3.1 Approve participation and subscription in the ISO ClaimSearch for Non-Insurers
Database effective January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2018, pursuant to City Code
Section 2.564 (1) (i), services associated with Risk Management Casualty and Liability
claims services; approve a not-to-exceed total of$10,000 for the annual membership fee
and as-needed claim search fees; and authorize the appropriate officials to execute
same. (consent)
The Risk Management Division of the Finance Department would like to
participate and be a member of the ISO ClaimSearch database for Casualty
and Claims Inquiry, which would allow Risk Management Specialists to
determine if claimants who have filed claims against the City of Clearwater for
bodily injury or workers compensation claims have had previous and/or current
accidents nationwide.
This database is shared by most insurance companies, third party
administrators and municipalities in the industry who administer claims and is
considered part of best practices in claims management and severity control.
ISO is a single source provider of this service and its reputation and quality of
product is well known in the industry. This web based search and report tool is
particularly effective in identifying professional claimants.
There is a $7.65 per claim fee for claims submitted to the database for
research, along with an annual membership fee of$1,100. Claims reports
received will be accessed through a web portal.
Staff is requesting approval of a not-to-exceed amount of$10,000 to cover
expected searches for calendar year 2018, based on our fiscal year 2017
claims experience. This not-to-exceed amount also includes the annual
membership fee of$1,100.
The agreement does include an auto-renewal provision with a 90-day
cancellation clause.
APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT:
Funding is available in the Central Insurance Fund budget for the not-to-exceed
balance.
Account# 590-09830-557100-519-000-0000 $1,100
Account# 590-09830-530300-519-000-0000 $8,900
In response to questions, Risk Manager Rick Osorio said 700 casualty
claims were made during the 2016 fiscal year. The ISO ClaimSearch is
helpful in identifying previous claims and injuries, as well as professional
claimants, who make a living staging claims. Staff has not seen a trend of
Page 3
City of Clearwater
Council Work Session Meeting Minutes December 4, 2017
professional claimants who have filed claim against the City. This will be the
first time Clearwater uses ISO ClaimSearch.
4. Parks and Recreation
4.1 Approve Mutual License and Use Agreement between the City of Clearwater (City) and
BW CW Hospitality LLC (BWCW) of Houston Texas to allow for the construction of a
pedestrian overpass by BWCW from the BWCW property over City Right-of-Way to City
property known as Beach Walk and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same.
(consent)
BWCW desires to install a pedestrian overpass from their multistory hotel
development currently known as the Hyatt on Clearwater Beach over S. Gulfview
Blvd. ROW to Beach Walk. This overpass will allow pedestrians to access
Clearwater Beach directly from the parking garage and BWCW property without
having to cross S. Gulfview Blvd.
As part of the Development Agreement between the City and BWCW, they
were responsible to provide a minimum of 400 publicly accessible parking
spaces. Persons parking in these spaces must cross S. Gulfview Blvd. to
access Beach Walk and Clearwater Beach.
BWCW will be responsible for all costs of and construction of the new overpass
structure and amenities; as well as all future maintenance and upkeep of the
structure. Construction of the overpass must begin within two years and
completed within eight months of the commencement date of the construction.
BWCW agrees to maintain 400 public parking spaces, to not exclude the public
from the access and use of the overpass and public parking spaces and to
continue to maintain the overpass according to Overpass Standards, set forth
in the agreement.
The City may terminate the agreement for a greater public purpose or in the
event BWCW does not comply with the conditions set forth in the agreement.
In response to questions, Parks and Recreation Director Kevin Dunbar said
BC C W Hospitality (Hyatt) will assume all liability on the pedestrian bridge.
The City Attorney said they are also required to maintain the 400 public
parking spaces for the life of the pedestrian bridge. Mr. Dunbar said there
have been no changes to the drawings provided to Council previously. The
City Attorney said the pedestrian bridge was part of the original development
agreement and removed in 2006 at Hyatt's request. Mr. Dunbar said the City
is giving up a portion of Sundial Plaza to accommodate for the bridge's
landing. The City Attorney said the City will maintain ownership of the
Page 4
City of Clearwater
Council Work Session Meeting Minutes December 4, 2017
pedestrian walkover and land, Hyatt will have all liability and responsibility for
maintenance and construction. Mr. Dunbar said Hyatt will also maintain the
use of the gazebo on Beach Walk.
Staff was directed to take the item of the Consent Agenda.
4.2 Authorize a Purchase Order to WescoTurf, Inc., of Sarasota, Florida, in the amount of
$14,560 for mower equipment purchase less trade-in of mower ($30,460 less trade in
value of$15,900), in accordance with City Code of Ordinances 2.624(6) Exceptions to
Sale of Surplus Property and 2.564(1)(d) Other Government Entities Bids, and authorize
the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent)
Capital Asset number G4439, a Toro Greensmaster mower, was purchased in
2016 to mow Bermuda turf grass at Pier 60 Park and other beach properties.
The presence of beach shell in the turf causes damage to the mower every
time it is used, creating excessive maintenance costs. The Parks and
Recreation Department has tried to re-purpose this mower in the ball fields and
the golf courses, however it does not economically work in these applications.
Toro has offered a trade-in option for the Greensmaster mower ($15,900) with
the purchase of a Groundsmaster 3500-D mower ($30,460) which is designed
to handle the conditions on the beach. Pursuant to City Code of Ordinances
2.624(6) Exceptions to Sale of Surplus Property, City Council authorization is
required for trade-in of City personal property when the trade-in value exceeds
$5,000. Authorization is also requested for the piggyback of Florida State
Contract -Agriculture and Lawn Equipment#21100000-15-1, effective until June
30, 2020, pursuant to City Code of Ordinances 2.564(1)(d) Other Government
Entities Bids
APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT:
This is an unbudgeted expenditure in Fiscal Year 2018. A First Quarter
Amendment will transfer the funds from cost code 010-01860-541500 (Garage
Variable) to 010-01862-591000 (Contribution to Garage) to fund this purchase.

Council Work Session Meeting Minutes December 4, 2017
Druid Trail Phase IV consists of construction of a pedestrian and bicycle trail to
connect The Duke Energy Trail with existing Druid Trail which now terminates
at Glen Oaks Park. Phase IV provides trail connection with the Pinellas County
trail network. Additionally, this project will provide intersection improvements
along Druid Road.
Construction services will be provided by Keystone Excavators, of Oldsmar,
Florida. Of the seven bids, Keystone Excavators was the lowest responsible
bidder in accordance with plans and specifications.
Work will commence upon award and execution of the contract and will be
completed within 274 calendar days from Notice to Proceed.
Druid Trail Phase IV will be maintained by Parks & Recreation Department as
part of the Clearwater Trail System.
January 19, 2017, City Council approved a Local Agency Program (LAP)
agreement between the City of Clearwater and Florida Department of
Transportation (FDOT) for Druid Trail Phase IV from South Evergreen Avenue
to Duke Energy Trail in the amount of$2,223,803.
May 4, 2017, City Council approved amendment 1 to increase FDOT funding to
$2,291,784 and extend the LAP agreement through October 31, 2018.
APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT:
0315-92146-563800-541-000-0000 $3,126,188.51
A first quarter budget amendment will transfer$50,000 from Capital

Funds are available in capital improvement project 315-92146, Druid Rd
Improvements, in the amount of$3,076,188.51 to fund the project.
In response to questions, Engineering Specialist Daniel Simpson said the
project will receive $2.291 million from Florida Highway Administration's
Local Area Planning (LAP) grant program, which is distributed through the
Florida Department of Transportation. Staff anticipates the pre-construction
meeting will occur in January, with construction beginning in February. The
delayed project commencement is due to the Florida Department of
Transportation's review process. Mr. Simpson said staff will bring forward
the construction engineering inspection contract, which will include LAP
administration consultant services, at a future council meeting.
5.2 Declare surplus for the purpose of sale, through Invitation to Bid 05-18, real property
formerly used as city right-of-way located in Section 17, Township 29 South, Range 16
East whereby the successful bidder will assemble the property with meaningful
development with an express prohibition against the parcel becoming an uneconomic
Page 6

Council Work Session Meeting Minutes December 4, 2017
remainder.
November 12, 1968, the City of Clearwater acquired this strip of land, which
runs along the east side of Thornton Road, to use for Right-of-Way purposes.
The adjacent property owner expressed interest in acquiring this piece of land to
support the parking lot on their site.
This strip of land runs along the east side of Thornton Road and is
approximately 10 ft. by 900 ft. Its size and shape impose limitations on potential
land uses. Any meaningful development of the property will require the use of
adjacent lands.
An independent appraisal was performed on the property on April 20, 2017 by
Jim Millspaugh and Associates. This appraisal report determined that the fair
market value is $230,000. Per City Charter 2.01, real property declared surplus
shall be sold to the party submitting the highest competitive bid above the
appraised value whose bid meets the terms set by City Council and whose
proposed use of the property is in accordance with the Council's stated purpose
for declaring the property surplus.
5.3 Ratify and confirm an Interlocal Agreement between Pinellas County and its NPDES
Co-Permittees for the Implementation and Operation of a Surface Water Quality and
Biological Monitoring Program; approve the First Amendment to the Interlocal Agreement
between Pinellas County and NPDES MS4 Co-Permittees for Water Quality and
Biological Monitoring and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same.
This interlocal agreement covers the surface water quality monitoring and
biological monitoring program administered by Pinellas County. This agreement
was originally signed by the City Engineer in 2013, but similar agreements for
monitoring have been in place since 2002. The monitoring program is a
requirement of the stormwater permit issued by the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection.
The City is responsible for 12.05% of the total costs, which is based on
acreage.
The amendment to the agreement is a time extension only and is in effect until
2020.
Housing Manager Joe Riddle provided a PowerPoint presentation.
6. Economic Development and Housing
6.1 Approve the First Amendment to the 2016 Affordable Housing Inventory List pursuant to
requirements of Chapter 166.0451, Florida Statutes, adopt Resolution 17-38 and
Page 7
City of Clearwater
Council Work Session Meeting Minutes December 4, 2017
authorize the appropriate officials to execute same.
The 2006 Legislature amended Chapter 166, Florida Statutes, adding Section
166.0451 entitled "Disposition of municipal property for affordable housing." The
state statute includes that the governing body of each municipality must review
the proposed affordable housing inventory list at a public hearing, and may
revise the list at the conclusion of the hearing. Following the public hearing, the
local governing body must adopt a resolution that includes an inventory list of
such property deemed appropriate for affordable housing development.
On June 16, 2016, the City Council adopted Resolution 16-14, the 2016
Affordable Housing Inventory to identify seven City-owned parcels of land
appropriate for use as affordable housing. The City has identified two additional
parcels of land making it a total of nine parcels to which it has title as
appropriate for use as affordable housing.
The two additional properties are located at 1415 Taft Avenue, acquired by the
City in 2001 and 404 Blanche B. Littlejohn Trail acquired in 2015. Both
properties were acquired at no cost to the City.
Staff was directed to report why the city-owned property on 1164 LaSalle St.
was not included on the list.
6.2 Approve the City of Clearwater's Fiscal Year 2016-2017 Consolidated Annual
Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER).
The Consolidated Annual Performance and Evaluation Report (CAPER) is the
principal administrative report documenting the City's expenditures for
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment
Partnership (HOME) programs to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD). For Fiscal Year (FY) 2016-2017, the City's entitlement
allocation was $667,634 in CDBG and $285,238 in HOME Program funds,
$954,041 of Prior Year funds and $1,147,951 of Program Income for a total
budget of$3,054,864 from federal funds.
The report provides HUD with necessary information for the Department to
meet its requirement to assess each grantee's ability to carry out relevant
Community Planning and Development programs in compliance with all
applicable rules and regulations. It also provides information necessary for
HUD's Annual Report to Congress and it provides grantees an opportunity to
describe to citizens their successes in revitalizing deteriorated neighborhoods
and in meeting objectives stipulated in their Consolidated Planning document.
In addition to reporting activities carried out with federal money, a summary of
activities conducted with the Florida State Housing Initiatives Partnership (SHIP)
Program and Pinellas County Housing Trust Fund Program is also included in
Page 8
City of Clearwater
Council Work Session Meeting Minutes December 4, 2017
the narrative section; however, these numbers are not included in the totals
below.
Through the CDBG and HOME program activities, total expenditures were
$1,629,332 in FY 2016-2017, which included program income and funding from
the prior year reprogrammed funds. Those funds not expended from this year's
budget will be programmed in future years.
The City of Clearwater's FY 2016-2017 CAPER contains information on the
City's assessment of the following activities:
- Assessment of Four Year Goals and Outcomes
- Resources and Investments
- Affordable Housing
- Homeless and Other Special Needs
- Public Housing
- Other Actions to Address Barriers to Affordable Housing
- Monitoring
- CDBG
- HOME
Over 2,200 persons were assisted through Community Development and
Public Services, Homelessness, Housing, Non-Homeless Special Needs, and
Economic Development activities during FY16-17.
A brief summary of FY 2016-2017 accomplishments are:
- Provided thirteen down payment and closing cost assistance loans
totaling $137,959.
- Provided the Arc of Tampa Bay $99,500 for the rehabilitation and upgrading
of their rehabilitation room and upgrading of doors at the Long Center.
- Provided $29,950 for the rehabilitation of two owner occupied homes.
- Provided $265,875 of funding toward the construction of Garden Trail
Apartments.
- Provided Community Services Foundation $105,721 for the rehabilitation of
Fulton Avenue Apartments.
- Provided $296,568 to Habitat for Humanity of Pinellas County for the
construction of six single-family homes.
- Provided $268,587 for the acquisition and rehabilitation of two single family
homes.
The City's Neighborhood and Affordable Housing Advisory Board recommended
City Council approval of the FY 2016-2017 CAPER at their meeting on
November 28, 2017. The CAPER is due to HUD no later than December 30,
2017.
In response to questions, Housing Manager Joe Riddle said the elimination
Page 9
City of Clearwater
Council Work Session Meeting Minutes December 4, 2017
of blight is addressed through the Department's owner-occupied rehab
program, bringing home ownership back to those
neighborhoods. Information regarding the Department's grants program is
available online. He said at the beginning of the new year staff will present
program information to city departments to increase awareness of the
programs and services offered by Housing. Economic Development and
Housing Director Denise Sanderson said the City is obligated to meet HUD's
timeliness goals every year and are allowed to carry over only so much of
the allocated funds, in some instances, the City had to amend the public
facilities agreements because applicants are unable to meet the construction
requirements and reallocate funds to other projects. The City has met all
timeliness goals. She said one of the reasons why the Department carries a
high balance is due to its successful loan repayment structure.
6.3 Accept the 2017 Local Housing Incentive Strategy (LHIS) Report developed by the
Affordable Housing Advisory Committee (AHAC).
Florida Statute Section 420.9076 states that counties and cities receiving State
Housing Initiatives Partnership (SHIP) program funds are required to appoint an
eleven member Affordable Housing Advisory Committee (AHAC). The statute
further provides that the committee be made up of members from a specific
industry or a specific group as identified in the statute. The requirement was
largely met through the use of the City's existing Neighborhood and Affordable
Housing Advisory Board (NAHAB). The City Council adopted Resolution 17-34
that created and appointed the AHAC.
The duties of the AHAC included reviewing policies and procedures,
ordinances, land development regulations and the City's adopted
comprehensive plan and recommending specific actions or initiatives to
encourage or facilitate affordable housing.
Per state statute, at a minimum, the AHAC reviewed and made
recommendations on the following:
(a) The processing of approvals of development orders or permits, as
defined in F.S.163.3164 (7) and (8), for affordable housing projects is
expedited to a greater degree than other projects.
(b) The modification of impact-fee requirements, including reduction or
waiver of fees and alternative methods of fee payment for affordable
housing.
(c) The allowance of flexibility in densities for affordable housing.
(d) The reservation of infrastructure capacity or housing for very-low income
persons, low-income persons, and moderate-income persons.
(e) The allowance of affordable accessory residential units in residential
zoning districts.
(f) The reduction of parking and setback requirements for affordable
Page 10
City of Clearwater
Council Work Session Meeting Minutes December 4, 2017
housing.
(g) The allowance of flexible lot configurations, including zero-lot-line
configurations for affordable housing.
(h) The modification of street requirements for affordable housing.
(i) The establishment of a process by which a local government considers,
before adoption, policies, procedures, ordinances, regulations, or
plan provisions that increase the cost of housing.
Q) The preparation of a printed inventory of locally owned public lands
suitable for affordable housing.
(k) The support of development near transportation hubs and major
employment centers and mixed-use developments.
In August 2017, the Economic Development and Housing Department
contracted with Wade Trim, Inc. to help facilitate the process. Wade Trim
coordinated the preparation of the Local Housing Incentive Strategy report in
cooperation with the City's staff and the AHAC. The LHIS encompasses the
definition, vision, strategic focus areas and incentive recommendations in order
to facilitate the development and preservation of affordable housing in the City of
Clearwater. The AHAC convened on three separate occasions to
develop and identify the value of affordable housing, identify the principles for
Clearwater's affordable housing and develop a vision statement to be included
as part of the LHIS.
The report highlights an affordable housing vision statement that was derived
from input by committee members. Additionally, the AHAC members focused
on the values that affordable housing brings to the City of Clearwater. The
themes identified centered on the values that affordable housing supports a
dynamic and competitive economy, improves the social well-being that builds a
sense of community, and ensures that the City's workforce can live within the
city limits.
Furthermore, the AHAC also discussed and confirmed the principles that the
provisions of affordable housing in the City of Clearwater should embrace:
affordability over the long term, diversity that provides for a mix of income levels,
sustainability, accessibility for persons with physical barriers, well-designed, in
character with the surrounding neighborhood, strategically-located, and
pedestrian-oriented with access to mass transit and open space.
In summary, the report recommends the City continues in large part the
strategies, with minor changes and clarifications, from the 2014 LHIS Report.
One new recommendation was added for Council consideration:
(1) Recommendation 10.4 - The Economic Development and Housing
Department should coordinate with the Planning and Development
Department to identify properties having repeat code violations that may
Page 11
City of Clearwater
Council Work Session Meeting Minutes December 4, 2017
be suitable for rehabilitation, acquisition or demolition for affordable
housing.
(2) The LH IS report is due every three years on December 31 st of the year
preceding the submission of the Local Housing Assistance Plan (LHAP).
The report must be submitted to the City Council by December 31,
2017.
The City Council is being asked to review the LHIS recommendations that were
approved by the AHAC on November 28, 2017. By March 31, 2018, the City
Council will be asked to adopt an amendment to the LHAP to incorporate the
strategies it will implement for the City. The amendment must include, at a
minimum, the State required incentive strategies specified above.
Upon acceptance, the City of Clearwater is required to notify the State of its
adoption of an amendment to its LHAP to incorporate the incentive strategies.
The notice must also include a copy of the approved amended plan to
comply with the SHIP programs participation guidelines.
In response to questions, Economic Development and Housing Assistant
Director Chuck Lane said there may be funding programs that could facilitate
implementing the recommendation. To implement the accessory dwelling
unit on a residential lot recommendation, the City will have to amend the
Comprehensive Plan.
7. Information Technology
7.1 Award a Blanket Purchase Order to Encore Broadcast Systems, Inc. of Tampa, FL, in the

In response to questions, IT Director Dan Mayer said the equipment will
provide the ability to video-conference; if not adequate in the Office 365
Suite, staff will pursue a third-party product. Deputy City Manager Jill
Silverboard said video conferencing would assist with demonstrations from
existing or potential vendors. The technology has been used by consultants
or potential new employees, who would otherwise require travel cost. Mr.
Mayer said the Library and Parks and Recreation have added the project to
their operating budgets.
8. Solid Waste
8.1 Approve the purchase of HVAC replacement and repair parts in the amount of$300,000

Council Work Session Meeting Minutes December 4, 2017
System (CGS) complex located at 400 N Myrtle Ave, Clearwater. Engineering
will manage the CM at Risk construction contract for this project.
The current CGS buildings are over 35 years old and no longer meet the needs
of the department and have surpassed their lifespan. The proposed
redevelopment will include a two-phase construction schedule. The first phase
will include a Propane office/storage facility on the south end of the property,
Welding shop and a three-story Main building housing Administration,
Operations, Sales, Warehouse and records storage. The main building will be
hardened to withstand a category 5 hurricane (i.e., withstand 3-second wind
gusts of up to 223 mph along with enhanced impact resistance for windborne
debris). The second phase will include storage/support facilities and parking
lots.
Overall, the CGS redevelopment project will consists of seven new buildings:
#1 - Propane facility (small office and tank storage/refurbishment)
#2 - Propane truck parking structure
#3 - Gas pipe (coil type) storage garage
#4 - Gas pipe (40ft stick type) storage garage
#5 -Welding Shop
#6 - Energy Plant (Natural Gas Air conditioners/Chillers and standby generator)
#7 - Main building (Administration, Operations, Sales and Warehouse)
The Energy Plant will consist of three natural gas-powered chillers, one standby
generator and a 65kW electric generator that will provide continuous baseload
power for the CGS complex, in lieu of using Duke Energy electric. The
differential costs association with using natural gas technologies will be funded
by our Energy Conservation Allowance budget.
Construction is scheduled to begin in January 2018 and completed in April
2020. Current administrative and operation facilities will remain in place during
Phase I construction.
APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT:
Funds are budgeted and available in capital improvement project 315-96384

not included but have been budgeted. The public art component was
budgeted as a separate project.
Staff was directed to schedule a council discussion regarding the public art

component before it is designed.
9.3 Approve Brownfield Site Rehabilitation Agreement (BSRA) BF529701006 for the
property located at 400 N. Myrtle Avenue, Clearwater, Florida, formerly known as the
Clearwater Manufactured Gas Plant (MGP), parcel 09-29-15-74052-000-0020, located
within the designated Clearwater Brownfields Area and authorize the appropriate officials
to execute same. (consent)
The subject property is owned by the City of Clearwater (City) and is located
within the area designated as the Clearwater Brownfield Area. A manufactured
gas plant was operated by the City on the property until approximately 1959.
Since that time, the property has served as the offices and operations center for
Clearwater Gas System (CGS), the municipal gas system owned by the City.
The City wishes to redevelop the site as an expanded and upgraded campus of
Clearwater Gas System.
The City is a party to an Intergovernmental Agreement with the Florida
Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) that obligated the City to
investigate and remediate, if necessary, environmental impacts attributable to
the former operation of the Clearwater MGP on the property. To date, the City
has defined the horizontal and vertical limits of contamination attributable to the
Clearwater MGP and has evaluated select remediation technologies. The
contamination has not migrated from the site and the immediately adjacent
Pinellas County Department of Health property.
As a result of a pilot study performed on the property for the past several years,
the City has determined that there are limited remediation alternatives for the
property, with the most appropriate remedy incorporating an impervious cap
over the remaining impacted soils and a restriction from the use of groundwater
underlying the property. Regulations promulgated by FDEP after the date of the
Intergovernmental Agreement now provide for risk based closure of sites that
have limited environmental impacts, such as those present on the property.
The City's plan for redevelopment of the property will allow for properly
addressing the remaining environmental impacts while at the same time provide
the City with an opportunity to expand CGS' use of the property. Under the
Florida Brownfield Program, the City can recover certain marketable tax credits
for expenses incurred in connection with implementation of a remedy on a site
designated for redevelopment. In order to move forward with redevelopment of
the site under the state Brownfield Program, a Brownfield Site Rehabilitation
Agreement (BSRA) must be entered into between the City and the FDEP.
As required by Section 376.80 Florida Statutes, the draft BSRA and a summary
of environmental findings and recommendations were presented by Economic
Page 17
City of Clearwater
Council Work Session Meeting Minutes December 4, 2017
Development staff to the Brownfields Advisory Board at its October 5, 2017
meeting. The draft BSRA was submitted to the FDEP for review and accepted
in the form presented herein.
The BSRA enables the prompt review of all remaining environmental
documents, the ability to apply for and receive marketable state tax credits, the
use of federally awarded Brownfields revolving loan funds, and to provide
meaningful liability protections specified in the Brownfields Redevelopment Act
to the City.
Upon execution of the BSRA by the City and FDEP, a Brownfield Remedial
Action Plan will be completed and submitted to FDEP for review and approval.
Upon City approval, loan funds from the Brownfield Revolving Cleanup Loan
Fund Grant (BRCLF) can be used to complete eligible portions of the
remediation. In addition, the City may obtain marketable state tax credits for
eligible expenses incurred in completing the FDEP approved remedial action
components of the final site redevelopment plan.
Upon execution of the BSRA by the City and FDEP, the Intergovernmental
Agreement will be held in abeyance. FDEP will issue a site rehabilitation
completion order (SRCO) for the property upon completion of the remedy
approved by FDEP. Issuance of the SRCO will result in FDEP releasing the
City from any remaining obligations under the Intergovernmental Agreement.
In response to questions, Gas System Assistant Director Brian Langille said
the City would receive up to $500,000 a year in the construction phase tax
credits for capping the portion of the site that is over the contaminated area,
such as the foundation and asphalt work. CGS Managing Director Chuck
Warrington said the tax credits would help offset GMP cost.
10. Planning
10.1Authorize a Work Order to Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. of Tampa, Florida in the
amount of$125,000.00 to prepare a Complete Streets Concept Plan for the City of
Clearwater, and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent)
In March 2017, the City was awarded a grant from Forward Pinellas to develop
a Complete Streets Concept Design for Drew Street. On May 15, 2017 the
Planning and Development Department presented to City Council a roadmap
for developing the citywide Complete Streets plan. The citywide Complete
Streets Implementation Plan will further lead to the development of a
Bicycle/Pedestrian Master Plan and identify elements and measures
necessary to achieve the Bicycle Friendly Community Bronze designation
Page 18
City of Clearwater
Council Work Session Meeting Minutes December 4, 2017
On July 20, 2017, City Council accepted a grant from Forward Pinellas grant
for the Drew Street Concept Plan. The 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 objective of the citywide implementation plan is to set the foundation for a
roadway network that encourages mobility in the city. The citywide Complete
Streets Implementation Plan will include the following:
• Definition of Complete Streets Guiding Principles that will inform a Complete
Streets policy
• Development of a Complete Streets Citywide GIS Database/Facilities
Inventory
• Document the existing challenges and barriers
• Identify context classifications and street typologies with associated street
design guidance
• Development of a framework for projects prioritizations with robust evaluation
methodology and fair selection criteria that considers (cost, connectivity, safety,
demand, and equity)
• Development of performance measure metrics
• A detailed Action Plan for Implementation including funding options and
performance metrics
In 2016, Forward Pinellas, acting as the Pinellas Planning Council and Pinellas
County Metropolitan Planning Organization, approved six firms to provide
professional planning services for five general planning "sub areas," including
multimodal transportation planning and analysis, economic analysis,
communications and public involvement, urban design, and land
use/redevelopment. Code of Ordinances sec. 2.564 (1)(b) allows for
direct-contracting with consultants utilizing contracts previously awarded by
other governmental entities.
The Planning and Development Department had selected Kimley-Horn and
Associates, one of Forward Pinellas' shortlisted Consultants, to carry out the
citywide Complete Streets plan along with Drew Street Concept Plan.
Streamlining the two projects tasks will promote efficiency and effectiveness.
APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT:
Funds are available in cost code 010-01420-530100, Professional Services, to
fund this contract.
In response to a concern, the City Manager said Council agreed to embrace
the citizen request for a Complete Streets Plan for Drew Street and directed
Page 19
City of Clearwater
Council Work Session Meeting Minutes December 4, 2017
staff to pursue the plan, despite staffs recommendation to wait for an overall
city plan. The concept plan will set the boundaries and ideas of what staff is
trying to accomplish. If Council does not wish to pursue a Complete Streets
Plan, staff must be advised.
In response to questions, Long Range Planning Manager Lauren Matzke
said the item before Council is for the citywide implementation plan,
establishing a policy and identifying streets. Senior Planner Zain Adam said
Vision Zero relates to awareness campaign to decrease the traffic-pedestrian
fatalities. Ms. Matzke said the project was included in the Department's
annual budget.
10.2Authorize a Work Order to Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc., of Tampa, Florida, in the
amount of$75,000, to prepare a Complete Streets Concept Plan for Drew Street from
North Osceola Avenue to US Highway 19, and authorize the appropriate officials to
execute same. (consent)
On October 3, 2016, Forward Pinellas sent out a call for Complete Streets
projects, asking local governments to submit applications to request funding for
their Complete Streets projects. The Forward Pinellas Complete Streets
Program provides annual, competitive funding for both the planning and
construction of Complete Streets projects countywide.
The Planning and Development Department had submitted an application for
Complete Street Concept Plan for Drew Street from North Osceola Avenue to
US Highway 19. The City's primary goal for this Project is to develop a
Complete Streets Concept Plan that will enhance safety, mobility, and
accessibility while considering character criteria of the Drew Street corridor.
On March 8, 2017, Forward Pinellas selected the Drew Street Concept Plan to
receive one of the Complete Streets grants in the amount of$50,000 to be
matched by the City through direct funding and in-kind services. On July 20th,
2017, City Council approved Forward Pinellas' Complete Streets grant
agreement through Resolution 17-23. The resolution authorizes the City to
match the grant by $50,000 through direct funding and in-kind services.
The Drew Street Complete Street Concept Plan is intended to help aid the
transformation of Drew Street/SR-590, a constrained roadway, into a vibrant,
sustainable, and multi-modal spine that serves the area's transportation needs
as well as supports and attracts high-quality redevelopment opportunities.
The Drew Street Complete Street Concept Plan will provide the City with design
concepts for the corridor that include context sensitive improvements with a
focus on safety, accessibility, and comfort. The concepts should also assist the
City in addressing several long-term objectives:
• Improve safety and reduce the number of accidents along the corridor
Page 20
City of Clearwater
Council Work Session Meeting Minutes December 4, 2017
• Achieve balanced and increased accessibility and connectivity within the
corridor and surroundings area for all users
• Create a competitive advantage for existing businesses and support
future growth
• Promote active living by providing access to the City's trails and
promoting active transportation
• Support community engagement and consensus building
• Support the identification, conceptualization, and development of
feasible phased-improvements projects
• Identify available funding resources and strategies to prioritize corridor
improvements
In 2016, Forward Pinellas, acting as the Pinellas Planning Council and Pinellas
County Metropolitan Planning Organization, approved six firms to provide
professional planning services for five general planning "sub areas," including
multimodal transportation planning and analysis, economic analysis,
communications and public involvement, urban design, and land
use/redevelopment. Code of Ordinances sec. 2.564 (1)(b) allows for
direct-contracting with consultants utilizing contracts previously awarded by
other governmental entities.
The Planning and Development Department invited Forward Pinellas's
pre-qualified consultants to send Letters of Interest and Qualification Statement
for Drew Street Concept Plan. A team of City staff from the Planning &
Development, Engineering, and Parks & Recreation Departments carefully
reviewed each of the submittals received from three qualified firms. Each
submittal was reviewed on its qualification, project approach and responses to
the project-specific questions. The City selected Kimley-Horn and Associates
for the project; utilizing the Forward Pinellas/Kimley-Horn and Associates
contract would result in a cost savings to the City.
APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT:
A first quarter budget amendment will increase cost code 010-01420-530100
(Professional Services) by $50,000 with offsetting revenues from General Fund
reserves.
USE OF RESERVE FUNDS:
Funding for this contract will be provided by a first quarter budget amendment
allocating General Fund reserves in the amount of$50,000 to Planning cost
code 010-01420-530100 (Professional Services). Inclusive of this item if
approved, a net total of$5,050,000 of General Fund reserves has been
appropriated by Council to fund expenditures in the 2017/18 operating budget.
The remaining balance in General Fund reserves after the 8.5% reserve
requirement is approximately $10.1 million, including the BP settlement funds.
Exclusive of the BP funds, the remaining balance is $3.7 million, or 2.7% of the
current General Fund operating budget.

Council Work Session Meeting Minutes December 4, 2017
In response to questions, Deputy City Manager Jill Silverboard said the
citywide concept plan will prioritize projects and put the right policy pieces in
place, a specific work order would be required for particular segments that
would provide the design details and proposed features. The work order
would prepare the project for competitive grants and construction. Long
Range Planner Lauren Matzke said there may be simple solutions to a road,
such as re-striping, that would not require a detailed concept plan, Drew
Street is more substantive. Senior Planner Zain Adam said Drew Street will
be a pilot project to help staff develop a citywide Complete Streets strategy.
Ms. Matzke said the project will require additional community outreach and
engagement. The final concept plan may not include every single tactic on
the road proposed by the citizens group who brought forward the Complete
Streets Plan. Staff will come before Council half-way through the project to
ensure Council is comfortable with the plan.
10.3Adopt Ordinance 9062-17 on second reading, approving amendments to the Clearwater
Comprehensive Plan Utilities Element to address the City of Clearwater's Potable Water
Supply Facilities Work Plan (2016-2026 Planning Period). (CPA2017-06002)
On August 17, 2017, the Clearwater City Council approved on first reading
amendments to the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan to include updated
information based on the recent update to the Potable Water Supply Facilities
Work Plan (2016-2026) (Work Plan) completed by Tetra Tech, Inc. As required
by Florida Statutes, the proposed text amendments and the Work Plan were
submitted to the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) and other
required State agencies and Pinellas County for review and comment.
The Planning and Development Department received responses from DEO,
Florida Department of Transportation, Florida Department of Environmental
Protection, and Pinellas County stating they had no comments on and/or
objections to the proposed amendments and Work Plan. Staff received
comments from the Southwest Florida Water Management District (SWFWMD)
requesting that additional information be included within the Work Plan to fully
address the statutory requirements. However, no changes to the proposed
comprehensive plan amendments were required.
Engineering Department staff coordinated with Tetra Tech, Inc. to address the
SWFWMD's comments within the Work Plan.
