing a line of credit that the jurisdiction
may draw upon as needed. The program allows local governments to use HOME funds for grants, direct
loans, loan guarantees or other forms of credit enhancement, as well as rental assistance or security
deposits.
CDBG is a flexible grant program that provides communities with Federal funding to address a wide
range of unique community development needs. The CDBG program provides annual grants on a
formula basis to units of local government and states, including the City of Clearwater.
Since Fiscal Year (FY) 2010, nationwide funding for the HOME and CDBG programs has been cut by 48
percent and 25 percent, respectively, with varying changes to individual recipients. In the FY 2014
omnibus appropriations bill the HOME program received a small increase from $948 million to $1
billion, while the CDBG program was provided $3.03 billion, which was $48 million less than the FY
2013 levels. In FY 2014, the City received $299,956 in HOME funding and $726,298 in CDBG funds.
For FY 2015, the Administration proposed in its budget a reduction for both the HOME and CDBG
programs to $950 million and $2.8 billion, respectively. In the end, Congress provided $900 million for
HOME and $3 billion for CDBG in the FY 2015 omnibus, a $100 million and $30 million respective
reduction from FY 2014. This resulted in an FY 2015 HOME allocation of $265,110 and CDBG
allocation of $681,257 to the City of Clearwater.
In its FY 2016 budget, the Administration proposed an increase in HOME funding to $1.06 billion, while
maintaining its proposed level of funding from its FY 2015 budget at $2.8 billion for the CDBG program.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support adequate funding for future fiscal years for both the
Community Development Block Grant and the HOME Investment Partnerships programs because of their
critical role in the City’s overall efforts to support those that are least fortunate.
FEDERAL ISSUE: Environmental Protection Agency’s Brownfields Program
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: The Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) administers a cleanup program to provide financial assistance to state, local,
and tribal governmental entities for certain types of contaminated industrial sites, referred to as
“brownfields.” Sites eligible for this assistance tend to be where the known or suspected presence of
contamination may present an impediment to economic development, but where the risks generally are
not high enough for the site to be addressed under the Superfund program or other related cleanup
authorities. The brownfields program focuses on providing Federal financial assistance for “orphan” sites
at which the potential need for cleanup remains unaddressed.
EPA’s brownfields program awards two different categories of grants: one competitive and one formula-
based. The City of Clearwater is only eligible for the former of the two. Within the competitive grant
program, the EPA offers assessment, cleanup, and revolving loan fund grants. An eligible entity may
apply for up to $200,000 per site. In the near future, Clearwater may have a need to obtain additional
cleanup funding for various sites. Unfortunately, the current limitation of $200,000 of Federal funding
per project is extremely restrictive, as many site cleanups exceed $1 million. To facilitate site
remediation and reuse, the funding maximum should be increased to allow for necessary resources to
remediate orphan brownfield sites.
Clearwater’s Brownfields Area (CBA) covers 1,842 acres and includes over 250 regulatory listed sites in
over 7,000 properties. Over 125 of these sites have reported contamination. These sites range in size
from less than one acre to over 40 acres. The CBA economic development potential has greatly decreased
over the past 30 years. Private disinvestment combined with environmental decline has left an indelible
mark on the area, characterized by business and job loss, impacting the CBA by leaving a legacy of
abandoned lands tainted by former gas stations, dry cleaning facilities, print shops, and other similar uses.
As a result of crime, distress, and economic deterioration, the CBA was designated a U.S. Department of
Justice Operation Weed & Seed site in 1996, and a portion of the area has also been designated a
Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone) by the U.S. Small Business Administration.
The City of Clearwater has implemented one of the most successful brownfields programs in the country,
having completed over 100 assessment projects, but continues to have significant health, welfare, and
environmental issues that need to be addressed. Clearwater has identified more than 125 additional
contaminated sites in the CBA that may require environmental assessment. The City will need Federal
funding for these and previously assessed sites to complete reuse planning and cleanup.
In January of 2013, the City applied for an FY 2014 EPA Brownfields Assessment Grant in the amount of
$400,000 ($200,000 each to assess potential hazardous substances and petroleum or petroleum product
impacted properties within the CBA).
In FY 2013, the Section 104(k) competitive grant program received level funding from FY 2012, at $94
million, before sequestration. In the FY 2014 omnibus appropriations bill, it received $90 million, which
restored some of the cuts due to sequestration. In the FY 2015 omnibus appropriations bill, Congress
reduced funding for the Section 104(k) competitive grant program to $80 million. In its FY 2016 budget
request, the Administration proposed an increase in funding to $110 million.
In the 113th Congress, before he passed away, Senator Frank Lautenberg (NJ) introduced S. 491, the
Brownfields Utilization, Investment, and Local Development (BUILD) Act to reauthorize the brownfields
program through 2015. The bill would maintain the current authorization level of $250 million per year,
increase the $200,000 funding limit per project to $500,000, while giving EPA the discretion to raise the
limit to $650,000 if necessary, and provide for the creation of multipurpose grants, allowing local
governments to obtain up to $950,000 to do site inventory, assessments, planning, or remediation for one
or more brownfields sites. In the House, Rep. Louise Slaughter (D-NY) introduced companion legislation
under the same name. With the passing of Senator Lautenberg, the BUILD Act will be in need of a new
champion to reintroduce it during the 114th Congress.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support continued adequate annual funding for the Environmental
Protection Agency’s brownfields program, including at least $90 million for the Section 104(k)
competitive grant program. Support legislation to reauthorize the Environmental Protection Agency’s
brownfields program. Support any City of Clearwater applications for brownfields funding assistance.
FEDERAL ISSUE: Supportive Housing for the Elderly and for Persons with Disabilities - Department of
Housing and Urban Development’s Section 202 and 811 Programs
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: The Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) Section 202 program helps expand the supply of affordable housing with supportive
services for the elderly by providing interest-free capital advances to private, nonprofit sponsors to
finance the development of housing. The capital advance does not have to be repaid as long as the project
serves very low-income elderly persons for 40 years.
The Section 202 program also provides project rental assistance funds to cover the difference between the
HUD-approved operating cost for the project and the tenants' contribution towards rent. Project rental
assistance contracts are approved initially for three years and are renewable based on the availability of
funds.
The HUD Section 811 program is authorized to provide funding to develop and subsidize rental housing
with an availability of supportive services for very low-income adults with disabilities. Traditionally, the
Section 811 program provided interest-free capital advances and operating subsidies to nonprofit
developers of affordable housing for persons with disabilities, in a similar manner to the Section 202
program. However, in Fiscal Year 2012, Congress chose not to fund these activities, and instead has
moved toward providing funding for rental assistance. These funds go to state housing agencies that have
entered into partnerships with state health and human services and Medicaid agencies, and are distributed
to multifamily housing complexes that provide a range of services for the disabled.
In Pinellas County, the non-profit Boley Centers, Inc. receives HUD Section 202 and 811 funding to
distribute to several housing complexes throughout the County, including the Jerry Howe Transitional
Apartments in Clearwater, which provides housing for disabled veterans.
In the FY 2014 omnibus appropriations bill, the Supportive Housing for the Elderly program experienced
an 8 percent increase to $384 million, while the Supportive Housing for Persons with Disabilities
program suffered a 19 percent decrease to $126 million. For FY 2015, the Administration’s budget
proposed an increase in funding for the Section 202 and 811 programs at $440 million and $160 million,
respectively. Congress, however, appropriated $420 million for Section 202 and $135 for Section 811.
The Administration again requested an increase to these programs in its FY 2016 budget request by
recommending $455 million for Section 202 and $177 million for Section 811.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support continued adequate annual Federal funding for the Department
of Housing and Urban Development’s Supportive Housing for the Elderly program (Section 202) and
Supportive Housing for Persons with Disabilities program (Section 811).
FEDERAL ISSUE: Homeless Assistance Competitive Grants – Continuum of Care Program
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: In 1987, Congress passed
the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act, as a response to the increase in homelessness in the
United States. It originally created several programs within the Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) that focused on combating the root causes of homelessness. The McKinney-Vento
Act has been amended many times, most recently in 2009, when President Obama signed the Homeless
Emergency Assistance and Rapid Transition to Housing (HEARTH) Act, which updated and expanded
the definition of homelessness and made changes to existing programs under McKinney-Vento. Under
the HEARTH Act, three previously separate HUD homeless assistance programs, the Supportive Housing
Program (SHP), Shelter Plus Care program (S+C), and Single Room Occupancy (SRO) program, were
grouped under the single umbrella Continuum of Care (CoC) program.
The CoC program provides competitive grant funding to local governments and non-profits, and requires
communities seeking funds to develop a Continuum of Care system designed to address the critical
problem of homelessness through a coordinated community-based process of identifying needs and
building a system to address them. The approach is predicated on the understanding that homelessness is
not caused merely by a lack of shelter, but involves a variety of underlying, unmet needs, including
physical, economic, and social.
Under the CoC program, the SHP provides assistance to help the homeless transition from their current
state to a more stable living situation. The goals of the program are to provide assistance to help the
homeless achieve residential stability, and foster independence through programs that increase their skill
and/or income levels.
The S+C program provides rental assistance that, when combined with social services, provides
supportive housing for homeless people with disabilities and their families. The program allows for a
variety of housing choices such as group homes or individual units, coupled with a range of supportive
services.
The SRO was created to expand suitable residential opportunities for homeless individuals. This has been
accomplished through compensating owners of eligible SRO residences, for a period of 10 years, for
improvements made to kitchen and bathroom facilities in eligible SRO residences, and providing rental
assistance for the residents that occupy those units.
Under the HEARTH Act, HUD also added 12 new eligible activities for funding under the single CoC
program, which include the following: housing search mediation or outreach to property owners; credit
repair; provision of security or utility deposits; rental assistance for a final month at a location; assistance
with moving costs; and/or other activities that help homeless individuals move immediately into housing
or would benefit individuals who have moved into permanent housing in the last 6 months. Another new
HUD requirement is that established CoC’s rank their projects for funding into two categories: Tier I new
or renewal projects, which are most likely to receive funding, and Tier II new or renewal projects, whose
funding is dependent on the resources still available and the strength of the CoC’s application.
The Homeless Leadership Board (HLB) is the CoC for Pinellas County, and is responsible for the annual
HUD CoC Program Combined Application on behalf of its member agencies.
The CoC competitive grants are funded in the Homeless Assistance Grants account for HUD, and in
Fiscal Year (FY) 2013, the program received $1.93 billion due to an anomaly, or an exception, in the
Continuing Resolution sparing it from deeper sequestration cuts. In FY 2014, Congress funded Homeless
Assistance Grants at $2.105 billion in the omnibus appropriations bill, of which over $3.9 million was
awarded to HLB. The Administration, in its FY 2015 budget request, proposed an increase to $2.4 billion
for these grants. However, Congress ultimately provided $2.135 billion in the FY 2015 omnibus
appropriations bill. For its FY 2016 budget request, the Administration again proposed an increase to
$2.4 billion for CoC grants.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support continued adequate annual funding for Department of Housing
and Urban Development Homeless Assistance Grants, particularly for the Continuum of Care Program.
FEDERAL ISSUE: Economic Development Administration
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: The Economic
Development Administration (EDA) is primarily a granting agency that funds economic development
projects throughout the country. Successful projects usually leverage roughly 200 new jobs and $24
million in private investment for every $1 million of EDA investment.
The City of Clearwater has identified information technology and software as one of its industry clusters
with the highest growth potential. The City has been working to develop a coordinated approach to meet
the needs of pre-venture, start up, and small-to-medium sized business enterprises. Using the resources
and capabilities of local and regional partners, including public, private and non-profit organizations, the
initiative envisions the delivery of programs, services, and facilities to help foster and grow this
promising industry in Clearwater. Should this prove to be a successful endeavor, it may be possible for
the City to work with the EDA to fund a co-location space, and transition the City’s program to a “bricks
and mortar” center that allows all partners the opportunity to meet with clients in a centralized location.
The President’s Deficit Commission, as well as more recent Congressional proposals, have proposed the
elimination of EDA, as its mission is seen as duplicative by some. In June 2012, the Senate failed to pass
the “Economic Development Revitalization Act,” which would have reauthorized the Economic
Development Administration (EDA) through 2015. EDA’s authorization expired in September 2008, but
funding via the appropriations process has kept it functioning without an authorization. In addition to
reauthorizing EDA, the Senate legislation would increase the authorized funding for the program from
$300 to $500 million annually. Despite the failure to pass the legislation, the EDA will continue to
operate through the annual appropriations process if provided sufficient funding by Congress.
The FY 2014 omnibus appropriations bill provided an increase in funding for the EDA from $220.6
million in FY 2013 to $246.5 million. The Administration had proposed a small increase in funding the
EDA in its FY 2015 budget to just over $248 million, but Congress went even further by providing a $3.5
million increase for the EDA to $250 million for FY 2015. In its FY 2016 budget request, the
Administration proposed a further increase in funding to $273 million.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support continued funding of the Economic Development
Administration. Support City of Clearwater grant applications through EDA programs.
FEDERAL ISSUE: Excise Tax on High-Cost Health Insurance Plans
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: The Patient Protection and
Affordable Care Act (PPACA), often referred to simply as the Affordable Care Act (ACA) or
“Obamacare,” was passed by Congress and signed into law in 2010. The primary goal of the ACA was to
increase the quality and affordability of health insurance, as well as lower the uninsured rate by
expanding public and private insurance coverage. The law includes a number of mechanisms, including
individual and employer mandates, insurance exchanges, minimum standards of care, and new taxes/fees
to accomplish these goals and reduce the cost of health care.
One such mechanism is the excise tax on high-cost health insurance plans, often referred to as the
“Cadillac tax.” Under the ACA, a Cadillac health plan is defined as a plan with annual premiums
exceeding $10,200 for individuals or $27,500 for families. Beginning in 2018, a 40 percent excise tax
will be assessed on any dollar amount paid in premiums exceeding the aforementioned values, which,
after 2018, will adjust to inflation annually. For example, a $12,000 individual plan in 2018 would pay
an excise tax of $720 per covered employee (12,000 - 10,200 = 1,800 x 40% = 720). However, the rate of
growth in healthcare costs often outpaces the rate of inflation, meaning employers are likely to pay
significantly more each year. The tax, which is estimated to generate $80 billion over the next ten years,
is an offset to pay for the ACA.
Cadillac plans were targeted for taxation due to the idea that these benefit-rich plans (i.e. low, if any,
deductible, little cost-sharing by patients, wider provider networks, greater available health services, etc.)
often insulate workers from the high cost of their health care, thereby encouraging the overuse of care.
Excessive, and sometimes unnecessary, tests and hospital visits have been shown to raise the cost of U.S.
health care overall. Therefore, the tax was designed to discourage employers from choosing these types
of plans.
The Cadillac tax, however, is often hitting public sector employers and workers the hardest. Those who
work in the public sector have long-understood that strong health-care benefits are often granted in lieu of
higher pay. However, many employers must now choose whether to cut employees’ health plans so they
fall below the Cadillac threshold, pass the tax onto the workers, or pay the tax themselves and make
difficult budget cuts elsewhere. Many large employers, both public and private, have already begun
laying the groundwork to avoid the 40 percent surcharge by passing more costs down to employees.
Originally envisioned as a tool to reduce healthcare costs, the tax in practice looks increasingly like an
increase in out-of-pocket costs for workers.
The excise tax was originally slated to begin in 2013. However, due to strong concerns expressed by
labor groups and others, the ACA was amended by Congress to delay the tax until 2018. Opponents of
the tax hope this delay will allow for greater time to further amend the provision. While no bills related
to the Cadillac tax have been introduced in the 114th Congress thus far, the new congressional leadership
has already shown a willingness to alter controversial portions of the ACA, and the Cadillac tax may be
addressed sometime in the future.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support efforts to repeal the excise tax on high-cost health insurance
plans (a.k.a. the Cadillac tax) within the Affordable Care Act.
FEDERAL ISSUE: Offshore Energy Exploration
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: Active energy drilling
currently occurs in both the western and central Gulf of Mexico. However, nearly the entire eastern Gulf
is protected from drilling until 2022 by the Gulf of Mexico Energy Security Act of 2006 (GOMESA).
State waters in the Gulf of Mexico extend 10.5 miles from shore. The Federal government controls
waters beyond that point.
For many years, the Federal government has developed five-year Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Oil and
Gas Leasing programs to guide energy exploration activities in Federal waters. The most recent plan,
developed for 2012-2017, did not propose to lease any areas in the Atlantic OCS for oil and gas drilling.
However, the Administration’s plan did indicate that it would allow seismic analyses to determine energy
resource potential in areas of the Atlantic OCS from Delaware to parts of Florida (approximately north of
Brevard County).
In 2014, the Department of Interior’s (DOI) Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) finalized a
Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement (PEIS) on seismic air-gun testing for offshore oil and gas
exploration in the Atlantic Ocean, which opens the door for the first new oil and gas surveys in three
decades. Specifically, the plan allows for the deployment of high-volume air-guns in Federal waters to
pinpoint the depth and size of oil and gas deposits. While it is viewed by many to include stringent
regulations to mitigate against the effects these air guns may have on wildlife, some argue that the testing
will still have devastating impacts on the affected areas.
Seismic testing could begin in 2015. Should the analysis of the seismic surveys be completed in time for
potential inclusion in the next DOI OCS Oil and Gas Leasing Program for 2017-2022, some believe that
drilling could take place in areas identified as having resource potential as early as 2020. Senator Nelson
and 10 other members of the Florida delegation sent a letter to President Obama expressing their
disapproval of the decision, citing the effects seismic testing could have on Florida’s wildlife and
fisheries.
Meanwhile, active energy drilling occurs in both the western and central Gulf of Mexico. However,
nearly the entire eastern Gulf is protected from drilling until 2022 by the Gulf of Mexico Energy Security
Act of 2006 (GOMESA). GOMESA does not prevent seismic testing in the eastern Gulf though, and
there is nothing that would prohibit such testing from being included in the next five-year OCS Oil and
Gas Leasing Program, nor prohibit any future Administration from allowing such testing as well.
Finally, in 2014 BOEM began the process of preparing a new five-year OCS Oil and Gas Leasing
Program for 2017-2022. The plan does not schedule any lease sales off the coast of Florida, which should
keep the entire Florida coastline free from energy extraction activities through at least 2022. However,
with the recent political changes in Congress, new technologies creating new resource opportunities, and
a seemingly endless need for fossil fuels, it is still possible that exploration and/or drilling activities could
occur in all three locations after 2022.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Monitor the potential expansion of offshore energy exploration in
Florida’s Federal waters.
FEDERAL ISSUE: Land and Water Conservation Fund
BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: The Land and Water
Conservation Fund (LWCF) Act of 1965 was enacted to help preserve, develop, and assure access to
outdoor recreation facilities for our nation. The law created the Land and Water Conservation Fund in the
U.S. Treasury as a funding source to implement outdoor recreation goals.
The LWCF has been the principal source of monies for land acquisition for outdoor recreation by four
Federal agencies—the National Park Service, Bureau of Land Management, Fish and Wildlife Service,
and Forest Service. The LWCF also funds a matching grant program via the National Park Service to
assist states (and local governments as sub-recipients) in acquiring recreational lands and developing
outdoor recreational facilities. A portion of the appropriation is divided equally among the states, with
the remainder apportioned based on need, as determined by the Secretary of the Interior. The states
award their grant money through a competitive selection process based on statewide recreation plans and
establish their own priorities and criteria. Finally, beginning in Fiscal Year (FY) 1998, LWCF has been
used to fund other federal programs with related purposes.
The LWCF is authorized at $900 million annually. While the fund accrues revenues and collections from
multiple sources, nearly all of the revenues are derived from oil and gas leasing in the Outer Continental
Shelf. Congress determines the level of appropriations each year, and yearly appropriations have
fluctuated widely since the origin of the program.
Of the total revenues that have accrued throughout the history of the program ($33.5 billion), less than
half have been appropriated ($15.8 billion). FY 2001 marked the highest funding ever, with
appropriations exceeding the authorized level by reaching nearly $1 billion. In FY 2002, Congress
provided the most LWCF funding of the past twenty years for the state grant program: $144 million.
However, this has trended downward over the past decade. The FY 2014 and 2015 omnibus
appropriations bills both provided $306 million for land acquisition, which included essentially level
funding from FY 2013 for the formula state conservation grant program at just over $45 million.
However, in FY 2014, Congress also included an additional $3 million for a competitive state
conservation grant program that would focus on projects that would acquire lands and waters for outdoor
recreation purposes, as well as develop new or renovate existing outdoor recreation facilities. Congress
funded this competitive program again in FY 2015 at the same amount. In its FY 2016 budget request,
the Administration recommended $48.1 million for the competitive state grant program.
In addition to yearly funding challenges, the current authorization for the LWCF is set to expire at the end
of 2015. In 2013, former Senator Max Baucus (D-MT) introduced S. 338, the Land and Water
Conservation Authorization and Funding Act, which would do the following: 1) Amend the Land and
Water Conservation Fund Act of 1965 to make permanent the LWCF’s authorization; 2) Make revenue
into the LWCF available for expenditure to carry out the purposes of the Act without further
appropriation; and 3) Require that not less than 1.5 percent of the annual authorized funding amount to be
made available for projects that secure recreational public access to existing federal public land for
hunting, fishing, and other recreational purposes. This bill had 43 cosponsors (39D, 2R, 2I), including
Senator Barbara Boxer.
Meanwhile, in the 114th Congress, Senator Burr and others have tried to pass legislation to simply extend
the authorization of the LWCF, allowing it to continue to collect revenue. However, to date, those efforts
have failed due primarily to concerns over lack of support for the effort in the House.
RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support a $900 million annual appropriation from the Land and Water
Conservation Fund, including at least $100 million for the state grant program. Support legislation
reauthorizing the Land and Water Conservation Fund.

Agenda Date: 4/16/2015 Status: Public HearingVersion: 1
File Type: Planning CaseIn Control: Planning & Development
Agenda Number: 8.2
SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the annexation, initial Future Land Use Map designations of Residential Low (RL)
and Preservation (P) and initial Zoning Atlas designations of Low Medium Density Residential
(LMDR) and Preservation (P) Districts for 2127 Pleasant Parkway, and pass Ordinances
8693-15, 8694-15 and 8695-15 on first reading. (ANX2015-02003)
SUMMARY:
This voluntary annexation petition involves one parcel of land totaling 0.265 acres. The parcel
is occupied by a single-family dwelling and is located on the south side of Pleasant Parkway,
approximately 350 feet south of Bell Cheer Drive. The applicant is requesting annexation in
order to receive solid waste service from the City, and will be connected to City sewer as part
of the Belcher Area Sanitary Sewer Extension Project Area. The property is contiguous to
existing City boundaries along the west and south. It is proposed that the property be
assigned Future Land Use Map designations of Residential Low (RL) and Preservation (P)
and the zoning categories of Low Medium Density Residential (LMDR) and Preservation (P).
The Planning and Development Department determined that the proposed annexation is
consistent with the provisions of Clearwater Community Development Code Section 4-604.E
as follows:
·The property currently receives water service from Pinellas County. Collection of solid
waste will be provided to the property by the City. The applicant has paid the sewer
impact fee in full, and will be connected to the system once it is available. The property
is located within Police District II and service will be administered through the district
headquarters located at 645 Pierce Street. Fire and emergency medical services will
be provided to the property by Station 47 located at 1460 Lakeview Road. The City has
adequate capacity to serve the property with sanitary sewer, solid waste, police, fire
and EMS service. The property will continue to receive water from Pinellas County .
The proposed annexation will not have an adverse effect on public facilities and their
levels of service; and
·The proposed annexation is consistent with and promotes the following objectives and
policy of the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan:
Objective A.6.4 Due to the built-out character of the City of Clearwater,
compact urban development within the urban service area shall be promoted
through application of the Clearwater Community Development Code.
Objective A.7.2 Diversify and expand the City ’s tax base through the
Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 4/16/2015
File Number: ANX2015-02003
annexation of a variety of land uses located within the Clearwater Planning
Area.
Policy A.7.2.3 Continue to process voluntary annexations for single -family
residential properties upon request.
·The proposed Residential Low (RL) Future Land Use Map and Preservation (P)
categories are consistent with the current Countywide Plan designations of the
property. The Residential Low (RL) designation primarily permits residential uses at a
density of 5 units per acre. The Preservation (P) category recognizes the watershed
and drainage features on the property, which is connected to the conservation area
south of the subject property. The proposed zoning districts to be assigned to the
property are the Low Medium Density Residential (LMDR) and Preservation (P)
Districts. The use of the subject property is consistent with the uses allowed in the
Low Medium Density Residential (LMDR) District and the property exceeds the
District’s minimum dimensional requirements. The proposed annexation is therefore
consistent with the Countywide Plan and the City ’s Comprehensive Plan and
Community Development Code; and
The property proposed for annexation is contiguous to existing City boundaries along the west
and south; therefore, the annexation is consistent with Florida Statutes Chapter 171.044.

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the annexation, initial Future Land Use Map designations of Residential Low (RL)
and Preservation (P)/Drainage Feature Overlay and initial Zoning Atlas designations of Low
Medium Density Residential (LMDR) and Preservation (P) Districts for 1701 Owen Drive and
pass Ordinances 8696-15, 8697-15 and 8698-15 on first reading. (ANX2015-02004)
SUMMARY:
This voluntary annexation petition involves one parcel of land totaling 0.228 acres. The parcel
is occupied by a single -family dwelling and is located on the northeast corner of Owen Drive
and SR 590. The applicant is requesting annexation in order to receive solid waste and
sanitary sewer service from the City. The property is contiguous to existing City boundaries
along the south and east. It is proposed that the property be assigned Future Land Use Map
designations of Residential Low (RL) and Preservation (P)/Drainage Feature Overlay and the
zoning categories of Low Medium Density Residential (LMDR) and Preservation (P).
The Planning and Development Department determined that the proposed annexation is
consistent with the provisions of Clearwater Community Development Code Section 4-604.E
as follows:
·The property currently receives water service from Pinellas County. Collection of solid
waste will be provided to the property by the City. The applicant has paid the sewer
impact and assessment fees in full, and has been connected to the sanitary sewer
system. The property is located within Police District III and service will be
administered through the district headquarters located at 2851 McMullen Booth Road .
Fire and emergency medical services will be provided to the property by Station 48
located at 1700 North Belcher Road. The City has adequate capacity to serve the
property with sanitary sewer, solid waste, police, fire and EMS service. The property
will continue to receive water service from Pinellas County. The proposed annexation
will not have an adverse effect on public facilities and their levels of service; and
·The proposed annexation is consistent with and promotes the following objectives and
policy of the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan:
Objective A.6.4 Due to the built-out character of the City of Clearwater,
compact urban development within the urban service area shall be promoted
through application of the Clearwater Community Development Code.
Objective A.7.2 Diversify and expand the City ’s tax base through the
annexation of a variety of land uses located within the Clearwater Planning
Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 4/16/2015
File Number: ANX2015-02004
Area.
Policy A.7.2.3 Continue to process voluntary annexations for single -family
residential properties upon request.
·The proposed Residential Low (RL), Preservation (P), and Drainage Feature Overlay
Future Land Use Map categories are consistent with the current Countywide Plan
designations of the property. The Residential Low (RL) designation primarily permits
residential uses at a density of 5 units per acre. The Preservation (P) and Drainage
Feature overlay categories recognize the watershed and drainage features on the
property. The proposed zoning districts to be assigned to the property are the Low
Medium Density Residential (LMDR) and Preservation (P) Districts. The use of the
subject property is consistent with the uses allowed in the Low Medium Density
Residential (LMDR) District and the property exceeds the District ’s minimum
dimensional requirements. The proposed annexation is therefore consistent with the
Countywide Plan and the City’s Comprehensive Plan and Community Development
Code; and
·The property proposed for annexation is contiguous to existing City boundaries along
the south and east; therefore, the annexation is consistent with Florida Statutes
Chapter 171.044.

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the annexation, initial Future Land Use Map designation of Residential Urban
(RU) and initial Zoning Atlas designation of Low Medium Density Residential (LMDR)
District for 1268 and 1276 Sedeeva Circle North, 1226 Aloha Lane, 2063 North Betty
Lane, and 1233 and 1271 Palm Street; and pass Ordinances 8699-15, 8700-15 and
8701-15 on first reading. (ANX2015-02005)
SUMMARY:
This voluntary annexation petition involves six parcels of land totaling 0.887 acres. All
parcels are occupied by single -family dwellings. The six lots are located south of
Union Street, east of Douglas Avenue, north of Sunset Point Road (SR 576) and west
of Kings Highway. The applicants are requesting annexation in order to receive solid
waste service from the City, and will connect to city sewer as part of the City ’s
Idlewild/The Mall Septic-to-Sewer Project. The properties are contiguous to existing
city boundaries along at least one property boundary. It is proposed that the properties
be assigned a Future Land Use Map designation of Residential Urban (RU) and a
zoning category of Low Medium Density Residential (LMDR).
The Planning and Development Department determined that the proposed
annexations are consistent with the provisions of Clearwater Community Development
Code Section 4-604.E as follows:
·The properties currently receive water service from the City. Collection of solid
waste will be provided to the properties by the City. Four of the applicants have
paid the required sewer impact fee in full and are currently awaiting connection
to the City sewer system. The other two have not made any payments but they
are aware that the impact fee must be paid prior to connection and of the
financial incentives available. The properties are located within Police District II
and service will be administered through the district headquarters located at
645 Pierce Street. Fire and emergency medical services will be provided to
these properties by Station 51 located at 1720 Overbrook Avenue. The City has
adequate capacity to serve these properties with sanitary sewer, solid waste,
police, fire and EMS service. The proposed annexations will not have an
adverse effect on public facilities and their levels of service; and
·The proposed annexations are consistent with and promote the following
Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 4/16/2015
File Number: ANX2015-02005
objectives and policy of the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan:
Objective A.6.4 Due to the built-out character of the City of Clearwater,
compact urban development within the urban service area shall be
promoted through application of the Clearwater Community
Development Code.
Objective A.7.2 Diversify and expand the City ’s tax base through the
annexation of a variety of land uses located within the Clearwater
Planning Area.
Policy A.7.2.3 Continue to process voluntary annexations for
single-family residential properties upon request.
·The proposed Residential Urban (RU) Future Land Use Map category is
consistent with the current Countywide Plan designation of these properties .
This designation primarily permits residential uses at a density of 7.5 units per
acre. The proposed zoning district to be assigned to the properties is the Low
Medium Density Residential (LMDR) District. The use of the subject properties
is consistent with the uses allowed in the District and the properties exceed the
District’s minimum dimensional requirements. The proposed annexations are
therefore consistent with the Countywide Plan and the City ’s Comprehensive
Plan and Community Development Code; and
·The properties proposed for annexation are contiguous to existing City limits
along at least one property boundary; therefore, the annexation is consistent
with Florida Statutes Chapter 171.044.

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the City of Clearwater’s State Housing Initiatives Partnership (SHIP) Program Local
Housing Assistance Plan covering Fiscal Years 2015-2018, authorize the appropriate officials
to execute same, and adopt Resolution 15-05.
SUMMARY:
Florida statute 420.9079 requires counties and cities receiving State Housing Initiatives
Partnership (SHIP) Program funds to develop a 3-year Local Housing Assistance Plan (LHAP)
outlining strategies for how the funds will be utilized.
The City receives its allocation from the State of Florida through Florida Housing Finance
Corporation (FHFC). For fiscal year 2014-2015, the City received $499,545 in SHIP funds.
The City expects to receive $128,960 in program income. The City expends SHIP funds per
the strategies outlined in the LHAP. Our current LHAP covers state fiscal years 2012-2015.
This new LHAP will cover state fiscal years 2015-2018. The strategies outlined in the new
LHAP are a continuation of our current LHAP. All changes made within the 2015-2018 LHAP
will be retroactive to the 2012-2015 LHAP to be able to use prior year funds if available. The
strategies Include:
·Acquisition of Existing Homes with Rehabilitation: This program provides funds to
community-based non-profits to acquire rehabilitate and resell single- family housing
units. The community land trusts principles may be utilized.
·Down Payment and Closing Costs Assistance With or Without Rehabilitation: The City
will use SHIP funds to provide down payment and closing costs assistance to eligible
homebuyers purchasing new or existing homes.
·Owner-occupied Rehabilitation: The City will provide funds for the rehabilitation of
owner-occupied single-family residences.
·Multi-Family Housing: The City will provide SHIP funds to support the acquisition,
rehabilitation and new construction of rental housing.
·New Construction Program: This program provides funds to eligible developers and
sub-recipients for the development of new housing units.
·Disaster Mitigation: In the case of natural or man-made disasters, this strategy will
utilize SHIP funding for emergency or interim repairs.
Per Florida Statute, the City Council is being asked to adopt by resolution the LHAP for state
fiscal years 2015-2018. The LHAP is due to the State on May 2, 2015.

states:
“A county or an eligible municipality may not exceed the 5 percent limitation on

necessary costs of administering the local housing assistance plan.”
Section 420.9075 Florida Statute and Chapter 67-37, Florida Administrative Code,
further states:
“The cost of administering the program may not exceed 10 percent of the local housing
distribution plus 5 percent of program income deposited into the trust fund, except that small

f. Recipient Selection Criteria:
Assistance is provided on a first-come, first-qualified, first-served basis while funds

the housing pool underwriting guidelines, policies and procedures. Should funds not
be available at any time, a City created “Waiting List” will be utilized and eligible
clients will be assisted when funds are available.
To qualify for assistance, an eligible participant must meet the following
requirements:
• The applicant is not required to be a First-Time Homebuyer to qualify for
assistance, but they cannot own a property at the time of closing. In addition,
Households that have been assisted with City funds within the past five (5) years
are ineligible to receive funding again through any of the Housing Division’s
Programs, unless there is some form of “hardship” as defined below. Hardship
determination will be determined and approved on a case-by-case basis by the
Director of the Department. Examples of hardship: Divorce, Permanent layoff,
physical or mental disability, fire, flood or natural disaster, death of a family

strategy.
h. Additional Information:
Other state, federal, county, private and homeowners contributions may be leveraged

B.
Strategy Name- ACQUISITION OF EXISTING HOMES WITH REHABILITATION 1
a. Summary of the Strategy:
The City of Clearwater through eligible developers and sub-recipients may use SHIP
funds to acquire, rehabilitate and resell single-family housing units. The costs may
include acquisition, rehabilitation (to include innovative design and green principles)
and other costs associated with the resale of the single-family unit.
The City may use SHIP funds as a match for the HOME program to loan funds to
eligible developers and sub-recipients for the acquisition and rehabilitation of
existing housing units. Assistance will be repaid when the unit is sold to an eligible
buyer.
Under this strategy, Community Land Trusts principles may be utilized. The
community land trusts become the stewards of land and maintain it permanently
beginning with a ninety-nine year, renewable ground lease. The homebuyers only
own their home and sign a long-term lease on the land their home sits on. This
ensures the affordability of the home because the homebuyer only obtains a
mortgage on the structure.
The City of Clearwater through its housing programs and through its sub-recipients
may use SHIP funds to provide down payment and closing costs assistance to
eligible very-low to moderate-income homebuyers of rehabilitated homes. To
qualify for assistance, applicants must be able to obtain a first mortgage from a
licensed lending institution. This first mortgage cannot exceed a term of 30 years
11

with a fixed-rate. The Buyer must contribute a minimum of two percent (2%) of the
purchase price of the home or a combination of borrower’s sweat equity and
contribution. This must be the Buyer’s own funds and cannot be from a gift or from
costs paid by the Seller. All Buyers must have completed at least eight (8) hours of
homebuyer education through a HUD-approved housing counseling agency.

SUMMARY:
Tax deeds were recently issued to Pinellas County for properties located at 1408 Monroe

issued when three years have passed from the day a parcel of land was offered for public sale
and placed on the list of “lands available for taxes” without having been purchased.
Florida Statutes require that land acquired by any county of the state for delinquent taxes
which have not been previously sold, acquired for infill housing, or dedicated by the board of
county commissioners, and which are located within the boundaries of an incorporated
municipality of the county shall be conveyed to the municipality in which the land is located.
Such lands conveyed to the municipality shall be freely alienable to the municipality without
regard to third parties. Liens of record held by the county on such parcels conveyed to a
municipality shall not survive the conveyance of the property to the municipality.
