Agenda Number: 4.1
SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve a proposal by Construction Manager at Risk, Keystone Excavators, Inc., of Oldsmar,
Florida in the amount of $334,345, which includes a 10% contingency, for site work and
construction of a twelve -foot wide pedestrian trail bridge on the Ream Wilson Trail and
authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent)
SUMMARY:
On September 15, 2016, the City Council approved a grant agreement between the City of
Clearwater and the State of Florida, Department of Environmental Protection, Recreation
Trails Program (RTP) for a grant in the amount of $104,637 for replacement of a trail bridge
on the Ream Wilson Trail.
The Ream Wilson Trail is recognized as a National Recreation Trail by the U.S. Department of
Interior. There are only two others with this recognition in Pinellas County (the Pinellas Trail
and the North Bay Trail).
Presently, the existing bridge is six-foot in width and is inadequate for a shared use path. The
bridge was initially installed prior to the development of nationally accepted guidelines for
shared use paths, and was adequate at the time of construction. Since then, the American
Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials’ “Guide for the Development of
Bicycle Facilities” recommends a minimum of a ten-foot width for a shared use path. It is
important to have a wider width due to the high volume of use of this trail.
This contract will include the site preparation, removal and relocation of the existing bridge
and installation of new bridge abutments and a new twelve-foot wide steel truss bridge
including railing and asphalt approaches.
This bridge is located in the northeast corner of the Carpenter Field Complex connecting Cliff
Stephens Park under U.S. 19 viaduct to Carpenter Field and ultimately the trail head at the
Long Center.
No additional operating impacts are needed to support this project.
APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT:
Funds are available in capital improvement project 315-93272 Bicycle Paths-Bridges, to fund
this contract.

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve a proposal by Construction Manager at Risk, Keystone Excavators, Inc., of Oldsmar,
Florida in the amount of $125,797.60, which includes a 10% contingency, for site work,
erosion control and construction of a bridge at Moccasin Lake Nature Park and authorize the
appropriate officials to execute same. (consent)
SUMMARY:
Approximately one year ago, a portion of boardwalk located in the north central portion of
Moccasin Lake Nature Park began to show signs of instability when a stream undercut pilings
supporting the boardwalk. A portion of the boardwalk was closed to protect the public and to
evaluate a workable repair solution.
Construction was to begin in June 2016 to make the necessary repairs however, tropical
storm/hurricane Colin caused additional flooding and damage to the boardwalk and park and
repairs had to be re-evaluated.
After extensive evaluation it was determined that the best course of action would be to install
a bridge across an existing lake upstream of where the boardwalk collapsed. Installing a
new bridge anywhere downstream of the existing weir structure would only invite the
possibility of another bridge collapse in the future.
This proposal by Keystone Evacuators, Inc. will provide for erosion control to the banks of
where the bridge is to be constructed, site work to construct a new shell walkway to connect
with existing boardwalk trail, removal of damaged boardwalk and construction of a new 90
foot bridge.
If approved, Keystone Excavators will begin site work and construction on June 1, 2017 and
be completed with the project no later than August 1, 2017.
Staff will be meeting in the near future to discuss and develop a plan to address the
hydrological needs of the park.
Keystone Excavators was selected under the RFQ process based on qualifications,
experience on similar projects, staff experience and availability, and knowledge of city
standards. Keystone has been the selected low bidder on many past city projects of similar
scope and the City was pleased with their performance.

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve a License Agreement between the Clearwater Audubon Society (CAS), and the City
of Clearwater to operate and maintain the Bird of Prey Program at Moccasin Lake Park and
authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent)
SUMMARY:
For over 30 years, the City of Clearwater has operated and maintained a permanently injured,
non releasable Bird of Prey program. For the last 15 years of that time, the program has
grown with assistance from the CAS volunteers.
Over the last 5 years, due to resource reductions and a shift in programming efforts at
Moccasin Lake Park, staff does not have the capacity to provide the necessary daily
maintenance and care needed for the Birds of Prey Program to continue.
Rather than eliminating the program the CAS has stepped in and offered to fully operate and
maintain the program. CAS will be responsible for all animal care and all associated costs.
This includes the training, feeding, caretaking and maintaining all the Bird of Prey, their
associated equipment and their enclosures. In addition, CAS will provide onsite educational
programming, as well as offsite presentations; annually reaching thousands of school children,
civic organizations, churches and other interested groups.
The City will provide enclosures, space to support the program, sand for the animal
enclosures, processing of background screening for the Bird of Prey volunteers and payment
for the utilities.
Should the Agreement be terminated by either party, the CAS shall be responsible for
relocating the birds to other acceptable locations. The City at its discretion will remove animal
enclosures and all Birds of Prey equipment and facilities.

home field for Clearwater High School.
The renovations will include reconstructing and modernizing the interior of the locker facility to
accommodate 40 individual team lockers, coach’s office with lockers, restroom, and laundry
facilities.
Construction will take place after the current high school baseball season is completed in May
and will take approximately 120 days to complete.
The organizations mentioned in this agenda item contributed a total of $100,000 for this
project. Staff is recommending that Parks and Recreation salary savings be transferred to CIP
315-93656 - Jack Russell Demo/Refurbishment at mid-year to fund the balance of the project
cost.
APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT:
A mid-year budget amendment will increase capital improvement project 315-93656, Jack
Russell Stadium Demo/Refurbishment, by $100,000 in donation revenues, and provide a
transfer of $128,000 from general fund salary savings to fund this project.

Project Number: 0992-0235
City Project Number: 17-0008-UT
1. PROJECT TITLE:
RO2 Well Modifications
2. SCOPE OF SERVICES:
The City of Clearwater (City) constructed 11 new brackish groundwater wells that provide feed
water to Reverse Osmosis Water Treatment Plant No. 2 (RO2). Since the wells have been in
production, the water quality in wells 2-7 (Allen’s Creek East), 2-8 (Allen’s Creek West) and 2-9
(Safety Village) has declined (primarily due to elevated chloride concentrations). This change in
water quality has negatively impacted the operations of RO2, resulting in increased RO
feedwater pressures and suspended solids, along with higher levels of bromide in the source
water supply. SDI Environmental Services, Inc. (SDI) prepared the Review of RO2 Hydrologic
Data (October 20, 2016) that documented the wells issues and provided recommendations to
back plug each of these wells at specific below land surface (BLS) elevations to improve feed
water quality.
The City has requested McKim & Creed to provide professional engineering consulting services
needed to permit, back plug and test the referenced groundwater wells. The work included
with this scope of services includes the following tasks:

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve an Engineer of Record (EOR) work order to McKim and Creed, Inc. in the amount of
$195,300.00 to provide a systematic inspection of the Beach Area sanitary manholes and
perform night flow isolations study; and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same.
(consent)
SUMMARY:
Recent Inflow and Infiltration (I&I) investigations have determined that there is extensive
brackish ground water infiltrating the sanitary sewer system located on the City’s barrier
islands. A significant portion of this flow is attributed to leaky manholes. This type of infiltration
negatively affects the operation of the Marshall Street Water Reclamation Facility resulting in
lower quality (higher chloride) reclaimed water production.
The manhole inspections and night flow isolations study will be performed during the 2017
summer rainy season with the final report issued shortly thereafter. It is hoped that the
findings will result in future I&I reducing repairs & remediation during the dry winter months of
2017/2018.
This work order was negotiated in accordance with the Consultant’s Competitive Negotiations
Act.

1.PROJECT TITLE:Sanitary Sewer Infiltration Source Investigation Program –
Phase 1 (Beach Area Manholes)
2.SCOPE OF SERVICES:
The City of Clearwater (City) has been experiencing high levels of storm water related
inflow and groundwater infiltration. The City is now proposing to begin a sanitary sewer
infiltration source investigation program to identify locations where excessive
groundwater is entering the wastewater collection systems. The first phase of the
program will focus on the ‘Clearwater Beach Area’ where the gravity sewer system is
exposed to both constant groundwater and tidally influenced saltwater infiltration.
The ‘Beach Area’ includes the wastewater collection systems in the following Lift Station
Service Areas: 9, 10, 11, 14, 20, 28, 35, 39 and 45. The proposed ‘Program’ includes the
completion of comprehensive manhole inspections and night flow isolations on gravity
sewers which are determined to be below the groundwater table and affected by tidal
fluctuation. The following identifies the tasks that will be undertaken as part of the
project:
Task 1.1 – Project Administration, Data Collection and Review:Task includes project
setup, monthly progress reports and invoicing. Review of Record Drawings and other
wastewater system data layouts.
Task 1.2 – Manhole Inspections:
McKim & Creed shall perform individual manhole inspections on all structures located
within the “Beach Area”. Manhole inspections will utilize a 2-pass process:
First pass – document the existence of a manhole insert, active infiltration and
significant structural/O&M defects; the number of manholes identified that
will be inspected under this phase of work shall be 670 structures.
Second pass – full inspection using digital side scanning equipment. Digital
side scanning results and first pass results will allow for immediate
WORK ORDER INITIATION FORM 2 of 7 Revised: 2/11/2016
development of rehabilitation projects (scope of repairs, mapping,
specifications & costs identified) It is estimated that 75 percent of the
structures will require a Level 2 inspection, therefore 503 structures will be
inspected under this phase of the work.
Manhole inspections will be conducted only during the wet weather summer months
when groundwater elevations are at the highest levels
Task 1.3 – Night Flow Isolations:
Night flow isolations will be completed on all gravity sewers that are determined to be
under the groundwater table during all tidal conditions. It has been estimated that 65
percent of the 670 Gravity Sewers, approximately 436, that are below the groundwater
table will be included under this phase of the work. Night flow isolation results will be
utilized to determine which gravity sewers experience excessive groundwater
infiltration and require closed circuit television (CCTV) inspection to determine how to
remediate the condition. Night flow isolations will be conducted only during the wet
weather summer months when groundwater elevations are at the highest levels
Task 1.4 – Draft Technical Report: The results of the manhole inspections, night flow
isolations and recommended manhole rehabilitation and CCTV inspection will be
tracked using an asset management driven approach that incorporates a GIS interface.
A draft technical report with findings, recommendations and conceptual cost estimates
will be submitted to the City. Submit five (5) hard copies and an electronic PDF copy (via
e-mail) of technical memo. Attend review meeting with City staff to discuss findings and
recommendations. Prepare and distribute meeting minutes to attendees.
Task 1.5 – Final Technical Report: Incorporate comments from review meeting and
finalize the technical report to include an updated cost estimate. Submit five (5) signed
& sealed hard copies and an electronic PDF copy of memo (via e-mail).
Task 1.6 – Bid Document Preparation:Bid Document Preparation - Develop bid
documents (plans and specs) based on the City’s current standards for cleaning and
lining specifications which include the approved materials and methods for successful
completion of the necessary rehabilitation using third party contractor(s), or contractor
previously selected by the City. The construction documents to be provided by McKim

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Update on the transportation planning work program conducted by the Planning and
Development Department. (WSO)
SUMMARY:
The provision of adequate transportation facilities infrastructure is one of the most important
components needed to support future redevelopment and increase investors’ confidence in
the City of Clearwater. Facilitating the movement of people and goods safely and efficiently is
of utmost importance to ensure the success of the City, and a multi-modal choice approach
will be necessary in order to accommodate future growth without sacrificing roadway mobility
efficiency. In Fiscal Year 2016/17, the City created a new Transportation Planner position
within the Planning and Development Department, recognizing the need for long-term
transportation planning, plans integration and coordination activities with regional and local
agencies. Planning and Development Department staff has created a roadmap for the City of
Clearwater to achieve its objectives for a safe, efficient, and convenient transportation system.
The Planning and Development Department will provide City Council with an update on its
transportation planning initiatives, including:
·Complete Streets Planning
·Bicycle Friendly Community (BFC) Certification
·Updates to Shifting Gears, the City’s Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan
·Other Transportation Planning Projects
One of the priorities is to develop a Complete Streets Implementation Plan. The objectives of
this Plan are to:
·Adopt a Complete Streets Policy for the City of Clearwater
·Build stakeholders’ consensus (internally and externally) on the elements of Complete
Streets
·Develop a framework for projects prioritization and delivery process
·Adopt Complete Streets design guidelines for the City of Clearwater
·Provide an implementation action plan
In March 2017, the City was awarded a grant from Forward Pinellas to develop a Complete
Streets Concept Design for Drew Street. If the City Council chooses to accept this grant, the
Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 5/10/2017
File Number: ID#17-3460
Drew Street project will serve as a pilot project supporting the development of the citywide
Complete Streets plan. The unique characteristics of Drew Street offer a great opportunity to
test and evaluate a wide range of Complete Street strategies.
The Planning and Development Department has already started preliminary work to update to
the City’s 2006 Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan, Shifting Gears, which will be completed
in-house, alongside the other transportation planning projects. This update will include an
assessment of the effectiveness of plan implementation to date, as well the creation of an
updated bicycle and pedestrian facilities inventory and projects status list. In conjunction with
the other projects, it may be necessary to re-define the vision, goals and objectives within the
plan.
In response to City Council’s desire to become a Bicycle Friendly City (BFC), a designation
administered by The League of American Bicyclists (the League), staff has conducted an
initial assessment using the League’s designation assessment chart “The Building Blocks of a
Bicycle Friendly Community.” The BFC designation is based on how well a city is providing
safe accommodations for bicycling and encouraging people to bike for transportation and
recreation. A city’s award level is determined by evaluating a city’s facilities based on five
overall attributes and three key outcomes.
Based on information from Shifting Gears, complemented by available current information, the
initial assessment indicated that the City has a strong system of regional recreational trails,
and there is great potential for rapidly increasing bicycle ridership by enhancing connectivity to
the existing trails. However, overall the City scored poorly due to the limited bicycle facilities,
low bicycle ridership, and other metrics factored in by the League. For example, under the
Engineering attributes, the BFC designation takes into account the total bicycle network
mileage to total road network mileage. The City’s biking facilities total mileage makes up only
9% of the total roadway network, where at least 26% is required to achieve the BFC-Bronze
designation, or an additional 86 miles of biking facilities for this one measure.
The Complete Streets Implementation Plan project and the update to Shifting Gears will
address several items necessary to achieve the BFC-Bronze designation, including:
·Assessing the effectiveness of the Shifting Gears implementation plan (i.e., policies,
strategies, and actions)
·Establishing a Bicycle/Pedestrian Advisory Group
·Developing a biking facilities inventory system, a GIS-based system
·Developing an active projects status list to track all related projects (proposed,
approved, under construction/ maintenance, and completed)
·Developing a framework for projects prioritizations with robust evaluation methodology
and fair selection criteria that considers (cost, connectivity, safety, demand, and equity)
·Developing performance measure metrics
In addition to identifying what larger projects the City should consider undertaking to
strengthen its network, the Planning and Development Department will provide a brief
summary of other work being completed as part of this update on the transportation planning

THE BUILDING BLOCKS OF A BICYCLE FRIENDLY COMMUNITY
GETTING STARTEDMAKING PROGRESSSETTING THE STANDARD
There’s no single route to becoming a Bicycle Friendly Community. In fact, the beauty of the BFC
program is the recognition that no two communities are the same and each can capitalize on its own
unique strengths to make biking better. But, over the past decade, we’ve pored through nearly 600
applications and identified the key benchmarks that define the BFC award levels. Here’s a glimpse at
the average performance of the BFCs in important categories, like ridership, safety and education.

Bicycling

Bike lanes and other infrastructure
draw more cyclists and spur rising
property values.
EDWARD T. McMAHON
WHAT IS THE FASTEST- GROWING means
of transportation in the United States?
The bicycle, according to the U.S. Census
Bureau. People bike for many reasons —
better health, recreation, transportation,
to save money, to run errands. But the
biggest reason that bicycling is booming in
the United States is the growth in bicycle
infrastructure.
In 1992, there were only 5o federally
funded bicycle infrastructure projects; last
year, there were about 2,50o. The Rails -
to- Trails Conservancy says there now are
more than 1,900 rails -to- trails
projects totaling almost
31,000 miles (5o,000 km)
of safe, off -road bike trails.
Bicycle infrastructure also
includes many additional
miles of grade-separated bike
trails, protected bike lanes,
and a growing system of bike
boulevards (low- traffic streets
optimized for cycling).
Bicycling is part of a larger
shift toward "shared -use
mobility," which emphasizes
the availability of multiple,
shared ways of moving
around a city rather than
vehicle ownership. Ride shar-
ing, car sharing, bike sharing,
Uber, Lyft, and autonomous
vehicles are all part of this
larger evolution. Today, for example, there
are almost 120 urban bike -share systems in
the United States and over 75o worldwide.
Just as investments in roads and
highways led to automobile- oriented
development and public transportation
investments led to transit - oriented devel-
opment, investments in bicycle infra-
structure are now leading to trail - oriented
development. This trend is likely to grow
because bicycle infrastructure is relatively
inexpensive and it provides high levels of
return on investment. For instance, Port-
land, Oregon —the U.S. city with the high-
est percentage of bicycle commuters —has
developed a 300 -mile (483 km) network of
bike trails, lanes, and boulevards for about

RealEstate: TheNextfrontierpresentsten casestudiesofbicycle-
friendlydevelopmentprojects.
220 URBAN LAND MARCH /APRIL 2017
6o million —about the same cost as one
mile (1.6 km) of urban freeway.
San Francisco reports that one mile of
protected bikeway in the heart of the city
cost $445,000. This seems expensive until
one considers that reconstruction of a
one -mile segment of Doyle Drive cost $571
million and a new one -mile refurbishment
of the Bay Bridge cost $2.07 billion. Dare
County, North Carolina, which includes
the Outer Banks, reports that a one -time
expenditure of $6.7 million to build a bike
trait parallel to the beach resulted in a
nine -to -one annual return on investment.
Bicycling is good for health and the envi-
ronment, but it is very good for business,
too. Numerous studies show that bike trails
increase the value of nearby properties. A
study of Indianapolis's Cultural Trail, for
example, found that property values within
one block ofthe trail rose 148 percent
between 2008 and 2014 —far more than in
the city as a whole. Studies of the Minute-
man Bikeway in Massachusetts and the Katy
Trail in Dallas found that homes near the
trails sold faster and for more money than
homes farther away. In 2002, the National
Association of Realtors reported that walking
trails and bike paths were the top neighbor-
hood amenity sought by homebuyers.
Bicycling can also have a positive impact
on retail sales. The New York City Depart-
ment of Transportation, for instance, found
that installing a mile -long protected bike
lane on Ninth Avenue in Manhattan resulted
in an estimated 49 percent increase in retail
sales for merchants along the route.
Another business advantage is that
bicycles take up much less space than
cars. Ten to 12 bicycles can be parked in
the same space as one car. This is sig-
nificant when one considers that surface
parking spaces cost $3,000 to $4,000 per
space; structured parking costs $15,000 to
20,000 per space; and underground park-
ing can cost up to $50,000 per space.
The transportation landscape is chang-
ing. Bicycle infrastructure is catalyzing real
estate investment, and cities that give corn-
muters more transportation options will be
more competitive. What's not to like? U. %\ v

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the annexation of 3109 and 3111 Wolfe Road and 421 and 501 North McMullen
Booth Road, together with certain abutting rights-of-way of Wolfe Road and North McMullen
Booth Road; and pass Ordinance 9005-17 on first reading. (ANX2017-01002)
SUMMARY:
This voluntary annexation petition involves four vacant parcels of land totaling 0.83 acres
located at the southeast corner of Wolfe and North McMullen Booth Roads. The City of
Clearwater owns the property, and is requesting annexation in order to expand park facilities.
The property is contiguous to existing city boundaries along the north, south and east. The
Development Review Committee is proposing that 0.696-acres of abutting Wolfe Road and
North McMullen Booth Road rights-of-way also be annexed.
The City has also submitted applications to change the property’s Future Land Use Map
designation of Residential Urban (RU) to Recreation/Open Space (R/OS) (LUP2017-01001)
and to rezone the property to the Open Space/Recreation (OS/R) District (REZ2017-01001)
upon annexation into the City of Clearwater.
The Planning and Development Department determined that the proposed annexation is
consistent with the provisions of the Clearwater Community Development Code Section
4-604.E. as follows:
·The property currently receives water from the City. Sewer service is not readily
available to the property, but will be made available in the future as part of the Kapok
Terrace Sanitary Sewer System Extension Project. Collection of solid waste will be
provided 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
49 located at 565 Sky Harbor Drive. The City has adequate capacity to serve the
property with 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 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
Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 5/10/2017
File Number: ANX2017-01002
a variety of land uses located within the Clearwater Planning Area.
Policy A.7.2.4 Allow voluntary annexations for noncontiguous properties that are
within an enclave as defined by Section 171.031(13)(a), Florida Statutes (“Type A”
enclaves) and as authorized by the 2014 Interlocal Service Boundary Agreement
(ISBA) between Pinellas County and municipalities, including the City of
Clearwater.
·The parcels proposed for annexation located at 3109 and 3111 Wolfe Road and 421
North McMullen Booth Road are contiguous to existing city boundaries along the south
and east; therefore, the annexations are consistent with Florida Statutes Chapter
171.044. The parcel at 501 North McMullen Booth Road is non-contiguous to city
boundaries but is located in a Type A Enclave; therefore, the annexation is consistent
with the Interlocal Service Boundary Agreement authorized by Section 171.204.

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve a Future Land Use Map Amendment from the Residential Urban (RU) category to the
Recreation/Open Space (R/OS) category for 3109 and 3111 Wolfe Road and 421 and 501
North McMullen Booth Road; and pass Ordinance 9006-17 on first reading. (LUP2017-01001)
SUMMARY:
This Future Land Use Map amendment application involves four parcels totaling 0.83 acres
located directly at the southeast corner of Wolfe Road and North McMullen Booth Road. The
property is owned by the City of Clearwater and is currently vacant. The City is requesting to
amend the property’s Future Land Use Map category of Residential Urban (RU) to the
Recreation/Open Space (R/OS) category, indicating the intention to redevelop the site as a
trail head for the adjacent Ream Wilson Trail; however, no plans have been submitted at this
time. The City has also submitted a petition for annexation for the property (ANX2017-01002)
and a Zoning Atlas Amendment (REZ2017-01001) which are being processed concurrently
with this case.
The proposed Recreation/Open Space (R/OS) category permits nonresidential development
at a FAR of 0.25. The City designates its parkland and parks facilities as Recreation/Open
Space (R/OS) on the Future Land Use Map; therefore, this amendment is required in order to
appropriately designate the property to reflect the City’s intended use upon annexation.
The Planning & Development Department has determined that the proposed Future Land Use
Map amendment is consistent with the Community Development Code as specified below:
·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.
In accordance with the Countywide Plan Rules, this land use plan amendment is subject to the
approval of Forward Pinellas, in its role as the Pinellas Planning Council, and the Board of
County Commissioners acting as the Countywide Planning Authority. 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 April 18, 2017 public
hearing and unanimously recommended approval.

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve a Zoning Atlas Amendment from R-3 District (Pinellas County) to the Open Space/
Recreation (OS/R) District (City) for 3109 and 3111 Wolfe Road and 421 and 501 North
McMullen Booth Road and pass Ordinance 9007-17 on first reading. (REZ2017-01001)
SUMMARY:
This Zoning Atlas amendment involves four parcels totaling 0.83 acres located at the
southeast corner of Wolfe and North McMullen Booth Roads. The property is owned by the
City of Clearwater and is currently vacant. The City is requesting to rezone the property from
the R-3 District (Pinellas County) to the Open Space Recreation (OS/R) District (City)
indicating the intention to redevelop the site as a trail head for the adjacent Ream Wilson Trail;
however, no plans have been submitted at this time. The City has filed a petition for
annexation for the property (ANX2017-01002) and a Future Land Use Map amendment
(LUP2017-01001) which are being processed concurrently with this case.
The proposed Open Space/Recreation (OS/R) District is compatible with the surrounding
single family residential uses, and the property will be integrated into the adjacent park
facilities at Del Oro Park. The City designates its parkland and parks facilities as
Recreation/Open Space (R/OS) on the Future Land Use Map; therefore, this rezoning is
required in order to appropriately designate the property to reflect the City ’s intended use upon
annexation.
The Planning and Development Department determined that the proposed Zoning Atlas
amendment is consistent with the Community Development Code as specified below:
·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 Open Space/Recreation (OS/R) 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.
·The proposed Open Space/Recreation (OS/R) District boundary is appropriately drawn
in regard to location and classification of streets, ownership lines, existing
improvements, and the natural environment.

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the annexation, initial Future Land Use Map designation of Residential Low (RL) and
initial Zoning Atlas designation of Low Medium Density Residential (LMDR) District for 3064
Grand View Avenue and the annexation, initial Future Land Use Map designation of
Residential Urban (RU) and initial Zoning Atlas designation of Low Medium Density
Residential (LMDR) for 3121 Wolfe Road; and pass Ordinances 9019-17, 9020-17 and
9021-17 on first reading. (ANX2017-03004)
SUMMARY:
These voluntary annexation petitions involve 0.423-acres of property consisting of two parcels
of land occupied by two single family homes. The parcels are located generally north of Drew
Street, south of SR 590, and within ¼ mile west or east of McMullen Booth Road. The
applicants are requesting annexation in order to receive solid waste service from the City and
will be connected to the city sanitary sewer as part of the Kapok Terrace Sanitary Sewer
System Extension Project. The properties are contiguous to existing city limits along at least
one property boundary. It is proposed that the property located at 3064 Grand View Avenue
be assigned a Future Land Use Map designation of Residential Low (RL) and a Zoning Atlas
designation of Low Medium Density Residential (LMDR) and that the property located at 3121
Wolfe Road be assigned a Future Land Use Map designation of Residential Urban (RU) and a
Zoning Atlas designation of Low Medium Density Residential (LMDR).
The Planning and Development Department determined that the proposed annexations are
consistent with the provisions of Clearwater Community Development Code Section 4-604.E
as follows:
·The properties currently receive water service from the City. Collection of solid waste
will be provided to the properties by the City. The applicants will connect to the City’s
sanitary sewer service when it is available, and are aware of the fee that must be paid
in order to connect and the financial incentives available. The properties are 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 these properties by Station 49 located at 565 Sky Harbor
Drive. The City has adequate capacity to serve these properties with sanitary sewer,
solid waste, police, fire and EMS service. The proposed annexations will not have an
adverse effect on public facilities and their levels of service; and
·The proposed annexations are consistent with and promote the following objectives
and policy of the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan:
Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 5/10/2017
File Number: ANX2017-03004
Objective A.6.4 Due to the built-out character of the City of Clearwater,
compact urban development within the urban service area shall be promoted
through application of the Clearwater Community Development Code.
Objective A.7.2 Diversify and expand the City’s tax base through the
annexation of a variety of land uses located within the Clearwater Planning
Area.
Policy A.7.2.3 Continue to process voluntary annexations for single-family
residential properties upon request.
·The proposed Residential Low (RL) and Residential Urban (RU) Future Land Use Map
categories are consistent with the current Countywide Plan designation of these
properties. The Residential Low (RL) designation primarily permits residential uses at
a density of 5 units per acre, and the Residential Urban (RU) designation primarily
permits residential uses at a density of 7.5 units per acre. The proposed zoning district
to be assigned to the properties is Low Medium Density Residential (LMDR). The use
of the subject properties is consistent with the uses allowed in the District and the
properties exceed the District’s minimum dimensional requirements. The proposed
annexations are therefore consistent with the Countywide Plan and the City’s
Comprehensive Plan and Community Development Code; and
·The properties proposed for annexation are contiguous to existing city limits along at
least one property boundary; therefore, the annexations are consistent with Florida
Statutes Chapter 171.044.

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the annexation, initial Future Land Use Map designations of Residential Low (RL),
Preservation (P) and Water/Drainage Feature Overlay and initial Zoning Atlas designations of
Low Medium Density Residential (LMDR) and Preservation (P) Districts for 1516 Stevenson’s
Drive; and pass Ordinances 9022-17, 9023-17, and 9024-17 on first reading.
(ANX2017-03006)
SUMMARY:
This voluntary annexation petition involves a 0.26-acre property consisting of one parcel of
land occupied by a single-family dwelling. The property is located on the west side of
Stevenson's Drive, approximately 80 feet south of Carol Drive. The applicant is requesting
annexation in order to receive solid waste service from the City. The property is contiguous to
existing city boundaries to the north, east and west. It is proposed that the property be
assigned the Future Land Use Map designations of Residential Low (RL), Preservation (P)
and Water/Drainage Feature Overlay and Zoning Atlas designations of Low Medium Density
Residential (LMDR) and Preservation (P).
The Planning and Development Department determined that the proposed annexation is
consistent with the provisions of Community Development Code Section 4-604.E as follows:
·The property currently receives water and sanitary sewer service from the City of
Clearwater. Collection of solid waste for the property will be provided by the City of
Clearwater. The property is located within Police District II and service will be
administered through the district headquarters located at 645 Pierce Street. Fire and
emergency medical services will be provided to this property by Station 51 located at
1720 Overbrook Avenue. The City has adequate capacity to serve this property with
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 proposed Residential Low (RL), Preservation (P) and Water/Drainage Feature
Overlay Future Land Use Map categories are consistent with the current Countywide
Plan designation of this property. The Residential Low (RL) designation primarily
permits residential uses at a density of 5 units per acre. The Preservation (P) and
Water/Drainage Feature Overlay categories proposed to be applied to the property
recognize the watershed and drainage features on the properties. The proposed
zoning districts to be assigned to this property are the Low Medium Density Residential
(LMDR) and Preservation (P) Districts. The use of the subject property is consistent
with the uses allowed in the District and the property exceeds the District’s minimum
dimensional requirements. The proposed annexation is therefore consistent with the
Countywide Plan and the City’s Comprehensive Plan and Community Development
Code; and
·The property proposed for annexation is contiguous to existing city boundaries along
the north, east, and west; therefore the annexation is consistent with Florida Statutes
Chapter 171.044.

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the annexation, initial Future Land Use Map designation of Residential Low (RL) and
initial Zoning Atlas designation of Low Medium Density Residential (LMDR) District for 2134
Burnice Drive; and pass Ordinances 9025-17, 9026-17, and 9027-17 on first reading.
(ANX2017-03005)
SUMMARY:
This voluntary annexation petition involves a 0.24-acre property consisting of one parcel of
land occupied by a single-family dwelling. The property is located on the north side of Burnice
Drive, approximately 830 feet west of Belcher Road. The applicant is requesting annexation in
order to receive sanitary sewer and solid waste service from the City. The property is located
within an enclave and is contiguous to existing city boundaries on all sides. It is proposed that
the property be assigned a Future Land Use Map designation of Residential Low (RL) and a
Zoning Atlas designation of Low Medium Density Residential (LMDR).
The Planning and Development Department determined that the proposed annexation is
consistent with the provisions of Community Development Code Section 4-604.E as follows:
·The property currently receives water service from the City of Clearwater. The closest
sanitary sewer line is located in the adjacent Burnice Drive right-of-way. The applicant
has paid the City's sewer impact and assessment fees and is aware of the additional
costs to extend city sewer service to this property. Collection of solid waste will be
provided by the City of Clearwater. The property is located within Police District III and
service will be administered through the district headquarters located at 2851
McMullen Booth Road. Fire and emergency medical services will be provided to this
property by Station 48 located at 1700 North Belcher Road. The City has adequate
capacity to serve this property with 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 proposed Residential Low (RL) Future Land Use Map category is consistent with
the current Countywide Plan designation of this property. This designation primarily
permits residential uses at a density of 5 units per acre. The proposed zoning district to
be assigned to the property is the Low Medium Density Residential (LMDR) District.
The use of the subject property is consistent with the uses allowed in the District and
the property exceeds the District’s minimum dimensional requirements. The proposed
annexation is therefore consistent with the Countywide Plan and the City’s
Comprehensive Plan and Community Development Code; and
·The property proposed for annexation is contiguous to existing city boundaries on all
sides; therefore the annexation is consistent with Florida Statutes Chapter 171.044.

SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Approve an amendment to the Clearwater Community Development Code to modify
freestanding signage provisions to incorporate the US 19 zoning district and pass Ordinance
9030-17 on first reading. (TA2017-03004)
SUMMARY:
Proposed Ordinance 9030-17 amends only Section 3-1807 of the Community Development
Code (CDC), and only adds language that would enable those properties now within the new
US 19 zoning district to have freestanding signage because, in its present form, the CDC
would not permit for any such signage. There are no changes proposed to those regulations
on height, area, number and location of signs.
The Planning and Development Department has determined that the proposed text
amendment to the Community Development Code is consistent with and furthers the goals,
objectives and policies of the Comprehensive Plan and the Community Development Code as
outlined in the staff report. The CDB reviewed the proposed text amendment at its meeting of
April 18, 2017 and unanimously recommended approval of the amendment.

COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BOARD STAFF REPORT
MEETING DATE: April 18, 2017
AGENDA ITEM: F. 1.
CASE: TA2017-03004
ORDINANCE NO.: 9030-17
REQUEST: Review and recommendation to the City Council, of an
amendment to the Community Development Code.
INITIATED BY: City of Clearwater, Planning and Development Department
BACKGROUND:
At its meeting of February 2, 2017, the City Council adopted the US 19 Zoning District and
Development Standards as part of Ordinance 8988-17. The ordinance, however, did not include
any changes to the Community Development Code (CDC) with regard to signage. As a result,
the CDC is now inequitable with regard to how freestanding signs would be permitted in the
City.
ANALYSIS:
Proposed Ordinance No. 9030-17 amends only Section 3-1807 of the CDC, and only adds
language that would enable those properties now within the new US 19 zoning district to have
freestanding signage because, in its present form, the CDC would not permit for any such
signage. There are no changes proposed to those regulations on height, area, number and
location of signs.
CRITERIA FOR TEXT AMENDMENTS:
CDC Section 4-601 sets forth the procedures and criteria for reviewing text amendments. All
text amendments must comply with the following:
1. The proposed amendment is consistent with and furthers the goals, policies and
objectives of the Comprehensive Plan.
A review of the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan identified the following Goals, Objectives
and Policies which will be furthered by the proposed Code amendments:
Objective A.3.1 All signage within the City of Clearwater shall be consistent with the
Clearwater sign code, as found within the Community Development Code,
Planning & Development Department Community Development Code Text Amendment Development Review Division
Community Development Board – April 18, 2017
TA2017-03004 – Page 2
and all proposed signs shall be evaluated to determine their effectiveness
in reducing visual clutter and in enhancing the safety and attractiveness of
the streetscape.
As noted previously, in its present form the CDC would not permit for freestanding signage
within the US 19 zoning district. This amendment corrects this oversight.
2. The proposed amendment furthers the purposes of the Community Development Code
and other City ordinances and actions designed to implement the Plan.
The proposed text amendment will further the purpose of the CDC in that it will be consistent
with the following purpose set forth in CDC Section 1-103:
Sec. 1-103.A. It is the purpose of this Development Code to implement the
Comprehensive Plan of the city; to promote the health, safety, general
welfare and quality of life in the city; to guide the orderly growth and
development of the city; to establish rules of procedure for land
development approvals; to enhance the character of the city and the
preservation of neighborhoods; and to enhance the quality of life of all
residents and property owners of the city.
This amendment only corrects an oversight in the CDC with regard to the new US 19 zoning
district that does not allow for freestanding signs in said district. With regard to the above
referenced section of the CDC, this amendment will essentially establish a rule of procedure
allowing for freestanding signs in the US 19 zoning district.
SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION:
The proposed amendment to the Community Development Code is consistent with and will
further the goals of the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan and the purpose of the Community
Development Code. Based upon the above, the Planning and Development Department
recommends APPROVAL of Ordinance No. 9030-17 that amends the Community Development
Code.

been in practice since 1995 but never memorialized into the City Council Policies. Staff
is recommending adding the following policy statement:
Proposed language:
In order for new sidewalks to be installed in an existing neighborhood, a petition is
required indicating that greater than 50% of the property owners impacted are in favor.
Exceptions include when the City determines that a sidewalk is necessary as part of a
heavily used school route, or for sidewalks filling a gap between existing sidewalks
involving two or less residences.
Page 3 City of Clearwater Printed on 5/10/2017
File Number: ID#17-3485
4)Enterprise Fund Transfer Payment (3I) - Sat the April 17 work session, staff was
directed to clarify the policy statement. Staff is recommending the following statement:
April 1989 policy adopted by councilmembers established this rate at 4.5% of
prior-year gross revenues. This proportionate rate was adopted to
accommodate growth, and replaced prior years' policy of a prescribed dollar
contribution. Other than the exceptions noted below, the rate of 4.5% remained
in effect until the City Council adopted the amended rate of 5.5% in September
2005.
Upon adoption of the Gas Strategic Plan in fiscal year 1995/96, the Council
agreed to replace the Gas Support contribution with a franchise fee from
natural gas customer accounts payable to the General Fund. This, in
combination with the Gas dividend, offered the General Fund the same level of
support as fiscal year 1995/96. The Gas System Dividend will be 50% of the
Gas System Net Income less Bond Interest Earnings, but no less than a
minimum of $1,700,000, plus a PILOT (Payment in Lieu of Taxes) fee of at
least $508,720. Such PILOT fee will be paid by the Gas Franchise Fees to
offset such PILOT payment. When the Gas System Net Income less Bond
Interest Earnings exceeds $3.4 million for any fiscal year, the Gas Dividend
payment for the next fiscal year will be one half of that amount.
In September 2000, with the adoption of the 2001/02 Annual Operating Budget,
the City Council expanded this policy, which had previously been imposed only
on the utility enterprises, to include an annual payment in lieu of taxes from the
Marine and Airpark Fund. In FY 2009 the Parking Fund began paying the
PILOT.
5)Review of Rate Schedule (5O) - At the April 25 special council meeting, staff was
directed to amend the unrestricted reserve balance for utility funds to six months. Staff
is recommending the following amendment:
It is a policy of the City Council to review rate schedules of the City of
Clearwater enterprise funds at a minimum of every 5 years. The purpose of the
review will be to assure rates are set in a manner to be fair and equitable while
covering the City’s cost to provide the service.
Unrestricted utility fund balances (working capital reserves) should be
maintained pursuant to the most recent rate review or at a level equivalent to at
least three six months’ operation and maintenance expense, whichever is
greater, and enterprise and internal service funds three months for all other
enterprise and internal funds.

CITY COUNCIL POLICY
BUDGET and FINANCE
A.Balanced Budget. It is a policy of the City Council to adopt a balanced
budget for all funds. The City will avoid budget and accounting practices
that balance the budget at the expense of future budgets. The City will
also avoid budgeting any unrealized investment gains due to the City’s
practice of holding investments until maturity.
B.Maintenance of Capital Plant and Equipment. It is a policy of the City
Council that the City’s budget will provide adequate funding for
maintenance of capital plant and equipment and the funding for their
orderly replacement.
C.Budget Review Process. It is a policy of the City Council to be provided
with a quarterly budget report and an annual operating budget comparing
actual versus budgeted revenue and expense activity.
D.Budgetary Position Control. It is a policy of the City Council that the
total number of permanent full-time and part-time positions (full-time
equivalents) approved in the annual operating budget may not be
exceeded without prior approval of the City Council.
E.General Fund Unappropriated Retained Earnings. It is a policy of the
City Council to maintain a General Fund reserve equal to 8% of the
subsequent year's budgeted expenditures as a contingency fund to meet
unanticipated financial needs. Should funds in excess of 8% be available
in any fiscal year, these funds shall be identified as available, and may be
appropriated by the Council for specific Capital Improvement Projects or
other one-time needs.
In addition, the City Council will maintain an additional General Fund
reserve equal to ½% of the subsequent year’s budgeted expenditures to
fund unanticipated retirements of General Fund long-term employees
during the given fiscal year. Any appropriations approved by the City
Manager during the year, for this purpose, will be noted in the City
Manager’s quarterly budget report.
F.Capital Improvement Budget and Capital Improvement Plan. It is a
policy of the City Council to adopt a six-year Capital Improvement Plan
and Budget which summarizes the project scope, estimated cost
estimates by project, method of financing, and anticipated operating costs
of each project.
3 As presented at 4/17/2017 work session
Budget and Finance (contd.)
G.Road Millage. In order to maintain the City’s sidewalks and streets
(including curbs and bridges), a road millage will be designated as a part
of the annual budget process. Priorities will be determined first on
functional and safety considerations. Road Millage may be used for
aesthetic repairs.
H.Enterprise Funds. It is a policy of the City Council that all Enterprise
Fund operations shall be self-supporting, and shall pay administrative and
other appropriate service charges to General Fund Operations for support
at a level determined by the City Council.
I.Enterprise Fund Transfer Payment. It is a policy of the City Council that
the specific enterprise operations designated by the City Council shall
annually transfer to the General Fund an amount determined appropriate
to be considered reimbursement in lieu of taxes. The current rate is 5.5%
of prior year gross revenues.
April 1989 policy adopted by councilmembers established this rate
at 4.5% of prior-year gross revenues. This proportionate rate was
adopted to accommodate growth, and replaced prior years' policy
of a prescribed dollar contribution.Other than the exceptions noted
below, the rate of 4.5% remained in effect until the City Council
adopted the amended rate of 5.5% in September 2005.
Upon adoption of the Gas Strategic Plan in fiscal year 1995/96, the
Council agreed to replace the Gas Support contribution with a
franchise fee from natural gas customer accounts payable to the
General Fund. This, in combination with the Gas dividend, offered
the General Fund the same level of support as fiscal year 1995/96.
The Gas System Dividend will be 50% of the Gas System Net
Income less Bond Interest Earnings, but no less than a minimum of
$1,700,000, plus a PILOT (Payment in Lieu of Taxes) fee of at least
$508,720. Such PILOT fee will be paid by the Gas Franchise Fees
to offset such PILOT payment. When the Gas System Net Income
less Bond Interest Earnings exceeds $3.4 million for any fiscal year,
the Gas Dividend payment for the next fiscal year will be one half of
that amount.
In September 2000, with the adoption of the 2001/02 Annual
Operating Budget, the City Council expanded this policy, which had
previously been imposed only on the utility enterprises, to include
an annual payment in lieu of taxes from the Marine and Airpark
Fund. In FY 2009 the Parking Fund began paying the PILOT.
J.Interfund Administrative Charge. It is a policy of the City Council that
an allocation shall be made annually distributing the costs for
administrative support departments among all operating departments.
This distribution shall be proportionately based on the operating
4 As presented at 4/17/2017 work session
Budget and Finance (contd.)
department's annual budget, and shall not be charged to General Fund
departments.
Upon adoption of the Gas Strategic Plan in fiscal year 1995/96, the
Council agreed to maintain the same charge for administrative
support from the Gas Fund for fiscal year 1995/96 which will be
increased annually by estimated the cost of salary increase index
(fiscal year 2001/02 - 5%).
Beginning in fiscal year 2001, the City Council approved an
adjustment to the Gas Fund charge increasing the charge by
$325,000 over the computed amount to bring the Gas Fund more in
line with the proportionate amount calculated in the same manner
as the Other Enterprise Funds.
K.Interfund Other Service Charges. It is a policy of the City Council that
the cost of services provided to Enterprise Fund Departments by General
Fund Departments shall be charged to, and paid by the Enterprise Fund.
L.CRA Contribution to General Fund. It is the City's policy that services
provided for administrative support to the Community Redevelopment
Agency (CRA) by City employees shall be reimbursed to the General
Fund. Such reimbursement shall be approximate actual costs incurred by
the department, together with any associated costs.
M.Special Event Fees. The Special Events Committee will review
applications for use of City beaches, sidewalks, outdoor recreation open
space and rights-of-way. Sponsoring organizations will be responsible for
the costs of all City services needed in conjunction with the events unless
they are City sponsored or co-sponsored events.
The City Council may waive all or a portion of fees and related charges for
City sponsored or co-sponsored events, including, but not limited to Fun 'N
Sun, Jazz Holiday, July 4th, Turkey Trot, and Martin Luther King Parade.
There shall be an annual review of City sponsored/co-sponsored events
during the budget process. An agenda item confirming co-sponsorship
and waiver of fees for those to be submitted in the budget will be brought
for City Council acceptance in March of each calendar year. All items
accepted by the Council are then to be included in the appropriate
department’s budget. Only after the item is passed as part of the
approved budget is the item considered to be funded.
In the event additional monies are requested beyond what is included in
the approved budget, City Council approval will be needed before said
additional funds are appropriated.
5 As presented at 4/17/2017 work session
Budget and Finance (contd.)
N.Accounting Procedures. It is a policy of the City Council to establish
and maintain a standard of accounting practices on a basis consistent with
Generally Accepted Accounting Procedures (GAAP), and the
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), and the standard
practices of the Government Finance Officers Association of the United
States and Canada (GFOA).
The City will also comply with the rules of the Auditor General and the
Uniform Accounting System as required by the State of Florida.
O.Review of Rate Schedules. It is a policy of the City Council to review
rate schedules of the City of Clearwater enterprise funds at a minimum of
every 5 years. The purpose of the review will be to assure rates are set in
a manner to be fair and equitable while covering the City’s cost to provide
the service.
Unrestricted utility fund balances (working capital reserves) should be
maintained pursuant to the most recent rate review or at a level equivalent
to at least three six months’ operation and maintenance expense,
whichever is greater, and enterprise and internal service funds three
months for all other enterprise and internal funds.
P.Review of Annual Audit. It is a policy of the City Council to have a
Certified Public Accounting firm perform an annual audit on all of the City’s
funds. A work session will be held each year within 60 days of the release
of the annual financial audit of the City. At that time, the overall financial
condition of the City and its enterprise funds will be reviewed.

investments of the City's pooled cash, which includes cash and
investment balances of the following funds:
•General
•Special Revenue
•Debt Service
•Capital Projects
•Enterprise
•Internal Service Funds
•Fiduciary Funds

Budget and Finance (contd.)
to the safety of capital. Each investment transaction shall seek to first
ensure that capital losses are avoided.
B. The City's investment strategy will provide sufficient liquidity to meet
the City's operating, payroll and capital requirements. To accomplish this
the portfolio will be "laddered" with monthly maturities except for those
months in which significant Ad Valorem taxes are received. To the extent
possible, the City will match its investments with anticipated cash flow
requirements. Unless matched to a specific cash flow requirement, the
City will not directly invest in securities maturing more than 15 years from
the date of purchase. Also, unless specifically matched against a debt or
obligation not more than 15% of the portfolio will have a maturity greater
than 10 years.
C. The City's investment portfolio shall be designed with the objective of
attaining a market rate of return throughout budgetary and economic
cycles, taking into account the City's investment risk constraints and the
cash flow characteristics of the portfolio.
(3) Performance Measurement
The benchmark yield for the operating portfolio will be the weighted
average yield determined by using the following maturity distribution and
the related U.S. Treasury yields. Treasury yields are considered the
benchmark for riskless investment transactions and, therefore comprise
a minimum standard for the operating portfolio's rate of return. The
investment program shall seek to augment returns above this threshold,
consistent with risk limitations identified herein.
Average Treasury Rates Percentage Distribution
Overnight rate 15%
3 month Treasury Bill rate 15%
6 month Treasury Bill rate 15%
1 year Treasury Bill rate 15%
3 year Treasury Note rate 15%
5 year Treasury Note rate 15%

the auction’.
B. The security has a fixed "postal-scale" rate.

corresponding institution.
(12) Internal Controls

controls designed to protect the City's assets and ensure proper
accounting and reporting of the transactions related thereto. The internal
controls will be designed to prevent losses of funds which might arise
from fraud, employee error, misrepresentations by third parties, or
imprudent actions by employees of the City. All buy and sell
communications with the third party safekeeping company will be signed
by two individuals authorized to make investment decisions. The
internal controls developed under this policy shall be reviewed by the
independent auditors as a regular part of their audit of the City.
The Finance Director shall establish an Investment Committee that
meets on a regular basis for the purpose of reviewing investment
transactions, approving brokers/dealer changes and other investment

R.Debt Management Policy. This policy is to establish criterion and
procedures for the issuance of debt financing by the City. This Debt Policy
confirms the commitment of the City Council, management, staff, advisors
and other decision makers to adhere to sound financial management
practices, including full and timely repayment of all borrowings, and
achieving the lowest possible cost of capital within prudent risk
parameters.
The City shall employ the use of debt to compliment the significant
recurring commitments of annual appropriations for capital purposes in a
way that is fair, reasonable, and equitable to each generation of
taxpayers, ratepayers, users and other beneficiaries.
1.General:
A. The City shall seek to maintain their high bond ratings so borrowing
costs are minimized and access to credit is preserved.
B. The City may utilize debt obligations to refinance current debt or for
acquisition, construction or remodeling of capital Improvement projects
that cannot be funded from current revenue sources or in such cases
wherein it is more equitable to the users of the project to finance the
project over its useful life.
C. The useful life of the asset or project generally must exceed the
payout schedule of any debt the City assumes.
D. The City will analyze funding alternatives to minimize the cost impact
of debt structures on the taxpayers or ratepayers.
E. The outstanding debt will be reexamined periodically to determine
whether an economical advantage exits for refinancing the outstanding
debt given changes in the interest rate and bond market. As a
general rule, the present value savings of a particular refunding should
exceed 5% while maintaining a similar maturity schedule to the original
debt.
2.Type and Structure of Debt:
A. Any legally allowable debt may be used for financing capital
improvements; this includes, but is not limited to, short-term and long-

the lease purchase items shall be paid by the user department.
3. Issuance of Obligations

disclosure counsel for legal and procedural advice on all debt

bond obligations in a competitive sale. Other methods may be
used if it is determined that such a sale method will not
produce the best results for the City.
2) Negotiated Sale. The City may elect to sell its bond
obligations through a negotiated sale. This method will usually
be considered when the bond issue is refunding a prior issue
or there is a unique or unusual component to the bond issue.
3) Private Placement. When determined appropriate, the City
may elect to sell its debt obligations through a private
placement or limited public offering.
