The CDB approved an application for flexibility to move the density away from the neighborhood and closer to Edgewater Drive, which allowed an increase in height on the resort facility high portion. On the residential medium portion, the height is 38 ft. above base flood elevation and on the resort facility high portion it is 86 ft. above base flood elevation. He said the previously approved vacation had a 10-ft. setback from the property line and 59 ft. in height.

(TA2019-10005) The City enforces unsafe building and housing cases through two different provisions: Article VII, Chapter 47, which adopts the 1985 Standard Unsafe Building Abatement Code with certain amendments, and Chapter 49, which adopts the 1991 Standard Housing Code with certain amendments. These codes were published by an entity known as the Southern Building Code Congress International, Inc. (SBCCI). In 1998 the SBCCI participated in the first ever International Property Maintenance Code (IPMC) which compiled the standard unsafe building code and the standard housing code into one uniform code. Several editions of the IPMC have been published throughout the years, Draft City Council Meeting Minutes December 19, 2019 Page 12 City of Clearwater and the 2018 edition is the latest one. The City desires to amend its unsafe building and housing codes in three respects. First, the City’s proposed ordinance adopts the IPMC with several local amendments. Second, the City’s proposed ordinance expands the power of the Building/Flood Board of Adjustment and Appeals (the Flood Board or the Board). Under the new ordinance, the Flood Board now has the power to enter orders requiring repair of unsafe structures and to allow the City to enter onto the property to make the repairs on the owner’s behalf. Finally, the remaining amendments are technical in nature and remove certain references to the Standard Unsafe Building Abatement Code and the Standard Housing Code found in the Code. The Planning and Development Department has determined that the proposed text amendments to the Code are consistent with and furthers the goals, objectives and policies of the Comprehensive Plan and the Code as outlined in the staff report. The Community Development Board also reviewed the proposed amendment at its November 19, 2019 meeting and unanimously recommended approval. Vice Mayor Cundiff moved to approve amendments to the Community Development Code to adopt the International Property Maintenance Code with Certain Local Amendments in Section 3-1502 in place of Chapter 47, Article VII, Unsafe Buildings and Systems and Chapter 49, Housing Code and expanding the powers of the Building/Flood Board of Adjustment and Appeals to hear violations and appeals related to the International Property Maintenance Code.

City Manager Reports 10.1 Amend the Clearwater Code of Ordinances, Chapter 25 - Public Transportation Carriers, Article I - Public Conveyances to define commercial megacycles and definitions to establish standards for commercial megacycles, to require a license for commercial mega cycles to be operated in the city and to add penalties and pass Ordinance 9356-20 on first reading. In August of 2019, staff was tasked with examining the feasibility of permitting the operation of megacycles in the City of Clearwater. After conducting research on a local and state level, staff developed a pilot program to determine the viability of the program. It has been determined that an amendment to the Clearwater Code of Ordinances, Chapter 25 - Public Transportation Carriers, Article I - Public Conveyances would be needed to administer the pilot program. Councilmember Polglaze moved to amend the Clearwater Code of Ordinances, Chapter 25 - Public Transportation Carriers, Article I - Public Conveyances to define commercial megacycles and definitions to establish standards for commercial megacycles, to require a license for commercial mega cycles to be operated in the city and to add penalties. The motion was duly seconded. One individual spoke in support. In response to a question, the City Attorney said the alcoholic exemption is the same as a limousine. Discussion ensued with comments made that the peddle pubs are called that because they permit alcohol, the success on Clearwater Beach is due to the diverse activities and restaurant establishments offered, people have fun on them. A concern was expressed regarding safety and vehicular traffic if the peddle pubs are permitted to operate. It was stated that Clearwater Beach became the number one beach without the peddle pubs. Councilmember Hamilton moved to amend Item 10.1 to allow alcohol during 6-month pilot. The motion was duly seconded. In response to questions, Police Chief Daniel Slaughter said the Department battles to balance the tourist-residential district and maintain Draft City Council Meeting Minutes December 19, 2019 Page 16 City of Clearwater the family atmosphere. There are plenty of legal opportunities for people to partake in alcohol. Once permitted, the business will try to survive and do whatever to keep the business model running. He expressed concern with those individuals who will get excessive that could potentially cause additional disruption. He said the police department is an implementer of policy and will implement whatever council decides. Assistant City Attorney Matthew Smith said if alcohol is permitted, the City would need to amend the existing ordinance and consider what alcoholic beverages would be permitted. If Council wishes to restrict the alcoholic beverages to beer and wine, the ordinance must state the restriction. Staff will come back with an amended ordinance. There was consensus to allow beer and wine. Staff was directed to draft an ordinance to allow beer and wine. The motion to amend was withdrawn. Upon the vote being taken, the motion failed with the following vote: Ayes: 1 - Mayor Cretekos Nays: 4 - Councilmember Polglaze, Councilmember Hamilton, Vice Mayor Cundiff and Councilmember Allbritton 10.2 Authorize the negotiated sale of not to exceed $25,000,000 Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2020 and adopt Resolution 19-37.

Current bond-market conditions present an opportunity to refund these bonds to achieve a present value savings exceeding the level designated in the City’s debt management policy. The City’s debt management policy states, “As a general rule, the present value savings of a particular refunding should exceed 5%.” This resolution authorizes the negotiated sale of not to exceed $25,000,000 par value of Water and Sewer Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2020 and authorizes awarding the sale to Raymond James & Associates, Inc., a member of the underwriting team approved by Council in June 2017 per Resolution 17-20.

(consent) SUMMARY: Since 2016 the Clearwater Arts Alliance has created numerous works of public art through their “Thinking Outside the Box” traffic signal box wrap program. This program commissions local artists to produce vinyl wraps that are applied to traffic signal boxes throughout the city of Clearwater. The Clearwater Arts Alliance has submitted an application seeking discretionary funds to provide for an additional six artistically enhanced signal boxes through Phase 5 of the organization’s neighborhood initiative. To address requests of this nature the Public Art & Design Board has developed guidelines to govern the application process for discretionary fund assistance. Applications must be sponsored by a neighborhood, community, or arts organization and must align with the goals and objectives of the 2007 Public Art Master Plan. The Clearwater Arts Alliance’s application supports the City’s Strategic Vision by providing public art for the citizens and visitors of Clearwater and aligns with the Public Art Master Plan for projects that strengthen civic connectivity and support neighborhood identity. These projects facilitate a visual language that helps make Clearwater’s neighborhoods identifiable and unique and create points of pride within individual neighborhoods. At the September 12, 2019 Public Art & Design Program meeting, the Board voted to unanimously approve the Clearwater Arts Alliance funding request and submits its recommendation that the City Council approve this grant. APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: Funds are available in capital project 315-A1901, Miscellaneous Public Art, to fund this grant. Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 1/13/2020 PUBLIC ART & DESIGN PROGRAM DISCRETIONARY FUND GRANT ASSISTANCE Program Mission The mission of the Public Art & Design program is to add to the visual identity of the city of Clearwater, creating memorable images of the city for visitors and residents alike. Public art reinforces Clearwater’s role as a regional leader in culture, recreation and environmental management, and it supports the City’s development as a wonderful place to live, learn, work and play. Discretionary Fund Grant Assistance On occasion, neighborhood and community organizations and arts advocacy agencies will develop projects that align with the Public Art Master Plan and would benefit from Discretionary Fund grant assistance. This document is to codify the process of reviewing funding requests. Public Art Master Plan Criteria for Funding Community-led Projects The Public Art Master Plan provides support for Neighborhood Identity and other community-led projects based on the following criteria: • Projects in areas with an active community interested in working with an artist should take a higher priority than projects elsewhere; • Projects in areas that do not have public art should take a higher priority than projects elsewhere; • Projects should not rely solely on the Discretionary Fund for support; • Projects located in the following neighborhoods should take higher priority than projects elsewhere: o Brookhill o East Gateway o Glen Oaks o Lake Belleview o Milton Park o North Greenwood o Skycrest o Spring Branch o Sunset Highlands Funding Restrictions Discretionary Fund Grant Assistance must be expended in the city fiscal year (October 1 – September 30) in which it was approved. Applicants receiving funding must register their social security or FEID number with the city for tax purposes. Tiers of Discretionary Fund Grant Assistance Organizations applying for Discretionary Fund grant assistance will declare their project as fitting in one of three tiers: Tier I: Grants up to $2,000 Tier I projects are smaller in scale or scope and are typically coordinated by neighborhood or community organizations. Requests for this tier of grant assistance will be paired with a city department that will provide oversight to ensure that the project follows best practices and is completed in compliance with city codes and ordinances. Examples of Tier I projects include: traffic signal boxes, storm drain murals, trash receptacle murals, and smaller wall murals. Tier II: Grants from $2,000 to $10,000 Tier II projects are average to larger in scale and scope and will involve a joint effort between a neighborhood or community organization and an arts advocacy agency. Requests for this tier of grant assistance are presented by the sponsoring arts advocacy agency, who will provide oversight to ensure the project follows best practices. A city department will be paired with each Tier II project to ensure that all applicable permits are obtained, and the project complies with city codes and ordinances. Examples of Tier II projects include: Multiple traffic signal box installations, medium to larger wall murals, and small sculptures and site-specific public artwork. Tier III: Grants over $10,000 Tier III projects are large in scale and scope and will involve a joint effort between multiple neighborhood or community organizations, arts advocacy agencies, and city departments. Requests for this tier of grant assistance are presented as a partnership between a lead arts advocacy agency and city department. These projects should have a significant community presence and are typically the result of a focused dialogue or specific design intended to respond to community needs. Tier III projects must have a specific goal or outcome that incorporates one or more of the goals and objectives of the Clearwater Cultural Plan or Public Art Master Plan. Applicants must include a mechanism by which projects are evaluated to measure impact and success. Examples of Tier III projects include: Large wall murals, multiple installations of a similar theme across a broad area, larger sculptures and site- specific public artwork. Review Process and Criteria Prior to presenting the project for Public Art & Design Board review, the Cultural Affairs Coordinator will review the project for feasibility and to determine any significant engineering or maintenance issues related to the choice of materials or other issues that that may arise from the placement or creation of the artwork. Once approved, the application will be added to the next regularly scheduled Public Art & Design Board meeting agenda. The applicant will present their project to the Public Art & Design Board and will detail how the project meets the mission, goals, and objectives of the Clearwater Cultural Plan and/or the Public Art Master Plan and how it will be of benefit to the community. The Public Art & Design Board will then discuss the application, asking any applicable questions of the applicant, and will approve or disapprove the grant funding request by a simple majority vote on the basis of the following criteria: • Project feasibility and the ability of the applicant to ensure that the project will be completed as envisioned; • Compatibility with the mission, goals, and objectives of the Clearwater Cultural Plan and/or the Public Art Master Plan; • Maintenance and vandalism mitigation plan; • Applicant’s demonstrated history of success with similar projects; • Anticipated community impact. If approved, the Cultural Affairs Coordinator will coordinate with the applicant to provide the approved level of funding. If disapproved, the applicant may: • Resubmit an amended application and attend a future, regularly scheduled Public Art & Design Board meeting to address the Board’s discussion of the project; • Partner with another organization or agency to resubmit an amended application; • Withdraw their application funding request. Denial of funding does not prohibit the applicant from making future funding requests.

Clearwater Arts AllianceTHE CLEARWATER PUBLIC ART ORDINANCE•After the CCP was enacted, CAA then lobbied strongly for the passage of the Clearwater Public Art Ordinance in 2005. •By that ordinance, the Public Art and Design Program was created. •In effect since October 2006, this program requires that city capital improvement projects with a construction budget greater than $500,000 must contribute 1% of the project's aggregate job value towards the purchase and installation of public art. Clearwater Arts AllianceTHE PUBLIC ART AND DESIGN BOARD•This board, the Public Art and Design Board (PADB) was created under the art ordinance. •Among PADB responsibilities is to administer the funds raised through the city building process. •CAA vigorously supports the city’s public art process, appoints a representative to PADB, sponsors receptions for newly installed works, and encourages and facilitates private developer installations. Clearwater Arts AllianceCAA’S PUBLIC ART PROJECTSBesides helping with city public art programs, CAA pursues its own public art projects.•Pianos in Pinellas•Clearwater Cultural Map•Private Developer Public Art Guide•City Parking Garage Art Cabinet Displays•Thinking Outside the Box art wrapped signal box program. Clearwater Arts AllianceTHINKING OUTSIDE THE BOXIn 2014, CAA started pursuing an interesting public art program- the covering of drab signal boxes with artistic images. We decided to call it “Thinking Outside the Box”. We then did research, found what had worked best elsewhere, determined how to legally proceed and what materials were best to use. By 2015, CAA had decided that wrapping vs painting was best; selected a quality long- lasting vinyl material; developed protocols for the artists and installation; chose 3 local professional artists (3 images each) and worked with the City to get approved locations. Clearwater Arts AllianceTHINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX• Phase 1: CAA funded 3 prototype wraps (and paid the artists for the right to use their images) 2015-16• Phase 2: CAA secured DDB funding and installed 6 wraps in the Downtown Core. 2016• Phase 3: CAA got discretionary city manager funding and did 8 more wraps at highly visible corners & entry points into the city. 2017 • Phase 4: Did a 2nd artist call for more images and secured private sponsorships or CAA self-funded to install 9 more art wraps. 2017- now Clearwater Arts AllianceTHINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX Clearwater Arts AllianceTHINKING OUTSIDE THE BOXPhase 5: Neighborhood Image and Identity Process• Local artists will work with specific neighborhoods to develop unique images. To fulfill the ordinance and public art master plan guidelines, the artists will collaborate with neighbors to create images that will support neighborhood identity and make points of pride, focusing on less-served areas and those lacking art.• Artists would meet with neighborhood groups to come up with concepts and residents would be part of selection of artistic images and location of signal boxes. Clearwater Arts AllianceTHINKING OUTSIDE THE BOXPhase 5: Request for Funding For Neighborhood Image and Identity Art Wrapped Signal Boxes• Based on our experience, we know it will cost approximately $1500.00 per wrapped box •$1000.00for vinyl wrap and installation cost (varies some by box size due to costs for proper quality vinyl)•$500.00artist fee •$1500.00 x 6 = $9000.00.Funding at this level would allow us to create at least 6 wrapped signal boxes in 6 different neighborhoods. CAA would concentrate on first reaching areas that the cultural plan has identified as lacking in artistic amenities. Clearwater Arts AllianceTHINKING OUTSIDE THE BOXAnswering fairness concerns raised at prior PADB meeting, CAA will ensure equitable use of funds as follows:. The Public Art Master Plan lists several areas as under-served as to art (N. Greenwood; Lake Belleview; Brookhill; East Gateway; Glen Oaks; Milton Park; Skycrest; Spring Branch; Sunset Highlands). Neighborhood Dept. and Juliahna will alert these neighborhoods first of the signal box opportunity.. CAA will send out a call to neighborhoods asking if they want to participate. The group must agree to work with an artist to create a unique neighborhood image. Groups will have 30 days to respond and fill out an application similar to that already in use by Juliahna’s dept.. Neighborhood groups that have a Clearwater controlled box and timely respond will be ranked by CAA (working with Christopher and Juliahna). Extra points will be given to 1) areas lacking in art and 2) areas where clumping of art efforts is possible.. The first 6 neighborhoods by ranking will be selected for a box wrap. Clearwater Arts AllianceTHINKING OUTSIDE THE BOXHave we answered your questions?After the June 2019 PADB meeting, CAA met with Christopher and Juliahna several times to be sure that this project, as proposed, complies with the Public Art Master Plan for use of discretionary funds. The general concept of this use had already been cleared with city legal by Madai months ago. After these consultations, and in response to the funding equity issues PADB raised, we have reworked our suggested process. As now designed, all neighborhoods, regardless of financial ability will have a fair chance for placement of these new art amenities in their areas provided that they agree to actively collaborate with the artist to create a unique image for their community.Thank you for Your Consideration.

Osceola Avenue Clearwater, FL 33755 File Number: ID#19-7269 Agenda Date: 1/16/2020 Status: Consent AgendaVersion: 1 File Type: Action ItemIn Control: City Manager's Office Agenda Number: 7.2 SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION: Approve a funding agreement between the City of Clearwater and the Pinellas Suncoast Transit Authority (PSTA) to provide enhanced Jolley Trolley service during Spring Break period of March 1, 2020 through April 30, 2020, with the City contributing a lump sum not to exceed $93,415 and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent) SUMMARY: Alternatives for traveling to Clearwater Beach during the Spring Break season are critical to the economic vitality of Clearwater and our tourism industry. The City and PSTA propose utilizing the parking lot at 112 S. Osceola Ave and two other lots adjacent to the 112 S. Osceola Ave lot as park and ride lots for the 61-day period commencing March 1, 2020, through April 30, 2020. Parking meters at the 112 S. Osceola Ave lot will be suspended during this period. Instead of driving, users will have the option of taking the free Trolley services to and from the Beach or paying to ride the Clearwater Ferry Taxi Service. The Trolley service will be free only for people who board the trolley at the 112 S. Osceola Ave lot park and ride site, at the Clearwater Beach Transit Station on the north side of Memorial Causeway, or at the Clearwater Beach Municipal Marina designated pick up location. PSTA currently provides regular service on several routes between Downtown and Clearwater Beach, as well as north and south along the Beach. PSTA operates the Suncoast Beach Trolley which runs from Downtown Clearwater south to St. Pete Beach, and has an agreement with the Jolley Trolley to operate a Beach circulator (North and South Beach routes), as well as the Coastal route connecting to Tarpon Springs. As part of this agreement, PSTA developed a service plan that will increase the number of vehicles serving the Beach during the Spring Break season, especially on the weekend periods from Friday through Sunday during spring break periods for local school districts and during the three weekends of the Sugar Sands Festival. The proposed agreement sets forth the City’s commitment to contribute a lump sum not to exceed $93,415 towards PSTA’s additional financial obligations, including PSTA’s agreement with the Jolley Trolley to provide enhanced service on its Beach circulator routes during the Spring Break season. Riders will have significantly shorter wait times this season with additional plug-in vehicles to maintain the service headway at 15-minute intervals at the 112 S. Osceola Ave lot. The free park and ride service is planned to start at 10:00 AM and end at the regular close of service (approximately 10:00 PM Sunday-Thursday and 12:00 AM Friday/Saturday). The City and PSTA have developed a marketing plan that includes a media campaign and promotional components. Directional signs for park and ride locations and Dynamic Message Signs will also be deployed. Coordination with, and information about, other transportation alternatives such as the Clearwater Ferry will be included in the materials developed.

Fuino City Clerk Assistant City Attorney Cover Memo City of Clearwater Main Library - Council Chambers 100 N. Osceola Avenue Clearwater, FL 33755 File Number: ID#19-7275 Agenda Date: 1/16/2020 Status: Consent AgendaVersion: 1 File Type: Action ItemIn Control: City Manager's Office Agenda Number: 7.3 SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION: Authorize an amendment to the original agreement with HR and A Advisors, of New York, NY, in an amount not to exceed $19,500, for the development of a Request for Proposal (RFP) document and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent) SUMMARY: HR&A Advisors (HR&A) was originally authorized by Council on April 21, 2016 for $378,000 to produce the Imagine Clearwater Master Plan. In June of 2019, the City of Clearwater contracted with HR&A for an update of the economic and market analysis which focused on the development of the Harborview site Request for Proposals, negotiation of development proposals, and assisting with the evaluation of proformas for development options in the amount of $100,000. Based on the results of the economic and market analysis, staff believes it is necessary for HR&A to further assist in the development of an RFP and provide direct developer outreach. This is in the context of an amendment to the original agreement with HR&A on the basis of work they’ve already performed, and to maintain continuity in the process. With this amendment the total project cost will be $497,500. APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: Funds of $19,500 are available in capital project ENGF180013, Imagine Clearwater Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 1/13/2020 New York | Dallas | Los Angeles | Raleigh | Washington DC December 13, 2019 Michael Delk Assistant City Manager City of Clearwater One Clearwater Tower, 6th Floor 600 Cleveland St. Clearwater, FL 33756 Re: Task 3. RFP Document Development Add-on Proposal Dear Michael: Following our conversation and expanding our current contract to support the City of Clearwater on the redevelopment of three City-owned waterfront sites, HR&A Advisors, Inc. (HR&A) would like to propose additional services to advance Task 3, RFP Document Development, in our agreement dated July 9, 2019. Upon completion of Task 2 in our scope of work—a collaborative process to develop a market scan and feasibility assessment for the redevelopment of the Harborview, the City Hall, and the Pierce Street sites— HR&A and the City have charted a solicitation strategy to raise awareness and interest from qualified development teams across the three City-owned Bluff sites. We share the vision of the City of Clearwater to use these sites to catalyze activity and bring economic development Downtown. As we consider structuring a successful solicitation process, there are three main areas of need that differ from assumptions under our current scope of work: • Expansion to three sites. Per our recent discussion and building upon HR&A’s recommendations, the City is looking to proceed with a request for qualifications (RFQ) for the three City-owned sites, to gather feedback from the market on the preference for a stand-alone site disposition in comparison to a packaged disposition of more than one site. Our current proposal contemplates supporting the development of a procurement document for the Harborview site only. The need to cover in the procurement document the specific characteristics, conditions, and economics of the three sites separately and the areawide development represents an additional level of effort. • Marketing content. Aware of the challenges of developing new higher-density typologies in the downtown Clearwater market, we understand the procurement documents will need to carefully describe the opportunity of being a City partner on the transformation of Downtown through the development of sites with unique water views and adjacent to the ambitions signature park envisioned in Imagine Clearwater. Conversations with the regional development community highlighted the need to actively market the opportunities of the sites and the overall Clearwater market, which are currently undervalued. The solicitation documents will need to be a strong marketing tool in addition to an effective procurement instrument, and some modest additional effort is required to enhance the document with data and messaging on market opportunities. • Direct developer outreach. Additionally, the developer and stakeholder engagement conducted in Task 2, in which over 60 developers were contacted but only 10 were responsive to our request for an interview, suggests the need for a more targeted and strategic outreach to ensure the RFQ HR&A Advisors, Inc. Clearwater Task 3 Add-on Proposal | 2 document reaches and appeals to a larger number of high-quality respondents. Our current scope of work contemplates only the preparation of a distribution list. To promote a robust pool of RFQ responses, HR&A proposes to target the distribution list prepared during our outreach as part of Task 2, identify a path to conduct personalized outreach through existing HR&A and City contacts, and lead that outreach process to build awareness and raise interest through a combination of personalized emails and phone calls. For the purposes of developing a budget, we assume direct telephonic outreach to up to 20 target regional development firms. HR&A can complete the activities described above following the same timeline described in our contract for a fixed fee of $19,500, which includes approximately $8,500 in incremental costs for changes to the solicitation document and $11,000 in cost for developer outreach activities. HR&A will invoice on a monthly basis, based on percentage completion with payment due in 45 days. Thank you for the opportunity to submit this proposal and contribute to this important component of Imagine Clearwater and the reinvigoration of downtown. Please feel free to call or email me at 212.977.2704 or cary@hraadvisors.com with any questions you may have. Sincerely, Cary Hirschstein Partner HR&A Advisors, Inc.

SCOPE OF WORK HR&A anticipates that meeting the City's objectives will require two phases of work: Phase 1: A high-level market scan to understand recent real estate activity, particularly absorption of multifamily residential and associated ground -floor retail development; developer engagement to inform the City's market understanding and begin to raise awareness about the opportunity; and the development of a compelling solicitation document for the current site of the Harborview Center. Phase 2: Support in the launch and management of the solicitation; the evaluation of responses and support in negotiations with one or more developers; and the development of materials supporting the referendum/referenda. As part of this assignment, we assume that we will collaborate with an architectural firm, whose main task would be the development of massings of building forms to allow for the testing of various redevelopment scenarios, potentially including the delineation of a building envelope, design guidelines, and illustrative renderings to support the solicitation and/or referendum/referenda. Per our conversation, this firm will be selected in consultation with the City, and we have not designated a detailed design scope or budget here within our proposal. Phase 1: Market Reconnaissance and Solicitation Drafting Task 1. Project Reconnaissance & Kickoff 1.1 Proiect Reconnaissance: Upon receiving notice to proceed, HR&A will arrange a call with the City team to discuss its objectives and desired outcomes for the redevelopment of the Bluff sites. We will also begin to conduct initial project reconnaissance, including reviewing publicly -available property information on the three City sites, past and present development proposals for these sites and other adjacent sites, and any relevant City -led plans or recent regulatory actions that might impact the proposed development. During this period, HR&A will prepare a data request to obtain additional relevant information held by the City and not previously shared during the Imagine Clearwater master planning process, which may include previous appraisals and studies prepared regarding the sites, information around program and financial assumptions, including construction budgets, particularly related to infrastructure costs, and further detailed program information. We would also kick off work with the City's architect. Deliverable: HR&A will provide a data request within one work week of project commencement. Task 2. Market Scan & Feasibility Analysis To underpin our analysis, HR&A will evaluate the market potential and feasibility for development on the three City sites. We will build on the previous market study completed by HR&A for Imagine Clearwater in order to maximize efficiency. 2.1 Market Scan and Data Update: HR&A will update our understanding of market conditions for uses identified as priorities by the City, namely multifamily residential and retail, gathering data for the most recent market metrics and trends in the metropolitan area and any potential impacts of the investments made to -date in Downtown Clearwater and relevant comparable markets on real estate values. We will utilize our team's past analysis of the local market as a foundation for this analysis, but will also collect more recent data to inform assumptions on revenues and costs (both one-time and ongoing) related to the development of the three sites. We will rely on data provided by third - party sources such cis ESRI Business Analyst (drawing from Census data) for demographic data, Zillow (or equivalent) for residential data, and CoStar for retail data, among others. We will supplement this data with information provided by the City, as well as primary data from market reports and outreach to local brokers and developers, as needed. 2.2 Developer and Stakeholder Engagement Trip: HR&A will work with the City team to begin engaging a shortlist of local and regional developers with experience in delivering high-quality mixed-use projects. We will develop a list of promising firms and travel to Clearwater to meet with representatives to gather market information to supplement the data collected through Task 2.1, gauge interest in the three City sites, outline core considerations that inform project opportunity and risk, and begin to raise awareness of future solicitation(s). During this trip, we will also meet with additional stakeholders and the client team in Clearwater and will share the outcome of our outreach meetings during a wrap-up discussion with the City and key stakeholders, if desired. 2.3 Architect Engagement: HR&A will share the results of the market scan with the architectural team to inform their development of basic site massings and development scenarios for the City sites. HR&A will work with the team to refine these diagrams for inclusion in the final solicitation. 2.4 Webinar: Development Scenarios: HR&A will conduct a webinar to brief the City client team on our market scan and developer engagement meetings, and recommend a series of scenarios and key variables to be studies under the Task 2.5 financial feasibility analysis. 2.5 Financial Feasibility Model and Gap Analysis: Based on the financial assumptions developed during our market scan, we will build a multi-year cash flow model to evaluate the financial feasibility of development on the three City sites and test the effect of key variables on feasibility and project value. Several scenarios will be evaluated based on density of development and the horizontal costs that the developer must bear to deliver a physically -feasible project.' HR&A will work with the City team to determine the most critical variables to test within the model. HR&A's will create a dynamic pro forma to test key variables and demonstrate the project's redevelopment feasibility (or financial gap). Key variables may include those items described above, as well as the type and number of residential units, type and square footage of any ground - floor commercial uses, cost assumptions, phasing, assumed profit margin, or others. The pro forma will project the value of land under different redevelopment scenarios, an objective metric against which the City can later evaluate development proposals and proposed transaction terms. For budgeting purposes, we presume running no more than two scenarios per development site, if needed. 2.6 Webinar: Findings Presentation: HR&A will conduct a work session via web conference with the City to present the financial model's draft outputs and answer any questions as we move forward to Task 3. Deliverable: Presentation summarizing findings from Task 2 analyses. 1 The City may elect to hire a cost estimator to provide locally -sourced horizontal cost assumptions, particularly if the City team wishes to test specific development typologies not commonly found in Clearwater but desirable at these highly valuable sites — e.g., subterranean structured parking. Task 3. RFP Document Development Building off of the financial feasibility model and gap analysis developed in Task 2.4, which will be broadly applicable to all three City sites, in Task 3 HR&A will support the creation of a single Request for Proposals RFP") for development on the Harborview Center site, identified by the City team as a vital "first move" within the group of three sites. The City may choose to adapt this document for subsequent site disposition solicitations for the other three bluff sites 3.1 Referendum strateay: HR&A understands that any disposition of City property — and particularly of sites along the Osceola Avenue bluff — requires constituent approval via a voter referendum process. As part of developing a strategy for the disposition of the City's three Bluff sites, HR&A will facilitate a discussion with the City team on referendum/referenda strategy, in terms of timing with the disposition process and determination of whether the next referendum should address one or multiple sites. 3.2 Distribution list: Building on the list of regional developers targeted for outreach in Task 2, HR&A will work with the City team to develop a targeted distribution list for circulating the solicitation document. 3.3 Drafting key elements of the RFP documents: HR&A will support development of the key business terms and related content for an RFP. We will develop an outline of these sections for review with City staff, develop an initial draft of key RFP content, including the solicitation's goals, requested scope, terms, and evaluation criteria, and provide this to the City to be supplemented by the City's required forms, documents, and language. HR&A will coordinate with City staff to revise and refine this content as needed prior to release. If exhibits are needed to define the opportunity or provide existing condition information to potential respondents, HR&A will advise on the most compelling and clear presentation of these materials, aimed at eliciting a strong response from the market, and coordinate with the City and other consultants to produce exhibits for inclusion in the RFP. As mentioned previously, we assume that the City's architect will develop illustrative massings for the sites that are in line with the City's objectives, identify comparable developments to be presented to prospective developers, outline core design guidelines and, as deemed necessary, provide illustrative renderings. 3.4 RFP approval support: As needed, HR&A will support the City in preparing for review by key City staff. HR&A will review consolidated comments from the City team and commit to making up to two rounds of RFP language revisions. Deliverables By the end of Task 3, HR&A will deliver RFP scope language, evaluation criteria, and solicitation process information for inclusion in a solicitation document for release to the public upon completion of this task. Task 4. Pre -Response Submission Support To support City staff's preparation for receipt of responses, HR&A will conduct the following tasks. 4.1 Support preparation for a pre-bid conference: HR&A will develop presentation materials related to the goal, scope, and business term elements of the RFP for the City's use in a pre-bid conference call. We recommend encouraging all interested respondents to join, to allow for questions and discussion of the RFP's key terms and to provide the City with an early sense of market interest. HR&A assumes that the City will deliver the presentation, and we will plan to participate via conference call. 4.2 Respond to questions and prepare RFP amendments: HR&A will manage receipt of questions regarding the RFP and work to draft or obtain the appropriate responses. HR&A will draft a set of aggregated questions and responses, or as needed create "batches" of questions and responses, to be reviewed by City staff prior to release to respondents and posting publicly by the City. If questions indicate a need to issue any amendments to the RFP, HR&A will draft and publish these amendments, for up to two rounds of Q&A and/or amendments to be prepared and posted. Deliverables: Presentation materials for the pre-bid conference; question and answer documents and/or addenda to the RFP for the City's review and release. Phase 2: Evaluation of Solicitation Responses and Negotiation Support Task 5. Proposal Evaluation As the City receives RFP responses, HR&A will support the evaluation of submitted proposals. Anticipated tasks may include: 5.1 Conduct respondent due diligence: HR&A will review information provided by respondents and conduct additional background research as needed to understand critical information such as developer credentials, prior projects, financial wherewithal and outcomes of participation in similar projects. Where key information is missing or unavailable from responses and desktop research, HR&A will draft questions to respondents on key points of clarification. 5.2 Initial response evaluation: To support the evaluation committee's review, HR&A will provide an objective assessment of respondents' proposed agreement terms and elements, evaluating how completely respondents fulfill the criteria set forth by the City. 5.3 Facilitate City evaluation process: HR&A will facilitate the City's comprehensive evaluation of proposals, including an initial draft of a scoring matrix, and leading discussions with the City's selection committee to rank proposals. HR&A will rely on City staff for scheduling and other logistical support during this process. 5.4 Respondent interviews: As needed, HR&A will work with City staff to prepare for and conduct interviews with shortlisted respondents. We anticipate that this will include managing development of key questions and facilitating gathering of information during and following the interview process. 5.5 City leadership review: Upon completion of the initial evaluation process, HR&A will support City staff in preparing a staff report and/or presentation to leadership to summarize responses, evaluations, and to request authorization to proceed into the negotiation phase, described in Task 6, with one or more respondents. Deliverables: An evaluation framework for the City's evaluation committee; a presentation summarizing our initial evaluation of responses, accompanied by key questions for respondents; agendas and questions for respondent interviews, if needed. Task 6. Preferred Proposer Negotiations & Transaction Support HR&A will be available to support the City's negotiation of terms with the preferred developer for a deal structure that is mutually beneficial to the City and the developer. Subtasks may include: 6.1 Supporting term sheet drafting and negotiations: HR&A will support drafting and negotiations of an initial term sheet between the City and one or more preferred respondents. This process will refine the offers provided by developers, provide the City with a final point of leverage in negotiations, and seek to solidify the key terms to be included in an agreement with the preferred partner. 6.2 Supporting agreement drafting and negotiations: Based on the term sheet developed in the task above, HR&A will work with the City's transaction counsel to develop a final form of agreement between the City and the preferred development partner. HR&A will review and comment on key business terms within this agreement, but will rely primarily on transaction counsel for agreement drafting. 6.3 Presenting negotiated deal terms to City leadership for approval: As required, HR&A will prepare a presentation synthesizing key deal terms with the preferred development partner for City leadership approval. As with any task involving City leadership, the length of time needed to complete this task will be dependent on the scheduling of meetings as well as any presentation or meeting requirements regarding the approval of such an agreement. Deliverables: Final term sheet for an operating agreement, and support to finalize the agreement.

(consent) SUMMARY: The Parks and Recreation Department organizes field trips requiring bus transportation for participants. The Pinellas County School System allows municipalities to utilize their fleet of buses and drivers for $1.50 per mile plus $29.00 per hour for driver with a five-hour booking minimum. During the summer of 2020, the department will organize approximately 150 field trips that may utilize school bus transportation. Comparing a sampling cost of school buses for these trips against the use of private bus lines indicates school buses are generally a less costly mode of transportation. During the past year, the City utilized school buses for field trips at a cost of approximately $15,000. Approval of this Agreement will provide staff with a larger number of options when determining the most cost-effective source of transportation for participants. The Agreement is similar to agreements between the Pinellas County School Board and other Pinellas County municipalities that utilize school bus transportation. This item supports the City's Strategic Plan by partnering with other public organizations to be more efficient in providing services and programs to the youth of our community. APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: Funds are available in various account codes in the Recreation Programming Division’s Operating Budget to cover the costs associated with this Agreement.

(consent) SUMMARY: On April 18, 2019, City Council approved the annual co-sponsorship list and funding for Fiscal Year 2019/20 for budget purposes. Included in that list was the annual Sea Blues Festival that is scheduled for February 22 and 23, 2020. At that time, staff was under the impression that VSPC would sponsor the event at the same level as 2019. On October 2, 2019, staff provided an update to Council regarding the reduction of sponsorship from VSPC from $81,712 in cash and advertising to $25,000 in cash for Sea Blues. This year marks the 15th year of the Sea Blues Festival, a free community event held in Coachman Park. This event brings in visitors and guests from across the country to participate in this festival. Due to the provision of indemnity in the agreement, city legal staff recommended that it come to City Council for approval.

The City will determine whether the bid complies with the instructions for submitting bids including completeness of bid which encompasses the inclusion of all required attachments and submissions. The City must reject any bids that are submitted late. Failure to meet other requirements may result in rejection. b) Responsibility. The City will determine whether the bidder is one with whom it can or should do business. Factors that the City may evaluate to determine "responsibility" include, but are not limited to: excessively high or low priced bids, past performance, references (including those found outside the bid), compliance with applicable laws-including tax laws, bidder's record of performance and integrity - e.g. has the bidder been delinquent or unfaithful to any contract with the City, whether the bidder is qualified legally to contract with the City, financial stability and the perceived ability to perform completely as specified. A bidder must at all times have financial resources sufficient, in the opinion of the City, to ensure performance of the contract and must provide proof upon request.

We will then evaluate the bids that have met the requirements above. i.23 COST JUSTIFICATION. In the event only one response is received, the City may require that the bidder submit a cost proposal in sufficient detail for the City to perform a cost/price analysis to determine if the bid price is fair and reasonable. i.24 CONTRACT NEGOTIATIONS AND ACCEPTANCE. Bidder must be prepared for the City to accept the bid as submitted.

Osceola Avenue Clearwater, FL 33755 File Number: ID#19-7282 Agenda Date: 1/16/2020 Status: Public HearingVersion: 1 File Type: Action ItemIn Control: Engineering Department Agenda Number: 8.1 SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION: Declare surplus certain real property located in Section 17, Township 29 South, Range 16 East (city-owned David Avenue property) for the purpose of exchanging the David Avenue property for certain property owned by Creative Contractors, Inc. at Drew Street and North Garden Ave.; approve the related Contract for Exchange of Real Property between Creative Contractors, Inc. and the City of Clearwater and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same, together with all other instruments necessary to affect closing. (APH) SUMMARY: The city-owned David Avenue Property is 5.68 acres of unimproved land that was acquired by the city on October 3, 1997 for $386,000.00. The site was purchased in order to replace a collapsing stormwater system on the property which was addressed after the purchase. A new stormwater pipe relining project is underway and will be completed prior to closing of the land exchange. The site consists of two contiguous parcels identified by the Pinellas County Property Appraiser as 17-29-16-00000-130-0900 and 17-29-16-34650-000-0340, which are legally described in Exhibit B of the contract. The property owned by Creative Contractors, Inc. is located at 618-620 Drew St., and is a 0.72-acre site containing a building with 8,176 square feet of office space, a parking lot, and unimproved land. The site is located at the northern perimeter of Downtown Clearwater in the strategic Old Bay Character District. The site consists of three contiguous parcels identified by the Property Appraiser as 09-29-15-44352-006-0030, 09-29-15-44352-006-0050, and 09-29-15-44352-006-0070, and which are legally described in Exhibit A of the contract. The exchange is contingent upon the following: declaration of the city property as surplus; City Council approval of certain vacating ordinances related to the David Avenue property as contemplated in the contract; the reservation of new easements as contemplated in the contract; certain wellhead restrictions as contemplated in the contract; and the City being granted adequate access to Creative Contractor’s property for purposes of conducting inspections and investigations, including environmental investigations. If any of the contingencies aren’t met, the contract will become null and void. An independent appraisal was performed by Tobias Realty Advisors, LLC on both sites in the proposed property exchange. The City’s David Avenue property’s fair market value was determined to be $655,000 as of December 22, 2018 and the Creative Contractor’s Drew Street Property was determined to have a $685,000 fair market value as of December 7, 2018. With the proposed land exchange, the City will receive a property with a higher appraised value which is located in the strategic downtown core. Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 1/13/2020 File Number: ID#19-7282 Per City Charter Section 2.01(d)(5)(iv), real property declared surplus may be exchanged for other real property having a comparable appraised value. The closing date in the property exchange contract between the City and Creative Contractors contemplates the closing will occur on or before October 1, 2020. City closing costs are not to exceed $6,000. The parties agree that after closing of the property exchange, Creative Contractors will leaseback from the City, the Drew Street property at the market lease rate determined to be $4,155.56 monthly. The term of the lease is for a period of 18 months and can be terminated with 60-days’ notice. The leaseback will allow Creative Contractors to remain in their Drew street office while their new office building is being constructed on the David Avenue property. APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: 4191365-530100 Funding is available in Stormwater Management 1365-530100, Professional Services for closing costs.

Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby: 1. Buyer and seller are typically motivated; 2. Both parties are well informed or well advised, and each acting in what they consider their own best interest; 3. A reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market; 4.

Clearwater is the county seat of Pinellas County and its second largest municipality (115,276); it is located in north central Pinellas and spans roughly two-thirds of the peninsula from Clearwater Beach eastward to McMullen- Booth Road approximately 0.6 miles east of the subject site; Downtown Clearwater, site of the courthouse and county government offices, is located 4.5 miles due west of the subject property via SR 60. According to the 2000 U.S. Census, the population of Clearwater was 108,332, making it the second largest community in Pinellas County behind St. Petersburg (247,894); as of 2010 Clearwater’s population had de- clined slightly to 107,957; as of 2018 the population has grown by 6.8% to 115,276. St. Petersburg is located at the south end of the county, approximately 12 miles south of the subject property. Clearwater is a sprawling com- munity bounded on the north by Palm Harbor and Dune- din and on the south by Largo; and on the east by Safety Harbor. U.S. Highway 19 is a six-lane, limited access highway; there is an elevated interchange with Gulf-to-Bay Boule- vard, 0.6 miles west of the subject. It is the primary north/south artery in Pinellas County and along much of Florida's west coast. According to the latest FDOT Traf- fic Count Map, approximately 109,500 cars utilize this roadway daily in Clearwater. Gulf-to-Bay Boulevard (SR 60) is a six-lane, east/west artery spanning the center portion of Clearwater; it lies ½ mile south of Drew Street and is the primary commercial artery linking US Highway 19 and the CBD; daily traffic count is 51,000 just east of US Highway 19 in the subject vicinity. TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 6 Drew Street (SR 590) is ½ mile north of the subject and acts as an alternative east/west artery linking US High- way 19 and McMullen Booth Road (CR 611) with the CBD; it carries 23,099 cars per day in the subject area. Belcher Road (CR 501) is 1.5 miles west of the subject; it is a 4-lane, north/south artery linking Clearwater with Largo and Seminole to the south as well as Dunedin and Palm Harbor to the north; traffic count is 20,918 north of Gulf-to Bay. McMullen Booth Road (CR 611) is 0.6 miles east of the subject where it links with the Bayside Bridge extending south to St. Petersburg-Clearwater Airport (PIE) and Ulmerton Road; latest traffic count is 63,000; this high- way acts as an alternative north/south artery to US High- way 19. The highway infrastructure described above provides av- erage to good access to most population centers through- out Pinellas County and the greater Tampa Bay area. Access is particularly good from Largo, Dunedin, and Safety Harbor to the east as well as the Clearwater CBD Core. The City of Clearwater embarked in early 2018 on the design phase of Imagine Clearwater, a beautification and revitalization project covering 66 acres in the Coachman Park area overlooking Clearwater Harbor. This will in- clude an expansion of the band shell to encourage larger entertainment opportunities in Downtown, thus driving greater demand for goods and services for Clearwater businesses. This project, which will follow the extensive infrastructure investments of recent years (Memorial Causeway Bridge, Town Lake drainage, Cleveland Street re-design, Capitol Theater rehab, and others) should pro- vide the impetus for additional Downtown housing simi- lar to what has been experienced in St. Petersburg and Tampa. The subject neighborhood (Bayview), which lies at the east perimeter of the city, is an area in transition. It had been characterized by the numerous mobile home parks TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 7 developed along Gulf-to-Bay in the 1950’s through the 1970’s; a number of these flank the subject on the east and north; the largest and best quality of these is Island in the Sun lying immediately north of the subject tract. Some of the mobile home parks lying south of Gulf-to- Bay (fronting Old Tampa Bay) have been redeveloped in the last few years as high quality, multi-family residential projects. There are also high quality rental apartments ¼ mile west of the subject in the Park Place mixed-use de- velopment in the northeast quadrant of Gulf-to-Bay and US Highway 19. Other similar properties dating from the 1980’s and 1990’s lie along Drew Street in the neighbor- hood. Because of the major highway interchange just west of the subject, we find some of the largest commercial prop- erties in the city; these include Clearwater Mall (1/4 mile southwest), Baycare Health headquarters facility (1/4 mile northeast), Park Place offices (1/4 mile west), and numerous auto dealerships and hotels along US Highway 19. There continues to be expansion of the retail and res- taurant sectors along the Gulf-to-Bay corridor in the sub- ject area. The original Hooters restaurant and a Pete & Shorty’s pub are just 0.1 miles southwest; the Hooters Management Company has a large headquarters facility just west of David Avenue. Located just south of the subject on the north side of Gulf-to-Bay are two automotive/retail properties, Tire Kingdom and Racetrac Petroleum (convenience/fuel). There are also new McDonalds and Taco Bell franchise stores in this area. David and Elizabeth Avenues are narrow local streets ex- tending north from Gulf-to-Bay roughly 1,000 feet termi- nating at the Island in the Sun Mobile Home Community. Single-family dwellings are found along these roads; some date from the 1960’s but there have been others built after 2000. Most are relatively modest 2 and 3- bedroom homes with attached garages. TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 8 Demographics of the subject’s primary market (1-mile radius) may be found on the chart on page 9; these are compared to City of Clearwater and Pinellas County: Median age (39.9) much younger than city and county Relatively dense population with much higher re- cent growth than city and county due to new apartment complexes Average household size (2.05) smaller than city and county Home ownership ratio roughly half of city and county levels Rental component 20+ points higher than city and county Household income 13 points below county and 7 points below city Median home value roughly half of city and coun- ty levels Shelter spending index 15 points below county and 13 points below city Other spending indexes in the 71% to 72% of na- tional levels The demographics of the subject area are clearly below average in terms of the broader market. However, the de- fined market area includes numerous apartment complex- es that house one or 2-person tenancies with relatively high rent levels. It is this demographic segment that would form the market for workforce housing in a devel- opment of the subject site. Assuming national economic prosperity continues, the Bayview neighborhood should continue to be a focus of commercial and residential expansion with older, lower quality and obsolete properties being replaced, a pattern that has been established in most of the major nodes in Pinellas County. 8148dem Demographic Analysis City of Clearwater Tract David Avenue Clearwater, FL 33759 Study Area 1-Mile Radius Clearwater Pinellas County Population 2000 11,879 108,332 921,482 Population 2010 10,079 107,957 916,542 Change -1,800 -375 -4,940 % Change -15.2% -0.3% -0.5% Population 2018 12,199 115,276 968,109 % Change (2010-2018) 21.0% 6.8% 5.6% Median Age 2010 37.0 43.8 46.2 Median Age 2018 39.9 46.0 48.9 Median Age 2023 41.6 47.0 50.0 Households 2000 5,187 48,274 414,968 Households 2010 4,728 47,814 415,876 Change -459 -460 908 % Change -8.8% -1.0% 0.2% Households 2018 5,363 50,254 433,534 % Change (2010-2018) 13.4% 5.1% 4.2% Avg Hshld Size 2000 2.16 2.17 2.17 Avg Hshld Size 2010 2.04 2.18 2.16 Avg Hshld Size 2018 2.05 2.22 2.19 Housing Units 2018 6,747 59,367 521,842 Owner-Occupied Hshlds 1,727 28,081 273,445 % Total Households 25.6% 47.3% 52.4% Renter-Occupied Hshlds 3,637 19,710 160,205 % Total Households 53.9% 33.2% 30.7% Median Household Income 2018 $43,044 $46,686 $49,730 As % of County Median 86.6% 93.9% 100.0% Median Home Value 2018 $97,146 $196,477 $192,639 As % of County Median 50.4% 102.0% 100.0% % White Collar Employment 54.6% 64.8% 65.1% % Services Employment 23.0% 18.3% 18.8% % Blue Collar Employment 22.4% 16.9% 16.1% Civilian Unemployment 2018 2.7% 3.8% 4.2% Apparel/Services Spending Index 70% 82% 85% Shelter Spending Index 72% 85% 87% Healthcare Spending Index 71% 85% 90% Restaurant Spending Index 72% 83% 87% Source: ESRI Market Profile 9 TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 10 Utilities/Services: Water: Clearwater Sewer: Clearwater Electric: Duke Energy Telephone: Frontier Communications Police: Clearwater Police Department Fire/EMS: Clearwater Fire & Rescue Public Transportation: PSTA (bus) Site Data: Physical Location: The subject property is located between David Av- enue and Elizabeth Avenue 225 feet north of Gulf to Bay Boulevard (SR 60). Data Sources: Survey of David Avenue Property; Cumbey & Fair, Inc.; August 12, 1997; Pinellas Property Ap- praiser’s maps and records; utility infrastructure aerial by City of Clearwater Land Area: 247,535 square feet or 5.68 acres MOL Configuration: Irregular, flag-shape Site Position: Interior Tract Dimensions: 200’ x 1,046’ (main section) + 100’ x 300’ (north- east section) Primary Frontage: 60 Feet MOL; David Avenue Secondary Frontage: 300 Feet MOL; Elizabeth Avenue extension Average Depth: 200 Feet MOL (east/west); 300 feet in north sec- tion Topography/Drainage: Level site at or above road grade; some poorly drained area in the east section (wetlands creek- bed) TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 11 Easements: 15-Foot utility and drainage easement along west lot line; 20-foot utility and drainage easement along north lot line; 10-foot drainage and utility easement along east lot line; 30-foot ROW ease- ment along path of Elizabeth Avenue extension in northeast corner of site; 15-foot ingress/egress easement along Elizabeth Avenue (by deed); Eliz- abeth Avenue appears to be a private ROW not regularly maintained by the City of Clearwater. Encroachments: None apparent Flood Designation: Zone X-Unshaded, area of minimal flood hazard; FEMA Map Panel 12103C 0128G; September 3, 2003 Access: Direct from Gulf-to-Bay Boulevard to David Ave- nue (60’ ROW) to Lot 34 at southwest section of subject tract; Elizabeth Avenue (private ROW) at east side of site would likely function as a second- ary point of access for emergency vehicles, etc. Conclusion: The site’s primary assets are its centralized loca- tion in the US Highway 19/Gulf-to-Bay node, level topography and non-flood hazard status per FEMA; site’s negative aspects are interior position, narrow/deep configuration, wetland area in east section; and city production well with 100-foot protected area in south section. TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 12 Improvement Data: Subject tract is primarily undeveloped land that would be considered an infill development site. Only improvements of note are municipal utility infrastructure such as the production well in the south section of the tract. Also, there are stormwater lines in the 15-foot easement area along the west lot line; at the north end of this easement is a catch basin. In addition, there is a 6-foot, chain-link, perimeter fence securing the well head. TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 13 Highest and Best Use: The subject property is an interior site just north of a ma- jor, east/west corridor in the Bayview section of Clearwa- ter. It has some favorable aspects that are balanced by some negative conditions. The positive factors include: 1- Location 225 feet north of Gulf to Bay Boulevard (SR 60), with traffic count of 51,000 daily 2- Centralized location in the US Highway 19/Gulf-to- Bay node near Clearwater Mall and Park Place 3- Primary access point via David Avenue to narrow neck at southwest corner of tract 4- All public utilities and services available 5- Zoning is US 19 with broad commercial and multi- family residential applications 6- Future Land Use Plan is US 19 Regional Center 7- Good highway infrastructure linking several commu- nities in Pinellas County 8- Supporting uses and employment opportunities in immediate area 9- Site is designated as minimal flood hazard 10- Generally level and slightly elevated land in majority of tract 11- Secondary point of access via Elizabeth Avenue (pri- vate easement) 12- Steady improvement in commercial market since 2012 with upward trend in rents and occupancy 13- Residential market in 6th year of steady recovery in Pinellas County 14- Better credit availability than 2009-2012 period 15- Steady improvement in employment in Pinellas County and Tampa Bay area The subject property also has some negative aspects that include: 1- Interior site position with limited paved road frontage 2- Irregular configuration and a narrow/deep shape 3- Older, lower quality homes predominant on David and Elizabeth Avenues 4- City production well and its 100-foot protective radi- us eliminates the southerly 0.9 acres MOL for devel- opment TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 14 5- Wetlands in the wooded creekbed in the tract’s east section eliminates the impacted area for development 6- Off-highway location effectively eliminates most of the commercial applications and ALF or congregate care uses Given the generally positive assessment of the subject property and its market, I have concluded highest and best use (vacant) to be multi-family residential develop- ment, most likely in the form of affordable townhouse or villa project. Many of these developments are now occur- ring on secondary, infill sites throughout Pinellas, which suffers an acute shortage of usable land. Also, in my opinion, the tract would be limited to a densi- ty of roughly 7 units per acre (40 units MOL) because of the narrow/deep shape and the protected areas (wellhead and wetlands). Considering the improved property (utility infrastruc- ture), I would conclude the same highest and best use as outlined above. Marketability: Subject property’s marketability is rated average at this time. This assessment is based on the economic factors enumerated in the highest and best use analysis and the input of local commercial brokers. Potential buyers are likely to be local developers seeking a site for affordable, “for sale” housing. Estimated Marketing Time: 12 months Estimated Exposure Time: 12 months TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 15 Valuation Process: Cost approach was excluded as there are no building improvements, only municipal utility infrastructure. Sales comparison approach is normally the only reliable method of valuing small land tracts in this market; this approach has been applied and the unit of measure is price paid per square foot of land area. Income capitalization approach was excluded as it is inapplicable for residential tracts in this market. TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 16 Sales Comparison Approach- The procedure involves estimation of land value (as though vacant) by the sales comparison approach, comparing subject site with similar sites which have recently sold. These compa- rable sales are reduced to a common denominator or unit of comparison, such as price per square foot or price per front foot. Adjustments are made to the sale properties for such fac- tors as changes in market conditions since date of sale, zoning, location, and physical charac- teristics, reducing dissimilarities and arriving at an estimate of value for the subject site. I have selected five, recent land sales from the Pinellas market as the best indicators of sub- ject’s land value. The comparable sales closed between February 2016 and September 2018. The local market has been trending upward over this period; therefore, the older sales were adjusted upward for market conditions. The sales reflected cash terms or conventional bank financing and therefore, there was no need for adjustments for favorable financing. The reader is referred to the Comparable Land Sales chart in this section, which summariz- es the comparative analysis on a price per square foot basis. Land Sale 1 is the purchase in June 2018 of a 2.03-acre, marginally developed property 4.6 miles northwest of the subject in Dunedin; the location was rated much superior to the sub- ject in terms of demographics and supporting uses; other downward adjustments were also necessary for smaller land size, superior physical factors, and other development obstacles (wellhead and wetlands); an upward adjustment was indicated for obsolete structures (requir- ing demolition); other categories produced neutral comparisons; Sale 1 indicated a unit value of $3.46 per square foot, which is 26.7% greater than the mean of the data ($2.73). Land Sale 2 is the purchase in February 2016 of a 5.02-acre, undeveloped property 4.0 miles northwest of the subject in Dunedin; first, upward adjustment was required for market im- provement since early 2016; the location was rated much superior to the subject in terms of demographics and supporting uses; other downward adjustments were also necessary for su- perior physical factors, higher density, and other development obstacles (wellhead and wet- lands); other categories produced neutral comparisons; Sale 2 indicated a unit value of $3.71 per square foot, which is 35.9% greater than the mean of the data ($2.73). Land Sale 3 is the purchase in July 2017 of a 1.73-acre, undeveloped property 3.5 miles southwest of the subject in Clearwater; first, upward adjustment was required for market im- provement since mid-2017; the location was rated superior to the subject in terms of de- mographics and supporting uses; other downward adjustments were also necessary for smaller land size, superior physical factors, higher density, and other development obstacles (wellhead and wetlands); the development obstacles adjustment was partially offset by the buyer’s responsibility of securing a zoning change; other categories produced neutral com- parisons; Sale 3 indicated a unit value of $2.22 per square foot, which is 18.7% less than the mean of the data ($2.73). TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 17 Land Sale 4 is the purchase in September 2018 of a 6.19-acre, undeveloped property 5.7 miles southwest of the subject in Seminole; the location was rated superior to the subject in terms of demographics and supporting uses; other downward adjustments were also neces- sary for superior physical factors and other development obstacles (wellhead and wetlands); an upward adjustment was indicated for its lower density; other categories produced neutral comparisons; Sale 4 indicated a unit value of $2.32 per square foot, which is 15.0% less than the mean of the data ($2.73). Land Sale 5 is the purchase in November 2016 of a 4.88-acre, undeveloped property 5.7 miles southwest of the subject in Seminole (adjacent east of Sale 4); the location was rated superior to the subject in terms of demographics and supporting uses; other downward ad- justments were also necessary for superior physical factors and other development obstacles (wellhead and wetlands); an upward adjustment was indicated for its lower density; other categories produced neutral comparisons; Sale 5 indicated a unit value of $1.92 per square foot, which is 30.0% less than the mean of the data ($2.73). The adjusted unit values of the five comparables range from $1.92 (Sale 5) to $3.71 (Sale 2), resulting in a broad variance of 93%. The adjusted mean price was $2.73 per square foot and the median was $2.32. I have assigned statistical weights to the sales based upon their overall degree of comparabil- ity. Sales 4 and 5 clearly emerge as the most relevant indicators of value for the subject site as they required fewer and smaller adjustments than the other sales. The weighted mean of the data was slightly less than the natural mean. Therefore, based upon my analysis of the five comparable sales, I have selected a unit value of $2.65 per square foot for the subject site: 247,535 sq. ft. @ $2.65 = $655,968 Rounded, $655,000 8148LS Comparable Land Sales Sale Number Subject 1 2 3 4 5LocationBetween David & Elizabeth Avenues; 225 feet N of Gulf-to-Bay BlvdS/S San Christopher Dr, 0.1 Mi W of CR 1; 0.1 Mi N of SR 5801060 Scottsdale St; N/S Scottsdale St; 0.1 Mi E of Patricia AvW/S Highland Av; 0.1 Mi N of Belleair Rd9100 82nd Av; S/S 82nd Av 0.1 Mi W of Starkey RdS/S 82nd Av; 272' W of Starkey Rd; adjacent East of Sale 4Clearwater Dunedin Dunedin Clearwater Seminole SeminoleDate Dec-18 Jun-18 Feb-16 Jul-17 Sep-18 Nov-16OR Book/Page N/A 20089/700 19074/657 19692/824 20202/240 19414/1182GRANTOR N/A Karen A Sullivan, Tr Dunedin Commons, LLC Park and Eleazer, LLC Tracy Hatfield-Schmorr etal Paul D MasonGRANTEE N/A Gulfwind Contracting, LLC Beazer Homes Corp Odin Enterprises, Inc KB Home Tampa, LLC Gulfwind Contracting, LLCParcel Number17-29-16-00000-130-0900 26-28-15-94078-000-0090 35-28-15-00000-310-0100 23-29-15-79254-002-0010 etal 26-30-15-70740-100-1901 26-30-15-69185-000-0010 etalPrice N/A $712,000 $1,400,000 $275,000 $803,000 $475,000Gross Land Area (SF) 247,535 88,500 218,671 75,510 269,632 212,480Price Per Sq Ft N/A $8.05 $6.40 $3.64 $2.98 $2.24Gross Land Area (AC) 5.68 2.03 5.02 1.73 6.19 4.88Zoning US 19 PRD PR-MU O and LMDR; now MDR RLM RLMImprovements at Time of SaleWellhead & utilitiesOlder SF dwlg; razed NoneNoneNone NoneProbable/Approved Density 7.0 5.9 11.2 14.4 4.8 4.9Probable/Approved No of Units 40 12 56 25 30 24Price Per Unit N/A $59,333 $25,000 $11,000 $26,767 $19,792Highest/Best Use Townhouse or villa complex Townhouse or villa complex Townhouse complex Townhouse complex Residential Subdivision Townhouse or villa complexTract Shape Flag-shaped Square Rectangle; slight irregular L-Shaped L-Shaped RectangleCommentsTract lies 225' N of SR 60 just NE of Mall; negatives include narrow shape, city wellhead, limited access, and wetlandsTract located bewteen Post Office and senior villa community; being developed as 12-lot Villas at San Christopher with single culdesacTract is east section of Dunedin Commons, a planned redevelopment of former AC Nielsen headquarters; no negative aspectsTract is directly opposite a Publix-anchorednbhd retail center; Office zoning prevented development in pastTract is located in an area experiencing considerable in-fill development of homes and villas by major buildersTract developed as Pinecrest Villas; sold out in roughly 8 months at mean price of $295,000 (1,528 or 1,701 SF)Utilities All Available All Available All Available All Available All Available All AvailableFinancing N/A CenterState BankCash SaleCash SaleCash SaleCenterState BankConfirming Source N/A Michael Willenbacher (Buyer) Gerald Cyr (Buyer) Andrew Park (Seller) Chris Bowers (Broker) Michael Willenbacher (Buyer)Prior Sales (3 yrs)None None Parent tract purchase; Dec 2015; $5,300,000 Dec 2015; $140,000None NoneADJUSTMENTSFinancing$0 $0 $0 $0 $0Cash Price Per Sq Ft $8.05 $6.40 $3.64 $2.98 $2.24Market Conditions0% 15% 5% 0% 15%Location-15% -15% -7% -5% -5%Land Size-10% 0% -10% 0% 0%Physical Factors-15% -10% -7% -5% -7%Density0% -12% -15% 3% 3%Osolete Structures3% 0% 0% 0% 0%Other Development Obstacles -20% -20% -5% -15% -20%Total Adjustment-57% -42% -39% -22% -14%Adjusted Price/Sq Ft$3.46 $3.71 $2.22 $2.32 $1.92 18 SALE #1: S/S SAN CHRISTOPHER DRIVE, DUNEDIN SALE #2: 1060 SCOTSDALE STREET, DUNEDIN SALE #3: W/S HIGHLAND AVENUE, CLEARWATER SALE #4: 9100 82ND AVENUE, SEMINOLE SALE #5: S/S 82ND AVENUE WEST OF STARKEY ROAD, SEMINOLE DeLorme Street Atlas USA® 2013 LAND SALES MAP Data use subject to license. © DeLorme.

The site has some good macro-locational aspects (US 19/Gulf-to-Bay node) and some micro-locational negatives (mobile home parks and lower quality dwellings). It is also bur- dened with a below average configuration, a wetlands component, and municipal well (with protective zone) that taken together, reduce the utility and desirability of the tract. Nonethe- less, with the acute shortage of usable land in Pinellas County I concluded highest and best use to be townhouse or attached villa development. The cost approach was excluded as there are no building improvements, only municipal utili- ty infrastructure. The income capitalization approach was also excluded as it is inapplicable for residential tracts in this market. The sales comparison approach is normally a highly reliable method of valuing residential land in this market; this approach has been applied and the unit of measure is price paid per square foot of land area. Sufficient recent (2016 through 2018) comparable data was availa- ble for analysis and was adjusted for all relevant differences. The five sales were drawn from the central and north Pinellas sub-markets and represent sites with similar proposed uses. Therefore, the conclusion of market value at $2.65 per square foot, $655,000, is judged to be well supported and credible.

Client: Robert Brzak, Real Estate Services Coordinator City of Clearwater 100 S. Myrtle Avenue Clearwater, FL 33756 Client Type: Municipality Appraiser: C. Richard Tobias, MAI State Certified General Appraiser, RZ705 Purpose of the Appraisal: To provide the client with an opinion of market value “as is” as defined by the Interagency Ap- praisal and Evaluation Guidelines. USPAP Competency: The appraiser has 38 years of experience in commercial properties of subject’s type in Pinel- las County, Florida. Market Value is “The most probable price which a property should bring in a competitive and open market un- der all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller, each acting prudently, knowledgeably, and assum- ing the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby: 1. Buyer and seller are typically motivated; 2. Both parties are well informed or well advised, and each acting in what they consider their own best interest; 3. A reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market; 4. Payment is made in terms of cash in U.S. dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereto; and, the price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by any- one associated with the sale.” 1 1 Interagency Appraisal and Evaluation Guidelines, Department of the Treasury; December 2010. TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 3 Intended Use Of Report: Assist client in possible acquisition of subject property in a swap transaction Intended User: City of Clearwater Interest Valued: Fee simple Property Owner: Creative Contractors, Inc. and Alan C. and Nan- cy S. Bomstein 3-Year Sales History: Subject property has been owner-occupied by Creative Contractors, Inc. for several decades as the corporate headquarters. The subject property has not been listed for sale or been under contract during the last three years. Date of Inspection: December 7, 2018 Effective Date of Value: December 7, 2018 Scope of Work: Inspection of the subject property (interior and exterior); Analysis of regional and neighborhood data with emphasis upon the market for small of- fice properties in Downtown Clearwater; Description of property and improvements; Analysis of zoning, utilities, services, prop- erty taxes, site, and improvements; Highest and best use analysis; as vacant and as improved; Cost approach to value was excluded due to the age (61 years) of the building and the difficulty in accurately measuring deprecia- tion; also, this methodology carries much less credibility in the market for properties of this type, size, and age; Sales comparison approach utilizing recent comparable sales of office properties in the Clearwater market; adjustments were made to the comparable sales where they material- ly differed from the subject property; com- parables were analyzed on basis of price per TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 4 square foot of building area; comparables were ranked based on their overall compara- bility; results of this analysis identified the market value of this property “as is” in fee simple interest; Income capitalization approach was applied as a secondary method; however, market analysis indicated a low level of investor representation in properties of subject’s type, size, age, etc. in this location; compa- rable rental properties were analyzed and an income/expense proforma was constructed; this resulted in an expectation of net operat- ing income, which was capitalized at a mar- ket-based cap rate to an indication of market value from an investment perspective; Reconciliation of the methodologies and da- ta to provide conclusion of market value “as is” in fee simple interest.

Garden Avenue and adjacent west of the Pinellas Trail; site is also located at the north perimeter of Downtown Clearwater in the Old Bay Character District. Clearwater is the county seat of Pinellas County and its second largest municipality (115,276); it is located in north central Pinellas and spans roughly two-thirds of the peninsula from Clearwater Beach eastward to McMullen- Booth Road; the city’s northerly limits are at Union Street approximately 1.9 miles north of the subject site; Down- town Clearwater, site of the courthouse and county gov- ernment offices, is situated just south of the subject property. According to the 2000 U.S. Census, the population of Clearwater was 108,332, making it the second largest community in Pinellas County behind St. Petersburg (247,894); as of 2010 Clearwater’s population had de- clined slightly to 107,957; as of 2018 the population has grown by 6.8% to 115,276. St. Petersburg is located at the south end of the county, approximately 12 miles south of the subject property; Downtown Clearwater (Core Ar- ea), site of the Pinellas County Courthouse and govern- ment center, is immediately south of the subject. Clearwater is a sprawling community bounded on the north by Palm Harbor and Dunedin and on the south by Largo; it extends across the Pinellas peninsula from Clearwater Beach eastward approximately 7 miles to Old Tampa Bay. U.S. Highway 19 is a six-lane, limited access highway; there is an elevated interchange with Gulf-to-Bay Boule- vard, 4.0 miles east of the subject. It is the primary north/south artery in Pinellas County and along much of Florida's west coast. According to the latest FDOT Traf- fic Count Map, approximately 109,500 cars utilize this roadway daily in Clearwater. Gulf-to-Bay Boulevard (SR 60) is a six-lane, east/west artery spanning the center portion of Clearwater; it lies ½ mile south of Drew Street and is the primary commercial TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 7 artery linking US Highway 19 and the CBD; daily traffic count is 52,500 just east of the intersection of Court Street and Highland Avenue; volume drops significantly to 5,000 in the northwest leg of Gulf-to-Bay, which links with Cleveland Street. Cleveland Street lies 0.2 miles south of the subject and provides linkage with the CBD; it extends 1.2 miles west, where it terminates at Coachman Park; Cleveland had formerly been the approach to Clearwater Causeway, which links the CBD with Clearwater Beach; following the construction of the new, elevated span the beach traf- fic is routed west on Court Street through the CBD. Court Street (SR 60) lies 0.4 miles south of the subject and provides linkage with the CBD; it extends from the Highland Avenue intersection west through the CBD to Clearwater’s Memorial Causeway (to Clearwater Beach); following the construction of the new span the beach traf- fic is now routed west on Court Street through the CBD, where the daily traffic count is 17,000. Drew Street (SR 590) is adjacent south of the subject and acts as an alternative east/west artery linking US Highway 19 with the CBD; it carries 13,100 cars per day in the subject area. Keene Road (CR 1) is 2.1 miles east of the subject; it is a 4-lane, north/south artery linking Clearwater with Largo and Seminole to the south as well as Dunedin and Palm Harbor to the north; traffic count is 27,359 south of Gulf- to Bay. North Ft. Harrison Avenue is 0.1 miles west of the sub- ject; it is a 2-lane, north/south roadway linking the Down- town Core Area with Old Bay District; at the Dunedin city limits it becomes Edgewater Drive; traffic count is 9,800 in Old Bay; South Ft. Harrison extends south from the Core Area accessing Morton Plant Hospital (1.0 miles south of subject) and the area known as South Gateway. The highway infrastructure described above provides av- erage to good access to most population centers through- TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 8 out Pinellas County and the greater Tampa Bay area. Ac- cess is particularly good from Largo, Dunedin, and Safety Harbor to the east as well as the Clearwater CBD Core. Morton Plant Hospital is a primary traffic generator for the CBD. It is the 5th largest medical center in the Tampa Bay area with 687 beds and 546 affiliated physicians; Morton Plant is also a major employer in the county with 2,200 employees. Similar to most major hospitals in the area it has attracted extensive satellite development of medical offices, clinics, outpatient centers, and other healthcare relate uses. Some ancillary office development has extended east of the Core Area but the bulk of this ac- tivity lies south of the CBD. As the county seat, downtown Clearwater is home to many Pinellas County government and agency offices that employ several thousand persons. The county court- house and government complex, which are located west of South Ft. Harrison between Court and Chestnut Streets, has steadily expanded over the last 20 years to the surrounding blocks. The City of Clearwater had housed its numerous employees and departments in several loca- tions throughout the downtown district. Another major factor that has influenced downtown Clearwater for the past two decades is the Church of Sci- entology (COS). This controversial religious sect has its international headquarters located in the Ft. Harrison Ho- tel, just north of the county courthouse. A substantial ad- ministrative staff is located at this facility on a permanent basis, and thousands of church members regularly visit Clearwater for extended periods of training and study. Over the years the COS has steadily expanded its proper- ty holdings throughout the Downtown Core area and northward into Old Bay. The church's headquarters has generated an enormous economic impact in terms of housing, retail sales and services in the downtown area. Several high-rise condominiums were built in downtown Clearwater during the recent development boom (2004 through 2006); most of these projects experienced stalled sellouts as the market collapsed in mid-2006, followed by TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 9 the credit crisis and national recession. A modest recov- ery commenced in 2013 with a resumption of condomini- um sales in Downtown. Also, a 257-unit, high-end, rental community (The Nolen) was developed in 2016/2017 in the Prospect Lake area east of Downtown. Other smaller multi-family projects have also had reasonable success in the recovery period in Downtown. The City of Clearwater embarked in early 2018 on the design phase of Imagine Clearwater, a beautification and revitalization project covering 66 acres in the Coachman Park area overlooking Clearwater Harbor. This will in- clude an expansion of the band shell to encourage larger entertainment opportunities in Downtown, thus driving greater demand for goods and services for Clearwater businesses. This project, which will follow the extensive infrastructure investments of recent years (Memorial Causeway Bridge, Town Lake drainage, Cleveland Street re-design, Capitol Theater rehab, and others) should pro- vide the impetus for additional Downtown housing simi- lar to what has been experienced in St. Petersburg and Tampa. The subject neighborhood (Old Bay), which lies at the northwest perimeter of the CBD, is an area in transition. It contains some of the oldest structures in the city, such as North Ward School (now closed) dating back to 1910. There are large, old, stately homes in Old Bay and many of these have been purchased and restored in the last 5 to 10 years. There has been some multi-family development such as the waterfront condominium a few blocks north- west of the subject and the more recent Garden Trail Apartments complex a few blocks north; the latter is a 76-unit, 3-story, workforce housing development adjacent to the Pinellas Trail. Closer to the subject we find older industrial properties such as lumber yards, warehouses, and service buildings transitioning to general and professional office uses. A chiropractic office, for example, lies adjacent west of the subject and a good quality law office (see Improved Sale 3) is situated at the northwest corner of Drew and N. Garden Avenue. Also, the blocks just south of Drew TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 10 Street in the subject vicinity have recently experienced a spike in assemblage purchases by COS affiliates and oth- er investors. The parcels south of Drew fall in the Down- town Core Character District and qualify for more intensive development in terms of FAR, residential densi- ty, and building height. The Old Bay District (subject property and those north of Drew) is a transition area to lower density residential lying farther north; as such, the maximum development intensity limits are lower than the Core District. Demographics of the subject’s primary market (10- minute drive) may be found on the chart on page 12; these are compared to City of Clearwater and Pinellas County: Median age slightly younger than city and county Relatively dense population with recent growth similar to city and county Average household size (2.29) larger than city and county Home ownership ratio 3 points below city and 8 points below county Rental component 5 to 8 points higher than city and county Household income 16 points below county and 10 points below city Median home value 7 points below county and 9 points below city Shelter spending index 12 points below county and 10 points below city Restaurant spending 13 points below county and 9 points below city The demographics of the subject area are clearly below average in terms of the broader market. However, the de- fined market area includes some of the lowest income sections of the city, which have skewed the composite figures downward. In this case there is a substantial com- ponent of higher income households found in the newer condominiums and apartments in Downtown and along the Clearwater Harbor waterfront north and south of the TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 11 Core. It is this demographic segment that would form the market for upscale housing in a redevelopment of the subject site and nearby parcels. Assuming national economic prosperity continues, Downtown Clearwater appears poised to finally achieve the growth and revitalization many of the urban centers in Florida have experienced in the last 5+ years. The Old Bay District will likely see new, high-end, waterfront condominium development in the next few years and the central and east sections should experience moderate- priced condominium and rental apartment development similar to the Nolen project in the Town Lake area east of the Core District. This will result in some block consoli- dation and assemblage with upward trending land prices where older obsolete structures are absorbed and razed. 8147dem Demographic Analysis Creative Contractors, Inc 620 Drew Street Clearwater, FL 33755 Study Area 10-Minute Drive Clearwater Pinellas County Population 2000 88,740 108,332 921,482 Population 2010 90,673 107,957 916,542 Change 1,933 -375 -4,940 % Change 2.2% -0.3% -0.5% Population 2018 96,124 115,276 968,109 % Change (2010-2018) 6.0% 6.8% 5.6% Median Age 2010 42.8 43.8 46.2 Median Age 2018 44.6 46.0 48.9 Median Age 2023 44.9 47.0 50.0 Households 2000 39,159 48,274 414,968 Households 2010 39,050 47,814 415,876 Change -109 -460 908 % Change -0.3% -1.0% 0.2% Households 2018 40,624 50,254 433,534 % Change (2010-2018) 4.0% 5.1% 4.2% Avg Hshld Size 2000 2.18 2.17 2.17 Avg Hshld Size 2010 2.24 2.18 2.16 Avg Hshld Size 2018 2.29 2.22 2.19 Housing Units 2018 48,997 59,367 521,842 Owner-Occupied Hshlds 21,657 28,081 273,445 % Total Households 44.2% 47.3% 52.4% Renter-Occupied Hshlds 18,962 19,710 160,205 % Total Households 38.7% 33.2% 30.7% Median Household Income 2018 $41,845 $46,686 $49,730 As % of County Median 84.1% 93.9% 100.0% Median Home Value 2018 $179,808 $196,477 $192,639 As % of County Median 93.3% 102.0% 100.0% % White Collar Employment 62.2% 64.8% 65.1% % Services Employment 20.5% 18.3% 18.8% % Blue Collar Employment 17.3% 16.9% 16.1% Civilian Unemployment 2018 4.4% 3.8% 4.2% Apparel/Services Spending Index 73% 82% 85% Shelter Spending Index 75% 85% 87% Healthcare Spending Index 75% 85% 90% Restaurant Spending Index 74% 83% 87% Source: ESRI Market Profile 12 TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 13 Utilities/Services: Water: Clearwater Sewer: Clearwater Electric: Duke Energy Telephone: Frontier Communications Police: Clearwater Police Department Fire/EMS: Clearwater Fire & Rescue Public Transportation: PSTA (bus) Site Data: Physical Location: The subject property is located on the north side of Drew Street (SR 590) 105 feet east of N.

Palms, planters, paver walks, and attractive land- scaping at storefront area. TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 17 Highest and Best Use: The subject property is an interior site on a secondary, east/west corridor in the north section of Clearwater. It has some favorable aspects that are balanced by some negative conditions. The positive factors include: 1- Location on 4-lane artery, Drew Street (SR 590), with traffic count of 13,100 daily 2- Secondary access point at north via local street 3- Good visibility and access 4- Pinellas Trail adjacent east of site 5- All public utilities and services available 6- Zoning is D, Downtown District located in Old Bay Character District 7- Future Land Use Plan is CBD, Central Business Dis- trict 8- Good highway infrastructure linking several commu- nities in Pinellas County 9- Complimentary uses in immediate area such as pro- fessional offices and major CBD properties 2 blocks south 10- Site is designated as minimal flood hazard 11- Immediate proximity to Downtown Clearwater 12- Close proximity to Coachman Park in Downtown Core and the approved expansion of waterfront park land in the Imagine Clearwater program 13- Steady improvement in commercial market since 2012 with upward trend in rents and occupancy 14- Residential market in 6th year of steady recovery in Pinellas County 15- Better credit availability than 2009-2012 period 16- Steady improvement in employment in Pinellas County and Tampa Bay area The subject property also has some negative aspects that include: 1- Interior site position 2- Irregular configuration but generally rectangular 3- Older, obsolete industrial and service buildings domi- nate immediate vicinity 4- Subject’s maximum density is 35 units per acre ver- sus 75 in Core District adjacent south TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 18 5- Subject’s maximum FAR is 0.50 versus 1.50 and 2.50 in other sections of Old Bay and Core District 6- Subject’s maximum building height is 45 feet versus 55 and 75 feet in other sections of Old Bay and Core District Given the mostly positive assessment of the subject prop- erty and its market, I have concluded highest and best use (vacant) to be future multi-family residential develop- ment either as a stand-alone site or as part of a block as- semblage. Considering the improved property, the same positive and negative factors noted earlier impact the selection of highest and best use; the structure is B- quality, CMU construction with effective age of 30 years; it has been regularly maintained and upgraded and is in above aver- age condition with some minimal deferred maintenance. The building’s design is best suited to general office uses, which are well represented in this immediate area. The contributory value of the existing structure is suffi- cient to justify retention for the near term in spite of the structure’s age and low FAR (0.26); I would conclude highest and best use, as improved, to be continuation of the existing use as office for a period of 5 to 10 years MOL with eventual redevelopment as multi-family resi- dential as noted in the “as vacant” analysis. Marketability: Subject property’s marketability is rated above average at this time. This assessment is based on the economic fac- tors enumerated in the highest and best use analysis and the input of local commercial brokers. Potential buyers are likely to be owner users, with secondary investor ap- peal. Estimated Marketing Time: 12 months Estimated Exposure Time: 12 months TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 19 Valuation Process: Cost approach was excluded due to the age (61 years) of the building and the difficulty in accurately measuring depreciation; also, this methodology carries much less credibility in the market for properties of this type, size, and age. Land valuation (by sales comparison) was undertaken as a majority of the property’s value is contributed by the land; also, eventual highest and best use (5 to 10 years) was judged to be redevelopment. Sales comparison approach is normally the most reliable method of valuing small office properties in this market; this approach has been applied and the unit of measure is price paid per square foot of building area. Income capitalization approach was applied as a secondary methodology recognizing its limitations in terms of the limited remaining economic life of the building. TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 20 Land Valuation- The procedure involves estimation of land value (as though vacant) by the sales comparison approach, comparing subject site with similar sites which have recently sold. These compa- rable sales are reduced to a common denominator or unit of comparison, such as price per square foot or price per front foot. Adjustments are made to the sale properties for such fac- tors as changes in market conditions since date of sale, zoning, location, and physical charac- teristics, reducing dissimilarities and arriving at an estimate of value for the subject site. I have selected five, recent land sales from the Clearwater market as the best indicators of subject’s land value. The comparable sales closed between September 2017 and December 2018. The local market has been trending upward over this period; therefore, the 2017 sale was adjusted upward for market conditions. The sales reflected cash terms or conventional bank financing and therefore, there was no need for adjustments for favorable financing. The reader is referred to the Comparable Land Sales chart in this section, which summariz- es the comparative analysis on a price per square foot basis. Land Sale 1 is the purchase in May 2018 of a 0.84-acre, undeveloped property 0.4 miles north of the subject; the location was rated much superior to the subject in terms of view amenity; a downward adjustment was also necessary for allowable building height (55 feet) and FAR (1.50); other categories produced neutral comparisons; Sale 1 indicated a unit value of $14.54 per square foot, which is 4.1% greater than the mean of the data ($13.97). Land Sale 2 is the purchase in May 2018 of a 1.15-acre, undeveloped property 0.4 miles north of the subject; the location was rated much superior to the subject in terms of view amenity; downward adjustments were also necessary for allowable building height (55 feet) and FAR (1.50) and physical factors (shape); other categories produced neutral comparisons; Sale 2 indicated a unit value of $14.22 per square foot, which is 1.8% greater than the mean of the data ($13.97). Land Sale 3 is the assemblage purchase in December 2018 of a 2.07-acre, under-developed property 0.2 miles north of the subject; the location was rated much inferior to the subject in terms of CBD proximity and supporting uses; a downward adjustment was necessary for al- lowable building height (55 feet) and FAR (1.5 and 0.5); other categories produced neutral comparisons; Sale 3 indicated a unit value of $11.80 per square foot, which is 15.5% less than the mean of the data ($13.97). Land Sale 4 is the purchase in September 2017 of a 0.67-acre, undeveloped property 0.4 miles southeast of the subject; upward adjustment was made to account for improvement in the market since 2017; the location was rated equal to the subject with some offsetting ad- vantages and disadvantages; downward adjustments were necessary for allowable density (75), building height (75 feet) , FAR (2.50) and physical factors (shape); other categories TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 21 produced neutral comparisons; Sale 4 indicated a unit value of $13.48 per square foot, which is 3.5% less than the mean of the data ($13.97). Land Sale 5 is the purchase in November 2018 of a 2.04-acre, marginally property 0.4 miles southeast of the subject; the location was rated equal to the subject with some offsetting ad- vantages and disadvantages; downward adjustments were necessary for allowable density (75), building height (75 feet) , and FAR (2.50); upward adjustment was applied for physical factors (non-contiguous parcels); other categories produced neutral comparisons; Sale 5 indi- cated a unit value of $15.80 per square foot, which is 13.1% greater than the mean of the data ($13.97). The adjusted unit values of the five comparables range from $11.80 (Sale 3) to $15.80 (Sale 5), resulting in a reasonable variance of 34%. The adjusted mean price was $13.99 per square foot and the median was $14.22. I have assigned statistical weights to the sales based upon their overall degree of comparabil- ity. Sales 4 and 5 clearly emerge as the most relevant indicators of value for the subject site as they required fewer and smaller adjustments than the other sales. The weighted mean of the data was slightly greater than the natural mean. Therefore, based upon my analysis of the five comparable sales, I have selected a unit value of $14.15 per square foot for the subject site: 31,386 sq. ft. @ $14.15 = $444,112 Rounded, $445,000 8139LS Comparable Land Sales Sale Number Subject 1 2 3 4 5Location620 Drew St SW Cor N Ft Harrison Av & Nicholson St NW Cor N Ft Harrison Av & Seminole St601 N Ft Harrison Av W/S of S Prospect Av 801 Park St etalClearwaterClearwater Clearwater Clearwater Clearwater ClearwaterDate Jan-19 May-18 May-18 12/18/2018 & Jan 2019 Sep-17 Nov-18OR Book/Page N/A 20044/247 20074/501 20371/1170 etal 19793/1435 20353/1360 etalGRANTOR N/A Cleawater Bay Marina, LLC SCI Funeral Services of FL, LLC Stephen J Steller etal Hearst Communications Warren Ltd etalGRANTEE N/A 804 Holdings, LLC 802 Holdings, LLC Clearwater Corridor, LLC Zano Team 2, LLC Zano Team 5, LLCParcel Number09-29-15-44352-006-0030 09-29-15-09252-000-0010 09-29-15-09252-000-0040 etal 09-29-15-08622-000-0210 etal 15-29-15-00108-009-0010 15-29-15-88974-000-0010 etalPrice N/A $884,000 $1,250,000 $1,015,000 $440,000 $1,650,000Gross Land Area (SF) 31,386 36,490 50,121 90,316 29,370 88,766Price Per Sq Ft N/A $24.23 $24.94 $11.24 $14.98 $18.59Gross Land Area (AC) 0.72 0.84 1.15 2.07 0.67 2.04Zoning D, Downtown D, Downtown D, Downtown D, Downtown D, Downtown D, DowntownImprovements at Time of Sale8,136 SF Office (1957)None Small commercial structure (1925)Misc obsolete sructuresNone Several obsolete structuresMax Density (Units /Ac) 35.0 35.0 35.0 35.0 75.0 75.0Max No of Units 25 29 40 73 51 153Price Per Unit N/A $30,151 $31,039 $13,987 $8,701 $10,796Maximum FAR 0.50 1.50 1.50 1.5 and 0.5 2.50 2.50Maximum Resid Density 35 35 35 35 75 75Maximum Bldg Height 45 55 55 55 75 75Highest/Best Use Mid-Rise Multi-Family Mid-Rise Multi-Family Mid-Rise Multi-Family Mid-Rise Multi-Family Mid-Rise Multi-Family Mid-Rise Multi-FamilyTract Shape Irregular Irregular Rectangle Rectangle Irregular Rectangle Rectangle IrregularOtherSite at north edge of CBD Core adjacent westof Pinellas Trail; frontage on 2 streetsExcellent view amenity of Clearwater Basin Marina; frontage on 3 streetsGood view amenity of marina and Clearwater Harbor; main parcel comprises 75% of siteLarge site on E/S of Ft Harrison south of Eldridge St; 2 parcel assemblageClose in CBD parcel was former Clearwater Sun siteHalf-block site acquired as part of assemblage in east CBDUtilities All Available All Available All Available All Available All Available All AvailableFinancing N/ACash Sale Cash Sale$120,000 PMM; short termCash Sale Cash SaleConfirming Source N/A Brian Andrus (Broker) Jeannette Jason (Broker) Public Record Amy Barrett (Broker) Pat Marzulli (Broker)Prior Sales (3 yrs)None None None NoneNone NonePrice Per Sq FtADJUSTMENTSFinancing$0 $0 $0 $0 $0Cash Price Per Sq Ft $24.23 $24.94 $11.24 $14.98 $18.59Market Conditions0% 0% 0% 15% 0%Location-25% -25% 15% 0% 0%Land Size0% 0% 0% 0% 0%Physical Factors0% -3% 0% -5% 5%Max Density, Height, FAR -15% -15% -10% -20% -20%Other0% 0% 0% 0% 0%Total Adjustment-40% -43% 5% -10% -15%Adjusted Price/Sq Ft $14.54 $14.22 $11.80 $13.48 $15.80 22 DeLorme Street Atlas USA® 2013 LAND SALES MAP Data use subject to license. © DeLorme.

The market has been more active over the last 36 months and the quantity of comparable data was adequate. The market has trended gradually upward over the last 3 years and the older sales were ad- justed upward for market conditions. The reader is referred to the Chart (Comparable Sales) in this section, which summarizes the comparative analysis on a price per square foot basis. Sale 1 is the acquisition (November 2016) of a 2-story, office property on N. Garden Avenue just one block southwest of the subject; upward adjustment was necessary to account for ap- preciation in the market since late 2016; downward adjustments were indicated for the prime Core location with high underlying land value, corner site position, building quality, func- tional aspects, and more liberal development limits; upward adjustments were applied for the larger size of the building (on a unit price basis), inferior parking, and lack of surplus land; Sale 1 was rated equivalent in the other aspects; after adjustment, Sale 1 indicated a unit val- ue of $73.10 per square foot, which is 11.0% below the mean of the data ($82.16). Sale 2 is the acquisition (January 2019) of a 1-story, office property on N. Garden Avenue just 150 feet southwest of the subject; downward adjustments were indicated for the prime Core location with high underlying land value, corner site position, functional aspects, and more liberal development limits; downward adjustment was also applied for “other” as this sale is part of an assemblage by an abutting property owner; upward adjustments were ap- plied for inferior parking, and lack of surplus land; Sale 2 was rated equivalent in the other aspects; after adjustment, Sale 2 indicated a unit value of $94.35 per square foot, which is 14.8% above the mean of the data ($82.16). Sale 3 is the acquisition (July 2017) of a 1-story, office property on N. Garden Avenue just 150 feet west of the subject; upward adjustment was necessary to account for appreciation in the market since 2017; downward adjustments were indicated for the corner site position, building quality, age/condition, and functional aspects; downward adjustment was also ap- plied for “other” as this sale involved a partial sale/leaseback of roughly half the building by the seller; Sale 3 was rated equivalent in the other aspects; after adjustment, Sale 3 indicated a unit value of $78.86 per square foot, which is 4.0% below the mean of the data ($82.16). Sale 4 is the acquisition (October 2018) of a 2-story, office property on Court Street 0.4 miles south of the subject in the Core District; downward adjustments were indicated for the prime Core location with high underlying land value, building quality, functional aspects, age/condition, and more liberal development limits; upward adjustments were applied for the inferior parking and lack of surplus land; Sale 4 was rated equivalent in the other aspects; TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 24 after adjustment, Sale 4 indicated a unit value of $78.67 per square foot, which is 4.2% below the mean of the data ($82.16). Sale 5 is the acquisition (November 2017) of a 1 and 2-story, office property on Chestnut Street 0.4 miles south of the subject in the Core District; upward adjustment was necessary to account for appreciation in the market since 2017; downward adjustments were indicated for the prime Core location with high underlying land value, building quality, functional aspects, age/condition, and more liberal development limits; Sale 5 was rated equivalent in the other aspects; after adjustment, Sale 5 indicated a unit value of $85.84 per square foot, which is 4.5% above the mean of the data ($82.16). The range of adjusted unit prices of the comparables was $73.10 to $94.35, reflecting a total variance of 29%; this is a reasonable range for a market transitioning from inactive to active status. The mean unit value of the data was computed at $82.16 per square foot; the median price was $78.86. I applied slightly greater weight to Sale 3 due to its close proximity and higher overall level of comparability; secondary weights were assigned to the other four sales. The weighted mean was slightly greater than the natural mean. Based on this analysis, I selected a unit val- ue of $82.25 per square foot for the subject: 8,176 Sq.

The subject property has been 100% owner-occupied by Creative Contractors, Inc. for sever- al decades; as such, there is no rental history, which might provide an indication of market rent. I have selected four comparable rent properties from Clearwater as the basis for estimating current market rent of the subject property. Analysis of five comparable rents in the neighborhood (see chart Comparable Rents on page 28) indicate a range of $12.00 to $14.95 per square foot (net and modified gross terms). First, converting all to the modified gross format, we find an adjusted range focused between $12.00 and $15.25 (27% variance). The comparable rents were then matched against the subject property in many of the same categories as found in the sales analysis in the previous section, i.e., market conditions, loca- tion, site position, unit size, quality, age/condition, functional aspects, and parking. Under market conditions we must also account for “actual” versus “asking” rents to allow for normal discounts during the negotiation process. This would apply to Comparables 1 and 4. Based upon my analysis of these comparables and granting greatest weight to No. 4, I have estimated subject’s current market rent at $12.00 per square foot (modified gross). Referring to the Income/Expense Proforma (page 29), we see potential gross income (market rent) of $98,112. I have estimated vacancy at 7%, given that the market is trending upward and there has been no appreciable increase in the supply of new space. Deducting the vacancy allowance leaves effective gross income of $91,244. Next, I estimated all appropriate operating expenses for the subject property. Property taxes total $10,136, which is the discounted figure for 2018. Insurance was estimated at $0.85 per square foot based upon actual figures drawn from similar buildings in Pinellas (non-flood hazard areas). Utilities and services are normally the tenant’s responsibility in a lease for a property of this type. TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 27 Maintenance/repairs was estimated at $3,680 annual ($0.45 per sq. ft.) based on the age and type of building. An allowance of $3,680 ($0.45 per sq. ft.) was made for capital reserves for replacement and renovations within a typical ownership period. This would accumulate $42,200 ($5.16 per sq. ft.), when invested at 3% over a 10-year term and would be available for periodic renovations and replacements. I have also deducted a management fee of $2,737 annual (3% of effective gross income) for the single-tenant property. Expenses total $27,183, or $3.32 per square foot of GFA. Deducting this figure from effec- tive gross income, we arrive at net operating income (NOI-1) of $64,061. This is the amount available for debt service and property reinvestment. Adding back capital reserves of $3,680, we arrive at NOI-2 of $67,741; this is the amount normally capitalized to value by the local market as most parties do not recognize the deduction for capital reserves (plus, highest and best use anticipates redevelopment in 5 to 10 years). 8147RC Comparable Rents 620 Drew St, Clearwater, FL 33755 Dec-18 # Address Rent/Sq.

Howev- er, most of the comparable sales utilized in this appraisal produced no indications of overall rates as they were either user acquisitions or parcels in block assemblages. Sale 4 reflected a stabilized cap rate of 6.4%, however, this B+ property is situated in the Core District and was built in 2000. Sale 5, also in the Core District and built in 1985 reflects a cap rate of 8.5%. Medical office in St. Petersburg; B+ quality; built 2002; sold in October 2017 at 8.2% cap rate. 3-Story office in Madeira Beach; B+ quality; built 1979; 14,781 sq. ft.; sold in March 2018 at 9.8% cap rate. RealtyRates.com Investor Survey for 4th Quarter 2018 reveals office properties averaging 8.97% cap rates with marginal increase from 4th Quarter 2017. Suburban offices showed av- erage rate of 8.91% and CBD average of 9.88%. Other indices taken into consideration were the following: General interest rate trend in 2019; stable to slightly increasing Age/quality of subject; B- rating Condition rating; B+ Location rating; B+ Functional rating; C Subject property falls in the 3rd tier in the investment environment. Relying primarily upon the local market data listed above, I have selected a capitalization rate of 9.25% for the sub- ject property. Capitalizing NOI at 9.25% we have: Market Value = NOI-2 /Rate Market Value = $67,741/0.0925 Market Value = $732,335 Rounded, $730,000 TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 31 Reconciliation: The subject of this appraisal is a masonry, B- quality, office building located on a 0.72-acre, interior-position site on a secondary, east/west artery in Downtown Clearwater. The building was re-purposed from a 1957-vintage, showroom/warehouse facility; it exhibits an effective age of 30 years; remaining economic life is estimated at 10 years. Improvements are judged consistent with highest and best use “as improved” for the balance of the economic life. However, the long term highest and best use is judged to be redevelopment as multi-family residential. The cost approach was excluded due to the age (61 years) of the building and the difficulty in accurately measuring depreciation; also, this methodology carries much less credibility in the market for properties of this type, size, and age. Land valuation (by sales comparison) was undertaken as a majority of the property’s value is contributed by the land; also, eventual highest and best use (5 to 10 years) was judged to be redevelopment. This process considered five recent land sales in the Downtown area, which were compared to the subject site and adjusted for any dissimilarities; it resulted in a conclu- sion of lad value “as vacant” of $14.15 per square foot, or $445,000. The sales comparison approach is normally a highly reliable method of valuing office proper- ties in this market; this approach has been applied and the unit of measure is price paid per square foot of building area. Sufficient recent (2016 through 2018) comparable data was available for analysis and was adjusted for all relevant differences. The five sales were drawn from the Downtown Clearwater market, three of these were located within one block of sub- ject. Therefore, the conclusion of market value, $675,000, is judged to be well supported and credible. The income capitalization approach was applied as a secondary methodology recognizing its limitations in terms of the limited remaining economic life of the building. Comparable rent properties from the Downtown area were researched as a basis for market rent. Allowances were deducted for vacancy and operating expenses; the net operating income was capitalized to an indication of market value. The indicated value, $730,000, was approximately 8% greater than that of the sales comparison approach Recognizing the inherent weaknesses of the income approach for short-life properties, I have placed greatest emphasis on the sale comparison approach and estimated market value of the fee simple interest of the subject property, “as is”, as of December 7, 2018, at $685,000. TOBIAS REALTY ADVISORS, LLC 32 CERTIFICATION This is to certify that, upon request for valuation by Robert Brzak, Real Estate Services Co- ordinator, City of Clearwater, I have personally inspected, collected, and analyzed various data, and appraised the fee simple interests of the Office Property (Bomstein/Creative Con- tractors, Inc.) located at 620 Drew Street, Clearwater, Florida 33755.

Belcher Road and pass Ordinance 9346-20 on first reading. (LUP2019-09003) Summary: This case involves one parcel of land located on the east side of N. Belcher Road, approximately 1,075 feet north of Drew Street. E&J Caputo Clearwater, LLC owns the parcel, which is approximately 0.729 acres. The applicant, E & J Caputo Clearwater, LLC purchased the property in 2007. For almost 30 years, the location was owned and used by a non-profit social welfare organization which provided services for senior citizens. Since 2004, the building has been used as a medical office with a lab service and ultrasound facility, including after the applicant bought the property. In August 2019, the owner entered into an agreement to lease the building to a financial broker, an office use which is not permitted in the current underlying institutional (I) future land use category or within the current Institutional (I) zoning district. The request is to change the property’s Future Land Use Map designation from Institutional (I) to Residential/Office General (R/OG). A request to rezone the property from the Institutional (I) District to the Office (O) District is being processed concurrently with this case (REZ2019-09002). The requested amendments would allow the property to be used as an office as proposed. The Planning and Development Department has determined that the proposed Future Land Use Map amendment is consistent with the provisions of 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 properties and character of the neighborhood. ·Sufficient public facilities are available to serve the properties. ·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 the 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 Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 1/13/2020 File Number: LUP2019-09003 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 and other state agencies is not required. The Community Development Board reviewed this application at its December 17, 2019 public hearing and made a unanimous recommendation of approval to the Council.

CASE: LUP2019-09003 REQUEST: To amend the Future Land Use Map designation from Institutional (I) to Residential / Office General (R/OG) GENERAL DATA: Applicant ......................... Dr. Paul E. Caputo Owner ............................. E&J Caputo Clearwater, LLC. Location .......................... 407 N. Belcher Road, located on the east side of N. Belcher Road approximately 1,075 feet north of Drew Street. Property Size ................... 0.729 acres Background: This case involves one parcel of land located on the east side of N. Belcher Road, approximately 1,075 feet north of Drew Street. E&J Caputo Clearwater, LLC owns the parcel, which is approximately 0.729 acres. The applicant, Dr. Paul Caputo, is the manager member of the company which purchased the property in 2007. For almost 30 years, the location was owned and used by a non-profit social welfare organization which provided services for senior citizens. In 2004 the Community Development Board approved a Level II Flexible Development application (Case FLD2004-02007) to use the building as a medical clinic in the Institutional (I) zoning district as part of a comprehensive infill redevelopment project. Since then, the building has been used as a medical office with a lab service and ultrasound facility, including after E&J Caputo Clearwater, LLC bought the property. In August 2019, the owner entered into an agreement to lease the building to a financial broker, an office use which is not permitted in the current underlying Institutional (I) future land use category or within the current Institutional (I) zoning district. The request is to change the property’s Future Land Use Map designation from Institutional (I) to Residential/Office General (R/OG). A request to rezone the property from the Institutional (I) District to the Office (O) District is being processed concurrently with this case (see REZ2019-09002). The requested amendments would allow the property to be used as an office as proposed. Community Development Board – December 17, 2019 LUP2019-09003 - Page 2 of 8 Level III Comprehensive Plan Amendment Review PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION The city is committed to preserving land and buildings that are needed to attract target industries and accommodate higher-wage jobs, such as this one. The proposed change is supported by the City’s stated economic development goals and objectives. Vicinity Characteristics: Maps 1 and 2 show the general location of the property and an aerial view of the amendment area and its surroundings. Map 3 shows the existing surrounding uses. Map 1 Map 2 The site is surrounded by commercial uses, including across the street where a grocery store and other neighborhood scale retail are located, and additional office buildings both to the north and south of the subject property, located along N. Belcher Road. Detached dwellings encompass most of the properties to the east and south of the subject property. Map 3 Map 4 Community Development Board – December 17, 2019 LUP2019-09003 - Page 3 of 8 Level III Comprehensive Plan Amendment Review PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION As shown on Map 4, the abutting future land use designations are: Residential/Office General (R/OG) to the north, and to the southwest; Residential Low (RL) to the east and south; Residential Urban (RU) to the south; and Commercial General (CG) to the west of the subject property, across N. Belcher Road. A comparison between the uses, densities, and intensities allowed by the present and proposed Future Land Use Map designations appears in Table 1, along with the consistent zoning districts. Table 1. Uses, Densities and Intensities Allowed by Present and Proposed Future Land Use Designations Present FLUM Designation Institutional (I) Requested FLUM Designation Residential / Office General (R/OG) Primary Uses: Public/Private Schools; Churches; Public Offices; Hospitals; Residential Equivalent Medium Density Residential; Residential Equivalent; Office Maximum Density: 12.5 Dwelling Units Per Acre 15 Dwelling Units Per Acre Maximum Intensity: FAR 0.65; ISR 0.85 FAR 0.50; ISR 0.75 Consistent Zoning Districts: Institutional (I) Medium Density Residential (MDR); Office (O) REVIEW CRITERIA: Consistency with the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan [Sections 4-603.F.1 and 4-603.F.2] Recommended Findings of Fact: Applicable goals, objective and policy of the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan which support the proposed amendment include: Goal A.2 A sufficient variety and amount of future land use categories shall be provided to accommodate public demand and promote infill development. Goal A.4. The City shall work toward a land use pattern that can be supported by the available community and public facilities that would be required to serve the development. Policy A.5.5.1 Development shall be designed to maintain and support the existing or envisioned character of the neighborhood 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 the application of the Clearwater Community Development Code. The proposed Residential/Office General (R/OG) future land use designation is compatible with the surrounding single-family residential, office and commercial uses. The Residential/Office General (R/OG) designation allows for less intense development than the current Institutional (I) designation. The applicant has indicated that the property will be utilized as an office, which would be allowed through the proposed future land use change. In addition, the proposal does not degrade the level of service for public facilities below the adopted standards (a detailed public facilities analysis follows in this report). Community Development Board – December 17, 2019 LUP2019-09003 - Page 4 of 8 Level III Comprehensive Plan Amendment Review PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION Recommended Conclusions of Law: The request does not conflict with the goals, objectives, and policies of the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan and furthers said plan as indicated in the goals, objective, and policy listed above. Consistency with the Countywide Rules Recommended Findings of Fact: The underlying Countywide Plan Map category on the proposed amendment area is Public/Semi-Public (P/SP). Residential properties to the east and south are Residential Low Medium (RLM). There are properties designated Office (O) to both the south and north of the subject property, along N. Belcher Road as well as properties designated Retail & Services (R&S) across N. Belcher Road. The proposed City of Clearwater future land use designation of Residential/Office General (R/OG) will necessitate a Countywide Plan Map amendment from the Public/Semi-Public (P/SP) category to the Office (O) category in order to maintain consistency between the City’s Future Land Use Map and the Countywide Plan Map. Section 2.3.3.5 of the Countywide Rules states that the Office (O) category is intended to accommodate areas developed, or appropriate to be developed, with office uses, low-impact employment uses, and residential uses (subject to an acreage threshold), in areas characterized by a transition between residential and commercial uses and in areas well-suited for community-scale residential/office mixed used development. The current and proposed use, as indicated by the applicant, is an office, which is an appropriate use within the area and consistent with the proposed and surrounding Countywide Plan Map categories. This segment of N. Belcher Road is identified as a Scenic/Noncommercial Corridor, with the Enhancement Connector classification. The proposed Countrywide Plan Map Category of Office (O) is consistent with the Enhancement Connector classification. Recommended Conclusions of Law: The proposed Future Land Use Map amendment is consistent with the purpose of the proposed category in the Countywide Rules. Compatibility with Surrounding Properties/Character of the City & Neighborhood [Section 4-603.F.3 and Section 4-603.F.6] Recommended Findings of Fact: Existing surrounding uses consist of office buildings to the north and south, single-family homes to the east and commercial buildings to the west, across N. Belcher Road. The proposed use of the subject property as office (currently developed as such) is compatible with the surrounding properties and neighborhood. The proposed Residential/Office General (R/OG) future land use category primarily permits residential development at a density of 15 units per acre and non-residential development at a Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of 0.50. The future land use designations of surrounding properties include Residential Low (RL), Residential/General Office (R/OG) and Commercial General (CG). Community Development Board – December 17, 2019 LUP2019-09003 - Page 5 of 8 Level III Comprehensive Plan Amendment Review PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION The proposed Residential/Office General (R/OG) future land use category, which primarily allows for moderate density residential, residential equivalent, and office uses, is consistent with the surrounding future land use designations that exist in the vicinity of the subject property, which primarily allow low to moderate density residential uses as well as office uses. The proposed amendment would allow the use of the existing building as an office, while maintaining a development pattern that is consistent with other properties in the area. Recommended Conclusions of Law: The proposed Residential/Office General (R/OG) future land use category is in character with the Future Land Use Map designations in the area. Further, the proposal is compatible with surrounding uses and consistent with the character of the surrounding properties and neighborhood. Sufficiency of Public Facilities [Section 4-603.F.4] Recommended Findings of Fact: To assess the sufficiency of public facilities needed to support potential development on the proposed amendment area, the maximum development potential of the properties under the present and requested City Future Land Use Map designations were analyzed.

Abbreviations: FLUM – Future Land Use Map DUs – Dwelling Units AC – Acres FAR – Floor Area Ratio SF – Square feet As shown in the table, there is an increase in development density (dwelling units per acre) in the amendment area and a decrease in development intensity (Floor Area Ratio - FAR) across the amendment area, which would reduce demand on public facilities as detailed further below. The following analysis compares the maximum potential development of the proposed Residential/Office General (R/OG) future land use developed with a non-residential use (15,877 SF office) to the maximum development potential of the existing Institutional (I) future land use category developed with a non-residential use (20,640 SF medical office). For reference, the existing building is approximately 9,145 SF. Community Development Board – December 17, 2019 LUP2019-09003 - Page 6 of 8 Level III Comprehensive Plan Amendment Review PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION Potable Water The change in development potential from this amendment would result in a decrease in potable water use of up to 476 gallons per day. This is determined by comparing the potential potable water utilization of the maximum square footage of a nonresidential use allowed by the proposed land use (1,588 gallons per day) to the potential utilization of the subject property if developed with the maximum square feet of a nonresidential use allowed by the current land use designation (2,064 gallons per day). The City’s current potable water demand is 11.096 million gallons per day (2018 Annual Water Report). The City’s adopted level of service (LOS) standard for potable water service is 120 gallons per day per capita, while the actual usage is estimated at 76 gallons per day per capita (2018 Annual Water Report). The City’s 10-year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan (2016-2026 Planning Period), completed October 2017, indicates that based on the updated water demand projections and other factors, the City has adequate water supply and potable water capacity for the 10-year planning horizon. Wastewater The change in development potential from this amendment would result in a decrease in wastewater use of up to 381 gallons per day. This is determined by comparing the potential waste water utilization of the proposed land use developed with the maximum square footage allowed (1,270 gallons per day) to the potential waste water generation of the current land use designation developed at the maximum square footage permitted (1,651 gallons per day). The subject property is served by the Northeast Water Reclamation Facility, which presently has excess permitted capacity estimated to be 6.46 million gallons per day. Therefore, there is excess sanitary sewer capacity to serve the amendment area. Solid Waste The change in development potential from this amendment would result in a decrease of up to 4.6 tons per year of solid waste generated when comparing the amount of waste originated by a 15,877 SF office (42.9 tons per year) to that of a 20,640 SF medical office (47.5 tons per year). Pinellas County handles all solid waste disposal at the Pinellas County Waste-to-Energy Plant and the Bridgeway Acres Sanitary Landfill which has significant capacity. Additionally, the City provides a full- service citywide recycling program which diverts waste from the landfill, helping to extend the lifespan of Bridgeway Acres. There is an excess solid waste capacity to serve the amendment area. Parkland The City’s adopted LOS for parkland acreage, which is 4 acres per 1,000 population, will not be impacted by this proposed amendment. Under both the existing and proposed land use, the LOS citywide will remain at 15.46 acres per 1,000 population. Stormwater Site plan approval will be required before the property can be redeveloped. At that time, the stormwater management system for the site will be required to meet all City and SWFWMD stormwater management criteria. Community Development Board – December 17, 2019 LUP2019-09003 - Page 7 of 8 Level III Comprehensive Plan Amendment Review PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION Streets The subject property is located on the east side of N. Belcher Road, approximately 1,075 feet north of Drew Street. To evaluate potential impacts on streets, the typical traffic impacts figure (trips per day per acre) in the Countywide Rules for the corresponding Countywide Plan Map categories (current and proposed) are compared. The current number of trips per day (126) is calculated based on the typical traffic generation numbers for the consistent for Public/Semi-Public (P/SP) category (173 trips per day per acre for medical uses). The proposed Countrywide Plan Map category of Office (O) (89 trips per day per acre) would decrease the number to 65 trips per day. This is a decrease of 61 trips per day (51% fewer trips per day) compared to the number of trips under the current designation. Recommended Conclusions of Law: Based upon the findings of fact, the proposed change would decrease the demand on public facilities since all are reduced, and will not result in the degradation of the current levels of service for potable water, sanitary sewer, solid waste, parkland, stormwater management and streets. Impact on Natural Resources [Section 4-603.F.5] Recommended Findings of Fact: No wetlands appear to be located on the subject property. The City’s codes require that development is compliant with the City’s tree preservation, landscaping and stormwater management requirement. Recommended Conclusions of Law: Based on the findings of fact, it is determined that the proposed Future Land Use Map amendment will not negatively impact natural resources on the subject property. Community Development Board – December 17, 2019 LUP2019-09003 - Page 8 of 8 Level III Comprehensive Plan Amendment Review PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION: No amendment to the Comprehensive Plan or Future Land Use Map shall be recommended for approval or receive a final action of support unless it complies with the standards contained in Section 4-603.F, Community Development Code.

Belcher Road and pass Ordinance 9347-20 on first reading. (REZ2019-09002) SUMMARY: This case involves one parcel of land located on the east side of N. Belcher Road, approximately 1,075 feet north of Drew Street. E&J Caputo Clearwater, LLC owns the parcel, which is approximately 0.729 acres. The applicant, E & J Caputo Clearwater, LLC purchased the property in 2007. For almost 30 years, the location was owned and used by a non-profit social welfare organization which provided services for senior citizens. Since 2004, the building has been used as a medical office with a lab service and ultrasound facility, including after the applicant bought the property . In August 2019, the owner entered into an agreement to lease the building to a financial broker, an office use which is not permitted in the current underlying institutional (I) future land use category or within the current Institutional (I) zoning district. The applicant is requesting to rezone the subject property from the Institutional (I) District to the Office (O) District. A request to amend the future land use category from Institutional (I) to Residential/Office General (R/OG) is being processed concurrently with this case (LUP2019-09003). The proposed Office (O) District will allow the site to continue to be used as an office as proposed and is consistent with the surrounding zoning districts that exist in the vicinity of the subject property. The Planning & Development Department has 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 Office (O) 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 Office (O) District boundary is appropriately drawn in regard to location and classification of streets, ownership lines, existing improvements, and the natural environment.

CASE: REZ2019-09002 REQUEST: To amend the Zoning Atlas designation from the Institutional (I) District to the Office (O) District. GENERAL DATA: Applicant ......................... Dr. Paul E. Caputo Owner ............................. E&J Caputo Clearwater, LLC. Location .......................... 407 N. Belcher Road, located on the east side of N. Belcher Road approximately 1,075 feet north of Drew Street. Property Size ................... 0.729 acres Background: This case involves one parcel of land located on the east side of N. Belcher Road, approximately 1,075 feet north of Drew Street. E&J Caputo Clearwater, LLC owns the parcel, which is approximately 0.729 acres. The applicant, Dr. Paul Caputo, is the manager member of the company which purchased the property in 2007. For almost 30 years, the location was owned and used by a non-profit social welfare organization which provided services for senior citizens. In 2004 the Community Development Board approved a Level II Flexible Development application (Case FLD2004-02007) to use the building as a medical clinic in the Institutional (I) zoning district as part of a comprehensive infill redevelopment project. Since then, the building has been used as a medical office with a lab service and ultrasound facility, including after E&J Caputo Clearwater, LLC bought the property. In August 2019, the owner entered into an agreement to lease the building to a financial broker, an office use which is not permitted in the current underlying Institutional (I) future land use category or within the current Institutional (I) zoning district. The request is to change the property’s Zoning Atlas designation from Institutional (I) District to Office (O) District. A request to amend the future land use category from Institutional (I) to the Residential/Office General (R/OG) is being processed concurrently with this case (see LUP2019-09003). The requested amendments would allow the property to continue to be used as an office as proposed. Community Development Board – December 17, 2019 REZ2019-09002 - Page 2 of 7 Level III Zoning Atlas Amendment Review PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION The City is committed to preserving land and buildings that are needed to attract target industries and accommodate higher-wage jobs, such as this one. The proposed change is supported by the City’s stated economic development goals and objectives. Vicinity Characteristics: Maps 1 and 2 show the general location of the property and an aerial view of the amendment area and its surroundings. Map 3 shows the existing surrounding uses. Map 1 Map 2 The site is surrounded by commercial uses, including across the street where a grocery store and other neighborhood scale retail are located, and additional office buildings both to the north and south of the subject property, located along N. Belcher Road. Detached dwellings encompass most of the properties to the east and south of the subject property. Map 3 Map 4 Community Development Board – December 17, 2019 REZ2019-09002 - Page 3 of 7 Level III Zoning Atlas Amendment Review PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION As shown on Map 4, the abutting zoning districts are: Low Medium Density Residential (LMDR) and R-3 Single Family Residential (Pinellas County) to the east and south; Office (O) to the north and south; and Commercial (C) to the west, across the street. REVIEW CRITERIA: Consistency with the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan and Community Development Code and City Regulations [Sections 4-602.F.1] Recommended Findings of Fact: Applicable goals, objective and policy of the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan which support the proposed amendment include: Goal A.2 A sufficient variety and amount of future land use categories shall be provided to accommodate public demand and promote infill development. Goal A.4. The City shall work toward a land use pattern that can be supported by the available community and public facilities that would be required to serve the development. Policy A.5.5.1 Development shall be designed to maintain and support the existing or envisioned character of the neighborhood. 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 the application of the Clearwater Community Development Code. Applicable section of the Community Development Code which supports the proposed amendment: Division 10: Office District, Section 2-1001. Intent and Purpose. The intent and purpose of the Office “O” District is to provide the citizens of the City of Clearwater with convenient access to professional services and high quality jobs throughout the city without adversely impacting the integrity of residential neighborhoods, diminishing the scenic quality of the City of Clearwater or negatively impacting the safe and efficient movement of people and things within the City of Clearwater. The proposed Office (O) District is compatible with the surrounding single-family residential, office, and commercial uses. The Office (O) designation allows for less intense development than the current Institutional (I) designation. The applicant has indicated that the property will be utilized as an office, which would be allowed through the proposed zoning amendment. In addition, the proposal does not degrade the level of service for public facilities below the adopted standards (a detailed public facilities analysis follows in this report). Recommended Conclusions of Law: The request does not conflict with the goals, objective, and policies of the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan and furthers said plan as indicated in the goals, objective, and policy listed above. Community Development Board – December 17, 2019 REZ2019-09002 - Page 4 of 7 Level III Zoning Atlas Amendment Review PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION Compatibility with Surrounding Properties/Character of the City & Neighborhood [Section 4-602.F.2, Section 4-602.F.3 and Section 4-602.F.4] Recommended Findings of Fact: Existing surrounding uses consist of office buildings to the north and south, single-family homes to the east and commercial buildings to the west, across N. Belcher Road. The proposed uses of the subject property as office (currently developed as such) is compatible with the surrounding properties and neighborhood. The proposed Office (O) zoning district is consistent with the surrounding zoning districts that exist in the vicinity of the subject property. The use of the property as an office use, as proposed and as permitted in the requested Office (O) District, is compatible, consistent and in character with the surrounding properties and the neighborhood. Recommended Conclusions of Law: The proposed Office (O) zoning district is in character with the zoning districts in the area. Further, the proposal is compatible with surrounding uses and consistent with the character of the surrounding properties and neighborhood. Sufficiency of Public Facilities [Section 4-602.F.5] Recommended Findings of Fact: To assess the sufficiency of public facilities needed to support potential development on the proposed amendment area, the maximum development potential of the properties under the present and requested City Future Land Use Map designations were analyzed (see Table 1). Even though this is a Zoning Atlas amendment application, maximum development potential is based on the underlying future land use, so for purposes of this analysis sufficiency of public facilities is based on the future land use map designation.

The following analysis compares the maximum potential development of the proposed Residential/Office General (R/OG) future land use developed with a non-residential use (15,877 SF office) to the maximum development potential of the existing Institutional (I) future land use category developed with a non-residential use (20,640 SF medical office). For reference, the existing building is approximately 9,145 SF. Potable Water The change in development potential from this amendment would result in a decrease in potable water use of up to 476 gallons per day. This is determined by comparing the potential potable water utilization of the maximum square footage of a nonresidential use allowed by the proposed land use (1,588 gallons per day) to the potential utilization of the subject property if developed with the maximum square feet of a nonresidential use allowed by the current land use designation (2,064 gallons per day). The City’s current potable water demand is 11.096 million gallons per day (2018 Annual Water Report). The City’s adopted level of service (LOS) standard for potable water service is 120 gallons per day per capita, while the actual usage is estimated at 76 gallons per day per capita (2018 Annual Water Report). The City’s 10-year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan (2016-2026 Planning Period), completed October 2017, indicates that based on the updated water demand projections and other factors, the City has adequate water supply and potable water capacity for the 10-year planning horizon. Wastewater The change in development potential from this amendment would result in a decrease in wastewater use of up to 381 gallons per day. This is determined by comparing the potential waste water utilization of the proposed land use developed with the maximum square footage allowed (1,270 gallons per day) to the potential waste water generation of the current land use designation developed at the maximum square footage permitted (1,651 gallons per day). The subject property is served by the Northeast Water Reclamation Facility, which presently has excess permitted capacity estimated to be 6.46 million gallons per day. Therefore, there is excess sanitary sewer capacity to serve the amendment area. Solid Waste The change in development potential from this amendment would result in a decrease of up to 4.6 tons per year of solid waste generated when comparing the amount of waste originated by a 15,877 SF office (42.9 tons per year) to that of a 20,640 SF medical office (47.5 tons per year).

There is an excess solid waste capacity to serve the amendment area. Community Development Board – December 17, 2019 REZ2019-09002 - Page 6 of 7 Level III Zoning Atlas Amendment Review PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION Parkland The City’s adopted LOS for parkland acreage, which is 4 acres per 1,000 population, will not be impacted by this proposed amendment. Under both the existing and proposed land use, the LOS citywide will remain at 15.46 acres per 1,000 population. Stormwater Site plan approval will be required before the property can be redeveloped. At that time, the stormwater management system for the site will be required to meet all City and SWFWMD stormwater management criteria. Streets The subject property is located on the east side of N. Belcher Road, approximately 1,075 feet north of Drew Street. To evaluate potential impacts on streets, the typical traffic impacts figure (trips per day per acre) in the Countywide Rules for the corresponding Countywide Plan Map categories (current and proposed) are compared. The current number of trips per day (126) is calculated based on the typical traffic generation numbers for the consistent for Public/Semi-Public (P/SP) category (173 trips per day per acre for medical uses). The proposed Countrywide Plan Map category of Office (O) (89 trips per day per acre) would decrease the number to 65 trips per day. This is a decrease of 61 trips per day (51% fewer trips per day) compared to the number of trips under the current designation. Recommended Conclusions of Law: Based upon the findings of fact, the proposed change would decrease the demand on public facilities since all are reduced, and will not result in the degradation of the current levels of service for potable water, sanitary sewer, solid waste, parkland, stormwater management and streets. Location of District Boundaries [Section 4-602.F.6] Recommended Findings of Fact: The location of the proposed Office (O) District is logical and consistent with the boundaries of the subject property. Recommended Conclusions of Law: The District boundaries are appropriately drawn in regard to location and classifications of streets, ownership lines, existing improvements and the natural environment. Community Development Board – December 17, 2019 REZ2019-09002 - Page 7 of 7 Level III Zoning Atlas Amendment Review PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT LONG RANGE PLANNING DIVISION SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION: No amendment to the Zoning Atlas shall be recommended for approval or receive a final action of support unless it complies with the standards contained in Section 4-602.F, Community Development Code. Table 2 below depicts the consistency of the proposed amendment with the standards under Section 4-602.F: Table 2. Consistency with Community Development Code Standards for Review CDC Section 4-602 Standard Consistent Inconsistent F.1 The proposed amendment is consistent with and features, the goals, policies and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan and furthers the purposes of this Development Code and other city ordinances and actions designed to implement the plan. X F.2 The available uses to which the property may be put are appropriate to the property which is subject to the proposed amendment and compatible with existing and planned uses in the area. X F.3 The amendment does not conflict with the needs and character of the neighborhood and the city. X F.4 The amendment will not adversely or unreasonably affect the use of other property in the area.
