The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. 6.9 Approve a funding agreement between the City of Clearwater and the Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority (PSTA) to provide enhanced Jolley Trolley service during the Spring Break period of February 24 through April 30, 2017, with the City contributing a lump sum not to exceed $50,000, and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. In order to provide additional alternatives for traveling to Clearwater Beach during the 2017 Spring Break season, the City, PSTA and the Clearwater Regional Chamber of Commerce propose utilizing the Coachman Park parking lots as Park and Ride lot for the a 66-day period commencing February 24, 2017 through April 30, 2017. Users would have the option of taking the Clearwater Ferry Taxi Service or the Jolley Trolley to and from the beach, instead of driving. PSTA currently has an agreement with the Jolley Trolley to operate the Clearwater Beach Route, and intends to engage with the Jolley Trolley for this expanded service. The proposed agreement sets forth the City’s commitment Page 5 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 2, 2017 to contribute a lump sum not to exceed $50,000 towards PSTA’s enhanced financial obligations under PSTA’s agreement with the Jolley Trolley to provide the Clearwater Beach Route during the Spring Break season. APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: A first quarter budget amendment will increase cost code 435-01333-581000, Payment to Agencies, by $50,000 to fund this contract. This increase will be funded with available Parking Fund operating revenues. USE OF RESERVE FUNDS: N/A In response to questions, Deputy City Manager Jill Silverboard said the City's contract for trolley services is with the PSTA, but it does not preclude the efforts staff is making to ensure the Park and Ride program for Spring Break includes the ferry service. Public Communications Director Joelle Castelli has met with PSTA, Clearwater Ferry and the Chamber of Commerce regarding the marketing piece, which will be comprehensive and support any transit alternative and available parking during Spring Break. The agreement before Council is to pay for 1/2 of the incremental cost for adding in a trolley and additional stops during Spring Break to hopefully move the people who chose to park Downtown to the beach. The fare is being extended by PSTA and not part of this agenda item. Ms.Silverboard said PSTA is providing the fare piece from within their resources. Councilmember Cundiff moved to approve a funding agreement between the City of Clearwater and the Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority (PSTA) to provide enhanced Jolley Trolley service during the Spring Break period of February 24 through April 30, 2017, with the City contributing a lump sum not to exceed $50,000, and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. Public Hearings - Not before 6:00 PM 7.

City Manager Reports 8.1 Accept Imagine Clearwater A Community Vision for the Downtown Clearwater Page 9 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 2, 2017 Waterfront. The creation of a master plan for the Downtown waterfront/bluff area was identified as a priority project by the Urban Land Institute (ULI) Advisory Services Panel during their study of Downtown Clearwater. In April 2016, City Council awarded a contract to HR&A Advisors, Inc. to prepare such plan. Imagine Clearwater was a six month planning process focused on developing strategies to: • better connect the waterfront with Downtown; • draw residents and visitors to the waterfront; and • catalyze greater activity and investment Downtown. Due to the importance of the Downtown waterfront to the residents of Clearwater, an extensive public engagement process was employed that involved stakeholder interviews, stakeholder coalition meetings, seven community workshops, a project website, and Facebook page. Residents from numerous Clearwater neighborhoods participated in this process and together developed a vision and guiding principles for the project. They also provided feedback and guidance as the plan evolved. The Plan is centered on the implementation of four key strategies. • The waterfront must be anchored by a dynamic new open space. • Coachman Park needs an active edge. • An improved Osceola Ave. should complement Cleveland Street. • Access to the site should incorporate all modes of transportation. Imagine Clearwater envisions an enlarged and redesigned park that includes five distinct areas - the Civic Gateway, Bluff Walk, the Green, Coachman Garden, and the Estuary. These areas provide a variety of spatial experiences with opportunities for active and passive use. This variety, along with additional programming, is intended to accommodate people of all ages and interests, which will help draw people to the park. In addition to creating a unique and exciting waterfront, a central element of Imagine Clearwater is to activate the bluff. Framing the park with active uses, such as residential, hotel, dining and cultural uses will increase activity and safety within the park and attract people to the area. An active bluff will also better connect the waterfront with Downtown and leverage city investments, and create physical connections to attract people from Downtown to the waterfront and vice versa. Improved connectivity and access to the waterfront through a variety of modes is also central to the success of the Downtown waterfront/bluff area, therefore, Imagine Clearwater also includes a multi-modal strategy that includes a variety of pedestrian routes, shared bicycles lanes, a Jolley Trolley route, the Page 10 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 2, 2017 Clearwater Ferry and parking dispersed throughout the park. Imagine Clearwater includes an implementation strategy which sets forth phasing, governance, funding, and key next steps. Due to the size and complexity of the project, the improvements are proposed to be implemented in two phases over a 10 year period. Due to the elevated level of programming envisioned for the park, the Plan also recommends the formation of a public-private partnership to share the responsibilities of programming, maintenance, capital projects and even advocacy for the plan vision and passage of the referendum. In response to the presentation of several options for an aerial transit system that would link Downtown Clearwater to Clearwater Beach, City Council authorized the expansion of the Imagine Clearwater scope to evaluate possible downtown terminus locations. After an initial period of review, and further assessment of the direction of the master plan and other city actions, staff directed that the consultant discontinue further analysis. The reasons include but are not limited to the following. First, at one point it was determined that the park master plan would not accommodate infrastructure for a transit component in its final draft recommendation. Secondly, the City initiated an agreement for a coordinated approach with PSTA for conceptualized design for a bus transfer station and facility on property currently owned by the City. Lastly, limited analysis and other supporting documentation that could be provided by specific transit alternatives limited the level of detailed review that would be able to provide substantive and meaningful direction at this time. This is not to imply or suggest in any way that additional consideration should not be given to increasing the number of transit options to provide improved service from the mainland to Clearwater Beach. Rather, it is staff’s belief that a more deliberate and comprehensive approach would better advance the level of serious discussion needed to determine that next appropriate steps in transportation planning options. A more timely engagement of the City’s transportation planner, traffic operations, and coordination with PSTA and Forward Pinellas can better position the City to advance transportation options. The Planning and Development Department recommends that City Council accept Imagine Clearwater A community Vision For the Downtown Clearwater Waterfront. HR&A representative Cary Hirschtein and Sasaki Urban Designer Martin Zogran provided a PowerPoint presentation. Planning and Development Director Michael Delk said there is no perfect plan but changes to the proposed plan are expected. He recommended that changes be approached judiciously; if not, the City runs the risk of not being able to fully pursue the plan as the citizen Page 11 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 2, 2017 initiated effort final draft represents. The proposed plan is the most important ingredient in creating a sense of place, community and establishing Downtown Clearwater as an urban neighborhood. Imagine Clearwater, coupled with the redesign of Cleveland Street as a Complete Street, the implementation of the North Marina Master Plan and the lighting of the Memorial Causeway, will create value and build on the current momentum and provide a renewed sense of ownership for our citizens in Downtown. Mr. Delk said the Stakeholders Committee unanimously recommended this afternoon that Council accept the proposed plan. Deputy City Manager Jill Silverboard said staff requests council consideration to schedule a meeting for Council to discuss the proposed plan and provide direction. The City Clerk has placed a hold for Tuesday, February 21, any time after 4:00 p.m., on Council's calendars. Accepting the plan tonight ends the public engagement component by the consultant. Mr. Delk said the next step would be defining how to implement the plan. Discussion ensued with comments made that accepting the proposed plan tonight would not commit the City to anything mentioned in the plan. In response to questions, Cary said during the sessions the team heard people wanted greater connectivity at the waterfront; the team was cognizant of safety issues and worked with city staff to create a plan to achieve that goal. The community also expressed a desire for a plan that focused on the natural elements of the area; the trend in parks and open spaces across the country is implementing a flexible landscape that supports different program elements. Martin said the proposed estuary is suggestive and addresses stormwater treatment coming from the park; not a legally defined estuary. Ms. Silverboard said Council is not bound to any item included in the plan. Eight individuals spoke in support, with one individual stressing the need to include transportation as part of the planning process. One individual spoke in support and suggested that referendum language not utilize the word "downtown," as the area belongs to all Clearwater citizens. One individual opposed the proposed retention pond included in the plan and expressed disappointment that aerial transit was not included in the plan. One individual said the ULI study stressed the importance of active Page 12 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 2, 2017 destination nodes at the water's edge, such as a restaurant and cautioned against too much green space as it will attract only day time use. In response to questions, Mr. Delk said the final bill related to the elevated transit study expended only a fraction of the approved budget. It was determined early in the process that the park developed in conjunction with the public was not going to accommodate the infrastructure for transit operations. Mr. Delk said that the City also entered into an agreement with PSTA for the multimodal bus transfer facility on a city-owned site. It was also determined by staff and the consultants that analysis was lacking for any of the transit groups offering options in order to make expenditure of the money productive, as it relates to the development of this plan. Mr. Delk said the remaining funds will be returned to the General Fund. He anticipates future council discussion on reinitiating efforts for multi modal options. Councilmember Hamilton moved to Accept Imagine Clearwater A Community Vision for the Downtown Clearwater Waterfront. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. 9. City Attorney Reports – None. 10. Closing comments by Councilmembers (limited to 3 minutes) Vice Mayor Jonson wished his wife a Happy 15th Anniversary. He said he attended a Scenic Florida meeting in Miramar Beach which is a new development area; a conservancy group was created for their project called the Scenic Corridor Foundation, which raised money for undergrounding utilities and landscaping. He complimented the Mayor on his representation of Clearwater at the Tiger Bay meeting. Councilmember Caudell thanked the Mayor for his representation at the Tiger Bay meeting. She thanked the Bluff Masterplan consultants for their work and said work will continue on transportation issues. Councilmember Cundiff said Skytran is an elevated personal rapid transit system that was invented by NASA engineers in conjunction with the Israeli aerospace industry and a system was being installed in Dubai. He said Skytram has at least 20 advantages over other systems, it is solar powered with a small footprint. Skytram is privately funded and does not want to use Page 13 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 2, 2017 public dollars. He discussed a high speed county and state wide system that would have the ability to travel from here to Orlando in 30 minutes Councilmember Hamilton congratulated the Mayor on his representation at the Tiger Bay meeting. He said the Phillies catchers and pitchers will be here in 10 days. He urged all to prepare for the influx of visitors for the high spring season. 11.

(consent) SUMMARY: Lindiakos Properties, Inc (Developer) is constructing 95 townhomes in a new development in Tarpon Springs. The Developer has agreed to use natural gas in at least 75% of the townhomes. This agreement has been modified to remove the Commercial Automobile Liability insurance requirement and standard indemnification language. These changes were made as a result of contract negotiations between the City/Clearwater Gas System and the Developer. Automotive liability was not applicable for this project, and, as the developer is not utilizing any vehicles in connection with the development. The City will be able to pursue common law indemnification if there are losses due to the developer’s negligence. The City’s sovereign immunity under FL Statute Chapter 768.28 is not waived. APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: N/A USE OF RESERVE FUNDS: N/A Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 2/15/2017 [GM17-2064-074/198143/1] CLEARWATER GAS SYSTEM/CITY OF CLEARWATER DEVELOPER AGREEMENT FOR NATURAL GAS DISTRIBUTION SERVICE This Agreement is entered into this ____day of_________, 2017, between the City of Clearwater, Florida, a municipal corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Florida, d/b/a Clearwater Gas System, hereinafter called the "CGS" and __LINDIAKOS PROPERTIES, INC_, a _FLORIDA_____ corporation, hereinafter called the "DEVELOPER". RECITALS A. DEVELOPER is developing land for sale and plans to include, among other things, approximately __ninety-five____ (_95__) townhomes (the “Project”) to be known as _CYPRESS TRAILS_, located in Section_7__, Township _27S___, Range _16E___, Pinellas County, Florida, as more particularly described in Exhibit “A” attached hereto and incorporated herein, and as will be recorded in the Official Records of the Clerk of the Circuit Court, Pinellas County, Florida. B.DEVELOPER, for itself and on behalf of the future owners of residences in the Project, desires to have natural gas service available within the Project. C.CGS desires to install a natural gas distribution system within the Project, at its expense, upon completion of and final approval of CGS’S feasibility report and DEVELOPER has agreed to engage CGS to install such a system within the Project, pursuant to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. CGS understands that this Project will be built in multiple phases (singularly “Phase”, or collectively “Phases”), each of which will be subject to CGS’s feasibility requirements. In line with each Phase meeting CGS’s feasibility requirements, CGS reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to proceed with each Phase as each Phase is approved as to feasibility. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein, and for other good and valuable considerations, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, CGS and DEVELOPER hereby agree as follows. 1. Recitals.The foregoing Recitals are true and correct and are incorporated in and form a part of this Agreement. 2.Gas Distribution System. 2.1 Installation of Gas Distribution System. CGS agrees to design and install a natural gas distribution system within the Project, including all necessary distribution lines, meters and ancillary facilities (collectively, the "System") necessary to provide natural gas service up to the meter of each residence constructed during the term of this Agreement as a Gas Compliant Residence in conformity with Section 3. The design of the System shall be subject to DEVELOPER’s review and approval prior to CGS’s commencement of construction thereof, for purposes of integration of the System into the Project. CGS shall control design of the System for gas operations purposes. The System does not include any facilities past the meter and CGS [GM17-2064-074/198143/1] has no obligation to install or maintain such "behind the meter" facilities. DEVELOPER and CGS agree to reasonably cooperate with respect to the design and construction of the Project infrastructure, including without limitation, the System. Such cooperation shall include, without limitation, providing responses to requests for information required for development permits, plat approvals, and similar authorizations within fourteen (14) days of either parties’ receipt of a request for any such information from the other party. The parties agree to use all commercially reasonable efforts to cause the System to be designed and constructed in coordination with the other Project infrastructure, so that (i) commencement of construction of the System can commence in concert with the commencement of construction of the other Project infrastructure; and (ii) each phase of System can be completed simultaneous with completion of the other infrastructure located within the same Phase of the Project. 2.2 Preparation for Installation and Easements. DEVELOPER represents that it owns and has legal title to the real property on which the Project will be constructed and has the authority to develop the Project and to enter into this Agreement. DEVELOPER shall provide or cause to be provided to CGS, and its employees, agents and subcontractors, adequate physical and legal access including recorded, assignable non-exclusive easements and/or rights of way to all reasonably necessary areas of the Project in substantially the form attached hereto and incorporated herein as Exhibit “B”, and/or by recorded, platted easements, all as reasonably necessary for the installation, operation, maintenance, repair and replacement of the System. With respect to such easements, DEVELOPER shall secure the consent and joinder of all necessary parties. DEVELOPER reserves the right to relocate any easement made available hereunder if necessary for the development of the Project, provided that construction of the portion of the System subject to any such relocated easement has not yet been commenced, and suitable easements and access for the System to all portions of the Project are maintained and provided. In the event that DEVELOPER desires to modify any easement relating to any portion of the System after installation, then DEVELOPER must obtain CGS’S advance written consent to any easement modification, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, and DEVELOPER shall reimburse CGS for design, materials, construction and other costs associated with any relocation of the System and shall provide reasonably acceptable substitute easements. 2.3 Installation Schedule. CGS agrees to cooperate with DEVELOPER with respect to the construction of the System and to use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize interference with DEVELOPER’S construction of the Project. If so requested, CGS shall furnish System plans, excepting any proprietary information, to DEVELOPER. DEVELOPER agrees to establish and reasonably manage a Project construction schedule that provides CGS with reasonably sufficient time and access to construct the System within the Project. 2.4 Ownership of Gas Distribution System. The components of the System located on the supply side of each gas meter (and including each such meter) shall remain the exclusive property of CGS at all times during and following the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement. CGS’S operation of the System is not governed by the terms of this Agreement; rather, CGS shall operate the System in accordance with the City of Clearwater’s Code of Ordinances, City policy and the requirements of applicable regulations and law. In the [GM17-2064-074/198143/1] event the Project is not completed and/or the gas facilities and service are for any reason abandoned by DEVELOPER or its successors, and the System, or any part thereof, is no longer required to serve the Project, CGS may at its election remove readily removable, non-essential components of the System, purge and cap any components to be left in place, and restore any disrupted surface areas of the Project. 3. Gas Appliance Requirements. In recognition of the substantial investment made by CGS in constructing the System, DEVELOPER agrees that _seventy-five_ percent (_75__%) of the townhomes in the Project will be built with an energy efficient gas water heater, gas range gas dryer and gas fireplace (“Gas Compliant Residences”). In consideration of DEVELOPER constructing the Gas Compliant Residences, DEVELOPER will be entitled to an Energy Conservation Allowance as defined and provided for in paragraph 4. DEVELOPER agrees that each "MODEL" residence in the Project will be a Gas Compliant Residence. Further, DEVELOPER agrees to make a reasonable effort to utilize natural gas and natural gas appliances and equipment in common areas of the Project such as community club houses, community fitness centers, community pools, street lamps, community laundries and central water heating systems. Additionally, DEVELOPER agrees to make a reasonable effort to require natural gas for any commercial portions of the Project where economically feasible and as applicable. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Gas Compliant Residence” shall be defined as those homes constructed with an energy efficient, natural gas water heater, natural gas range, natural gas fireplace and natural gas clothes dryer. 4.Energy Conservation Allowance. DEVELOPER may be entitled to Energy Conservation Allowance payments for each home constructed in the Project that meets the requirements of CGS’S Energy Conservation Program (the “Program”), as may be amended from time to time by the Clearwater City Council. A summary of the allowance payments presently allowed under the Program is attached hereto as Exhibit “C”. In the event the Clearwater City Council rules or otherwise determines that the energy conservation allowance payments referenced above, or any portion thereof, may not be recovered by CGS through the Energy Conservation Adjustment, or that the entitlements under the Program shall be changed, then CGS’S obligation to thereafter make said allowance payments will be bound by such City Council directive and, as such, said allowance payments shall be adjusted to conform to such Council directive or terminate, as applicable, upon completion of construction of any homes then under construction in the Project (which homes shall remain eligible for allowance payments without such adjustment). During the term of this Agreement, CGS shall have the right to inspect any residence for which a claim for an allowance has been made, at reasonable times and upon notice to DEVELOPER and the applicable landowner. DEVELOPER shall be entitled to the Energy Conservation Allowance upon verification that the requirements of each Gas Compliant Residence have been met and a Certificate of Occupancy has been issued for that Residence. 5.

(consent) SUMMARY: Clearwater Gas System (CGS) is installing a 6-in. natural gas distribution main along Bexley Village Drive in Pasco County, just north of State Road 54. This main extension will serve the new Bexley Ranch neighborhood currently under construction. CGS will be crossing the Tampa Bay Water (TBW) transmission line easement that runs parallel with the Tower Rd right-of-way. To cross this easement, CGS will have to enter into a Mutual Use Agreement (MUA) with TBW. This agreement will allow CGS to connect CGS’ main to its current distribution system within Bexley Ranch. CGS has previously crossed TBW at Ballantrae Blvd and Tower Rd. This new crossing at Bexley Village Drive is being constructed to provide looping of the CGS system, which will enhance system reliability.

(consent) SUMMARY: The Parks and Recreation Department organizes field trips requiring bus transportation for participants. The Pinellas County School System allows municipalities to utilize their fleet of buses and drivers for $1.50 per mile plus $29.00 per hour for driver with a five-hour booking minimum. During the summer of 2017, the department will organize approximately 150 field trips that may utilize school bus transportation. Comparing a sampling cost of school buses for these trips against the use of private bus lines indicates school buses are generally a less costly mode of transportation. During the past year, the City utilized school buses for field trips at a cost of approximately $35,000. Approval of this Agreement will provide staff with a larger number of options when determining the most cost effective source of transportation for participants. The Agreement is similar to agreements between the Pinellas County School Board and other Pinellas County municipalities that utilize school bus transportation. The Recreation Programming Division’s Operating Budget contains sufficient funds to cover the costs associated with this Agreement. This item supports the City's Strategic Plan by partnering with other public organizations to be more efficient in providing services and programs to the youth of our community.

Moore Softball Complex for SPC softball, and terminates an older license agreement between SPC and the City to use the Joe DiMaggio Sports Complex and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent) SUMMARY: SPC transferred ownership of the Joe DiMaggio Sports Complex to the City in July 2000 in exchange for the college having priority use of the baseball fields for their baseball program. SPC desires to improve their baseball and softball programs and to provide improvements to City facilities in order to meet this goal. The City has made several improvements to the Jack Russell Stadium complex including renovation of restrooms, batting tunnels, painting of structures and is currently constructing new offices to house the Athletic section of the Parks and Recreation Department. However, much is still left to be done and SPC wants to partner with the City to make improvements to the main clubhouse which will then be used by SPC and the City. This License Agreement will replace the previous License Agreement and terminate the other agreement in its entirety. This Agreement will allow SPC first priority for use of Jack Russell Stadium working in good faith with Clearwater High School baseball team and the City’s sports tourism initiatives. In addition SPC will have first priority for use of E.C. Moore Softball Complex for games and practices for the softball team. SPC will make improvements and renovations to the locker facilities and other baseball amenities on site which will become the property of the City. SPC will reimburse the City for all direct expenses associated with their facility usages i.e. field lighting, utility charges, staff and field maintenance.

(consent) SUMMARY: Staff is requesting approval of a service agreement with Quorum Services LLC to provide inspection and plan review for the Planning and Development Department. Services to be provided by Quorum include, but are not limited to inspections for construction permits and plan review for construction permit applications. During calendar year 2016, a total of $352,000 was spent on outside contractor inspection and plan review services. Construction projects continue to be very active with some sizable projects. The inability to find qualified inspectors, and also our commitment to expedient service has resulted in the need for these outside contractor expenses. Quorum Services is the low responsive bidder to Invitation to Bid Number 03-17, issued on November 18, 2016. Five responses were received for the bid. The Department also requests, within this authorization, the approval to utilize the secondary responsive bidder, Joe Payne, Inc. in a limited capacity at any time that Quorum is unable to respond in a timely manner to the City’s needs. Qualified licensed professionals have been very difficult to find. APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: Funding for the Purchase Order(s) will come from budget line item for Contractual Services 0-010-1430-530300-524-000. USE OF RESERVE FUNDS: N/A Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 2/15/2017 Cover Memo City of Clearwater City Hall 112 S. Osceola Avenue Clearwater, FL 33756 File Number: ID#17-3234 Agenda Date: 2/16/2017 Status: Consent AgendaVersion: 1 File Type: Action ItemIn Control: Planning & Development Agenda Number: 7.10 SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION: Amend City Council Policies to add a new Block Party Insurance Requirement under General Administration. (consent) SUMMARY: A neighborhood block party is an opportunity for neighbors to get together, meet each other, have fun, and work together on a common activity. Each year, dozens of Clearwater neighborhoods hold block parties which can range from small barbecues or pot lucks to larger neighborhood-wide events with amusements like bounce houses and other activities in the City’s rights-of-way. Neighborhoods apply for block party permits, which the Neighborhood Coordinator assists with; however, because the City is issuing a permit for the block party, it can potentially have greater risk of liability should something happen during the event in the City’s right-of-way. Planning and Development, Parks and Recreation, and Risk Management staff have worked together to develop a new block party application process which ensures efficient customer service while also insulating the City of any claims arising from such an event. Staff is proposing a two-tier system which differentiates smaller scale block parties that do not include amusements or alcohol in the right-of-way (Tier 1 block parties) from those larger-scale parties that include high risk components and activities in the right-of-way such as alcohol consumption, cooking and inflatable amusements (Tier 2 block parties). A new City Council policy is proposed that would establish this two-tier system and enable the City to require liability insurance for those parties that are higher liability risks for the City. If the block party organizer and/or Homeowner’s Association (HOA) does not have liability insurance, the City recommends purchasing a Tulip Tenant Users Liability Insurance Policy, provided by Specialty Advantage Insurance Services. Proposed General Administration Policy I (with subsequent policies re-lettered): I. Block Party Insurance Requirement: In order to insulate the City from claims resulting from activities held in the public right-of-way in City-permitted block parties, block parties shall be administered using a two-tier approach, which differentiates between smaller scale block parties that do not include amusements or alcohol in the right-of-way (Tier 1 block parties) from those larger-scale parties that include high risk components and activities (i.e., alcohol zones, fire pits, inflatable amusements) (Tier Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 2/15/2017 File Number: ID#17-3234 2 block parties). Prior to the issuance of a block party permit, block parties categorized as Tier 2 shall be required to demonstrate that they have general liability insurance in the amount of $1,000,000 for which the City is listed as additionally insured.

Application Fee Waivers. Generally, building permit, occupational license, plan review and zoning-related application fees will not be waived except for City projects and other governmental agencies. If staff believes special conditions exist, such requests may be brought to the Council for consideration. Application fee waivers for governmental agencies will include all governmental projects including those in which the governmental agency is leasing property from a third party, providing the governmental agency is the entity which applies for and obtains the permit. PACT will be considered a governmental entity when considering application fee waivers. NOTE:The City Clerk's research regarding waiver of application fees shows the following: Chi Chi Rodriquez Youth Foundation - no waivers Center Foundation - waive building permit fees Pinellas County - waived building permit fees for work done by County forces; waive fees for variance application State of Florida - waive fees for variance applications Clearwater Ferry - waive building permit fees St. Petersburg College - refunded building permit fee for parking lot Skye Lane Properties, LLC – waived permit, application, inspection,and other fees via Resolution 14-03 None of the above includes waiving impact fees. B.Bright and Beautiful. In order to maintain and enhance the image of Bright and Beautiful Clearwater, the Council supports staff in enhanced solid waste recycling and conservation projects, tightening and increasing enforcement of codes (i.e., fence landscaping, prohibition of banners,lot clearing, etc.). Staff is also directed to place a greater emphasis on and coordinate aesthetic consideration on site plans and other development review (i.e., placement of dumpsters, fencing of dumpsters,property landscaping and landscaping of parking lots including perimeter plantings).

The purpose of this policy is to establish the guidelines for the placement of standardized roadside memorials for people that have died as a result of a motor vehicle, pedestrian or bicycle crash within City maintained right- of-way on segments of roadway in incorporated Clearwater. The City of Clearwater, Traffic Operations Division, is responsible for the implementation of the Roadside Memorial Marker Program. The policy will apply to fatalities occurring after January 1,2005. The installation of a roadside memorial marker will be processed in accordance with the following: Requests for a memorial marker shall be submitted in writing to the Traffic Operations Division of Engineering by filling out a Memorial Marker Request Form. The form will be available online from the City’s website or by calling the City. Requests may be made by immediate family members or friends. Requests from friends require written approval from the deceased’s immediate family. Memorial markers will be designed, constructed and installed by the Clearwater Traffic Operations Division. The Traffic Operations Division will be responsible for designing the sign and ensuring proper and safe placement – the exact location will be at the discretion of the City. Memorial markers will not be allowed within the limits of active construction work zones. There shall be no activities while the memorial marker is in place that pose a safety hazard to the public or that violates any provision of Chapter 316 of the Florida Statutes concerning stopping, standing, parking, or obstruction of traffic on public roads. Memorial Markers will only be installed in residential areas where fatalities occurred with the written permission of the resident whose property is abutting the residential right of way where the memorial is to be placed. The requesting citizen will be notified once the installation is complete. Memorial markers will be allowed to remain in place for one year after installation unless earlier removal is necessitated by construction activities. After one year the sign will be removed by City forces. The memorial marker shall be a 15” diameter aluminum sign with a white background and black letters. 26 General Administration (contd.) The sign message will state ‘Drive Safely – In memory’, and the family will have the option of adding the deceased’s name to the sign. As an option, the City can offer an alternate safety message to the ‘Drive Safely’ legend if desired by the family that would be specific to the type of crash, and as long as it will fit on the sign. Examples could be ‘Don’t Drink and Drive’, ‘Buckle Up’, ‘Slow Down’,etc. The sign will be mounted at a height of 3.5’ (42”) from the ground to the top of the sign. The applicant will incur the cost of design, construction, installation, maintenance, and removal of the memorial marker. This cost is $300.00. Upon request the sign becomes the property of the applicant. LK. City Sponsored Events. Events sponsored by the City, such as Volunteer Recognition, Advisory Board Appreciation, etc., shall be held within the City limits of Clearwater, unless the cost for a venue outside the City limits is at least 20%less. ML. CourtneyCampbell Parkway (State Road 60) Welcome Signage Program. Welcome signs are intended to greet visitors to Clearwater and share accomplishments of national or international significance (awards) or significant historical events that have been a part of the City of Clearwater. Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has permitted two welcome signs to be installed by the City on FDOT right-of-way on the north side of Courtney Campbell Parkway (State Road 60): 1) a general welcome to City of Clearwater sign, and 2) a sign dedicated to recognizing a special award of national or international significance or a Clearwater historical event. The installation of a welcome sign will be processed in accordance with the following: •Requests for a welcome sign shall be submitted in writing to the Parks and Recreation Department by filling out a Courtney Campbell Parkway (State Road 60) Welcome Signage Program Application. The form is available online at www.myclearwater.com, or by calling the Parks and Recreation Department. •The award to be recognized by the welcome sign must be of national or international significance. ► Accomplishment of national or international significance is 27 General Administration (contd.) an achievement or completion of an award granted to an organization or to the City in recognition of being the best in the entire nation or the best involving two or more countries that promote and enhance the image of Clearwater. ►Significant Clearwater historical events are defined as events that are unique to Clearwater and add to the overall understanding of the City and its history. •If approved, a welcome sign may be allowed for a period not to exceed two years. •Requests for a welcome sign may be made by a group or an individual, however written approval to use the event or award to be recognized must be secured from the governing body being represented. In cases where the request is for a group or organization no longer in existence but historically significant to the City no approval is necessary. •Welcome signs, if approved, will be designed, constructed and installed by the Parks and Recreation Department. Requesting group is responsible to reimburse the City for all direct expenses (approximately $1,000 -$2,000). •The City Council must approve all welcome sign application requests. •The Courtney Campbell Parkway (State Road 60) Welcome Signage Program is dependent on continued permitted approvals given by FDOT. If for some reason FDOT does not approve permitting the welcome signs, this policy becomes void and any existing signage would be removed. The Parks and Recreation Department is responsible for the coordination of the Courtney Campbell Parkway (State Road 60) Welcome Signage Program. Cover Memo City of Clearwater City Hall 112 S.

(ANX2016-11039) SUMMARY: These voluntary annexation petitions involve 0.34-acres of property consisting of two parcels of land each occupied by a single-family dwelling. The first parcel of 0.167 acres is located at the southeast corner of Stevenson’s Drive and Carol Drive, approximately 280 feet west of N. Betty Lane (1515 Stevenson's Drive) and the second parcel of 0.18 acres is located on the north side of Woodbine Street, approximately 340 feet east of N. Betty Lane (1316 Woodbine Street). Both applicants are requesting annexation in order to receive solid waste service from the City, and the applicant for 1316 Woodbine Street is also requesting to receive sanitary sewer service. The Development Review Committee is proposing that the 0.49-acres of abutting Stevenson’s Drive and Carol Drive right-of-way not currently within the city limits also be annexed. Both parcels 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 Low (RL) and a Zoning Atlas designation of Low Medium Density Residential (LMDR). The Planning and Development Department determined that the proposed annexations are consistent with the provisions of Community Development Code Section 4-604.E as follows: ·Both properties currently receive water service from Pinellas County. The applicant for 1316 Woodbine Street is requesting sanitary sewer and the closest line is located in the adjacent Woodbine Street right-of-way. The applicant has paid the City's sewer impact and assessment fees and is aware of the additional costs to extend City sewer service to this property. For the property located at 1515 Stevenson’s Drive the closest sanitary sewer line is located in the adjacent Stevenson’s Drive right-of-way, and the applicant is aware of the additional costs to extend City sewer service to this property. The applicant has chosen not to connect to sanitary sewer at this time and is aware of the associated monthly fee. Collection of solid waste for both properties will be provided by the City of Clearwater. The properties are located within Police District II Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 2/15/2017 File Number: ANX2016-11039 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 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 Low (RL) 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 5 units per acre. The proposed zoning district to be assigned to these properties is the Low Medium Density Residential (LMDR) District. The use of the 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 ·Both parcels are contiguous to existing city boundaries along at least one property boundary; therefore the annexations are consistent with Florida Statutes Chapter 171.044.

Osceola Avenue Clearwater, FL 33756 File Number: HDA2016-09001 Agenda Date: 2/16/2017 Status: Public HearingVersion: 1 File Type: Action ItemIn Control: Planning & Development Agenda Number: 8.2 SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION: Provide direction on the proposed Development Agreement between North Clearwater Beach Development, LLC (the property owner) and the City of Clearwater, providing for the allocation of 10 units from the Hotel Density Reserve under Beach by Design and confirm a second public hearing in City Council Chambers before City Council on March 2, 2017 at 6:00 p.m., or as soon thereafter as may be heard. (HDA2016-09001) SUMMARY: Site Location and Existing Conditions: The 0.35-acre site is located on the south side of Bay Esplanade approximately 230 feet east of Poinsettia Avenue. The subject property is comprised of two parcels with a frontage of approximately 130 feet along Bay Esplanade. The site is occupied by 11 attached dwellings within two buildings; a one-story and two-story. The subject property is zoned Tourist (T) District with an underlying Future Land Use Plan (FLUP) category of Resort Facilities High (RFH). The subject property is also located within the Old Florida District of Beach by Design. Vehicular access to the site is generally provided by a drop curb along Bay Esplanade which runs along the entire north side of the site providing access to parking spaces which exist at least partially if not entirely within and back out into the Bay Esplanade right-of-way. Building frontage is generally located along Bay Esplanade. The larger area is characterized generally by overnight accommodation and attached dwelling uses with heights ranging from one to four stories. A hotel 75 feet in height is under construction immediately to the north of the site across Bay Esplanade. A dock with five slips is located along the south side of the site. It should be noted that the dock will only be permitted to be used as an accessory use to the hotel and limited to use by to registered hotel guests only. Development Proposal: The current proposal is to demolish all structures on the site and build a single seven -floor hotel with 27 hotel rooms (78 units per acre). The 27 proposed units include 17 units otherwise permitted by the Resort Facilities High Future Land Use classification and an additional 10 units from the Hotel Density Reserve through Beach by Design. The building will be 75 feet (from Base Flood Elevation) to roof with the parking on the first floor. The proposal includes a tropical modern architecture, which is consistent with and complements the tropical vernacular envisioned in Beach by Design. The site will be accessed via two driveways with one two-way driveway located at the northeast corner of the property and the second driveway (an ingress-only) located at the Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 2/15/2017 File Number: HDA2016-09001 northwest corner. A service drive is located at the northeast corner of the building along Bay Esplanade. The primary entrance and lobby of the building will be located along Bay Esplanade on the second floor. As noted, the first (ground) floor of the building will contain all 32 required parking spaces as well as a solid waste component. The second through fourth floors contain five hotel units each with the remaining three floors containing four rooms each. The fifth floor also includes an open veranda. The roof level (available for guests only) includes a pool, dog run, fitness room, restroom, a small bar and a variety of seating and lounging areas. The existing dock is proposed to remain and will function as an accessory use to the proposed hotel and will be available only for hotel guests. It should be noted that the proposal includes the provision of an atypical lobby arrangement where a small office/registration area is provided at the northwest corner of the second floor . The registration area will be staffed between 9:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. The applicant has provided that an agent will otherwise be available via telephone 24 hours a day/seven days a week. In short, the proposed lobby consists of a small office area tucked into a corner of the second floor which will, for the most part, be unstaffed. This point, specifically, is in direct conflict with the provision of Section V.B.2 of Beach by Design which provides that a “reservation system shall be required as an integral part of the hotel use and there shall be a lobby/front desk area that must be operated as a typical lobby/front desk area for a hotel would be operated”. Consistency with the Community Development Code (CDC): Minimum Lot Area and Width: The subject property is 15,175 square feet in area and approximately 130 feet wide. The proposed lot area and width may be approved as part of a Level Two (FLD) application, subject to meeting the applicable flexibility criteria of the Community Development Code Minimum Setbacks: The conceptual site plan depicts setbacks to building of 16 feet along the front (north) along Bay Esplanade and five feet along all other remaining sides of the site. The conceptual site plan depicts setbacks to pavement of 10 feet along the front (north) along Bay Esplanade and zero feet along all other remaining sides of the site. The proposed setbacks may be approved as part of a Level One (FLS) application, subject to meeting the applicable flexibility criteria of the Community Development Code. Maximum Height: Section A.1.c of the Old Florida District within Beach by Design specifically addresses height. The proposal provides for a building 75 feet in height as measured from BFE where a height of up to 75 feet is permitted for overnight accommodations. The proposed height is also permitted by the CDC subject to meeting the applicable flexibility criteria of the CDC and as approved as part of a Level II Flexible Development application and as otherwise limited by Beach by Design. The height of the proposed building is consistent with the guidelines of Beach by Design. Minimum Off-Street Parking: The 27-room overnight accommodation use requires a minimum of 32 off-street parking spaces. A parking garage located on the first levels of the building will provide a minimum of 32 spaces. This is consistent with the applicable Sections of the CDC. Landscaping: Page 2 City of Clearwater Printed on 2/15/2017 File Number: HDA2016-09001 While a formal landscape plan is not required to be submitted for review at this time, the conceptual landscape areas depicted on the site plan show that adequate spaces for foundation landscaping will be provided along the street frontage as required by Section A.6 of the Old Florida District within Beach by Design. Since no perimeter landscape buffers are otherwise required in the Tourist (T) District, the proposed landscape areas meet or exceed what is required. It is noted, however, that flexibility may be requested/necessary as part of a Comprehensive Landscape Program which would be reviewed at time of formal site plan approval. Consistency with Beach by Design: Old Florida District Section A.1 specifies that overnight accommodations may be permitted up to a height of 75 feet (except for those properties located along Somerset Street). The property is not located along Somerset Street and a height of 75 feet is proposed. Section A.2 specifies that a 15 foot front setback is required as are 10 foot side and rear setbacks. All setbacks are specifically to building. Section A.4 provides that a maximum reduction of five feet from any required setback (to building) may be possible. The proposal includes a front setback of 16 feet and five foot setback on all other sides. Section A.3 provides requirements for stepbacks and setbacks for building exceeding 35 feet in height. Any development exceeding 35 feet in height shall be required to incorporate a building stepback on at least one side of the building (at a point of 35 feet). In the case of the subject property, the stepback is required along the north side of the building along Bay Esplanade. This section also specifies that a stepback/setback ratio, for this property is one foot for every 2.5 feet in building height above 35 feet. The additional stepback/setback for the proposed building is 16 feet. The total required stepback/setback distance for this project from the front (north) property line is between 26 and 31 feet (depending on if a reduction of five feet along the front property were requested as provided for in Section A .2). The applicant has provided a 16 foot setback (to building) and a 15 foot stepback at 35 feet for a total stepback/setback distance of 31 feet. Section A.6 requires a 10 foot landscape buffer is along all street frontages where the proposal includes a landscape buffer area of 10 feet along Bay Esplanade. Design Guidelines: A review of the provided architectural elevations and massing study was conducted and the proposed building does appear to be generally consistent with the applicable Design Guidelines established in Beach by Design. It is noted, however, that a more formal review of these Guidelines will need to be conducted as part of the final site plan approval process. Hotel Density Reserve: The project has been reviewed for compliance with those criteria established within Beach by Design concerning the allocation of hotel rooms from the Reserve. The project is inconsistent with the criterion which requires the provision of a typical lobby arrangement. The proposed lobby consists of a small office tucked into a corner of the second floor which will, for the most part, be unstaffed. Other criteria are met, including that the development comply with the Metropolitan Planning Organization’s (MPO) countywide approach to the application of traffic concurrency management for transportation facilities. The submitted Traffic Impact Study concludes that traffic operations at nearby intersections and on adjacent roadways would continue at acceptable levels of service. Page 3 City of Clearwater Printed on 2/15/2017 File Number: HDA2016-09001 Standards for Development Agreements: The proposal is in compliance with the standards for development agreements and is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. However, the proposal is in direct conflict with the provision of Section V.B.2 of Beach by Design which provides that a “reservation system shall be required as an integral part of the hotel use and there shall be a lobby/front desk area that must be operated as a typical lobby/front desk area for a hotel would be operated”. The proposed Development Agreement will be in effect for a period not to exceed ten years, meets the criteria for the allocation of rooms from the Hotel Density Reserve under Beach by Design and includes the following main provisions: §Provides for the allocation of 10 units from the Hotel Density Reserve; §Requires the developer to obtain building permits and certificates of occupancy in accordance with Community Development Code (CDC) Section 4-407; §Requires the return of any hotel unit obtained from the Hotel Density Reserve that is not constructed; §password §Prohibits the conversion of any hotel unit allocated from the Hotel Density Reserve to a residential use and requires the recording of a covenant restricting use of such hotel units to overnight accommodation usage; and §Requires a legally enforceable mandatory evacuation/closure covenant that the hotel will be closed as soon as practicable after a hurricane watch that includes Clearwater Beach is posted by the National Hurricane Center.

Developer is the owner of fee simple title to the real property described in Schedule 1 attached hereto and made a part hereof (hereinafter, the ("Real Property"). The City of Clearwater, Florida (the "City"), has amended its Comprehensive Plan to designate Clearwater Beach as a Community Redevelopment District pursuant to the Pinellas County Planning Council Rules in order to implement the provisions of Beach by Design, a plan for the revitalization of Clearwater Beach. The designation of Clearwater Beach as a Community Redevelopment District (the "Designation") provides for the allocation of Hotel Density Reserve Units as an incentive for the development of mid-size quality hotels. Pursuant to the Designation, the allocation of Hotel Density Reserve Units is subject to compliance with a series of performance standards, including a requirement that resorts containing a hotel developed with Hotel Density Reserve Units shall be closed and all Guests evacuated from such hotels as soon as practicable after the National Hurricane Center posts a hurricane watch that includes Clearwater Beach. The purpose of such evacuation is to ensure that such a hotel is evacuated in advance of the period of time when a hurricane evacuation would be expected in advance of the approach of hurricane force winds. The City has granted, by City Council Resolution __________, passed and approved on ____________, 20___, Developer's application for Hotel Density Reserve Units pursuant to the Designation, subject to Developer's compliance with the requirements of the Designation. Developer desires for itself, and its successors and assigns, as owner, to establish certain rights, duties, obligations and responsibilities with respect to the use and operation of the Real Property in accordance with the terms and conditions of the allocation of the Hotel Density Reserve Units to the City and the Designation, which rights, duties, obligations and responsibilities shall be binding on any and all successors and assigns and will run with the title to the Real Property.

All other units shall be licensed as a public lodging establishment. No unit shall be used as a primary or permanent residence. Access to overnight accommodation units must be provided through a lobby and internal corridor. A reservation system shall be required as an integral part of the hotel use and there shall be a lobby/front desk area that must be operated as a typical lobby/front desk area for a hotel would be operated. All hotel units shall be required to be submitted to a rental program requiring all hotel units to be available for members of the public as overnight hotel guests on a transient basis at all times. No unit shall have a complete kitchen facility as that term is used in the definition of “dwelling unit” in the Code. Developer shall make available for inspection to authorized representatives of the City its books and records pertaining to each Hotel Density Reserve unit upon reasonable notice to confirm compliance with these regulations as allowed by general law. The Developer agrees to comply with the Design Guidelines as set forth in Section VII. of Beach by Design. 2.1.2 As used herein, the terms "transient occupancy," "public lodging establishment," "hotel”, and "operator" shall have the meaning given to such terms in Florida Statutes Chapter 509, Part I. 2.2 Closure of Improvements and Evacuation.

In the event that the National Hurricane Center shall modify the terminology employed to warn of the approach of hurricane force winds, the closure and evacuation provisions of this Declaration shall be governed by the level of warning employed by the National Hurricane Center which precedes the issuance of a forecast of probable landfall in order to ensure that the guests, visitors and employees will be evacuated in advance of the issuance of a forecast of probable landfall. 18 3 Effective Date. This Declaration shall become effective upon issuance of all building permits required to build the project ("Project") and Developer's commencement of construction of the Project, as evidence by a Notice of Commencement for the Project.

Proposal The applicant proposes to redevelop the site at 657 and 663 Bay Esplanade with a new overnight accommodation use with 27 units. A total of 10 hotel units are requested to be allocated from the Hotel Density Reserve for this development. The site is presently developed with a total of 11 attached dwelling units, all which will be demolished for the new building and site improvements. There exists a dock with five slips on submerged land proposed to be retained as an accessory use to the hotel and for the sole use of its guests. The proposed hotel will offer a coastal modern architectural design for travelers looking for a mid-priced hotel with limited services. The design provides a seven-story hotel with six levels of hotel rooms over ground level parking at a building height of 75 feet from Base Flood Elevation (BFE). An accessory swimming pool with restrooms, fitness room and small bar/grill area for use of the hotel guests is located on the roof deck. Limited food service may be provided for guests only (not open to the general public). An office/registration desk with lobby is located on Floor 2. All guest rooms are accessed through internal corridors. A total of 32 parking spaces, meeting the required amount of parking spaces, are provided on the ground floor. This proposed hotel is expected to generate approximately 10 new jobs. The site is located within the area designated by Beach by Design as the Old Florida District. Beach by Design identifies this area as an area of transition between resort uses in Central Beach to the low intensity residential neighborhoods to the north of Acacia Street. The mix of uses primarily includes residential, recreational, overnight accommodations and institutional uses. To that end, Beach by Design supports the development of new overnight accommodations, attached dwellings and resort attached dwellings throughout the District with limited retail/commercial and mixed use development fronting Mandalay Avenue between Bay Esplanade and Somerset Street. The proposed Overnight Accommodations project fits well into this vision of this District. Site Location and Existing Conditions The subject site is comprised of two platted lots with a total lot area of 0.348 acre. The site is located approximately 220 feet east of Poinsettia Avenue and 400 feet south of Somerset Street. The site has 132 feet of frontage. The subject site is currently developed with a total of 11 attached dwelling units, all which will be removed for the new structure. There exists a dock with five slips as an accessory use, which will remain with the proposed overnight accommodation use for the sole use of its guests. The subject property is zoned Tourist (T) District with a Future Land Use Plan (FLUP) category of Resort Facilities High (RFH) and is located in the Old Florida District of Beach by Design. 2 Compliance with the Flexible Development Standards of CDC Table 2-803 and other CDC Requirements Density – The maximum density permissible for overnight accommodations in the Tourist (T) District is 50 units per acre. Based on this maximum permissible density of 50 units per acre and a lot area of 0.348 acre, this produces a maximum number of units of 17.4 units. The proposed Development Agreement requests 10 overnight accommodation units from the Hotel Density Reserve. The overall density with a total of 27 overnight accommodation units will be 77.6 units per acre, which is less than the 90 units per acre permitted under the Hotel Density Reserve. Minimum Lot Area and Width – The minimum lot area for an overnight accommodation use is 10,000 – 20,000 square feet, pursuant to CDC Table 2-803. The subject site area is 15,175 square feet, which is within the lot area requirements of this standard for overnight accommodations. The minimum lot width for an overnight accommodation use is 100 – 150 feet, pursuant to CDC Table 2-803. The subject site has a lot width of 132 feet (measured at the front setback of 15 feet) along Bay Esplanade, which is within the lot width requirements of this standard for overnight accommodations. Minimum Setbacks and Stepbacks – The setbacks for an overnight accommodation use pursuant to CDC Table 2-803 are a minimum front setback of 0 – 15 feet, a minimum side setback of 0 – 10 feet and a minimum rear setback of 0 – 20 feet. However, Beach by Design sets a minimum front setback of 15 feet, a side setback of 10 feet and a rear setback of 10 feet for all development in the Old Florida District, which governs over the CDC requirements. The Old Florida District provides a maximum reduction of five feet from any required setback if the decreased setback results in an improved site plan, landscaping areas in excess of the minimum required and/or improved design and appearance. Section D of the Design Guidelines of Beach by Design states that there should be a 12-foot setback to structures along local streets (which includes Bay Esplanade). The proposal includes a new building and site improvements with a front (north) setback of 16 feet to the building and 10 feet to pavement. The proposal also includes a side (east) setback of five feet to the building and pavement. A side (west) setback of five feet to the building and pavement is provided. Finally, the proposal includes a rear (south) setback of 10 feet to the building and five feet to pavement. Bay Esplanade adjacent to this site is an east/west orientation requiring a building stepback on the either the east or west side (Section 3.c of the Old Florida District of Beach by Design). A building stepback, based on the proposed building height above 35 feet above Base Flood Elevation (BFE), of 10.8 feet is required and 11.5 feet is provided on the west side for floors 5 – 7. The Old Florida District also requires a stepback or an increased setback on the front of the building, where 16 feet is required for buildings over 35 feet in height above BFE. The proposal is for a front stepback of 15 feet to the building and, when combined with the provided setback of 16 feet, provides for a total stepback of 31 feet above the 35 feet in height above BFE, complying with the requirements. Maximum Height – The maximum building height for an overnight accommodation use is between 35 – 100 feet, pursuant to CDC Table 2-803. The proposal includes a building height of 75 feet to the top of roof deck from BFE for the flat roofed restrooms, fitness room, architectural grid pergola and tent structure on the roof level of the proposed building, which is within the maximum allowable height range of Table 2-803. The maximum allowable height for overnight accommodation uses in the Old Florida District of Beach by Design is 75 feet above BFE, where the proposal does not exceed the maximum allowable. 3 Minimum Off-Street Parking – The minimum required parking for an overnight accommodation use is 1.0 – 1.2 parking spaces per unit. There are a total of 27 units proposed, with a requirement of between 27 – 32 parking spaces. A total of 32 parking spaces are proposed with this request. Most guests are anticipated to not bring a vehicle to the hotel, but will walk, use taxis or public transportation to access other areas of the beach and downtown while staying at the hotel. The Trolley traverses Bay Esplanade and currently picks up guests in front of this site. Mechanical Equipment – Mechanical equipment will be located on the east and west sides of the building on the fourth level of hotel rooms (overall Level 5) and will be adequately screened from view from adjacent properties and rights-of-way by solid screening. The screening of mechanical equipment will be reviewed at time of the building permit submission. Sight Visibility Triangles – CDC Section 3-904.A restricts structures and landscaping which will obstruct views at a level of 30 inches and eight feet above grade within 20-foot sight visibility triangles at driveways and street intersections. A two-way driveway is proposed on the east side of Bay Esplanade providing access to the ground-level parking area, as well as a one-way entrance on the west side of Bay Esplanade. The building is not located within the visibility triangles between 30 inches and eight feet above grade and planted landscaping will be maintained to meet this requirement. CDC Section 3-904.B requires a 20-foot waterfront sight visibility triangle at the southeast and southwest corners of the property. The proposed building does not encroach into the waterfront sight visibility triangles. Only a non-opaque fence will be provided and no landscaping other than sod will be planted within the waterfront sight visibility triangles in compliance with this Code provision. Utilities – For development that does not involve a subdivision, CDC Section 3-912 requires all utilities including individual distribution lines to be installed underground unless such undergrounding is not practicable. This site is served by existing overhead utility lines located across Bay Esplanade adjacent to the hotel under construction at 650 Bay Esplanade, where the applicant is unaware of any requirement to underground these existing overhead utilities across Bay Esplanade. All on-site utilities serving this development will be placed underground. Undergrounding of the off-site overhead utilities along the site frontage is impracticable for this site and should rather be part of an overall, coordinated undergrounding of overhead utilities project for all affected properties along Bay Esplanade, where property owners would be assessed the cost of such undergrounding. Due to economies of scale, such coordinated undergrounding would be less expensive on an overall basis rather than property owners bearing the full cost of piecemeal undergrounding on an individual basis. The visual effect of piecemeal undergrounding would also be unappealing. No other property redeveloped under the provisions of the CDC along Bay Esplanade, or neither any property redeveloped under the provisions of the CDC along Brightwater Drive, nor any small, individual property in the entire City has been required to underground similar overhead utilities for their parcel. While undergrounding the overhead utilities for 132 feet may be “feasible”, such would be burdensome financially to the applicant and unfairly penalizes properties that redevelop in accordance with Code provisions. Those properties that never redevelop would never be required to underground adjacent overhead utilities, adding to the visually unappealing visual aspect of overhead utilities. A coordinated approach deals with all affected properties on an “equal” basis and improves the visual appeal of the entire area for the general welfare of the public. A coordinated approach has been utilized on other areas of the beach, such as South Gulfview Boulevard and Coronado Drive. Landscaping – For developments in the Old Florida District of Beach by Design, the development requirements set forth in the Old Florida District supersede any conflicting standards in the Design 4 Guidelines of Beach by Design and the Community Development Code (CDC). The Old Florida District requires a 10-foot landscape buffer along the street frontage of Bay Esplanade. The proposal provides a 10-foot landscape buffer along the street frontage, in compliance with this Old Florida District requirement. It is important to note that there are otherwise no perimeter buffers required in the T District for this site, pursuant to CDC Section 3-1202.D. A six-foot high white vinyl fence is proposed along the east and west sides of the property, except within the waterfront visibility triangles where the fencing must be non-opaque. A one-foot landscape area is provided along the east and west property lines due to a required egress sidewalk from the stairwells, as well as the new six-foot high vinyl fence. The landscape area expands to five feet along the east and west property lines south of the required stairwell egress sidewalks. A landscape area of a minimum of five feet is provided along the south property line. Due to Fire Department requirements for access in the event of a fire, only sod is allowed along the east and west property lines. The landscape buffers along the east and west sides will be planted with palms, shrubs and ground covers, as allowed by the Fire Department, to soften the building facades and enhance the visual appeal of this site from the adjacent properties. Flexibility for setbacks required in the Old Florida District of Beach by Design allow for reduced setbacks where the proposal results in landscaping in excess of the minimum required. The only landscape buffer required is along the frontage of Bay Esplanade. Again, since there are no perimeter buffers required in the T District, the landscape areas along the east, west and south portions of the property could be planted with a minimum of grass. It is the applicant’s position that the landscaping provided along the street frontage, as well as the south portion of the site, are being planted in excess of the minimum required landscaping and therefore justifies the requested reductions to setbacks (also due to Fire Department access requirements that restrict landscaping to only sod along the east and west sides). Solid Waste – The proposal includes a trash room within the proposed building. Roll-out dumpsters will be moved to a dumpster staging area on trash collection days only. The trash staging area will not be fenced or walled. After the trash is collected by the City, the dumpsters will be returned to the trash room. Signage – Only attached signage is proposed with this submittal. All proposed signage will meet all applicable requirements of the CDC and Beach by Design. If necessary, a Comprehensive Sign Program will be submitted prior to signage permits. Compliance with the Standards of Section V.B.2 of Beach By Design for the Allocation of Hotel Units from the Hotel Density Reserve 1. Those properties and/or developments that have acquired density from the Destination Resort Density Pool are not eligible to have rooms allocated from the Reserve; Response: The subject property has not previously received, nor is not requesting such with this application, density from the Destination Resort Density Pool. Therefore, this criterion is not applicable to this proposal. 2. Those properties and/or developments that have had density transferred off to another property and/or development(s) through an approved Transfer of Development Rights (TDR) application by the City after December 31, 2007, are not eligible to have rooms allocated from the Reserve; 5 Response: The subject property has not had any density transferred to another property and/or development. Therefore, this proposal is in compliance with this criterion. 3. The Hotel Density Reserve shall not be used to render nonconforming density conforming; Response: The maximum density permissible for overnight accommodations in the Tourist (T) District is 50 units per acre. Based on this maximum permissible density of 50 units per acre and a lot area of 0.348 acre, this produces a maximum number of units of 17.4 units. The proposed Development Agreement requests 10 overnight accommodation units from the Hotel Density Reserve. The overall density of 27 overnight accommodation units will be 77.6 units per acre, which is less than the 90 units per acre permitted under the Hotel Density Reserve. Therefore, this proposal is in compliance with this criterion. 4. A maximum of 100 hotel rooms may be allocated from the Reserve to any development with a lot size less than 2.5 acres. Those developments with a lot size greater than or equal to 2.5 acres may use the Reserve to achieve a density of 90 hotel rooms per acre. However, in no instance shall the density of a parcel of land exceed 150 units per acre regardless of whether it has received benefit of transfers of development rights or units through a termination of status of nonconformity in addition to the Reserve, or not; Response: The subject site is comprised of two platted lots with a total lot area of 0.348 acre. . A total of 10 hotel units are requested to be allocated from the Hotel Density Reserve for this development. Therefore, this proposal is in compliance with this criterion. 5. Accessory uses inconsistent with amenities typical of a mid-priced hotel shall require compliance with the base FAR requirements of the Resort Facilities High (RFH) Future Land Use category; Response: Only a small fitness room, restrooms and small open-air bar/grill area are being provided on the roof level of this overnight accommodation use for use of the hotel guests. A roof-top pool is provided. Limited food service may be provided for guests only (not open to the general public). Storage lockers are being provided on hotel levels 3 and 4 to allow recurring guests to store beach chairs, umbrellas, skim boards and like personal items that will not be available to general hotel guests. Therefore, this proposal is in compliance with this criterion. 6. No hotel room allocated from the Reserve may be converted to a residential use (i.e. attached dwelling); Response: The applicant acknowledges the requirement of this criterion. Therefore, this proposal is in compliance with this criterion. 7. All units in a hotel receiving units from the Reserve shall be made available to the public as overnight transient hotel guests at all times through the required hotel reservation system. Occupancy in any hotel receiving units from the Reserve is limited to a term of less than one (1) month or thirty-one (31) consecutive days, whichever is less and units in such a hotel shall not be used as a primary or permanent residence; 6 Response: The applicant acknowledges and will comply with the requirement of this criterion for a hotel reservation system. Therefore, this proposal is in compliance with this criterion. 8. No hotel room in a hotel allocated units from the Reserve may have a full kitchen. Mini kitchens, defined as including reduced sized kitchen appliances, may be permitted; Response: Only kitchenettes will be provided in all units. Therefore, this proposal is in compliance with this criterion. 9. The maximum building heights of the various character districts cannot be increased to accommodate hotel rooms allocated from the Reserve; Response: The maximum building height in the Old Florida District for Overnight Accommodation uses is 75 feet. The proposed building height is 75 feet. Therefore, this proposal is in compliance with this criterion. 10. When both the allocation of hotel rooms from the Reserve and the transfer of development rights (TDR) are utilized as part of a development, only hotel rooms brought in to the project through the TDR process are eligible to be constructed above the otherwise maximum building height, but only provided that all TDR criteria are met; Response: The maximum building height in the Old Florida District for Overnight Accommodation uses is 75 feet. The proposed building height is 75 feet. There are no units being brought into the project through the TDR process, therefore this criterion is not applicable to this proposal. 11. A legally enforceable mandatory evacuation/closure covenant that the overnight accommodation use will be closed as soon as practicable after a hurricane watch that includes Clearwater Beach is posted by the National Hurricane Center; Response: The applicant will comply with this criterion prior to the issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy. Therefore, this proposal is in compliance with this criterion. 12. Access to overnight accommodation units must be provided through a lobby and internal corridors; Response: An office/registration desk and lobby/seating area is provided on the first level of the hotel units on the west side (Level 2) and all hotel units are accessed through internal corridors. Therefore, this proposal is in compliance with this criterion. 13. All hotel rooms obtained from the Reserve that are not constructed shall be returned to the Reserve; Response: The applicant acknowledges the requirement of this criterion. Therefore, this proposal is in compliance with this criterion. 14. The development shall comply with the Metropolitan Planning Organization’s (MPO) countywide approach to the application of concurrency management for transportation 7 facilities, and the transportation analysis conducted for the development shall include the following:  Recognition of standard data sources as established by the MPO;  Identification of level of service (LOS) standards for state and county roads as established by the MPO;  Utilization of proportional fair-share requirements consistent with Florida Statues and the MPO model ordinance;  Utilization of the MPO Traffic Impact Study Methodology; and  Recognition of the MPO designation of “Constrained Facilities” as set forth in the most current MPO Annual Level of Service Report. Response: A Traffic Impact Study has been submitted and is in compliance with adopted Levels of Service. Therefore, this proposal is in compliance with this criterion. 15. A reservation system shall be required as an integral part of the hotel use and there shall be a lobby/front desk area that must be operated as a typical lobby/front desk area for a hotel would be operated; and Response: An office/front desk for check-in of guests has been provided on the first level of the hotel rooms (Level 2), along with a lobby and seating. A reservation system will be utilized as part of this hotel. Therefore, this proposal is in compliance with this criterion. 16. The books and records pertaining to use of each hotel room shall be open for inspection by authorized representatives of the City, upon reasonable notice, in order to confirm compliance with these regulations as allowed by general law. Response: The applicant will comply with this criterion. Therefore, this proposal is in compliance with this criterion. 1 Beach by Design Narrative 1 Palazzo 657 & 663 Bay Esplanade Beach by Design Criteria Conformance with the Design Guidelines, intended to be administered in a flexible manner to achieve the highest quality built environment for Clearwater Beach, is discussed below. The Design Guidelines are not intended to serve as regulations requiring specific relief, except with regard to building height and spacing between buildings exceeding 100 feet in height. This project lies within the Old Florida District of Beach by Design, where the development requirements set forth in the Old Florida District supersede any conflicting standards in the Design Guidelines and the Community Development Code (CDC). Section A – Density Design Response: The maximum density permissible for overnight accommodations in the Tourist (T) District is 50 units per acre. Based on this maximum permissible density of 50 units per acre and a lot area of 0.348 acre, this produces a maximum number of units of 17.4 units. The proposed Development Agreement requests 10 overnight accommodation units from the Hotel Density Reserve. The overall density of 27 overnight accommodation units will be 77.6 units per acre, which is less than the 90 units per acre permitted under the Hotel Density Reserve. Therefore, this provision is supported by this proposal. Section B – Height and Separation Design Response: Section B.1 – Height The Design Guidelines provide that a height up to 150 feet may be permitted where additional density is allocated to the development either by TDRs, or via the Destination Resort Density Pool, or via the Hotel Density Reserve with location standards. However, the Old Florida District of Beach by Design restricts the height of an overnight accommodation use to a maximum of 75 feet. The proposal includes a building height of 75 feet to the top of roof deck from BFE for the flat roofed restrooms, fitness room, architectural grid pergola and tent structure on the roof level of the proposed building, where the proposed overnight accommodation building height does not exceed that permissible in the Old Florida District. Therefore, this Guideline is being met by this proposal. Section B.2 – Separation The Design Guidelines require that portions of any structures which exceed 100 feet in height are spaced at least 100 feet apart and also provide for overall separation requirements for all buildings which exceed 100 feet in height. The maximum building height in the Old Florida District for overnight accommodations is 75 feet and the proposal is for 75 feet. Therefore, this Guideline is not applicable to the proposal. Section B.3 – Floor Plate The Design Guidelines require the floorplate of any building exceeding 45 feet in height, with the exception of parking levels, be no greater than 25,000 square feet and also requires reduced floorplates exceeding 100 feet in height. The largest floorplate above 45 feet is approximately 6,500 square feet 2 and there is no portion of the building above 100 feet above BFE. Therefore, this Guideline is not applicable to the proposal. Section C – Design, Scale and Building Mass Design Response: Section C.1 – Building Dimensions The Design Guidelines require buildings with a footprint of greater than 5,000 square feet or a single dimension greater than 100 feet be constructed so that no more than the two of the three building dimensions in the vertical or horizontal planes are equal in length. The proposed building footprint is approximately 7,100 square feet. The proposed building is less than 100 feet in length along the east and west sides. The north and south sides exceed an overall building dimension of over 100 feet. The height is 75 feet. The proposal has been designed utilizing multiple dimensions to ensure that no more than two of the three building dimensions in the vertical or horizontal planes are equal in length. Therefore, this provision is supported by this proposal. Section C.2 – Building Plane Length The Design Guidelines require no plane or elevation to continue uninterrupted for greater than 100 feet without an offset of more than 100 feet. No portion of the proposed building façade continues for more than 100 feet, except for along the south building line where unenclosed balconies are proposed. The applicant desires the balconies to be uniform in depth to ensure all units have an equal depth of the balcony and for construction efficiencies. The building incorporates a series of articulation of the fenestration with various horizontal dimensions of the façade, where only the southern building facade exceeds 100 feet. Conformance with the Design Guidelines, intended to be administered in a flexible manner to achieve the highest quality built environment for Clearwater Beach, is discussed below. The Design Guidelines are not intended to serve as regulations requiring specific relief, except with regard to building height and spacing between buildings exceeding 100 feet in height. Therefore, it is the applicant’s position that this provision is supported by this proposal. This Design Guideline will be more fully addressed when a Flexible Development (FLD) application is submitted for Community Development Board (CDB) approval. Section C.3 – Windows and Building Decoration The Design Guidelines require at least 60 percent of any elevation to be covered with windows or architectural decoration. The front (north) elevation proposes 68% coverage, the east and west side elevations propose 23% coverage and the rear (south) elevation proposes 65% coverage. All elevations will comply with this guideline for glazing and building decoration and will be reviewed in more detail at the Flexible Development (FLD) application stage. Again, the Design Guidelines are not intended to serve as regulations requiring specific relief. Therefore, this provision is supported by this proposal. Section C.4 – Building Envelope The Design Guidelines provides that no more than 60 percent of the theoretical maximum building envelope located above 45 feet will be occupied by a building. The proposal is for six levels of units above ground level parking with a building height of 75 feet. That area above 45 feet represents less than 60 percent of theoretical maximum building envelope. Therefore, this provision is supported by this proposal. 3 Section C.5 – Building Height and Mass Correlation The Design Guidelines require that the height and mass of buildings be correlated to: (1) the dimensional aspects of the parcel and (2) adjacent public spaces such as streets and parks. The adjacent Bay Esplanade right-of-way width is 60 feet. The closest point of the building to the front (north) property line is 16 feet, which is stairwells and office/lobby/utility rooms. The enclosed hallway and veranda to the units for Levels 2 – 4 and the veranda for Level 5 is set back a minimum of 19 feet from the front property line. The interior corridors accessing units on Levels 5 – 7 is set back 31 feet from the front property line. Therefore, this provision is supported by this proposal. Section C.6 – Mix of Uses The Design Guidelines permit buildings to be designed for a vertical or horizontal mix of permitted uses. The proposal is for a single use: overnight accommodations. Therefore, this provision is supported by this proposal. Section D – Setbacks and Stepbacks Design Response: Section D.1 – Rights-of-way The Design Guidelines provide for the distances from structures to the edge of the right-of-way should be 12 feet along local streets. For developments in the Old Florida District of Beach by Design, the development requirements set forth in the Old Florida District supersede any conflicting standards in the Design Guidelines of Beach by Design and the Community Development Code (CDC). The minimum required setbacks in the Old Florida District include a front setback of 15 feet for all properties, except for properties fronting on Mandalay Avenue and a side and rear setback of 10 feet, except for properties fronting on Mandalay Avenue. Except for properties fronting on Mandalay Avenue, a maximum reduction of five feet from any required setback may be possible if the decreased setback results in an improved site plan, landscaping areas in excess of the minimum and/or improved design and appearance, a minimum five-foot side setback is provided to allow for unimpaired/unobstructed access to mechanical features of the building and setbacks may be decreased if additional setbacks or stepbacks are provided. The proposed building is designed at a 16-foot setback to the front (north) property line of Bay Esplanade. The proposal includes a reduction to the front (north) setback from 15 feet to 10 feet (to pavement). A proposed/required trash staging area is located at a zero setback to the front (north) property line. City staff has determined the setbacks required in the Old Florida District were for building and pavement setbacks, which do not apply to the necessary and required trash staging area. The site design provides adequate setbacks and landscape areas to meet design challenges. The Old Florida District requires a 10-foot landscape buffer along the street frontage of Bay Esplanade, which this proposal meets. The landscape buffer along the Bay Esplanade street frontage will be planted with palm and accent trees, shrubs and groundcovers to soften the facade of this building and enhance the visual appeal of this site to pedestrians and vehicular traffic, while respecting sight visibility triangle requirements. The proposed building will offer a coastal modern architectural design with multiple balconies and wide expanses of windows and doors that enhance the building appearance. Therefore, this provision is supported by this proposal. Section D.2 – Side and Rear Setbacks The Design Guidelines provide that, except for the side and rear setbacks set forth elsewhere in Beach by Design, no side or rear setback lines are recommended, except as may be required to comply with the City’s Fire Code. For developments in the Old Florida District of Beach by Design, the development 4 requirements set forth in the Old Florida District supersede any conflicting standards in the Design Guidelines of Beach by Design and the Community Development Code (CDC). The minimum required setbacks in the Old Florida District include a side and rear setback of 10 feet, except for properties fronting on Mandalay Avenue. Except for properties fronting on Mandalay Avenue, a maximum reduction of five feet from any required setback may be possible if the decreased setback results in an improved site plan, landscaping areas in excess of the minimum and/or improved design and appearance, a minimum five-foot side setback is provided to allow for unimpaired/unobstructed access to mechanical features of the building and setbacks may be decreased if additional stepbacks are provided. The proposal includes a reduction to the side (east) setback from 10 feet to five feet to the building stairwell and ground floor pavement, and to one-foot for a required egress sidewalk from the stairwell. The proposal includes a reduction to the side (west) setback from 10 feet to five feet (to pavement and the building stairwell) and to one-foot (to a required egress sidewalk from the stairwell). Finally, the proposal includes a 10-foot rear (south) setback to the building, with a reduction from 10 feet to five feet for the pavement only. The site design provides adequate setbacks and landscape areas to meet the design challenges of the site. A six-foot high white vinyl fence is proposed along the east and west sides of the property, except where within the waterfront visibility triangles where the fencing must be non-opaque. This parcel has an east/west orientation requiring a building stepback on the east or west side (Section 3.c of the Old Florida District of Beach by Design). A building stepback, based on the proposed building height above 35 feet above Base Flood Elevation (BFE), of 10.8 feet is required and provided on the west side, meeting the requirements of the Old Florida District. The reduction to the rear (south) setback is for parking spaces only on the ground level (a minimum of a five-foot setback). There are no perimeter buffers required in the T District for this site, pursuant to CDC Section 3-1202.D. However, the Old Florida District requires a 10-foot landscape buffer along Bay Esplanade, which is being provided with this proposal. A one-foot landscape area is provided along the east and west sides of the property where the required egress sidewalks are located, which expands to five feet to the south of the sidewalks. The areas south of the egress sidewalks will be planted with sod only to comply with Fire Department requirements for access). A five-foot wide landscape area is provided along the south property (which will be planted with palms, shrubs and groundcover. The north and south sides of the project will be planted with palms, shrubs and groundcovers to soften views of the building. Flexibility for setbacks required in the Old Florida District of Beach by Design allow for reduced setbacks where the proposal results in landscaping in excess of the minimum required. Again, the only landscape buffer required is along the frontage of Bay Esplanade and no perimeter buffers are required in the T District. The landscape areas along the east, west and south portions of the property could be planted with a minimum of grass. It is the applicant’s position that the landscaping provided along the street frontage, as well as the south portion of the site, are being planted in excess of the minimum required landscaping and therefore justifies the requested reductions to side and rear setbacks. The restrictions by the Fire Department to sod only for access along the east and west portions of the site are trumping the ability to provide additional landscaping in these areas. The proposed building will offer a coastal modern architectural design with multiple balconies and wide expanses of windows and doors that enhance the building appearance. Therefore, this provision is supported by this proposal. Section D.3 – Coronado Drive Setbacks and Stepbacks The Design Guidelines address setbacks and stepbacks along Coronado and Hamden Drives for projects utilizing the hotel density reserve to reduce upper story massing along the street and ensure a human scale street environment. The site does not front on Coronado or Hamden Drives. Therefore this Guideline is not applicable to the proposal. 5 Section E – Street-Level Facades Design Response: Section E.1 – Openness The Design Guidelines require at least 60 percent of the street level facades of buildings used for nonresidential purposes which abut a public street or pedestrian access way will include windows or doors that allow pedestrians to see into the building, or landscaped or hardscaped courtyards or plazas. In addition, parking structures should utilize architectural details and design elements such as false recessed windows, arches, planter boxes, metal grillwork, etc. instead of transparent alternatives. When a parking garage abuts a public road, it will be designed such that the function of the building is not readily apparent except at points of ingress and egress. Visually, much of the front area is dedicated to vehicular and pedestrian access. The site design incorporates a landscape area along Bay Esplanade to be planted with palms, accent trees and shrubs to visually enhance this pedestrian experience of this site. The ground floor parking structure will utilize architectural details, planter boxes and metal grillwork to enhance ground level views from Bay Esplanade, which will be more fully reviewed at the Flexible Development (FLD) approval process by the Community Development Board (CDB) and at the building permit stages. Therefore, this provision is supported by this proposal. Section E.2 – Window Coverage The Design Guidelines provide that window coverings or other opaque materials may cover no more than 10 percent of the area of any street-level window that fronts on a public right-of-way. There are no proposed windows on the ground level. Therefore, this provision is supported by this proposal. Section E.3 – Building Entrances The Design Guidelines require that building entrances should be aesthetically inviting and easily identified. The entrance to the overnight accommodations is at the elevator, which may be enhanced with an awning over the entrance. This will be more fully reviewed at the Flexible Development (FLD) approval process by the Community Development Board (CDB) and at the building permit stages. Therefore, this provision is supported by this proposal. Section F – Parking Areas Design Response: The Design Guidelines address issues related to parking areas and the screening of such. Visually, much of the front area is dedicated to vehicular and pedestrian access. The site design incorporates a landscape area along Bay Esplanade to be planted with palms, accent trees and shrubs to visually enhance this pedestrian experience of this site, while complying with the sight visibility triangle requirements. The ground floor parking structure will utilize architectural details, planter boxes and metal grillwork to enhance ground level views from Bay Esplanade, which will be more fully reviewed at the Flexible Development (FLD) approval process by the Community Development Board (CDB) and at the building permit stages. Therefore, this provision is supported by this proposal. Section G – Signage Design Response: 6 The Design Guidelines address issues related to signage. Only attached signage is anticipated with this development. A sign package is otherwise not included with this submittal. All proposed signage will meet all applicable requirements of the CDC and Beach by Design. If necessary, a Comprehensive Sign Program will be submitted prior to signage permits. Section H – Sidewalks Design Response: The Design Guidelines address issues related to sidewalks and provides that all sidewalks along arterials and retail streets should be at least 10 feet in width and requires palm trees with at least an eight-foot clear trunk to be planted at a maximum of 35-foot centers. There is no discussion regarding local streets. Bay Esplanade is a local street. The proposal will construct a five-foot wide sidewalk for the site frontage. Therefore this Guideline is not applicable to the proposal. Section I – Street Furniture and Bicycle Racks Design Response: The Design Guidelines address issues related to street furniture and bicycle racks. No street furniture is proposed with this development, as this is a local street. A bicycle rack is provided, located by the building entrance to the elevator, which will be more fully reviewed at the Flexible Development (FLD) approval process by the Community Development Board (CDB) and at the building permit stages. Therefore, this provision is supported by this proposal. Section J – Street Lighting Design Response: The Design Guidelines address issues related to street lighting. No additional street lighting is proposed with this application. Therefore, this Guidelie is not applicable to the proposal. Section K – Fountains Design Response: The Design Guidelines address issues related to fountains. No fountain is proposed with this development. Therefore, this Guideline is not applicable to the proposal. Section L – Materials and Color Design Response: The Design Guidelines address issues related to materials and color. The proposed overnight accommodations building offer a coastal modern architectural style. The finish materials and building colors of the building facade will support the beach theme and the Color Palate in the Design Guideline. Therefore, this provision is supported by this proposal.

(TA2016-12004) SUMMARY: Since 2006, a significant number of properties have gone through foreclosure in the City of Clearwater. At present, there are over 700 properties in active foreclosure and 256 owned by banks. Because many properties in the foreclosure process often become neglected and /or unsecured, they can have serious negative impacts on the surrounding neighborhood and create conditions which invite criminal activity and foster an unsafe and unhealthy environment for children. Due to the difficulty in determining the party responsible for maintenance during foreclosure, the Planning and Development Department is proposing the establishment of a foreclosure registry. Proposed Ordinance 8996-17 requires that within 10 days of the filing of a lis pendens the mortgagee shall register the property with the City and provide contact information for a local property management company responsible for maintaining the property. This information will enable the City to have direct contact with the party responsible for: ·the security and maintenance of the property; ·decisions concerning the abatement of nuisance conditions at the property; and ·expenditures to correct violations. Any unoccupied or vacant property subject to the ordinance must also maintain a visible posting on the structure with the name and all-hour contact number of the mortgagee’s local agent. A property registration and the associated $200 fee is valid for one year. If the mortgage on a registered property is sold or transferred, the new mortgagee is responsible for obtaining a new registration and paying the requisite fee. The Planning and Development Department has determined that the proposed text amendment to the Community Development Code is consistent with and furthers the goals, objectives and policies of the Comprehensive Plan and the Community Development Code as outlined in the staff report. The CDB reviewed the proposed text amendment at its meeting of January 17, 2017 and unanimously recommended approval of the amendment, with one change eliminating the required sign posting for occupied properties. The revision has been integrated into the attached ordinance.

CASE: TA2016-12004 ORDINANCE NO.: 8996-17 REQUEST: Review and recommendation to the City Council, of the establishment of a foreclosure property registry and associated fee. INITIATED BY: City of Clearwater, Planning and Development Department BACKGROUND: Since 2006, a total of 7,682 properties have gone through foreclosure in the City of Clearwater and a total of 4,391 have been repossessed by banks according to data collected by Community Champions. At present, there are 747 properties in active foreclosure and 256 owned by banks. While nationwide foreclosure activity has decreased, the month-over-month increase in October 2016 was the biggest monthly increase since August 2007. According to ATTOM Data Solutions October 2016 U.S. Foreclosure Market Report, Florida foreclosure activity is expected to increase in the coming months given “the October ruling by the state supreme court there that allows lenders to re-file a foreclosure action against a homeowner in default even if a previous foreclosure case against that homeowner was dismissed and that original foreclosure case was filed more than five years ago, outside the state’s statute of limitations for foreclosure.” Properties that are foreclosed, vacant or abandoned cause the City of Clearwater to suffer increased property maintenance concerns, declining home values, health and safety issues, and tax-revenue losses. These results have stressed the Planning and Development Department’s resources and have caused many properties to go unaddressed. ANALYSIS: In order to address the myriad of issues associated with properties in foreclosure, the Planning and Development Department is proposing the creation of a foreclosure property registry which will help Staff identify these properties and the parties responsible for them. This will enable the City to identify and monitor property concerns, increase property compliance and restore lost revenue. Planning & Development Department Community Development Code Text Amendment Code Compliance Division Community Development Board – January 17, 2017 TA2016-12004 – Page 2 Proposed Ordinance No. 8996-17 establishes a new division in the Community Development Code at Section 3-1505 entitled “Foreclosure Property Registry.” The purpose and intent of the Foreclosure Property Registry is to proactively identify blighted and deteriorated housing and ensure the rehabilitation or elimination of housing that does not meet minimum building or housing code standards and/or exterior or site maintenance standards. It is the goal of the ordinance to create a healthy, safe, and crime-free environment, and further preserve and enhance property values and quality of life for citizens. The Foreclosure Property Registry requires registration of properties by the mortgagee within 10 days of initiating the foreclosure process, within 15 days if found to be vacant by the City, or within 45 days for existing registrable properties following the effective date of the ordinance. The registration fee is $200, which must be paid annually until the property is sold or is occupied. All registrations must contain contact information for the party with authority to make decisions and who is responsible for the security and maintenance of the registered property, and this contact information is required to be posted at the property. Failure to register or comply with any part of the Foreclosure Property Registry is subject to enforcement by any means available to the City, most likely via issuance of a Notice to Appear or before the Municipal Code Enforcement Board. The Planning and Development Department intends to partner with a foreclosure registry administrator, which provides people, processes, and technology to administer the Foreclosure Property Registry. The administrator will assist the City in the following manner:  Collect the $200 fee established by the registry;  Proactively identify noncompliant registrations;  Establish responsible party relationships and confirms reliable available contacts;  Ensure quality of registration data;  Notify responsible parties regarding non-compliant properties within the City;  Escalate non-compliance concerns when necessary; and  Collaboratively and aggressively pursue registration noncompliance. For these services, the administrator will retain a portion of each registration fee and remit the remainder to the City. Proposed Ordinance No. 8996-17 restricts the use of those revenues to nuisance abatement purposes related to abandoned building, unsafe structure, unsecured properties and demolition.
