Re The Grand Bellaglo at Bay Watch
Dear Clndl
Based on the definition of a "subdivIsion" as set forth In ArtIcle 8 of the
Clearwater Community Code, It IS our understanding that the City Will not requIre
platting of the referenced property It appears that the platting requirements set forth In
the Code may be In conflict With the "subdivIsIOn" definition, and therefore, we ask that
you confirm to us In writing that the "subdivIsion" definition Will govern the project and
therefore, platting Will not be required
Very truly yours,
RALlar

BPRC meetmg, It was determmed that the project SIte would be divided mto two
distinct parcels and according to the City Land Development Code, a record plat will
not be reqUIred for thIS project. The delineation between the two parcels Will be
proVided by meets and bounds legal descriptIOns for the purposes of potential
resales of each parcel m the future
Please proVide a determrnatIon In \VTltmg from the City of Clearwater verifying that
our understandmg IS correct I can be contacted at (813) 880-8881 If you have any
further questlOns regardmg thiS request,
