Overall, seagrasses cover 41,655 acres of bay bottom, a number that continues to surpass the 38,000 -acre goal set by TBEP, and sets a new record for the highest amount of seagrass documented since 1950. However, the aerial surveys that form the basis of the seagrass estimates were conducted during the winter of 2015 -2016 — before the torrential rains of last summer caused emergency sewer discharges into portions of the bay. The seagrass surveys are coordinated by scientists with the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD). Aerial photos are taken every two years in winter, when bay waters are clearest. 40 0 O 0 x 3 m 2 OU N1 a) m 0) Knle Seagrass Coverage Recovery Goal (38,000 acres) 111111 11 11111 The seagrass assessment is bolstered by results from monthly water quality sampling conducted by the Environmental Protection Commission of Hillsborough County.

Cretekos, Vice Mayor Bill Jonson, Councilmember Doreen Caudell, Councilmember Bob Cundiff and Councilmember Hoyt Hamilton Also Present: William B. Horne II – City Manager, Jill Silverboard – Deputy City Manager, Pamela K. Akin - City Attorney, Rosemarie Call - City Clerk, and Nicole Sprague – Official Records and Legislative Services Coordinator To provide continuity for research, items are listed in agenda order although not necessarily discussed in that order. Unapproved 1. Call to Order – Mayor Cretekos The meeting was called to order at 4:00 p.m. at City Hall. A moment of silence was observed for the passing of Councilmember Hamilton’s Mother, Jean Hamilton, and Former City Commissioner Dick Fitzgerald. 2. Citizens to be heard re items not on the agenda – None. 3. City Manager Reports 3.1 Recap of Imagine Clearwater: A Community Vision for the Downtown Clearwater Waterfront. A recap of the community vision will be provided by: Michael Delk, Planning and Development Director Seth Taylor, Community Redevelopment Agency Executive Director Denise Sanderson, Economic Development & Housing Director Economic Development and Housing Director Denise Sanderson said the City's economic strategic plan was adopted in 2011 and established the guiding principles that reflect the values of the community. The plan was organized around the core goals of pursuing tax base diversification, higher paying jobs and business vitality. The goals support land use, investment climate, business retention and expansion, business development and talent and place. Ms. Sanderson said quality of place is relevant to economic development because it strengthens the community's ability to attract Page 2 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 21, 2017 and retain talent. Communities offering a multitude of amenities are attracting today's skilled and talented workers. Ms. Sanderson said Imagine Clearwater envisions the quality of place amenities needed to attract talent. Community Redevelopment Agency Executive Director Seth Taylor said Imagine Clearwater was a community participatory planning effort. The plan finally connects Downtown to the waterfront, the City's greatest asset that is currently underutilized. The new waterfront park will create a stronger connection, both physically and socially, between the water's edge and Downtown. Mr. Taylor said Imagine Clearwater will stimulate economic growth and attract needed investments. The proposed park programming will make this a terrific place. Regarding the capital and ongoing maintenance costs, it is critical to redevelop the properties along Osceola Avenue as they will provide a revenue stream. Planning and Development Director Michael Delk said the City has an opportunity to inspire our community with this transformational Second Century Clearwater project but it is important to be willing and able to move forward. Imagine Clearwater is one way to engage the community into a partnership to build a shared vision for an active waterfront. Mr. Delk said it is not about the individual things, such as a waterfront restaurant, estuary, or retention pond, it is about the dignity of the space and the assertion that the entire community and the City investing in its waterfront and bluff. Staff requests that personal preferences and differences regarding initial implementation and alteration of the plan that was created in partnership with the community be set aside. Staff recommends moving forward the Imagine Clearwater Plan. Mr. Delk said staff can pursue one of the three referendums this Fall, with the special act and remaining referendums in 2018. The City Manager said staff is here to listen to Council's discussion on how Council will embrace the plan. Staff is requesting direction on the following: 1) Is this your plan? and 2) How much of this plan do you want to do? 3.2 Council Feedback City Manager William Horne will seek council direction regarding the plan. In response to questions, the City Attorney said it is up to Council to determine how many referendum questions would be presented to the electorate and when. Staff will know what needs to be brought to referendum once a plan has been adopted. The plan that is currently proposed, implementing from the Bluff down, can be done in one Page 3 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 21, 2017 referendum question in November. The City Attorney said the other referendum questions would be related to the properties Council may choose to sell or lease (at the Bluff level or below the Bluff) and could be drafted into two questions. A special act amendment is needed for the Coachman Park property if the bandshell pavilion is moved south of its current position in Coachman Park; the amendment cannot be pursued until Spring 2018, during the State Legislative Session. A special act amendment is not needed if the bandshell is moved north from its current location. As written, the special act prohibits the area south of the current bandshell location from being used for shows and carnivals of any kind. The City Attorney said a charter amendment is not needed. Staff was directed to provide historical data on past referendums affecting the Bluff. Eight individuals spoke in support, with one individual encouraging that Phase 2 of the plan be refined to include additional restaurant/waterfront restaurant use in the proposed estuary area. One individual spoke in support with a suggestion made that a trolley or tram be incorporated into the plan and that additional parking be placed between Drew and Cleveland Streets on Myrtle Avenue. One individual expressed concerns with losing momentum and suggested implementing components of the plan that can be done between the present and when the referendums and special act amendment are pursued. One spoke in opposition and encouraged event programming at Coachman Park that does not allow alcohol or incorporate barriers. In response to a concern, the City Attorney said the City advanced a special act amendment at the last State Legislative Session but it did not pass. Staff believes it is likely a special act amendment will pass the next time since there is now a plan to be implemented; it is also more likely to be approved if there is community support. In response to questions, Planning and Development Director Michael Delk said the current bandshell can be utilized during the implementation of Phase I. The City Manager said there is a transition period that must be followed during the plan implementation. It is clear that staff cannot undertake all plan components at the same time. Staff will look at how event programming can be maintained while pursuing the improvements. Councilmember Hamilton departed Chambers at 4:40 p.m. and returned at 4:43 p.m. Page 4 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 21, 2017 The City Attorney said if Council wishes to go in that direction, staff can prepare a resolution that would direct staff to move forward with preparing the implementation, amending the CRA Plan and the Comprehensive Plan for council adoption. Staff would then begin preparing the first referendum question, which is everything from the Bluff to the water. There was consensus for staff to draft a resolution. Discussion ensued with comments made that staff should pursue those elements of the plan that can move forward now and provide conceptual schematics for the public prior to the referendum. Councilmember Cundiff moved to adopt the Imagine Clearwater plan as presented and direct staff to prepare for funding any needed referendums and special act . The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. In response to questions, the City Attorney said adopting the plan authorizes staff to amend the Comprehensive Plan but Council still needs to approve the Comprehensive Plan amendments and the referendum questions. There are plan components that can be done and staff will identify those items in the implementation plan. The first referendum can be done in November. Council still has the flexibility to approve, or not, the items presented by staff. The City Attorney said even though it is unlikely the City would vacate Pierce Street, it does not mean the City Hall site and the adjacent parcel cannot be developed in conjunction with each other or not issue a Request for Proposals that includes both parcels. The City Attorney said one can build over rights-of-way or determine if there is another option other than keeping Pierce Street open and accessible. Once staff is given direction to move forward, the CRA can publish an RFP to identify the opportunities. The sale or lease of the City Hall site will require a referendum. Staff will be bringing forward a contract to purchase the parcel adjacent to City Hall at the next council meeting. The City Manager said the contract to purchase the property adjacent to City Hall will be presented to Council at the March 16 meeting. The City Attorney said staff may recommend that the CRA purchase the property, which may require a special CRA meeting; staff is working out the details. In response to questions, the City Attorney said the special act does not prohibit the City from removing the surface parking at the Harborview Page 5 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 21, 2017 Center or constructing the green or interactive fountain. The Special Act currently prohibits shows of any type on that property. The resolution will provide staff official direction to make the changes. The City Manager said staff is adding programming to the plan; he reminded Council that staff will make sure infrastructure is in place to support Coachman Park programming attendees. Programming must be approached in a safe and orderly fashion. 3.3 Council Discussion Council discussion regarding next steps. 4. Closing comments by Councilmembers (limited to 3 minutes) – None. 5.

Page 4 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 Public Hearings - Not before 6:00 PM 8. Administrative Public Hearings 8.1 Approve the annexation of an unaddressed parcel located on the west side of McMullen Booth Road approximately 1,054 feet south of East Enterprise Road, together with abutting west half of right-of-way of McMullen Booth Road; and pass Ordinance 9000-17 on first reading. (ANX2016-07023) This voluntary annexation petition involves one parcel of land totaling 4.522 acres. The parcel is currently vacant and is located on the west side of McMullen Booth Road approximately 1,054 feet south of East Enterprise Road. The applicant is requesting annexation in order to receive solid waste and water service from the City, and will be connected to city sewer once the property is developed. The property is contiguous to existing city boundaries along the south and west. The Development Review Committee is proposing that 0.573-acres of abutting McMullen Booth Road right-of-way also be annexed. The applicant has also submitted applications to annex a 2-acre parcel adjacent to the north (ANX2016-07024), to change the property’s Future Land Use Map designation of Residential Low (RL) to Residential Low Medium (RLM) (LUP2016-02002) and to rezone the property to the Medium Density Residential (MDR) District (City of Clearwater) (REZ2016-02002) upon annexation into the City of Clearwater. The Planning and Development Department determined that the proposed annexation is consistent with the provisions of Clearwater Community Development Code Section 4-604.E as follows: • Collection of solid waste, sanitary sewer and water service will be provided to the property by the City. The property is located within Police District III and service will be administered through the district headquarters located at 2851 N. McMullen Booth Road. Fire and emergency medical services will be provided to the property by Station 50 located at 2681 Countryside Boulevard. The City has adequate capacity to serve the property with water, sanitary sewer, solid waste, police, fire and EMS service. The proposed annexation will not have an adverse effect on public facilities and their levels of service; and • The proposed annexation is consistent with and promotes the following objectives of the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan: Objective A.6.4 Due to the built-out character of the City of Page 5 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 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. • The property proposed for annexation is contiguous to existing city boundaries along the south and west; therefore, the annexation is consistent with Florida Statutes Chapter 171.044. Councilmember Cundiff moved to approve the annexation of an unaddressed parcel located on the west side of McMullen Booth Road approximately 1,054 feet south of East Enterprise Road, together with abutting west half of right-of-way of McMullen Booth Road. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. Ordinance 9000-17 was presented and read by title only. Councilmember Hamilton moved to pass Ordinance 9000-17 on first reading. The motion was duly seconded and upon roll call, the vote was: Ayes: 5 - Mayor Cretekos, Vice Mayor Jonson, Councilmember Caudell, Councilmember Cundiff and Councilmember Hamilton 8.2 Terminate the Development Agreement between Ted and Maria Lenart, Trustees of Lenart Family Trust UTD December 20, 1991 (the property owner) and the City of Clearwater, which provided for the allocation of up to 69 units from the Hotel Density Reserve under Beach by Design, adopt Resolution 17-07 and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. (HDA2013-08007) No changes have been made to the Development Proposal presented at the March 2, 2017 council meeting. On December 4, 2013, a Development Agreement was made effective between the property owner and the City of Clearwater which provided 69 units from the Hotel Density Reserve (HDA2013-08007/Resolution 13-31). Section 6.1.3.2 of the Agreement provides that the Developer shall obtain appropriate site plan approvals pursuant to a Level One or Level Two development application, within three years from the effective date of this Agreement (Commencement Date) (December 4, 2016) in accordance with the provisions of the Code. Page 6 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 Finally, Section 10.1 of the Agreement provides that if the Developer's obligations set forth in this Agreement are not followed in a timely manner, as reasonably determined by the City Manager, after notice to the Developer and an opportunity to be heard, existing permits shall be administratively suspended and issuance of new permits suspended until the Developer has fulfilled its obligations. Failure to timely fulfill its obligations may serve as a basis for termination of this Agreement by the City, at the discretion of the City and after notice to the Developer and an opportunity for the Developer to be heard. As of December 4, 2016, site plans have not been submitted to the City for review, let alone approved as required, above. Therefore, the terms of the Development Agreement have not been met by the Developer. Pursuant to Section 13 of the Agreement, notices have been provided to: 1. Ted and Maria Lenart, Trustees of the Lenart Family Trust, u/ t/d/ December 20, 1991 8556 W. Winnemac, Noridge Chicago, IL 60656 2. Katherine E. Cole, Esq. Hill Ward Henderson 311 Park Place, Suite 240 Clearwater, FL 33759 Planning and Development Director Michael Delk said after speaking with the Applicant, staff does not believe the Applicant intends to maintain the DVA status. Vice Mayor Jonson moved to terminate the Development Agreement between Ted and Maria Lenart, Trustees of Lenart Family Trust UTD December 20, 1991 (the property owner) and the City of Clearwater, which provided for the allocation of up to 69 units from the Hotel Density Reserve under Beach by Design. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. Resolution 17-07 was presented and read by title only. Councilmember Caudell moved to adopt Resolution 17-07. The motion was duly seconded and upon roll call, the vote was: Ayes: 5 - Mayor Cretekos, Vice Mayor Jonson, Councilmember Caudell, Councilmember Cundiff and Councilmember Hamilton Page 7 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 8.3 Approve the annexation of 2425 McMullen Booth Road, together with abutting west half of right-of-way of McMullen Booth Road; and pass Ordinance 9001-17 on first reading. (ANX2016-07024) This voluntary annexation petition involves one parcel of land totaling 2 acres. The parcel is currently occupied by a single family home and is located on the west side of McMullen Booth Road approximately 836 feet south of East Enterprise Road. The applicant is requesting annexation in order to receive solid waste and water service from the City, and will be connected to city sewer when the property is redeveloped. The property is contiguous to existing city boundaries along the south and west (see companion case ANX2016-07023). The Development Review Committee is proposing that 0.496-acres of abutting McMullen Booth Road right-of-way also be annexed. The applicant has also submitted applications to change the property’s Future Land Use Map designation of Residential Low (RL) to Residential Low Medium (RLM) (LUP2016-02002) and to rezone the property to the Medium Density Residential (MDR) District (City of Clearwater) (REZ2016-02002) upon annexation into the City of Clearwater. The Planning and Development Department determined that the proposed annexation is consistent with the provisions of Clearwater Community Development Code Section 4-604.E as follows: • Collection of solid waste, sanitary sewer and water service will be provided to the property by the City. The property is located within Police District III and service will be administered through the district headquarters located at 2851 N. McMullen Booth Road. Fire and emergency medical services will be provided to the property by Station 50 located at 2681 Countryside Boulevard. The City has adequate capacity to serve the property with water, sanitary sewer, solid waste, police, fire and EMS service. The proposed annexation will not have an adverse effect on public facilities and their levels of service; and • The proposed annexation is consistent with and promotes the following objectives and policy of the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan: Objective A.6.4 Due to the built-out character of the City of Clearwater, compact urban development within the urban service area shall be promoted through application of the Clearwater Community Development Code. Objective A.7.2 Diversify and expand the City’s tax base through the annexation of a variety of land uses located within the Clearwater Planning Area. Policy A.7.2.3 Continue to process voluntary annexations for single-family residential properties upon request. • The property proposed for annexation is contiguous to existing city boundaries along the south and west; therefore, the annexation is Page 8 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 consistent with Florida Statutes Chapter 171.044. Councilmember Cundiff moved to approve the annexation of 2425 McMullen Booth Road, together with abutting west half of right-of-way of McMullen Booth Road. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. Ordinance 9001-17 was presented and read by title only. Councilmember Hamilton moved to pass Ordinance 9001-17 on first reading. The motion was duly seconded and upon roll call, the vote was: Ayes: 5 - Mayor Cretekos, Vice Mayor Jonson, Councilmember Caudell, Councilmember Cundiff and Councilmember Hamilton 8.4 Approve a Future Land Use Map Amendment from the Residential Low (RL) category to the Residential Low Medium (RLM) category for 2425 McMullen Booth Road and an unaddressed parcel on McMullen Booth Road; and pass Ordinance 9002-17 on first reading. (LUP2016-02002) This Future Land Use Map amendment involves two parcels of land totaling 6.522 acres located on the west side of McMullen Booth Road approximately 850 feet south of Enterprise Road East. One parcel is currently occupied by a single family residence, and the other parcel is currently vacant. The applicants are requesting to amend the properties’ Future Land Use Map category of Residential Low (RL) to the Residential Low Medium (RLM) category, indicating the intention to redevelop the site as an assisted living facility; however, no plans have been submitted at this time. The applicants have submitted petitions for annexation for two parcels (ANX2016-07023 and ANX2016-07024) and a Zoning Atlas Amendment (REZ2016-02002) which are being processed concurrently with this case. The proposed Residential Low Medium (RLM) category would permit development at a density of 10 dwelling units per acre, or a FAR of 0.50. The City’s Community Development Code allows residential or residential equivalent uses within the proposed Medium Density Residential (MDR) zoning district. The Residential Low Medium (RLM) future land use category requested is consistent with the surrounding future land use categories that exist in the vicinity of the subject property. The proposed Residential Low Medium (RLM) future land use category will allow the site to develop with residential uses at a higher density, providing a transition from the lower density residential properties to the south and west to the commercial properties to the north of the subject site at the Enterprise Road East intersection. The Planning and Development Department determined that the proposed Future Land Use Map amendment is consistent with the provisions of Clearwater Community Development Code as specified below: Page 9 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 • The proposed amendment is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and the Countywide Plan Rules. • The proposed amendment is compatible with the surrounding property and character of the neighborhood. • Sufficient public facilities are available to serve the property. • The proposed amendment will not have an adverse impact on the natural environment. • The proposed amendment will not have an adverse impact on the use of property in the immediate area. The Countywide Plan Map designation for the properties, as well as for the adjacent residential neighborhoods, is Residential Low Medium (RLM), and will remain so designated following this land use plan amendment. Therefore, in accordance with the Countywide Plan Rules, this land use plan amendment must be submitted to Forward Pinellas staff for administrative review and is subject to acceptance by Forward Pinellas, in its role as the Pinellas Planning Council. The application is a small-scale amendment so review and approval by the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity (Division of Community Planning) is not required. The Community Development Board reviewed this application at its February 21, 2017 public hearing and unanimously recommended approval. In response to questions, Planner Kyle Brotherton said the current Pinellas County future land use designation is Residential Low (RL), which is five dwelling units per acre. The proposed future land use is ten units per acre. The development agreement is being continued. The property immediately to the north is unincorporated and zoned RL and the property to the west is RL. Mr. Brotherton said the property immediately to the south is zoned Residential Urban (RU), which is 7.5 units per acre. The land use for the shopping center to the north is zoned Residential Office Retail (ROR). Applicant Claire Clements reviewed the request and said during the past year she has met with the neighborhoods and staff and filed an altered plan. She is now seeking a land use designation that is less intense than the surrounding Office designation. The countywide land use designation is RLM, which is the equivalent designation being requested today. If approved, the property will be in compliance with the countywide rules. There is a county stormwater pond in between the subject property and the ROR site. In response to questions, Ms. Clements said she is trying to address the main issues raised by the neighbors last year in the altered plan. The letters of support show the big issues raised by the neighbors and her commitment to address the concerns in the flexible development Page 10 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 application process (i.e., 30-ft. setbacks, one-story product, building height, etc.). Planning and Development Director Michael Delk said the Applicant has not submitted a site plan; staff understands that the Applicant is expressing her intent to provide increased setbacks. The development agreement may remain an option for those areas that exceed minimum code requirements; another option would be to place conditions for the development order after a Level 2 approval. Mr. Delk said in the latter option, any amendments to the conditions in the development order would require a noticed public hearing of the Community Development Board. It was stated that the development agreement is not being considered at this meeting. Two individuals expressed concerns with the proposal negatively impacting traffic. In response to a concern, Mr. Delk said notice of the Community Development Board meeting was provided pursuant to law. The City Clerk said notice was provided to property owners within a 250-ft. radius of the subject property. One individual suggested that the Applicant consider incorporating the neighbors' comments into the plan and expressed concerns that the proposal may negatively impact property values and quality of life. Ms. Clements said the development agreement request was continued because staff told her that the flexible development review process needed to occur first; the site plans, landscaping plans and elevations will be submitted as part of that process. Regarding traffic, Robert Pergolizzi, Gulfcoast Engineering, submitted a traffic study report for the original plan that showed 53 cars during peak hours; with the altered plan, the study showed 42 cars during evening peak hours. The countywide RLM land use has compensated for future traffic coming off the subject site onto McMullen Booth Road. Compared to residential, office or commercial, assisted living facilities are the lowest traffic generators. The proposal addresses the housing needs of elderly residents who do not want to move out of the neighborhood. Ms. Clements said the revised plan will not access the adjacent residential development; in addition to the 30-ft. setback, a wall is being constructed. In response to a question, Mr. Brotherton said the original Community Development Board meeting was scheduled for January 17, 2017 and continued to February 21, 2017. The City Clerk said if the hearing is continued to a date certain within 45 days, a notice is not reissued. The City Attorney said city code provides that since notice was given for the first meeting and notice of the continued date was provided at that meeting, re-noticing is not required; the Council follows the same process regarding public hearing items that are continued to a date certain within a Page 11 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 45-day period. It was stated that it would be preferred to have the development agreement in process before moving forward with the future land use. A concern was expressed that the proposal is requesting an increase from 5 to 10 units per acre. Vice Mayor Jonson moved to deny Item 8.4. The motion failed for lack of a second. Discussion ensued with comments made that the existing land use was established when the McMullen Booth Road was a 2-lane road and that growth and development in the area has occurred over time. It was stated that the proposal must still be reviewed by Forward Pinellas for acceptance. Councilmember Caudell moved to approve a Future Land Use Map Amendment from the Residential Low (RL) category to the Residential Low Medium (RLM) category for 2425 McMullen Booth Road and an unaddressed parcel on McMullen Booth Road. The motion was duly seconded and carried with the following vote: Ayes: 4 - Mayor Cretekos, Councilmember Caudell, Councilmember Cundiff and Councilmember Hamilton Nays: 1 - Vice Mayor Jonson Motion carried. Ordinance 9002-17 was presented and read by title only. Councilmember Cundiff moved to pass Ordinance 9002-17 on first reading. The motion was duly seconded and upon roll call, the vote was: Ayes: 4 - Mayor Cretekos, Councilmember Caudell, Councilmember Cundiff and Councilmember Hamilton Nays: 1 - Vice Mayor Jonson Motion carried. 8.5 Continue to a date uncertain: Deny a Development Agreement between HR Tampa Bay, LLC (the developer) and the City of Clearwater for property located at 2425 and unaddressed McMullen Booth Road; and reject Resolution 17-08. (DVA2016-09001) At their February 21, 2017 meeting, the Community Development Board continued the public hearing of this item to March 21, 2017. Planning and Development Director Michael Delk said the Applicant has Page 12 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 not provided anything beyond what is required by code. Staff recommends continuing Item 8.5 pending the Applicant's determination on how to move forward. In response to a question, the City Clerk said if the Applicant resubmits the development agreement application, public hearing notices will be reissued and re-advertised to property owners within a 250 ft. radius of the subject site. Councilmember Hamilton moved to continue Item 8.5 to a date uncertain. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. 9. Quasi-Judicial Public Hearings 9.1 Approve a Zoning Atlas Amendment from the A-E Agricultural Estate Residential District (Pinellas County) to the Medium Density Residential (MDR) District (City) for 2425 McMullen Booth Road and an unaddressed parcel on McMullen Booth Road; and pass Ordinance 9003-17 on first reading. (REZ2016-02002) This Zoning Atlas amendment involves two parcels of land totaling 6.522 acres located on the west side of McMullen Booth Road approximately 850 feet south of Enterprise Road East. One parcel is currently occupied by a single family residence, and the other parcel is currently vacant. The applicants are requesting to rezone the properties from A-E Agricultural Estate Residential District (Pinellas County) to the Medium Density Residential (MDR) District (City), indicating the intention to redevelop the site as an assisted living facility; however, no plans have been submitted at this time. The applicants have submitted petitions for annexation for two parcels (ANX2016-07023 and ANX2016-07024) and a Future Land Use Map amendment (LUP2016-02002) which are being processed concurrently with this case. The proposed Medium Density Residential (MDR) District will allow the site to be redeveloped with residential or residential equivalent uses, including an assisted living facility use. The Medium Density Residential (MDR) zoning district is consistent with the surrounding residential zoning districts that exist in the vicinity of the subject property. There is an existing pattern of residential and residential equivalent uses along McMullen Booth Road, which is designated as a Scenic/Noncommercial Corridor on the Countywide Scenic/Noncommercial Corridor Map. As such, the proposed amendment will allow development that is in character with the surrounding properties and neighborhood. The Planning and Development Department determined that the proposed Zoning Atlas amendment is consistent with the Clearwater Community Development Code as specified below: Page 13 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 • The proposed amendment is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and the Community Development Code. • The proposed amendment is compatible with the surrounding property and character of the neighborhood. • The available uses in the Medium Density Residential (MDR) District are compatible with the surrounding area. • The proposed amendment will not adversely burden public facilities, including the traffic-carrying capacities of streets, in an unreasonably or disproportionate manner; and • The proposed Medium Density Residential (MDR) District boundary is appropriately drawn in regard to location and classification of streets, ownership lines, existing improvements, and the natural environment. The Community Development Board reviewed this application at its February 21, 2017 public hearing and unanimously recommended approval. In response to questions, Planning and Development Director Michael Delk said Medium Density Residential (MDR) is consistent with the RLM land use. Applicant Claire Clements reviewed the request and said the MDR designation is compatible with the RLM designation. The MDR designation is being requested because it allows for an assisted living facility use as a flexible development use. The subject site is surrounded by office zoning; MDR is less intense than office use. One individual expressed concerns with increased traffic and impact it will have on residents accessing and exiting their neighborhoods. One individual questioned if neighborhood associations receive notice of upcoming hearings. The City Clerk said notice of the public hearing is provided to area neighborhood associations. In response to questions, Mr. Brotherton said Oak Brook Circle residents have access to Landmark Dr. and must use Enterprise Road to access McMullen Booth Road. Planning and Development Director Michael Delk said there is no access through the subject site to the Shady Oaks neighborhood. Applicant Claire Clements said the proposed project does not cut through the Shady Oaks neighborhood. Vice Mayor Jonson moved to approve a Zoning Atlas Amendment Page 14 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 from the A-E Agricultural Estate Residential District (Pinellas County) to the Medium Density Residential (MDR) District (City) for 2425 McMullen Booth Road and an unaddressed parcel on McMullen Booth Road. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. Ordinance 9003-17 was presented and read by title only. Councilmember Caudell moved to pass Ordinance 9003-17 on first reading. The motion was duly seconded and upon roll call, the vote was: Ayes: 5 - Mayor Cretekos, Vice Mayor Jonson, Councilmember Caudell, Councilmember Cundiff and Councilmember Hamilton 10. City Manager Reports 10.1 Amend the City’s fiscal year 2016/17 Operating and Capital Improvement Budgets at first quarter and pass Ordinances 9015-17 and 9016-17 on first reading. The fiscal year 2016/17 Operating and Capital Improvement Budgets were adopted in September 2016 by Ordinances 8946-16 and 8947-16. Section 2.521 of the City’s Code of Ordinances requires the City Manager to prepare a quarterly report detailing income, expenditure estimates, collections, the explanation of significant variances, as well as the financial status of all capital improvement projects. Councilmember Cundiff moved to amend the City’s fiscal year 2016/17 Operating and Capital Improvement Budgets at first quarter. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. Ordinance 9015-17 was presented and read by title only. Councilmember Hamilton moved to pass Ordinance 9015-17 on first reading. The motion was duly seconded and upon roll call, the vote was: Ayes: 5 - Mayor Cretekos, Vice Mayor Jonson, Councilmember Caudell, Councilmember Cundiff and Councilmember Hamilton Ordinance 9016-17 was presented and read by title only. Vice Mayor Jonson moved to pass Ordinance 9016-17 on first reading. The motion was duly seconded and upon roll call, the vote was: Ayes: 5 - Mayor Cretekos, Vice Mayor Jonson, Councilmember Caudell, Councilmember Cundiff and Councilmember Hamilton 10.2 Establish the intent to reimburse certain Water and Sewer project costs incurred with Page 15 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 proceeds from a future tax-exempt financing and adopt Resolution 17-10. A Water and Sewer System rate study that was completed in July of 2016 anticipated the need to do a new money bond issue in 2018 to finance the various Water and Sewer System capital projects planned at the time of the rate study. Approximately $78,000,000 of the planned Fiscal Year 2017 and Fiscal Year 2018 projects (Exhibit A) will be financed with the tax-exempt bonds to be issued in Fiscal Year 2018. Adoption of Resolution 17-10 establishes the City’s intent to be reimbursed from the proceeds of a bond issue in 2018 for up to $78,000,000 of capital project expenditures made prior to the issuance of the bonds. Councilmember Caudell moved to establish the intent to reimburse certain Water and Sewer project costs incurred with proceeds from a future tax-exempt financing. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. Resolution 17-10 was presented and read by title only. Councilmember Cundiff moved to adopt Resolution 17-10. The motion was duly seconded and upon roll call, the vote was: Ayes: 5 - Mayor Cretekos, Vice Mayor Jonson, Councilmember Caudell, Councilmember Cundiff and Councilmember Hamilton 10.3 Ratify and confirm the City Manager’s approval to provide additional funding in the amount of $107,750 to complete the Missouri Avenue Landscape Median project, to be funded by the transfer of $107,750 from general fund reserves at mid-year. The City Council approved a Fiscal Year 14-15 third quarter budget amendment allocating General Fund reserves in the amount of $190,000 to fund a Capital Improvement Project 315-93322, Missouri Avenue Median Beautification. On April 7, 2016, the City Council approved two separate Florida Department of Transportation grants in the amount of $100,000 and $99,500 to assist in the development of landscaping medians in the Missouri Avenue corridor from Court Street to Bayview Drive. On December 15, 2016, the City Council awarded two contracts to Smith Landscape Services, Inc. of Brooksville, Florida, to provide landscape improvements for Missouri Avenue medians from Bayview Drive to Kingsley Street for a cost of $152,454.50 and from Kingsley Street north to Court Street Page 16 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 for a cost of $177,309.00. Smith Landscape Services began excavating material from the medians as called for in the project and soon discovered that road base material was left under all of the medians and not removed when the medians were first installed. In order for the landscape material to survive, an additional 13 inches of road sub base material must be removed and new soil installed. The cost to do this additional work is $107,750. In order to stay on schedule and complete the project as soon as possible the City Manager approved providing the additional funds from general fund reserves at mid-year. Staff is working with FDOT in an attempt to secure additional funds for this project to help offset a portion or all of this additional work. APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: A mid-year budget amendment will provide a transfer of $107,750 from General Fund reserves to capital improvement project 315-93322, Missouri Avenue Median Beautification, to fund this increase. USE OF RESERVE FUNDS: Funding for this contract will be provided by a mid-year budget amendment allocating General Fund reserves in the amount of $107,750 to capital improvement project 93322, Missouri Avenue Median Beautification. Inclusive of this item if approved, a net total of $2,345,031 of General Fund reserves has been appropriated by Council to fund expenditures in the 2016/17 operating budget. The remaining balance in General Fund reserves is approximately $30.9 million, or 23.5% of the current General Fund operating budget. Councilmember Hamilton moved to ratify and confirm the City Manager’s approval to provide additional funding in the amount of $107,750 to complete the Missouri Avenue Landscape Median project, to be funded by the transfer of $107,750 from general fund reserves at mid-year. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. 10.4 Ratify and confirm Change Order 2 and Final to Dallas 1 Construction and Development of Thonotosassa, Florida in the amount of $9,450.00 for CR 193, Grove Circle and Belcher Area Sanitary Sewer Systems (13-0049-UT) and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. May 21, 2015, City Council awarded a $3,048,809.50 contract to Dallas 1 Construction and Development for the CR 193, Grove Circle and Belcher Area Page 17 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 Sanitary Sewer Systems (13-0049-UT). October 6, 2016, City Manager approved Administrative Change Order 1, reducing the contract by $731,031.20 for a new contract total of $2,317,778.30 to reflect actual quantities used in the field. Change Order 2 and Final provides for new sanitary sewer connections at Idlewild / The Mall, an area outside the original scope of the project requiring City Council approval. These connections needed to be installed quickly as part of the septic sewer project to avoid damage from potential sewage backup. Change order increase is $9,450 for a new contract value of $2,327,228.30. APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: 0315-96630-563800-535-000-0000 $9,450 Funding is available in Capital Improvement Project 0315-96630, Sanitary Sewer Extension to fund the change order. Vice Mayor Jonson moved to ratify and confirm Change Order 2 and Final to Dallas 1 Construction and Development of Thonotosassa, Florida in the amount of $9,450.00 for CR 193, Grove Circle and Belcher Area Sanitary Sewer Systems (13-0049-UT) and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. 10.5 Adopt Imagine Clearwater Waterfront/Bluff Master Plan, direct the City Manager to incorporate Imagine Clearwater into the Clearwater Downtown Redevelopment Plan, proceed with a development of a systematic plan and approach to implementation and adopt Resolution 17-13. Pursuant to the scope of services for HR&A, Sasaki, Kimley-Horn, and B2 Communication, a final draft Imagine Clearwater, Waterfront/Bluff master plan has been provided and accepted. It must now be determined when and how the final plan is to be implemented. For that purpose, staff would recommend the following for City Council consideration. The creation of a master plan for the downtown waterfront area was identified as a priority project by the Urban Land Institute (ULI) Advisory Services Panel during their study of Downtown Clearwater in June, 2014. Over the course of six months, the City engaged hundreds of Clearwater residents, business owners and other stakeholders who shared their broad visions and specific design and programming ideas for their future waterfront. In addition, the Page 18 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 City’s consultant team conducted over 40 interviews with local stakeholders, including developers, real estate brokers, small business owners, and Downtown property owner. A group of 18 Clearwater residents active in resident affairs, the local business community, local institutions and community organizations served as a stakeholder committee to provide a sounding board and reflection on the publicly generated plan. Four key strategies underpin the recommendation of Imagine Clearwater: the waterfront must be anchored by a dynamic new open space; Coachman Park needs an active edge; an improved Osceola should complement Cleveland Street; and access to the site should incorporate all modes. Also, an Action Plan provides a series of strategic implementation recommendations to serve as a starting point for the City and its partners to refine and advance. It is possible that the plan can be accomplished with community support by way of three referendums to provide for various approvals needed for public use and park activation with active edge mixed uses and development opportunities. Also, a special act of the legislature is needed to accommodate the performance area green, final pavilion location, and activities, which are proposed as part of the reconfiguration and expansion of Coachman Park. In the short term, various programming, as well as design and implementation for various improvements previously authorized by the public through successful referendums may occur. For these and other reasons, it is recommended that City Council adopt the proposed resolution authorizing and directing the administration to proceed with development of a specific implementation plan. In response to questions, Planning and Development Director Michael Delk said not every component of Imagine Clearwater needs to be fully incorporated into the CRA plan; those items that are CRA funded must be incorporated into the plan. The rewrite of design is occurring as part of the reorganization of the plan. Public outreach included 40 individual interviews with key stakeholders, 7 interactive community workshops, and community stakeholder meetings. Mr. Delk said that a diverse group of active citizens was engaged in the development of Imagine Clearwater. One individual questioned if Imagine Clearwater included aerial transit. Mr. Delk said Imagine Clearwater did not incorporate aerial transit infrastructure. One individual expressed concern that there was no recruitment or public application for the community stakeholders group and supported future programming at Coachman Park that was free to the public and alcohol free. Page 19 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 One individual spoke in support. One individual questioned if the names of the individuals who served on the community stakeholders group were available. Mr. Delk said the list of names is available in Planning and Development and staff could provide that information. In response to questions, Mr. Delk said the consultants provided an overview of the public input/comments received at two public meetings. Staff posted online the work output provided by the consultant as received. Mr. Delk said public comment was received via the website and at public meetings. The consultant found the four key strategies to be common themes that residents commented on and should drive the thinking behind how to implement Imagine Clearwater. One individual expressed concern with the proposed cost to implement Imagine Clearwater, opposed providing downtown retail control to the Church of Scientology (Church) and expressed concerns with recent meetings held with Church representatives that were not in the Sunshine. Councilmember Caudell moved to adopt Imagine Clearwater Waterfront/Bluff Master Plan, direct the City Manager to incorporate Imagine Clearwater into the Clearwater Downtown Redevelopment Plan, proceed with a development of a systematic plan and approach to implementation. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. Resolution 17-13 was presented and read by title only. Vice Mayor Jonson moved to amend Section 1 to read as follows, "The City Council affirms its approval of Imagine Clearwater A Community Vision for the Downtown Clearwater Waterfront and directs the City Manager to proceed with plan implementation and integrate the required plan elements into the Clearwater Downtown Redevelopment Plan and proceed with plan implementation." The motion was duly seconded. In response to questions, Mr. Delk said staff would not anticipate placing the entire Imagine Clearwater document into the redevelopment plan but only those that are appropriate for CRA implementation. One individual questioned if a nonprofit will be obtained to manage the activities in the park. It was stated there are numerous council meetings to be held regarding Page 20 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 the recommendations presented in Imagine Clearwater and those recommendations that will be part of the plan implementation. Upon the vote being taken, the motion carried with the following vote: Ayes: 4 - Mayor Cretekos, Vice Mayor Jonson, Councilmember Cundiff and Councilmember Hamilton Nays: 1 - Councilmember Caudell Motion Carried. Councilmember Cundiff moved to adopt Resolution 17-13 as amended. The motion was duly seconded and upon roll call, the vote was: Ayes: 5 - Mayor Cretekos, Vice Mayor Jonson, Councilmember Caudell, Councilmember Cundiff and Councilmember Hamilton 10.6 Continue to April 20, 2017: Approve a Contract for Purchase of Real Property with the Clearwater Marine Aquarium for 301 Pierce Street in the amount of $4,250,000.00 and total expenditures not to exceed $4,265,000; approve a lease agreement for the same real property to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium commencing March 2017; and authorize the appropriate officials to execute all documents necessary to complete the transactions. The Clearwater Marine Aquarium (CMA) currently owns the property at 301 Pierce Street, which it purchased in anticipation of building a new facility on that property and the property currently occupied by City Hall. CMA ultimately decided to make improvements on its current facility at 249 Windward Passage instead of constructing a new facility. The property is located atop the Clearwater bluff and is vacant with a total land area of 60,325 square feet (1.38 acres). The City currently owns the adjacent land to the west fronting Clearwater Harbor. This acquisition will result in a contiguous city-owned tract of 91,705 square feet (2.1 acres). If acquired, the City will own all property fronting the north and south sides of Pierce Street between Osceola Avenue and the waterfront. This is a unique opportunity as this property is the only significant, developable land along the bluff that is available for purchase. The Imagine Clearwater Master Plan identifies this property as one that the City should ensure contributes to Downtown activation by incorporating uses that attract residents and visitors to the area, as well as supporting the long-term growth of the Downtown tax-base, including critical funds to support CRA activities and potentially park operations. Page 21 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 The City would now like to purchase the property to facilitate redevelopment of downtown. CMA would like to lease the parking lot section of the property back for $1.00 per month, commencing upon closing, which is anticipated to be no later than March 31, 2017, on a month to month basis to use as a parking facility during the construction of its improvements at its current facility, specifically the Parking Garage as approved by the Community Development Board on January 19, 2016. Two independent appraisals were performed on the property. James Millspaugh and Associates, Inc. valued the property at $4,365,000 with a valuation date of March 23, 2015. Hupp Realty Advisors, Inc. valued the property at $2,910,000 with a valuation date of April 2, 2015. The appraisals are being updated and current figures will be available by March 16, 2017 and will be presented at that Council meeting. Acquisition Costs: Purchase Price $4,250,000 Closing Costs $15,000 TOTAL $4,265,000 APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: A mid-year budget amendment will increase cost code 010-07000-560100 (Land Purchase City Use) by $4,265,000 to be funded with an allocation of General Fund reserves. USE OF RESERVE FUNDS: Funding will be provided by a mid-year budget amendment allocating General Fund reserves in the amount of $4,265,000 to fund this land purchase. Inclusive of this item if approved, a net total of $6,610,031 of General Fund reserves has been appropriated by Council to fund expenditures in the 2016/17 operating budget. The remaining balance in General Fund reserves is approximately $26.6 million, or 20.2% of the current General Fund operating budget. The City Attorney said the City received the proposed contract on March 1, 2017 and Council directed staff to bring it forward as quickly as possible. The item was brought forward to be scheduled for tonight's meeting. Florida Statute 166.045 requires a 30-day notice of the meeting at which the contract will be discussed because the statutory exemption from public records was instituted during the time the contract was being considered previously. One individual questioned if the property would be purchased for aerial transit. Page 22 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 One individual expressed concerns with the Church of Scientology. Two individuals spoke in support and recommended that the process be transparent. One individual questioned why the agenda item was continued to April 20. The City Attorney said staff received a public records request regarding this agenda item and realized that Florida Statute 166.045 was exercised. She did not recall that the provision was used and recommended to Council to provide the required 30-day notice at this meeting. One individual said one cannot see the ocean from the subject site because of the Memorial Causeway Bridge. One individual spoke in support and questioned if the property would be leased to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium. The City Attorney said the City will lease the property to the CMA for a period of time, with six months notice to terminate. The CMA will continue to use the site for parking while they complete their construction on Island Estates. Discussion ensued with comments made that the recent meetings with the Church of Scientology was to gather information on retail strategies, any council decision would be made in the public, both sides must be willing to communicate if a potential partnership is intended, councilmembers represent all Clearwater residents, and that 10-12% of the City's electorate are Scientologists and should not be excluded because one does not agree with the religion. Councilmember Hamilton moved to continue Item 10.6 to April 20, 2017. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. 11. City Attorney Reports – None. 12. Closing comments by Councilmembers (limited to 3 minutes) Councilmember Caudell said there are a lot of things going on in Clearwater and in Pinellas County and encouraged all to get involved; Council needs to hear from the citizens so the city can know what direction people want to go in. She encouraged all to be engaged and help develop this beautiful city. Page 23 City of Clearwater Draft City Council Meeting Minutes March 16, 2017 Vice Mayor Jonson said the Florida legislature is in session now and they are considering several things right now that may reduce the City’s ability to respond to the citizens, for instance, eliminating Community Redevelopment Agencies, City’s ability to regulate roadside wireless transponder that may be on private property, as well as prohibit the City’s ability to limit short term rentals in residential communities. He said former Commissioner Col. Richard Fitzgerald, who passed away a couple weeks ago, was one of the prime movers between the Countryside Recreation Center and the Countryside Library. While serving on the Mayor’s Council, he was tasked with developing a countywide sign code, which has contributed to the beauty of Pinellas County. Councilmember Cundiff said the 400th home by Habitat for Humanity will be dedicated next week. The Clearwater chapter of the Son’s of the American Revolution will be donating an outdoor wall-attached flag for every home dedicated. He said because of the First Amendment, American’s enjoy the right to free speech and freedom of religion. 13. Closing Comments by Mayor Mayor Cretekos reviewed recent and upcoming events. 14.

The drawings which accompany the specifications are herein designated contract drawings and are for the purpose of illustrating the general character and extent of the work and are subject to such modifications and elaboration’s by the Owner and Engineer as may be found necessary or advisable, either before or during the prosecution of the work, and the Contractor shall conform to and abide by whatever supplementary drawings and explanations that may be furnished by the Engineer for the purpose of illustrating the work. The Engineer shall decide as to the true meaning or intention of any portion of the specifications and drawings where the same may be found unclear or in conflict.

SUBCONTRACTS. The Contractor shall not assign or sublet the whole or any part of the work without the written consent of the Owner and without the written approval by the Owner of the specific party to whom it is proposed to assign or sublet the same.

If any part of the Contractor's work depends for proper execution or results upon the work of any other contractor, the Contractor shall inspect and promptly report to the Owner any defects in such work that render it unsuitable for such proper execution and results. His failure to so inspect and report shall constitute an acceptance of the other contractor's work as fit and proper for the reception of his work except as to defects which may develop in the other contractor's work after the execution of his work. To insure the proper execution of his subsequent work, the Contractor shall measure work already in place and shall at once report to the Owner any discrepancy between the executed work and the drawings.

Information concerning the general condition of the project site existing at the time of bidding is presented in the plans and specifications solely for information and convenience in describing the work to be accomplished and the use by the Contractor of such information cannot in any way relieve the Contractor of his responsibilities as outlined herein for determining the actual conditions existing at the site and for basing his bid price upon such conditions. No verbal agreement or conversation with any officer, agent, employee of the Owner, or the Engineer, either before or after the execution of this Contract, shall affect or modify any of the terms or obligations herein contained.

The bidder is assumed to have made himself familiar with all Federal, State, Local, and Municipal laws, ordinances, rules, and regulations which in any manner affect those engaged or employed in the work, or the materials or equipment used in or upon the work, or in any way affect the work and no plea of misunderstanding will be considered an excuse for the ignorance thereof. The Contractor shall be licensed and competent in the required discipline of installing gas mains, services, underground customer piping systems and related gas meter connections. 13.

The Contractor shall direct specific attention in writing to revisions on resubmitted shop drawings other than the corrections called for by the Owner on previous submissions. Contractor's stamp of approval on any shop drawings shall constitute a representation to the Owner that the Contractor has either verified all quantities, dimensions, field construction criteria, materials, catalog numbers, and similar data or he assumes full responsibility for doing so and that he has reviewed or coordinated each shop drawing with the requirements of the work and the Contract documents. The shop drawings in no way become a part of the Contract documents but are furnished for informational purposes only.

Consult with and advise the Owner, act as the Owner's representative at the project site, issue all instructions of the Owner to the Contractor and prepare routine Change Orders as required. D. Based on his on-site observations as an experienced and qualified design professional and on his review of the Contractor's applications for payment, determine the amount owing to the Contractor and approve in writing payment to the Contractors in such amounts; such approvals of payment to constitute a representation to the Owner, based on such observations and review of the data comprising such applications, that the work has progressed to the point indicated and that, to the best of his knowledge, information and belief, the quality of the work is in accordance with the Contract Documents, subject to the results of any subsequent test called for in the Contract Documents and any qualifications stated in his approval.

EXAMINATION OF THE WORK. The authority and duties of the resident project representatives when provided and authorized as employees of the Engineer and when the employment thereof is authorized and paid by the Owner, are limited to examining the material furnished, observing the work done and reporting their findings to the Engineer. The Engineer does not underwrite, guarantee or insure the work done by the Contractor. It is the Contractor's responsibility to perform the work in all details in accordance with the Contract Documents, and the Engineer shall never be responsible or liable to either the Owner or the Contractor or any other party by reason of the Contractor's failure to do so. Failure by the Engineer or by any project representative or other representative of the Owner engaged in on site observation to discover defects or deficiencies in the work of the Contractor shall never, under any circumstances, relieve the Contractor from his responsibility therefore to the Owner, or subject the Engineer to any liability to the Owner, the Contractor, or any other party for any such defect or deficiency. Page 8 of 10 Project representatives shall have no authority to permit deviation from or to modify any of the provisions of the Drawings or Specifications without the written permission or instruction of the Engineer, or to delay the Contractor by failure to observe the materials and work with reasonable promptness.

The Owner's instructions, orders, directions and/or orders to the Contractor shall be given only through the Engineer, or his employees. The Engineer may only advise the Contractor when it appears to the Engineer that the work and/or materials do not conform to the requirements of the Contract Documents, including the Drawings and Specifications. The payment of any compensation, irrespective of its character or form, or the giving of any gratuity, or the granting or any valuable favor, directly or indirectly, by the Contractor to any project representative, is strictly prohibited, and any such act on the part of the Contractor will constitute a violation of the contract. If the Contract Documents, laws, ordinances, rules, regulations or orders of any public authority having jurisdiction require any work to specifically be inspected, tested, or approved by someone other than the Contractor, the Contractor will give the Engineer timely notice of readiness therefore. The Contractor will furnish the Engineer the required certificates of inspection, testing or approval. All such tests will be in accordance with the methods prescribed by the American Society for Testing and Materials, or such other applicable organization as may be required by law or the Contract Documents. If any such work required so to be inspected, tested or approved is covered without written approval of the Engineer, it must, if requested by the Engineer, be uncovered for observation at the Contractor's expense. The cost of all such inspections, tests and approvals shall be borne by the Contractor unless otherwise provided. 19. PROTECTION OF WORK AND PROPERTY. The Contractor shall continuously maintain adequate protection of all his work from damage and shall protect the Owner's property from injury or loss arising in connection with this Contract.

He shall adequately protect adjacent property as provided by law and the Contract Documents.

USE OF COMPLETED PORTIONS. The Owner shall have the right to take possession of and use any completed or partially completed portions of the work, notwithstanding that the time for completing the entire work or such portions may not have expired but such taking possession and use shall not be deemed an acceptance of any work not completed in accordance with the Contract Documents. If such prior use increases the cost of or delays the work, the Contractor shall be entitled to such extra compensation, or extension of time, or both, as the Owner may determine. 21. CHANGES IN THE WORK. If for any reason it be deemed necessary in the opinion of the Owner to make any variations in the scope or nature of the work, which variations increase or decrease the quantities of the work specified, or change the location to an extent not unreasonably affecting the conditions of the work, and further interpreted by the Owner as involving no classes of work other than those called for by this contract, the Contractor shall, upon written order from the Owner to that effect, make such variations. If such variations diminish the quantity of the work to be done, no claim for damages or for anticipated profits on the work that may be dispensed with shall there by accrue to the Contractor, and the value of the work dispensed with will not be included in any payments made to the Contractor. If such variations increase the amount of the work, the value of such increase shall be determined and fixed by the Owner in accordance with the quantity of such work actually done, and at the unit prices stipulated in the contract. All major changes will be issued in a standard form which will contain a description of the work involved in the change, a reference to the proper construction drawings or revised drawings and will not be effective until signed by the Owner and Contractor. Such alterations or changes as are mentioned in this section shall not vitiate or annul the obligations of the contract or the agreement for the work. Should, in the opinion of the Owner, any contemplated change in the quantities of the work, or alterations thereof, materially affect the character of the work, or any part thereof, or materially affect the compensation for the same, then the work shall be classed as extra work. 22. EXTRA WORK / INCREASED COMPENSATION. The Owner may at any time, by a written order, without notice to the Sureties, and without invalidating the contract, require the performance of such extra work or substantial changes in the work as it may find necessary or desirable. The amount of compensation to be paid to the Contractor for any extra work, as ordered, shall be determined as follows: (a) By unit prices named in contract and subsequently agreed upon. (b) By a lump sum mutually agreed upon by the Owner and the Contractor; or (c) If no such unit prices are set forth and if the parties cannot agree upon a lump sum, then by the actual net cost in money to the Contractor of the wages of applied labor (including premiums for Worker's Compensation Insurance, and Social Security taxes); plus twenty per centum (20%) as compensation for all items of profit, administration, overhead, superintendence, insurance other than Worker's Compensation Insurance, materials used in temporary structures, allowances made by the Contractor to subcontractors, additional premiums upon the performance bond of the Contractor and the use of small tools; plus the net cost to the Contractor for the materials required in the extra work; plus the cost of rental for plant equipment (other than small tools) required and approved for the extra work. 23. DEFECTIVE WORK OR MATERIALS. If at any time any materials or workmanship should be discovered which do not comply with the Page 10 of 10 plans, specifications and contract drawings, such defective work and/or material shall immediately be removed or corrected by the Contractor when notified to do so by the Owner, and such defects shall be replaced or corrected at the Contractor's expense. Any work or materials condemned by the Owner as unsuitable, potentially unsafe or improperly done shall be removed and repaired or otherwise remedied by replacement, as the Owner may require. Any defective work regulated by an established OQ covered task shall require the individual, responsible for such failure, to be OQ recertified prior to performing such covered task. If the Contractor shall neglect or refuse to remove or replace defective work or materials within seven (7) days from the date of the notice from the Owner to do so, then the Owner may remove or cause the same to be removed and satisfactorily replaced by contract or otherwise, as they may deem expedient, and they may and are empowered, to charge the expense thereof to the Contractor. The expense so charged will be deducted and paid by the Owner out of such monies as are or may become due under this agreement, or if such monies are not sufficient to meet said expense, the additional monies shall be furnished by the Contractor, and if he refuses or neglects to provide the necessary monies they shall be provided by his Surety.

Where wood sheeting or certain designs of steel sheeting are used, the sheeting shall be cut off at a level 2-feet above the top of the installed pipe and that portion below that level shall be left in place. If interlocking steel sheeting is used, it may be removed providing removal can be accomplished without disturbing the bedding, pipe or alignment of the pipe. Any damage to the sheeting shall be cause for rejection of the affected portion of the work. Not more than 100-feet of trench shall be opened ahead of pipe laying operations at one time unless the Owner’s Representative approves a greater length of open trench. C. In areas where trench widths are not limited by right-of-way, and/or easement widths, property line restrictions, existing adjacent improvements, including pavements, structures and other utilities, and maintenance of traffic, the trench sides may be sloped to a stable angle of repose of the excavated material. A substantially and safely constructed movable trench box shield, "box" or "mole" may be used in place of sheeting when the trench is opened immediately ahead of the shield and closed immediately behind the shield as pipe laying proceeds inside the shield. D. Ladders or steps shall be provided for and used by workmen to enter and leave trenches. E. Pipe trenches for utility lines shall be excavated to a width within the limits of the top of the pipe and the trench bottom so as to provide a clearance on each side of the pipe barrel, measured to the face of the excavation or sheeting, if used, of 8-inches to 12-inches. Where the pipe size exceeds 12-inches, the clearance shall be from 12-inches to 18-inches. All pipe trenches shall be excavated to a level 8-inches below the outside bottom of the proposed pipe barrel. F. Excavation for appurtenances shall be sufficient to provide a clearance between their outer surfaces and the face of the excavation or sheeting, if used, of not less than 12-inches. Manhole excavations shall be carried to sufficient depth to permit their construction on the undisturbed bottom of the excavation. G. Materials removed from the trenches shall be stored and disposed of in such a manner that they will not interfere unduly with traffic on public streets and sidewalks and they shall not be placed on private property. In congested areas, such materials as cannot be stored adjacent to the trench or used immediately as backfill shall be removed to convenient places of storage. H. All materials suitable for use as backfill shall be hauled to and used in areas where not enough suitable material is available from the excavation. I. Suitable material in excess of backfill requirements and all unsuitable or contaminated material shall become the property of the Contractor and shall be removed from the work and disposed of by the Contractor at his expense. J. Excess suitable material shall remain the property of the Owner and shall be disposed of within the limits of the project as directed by the Owner's Representative. The disposal area shall be finish graded upon completion of the work. K. Any unsafe excavation condition observed by the CGS inspector shall result in the immediate stoppage of the work operation, until the unsafe condition is mitigated Page 8 of 30 T.25 REMOVAL OF WATER A. It is a basic requirement of these specifications that excavations shall be free from water before pipe or structures are installed. However, it is realized that in certain sections of the work this cannot be accomplished economically and the Contractor may elect to use the Alternate Method of Construction, when approved by CGS. B. The Contractor shall provide all necessary pumps, underdrains, well-point systems, and other means for removing water from trenches and other parts of the work. The Contractor shall continue dewatering operations until the backfill has progressed to a sufficient depth over the pipe to prevent flotation or movement of the pipe in the trench and so that it is above the natural water table. C. Water from the trenches and excavation shall be disposed of in such a manner as will not cause injury to public health, to public or private property, to the work completed or in progress, to the surface of the streets, or cause any interference with the use of the same by the public. CGS is not responsible for, or the disposal of, or any associated costs relating to the disposal of any contaminated ground water. The Contractor shall submit his proposed methods of handling trench water and locations at which the water will be disposed of to the Owner’s Representative for approval and shall receive approval before starting the excavation. T.26 PIPE BEDDING A. As described above, all pipe trenches shall be excavated to a level 8-inches below the outside bottom of the proposed pipe barrel. The resulting excavation shall be backfilled with approved pipe bedding materials that are free of rock, sharp objects and debris, up to the level of the lower one-third of the proposed pipe barrel. This backfill shall be tamped and compacted to provide a proper bedding for the pipe and shall then be shaped to receive the pipe. Bedding shall be provided under the branch of all fittings to furnish adequate support and bearing under the fitting. B. Any excavation below the levels required for installation of the pipe bedding, except for "Additional Excavation", as hereinafter specified, shall be backfilled with approved bedding material, tamped, compacted and shaped to provide proper support for the proposed pipe, at no additional cost to the Owner's Representative. T.27 TRENCH STABILIZATION A. No claim for extras or additional payment will be considered for cost incurred in the stabilization of trench bottoms, which are rendered soft or unstable as a result of construction methods, such as improper or inadequate sheeting, dewatering or other causes. In no event shall pipe be installed when such conditions exist and the Contractor shall correct such conditions so as to provide proper bedding or foundations for the proposed installation at no additional cost to the Owner. T.28 BACKFILL A. Backfilling of utility trenches will not be allowed until the work has been approved by the Owner's Representative, pressure tested if required, and the Owner's Representative indicates that backfilling may proceed. Any work which is covered or concealed without the knowledge and consent of the Owner's Representative shall be uncovered or exposed for inspection at no cost to the Owner's Representative. Partial backfill may be made to restrain the pipe during pressure testing. Sight tubes will be installed on underground house piping installations as appropriate intervals for inspection. Page 9 of 30 B. Backfill material shall be non-cohesive, non-plastic material free of all debris, organic material, lumps, clods and broken paving. Backfill material placed within 1-foot of piping and appurtenances shall not contain any stones or rocks C. If a sufficient quantity of suitable backfill material is not available from the trench or other excavations within the site of the work, the Owner's Representative will order the Contractor to provide additional material suitable for this purpose. The additional material shall be installed as specified herein. D. Selected backfill material containing no stone or rocks shall be placed in 6-inch layers and thoroughly tamped to a depth of 12-inches over the top of the pipe. Particular attention and care shall be exercised in obtaining thorough support for the branch of all service connection fittings. Care shall be taken to preserve the alignment and gradient of the installed pipe. E. After the backfill has been placed to a level 12-inches over the gas line pipe, the remainder of the backfill shall be placed in layers, not to exceed 9-inches, and compacted with mechanical vibrators or other suitable equipment to obtain a density of the backfilled material of not less than 95 percent of its maximum density as hereinafter defined, unless otherwise specified on the plans. F. After selected backfill has been placed to a depth of 12-inches over the gas line pipe, backfilling shall proceed to a depth of 30-inches over the pipe by placing the backfill material in 6-inch layers and thoroughly compacting it with mechanical vibrators. Backfill in this portion of the work shall be compacted to 100 percent of maximum density of the material as hereinafter defined, unless otherwise specified on the plans. G. After the backfill has been placed to a level 30-inches over the gas line pipe, the remainder of the backfill shall be placed in layers, not to exceed 9-inches, and compacted with mechanical vibrators or other suitable equipment to obtain a density of the backfilled material of not less than 95 percent of its maximum density as hereinafter defined, unless otherwise specified on the plans. H. Within paved areas of trench excavation, the base and surfacing shall be reconstructed as specified under Section 02574 Pavement Removal and Replacement. I. No more than 800-feet of trench with pipe in place shall be partially backfilled at any time. J. Shut Down of Work: When work has shut down for each day, all lines shall be capped, sealed, and pressured to 90 pounds with air. When a Project is not immediately tied-in, plug and seal all openings in the pipe and maintain a minimum of 90 pounds of air pressure. If a pipeline is to be abandoned in place, then disconnect the gas supply source, purge all of the gas utilizing nitrogen for all gas lines exceeding 1,000 linear feet or 4” pipe size and larger; any length, from the abandoned system, and seal all of the ends. T.29 COMPACTION AND DENSITIES A. Methods of control and testing of backfill construction to be employed in this work are: 1. Maximum density of the material in trenches shall be determined by AASHTO Designation T-180, unless otherwise noted. 2. Field density of the backfill material in place shall be determined by AASHTO Designation T-238. B. Laboratory and field density tests, which, in the opinion of the Owner's Representative, are necessary to establish compliance with the compaction requirements of these specifications, will be conducted at the Contractor’s expense. Tests will be made at depths and locations selected by the Owner's Representative. Page 10 of 30 C. Trench backfill which does not comply with the specified densities, as indicated by such tests, shall be reworked and recompacted until the required compaction is secured, at no additional cost to the Owner. The Costs for retesting such work shall be paid for the Contractor. T.30 ADDITIONAL EXCAVATION AND BACKFILL A. Where organic material, such as roots, muck, or other vegetable matter, or other material which, in the opinion of the Owner’s Representative, will result in unsatisfactory foundation conditions, is encountered below the level of the proposed pipe bedding material, it shall be wholly or partially removed as directed by the Owner's Representative and wasted. Sheeting shall be installed if necessary to maintain pipe trenches within the specified limits. The resulting excavation shall be backfilled with suitable backfill material, placed in 6-inch layers, tamped and compacted up to the level of the bottom of the proposed pipe bedding material. Sufficient compaction of this material shall be performed to protect the proposed pipe against settlement. Construction shall then proceed in accordance with the provisions of Article 3.04 Pipe Bedding. B. Additional excavation shall be performed only when ordered by the Owner's Representative. Where organic or other unsuitable material is encountered in the excavation, the Contractor shall bring the condition to the attention of the Owner’s Representative and obtain his determination as to whether or not the material will require removal, prior to preparing the pipe bedding. C. Additional backfill material, if required, shall be furnished in accordance with the provisions therefore in Article 3.08 Backfill. T.31 ALTERNATE METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION A. General: 1. A combination of conditions in the substrata, water table, or method of disposal may be encountered during the course of the work, which make dewatering impossible, or only possible through the use of unusual methods, the cost of which is excessive. When such conditions are encountered, but only after all reasonable means to dewater the excavation have been employed without success, the Contractor, with the concurrence of the Owner's Representative, may elect to employ the following alternate method of construction. The concurrence of the Owner's Representative shall be obtained in writing and shall limit the use of the alternate method of construction to such specific portions of the work as the Owner's Representatives shall determine. 2. The construction specifications contained in the preceding parts of this section shall establish the required standards of construction quality for this work. Use of the alternate method of construction described hereinafter shall in no way be construed as relieving the Contractor of his basic responsibility for satisfactory completion of the work. No additional payment will be made to the Contractor for excavation, backfill, sheeting or any costs incurred for work or materials, or any other costs incurred as a result of the use of this alternate method of construction. The unit and lump sum prices established in the Proposal shall be full payment for the various items of work. 3.

CGS will reserve the right to mandate the turning on the gas and relighting the applicable appliances. Contractor shall immediately notify CGS dispatch of the “on gas” and complete the required paperwork, including the drop test integrity system testing form, and submit, no later than the following business day. The work shall be complete and performed in strict accordance with the Contract specifications, and in compliance with all applicable codes, CGS requirements, Florida Fuel Gas Code and industry standards. All work, materials, and services not expressly shown or called for in the Contract Documents, which may be necessary for the complete and proper construction of the work in good faith, shall be performed, furnished, and installed by the Contractor as though originally so specified or shown, at no increase in cost to CGS. Gas pipe fitters and plumbers shall be Florida licensed qualified and thoroughly trained and experienced in the skills required, and shall be completely familiar with the design and application of work described. T.52 EXISTING GAS HOUSE PIPING (PLUMBING) A. The modification of the existing gas house piping plumbing shall be performed by the contractor only after receiving written approval from the CGS construction inspector. With the inspector’s authorization the Contractor shall perform all modifications required for gas meter set clearance code compliance of existing natural gas plumbing. B. The Contractor shall remove and dispose of all abandoned existing gas plumbing piping. The Contractor shall not cut into the existing gas plumbing until the CGS inspector verifies the new meter stub-out location. T.53 TESTING A. Contractor shall pay for all testing and retesting required to show compliance with the Contract Specifications, Codes, Regulations, and all other applicable laws. 1. CUSTOMER SYSTEM PRESSURE TEST The Contractor will conduct leakage tests at one and half times the gas delivery pressure for minimum time of 15 minutes on the new completed gas plumbing or as required by the City- County Building Inspector. The pressure shall not decrease or increase during the test period. Page 22 of 30 2. CODE COMPLIANCE TESTING: Before turning gas on Before gas is introduced into a system of gas piping, the entire system shall be inspected to determine that there are no open fittings or ends and that all valves at unused outlets are closed and plugged or capped. 3. LEAK DETECTION METHODS The leakage shall be located by means of an approved gas detector, a noncorrosive detection fluid or other approved leak detection methods B. The following is an approved procedure for leak testing customer piping systems: Leak tests are required any time there is an interruption of service meaning the flow of gas was stopped for any reason. Florida Fuel Gas Code 406.6.3 (NFPA 54 -8.2.3) states that "Immediately after the gas is turned on into a new system or into a system that has been initially restored after an interruption of service, the piping system shall be tested for leakage. If leakage is indicated, the gas supply shall be shut off until the necessary repairs have been made". The leak test will indicate any leaks within the propane piping system due to interruption of service or out of gas situation. The leakage test is simply testing the integrity of the system plumbing joints and the seal of the pipe joint compound, piping fittings, pipe, gas equipment & appliances, valves etc. This is the safety reasoning behind leak testing. The purpose a leak test is performed is the life-safety factor “Protect Life and Then Property and because it is required by Federal Pipeline Safety Laws of CFR 49.192, Florida Building Code adopted law/ ordinance and the gas industry. The leak check tests for leakage throughout the system of piping and appliances. It is used for new and existing gas systems. It is conducted after a system has been successfully pressure tested, inspected and approved. Normally, the leak check is conducted when one of the following occurs: • A system of new gas or modified gas piping is placed into service for the first time (drop test) • A gas leakage is suspected (investigation of an odor complaint) • A gas meter is replaced • An appliance or appliance connector is replaced • An out of gas condition occurs (interruption of service) The pressure test and leak check are often confused. A pressure test is required for new piping installations, while a leak check is required whenever the gas system is initially placed into service or when the gas is turned back on after it has been turned off. Leak checks differ from the pressure test in that it requires no special preparations. The medium used for a leak check is fuel gas at normal supply pressure. The gas is applied to the total system. T.54 LEAK CHECK PROCEDURE The procedure for the leak check is not specified in the NFPA 54- National Fuel Gas Code or the ICC Fuel Gas Code- Florida Fuel Gas Code. Any CGS accepted method can be used, as long as it finds leaks. It is recommended that a written procedure for the method be developed and the steps be taken to ensure that all employees follow the method established; consequently every system is tested identically. Page 23 of 30 T.55 TESTING FOR LEAKAGE This test can be done by one of the following methods: For Any Gas System- To an appropriate checkpoint attach a manometer or an appropriate pressure gauge between the inlet to the piping system and the first regulator in the piping system, momentarily turn on the gas supply and observe the gauging device for pressure drop with the gas supply shut off. No evident drop in pressure should occur during a period of 3 minutes. For Gas Systems Using Undiluted Liquefied Petroleum Gas System- Preparation for propane. A leak check performed on an LP Gas System being placed back into service should include all regulators, including appliance regulators, and control valves in the system. Accordingly, each individual equipment shutoff valve should be supplying pressure to its appliance for the leak check. This check will prove the integrity of the 100 percent pilot shut off of each gas valve in the on position. Pilot not incorporating a 100 percent pilot shut off valve and all manual gas valves not incorporating safety shutoff systems are to be placed in the off position prior to leak checking, by using the following methods: By inserting a pressure gauge between the container gas shutoff valve and the first regulator in the system, admitting full container gas pressure to the system and closing the container shutoff valve. Enough gas should be released from the system to lower the pressure gauge reading by 10psi. The system should then be allowed to stand for 3 minutes without showing an increase or decrease in the pressure gauge reading. For systems serving appliances that receive gas at a pressure of ½ psi or less, by inserting a water manometer or appropriate pressure gauge into the system downstream of the final regulator, pressurizing the system with either fuel gas or air to test pressure of 9 in. water column and observing the device for a pressure change. If fuel gas is used as a pressure source, it is necessary to pressurize the system to full operating pressure, close the container service valve, and then release enough gas from the system through a range burner valve or other suitable means to drop the system pressure to 9 in water column. This ensures that all regulators in the system are unlocked and that a leak anywhere in the system is communicated to the gauging device. The gauging device should indicate no lose or gain of pressure for a period of 3 minutes. T.56 WHEN LEAKAGE IS DETECTED When pressure drops on the gauge or manometer is noted, all equipment or outlets supplied through the system should be examined to see whether they are shut off and do not leak. If they are found tight, there is a leak in the piping system. Where leakage is indicated, the gas supply at the meter shall be shut off, locked and slugged until the necessary repairs have been made. CGS dispatch shall be notified ASAP Where leakage or other defects are located, the affected portion of the piping system shall be repaired or replaced and retested. Matches, candles, open flames or other methods that could provide a source of ignition shall not be used. T.57 PLACING GAS EQUIPMENT IN OPERATION Gas utilization equipment / appliances shall be permitted to be placed in operation after the piping system has been tested and determined to be free of leakage and purged in accordance with Section 406.7.2. of the Florida Fuel Gas Code. The Contractor will conduct leakage tests at one and a half times the gas delivery pressure for minimum time of 15 minutes on the existing gas house plumbing or as required by the City- County Building Inspector. The pressure shall not decrease or increase during the test period. Other inspections and tests required by the City – County Building Inspector, codes, ordinances, or other legally constituted authority shall be the responsibility of and shall be paid for by the Contractor. Testing of the existing gas house piping plumbing shall be performed prior to connecting the new supply line. Page 24 of 30 T.58 TESTING Testing will be in accordance with the Florida Building Code and the CGS leakage testing requirements. T.59 CONTRACTOR'S CONVENIENCE TESTING Inspection and testing performed exclusively for the Contractor's convenience by CGS shall be at the convenience of CGS if available and normal labor rates may be applicable. T.60 SCHEDULE FOR TESTING 1. If applicable, testing shall be scheduled with the Building Department in advance. 2. At least 48 hours notice shall be provided to the Building Department, when permits and testing is required.

PROJECT MISSION. The City of Clearwater is dedicated to providing superior services to its customers in order to improve the quality of life for Clearwater residents, businesses and visitors. The City is looking for vendors who share that dedication and will help the City meet that goal. 2. BACKGROUND. The current Clearwater Gas System (CGS) building is over 35 years old, is no longer meeting the needs of the department, and has surpassed its lifespan. HVAC problems in the adjacent operations building late last summer instigated the redevelopment master plan. The master redevelopment study identifying the broad scope of this project was completed in July 2016 and estimates a total project construction budget of approximately $16 million. The proposed redevelopment will include multi-phase construction of facilities identified in the Master Site Redevelopment Plan (excerpts shown as Exhibit A). The first phase will include the main hardened, two-story building with tower feature, housing operations and warehouse on the first floor, administration on the second floor, sales on the east side of the ground floor, and a small third level tower on the west side for dispatch and control. Subsequent mini-phases will include storage and support facilities. CGS will operate out of the existing buildings during all phases of construction, therefore proper phasing and logistics is critical. 3. SCOPE OF WORK. The City of Clearwater (City) intends to engage a Construction Management (CM) at Risk firm to provide management of the preconstruction and construction services (collectively referred to as the Services) as described herein for the Clearwater Gas Systems, City Project # 15-0043-GA. The City anticipates eight (8) months of design and thirty (30) months of phased construction, with the initial main building completed by early 2019. The chosen CM at Risk firm will join the project team near the 50% design phase to provide pre-construction phase services to the City under a purchase order for the negotiated design-phase fees. Applicable purchase order requirements are included with Exhibit D, Standard Terms and Conditions as well as the required Truth in Negotiation certificate (Exhibit C). When the construction documents are sufficiently complete to establish the scope of work for the project or any portion thereof, the Construction Manager will establish and submit in writing to the City for approval a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for the project. Once the GMP for construction on the project is agreed upon, the City staff may recommend to City Council to award the Construction Management firm the Construction Manager at Risk Contract. A sample contract is attached as Exhibit B, Sample Contract. However, if a GMP cannot be agreed upon the City may solicit other CM at Risk firms. The following documents are included with this RFQ: Exhibit A, Excerpts from the Master Site Redevelopment Plan. Existing and proposed site plans, provided for information purposes only. Exhibit B, Sample Contract. Sample of Construction Manager at Risk Services contract to be entered into upon successful negotiation.

The location of this new bus bay is just east of the intersection of Causeway Boulevard and East Shore Drive. This project will include the construction of a boardwalk structure connecting the sidewalk running along the north side of Causeway Boulevard to the Gateway Parking Lot #43 owned by the City of Clearwater. In addition, a canopy structure will be constructed adjacent to the proposed bus bay and over the proposed boardwalk connection. All work shall take place within the existing City of Clearwater right-of- way. This project involves roadway design, drainage design, signage and pavement markings, structures design, and utility coordination. Other improvements will be handled by the City of Clearwater and are not a part of the scope for this project including landscaping, transit amenities, and signalization. Causeway Boulevard from East Shore Drive to the bridge over the Clearwater Harbor Channel is classified as an urban principal arterial. This section is a four-lane divided roadway with 10-foot travel lanes, a 13-foot median with Type D median curb, Type F curb and gutter along the outside in both directions, 15’ landscape areas on both sides, a 10-foot sidewalk on the north side, and 15- foot sidewalk on the south side. There is an existing stormwater pond located along the north side of Causeway Boulevard between the sidewalk and the parking lot. Roadway The proposed improvements associated with this project will extend from 40-feet east of Lake Shore Drive to 100-feet west of the bridge over Clearwater Harbor Channel. There will be a proposed bus bay 340-foot in length constructed along the north side of Causeway Boulevard. The bus bay will be 13-feet in width and will be constructed with asphalt pavement. There will be proposed drop curb constructed between the bus bay pavement and the existing roadway pavement. There will be proposed Type F curb and gutter constructed along the back of the bus bay pavement. The existing 10-foot wide sidewalk adjacent to the proposed bus bay will be reconstructed with 6-inch thick concrete. A 6-inch thick concrete landing area with ramps transitioning to the existing parking lot pavement will be constructed at the end of the proposed boardwalk connection within the existing parking lot area. The traffic control plan for this project will utilize Index 612 for the construction of the proposed bus bay. A pedestrian detour will be utilized to route pedestrians around the work zone. Drainage The existing drainage system along Causeway Boulevard is a closed storm pipe drainage system. There is an existing linear stormwater pond located along the north side of Causeway Boulevard between the existing sidewalk and parking lot. The proposed bus bay pavement will be sloped towards the existing roadway. The bus bay improvements will impact an existing curb inlet, which will be removed and replaced with a proposed Type V Inlet. This will also require a portion of the existing roadway pavement to be reconstructed. A SWFWMD minor permit modification is necessary in order to construct the proposed boardwalk connection over the existing stormwater pond to the parking lot. Signing and Pavement Markings This project will include proposed striping and pavement messages for the bus bay improvements. Striping will also be added within the parking lot adjacent to the proposed landing area with ramps. Four parking spaces will be closed due to the proposed improvements within the parking lot. Two existing signs will be relocated to the median due to the bus bay improvements. Structures This project will include the construction of a 10-foot wide synthetic boardwalk connecting the sidewalk running along the north side of Causeway Boulevard to the Gateway Parking Lot #43 owned by the City of Clearwater. A canopy structure will be constructed over the sidewalk located adjacent to the proposed bus bay and over the boardwalk connection to the parking lot. The canopy structure will require several anticipated foundations constructed along the back of the proposed sidewalk. Utilities There are eight utility agency owners located within the project limits. There will be anticipated utility relocations and adjustments due to the proposed bus bay improvements, mainly due to the proposed canopy foundations. Utility coordination is on-going with all utility agency owners. As information is received, the plans will be updated with plan revisions. Additional subsurface utility engineering (SUE) is being scheduled for the anticipated canopy foundation locations.

(consent) SUMMARY: January 19, 2017, City Council approved the conceptual plan for Cleveland Streetscape Phase III and the Festival Core. April 2002, the Clearwater Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) released a Request for Qualifications for Urban Design, Streetscape and Wayfinding Services. May 2002, a selection committee consisting of representatives from City Management, Economic Development, Planning, and Public Works selected Bellomo-Herbert as the preferred consultant. August 2002, the City contracted with Bellomo-Herbert to prepare the conceptual wayfinding and downtown streetscape plans. September 2008, the first phase of the implementation of the plan was completed with the Cleveland Street Streetscape from Osceola to Myrtle Avenues. The goals for the first phase of Cleveland Streetscape were accomplished: 1) enhance the pedestrian environment; 2) invite residents and visitors to Downtown; and 3) encourage private development. July 2012, the second phase of implementation of the plan was completed with the Cleveland Streetscape from Myrtle to Missouri Avenues. The goals for the second phases of Cleveland Streetscape were also accomplished 1) enhance the pedestrian environment; 2) invite residents and visitors to downtown; and 3) encourage private development. Phase III of the streetscape program will extend from Missouri Avenue to Sam Remo Avenue to the east. In addition, the streetscape will also include Gulf-to-Bay Boulevard from its intersection with Cleveland Street up to the Downtown Gateway at Court Street to the south; Cleveland Street will provide a unified cohesive pedestrian-friendly corridor from the Gateway to the Downtown waterfront. This project will also include the Festival Core, which was identified by the 2nd Century Clearwater (ULI) as a priority project. The Festival Core will be located at the intersection of Cleveland Street and Gulf-to-Bay Boulevard and will provide a much-needed local activity center. Phase III is a critical infrastructure project that will continue to encourage and facilitate the City and CRA’s redevelopment goals. Cleveland Streetscape Phase III and the Festival Core project will keep the same look and Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 4/6/2017 File Number: ID#17-3329 feel of the previous two phases, but will be more of a “Complete Streets” approach to the area. The project will reduce the number of vehicular travel lanes from four to two, while providing separate pedestrian, bicycle and vehicular traffic facilities. The project will also enhance the stormwater collection and treatment system in the project area, by adding rain gardens and other stormwater system improvements and enhancements. In addition, this project will replace aging water and wastewater systems in the area. This contract includes complete design, permitting and construction documents for all streetscape and roadwork on Cleveland Streetscape Phase III and the Festival Core and will begin upon approval and execution of the work order and completion is expected within 8 months. The City of Clearwater Engineering Department will be responsible for the Land Surveying and any required engineering design and permitting for the stormwater and utility modifications and/or improvements within or adjacent to the project area. The project construction is estimated to cost $6,000,000.00 APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: 0315-92278-561200-541-000 $217,520 Funds are available in capital improvement project 315-92278, Downtown Streetscaping, to fund this work order.

Osceola Avenue Clearwater, FL 33756 File Number: ID#17-3314 Agenda Date: 4/6/2017 Status: Consent AgendaVersion: 1 File Type: Action ItemIn Control: Public Utilities Agenda Number: 7.9 SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION: Authorize a purchase order (contract) to Water Specialists Technologies LLC of Sanford, FL in the annual amount of $190,000.00, with the option for two, one-year term extensions for the purchase of copper precipitant (TR-50) and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent) SUMMARY: The City of Clearwater owns and operates three Water Reclamation Facilities (WRF) and must comply with regulatory requirements as set forth in the operating permits issued through the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) and/or FDEP Regulations. TR-50 is a copper precipitant that is used to maintain permit compliance for copper removal limitations in effluent discharged into receiving surface waters. The FDEP permitted effluent limit for copper is 3.7 parts per billion. In accordance with City Code Section 2.564 (1)(b), Exceptions to Bidding, Water Specialists Technologies has been determined a sole source vendor for TR-50. They hold patent number 4,943,377 for Thio-Red, a method for removing dissolved heavy metals from waste oils, industrial wastewaters, or any polar solvent. Thio-Red is the primary ingredient in TR-50, and Water Specialists Technologies is the sole manufacturer of this product. Water Specialists Technologies does not currently have any other TR-50 distributors within the state of Florida. TR-50 was selected for use in 2006 after an extensive engineering study was undertaken to select the product best capable of allowing the City’s facilities to meet FDEP permit requirements, while not causing any toxicity, creating any chemical interaction side-effects, and being the most cost-effective. This product has met all expectations and has performed very well. It has not exhibited any toxicity and has not created any chemical interaction related ill-effects. The plants have met the FDEP/USEPA copper limitation ever since the chemical began being used. Water Specialists Technologies has held Clearwater’s discounted price for this chemistry at or below their distributors’ pricing for many years (see attached letter). The sole source letter also reflects our arrangement for the return of used totes, an offer that is not extended to any of their other customers. APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: 0421-01351-551000-535-000-0000 $80,000.00 FY16/17 0421-01351-551000-535-000-0000 $110,000.00 FY17/18 Sufficient funding is available in the Water & Sewer Utility Fund operating cost center Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 4/6/2017 File Number: ID#17-3314 0421-01351, Wastewater Environmental Technologies Operations, in the amount of $80,000.00 to fund the current fiscal year’s cost of the contract. The funding for the remaining balance of $110,000.00 occurring in fiscal year 2018 will be included in the Water & Sewer Utility Fund recommended operating budget from the Public Utilities Director.

FOB our facility in Sanford, FL for totes of our TR-50 Precipitant to Clearwater for the period from May 1, 2017 to April 30, 2018. This discounted price is contingent upon Clearwater’s return of empty used totes in good condition (no punctures or markings) and the original caps in place. Please let me know if you have any questions or if more information is required. Pam McKenzie Business Manager DATE:March 2, 2017 TO:City of Clearwater ATTN:Public Utilities Department SUBJ:TR-50 Water Specialists Technologies is the sole source and manufacturer of TR-50, the City of Clearwater’s long-standing waste water treatment chemistry. We hold patent number 4,943,377 for Thio-Red, a method for removing dissolved heavy metals from waste oils, industrial wastewaters, or any polar solvent. Thio-Red is the primary ingredient in TR- 50, and Water Specialists Technologies is the sole manufacturer of this product. We do not currently have any other TR-50 distributor within the state of Florida. The shipping costs provided to Water Specialists Technologies by our LTL carriers are in turn reflected in Clearwater’s lower in-state freight charges. Your sales representative (and Water Specialists Technologies’ owner), Dean Schmelter, has held Clearwater’s discounted price for this chemistry at or below our distributors’ pricing for many years. It reflects both our arrangment for the return of your used totes (an offer that is not extended to any of our other customers), and our continued regard of Clearwater as a preferred customer. Current pricing of TR-50 in 2580 pound 275 gallon totes remains at $0.55/lb. Please call if you have any questions, or if there is anything else you need to set up a blanket purchase order with us again this year. We look forward to continuing to serve you in the future, and appreciate your business.

Laughlin Board Name: Marine Advisory Board Cover Memo City of Clearwater City Hall 112 S. Osceola Avenue Clearwater, FL 33756 File Number: ID#17-3340 Agenda Date: 4/6/2017 Status: Consent AgendaVersion: 1 File Type: Action ItemIn Control: Legal Department Agenda Number: 7.11 SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION: Approve an Amended Legal Services Agreement between the City of Clearwater and Attorney Nancy Mag, who is the Local Hearing Officer for the purpose of conducting hearings related to red-light-camera violations, and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent) SUMMARY: Since 2003, pursuant to an employment services contract approved by Council, Attorney Nancy Mag has been the Local Hearing Officer for the purpose of conducting hearings related to red-light-camera violations. On the third Wednesday of each month, the City Clerk has scheduled hearings for those individuals wanting to contest the notice of violation issued to them as a result of their vehicles’ having been captured on a video camera running a red light. Ms. Mag has been paid an hourly rate of $150.00 for those hearings, with a guaranteed minimum of 2 hours. Recently, an IRS auditor opined that the hourly wage paid to the Nancy Mag would require the City to treat Ms. Mag as a city employee for tax purposes. The IRS auditor suggested that paying Ms. Mag a retainer, rather than an hourly wage, would avoid the issue. Thus, the Legal Services Agreement between the City of Clearwater and Attorney Nancy Mag has been amended accordingly so that Ms. Mag will be paid a monthly retainer of $300 to conduct the hearings.

FEDERAL ISSUE: National Flood Insurance Program BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: In 1968, Congress established the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) to address the nation’s flood exposure and challenges inherent in financing and managing flood risks in the private sector. Private insurance companies at the time claimed that the flood peril was uninsurable and, therefore, could not be underwritten in the private insurance market. A three-prong floodplain management and insurance program was created to (1) identify areas across the nation most at risk of flooding; (2) minimize the economic impact of flooding events through floodplain management ordinances; and (3) provide flood insurance to individuals and businesses. Until 2005, the NFIP was self-supporting, as policy premiums and fees covered expenses and claim payments. Today, the program is roughly $25 billion in debt due to a number of large storms. In mid-2012, Congress passed, and the President signed, the Biggert-Waters Flood Insurance Act (BW12), a 5-year reauthorization of the NFIP that attempted to restore the program to firmer financial footing by making a number of changes to the program that impacts the Island’s residents. Then, in early 2014, the Homeowner Flood Insurance Affordability Act (HFIAA), was enacted in an attempt to address some of the so-called unintended consequences of BW12. While HFIAA delayed many of the premium increases implemented by BW12, in the long run, the only real difference between rate increases envisioned by the two bills is that HFIAA reinstated grandfathering. This provision originally ended by BW12 allows property owners to pay flood insurance rates based on original risk, not that which is determined by new community flood maps. Authorization of the NFIP expires September 30, 2017, which means the 115th Congress will need to address the program this year. Reauthorization will likely include reforms to the NFIP. There are 12,148 NFIP policies in Clearwater for both homes and commercial properties. HFIAA Implementation While it is unclear if Congress can successfully address the shortcomings in HIFIAA during the remainder of the 114th Congress, FEMA will continue to spend significant time implementing the legislation. This includes creating a Flood Insurance Advocate, allowing for option high-deductible policies for residential properties, communicating full flood risk determinations to property owners regardless of whether their premiums reflect such risk, implementing changes to how FEMA handles map revisions, completing a study of community-based flood insurance options, attempting to secure reinsurance of coverage provided by the NFIP from private markets, providing refunds to pre-FIRM primary homeowners who overpaid due to BW12, providing guidelines for property owners describing alternative means of flood mitigation, other than elevation, that can reduce flood risk and inform property owners about how mitigation can lower premiums, completing an Affordability Study and a “Draft Affordability Framework,” allowing for the monthly payment of flood insurance premiums, and reporting to Congress on the number of annual policy premiums that exceed one percent of the total coverage provided by the policy. Meanwhile, effective April 1, 2016, the first significant wave of NFIP rate increases resulting from HFIAA were instituted. As noted above, HFIAA called for the NFIP to limit rate increases to no more than 18 percent for any one policy with exceptions. However, FEMA has interpreted HFIAA to allow for the total amount charged to the policyholder to increase an average of 19.8 percent for all 5.5 million FEMA policies and an increase of 37 percent for certain policies. The most notable exception is that older non-primary residences and older business properties will continue to see annual increases of up to 25 percent. However, because of a new mandatory $250 surcharge on certain properties, some may see a premium increase of 37 percent as of April 1, 2015. This new mandatory surcharge and the Federal Policy fee found on every FEMA flood insurance policy are not considered premiums by FEMA, and thus are not subject to the limitations described in the HFIAA. FEMA has admitted that as a result, the increase in the total amount charged to a policy may exceed 18 percent. Affordability Study In 2015, the National Academy of Sciences released two reports on Affordability of National Flood Insurance Program Premiums. Overall the reports unfortunately left many questions unanswered, indicating that many decisions must be made by policy makers (Congress, in this case) and that the report’s specific and clear guidance is limited due to a lack of data. The reports focus in a highly technical manner on examining options for providing premium assistance to certain NFIP policyholders and suggest tying such assistance to mitigation grants or loans. Specifically, the second report found that “linking mitigation with premium assistance can lead to property owners having a cost effective combination of mitigation and insurance coverage.” The reports do not simply suggest ways to arbitrarily lower flood insurance policy costs across the board. Now that the affordability study is complete, FEMA is expected to propose an affordability framework to Congress within 18 months (by the summer of 2017). Based on these reports, that framework will likely include some form of premium assistance and mitigation efforts. City of Clearwater Position The City of Clearwater supports reauthorization of the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) with legislative, policy and programmatic modifications to improve the affordability and transparency of the program through reforms in the following areas: 1) Affordability/Rate Structure a. Maintain a focus on affordability; however, if rates must rise, provide a more reasonable glide path for all properties b. Ensure rates are consistent for all properties, including second homes and businesses c. Ensure NFIP rates are not excessive or unfair by making the rate-setting process more transparent to the public 2) Programmatic Modifications to Enhance NFIP’s Financial Sustainability a. Consider Write-Your-Own reforms including reducing commissions while further incentivizing NFIP policy sales efforts b. Encourage greater participation by those outside of the 100-year floodplain via expanded use of the Preferred Risk Policy c. Further strengthen enforcement responsibilities to ensure those in the 100-year floodplain have and maintain flood insurance d. Privatization that maintains affordability and requires whole profile of risk (no cherry picking) 3) Mitigation a. Increase funding for existing flood mitigation programs b. Establish tax credits for mitigation efforts c. Consider voucher/loan programs to further emphasize mitigation, particularly for lower-income participants RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support efforts to improve the National Flood Insurance Program for the benefit of all participants. Monitor FEMA’s implementation of the Homeowner Flood Insurance Affordability Act. FEDERAL ISSUE: Waters of the United States BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: A series of decisions by the U.S. Supreme Court over the past decade imposed restrictions on the scope of wetland regulation governed by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA), which regulates “dredge and fill” activities in navigable waters and their adjacent wetlands. Opponents of these restrictions have urged Congress to redefine Waters of the U.S. (WOTUS), and apply that definition to all aspects of the CWA. As legislation along those lines failed to pass previous Congresses, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (ACOE) during the Obama Administration developed guidance and a final rule to redefine WOTUS. There is concern that this effort significantly expanded the definition of WOTUS to include tributaries, ditches, canals, and other water bodies that can potentially drain into navigable waters, interstate waters, or the territorial seas. These water bodies would be subject to new requirements, and some waters currently covered by a permit would be subject to additional monitoring and regulation when those permits are renewed. Meanwhile, President Trump signed an executive order in February to begin the process of reversing the WOTUS rule. While the executive order cannot itself repeal WOTUS, which was finalized in May 2015, the order directs EPA and the Army Corps to begin a formal review of the regulation, a likely first step to dismantling it. The executive order also signals a significant change in the government's legal strategy for deciding which wetlands and streams are protected under the Clean Water Act. For more than a decade, federal agencies have relied on Justice Anthony Kennedy's opinion in the 2006 wetland-permitting case, Rapanos v. United States, in determining where the federal reach over waterways begins. The court ruled in favor of Rapanos, but in a 4-1-4 vote, the majority split on what approach to use to define government jurisdiction. The order specifically asks the agencies to consider the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia wrote in the 2006 case Rapanos v. United States, saying the Clean Water Act ought only to cover navigable waters and waterways “with a continuous surface connection” to them — a far more restrictive definition than what the Obama EPA put into its rule. Relying on Scalia’s opinion would likely restrict federal jurisdiction. Because the WOTUS rule already is final, the Administration would also have to follow the Administrative Procedures Act, meaning it will need scientific backing to dispute, among other things, the 408-page technical report that accompanied the Obama regulation. The rule is currently on hold. The Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, based in Cincinnati, ordered it halted in 2015 while numerous lawsuits challenging the rule wind their ways through the court system. The executive order instructed the EPA to ask the Sixth Circuit court to put the litigation against WOTUS on hold while the administration reviews it. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Monitor activity related to the Waters of the U.S. rule. Oppose any aspects of the proposed rule that could lead to unrealistic and over-burdensome regulations that would negatively affect the City of Clearwater. FEDERAL ISSUE: Water Conservation Financing BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: In an effort to respond to the lack of federal funding opportunities for new water infrastructure projects, Congress created a five- year pilot program called the Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (WIFIA) in the Water Resources Reform and Development Act (WRRDA) of 2014 (H.R. 3080). WRRDA was signed into law in June 2014. Under WIFIA, eligible entities, including local governments, may apply for a low-cost, long-term secured loan from the Army Corps of Engineers and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to finance eligible water infrastructure projects. Loans may be used for clean water and drinking water projects through the EPA, as well as water resources projects (e.g., flood control and navigation) through the Corps. Eligible activities include: planning, feasibility studies, environmental review, permitting, engineering and design, construction, rehabilitation, and property acquisition. WIFIA would access funds from the U.S. Treasury at long-term Treasury rates and use those funds to provide loans or other credit support for water projects. Funds would flow from the Treasury, through WIFIA, to larger water projects (projects must cost at least $20 million) or to State Revolving Funds wishing to borrow to enlarge their pool of capital. By being able to access funds at Treasury rates, communities receiving WIFIA loans can save up to 20 percent compared with current borrowing rates, significantly accelerating water infrastructure investment. WIFIA backed-loans would have a 35-year repayment period, with no payment obligations until five years after completion of the project. When originally written, the law prohibited the use of tax-exempt bonds to pay for the non-federal portions of the project, effectively taking away the most cost-effective tool for local governments that might seek WIFIA loans. However, the FAST Act, the five-year surface transportation bill passed by Congress in December 2015 includes a provision to lift the ban on using tax-exempt bonds for WIFIA loans. This may provide the City with an attractive funding stream for future water resource efforts. Congress provided WIFIA with $2.2 million in both FY 2015 and FY 2016 for implementation purposes. The Administration then requested $20 million ($15 million for loans; $5 million for administrative purposes) in its FY 2017 budget request. In the FY 2017 Continuing Resolution, which was passed in December of 2016, Congress included $20 million for the WIFIA program in FY 2017. According to the EPA, this should allow the agency to leverage $1 billion in loan capacity. On December 6, 2016, the EPA published a final interim rule establishing guidelines for the program, the application and administration process, and a proposed fee structures for assistance under WIFIA. The funding process established by the EPA has three phases. The first phase is Project Selection; this requires applicants to submit letters of interest that the EPA will evaluate and select projects to move forward. The second phase is Project Approval which will involve the submission of an application and the EPA will conduct a financial and engineering review. A non-refundable application fee to cover the cost of this review has been set at $100,000 for large communities and $25,000 for small communities. The results of the review will form the basis for negotiation with the borrower on the terms and conditions related to the project. The final phase is Negotiation and Closing which will conclude with the execution of the credit agreement, allowing the borrower to access the WIFIA funds. The applicant will be responsible for covering the credit processing fees to bring the project to closing, with the application fee offsetting a portion of the costs. The Environmental Protection Agency has recently begun the first step of the funding process and is currently accepting letters of interest through April 10, 2017. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Monitor implementation of the Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (WIFIA). Support any applications submitted by the City for a WIFIA-backed loan. FEDERAL ISSUE: Clearwater Pass Maintenance Dredging BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: As a federal navigation channel, the Army Corps of Engineers is supposed to be 100 percent responsible for the cost of maintenance dredging of Clearwater Pass. The Pass requires maintenance dredging about every 5 years due to shoaling, which cuts off an important navigation channel for local commercial fishermen, charter boats, and other recreational vessels. However, due to budget constraints, this only occurs about every 10 years. Clearwater Pass was last dredged and fully paid for by the Corps in 2001. The Pass was again dredged in 2012, but the City of Clearwater paid the entire $750,000 cost of the project, as it was uncertain when the Corps may have funding available to complete the dredging. Eventually, the Corps did reimburse the City for about a third of the cost of that dredging operation. The dredging project has a double benefit, as the sand that is removed is then used to renourish North Clearwater Beach. To fund dredging projects that are not generally budgeted for by the Administration due to the difficult competition for funds from the Army Corps of Engineers, Congress has adjusted their funding strategy in the age of no-earmarks to add additional funding for what Congress terms “Additional Funding for Ongoing Work.” Among these amounts, Congress in Fiscal Year (FY) 2015 provided $42.5 million in additional funding to the Corps for “Small, Remote, or Subsistence Navigation” operations and maintenance (O&M) activities. In FY 2016, Congress provided an increase in funding to $48 million. This is the funding from which the Clearwater Pass must compete in the future to maintain the channel. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support adequate annual funding for the Corps of Engineers Operations & Maintenance account, including additional funding for dredging not identified in the annual Administration budget. Support additional funding specifically provided for “Small, Remote, or Subsistence Navigation” dredging activities. FEDERAL ISSUE: Sand Key Beach Nourishment BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: Pinellas County has partnered with the Army Corps of Engineers to nourish Sand Key, located within the City of Clearwater, since 1988. The Federal Authorization for this project expires in December of 2043. The Sand Key project is scheduled for nourishment in 2017. In addition, as a result of the erosion due to the hurricanes and storms of the 2016 season, the County requested funding for the rehabilitation of the shore protection project at Sand Key and executed an agreement for just under $13 million in federal funding for the project in February of 2017. The project design and construction activities will be managed through the Army Corps of Engineers. Though this funding will mitigate recent storm damage, the project still requires additional funding for a full nourishment to take place. It is estimated that to complete a full nourishment of Sand Key will require an additional $19 million, with just under $12 million coming from the federal share and approximately $7 million from state and county resources. It is essential that the funding for this nourishment project and the other Pinellas County authorized projects is included in the 2017 Work Plan. To fund beach nourishment projects and studies that are generally not budgeted for by the Administration, Congress has appropriated additional funding for what Congress terms “Additional Funding for Ongoing Work.” In Fiscal Year (FY) 2016, Congress provided $40 million in additional funding to the Corps for “shore protection” construction activities. This funding allows the Corps to develop its Work Plan and provide money for additional projects not originally budgeted for by the Administration. This is the funding source from which Pinellas County shore protection project must compete. Additionally, the Sand Key nourishment project does require the acquisition of perpetual easements, to allow for construction and public access, from property owners in the project area. City and County staff have been engaged in securing the easements and are working closely with the Army Corps of Engineers to ensure property owners are well informed and can easily execute the documents needed to provide the easements. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support adequate annual funding for the Shore Protection projects under the Construction General account for the Army Corps of Engineers. Support the inclusion of funding of the entire Pinellas County shore protection project in the Army Corps of Engineers Work Plan. FEDERAL ISSUE: Tax-Exempt Bonds BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: Although municipal bonds have been tax-exempt for almost 100 years, a number of federal proposals have been offered over the past few years that target this exemption, particularly as part of the debate to end the sequester or reduce federal spending. With local governments facing severe budget difficulties, any proposal to limit the tax exemption would put more pressure on local finances by reducing demand for tax-exempt bonds and increase borrowing costs for state and local governments, ultimately leading to higher taxes or reduced services. It is estimated that the difference in the rate of earnings the City and other local governments would need to offer prospective buyers for their taxable bonds would depend on the market, but typically would range from 1.5 to 2 percent more for those offerings. On $1 million borrowed, this would likely cost $20,000 more in interest per year. Taking this further, if the City were to amortize a $100 million loan over 30 years at taxable bond rates two percent higher than if the bonds were tax-exempt, the additional cost to taxpayers over those 30 years could be roughly $30 million. As in previous years, the Obama Administration proposed a 28 percent limit on all itemized deductions for high-income individuals in its Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 budget. If accepted by Congress, this would apply to all new and outstanding municipal bonds. According to a study conducted by the National Association of Counties, if this 28 percent cap had been in place over the past decade, borrowing costs to state and local governments would have increased by over $173 billion, while a full repeal would have cost nearly $500 billion over the same time period. Meanwhile, the Trump Administration and the 115th Congress are expected to focus on comprehensive tax reform in 2017, making it a top priority. Among many other provisions, and to generate revenue to cover the cost of legislation, the Trump Administration has suggested its tax reform agenda will “reduce or eliminate most deductions and loopholes available to the very rich.” This almost surely would include municipal bond deductions, meaning that bond issuers would have to offer higher rates to attract investors. It is estimated that the difference in the rate of earnings the City and other local governments would need to offer prospective buyers for their taxable bonds would depend on the market, but typically would range from 1.5 to 2 percent more for those offerings. On $1 million borrowed, this would likely cost $20,000 more in interest per year. Taking this further, if the City were to amortize a $100 million loan over 30 years at taxable bond rates two percent higher than if the bonds were tax-exempt, the additional cost to taxpayers over those 30 years could be roughly $30 million. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Oppose legislation that would threaten the tax exemption on state and local bonds, including a 28 percent cap on tax-exempt municipal bonds. FEDERAL ISSUE: Remote Sales-Tax Legislation BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: With some limited exceptions, retailers are only required to collect sales tax in states where they have brick-and-mortar stores. The burden then falls to consumers to report to state tax departments any sales taxes they owe for online purchases. Often, due to complex reporting requirements, consumers do not report those purchases when completing their tax returns. As a result, local retailers can be at a competitive disadvantage because they must collect sales taxes while out-of-state retailers, including many large online and catalog retailers, often offer their customers a discount by collecting no state or local sales taxes. Therefore, the current sales tax system is perceived as being unfair to brick-and-mortar retailers that employ local residents, including local stores as well as national chains like Best Buy or Home Depot. The lost revenue is also a drain on local governments. In 2014, uncollected sales tax was estimated to have cost local governments $23 billion nationwide. To correct this inequity across the country, Congress introduced the Marketplace Fairness Act in both the House and Senate during the 113th Congress. The bill would have created two systems from which states could choose to facilitate the process of collecting these taxes. The first would have been the already established Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Agreement (SSUTA), which would have simplified state and local sales and use tax laws. Twenty-four states have already signed this agreement, which is also supported by the National League of Cities and the U.S. Conference of Mayors. The second alternative would have allowed for states to meet minimum requirements for their state tax laws and administration thereof. To protect small, online retailers, this legislation would have also exempted sellers who make less than $1,000,000 in total remote sales from the requirement to collect taxes. In 2013, the Senate passed the Marketplace Fairness Act with bipartisan support by a vote of 70-24, with Senator Nelson voting for the measure and Senator Rubio against it. In the House, companion legislation was not considered, although it had 67 cosponsors, including Florida Representatives Deutch, Ross, Wilson, and Diaz-Balart, and former Rep. Crenshaw. The issue reemerged in the 114th Congress. Most recently, in August 2016, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-VA) released a discussion draft known as the Online Sales Simplification Act (OSSA), which would implement a hybrid-approach to taxing purchases made remotely. Under the draft, states would be able to impose sales tax on remote sales if the state first participates in a clearinghouse established under the OSSA. Then, remote sales would be taxable if the origin state collects sales taxes, yet at a rate adopted by the destination state. The sales tax rate would be a single state-wide rate determined by each participating state. This is significant as it would eliminate the option for many communities to add additional sales taxes for various local needs. The increasing pressure to pass remote sales tax legislation may have something to do with court cases in South Dakota and Alabama that are challenging a 1992 Supreme Court decision holding that states cannot require retailers with no in-state presence to collect sales tax. Both states have recently enacted rules requiring all retailers who sell more than a certain dollar amount of goods annually in the state to collect sales tax, regardless of physical presence. Overturning the 1992 decision would require the Supreme Court to take up at least one of the cases (and rule in favor of the state) or an act of Congress. Given this, and the reluctance of many Republicans to pass such a law, the issue may remain in the courts for the next several years. However, there is still a small a possibility that remote sales tax language could be included in a broader tax reform package that could be considered in the 115th Congress. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support legislation that requires companies making catalog and internet sales to collect and remit the associated taxes. Support federal tax policies that maintain revenue streams to local governments. FEDERAL ISSUE: Transient Occupancy Taxes BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: In the 111th and 113th Congresses, attempts were made to insert language into various pieces of legislation that would have exempted online travel brokers (Expedia, Travelocity, etc.) from remitting the full bed tax rate collected from consumers to the appropriate local government. For instance, if an online travel broker were to pay $60 for a room in the City of Clearwater and then sell that room to a consumer for $100, they would be able to, under the proposal, only remit $6 dollars to the local government, in this case Pinellas County, instead of $10 (using a 10 percent bed tax for illustrative purposes). In late 2009, seventeen Florida counties, including Pinellas County, filed an action against a number of online travel companies (OTC’s) alleging that the companies have failed to collect and/or pay taxes under the respective tourist development tax ordinances. Those 17 counties agreed to settle with the online travel companies for $6.1 million in 2010. During 2012, there were several Florida State Circuit Court cases that ruled in favor of the online travel brokers. Two cases, including the 17 county case, cited that Florida law is not clear on the issue, while a Circuit Court Judge ruled more directly in July that the OTC’s only owe local tourist taxes on the discounted rates they paid for the rooms. Then, in June of 2015, the Florida Supreme Court affirmed the lower court rulings, stating that online travel companies are not hotels and, therefore, do not have to pay occupancy fees. Meanwhile, in 2012, the District of Columbia government won a suit where a judge ruled that online travel firms should repay back taxes on the full retail price of hotel rooms they sold to consumers in the years after the D.C. City Council passed legislation mandating they do so. In 2014, a conditional settlement was reached in this case with six online travel firms. Although they have a right to appeal the D.C Superior Court decision, they agreed to pay $60.9 million in back taxes to the D.C. government. Between 1998 and 2010, the amount owed in the lawsuit was estimated to be over $200 million. By 2015, local governments had reportedly filed 88 lawsuits against Expedia and others for tax underpayment. The company won dismissal in 23 cases, while 35 remain active. The remainder of the cases have been settled, put on hold, referred to administrative proceedings, or otherwise resolved. A 2011 estimate by the Center for Budget and Policy Priorities suggests that state and local governments lose as much as $396 million a year due to such remittance practices by online hotel purveyors. These examples demonstrate how courts across the country have ruled differently on this issue over the past few years, which has led online travel purveyors to continue to seek federal legislation that would codify their goal of not remitting taxes on the price of the hotel room paid by the consumer. In 2012, several of these online discount travel brokers (including Expedia, Orbitz, and Priceline) organized and registered to lobby under a new organization called the “Interactive Travel Services Association,” whose purpose is to advocate on several issues, including “taxes and fees related to travel.” In May 2013, Expedia and other online hotel room purveyors attempted to amend the Marketplace Fairness Act to achieve their transient occupancy tax objectives. Ultimately, this effort was unsuccessful and the bill was passed out of the Senate without this language. In FY 2016, Pinellas County collected a record $49.5 million in transient occupancy taxes, a 25.9 percent increase over the previous year. This increase was partially fueled a one percent increase in the Tourist Development Tax rate and by Pinellas County’s agreement with AirBnB to collect and remit taxes on their rentals. These taxes are used to support the tourism industry in the region as well as to fund certain capital projects, as defined by Florida Statute. The City of Clearwater submitted three applications for funding with the Tourist Development Council for the 2017 round of capital funding. Additionally, the Clearwater Marine Aquarium has also applied for funding. The importance of these projects to the City of Clearwater underscores the significance of this revenue source and the need to ensure it is not constrained by detrimental legislation. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Oppose legislation that would exempt online travel brokers from paying taxes on the full room rate paid by the consumer, thereby costing Pinellas County the opportunity to collect appropriate Transient Occupancy Taxes from visitors to the region. FEDERAL ISSUE: Proposed Spending Reductions BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: In mid-March, the Trump Administration released its so-called Fiscal Year (FY) 2018 “skinny” budget, a 62-page document that very generally proposes overall spending levels for the federal government for the next fiscal year. Among those agencies that fare best include the departments of Defense (10% increase), Homeland Security (6.8% increase), Veterans Affairs (5.9% increase), and the National Nuclear Security Administration (an 11% increase - imbedded in the Energy Department budget, which gets an overall decrease of 5.6%). Meanwhile, those agencies that face the most significant budget reductions include the following: EPA (31.4%), HHS (16.2%), State/U.S. AID (28%), Labor (20+%), Agriculture (21%), Transportation (12%), Commerce (16%), Education (13%), HUD (13.2%), Interior (12%). The President is expected to release a full FY 2018 budget in May that will provide much more detail than we have now. Furthermore, the Administration released a supplemental spending request for FY 2017 that proposes to also cut a number of key City programs. Congress ultimately funds the government and can ignore much of what the President has recommended, but the FY 2017 supplemental and FY 2018 budget proposes so many reductions or whole elimination of programs while significantly boosting spending in other areas (defense, a southern wall, for instance) that many members of Congress support and will therefore be difficult to restore all funding to domestic agencies or programs of importance. If a piece of the pie gets bigger, the entire pie is not likely to grow – instead other pieces will get smaller. Among other things, following are a number of areas of concern with the FY 2017 supplemental and FY 2018 budget. They include: • The proposal to cut funding in half for the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program in FY 2017 and then to proceed to eliminate the program entirely in FY 2018 would prevent the City from addressing essential community development needs and serving the less fortunate in our community. The City receives a direct allocation through the program and we request that the funding level for the program remain at least level with the FY 2016 amount of $3 billion. In FY 2016, the City received $667,634 in CDBG funds. • Elimination of the HOME Investment Partnership (HOME) program would greatly impact the City’s ability to connect our citizens with affordable, accessible housing. We support maintaining the current funding level of $950 million. In FY 2016, the City received $285,328 in HOME funds. • The drastic cuts of $310 million in FY 2017 and $490 million in FY 2018 in Department of Justice grant programs would impact the City’s ability to keep our citizens safe. Programs such as the Byrne Justice Assistance Grants (JAG) allow the City to address public safety needs. • The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) is impacted in two ways by the Administration’s proposal. The first is a suggestion to restructure the program “to ensure that the cost of Government services is not subsidized by taxpayers who do not directly benefit from those programs”. Although there is no additional detail provided, it is essential that flood insurance remain affordable for our citizens. • The second change to the NFIP is a proposal to eliminate the appropriation for the NFIP’s Flood Hazard Mapping Program and potentially pay for these activities by adding another surcharge onto NFIP policies. With over 12,000 NFIP policies in force in Clearwater on both commercial and residential properties, the affordability and stability of the NFIP is of vital importance to the City. • Reduced funding to the Army Corps of Engineers by over $100 million for FY 2017 and by $1 billion in FY 2018 will directly impact projects important to the City, such as the nourishment of Sand Key. • The proposal for FY 2017 to cut funding for the Economic Development Administration in half and then eliminate all remaining funding in FY 2018 would be detrimental to the City’s ongoing economic development efforts. It is essential to support continued economic vitality and job opportunities in our community. Many of these programs have been targeted before, often most recently by President Obama’s Deficit Commission from 2010. While it is hard to know exactly how seriously to take these proposed cuts, it is clear there is significant pressure to reduce domestic discretionary spending (as opposed to military or non-discretionary programs like Social Security). Also, even if President Trump proposed these types of cuts, Congress would have to agree with them, which is far from a certainty. Another threat to discretionary spending is sequestration. The Budget Control Act (passed in 2011) established budgetary caps in law for discretionary spending – one cap for defense accounts and another for non-defense accounts – through FY 2021. The penalty for spending over the caps is a sequestration of funds to ensure spending is in line with the budgetary caps established in law. Sequestration would result in a percentage-based cut to every account, program and project funded by discretionary spending. For FY 2018, many Members of Congress are concerned about the discretionary spending caps being too restrictive. Since the budget caps are established by law, Congress does have the power to change the law to allow for higher spending levels. They did this in October 2015 when they reached a budget deal for FY 2016 and FY 2017 for new top-line spending levels. Some lawmakers believe the best path forward for FY 2018 is to pass a budget resolution and write appropriations bills to the sequestration spending levels established in law and negotiate a “better” budget deal later in the year when it becomes obvious that the spending bills don’t have the votes to pass Congress, similar to what happened in FY 2016. Another concern regarding sequestration and spending caps is the potential for the Administration and some Members of Congress to attempt to violate the “firewall” between defense and non-defense spending. The rationale for creating separate top-line spending levels for defense and non-defense programs was to mitigate concerns that there would be attempts to skew the spending allocation in favor of defense. While the “firewall” is established in law, that doesn’t mean that some won’t try to enact changes to allow for a boost to our military budget at the expense of non-defense discretionary spending. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Monitor proposed cuts to non-defense discretionary programs of importance to the City of Clearwater. FEDERAL ISSUE: Infrastructure Investment BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: Traditionally, Congress has invested in infrastructure via a number of methods, primarily through legislation or programs like transportation authorizations, Federal Aviation Administration authorizations, revolving loan funds, through the tax code via bond programs, or earmarks prior to 2009. The last big influx of new and unexpected investment in infrastructure occurred via the 2009 Stimulus bill, which, among other things provided $105.3 billion for infrastructure, including $48.1 billion on transportation, $18 billion on water, environment, and public lands, and the remainder on government buildings, telecommunications and broadband, and energy infrastructure. Recently however, federal funding for infrastructure still fell to a 30-year low as a share of Gross Domestic Product. The American Society of Civil Engineers said in its latest report that $3.6 trillion was needed to bring all segments of U.S. infrastructure up to a state of good repair. In response, the Trump Administration has made bold promises to invest $1 trillion in infrastructure over ten years. President Trump has given few details about his plans, but has said he would like the private sector to provide much of the funding. He has also indicated funding could be available not just for roads and bridges, but also for airports, schools and hospitals. The most detailed plan, authored by Wilbur Ross, the nominee for Secretary of Commerce, and economist Peter Navarro, suggests there will be $1 trillion in "cost-neutral" investment funded mostly with repatriated foreign corporate income. More specifically, Trump has proposed reducing the rate companies would pay to bring cash held overseas by U.S. corporations to 10 percent, down from 35 percent. Those companies then could invest in infrastructure projects, benefit from a new 82 percent tax credit and effectively erase their 10 percent repatriation tax. However, lowering the cost of money with tax credits to investors may not entice the kind of investment suggested because local governments already have access to the municipal bond market, which benefits from the lowest financing costs in more than 50 years. The Congressional Budget Office reported in 2015 that just 26 private-investment projects were completed or underway nationwide. Meanwhile, the Trump Administration and Congress will also have to decide whether to allow investment in new projects or upgrade existing infrastructure. Private investors are more likely to invest if they can make a profit. That often means tolls on roads and bridges, rate increases on water infrastructure, or property taxes on other projects. That becomes more difficult for environmental improvements or projects located in more rural areas. Also, voters have shown a reluctance to accept tolling on existing infrastructure. With regard to specific infrastructure projects, in late January 2017, a list of 50 infrastructure projects was circulated. The origin of the list is somewhat unclear with conflicting reports that it was compiled by the Trump transition team or by the National Governor’s Association for the Trump transition team. The list mentions that the projects would be funded with 50% private investment. However, there is no additional public discussion regarding projects or a more formal plan, including how to pay for it using either public or private funds. These projects may be reflective of the type of infrastructure investment that will be supported by the Trump Administration. Lastly, during his first week in office, Senate Democrats called President Trump’s bluff (so to speak) and outlined an ambitious proposal to spend $1 trillion on a broad range of infrastructure projects over the next ten years. Since the announcement, neither the President nor Republican members of Congress have responded in any significant way to the Democrats’ offer. The proposal suggests the following investments: Reconstruct Roads & Bridges $100B Improve Airports $30B Revitalize Main Street $100B Address Ports & Waterways $10B Expand TIGER $10B Build Resilient Communities $25B Rehabilitate Water and Sewer $110B 21st Century Energy Infrastructure $100B Modernize Rail Infrastructure $50B Expand Broadband $20B Repair & Expand Transit $130B Invest in Public Lands & Tribal Infrastructure $20B Vital Infrastructure Program $200B Modernize VA Hospitals $10B Rebuild Public Schools $75B Provide Innovative Financing Tools $10B Congressional Republicans on the other hand, continue to discuss a desire to provide more funding for infrastructure, but have not offered a formal proposal or a specific time as to when they may be able to tackle the issue given other priorities. Some continue to look at repatriation of corporate foreign income as an at least partial funding source, while others suggest those funds should be used for tax reform. There is little to no talk of Congress simply using deficit spending to fund infrastructure. While it is unclear how this discussion will progress during the 115th Congress, it is possible that new infrastructure investment opportunities could be created and used to fund projects in Clearwater. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support new federal investment in infrastructure. Support all opportunities to secure funding for Clearwater’s infrastructure priorities. FEDERAL ISSUE: Alternative Fuel Tax Incentives BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: An older transportation authorization bill, known as SAFETEA-LU, provided a tax incentive for natural gas when used as a motor vehicle fuel. The $0.50 per gallon equivalent incentive, which is provided to businesses, individuals, and tax-exempt entities that sell the fuel, essentially serves as a rebate. In the fall of 2011, the City of Clearwater opened the first public natural gas filling station in the Tampa Bay area, and takes advantage of this tax incentive with every gallon of gas sold. In 2015, the rebate provided $150,263 to the City, nearly double the previous year. In addition, the City recently dropped its station full price to $1.17 per gasoline gallon equivalent (GGE) and $0.98 per GGE for government vehicles, which is the lowest price in Florida and possibly the southeastern United States. The $0.50 incentive originally expired at the end of Fiscal Year 2009, and has been extended five times, most recently as part of a broad “tax extenders” package passed in December 2015. This extension is for two years, including a retroactive extension for 2015. The incentive expired on December 31, 2016. Various industry organizations will continue to pursue the extension in the 115th Congress. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support the retroactive extension of a $0.50 per gallon equivalent tax incentive for natural gas when used as a motor fuel. FEDERAL ISSUE: Metropolitan Planning Organization Coordination and Planning Area Reform BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: In the summer of 2016, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Federal Transit Administration’s (FTA) issued a joint Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) for “Metropolitan Planning Organization Coordination and Planning Area Reform.” At the time, there were concerns that the NPRM could make significant changes to the structure and functioning of roughly one-third of the nation’s Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs), potentially including the Pinellas County MPO, Forward Pinellas. Subsequently, a final rule on the subject was released in January 2017. The final rule does a few things. First, it changes the regulatory definition of a Metropolitan Planning Area (MPA) to require that a MPA include the entire urbanized area (UZA), as well as the contiguous area expected to become urbanized in the next 20 years. For clarification purposes, UZA is a census- designated term given to an area when it reaches 50,000 in population. This may mean merging existing MPAs when multiple exist within a UZA. Under prior regulations, MPA boundaries were determined largely by the MPO and Governor’s criteria. However, boundaries will now be established by federal regulation while making MPA boundaries the defining basis for developing a likely single transportation plans. Therefore, if there are multiple MPOs within each new MPA, the relevant Governor(s) and MPOs would determine whether or not a merger of the existing MPOs is appropriate. If they jointly determine that is not appropriate to have more than one MPO in a MPA, the MPOs have the choice of: 1) merging; or 2) changing the MPO boundaries so there is only one MPO in the new MPA. However, if they jointly determine that it is appropriate to have more than one MPO (assuming the “size and complexity of the MPA makes the designation of multiple MPOs appropriate”), then the MPOs must jointly: 1) produce one set of planning documents for each MPA; and 2) establish a written agreement that defines procedures for joint decision making between the multiple MPOs. In either case, planning agreements would be required under this proposal to include coordination and dispute resolution strategies between the state and the MPO, as well as MPO to MPO. The final rule establishes criteria under which MPOs may seek an exception from the requirement that each MPA have only one set of planning documents. This exception, if approved by the Secretary, would allow multiple MPOs in an MPA to continue to exist separately and generate separate planning documents in cases where it is not feasible for MPOs to prepare unified planning products. In order to gain an exception, all MPOs in the MPA and their Governor(s) must submit a joint written request and justification to the Secretary. The submittal must: (1) explain why it is not feasible, for reasons beyond the control of the Governor(s) and MPOs, for the multiple MPOs in the MPA to produce unified planning products; and (2) demonstrate how the multiple MPOs in the MPA are already coordinating with each other and producing consistent planning documents and performance targets. If the Secretary does not approve the request, the Governors and the MPOs will be given written notice as to why the exception was denied and will be able to submit supplemental information to address the deficiencies. The Secretary will then make a final determination based on that information. An approved exception is permanent, but FHWA and FTA will routinely perform reviews to ensure the coordination requirements are being met. Lastly, FHWA and FTA will produce guidance outlining situations where exceptions may be appropriate, as well as suggestions as to how Governors and MPOs can best demonstrate that their current coordination efforts meet the exception requirements. The final rule also phases in implementation of the coordination requirements and the requirements for MPA boundary and MPO jurisdiction agreements. Under the final rule, compliance is required within two years after the date the Census Bureau releases its notice of Qualifying Urban Areas following each decennial census (with 2020 being the next decennial census). This is a significant change from the original proposed timeline for compliance, which was within two years of the rule going into effect. FHWA and FTA claim the goal of the rule is to promote more effective regional planning. However, there are concerns surrounding the agencies’ approach, including: • Complexity and Cost: Merging MPOs would seemingly be a complex process, even when the parties are willing participants. This could also be the case in developing unified planning documents between two or more organizations. • One Size Fits All - Each region is unique and should take a localized approach to planning. This proposal, however, seems to suggest taking a one-size-fits-all approach, which could possibly hinder, more than help, regional planning. It certainly also could remove local control from a variety of decisions. • Uncertainty: There is uncertainty surrounding the impact on Transportation Management Areas (TMAs), which are areas with a population of 200,00 or more; and the potential for creation of new MPOs in the future. There is also significant concern as to how the disruption caused by this rule may impact both short- and long-term planning efforts. • Question of Necessity: Many MPOs are already working across jurisdictional lines to coordinate planning efforts. This suggests there may be no need for a new federal regulation. A better option may be for the agencies to develop incentives that would encourage greater collaboration among existing MPOs. On March 8, 2017, the Senate passed S. 496 by Unanimous Consent. This bill repealed the rule. A similar bill has been introduced in the House, H.R. 1346, by Congressman Lipinski. The bill has 26 bipartisan co-sponsors including Congressmen Webster and Mast from Florida. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Monitor implementation of the Metropolitan Planning Organization Coordination and Planning Area Reform rule by the Federal Highway Administration and Federal Transit Administration. FEDERAL ISSUE: Public Safety Programs BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: Federal grant funding for many Department of Justice (DOJ) and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) programs are provided as block grants with each state receiving a certain amount of funding, generally linked to population. That funding is then passed through to local jurisdictions to help support police, fire, emergency management, and homeland security functions of government. The Byrne Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) is an example of this. In other instances, funding from federal programs is made available to local governments via competitive grant solicitations. Specifically, program funds can be used to hire police officers through Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) or firefighters through Staffing for Adequate Fire & Emergency Response Grants (SAFER), and purchase equipment through the Assistance to Firefighters Grant (AFG). There is also another category of grants that are distributed to specific recipients based on certain criteria, such as the Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI), which provides funds to eligible regions to help communities prepare for, prevent, respond to and recover from potential attacks and other hazards. The City of Clearwater benefits from both direct and indirect annual allocations from several of these federal programs, while other programs offer competitive grant opportunities from which the City has traditionally sought funds. In FY 2015, Congress provided level funding for the COPS and JAG programs at $180 million and $376 million, respectively. Both the AFG and SAFER fire-related grants each received $340 million, and UASI received $600 million. For FY 2016, COPS and JAG were provided with $187 million and $476 million, respectively. Congress provided $345 million each for AFG and SAFER, $600 million for UASI, and $350 million for EMPG. For FY 2017, the Senate included $389 million for the JAG program and $187 million for the COPS program while the House included $425 million for the JAG program and $0 for the COPS program in their versions of the FY 2017 Commerce, Justice and Science Appropriations bill. With regard to the homeland security programs, the House and Senate included $340 million for each of the SAFER and AFG programs, $350 million for EMPG, and $600 million for UASI in their respective versions of the FY 2017 Homeland Security Appropriations bill. The federal government is currently operating under a Continuing Resolution through April 28, 2017. The FY 2017 appropriations process is not expected to be completed until that time. The Trump Administration’s FY 2018 budget proposal includes cuts of $490 million to Department of Justice grant programs and cuts of $667 million in FEMA and Homeland Security grant programs. Little detail is available at this time as to which specific programs would be cut or eliminated under the proposal. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support continued adequate funding for a wide variety of Department of Justice and Department of Homeland Security grants, e.g., Community Oriented Policing Services, Byrne Justice Assistance Grants, Assistance to Firefighters Grants, Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response Grants, and the Urban Area Security Initiative. Support any City of Clearwater applications for these funds. FEDERAL ISSUE: Department of Housing and Urban Development Formula Programs (CDBG & HOME) BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: The City of Clearwater receives direct allocations of funding from two Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) formula programs: HOME Investment Partnerships (HOME) and the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program. HOME funds are designed to create affordable housing for low-income households and are awarded annually as formula grants to participating jurisdictions, including the City of Clearwater. HUD establishes HOME Investment Trust Funds for each grantee, providing a line of credit that the jurisdiction may draw upon as needed. The program allows local governments to use HOME funds for grants, direct loans, loan guarantees or other forms of credit enhancement, rental assistance, or security deposits. Meanwhile, CDBG is a flexible grant program that provides communities with federal funding to address a wide range of unique community development needs. The CDBG program provides annual grants on a formula basis to units of local government and states, including the City of Clearwater. Since Fiscal Year (FY) 2010, nationwide funding for the HOME and CDBG programs has been cut by 48 percent and 25 percent, respectively, with varying changes to individual recipients. In FY 2016, $3 billion was provided for the CDBG program, which was a decrease in funding from FY 2015 of less than one percent. HOME, meanwhile, received a small increase from $900 million to $950 million. In FY 2016, Clearwater received $667,634 in CDBG funds and $285,328 in HOME funding. For FY 2017, both the House and Senate have proposed continuing to fund the CDBG and HOME at the levels of $3 million and $950 million respectively. The budget proposal released by the Trump administration eliminates both CDBG and the HOME program. This would have a detrimental impact to the City. Although it remains to be seen whether the 115th Congress will agree with this proposal, an elimination of the programs or a reduction in their funding levels is now a part of the discussion in the formation of the FY 2018 budget. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support adequate funding for future fiscal years for both the Community Development Block Grant and the HOME Investment Partnerships programs because of their critical role in the City’s overall efforts to support those that are least fortunate. FEDERAL ISSUE: Environmental Protection Agency’s Brownfields Program BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) administers a cleanup program to provide financial assistance to state, local, and tribal governmental entities for certain types of contaminated industrial sites, referred to as “brownfields.” Sites eligible for this assistance tend to be where the known or suspected presence of contamination may present an impediment to economic development, but where the risks generally are not high enough for the site to be addressed under the Superfund program or other related cleanup authorities. The brownfields program focuses on providing federal financial assistance for “orphan” sites at which the potential need for cleanup remains unaddressed. EPA’s brownfields program awards two different categories of grants: one competitive and one formula- based. The City of Clearwater is only eligible for the former of the two. Within the competitive grant program, the EPA offers assessment, cleanup, and revolving loan fund grants. An eligible entity may apply for up to $200,000 for a site contaminated by hazardous substances, pollutants, or contaminants; and up to $200,000 for a site contaminated by petroleum. However, applicants can seek a waiver and request up to $350,000 for assessments in certain cases. In the near future, Clearwater may have a need to obtain additional cleanup funding for various sites. Unfortunately, the current limitation of $200,000 per project is extremely restrictive, as many site cleanups exceed $1 million. To facilitate site remediation and reuse, the funding maximum should be increased to allow for necessary resources to remediate orphan brownfield sites. Clearwater’s Brownfields Area (CBA) covers 1,842 acres and includes over 250 regulatory listed sites in over 7,000 properties. Over 125 of these sites have reported contamination. These sites range in size from less than one acre to greater than 40 acres. The CBA economic development potential has greatly decreased over the past 30 years. Private disinvestment combined with environmental decline has left an indelible mark on the area, characterized by business and job loss, impacting the CBA by leaving a legacy of abandoned lands tainted by former gas stations, dry cleaning facilities, print shops, and other similar uses. As a result of crime, distress, and economic deterioration, the CBA was designated a U.S. Department of Justice Operation Weed & Seed site in 1996, and a portion of the area has also been designated a Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone) by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The City of Clearwater has implemented one of the most successful brownfields programs in the country, having completed over 100 assessment projects. The City, however, continues to have significant health, welfare, and environmental issues that need to be addressed. Clearwater has identified more than 125 additional contaminated sites in the CBA that may require environmental assessment. The City will need federal funding for these and previously assessed sites to complete reuse planning and cleanup. In January of 2013, the City applied for an FY 2014 EPA Brownfields Assessment Grant in the amount of $400,000 ($200,000 each to assess potential hazardous substances and petroleum or petroleum product impacted properties within the CBA). In FY 2014, the Section 104(k) competitive grant program received $90 million, but saw a reduction in funding to $80 million in FY 2015. Meanwhile, in the FY 2016 omnibus appropriations bill, Congress maintained funding for the Section 104(k) competitive grant program at $80 million. Congress currently proposes maintaining the same funding level of $80 million for FY 2017, however the appropriations process is still ongoing at this time. In June 2015, Senator Jim Inhofe (R-OK), along with five other bipartisan Senators, reintroduced the Brownfields Utilization, Investment, and Local Development (BUILD) Act to reauthorize the brownfields program through 2018. The bill would maintain the current authorization level of $250 million per year; increase the previously mentioned $200,000 funding limit per project to $500,000, while giving the EPA the discretion to raise the limit to $650,000 if necessary; and provide for the creation of multipurpose grants, allowing local governments to obtain up to $950,000 to do site inventory, assessments, planning, or remediation for one or more brownfields sites. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support continued adequate annual funding for the Environmental Protection Agency’s brownfields program, including at least $90 million for the Section 104(k) competitive grant program. Support legislation to reauthorize the Environmental Protection Agency’s brownfields program. Support any City of Clearwater applications for brownfields funding assistance. FEDERAL ISSUE: Supportive Housing for the Elderly and for Persons with Disabilities - Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Section 202 and 811 Programs BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: The Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Section 202 program helps expand the supply of affordable housing with supportive services for the elderly by providing interest-free capital advances to private, nonprofit sponsors to finance the development of housing. The capital advance does not have to be repaid as long as the project serves very low-income elderly persons for 40 years. The Section 202 program also provides project rental assistance funds to cover the difference between the HUD-approved operating cost for the project and the tenants' contribution towards rent. Project rental assistance contracts are approved initially for three years and are renewable based on the availability of funds. Meanwhile, the HUD Section 811 program is authorized to provide funding to develop and subsidize rental housing with an availability of supportive services for very low-income adults with disabilities. Traditionally, the Section 811 program provided interest-free capital advances and operating subsidies to nonprofit developers of affordable housing for persons with disabilities, in a similar manner to the Section 202 program. However, in Fiscal Year 2012, Congress chose not to fund these activities, and instead has moved toward providing funding for rental assistance. These funds go to state housing agencies that have entered into partnerships with state health and human services and Medicaid agencies, and are distributed to multifamily housing complexes that provide a range of services for the disabled. In Pinellas County, the non-profit Boley Centers, Inc. receives HUD Section 202 and 811 funding to distribute to several housing complexes throughout the County, including the Jerry Howe Transitional Apartments in Clearwater, which provides housing for disabled veterans. In the FY 2015 omnibus appropriations bill, both the Supportive Housing for the Elderly program and the Supportive Housing for Persons with Disabilities program received increases to $420 million and $135 million, respectively. For FY 2016, the Administration’s budget proposed an increase in funding for the Section 202 and 811 programs to $455 million and $177 million, respectively. Congress, however, appropriated $433 million for Section 202 and $151 for Section 811 in the FY 2016 omnibus. For FY 2017, Congress has proposed and increase in funding to $505 million for Section 202 and $154 million for Section 811. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support continued adequate annual federal funding for the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Supportive Housing for the Elderly program (Section 202) and Supportive Housing for Persons with Disabilities program (Section 811). FEDERAL ISSUE: Homeless Assistance Competitive Grants – Continuum of Care Program BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: In 1987, Congress passed the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act, as a response to the increase in homelessness in the United States. It originally created several programs within the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) that focused on combating the root causes of homelessness. The McKinney-Vento Act has been amended many times, most recently in 2009, when President Obama signed the Homeless Emergency Assistance and Rapid Transition to Housing (HEARTH) Act, which updated and expanded the definition of homelessness and made changes to existing programs under McKinney-Vento. Under the HEARTH Act, three previously separate HUD homeless assistance programs, the Supportive Housing Program (SHP), Shelter Plus Care program (S+C), and Single Room Occupancy (SRO) program, were grouped under the single umbrella Continuum of Care (CoC) program. The CoC program provides competitive grant funding to local governments and non-profits, and requires communities seeking funds to develop a Continuum of Care system designed to address the critical problem of homelessness through a coordinated community-based process of identifying needs and building a system to address them. The approach is predicated on the understanding that homelessness is not caused merely by a lack of shelter, but involves a variety of underlying, unmet needs, including physical, economic, and social. Under the CoC program, the SHP provides assistance to help the homeless transition from their current state to a more stable living situation. The goals of the program are to provide assistance to help the homeless achieve residential stability and foster independence through programs that increase their skill and/or income levels. The S+C program provides rental assistance that, when combined with social services, provides supportive housing for homeless people with disabilities and their families. The program allows for a variety of housing choices, such as group homes or individual units, coupled with a range of supportive services. The SRO was created to expand suitable residential opportunities for homeless individuals. This has been accomplished through compensating owners of eligible SRO residences, for a period of 10 years, for improvements made to kitchen and bathroom facilities in eligible SRO residences, as well as providing rental assistance for the residents that occupy those units. Under the HEARTH Act, HUD also added 12 new eligible activities for funding under the single CoC program, which include the following: housing search mediation or outreach to property owners; credit repair; provision of security or utility deposits; rental assistance for a final month at a location; assistance with moving costs; and/or other activities that help homeless individuals move immediately into housing or would benefit individuals who have moved into permanent housing in the last 6 months. In addition, the HEARTH Act requires established CoC’s to rank their projects for funding into two categories: Tier I new or renewal projects, which are most likely to receive funding; and Tier II new or renewal projects, whose funding is dependent on the resources still available and the strength of the CoC’s application. The Homeless Leadership Board (HLB) is the CoC for Pinellas County and is responsible for the annual HUD CoC Program Combined Application on behalf of its member agencies. The CoC competitive grants are funded through the Homeless Assistance Grants account for HUD. Congress provided $2.135 billion in the omnibus appropriations bill for Homeless Assistance Grants in FY 15 and $2.25 billion in the FY 2016 omnibus appropriations bill. For FY 17, the Administration proposed an increase in funding to $2.664 billion. The Senate recommends $2.33 billion and the House recommends $2.487 billion in their respective versions of the FY 17 Transportation, Housing and Urban Development Appropriations bill. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support continued adequate annual funding for Department of Housing and Urban Development Homeless Assistance Grants, particularly for the Continuum of Care Program. FEDERAL ISSUE: Economic Development Administration BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: The Economic Development Administration (EDA) is primarily a granting agency that funds economic development projects throughout the country. Local governments or non-profits, such as the City of Clearwater, are local sponsors of the projects. Funding from the EDA is used to support private investment and generally funds projects such as road and water infrastructure improvements that can help reinvigorate areas and lead to additional reinvestment in homes and businesses. Successful projects usually leverage roughly 200 new jobs and $24 million in private investment for every $1 million of EDA investment. The City of Clearwater has identified information technology and software as one of its industry clusters with the highest growth potential. The City has been working to develop a coordinated approach to meet the needs of pre-venture, start up, and small-to-medium sized business enterprises. Using the resources and capabilities of local and regional partners, including public, private and non-profit organizations, the initiative envisions the delivery of programs, services, and facilities to help foster and grow this promising industry in Clearwater. Should this prove to be a successful endeavor, it may be possible for the City to work with the EDA to fund a co-location space, and transition the City’s program to a “bricks and mortar” center that allows all partners the opportunity to meet with clients in a centralized location. Congressional initiatives and a 2016 Heritage Foundation report have proposed the elimination of the EDA, as its mission is seen as duplicative by some. In June 2012, the Senate failed to pass the “Economic Development Revitalization Act,” which would have reauthorized the Economic Development Administration (EDA) through 2015. EDA’s authorization expired in September 2008, but funding via the appropriations process has kept it functioning without an authorization. The FY 2016 omnibus appropriations bill provided a slight boost in funding from the prior fiscal year to $261 million. In the FY 2017 budget request, the President proposed to slightly reduce funding for the EDA to $258 million. In their respective FY 2017 appropriations bills, the House has proposed $264.5 million in funding while the Senate has suggested $254 million for the EDA. The budget proposal release by the Trump administration for FY 2018 eliminates funding for the EDA. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support continued funding of the Economic Development Administration. Support City of Clearwater grant applications through EDA programs. FEDERAL ISSUE: Offshore Energy Exploration BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: Active energy drilling currently occurs in both the western and central Gulf of Mexico, while nearly the entire eastern Gulf is protected from drilling until 2022 by the Gulf of Mexico Energy Security Act of 2006 (GOMESA). Drilling does not currently occur off of the Atlantic coast of Florida. Efforts are frequently made in Congress to open up new areas of the Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) for additional offshore energy exploration. The Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee approved a bill titled the Offshore Production and Energizing National Security (OPENS) Act that would allow new energy production on the OCS in the eastern Gulf of Mexico, the South Atlantic, and in the waters off of Alaska. The OPENS Act would also expand offshore revenue sharing to Florida in 2017 for leases in the eastern Gulf of Mexico. Currently, only Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama receive revenue from offshore drilling activities in the Gulf of Mexico. The bill would also direct the Interior Department to hold lease sales in the eastern Gulf in 2018, 2019, 2020, and after 2022. In response to the Committee’s approval of the OPENS Act, Senator Bill Nelson sent a letter to Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) saying he would use “all available procedural options to block it.” Full consideration of the bill on the Senate floor remains uncertain. In the House, meanwhile, members approved an amendment from (former) Rep. David Jolly (R-FL, Pinellas County) to the Fiscal Year (FY) 2016 Interior and Environment Appropriations bill that would prohibit spending FY 2016 dollars on researching, investigating, or studying drilling in the eastern Gulf of Mexico. This amendment, however, was not included in the final FY 2016 omnibus. In early January 2017, Senator Bill Nelson re-introduced his Marine Oil Spill Prevention Act (S. 74). The purpose of the bill is to protect Florida from the threat of offshore drilling until at least 2027. The legislation amends the Gulf of Mexico Energy Security Act of 2006 to extend the moratorium on oil and gas leasing in certain areas in the Gulf of Mexico until June 30, 2027. It sets forth provisions concerning Coast Guard responsibilities, including designating areas that are at heightened risk of oil spills and implementing measures to ameliorate that risk. This bill also amends the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 to establish a Gulf Coast Regional Citizens' Advisory Council to advise on facilities and tank vessels, among other things. President Trump, however, has stated that he intends to open additional onshore and offshore leasing on federal lands and in federal waters, particularly in the Atlantic and the Arctic. It is unclear if he intends to open leases in other areas - and doing so could take up to two years - but the 115th Congress will likely be supportive of attempts to open additional lands and waters to energy exploration and harvesting. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Monitor the potential expansion of offshore energy exploration in Florida’s federal waters. FEDERAL ISSUE: Land and Water Conservation Fund BACKGROUND; HOW IT MAY AFFECT THE CITY OF CLEARWATER: The Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) Act of 1965 was enacted to help preserve, develop, and ensure access to outdoor recreation facilities for our nation. The law created the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF) in the U.S. Treasury as a funding source to implement outdoor recreation goals. Revenues for the fund are derived primarily from oil and gas leasing proceeds in the Outer Continental Shelf. The LWCF has been the principal source of monies for land acquisition for outdoor recreation by four federal agencies—the National Park Service, Bureau of Land Management, Fish and Wildlife Service, and Forest Service. The LWCF also funds a matching grant program via the National Park Service to assist states (and local governments as sub-recipients) in acquiring recreational lands and developing outdoor recreational facilities. A portion of the appropriation is divided equally among the states, with the remainder apportioned based on need, as determined by the Secretary of the Interior. The states award their grant money through a competitive selection process based on statewide recreation plans and establish their own priorities and criteria. Finally, beginning in Fiscal Year (FY) 1998, LWCF has been used to fund other federal programs with related purposes. The LWCF is authorized at $900 million annually. However, Congress determines the level of appropriations each year, and yearly appropriations have fluctuated widely since the origin of the program. Of the total revenues that have accrued throughout the history of the program ($33.5 billion), less than half have been appropriated ($15.8 billion). FY 2001 marked the highest funding ever, with appropriations exceeding the authorized level by reaching nearly $1 billion. In FY 2002, Congress provided the most LWCF funding of the past twenty years for the state grant program: $144 million. For FY 2016, Congress provided a huge boost to the state programs, funding them at $110 million. The Administration then requested level funding in its FY 2017 budget, which the Senate also included in its version of the FY 2017 Interior and Environment Appropriations bill. The House, however, has included $71.8 million in its version of the bill. The federal government is currently operating under a Continuing Resolution through April 28, 2017, and the FY 2017 appropriations process is not expected to be completed until that time. In addition to yearly funding challenges, the current authorization for the LWCF is set to expire at the end of 2018. While this is still roughly two years away, the previous authorization was allowed to lapse for over two months when Congress failed to reauthorize the program after its expiration on October 1, 2015. A three-year reauthorization was finally included in the FY 2016 omnibus. There have been legislative attempts over the past few years to reauthorize the LWCF, on both a permanent and temporary basis. These attempts have often included provisions to reform the program, such as requirements related to how the money is allocated. For example, the Senate version of an energy reform bill Congress worked on for much of 2016 would have permanently reauthorized the program. That bill was not passed prior to the end of session, however, due to timing conflicts, as well as disagreements over a number of provisions, including the language related to the LWCF. Looking ahead, the Chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee, Rob Bishop (R-UT), unveiled draft legislation called the Protecting America’s Recreation and Conservation (PARC) Act in November 2015, which would reauthorize the LWCF for seven years at $900 million annually, but would also significantly reform the LWCF. The legislation would provide 45 percent of LWCF funds to the State Assistance Grant Program, 15 percent to fully fund the Payments in Lieu of Taxes program, 20 percent to fund offshore energy exploration, and 3.5 percent on federal land acquisition. The bill would also require a certain amount of that 3.5 percent to be focused east of the 100th meridian (a north-south line running through the Dakotas and into Texas) in order to prevent the purchase of much more land in the west. As a starting point for the future of the LWCF, it could drastically reshape the program in the future and funnel significantly more money to the state and local programs which could improve the City’s chances of seeing funding for community priorities. RECOMMENDED POSITION: Support an annual appropriation of at least $110 million for the state conservation grant program of the Land and Water Conservation Fund. Support legislation reauthorizing the Land and Water Conservation Fund, including an increased authorization for the state conservation grant program, both of which would better position the City of Clearwater for parks and recreation development projects.

Cover Memo City of Clearwater City Hall 112 S. Osceola Avenue Clearwater, FL 33756 File Number: ID#17-3381 Agenda Date: 4/6/2017 Status: Approval ReviewVersion: 1 File Type: Action ItemIn Control: Police Department Agenda Number: 10.8 SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION: Approve Amendment No. 1 to Letter of Agreement and Contract with University of South Florida Board of Trustees, a public body corporate for the University of South Florida’s Center for Urban Transportation Research (University), High Visibility Enforcement (HVE) for Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety Grant Award for an additional amount of $10,000 for police overtime and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. SUMMARY: On October 5, 2016, City Council granted approval of an Agreement with University of South Florida Board of Trustees under the state HVE program to continue its grant-funded pedestrian and bicycle safety project with Clearwater Police Department (CPD). CPD has conducted three grant-funded comprehensive enforcement/education projects since March 2014 aimed at changing the behavior of all who use Clearwater’s roadways - pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorists. The 2016 Agreement provided funding for a fourth round of funding for this very successful project, which is currently underway. On March 25, 2017, the University extended an invitation to CPD to request an additional $10,000 in funding in order to expand the current project. The funds will be utilized by CPD for 10 additional details, five hours in duration, with three officers per detail. The project period will end on or before May 15, 2017. As with the previous and current grants, selected officers will receive specific training on traffic enforcement and educational opportunities with the public prior to implementation of the project. CPD will also work closely with the University during the project period to ensure accurate data collection and to advise of any problems or successes that are accomplished. There will be no direct adverse impact to the Police Department annual operating budget nor is there a required match. The existing special project number 181-99218, 2016 HVE Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety, will be utilized to account for the additional grant expenditures. APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: At mid-year, a budget amendment will increase grant revenues in special program 181-99218, 2016 HVE Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety by $10,000 to account for this additional funding.
