(CDC of Tampa); and allow appropriate officials to execute same, together with all other instruments required to affect closing. (APH) This property is currently vacant, and it is identified by Resolution 19-10 as a city-owned property appropriate for use as affordable housing (Pinellas County Property I.D. #10-29-15-33552-006-0390). The property is suitable for construction of a single-family home. The city acquired the property at no cost in 2015 through the Pinellas County escheatment process due to non-payment of taxes. This property is located within the North Greenwood Neighborhood Revitalization Strategy Area. CDC of Tampa has a history of contributing to community revitalization and is a reputable builder of affordable homes in the Tampa Bay region. A staff appraisal valued the property at $21,700 on December 30, 2020. According to Section 2.01(d)(5)(i) of the Clearwater City Charter, the City Council may approve the donation or sale for less than fair market value of city-owned property of not more than five acres in size for Workforce Housing. Workforce Housing means housing affordable to persons or families whose total annual income does not exceed 120 percent of the Area Median Income (AMI), adjusted for household size, as published by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development for Pinellas County or metropolitan area. According to information provided by the Pinellas County Property Appraiser, the property is 0.084 acres (3,640 square feet). Councilmember Bunker moved to declare surplus, for the purpose of donation for development of affordable housing, real property located at 1112 Palm Bluff Street; approve the Real Property Donation Agreement between the City and Corporation to Develop Communities of Tampa, Inc. (CDC of Tampa); and allow appropriate officials to execute same, together with all other instruments required to affect closing. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. 7.2 Approve the correction of a scrivener’s error in the title block of Ordinance 9431-20, adopted on December 3, 2020, vacating portions of a 15-foot drainage and utility easement and a 10-foot utility easement, and pass Ordinance 9436-21 on first reading. Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 18, 2021 Page 5 City of Clearwater A scrivener’s error was made in the title block only of Ordinance 9431-20, setting forth a quarter section call as the “NW” rather than the “NE”, and it is necessary to correct said scrivener’s error. Ordinance 9436-21 corrects the title block (revises NW to the correct, NE) in the adopted Ordinance No. 9431-20. This Ordinance vacates a portion of an easement as part of the David Avenue land swap with Creative Contractors. Councilmember Hamilton moved to approve the correction of a scrivener’s error in the title block of Ordinance 9431-20, adopted on December 3, 2020, vacating portions of a 15-foot drainage and utility easement and a 10-foot utility easement. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. Ordinance 9436-21 was presented and read by title only. Vice Mayor Allbritton moved to pass Ordinance 9436-21 on first reading. The motion was duly seconded and upon roll call, the vote was: Ayes: 5 - Mayor Hibbard, Councilmember Hamilton, Vice Mayor Allbritton, Councilmember Bunker and Councilmember Beckman 7.3 Declare as surplus, certain city owned real property located at 701 Missouri Avenue N. for the purpose of entering a Business Lease Contract with Lutheran Services Florida, Inc. (LSF) for lease of the site for the Head Start Program. (APH) The City has leased the city-owned property at 701 N Missouri Avenue for the Head Start program since the 1971 and, more specifically, to Lutheran Services Florida, for over 7 years. During its due diligence in considering the requested lease, city staff was unable to locate historical documentation of a declaration of surplus for the property. It is suspected, based on the history of the leases, a rezoning was done in conjunction with a referendum which approved the existing use in 1998, that a declaration of surplus was likely accomplished despite not locating record of a surplus. This declaration is intended to clear the record as to the existing use. Head Start is a community service program aimed at providing preschool-aged children with structured recreation and educational opportunities. The Head Start program is funded by federal grant dollars and is being operated by LSF, a non-profit agency, at the 701 N Missouri site, under the direction of the US Department of Health and Human Services. The Head Start facility at 701 N. Missouri is being operated entirely on city owned property. The 0.98-acre site contains a playground and portable modular units for use as a pre-school nursery. The existing modular units are beyond their useful life, so LSF is proposing removing two or three of the modular units and replacing them with new ones. The City holds no interest in the existing modular units or in the proposed new units. LSF’s current lease Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 18, 2021 Page 6 City of Clearwater expires on 12/31/2023 with an option to extend another 5-year term through 12/31/2028. LSF has requested a new lease term through the year 2036 for the 701 N Missouri site. This new lease term will allow LSF to meet their minimum 15-year lease requirement to secure federal funding for the purchase of the new modular units. There will be a federal interest in these new modular units through the Department of Health and Human Services/Administration for Children and Families/Office of Head Start. The proposed lease has terms and conditions similar to the previous lease. The lease has a rental rate of $1.00 a year for the lease term. Staff supports the declaration of surplus and related lease to LSF. Councilmember Beckman moved to declare as surplus, certain city owned real property located at 701 Missouri Avenue N. for the purpose of entering a Business Lease Contract with Lutheran Services Florida, Inc. (LSF) for lease of the site for the Head Start Program. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. 8.

(LSF) (Tenant) for the use of a city-owned property located at 701 Missouri Avenue N for a Head Start Preschool and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. LSF’s current lease expires on 12/31/2023 with an option to extend another 5-year term through 12/31/2028. LSF has requested a new lease with a term through the year 2036 for the 701 N Missouri site. The new 15-year lease term will allow LSF to meet their minimum 15-year lease requirement to secure federal funding for the purchase of new modular classroom units. There will be a federal interest in these new modular units through the Department of Health and Human Services/Administration for Children and Families/Office of Head Start. The City holds no interest in the existing modular units or in the proposed new units. The approval of the declaration of surplus of the subject property in the preceding City Council agenda item gives the City the authority to contract for a new lease on the 701 N Missouri site. The proposed lease has terms and conditions similar to the previous lease. The lease has a rental rate of $1 per year for the lease term. Staff supports the Business Lease Contract with LSF. Councilmember Beckman moved to approve a Business Lease Contract between the City of Clearwater (City) and Lutheran Services Florida, Inc. (LSF) (Tenant) for the use of a city-owned property located at 701 Missouri Avenue N for a Head Start Preschool and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. 9.3 Review the Value Engineered Items in the redesigned Coachman Park and provide direction. Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 18, 2021 Page 9 City of Clearwater Staff provided a list and most recent renderings of various value engineered components proposed as adjustments to the Coachman Park final design plans. Previous iterations of the plan were designed around a performance venue located centrally to the park. With the re-orientation of the performance venue to the north, various active areas of the park were consolidated toward the southerly portion of the park and redesigned to provide a cohesive active park area with a performance venue separated by a large and open green as a centerpiece of the new waterfront. As part of the overall value engineering effort, final design is intended to ensure park amenities match the identified financial resources. It is anticipated that additional, yet undetermined funding support will be generated by sale or leasing of bluff properties, as well as the anticipated application for various funding requests from both the legislature and/or TDC dollars. These latter sources remain as of now, indetermined. For that reason, staff is recommending consideration of moving forward with current park plans. While it may be a fact that some redesign of certain amenity components may be restricted in future deigns (interactive splash pad), many if not all of additional design components could occur via future sponsorships or naming rights, or as on-going capital improvements which could be planned as later additions to the park once the facility is up and running. It should be noted that even if somewhat reduced in size, the interactive splash pad feature continues to represent a substantial component of the active area of the park along with many other amenities. Assistant City Manager Michael Delk said after the work session, he met with staff regarding the total package. Since Council has expressed some interest to add back the value engineered (VE) items, staff is recommending continuing the agenda item until final design of the outstanding VE items have been completed. He said the delay will not slow down construction of the park. One individual opposed cutting back on the splash pad or shade components. One individual expressed concerns that the proposed revisions do not connect to the original vision for the park. One individual submitted an eComment supporting shaded picnic pavilions, which was read into the record by the City Clerk (see page 21). In response to a comment, it was stated that Council was not considering eliminating the splash pad or playground but reducing the number of nozzles in the splash pad. Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 18, 2021 Page 10 City of Clearwater Mr. Delk said staff recommends continuing the item to March 15. The March 2 special work session will discuss various options for the operation and maintenance of the park and venue. It was suggested that staff also provide information on police enforcement in the park. Vice Mayor Allbritton moved to continue Item 9.3 to March 15, 2021. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. 9.4 Authorize commencement of the Memorial Causeway Bridge Lighting Project, approve the transfer of $1,485,000 from general fund reserves at first quarter, authorize a Community Aesthetic Feature Agreement between the city of Clearwater and the Florida Department of Transportation, authorize the appropriate officials to execute same and adopt Resolution 21-06. Following council approval in December 2019, staff contracted with consultants H.W. Lochner to design and engineer aesthetic lighting for the Memorial Causeway Bridge. This lighting will enhance the unique architecture of the bridge and produce a smooth color gradient that can be controlled by city staff. The project is in the final stage of permittable design. Engineering plans were updated to accommodate the relocation of the amphitheater. These plans include a two-phase implementation that allows for the installation of lighting prior to the construction of Imagine Clearwater. Once construction of the amphitheater is underway, a permanent conduit and control board will be installed in the back of house. A total of $166,656 in design costs has been spent and encumbered to-date with Imagine Clearwater project funding. The final engineer’s estimate for the construction is $1,335,932.94. Additionally, a restoration and removal deposit of $84,488.40 is required by FDOT. With contingency, a total of $1,485,000 of General Fund reserves is requested to complete the bridge lighting project. Completed stages: July 15, 2020 Permit / USCG Approvals August 14, 2020 100% Design Submittal August 21, 2020 100% Engineer’s Estimate September 25, 2020 Final Plans Submittal With an approved budget allocation, staff will present to Council a resolution to Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 18, 2021 Page 11 City of Clearwater enter into a Community Aesthetic Feature Agreement with the Florida Department of Transportation. This agreement will complete the FDOT permitting process. Staff will then coordinate with Skanska to advertise for construction bids and generate a Guaranteed Maximum Price for this project. APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: A first quarter budget amendment will provide a transfer of $1,485,000 from General Fund Reserves to capital improvement project ENGF200003, Memorial Causeway Bridge Lighting to fund this project. USE OF RESERVE FUNDS: Funding for this contract will be provided by a first quarter budget amendment allocating General Fund reserves in the amount of $1,485,000 to capital improvement project ENGF200003, Memorial Causeway Bridge Lighting. Inclusive of this item if approved, a net total of $3,181,540 of General Fund reserves has been appropriated by Council to fund expenditures in the 2020/21 operating budget. The remaining balance in General Fund reserves after the 8.5% reserve is approximately $32.6 million, or 21.4% of the current General Fund operating budget. In response to questions, Cultural Affairs Coordinator Christopher Hubbard said the City is in the final stage for obtaining a permit from FDOT. The last item in this process is the Community Aesthetic Feature, which is largely related to public art and signage features. Once the community aesthetic feature is enacted, the City has 2 years to implement the permit. He said the City is required to maintain $85,000 in reserves for the removal of the lighting infrastructure, which is part of the $1.4 million project cost. The lighting will be located on the north and south sides of the bridge. He said no concerns have been raised regarding the proposed lighting impacting sea turtles. One individual spoke in opposition. One individual submitted an eComment in opposition that was read into the record by the City Clerk (see page 21). One individual expressed concerns that funding used for the bridge lighting will divert needed funds away from Imagine Clearwater. Mr. Delk said the lighting is programmable allowing staff to implement a lighting scheme during the week and another during the weekends. Clearwater has one of the most iconic unique underutilized waterfronts in the region. The bridge is an iconic piece of architecture that can also be managed as a community amenity that will enliven the waterfront and not Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 18, 2021 Page 12 City of Clearwater offend members of the community. In response to questions, Senior Landscape Architect Catherine Corcoran said the lighting infrastructure and control panel costs are included in the Imagine Clearwater budget. Mr. Hubbard said the permit is good for two years to implement the project and 20 years for the installation of the lighting. If the project is not implemented within two years, the City may need to restart the permitting process if changes were made to the hardware or fixtures. Ms. Corcoran said the City does not have to move forward during the 2-year timeframe; staff has been in constant communication with FDOT, who is giving the City flexibility with time to commence. Discussion ensued with concerns expressed that now is not the time to pursue the project given the costs associated with Imagine Clearwater. Support was expressed to implement the underground mechanics and conduits. It was stated the lighting project can be implemented after the park has been finalized. Councilmember Beckman moved to postpone authorization of commencement of Item 9.4. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. 9.5 Authorize moving forward with a North Ward Community Preservation and Restoration plan for the historically significant North Ward Elementary School and establish initial project funding to respond to immediate maintenance needs. The historic North Ward School was one of the first public schools constructed in the newly formed Pinellas County in 1912. The original North Ward school was constructed in 1915. The school was expanded with a second structure in 1926. In addition, North Ward was for many years a segregated facility but became integrated in the late 60’s and early 70’s. North Ward was finally closed in 2009. North Ward continues to remain a special place in the community with a deep and abiding history of significance to generations of students who began their educational careers in the Old Bay district of Clearwater. In 2019, the City of Clearwater acquired North Ward School from the Pinellas County School Board for $1.8 million. The City obtained from Wannamaker Jenson Architects a conceptual review and rendering of a mixed-use rehabilitation and activation plan. This plan incorporated preservation of the two main historic structures and a unifying modern compatible addition that would Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 18, 2021 Page 13 City of Clearwater preserve but restore occupancy status to the 1915 and 1926 historic structures. This purpose of this agenda item is to authorize formulation of a strategy for preservation and activation of the North Ward School. This strategy is proposed to occur in phases: 1. Stabilize and protect the school as an important community asset 2. Assess the potential for historic preservation designation 3. Develop an activation plan 4. Restoration of the structures for occupancy 5. Solicit partnership(s) for creating active commercial uses 6. Solicit partnership (s) for creating community social and civic uses 7. Establish North Ward as contributor to the North Greenwood CRA The City has implemented Downtown District Standards to guide the development and redevelopment of sites in Downtown Clearwater. The standards are designed to accomplish among other things the following: • Encourage mixed use, pedestrian-oriented development. • Promote context-sensitive forms, patterns, and intensities of development. • Support a variety of new housing types to provide for a range of affordability and mix of incomes. • Preserve and celebrate the unique features of Downtown's community and neighborhoods. • Encourage the renovation, restoration and/or reuse of existing historic structures: and • Provide for the design of safe, attractive, and accessible places for working, living, and shopping. (Ord. No. 9149-18, § 8, 8-2-18) The 2018 update of Clearwater’s Downtown Redevelopment Plan expanded the Old Bay Character District so that it now includes the North Ward Elementary School. That plan states “Reopening the North Ward School as a public school or marine/maritime school or visual and performing arts school is encouraged to enhance the neighborhood and utilize the unique structure. Additionally, the North Ward School could be adapted to a community/cultural center, art gallery or museum and improved with publicly accessible amenities like a playground, garden, or space for outdoor events to expand the cultural attractions in the District. Historic designation of the North Ward School to preserve the structure while allowing for adaptive reuse is supported (page 62 of the Clearwater Downtown Redevelopment Plan as updated 2018). Adaptive reuse of the North Ward school is consistent with the City of Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 18, 2021 Page 14 City of Clearwater Clearwater Comprehensive Plan, Downtown Redevelopment Plan, and the North Marina Master Plan. At the February 16 work session, staff presented a strategy for the preservation and activation of North Ward School. Staff seeks confirmation of Council’s concurrence with the strategy as presented: • Stabilize Property • Pursue listing on the National Register of Historic Places • Issue RFP for the rehabilitation and adaptive reuse of the N. Ward School with uses supportive of the redevelopment goals of the Old Bay neighborhood. • Adopt ordinance establishing a Local Ad Valorem Tax Exemption for Historic Properties • Pursue local historic designation of N. Ward School APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: A first quarter budget amendment will establish capital improvement project C2101, North Ward Preservation Plan, recognizing a budget transfer of $75,000 in General Fund revenue from project C1907, City Hall Hardening to fund this project. In response to questions, Planning and Development Director Gina Clayton said stabilizing the structure will entail patching the roof to make it watertight. Thirteen water leak points have been identified. Assistant City Manager Michael Delk said he has authorized repairs to address the roof leaks and encroachment of growing vines into the building. Councilmember Bunker moved to authorize moving forward with a North Ward Community Preservation and Restoration plan for the historically significant North Ward Elementary School and establish initial project funding to respond to immediate maintenance needs. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. 9.6 Strategic Visioning Process Review proposals submitted by: 1. Florida Institute of Government 2. Jim Anaston-Karas Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 18, 2021 Page 15 City of Clearwater In response to questions, Public Communications Director Joelle Castelli said the feedback survey usually obtain responses from those already engaged with the City, which are typically the silent majority. A statistically viable survey includes a resident sample from all over the city and provides data that can be applied to all residents with a 95% certainty. The City Clerk said FIOG and Mr. Karas have conducted strategic visions for Florida municipalities and were recommended by the Florida League of Cities. One individual suggested that the strategic plan include environmental stewardship. One individual stated that the City's current strategic plan never took off. Discussion ensued with council consensus to include a second community forum, the statistically viable survey and the employee survey. Councilmember Hamilton moved to approve the proposal submitted by FIOG. The motion was duly seconded and carried unanimously. 10. City Manager Verbal Reports 10.1 PSTA/Forward Pinellas Update - Vice Mayor Allbritton Discussion deferred to the next meeting. 11. City Attorney Reports – None. 12. Other Council Action 12.1 TBARTA Resolution - Councilmember Hamilton Councilmember Hamilton said staff has recommended not to approve a resolution that addresses the repeal of the regional planning association. The City’s lobbyists are working with the bill sponsors to address any concerns. Staff has provided a resolution opposing legislation that would repeal TBARTA. Resolution 21-10 was presented and read by title only. Councilmember Hamilton moved to adopt Resolution 21-10. The motion was duly Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 18, 2021 Page 16 City of Clearwater seconded and upon roll call, the vote was: Ayes: 5 - Mayor Hibbard, Councilmember Hamilton, Vice Mayor Allbritton, Councilmember Bunker and Councilmember Beckman 13. Closing comments by Councilmembers (limited to 3 minutes) Vice Mayor Allbritton said eyes need to be kept on Tallahassee, it seems every year they try to take home rule away from municipalities and that Council has better judgement over what Clearwater’s citizens need. He said there are currently few bills in committee meetings that will take away some home rule, he said he hopes they don’t pass and will die out Councilmember Beckman said she will host a meet and greet on Saturday at 10:00 a.m. in Morningside Meadows. She said there is a 2nd intersection mural painting this weekend and encouraged all to come out and help. Councilmember Hamilton said historically, once Valentine’s Day passes, the Spring season kicks in with an increase in traffic. He said he’s not sure what the season will hold given the severity of the pandemic and uncertainty. He asked all to be careful and courteous. Councilmember Bunker said his thoughts and prayers are with everyone in Texas after their winter storm. He said there was a story in the paper about a person arrested in the Bank of America building accused of stealing $1.8 billion in a Ponzi scheme. He said he is interested to find out if some of the money filtered into downtown businesses. 14. Closing Comments by Mayor Mayor Hibbard expressed his thoughts and prayers to the family and PCSO for the passing of Deputy Magli. He said he and the City Manager attended the Clearwater High School groundbreaking ceremony today and the principal will be coming to a Council meeting to provide information on what citizens and students can expect. He thanked Vice Mayor Allbritton and Mr. Horne for going to the flag football event that was associated with Super Bowl; he said there is a group of people from all over the country that came in for the game and it aired on ESPN for 2 hours. He congratulated the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for their Super Bowl win. He reviewed recent and upcoming events. Draft City Council Meeting Minutes February 18, 2021 Page 17 City of Clearwater 15.

Although Clearwater has been a vacation destination for generations due to its climate and beautiful views, the city has an agricultural and industrial past. In the 1930s, Clearwater was the “chief shipping point” for Pinellas County, which resulted in lasting impacts to the subsurface. Unfortunately, by the 1960s many businesses had left the downtown area to relocate to the newly growing commercial centers along US Highway 19 North. As businesses moved out, so did residential development, causing many to relocate. This mass exodus from the downtown area left vacant properties in its wake in need of assessment, remediation and redevelopment. With the blight throughout the city limits, City leaders knew they had to be proactive in creating a Brownfield Program that would eliminate the environmental concerns and boost the local economy through thoughtful economic development practices. The City of Clearwater has a long tenure in the EPA Brownfields Program as shown by their many EPA Brownfield grant awards from 1996–2009 leading to a multitude of successful redevelopment projects that supported local economic development. Their EPA Brownfield (RLF) Pilot Grant was one of the first to provide sub-grants and loans for assessment and cleanup activities throughout the city limits. With the Program Income funds from the RLF Program, the City intends to create a sub-grant award process for the assessment and remediation of brownfield properties throughout the city limits to further redevelopment initiatives by providing a direct economic benefit to the City’s sensitive populations suffering from environmental justice issues. 2.0 CLEARWATER BROWNFIELD PROGRAM 2.1 Past EPA Grant Accomplishments The City of Clearwater has a long standing and successful Brownfield Program. Since their first award in 1996, the City has been awarded seven EPA Brownfield grants (1996–2009) resulting in 73 assessments and 17 cleanups. The 2003 $400,000 Assessment Grant resulting in 10 Phase II Environmental Site Assessments (ESA) and 4 Supplemental Assessments created over $2.4 million in leveraged funding and 4 acres ready for reuse. The 2007 $400,000 Assessment Grant resulting in 6 Phase I ESAs, 2 Phase II ESAs, and 2 Supplemental Assessments created nearly $290,000 in leveraged funds and 44 acres ready for reuse. The 2009 $400,000 Assessment Grant resulting in 3 Phase I ESAs, 2 Phase II ESAs, and 1 Supplemental Assessment created over $283,000 in leveraged funding and 40 acres ready for reuse. RLF Final Expenditures & Closeout Plan ■ Clearwater, Florida February 18, 2021 ■ US EPA Cooperative Agreement No. BF-98487299 4 2.2 EPA Brownfields RLF Through the EPA Brownfield RLF Pilot grant, the City loaned funds to cleanup two (2) properties that had been identified as viable candidates using the RLF. The identified properties received eligibility approval by EPA for cleanup activities. 2.2.1 Former Clearwater Automotive Property The Clearwater Automotive property, located at 205 South Martin Luther King Junior Avenue, past land uses of an auto salvage yard, a foundry and a dry-cleaning facility caused significant environmental issues. The City completed a Phase I ESA in 2004 followed by a combined Phase II ESA and Brownfields Site Assessment Report in 2005, which found polyaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) and heavy metal impacts in shallow soils but no impacts to groundwater were identified. To complete additional soil assessment, the City demolished the remaining buildings on the property in 2006. Additional sampling was completed during the months of September 2006 through January 2007. Some of the impacted soils were excavated in 2007 but due to insufficient funding, areas of impacted soil were left onsite. Additional assessment revealed offsite impacts in 2007. On July 1, 2009, the City received Site Rehabilitation Completion Order (SRCO) from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection which deemed the site cleanup activities complete. EPA Brownfield Assessment funding spent at the site from 2003-2009 totaled $367,622. EPA Cleanup funding spent at the site totaled $648,827. The site has been deemed ready for anticipated reuse. 2.2.2 Former CarPro Property The former CarPro property, located at 1359 Cleveland Street, had a historical land use of car repair, detailing shop and an automotive repair shop which resulted in environmental contaminates including petroleum, volatile organic compounds, heavy metals, and PAHs in the groundwater. EPA Brownfield Assessment funding allocated to the site totaled $250,425 for a Phase II and cleanup planning took place between 2005-2012. Cleanup of the property was initiated in 2011 which required $325,440 of RLF funds for the project. The CarPro site remediation activities remain underway. 2.3 Project Team & Responsibilities The City’s Brownfield Program is managed by Clearwater’s Economic Development and Housing Department (ED&H) as the department provides quality affordable housing and community services and directly links assistance to emerging and existing businesses throughout Clearwater. Chuck Lane, Assistant Director, serves as the Brownfield Project Director and is responsible for the oversight and completion of administrative and financial requirements of the City’s Brownfield Program. Mr. Lane began working with the City in 2011 and has served as Assistant Director of ED&H since 2016. Phil Kirkpatrick, Senior Economic Development Coordinator, serves as the Brownfield Project Manager and is responsible for the day-to-day activities and the timely and successful expenditure of funds of the Brownfield Program. Mr. Joe DeCicco, Senior Environmental Specialist, serves as Subject Matter Expert and has been with Clearwater Engineering for 12 years. Mr. Jay Ravins, City Finance Director, is responsible for RLF Final Expenditures & Closeout Plan ■ Clearwater, Florida February 18, 2021 ■ US EPA Cooperative Agreement No. BF-98487299 5 managing the finances of the sub-grant awards. Mr. Ravins has 39 years of accounting and finance experience both in private industry and public sector, with 27 of those years in government. The City has always valued the input of their community members and is committed to keeping them involved in every step of the process, which is evident based on their long Brownfield Program history dating back to 1996. To keep the community involved, the City created a Brownfield Advisory Board (BAB), with meetings dating back to 1998. The BAB consists of nine local individuals which include: three business owners/representatives, three agency or governmental representatives and three residents of the city of Clearwater. The BAB meets at a minimum on an annual basis and more frequently on as needed basis. The BAB is responsible for making recommendations and to provide a broader perspective for review, approval and issuance of sub-grants. The City procures environmental consultants to assist with assessment and remediation of brownfield sites. The City’s Procurement Division will advertise, solicit, and select a qualified environmental consultant to assist with the technical and reporting portions of the Brownfield Program, in full compliance with Federal Procurement Standards. The City of Clearwater procurement process is governed by the Code of Ordinances, City of Clearwater, Articles & Divisions; Sections 2.541 through 2.564. The City has built a strong working relationship with the FDEP through the implementation of their many EPA Brownfield Grant awards. The City will establish with the FDEP how they will receive copies of documentation and if they would like to be notified of state assessment activities. The City will provide FDEP the opportunity to review all remedial technical reports. Through the FDEP Brownfields Program, developers and community members are educated in the benefits of the state incentives of entering into Brownfield Site Rehabilitation Agreements and understanding brownfield designations. In addition, the FDEP will assist in the review and approval of petroleum site eligibility and provide technical assistance as needed. Applicants who plan to conduct cleanup activities will be directed to the FDEP Brownfields Program. The state will identify cleanup standards and other requirements and will oversee cleanup activities. Correspondence with the state will be achieved by both electronic and hard copy documents. 3.0 CLEARWATER BROWNFIELD CLOSEOUT PLAN 3.1 Project Funding Criteria The City of Clearwater plans to utilize the funds from their EPA Brownfield Revolving Loan Program for the primary purpose of awarding sub-grants for assessment and remediation of eligible brownfield properties. Recipients of sub-grant funding for assessment activities will be evaluated and approved by City staff. Recipients of sub-grant funding for remediation activities will be selected in conjunction with City staff and the Brownfield Advisory Board (BAB) by thoroughly reviewing their application for funding. The application that will be utilized is provided in Appendix A: City of Clearwater RLF Final Expenditures & Closeout Plan ■ Clearwater, Florida February 18, 2021 ■ US EPA Cooperative Agreement No. BF-98487299 6 Brownfield Revolving Loan Fund Sub-Grant Program Application. The evaluation and approval form the City will utilize is provided in Appendix B: City of Clearwater Brownfield Revolving Loan Fund Sub-Grant Program Application Approval Sheet. The sub-grant funding amount for assessment activities will be determined by City staff. The sub-grant funding amount for remediation activities will be determined by City staff and the BAB based on the site’s redevelopment plan and the return on investment the redevelopment will have on the community. Winning projects will be awarded throughout the city limits with special consideration given to those projects located in an area of town that will have an environmental justice benefit and provide an economic benefit to the disadvantaged members of the community. 3.2 EPA Requirements The following eligible entities, as defined by the EPA, are permitted to apply for a sub-grant through the City’s RLF program: • Land Clearance Authority or another quasi-governmental entity that operates under the supervision and control of, or as an agent of, a General-Purpose Unit of Local Government. • Government Entity Created by State Legislature. • General Purpose Units of Local Government. • Redevelopment Agency that is chartered or otherwise sanctioned by a state. • Nonprofit organization described in section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. • Limited liability corporation in which all managing members are 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations or limited liability corporations whose sole members are 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations. • Limited partnership in which all general partners are 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations or limited corporations whose sole members are 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations. • Qualified community development entity as defined in section 45D(c)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Eligible entities applying for a sub-grant for cleanup of a property through this program must own the property, and not be responsible for site contamination. Sub-grant recipients also must demonstrate compliance with the EPA Rule on All Appropriate Inquiries (Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 312). As a part of this program, the City is entitled to directly fund assessments that support redevelopment efforts for otherwise ineligible entities (individuals, sole proprietorships, for-profit corporations, for-profit limited liability corporations, for-profit limited partnerships and for-profit partnerships). Remedial activities may not be directly funded by the City for any property owner if the site is deemed ineligible for funding. The City will utilize the requirements set up by the EPA to determine if sites are eligible for brownfields grant funding under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA) § 104(k). The City will ensure that the “retained program income” is used on a property that is a brownfield site as defined at CERCLA § 101(39) and in accordance with Section IV.C. All assessment and cleanup work funded with program income will be RLF Final Expenditures & Closeout Plan ■ Clearwater, Florida February 18, 2021 ■ US EPA Cooperative Agreement No. BF-98487299 7 performed in accordance with state or tribal environmental rules and regulations and be protective of human health and the environment. The City will continue to perform community involvement activities to solicit input from local communities, these outreach activities may take place with potential environmental justice communities, communities with a health risk related to exposure to hazardous waste or other public health concerns, economically disadvantaged or remote areas. Program income shall not be used to assess or clean up a site at which the City or the subrecipient is potentially liable under CERCLA § 107 unless they qualify for a limitation or defense to liability under CERCLA. The City and subrecipient must make and retain a certification to that effect as part of the records for the project. If asserting a limitation or defense to liability, the subrecipient must state the basis for that assertion. When using program income for petroleum-contaminated brownfield sites, the City or subrecipient shall certify that they are not a viable responsible party or potentially liable for the petroleum contamination at the site and retain a certification to that effect as part of the sub-grant records. The City may consult with EPA for assistance with this matter. The City will use the RLF program to fund the following brownfield activities: • Phase I Environmental Site Assessments at brownfield sites performed in accordance with EPA All Appropriate Inquiries Final Rule or ASTM E1527-13 (or the most current version); • Phase II Environmental Site Assessments and cleanup planning activities at brownfield sites; • Planning for the assessment, cleanup and re-use of brownfield sites; • Cleanup/remediation activities of eligible properties; • Entering a property into the State Brownfields program; • Outreach and distribution of materials and programmatic costs to manage and oversee the work being performed; and • Programmatic support including required EPA reporting, ACREs database maintenance, meeting preparation and attendance, and final closeout documentation. 3.3 Budget The City currently has $470,911 available in the sub-grant program for the assessment and remediation of brownfield properties throughout the city limits. Upon CRA Board and Council approval, the outstanding CRA loan totaling $325,440 will be repaid less 30% discount for a net repayment of $227,808, therefore total funds will be $698,719. Funds will be utilized to further redevelopment initiatives by focusing on projects that will provide a direct economic benefit to the City with priority given to projects that primarily benefit the City’s sensitive populations suffering from environmental justice issues. RLF Final Expenditures & Closeout Plan ■ Clearwater, Florida February 18, 2021 ■ US EPA Cooperative Agreement No. BF-98487299 8 Cost estimates for project activities are provided below and are based on past brownfield projects as determined by local market standards with contractual hourly rates based on the skills needed for the specific tasks: • Phase I ESAs $3,000 each • Generic QAPP $4,500 • Phase II ESAs including SS-QAPP at $23,000 each • ABCAs $6,500 each • Brownfield Site Rehabilitation Agreements $5,000 • Cleanup activities will vary based on project needs 3.4 Outreach City Staff will work with the sub-grantee recipient and the community to share information on all brownfield redevelopment throughout the city limits. To encourage entities to apply for the RLF Brownfield sub-grant awards, the City will collaborate with the following project liaisons to promote and encourage participation in efforts to further redevelopment: Name Contact Florida Gulfcoast Commercial Association of Realtors Sue Fern, sue@fernmanagement.com NAIOP Kelsey Bokor, kelsey@naioptb.org ULI Siobhan O’Kane, siobhan.okane@uli.org Planned outreach events utilizing the partnerships with the local liaison organizations include lunch and learn education events featuring information on the RLF sub-grant program, application process, and federal and state brownfield programs. Currently, community and City Council meetings are held in-person while observing social distancing guidelines. Information regarding this program will be announced during these meetings, posted on the City’s website and announced through press releases. The City will update the community throughout the life of the RLF sub-grant program on the funding availability and project outcomes until all funds have been expended via the city’s website and social media platforms (Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube), as well as through city-news and calendar-announcement emails, to which they will encourage residents to subscribe. The City staff will provide information during the regularly scheduled City Council meetings, which are broadcasted on C-View TV, the City of Clearwater’s television channel that is available to residents through local cable providers and online streaming. In addition, the City will develop informational handouts and marketing materials explaining the sub- grant application process and acceptable funding activities. RLF Final Expenditures & Closeout Plan ■ Clearwater, Florida February 18, 2021 ■ US EPA Cooperative Agreement No. BF-98487299 9 3.5 Assessment 3.5.1 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment All Phase I site characterizations and assessments conducted with the sub-grant funding will be performed in accordance with EPA's standard for all appropriate inquiries. All Phase I site characterizations and assessments will be conducted following the practices in ASTM standard E1527-13 “Standard Practices for Environmental Site Assessment: Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Process,” or EPA's All Appropriate Inquiries Final Rule. The “All Appropriate Inquiries Rule: Reporting Requirements Checklist for Assessment Grant Recipients”, (Publication Number: EPA 560-R-11-030), for each Phase I ESA conducted with sub-grant funds will be completed and signed. The reporting requirements for “All Appropriate Inquires” can be found at: https://www.epa.gov/brownfields/brownfields-all-appropriate-inquiries-rule-reporting- requirements-checklist-assessment. 3.5.2 Phase II Environmental Site Assessment & Supplemental Assessment Once it has been determined that a property/site is eligible, Phase II ESA activities can begin. The following are specific activities that will be performed to complete this task. 1. Quality Assurance Project Plans (QAPPs): A Generic Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP) document will be developed. Upon successful completion of a Phase I ESA which will need a subsequent Phase II ESA including the Site-Specific Quality Assurance Project Plan in accordance with EPA Region 4’s Instructions for the Preparation of Quality Assurance Project Plans for EPA Brownfields-Funded Projects in the Southeast. 2. Health & Safety Plans: An OSHA-compliant Health and Safety Plan (HASP) will be prepared by the environmental consultant and a copy will be placed in the sub-grant file. EPA approval of the HASP is not required. 3.6 Reuse/Remediation Planning Remediation activities will include calculating remediation costs and determining site appropriate remediation and/or reuse plans to reduce health/environmental risks for selected sites. Working with the community and FDEP, the City will establish a unified vision and set goal for reuse planning. The Brownfield Program Manager coupled with the environmental consultant will prepare and secure approvals for the Analysis of Brownfields Cleanup Alternatives (ABCAs) based on the data collected and data derived from the environmental assessments completed for the sites tested. The report will be communicated to the public and supplied to the state brownfields office for feedback prior to final approval. The ABCAs will serve as the framework for remedial action plans. RLF Final Expenditures & Closeout Plan ■ Clearwater, Florida February 18, 2021 ■ US EPA Cooperative Agreement No. BF-98487299 10 A. ABCA An ABCA briefly summarizes: • Information about the site and contamination issues, cleanup standards, applicable laws, cleanup alternatives considered, and the proposed cleanup. • It will include information on the cleanup effectiveness, the ability of the subrecipient to implement each alternative, the cost of each proposed cleanup alternative and an analysis of the reasonableness of the various cleanup alternatives considered including the one chosen. B. Institutional Controls (ICs) The City and the environmental consultant will consider the use of Institutional Controls (IC), as well as engineering controls, as part of the Analysis of Brownfield Cleanup Alternatives. The team will work closely with the State for the approvals. 3.7 Community Involvement Plan for Cleanup Projects The sub-grant recipient and their contractor will develop a Community Involvement Plan (CIP) for cleanup projects with the purpose to describe the planned community engagement activities, schedule, project background, and key players, which will be made available for review at the City’s Economic Development and Housing Department. The plan will describe the community and appropriate methods of seeking input, methods of communicating progress and education/information sharing for the community. 3.8 Cleanup Activities For sub-grant awards focusing on cleanup activities, the City will require an ABCA to describe cleanup alternatives. Through this detailed analysis the City will ensure the adequacy of the cleanups while protecting human health and the environment as it is implemented by protecting all nearby populations, including sensitive populations throughout the city limits from contaminants during cleanup work conducted on brownfield sites. Activities include implementing procedures necessary to mitigate any potential exposure from the contamination. All cleanup activities will be encouraged to meet the following requirements: 1. Greener Cleanups The City will encourage sub-grant recipients to take action to ensure a greener cleanup. Assessing and cleaning up contaminated land protects human health and the environment and enables communities to pursue future beneficial reuse of these properties. Cleaning up sites can be viewed as “green” from the perspective of the cleanup improving environmental and public health conditions. However, cleanup activities use energy, water, and other material resources to achieve cleanup objectives. The City will encourage applicants to incorporate green practices such as restricted engine idling and others identified in EPA resources to help alleviate the environmental footprint of cleanup actions. Incorporation of green practices will also be a consideration in the procurement of cleanup contractors. RLF Final Expenditures & Closeout Plan ■ Clearwater, Florida February 18, 2021 ■ US EPA Cooperative Agreement No. BF-98487299 11 2. Completion of Cleanup Activities The City will ensure that the successful completion of the cleanup is properly documented for any sub-grant awards used for cleanup/remediation of a brownfield site and will be done through a final report from the City’s qualified environmental professional. This documentation will be included as part of the administrative record. In the event of an incomplete cleanup, the City will ensure that the site is secure and notify FDEP to ensure an orderly transition should additional activities become necessary. 3.9 Sub-grant Project Completion Once a project is complete, the City will work with the subrecipient to document and close out the project. The sub-grant recipient will be required to provide a summary of the final accomplishments (outcomes, outputs, and other leveraged resources) during the entire grant project period to the City as an update to the projected information/deliverables given on their original application. 3.9.1 Measuring Results The City will document the project outcomes and outputs which can include the following: Outputs: • Number of community meetings held • Number of advisory committee meetings held • Number of ABCAs completed • Number of brownfield sites identified • Number of Phase I ESAs completed • Number of Phase II ESAs completed Outcomes: • Number of acres of land assessed • Number of jobs created/retained • Amount of tax revenue generated • Number of acres of property remediated • Amount of leveraged funding (private and public) • Value of capital investment for redevelopment • Acres of parks and greenspace preserved and created 3.9.2 ACRES Property specific information, including the property address and cleanup completions, will be entered electronically in EPA’s Assessment, Cleanup and Redevelopment Exchange System (ACRES) database at http://www.epa.gov/acres by the City and their consultant. ACRES will be updated for each property when the following occur: • All assessment activities and environmental findings have taken place at the site; • Completion of cleanup/remediation activities; • Funds are leveraged and/or jobs created (quantities); RLF Final Expenditures & Closeout Plan ■ Clearwater, Florida February 18, 2021 ■ US EPA Cooperative Agreement No. BF-98487299 12 • Completion of the Project Period (or Final Report); and • As significant events occur at the site, but not later than the end of the quarter in which the event occurred. 4.0 RLF PROGRAM CLOSEOUT COMPLETION Once all funds have been expended through the City’s sub-grant process, the City will notify the EPA of their intent to formally submit an RLF program report. Within 90 days of all funds being expended, the following information will be provided to the EPA: 1. Final Report a.

(consent) SUMMARY: On October 14, 2020, City Council granted approval of an Agreement with University of North Florida Training and Service Institute (University) for phase 8 of the state HVE program to continue its grant-funded pedestrian and bicycle safety project with Clearwater Police Department (CPD). CPD has conducted seven grant-funded comprehensive enforcement/education projects since March 2014 aimed at changing the behavior of all who use Clearwater’s roadways - pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorists. The 2020 Agreement provided funding for an eighth round of funding for this very successful project which is currently underway. The University extended an invitation to CPD to request an additional $30,000 in funding in order to expand the current project. The University requested and received approval from the Florida Department of Transportation to amend the agreement approved by Council on October 14, 2020, to reflect the additional allocation of $30,000, which increases the total contract amount from $26,882 to $56,882. The funds will be utilized by CPD to conduct additional HVE details at the intersections selected and approved by the University based on crash data. The project period will end on or before May 14, 2021. There will be no direct adverse impact to the Police Department annual operating budget nor is there a required match. APPROPRIATION CODE AND AMOUNT: A first quarter budget amendment will reflect a budget increase of $30,000 in grant revenue in special program G2106, Pedestrian/Bicycle Safety Grant 2021, to account for the additional grant revenues and expenditures.

THIS AGREEMENT, entered into this day of , year of 2021, by and between the STATE OF FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION, hereinafter referred to as "FDOT”, and CITY OF CLEARWATER, hereinafter referred to as the "MAINTAINING AGENCY"; WITNESSETH: WHEREAS, FDOT is authorized under Sections 334.044 and 335.055, Florida Statutes, to enter into this Agreement, and the MAINTAINING AGENCY has the authority to enter into this Agreement and to undertake the maintenance and operation of lighting on the State Highway System; and WHEREAS, the MAINTAINING AGENCY has authorized its undersigned officers to enter into and execute this Agreement; WHEREAS, FDOT has identified sites where lighting and/or lighting systems, hereinafter referred to as “Facilities”, are located on the State Highway System within the jurisdictional boundaries of the MAINTAINING AGENCY. A list of the Facilities is included as Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein. WHEREAS, the MAINTAINING AGENCY agrees to maintain the Facilities as further set forth herein. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein, FDOT and the MAINTAINING AGENCY hereby agree as follows: 1. Maintenance of Facilities a. The MAINTAINING AGENCY shall maintain the Facilities listed in Exhibit A. The Facilities may include lighting for roadways, as well as park and ride, pedestrian overpasses, and recreational areas owned by or located on the property of FDOT. The Facilities shall not include lighting located in weigh stations, rest areas, or on Interstate highways. The location and type of lighting to be maintained pursuant to this Agreement is set forth in Exhibit A. Any changes or modifications to Exhibit A must be in writing and signed by both FDOT and the MAINTAINING AGENCY. Any Facilities added to Exhibit A during the FDOT’s fiscal year shall be maintained and operated by the MAINTAINING AGENCY upon the FDOT’s final acceptance of installation of any new lighting and/or lighting systems. Prior to the start of each new fiscal year, the MAINTAINING AGENCY and FDOT shall amend Exhibit A to reflect any changes to the Facilities, including addition, removal, or change in lighting type maintained pursuant to this Agreement. The MAINTAINING AGENCY will be compensated for Facilities added to Exhibit A by amendment of this Agreement in the FDOT’s fiscal year occurring after the lighting and/or lighting systems are installed and final acceptance of such installation is given by FDOT. In the event that no change is made to the previous year’s Exhibit A, a certification from the MAINTAINING AGENCY shall be provided to FDOT certifying that no change has been made to Exhibit A during FDOT’s previous fiscal year. Unless stated otherwise, all references to fiscal years within this agreement refer to FDOT’s fiscal year, beginning July 1st and ending June 30th. b. In maintaining the Facilities, the MAINTAINING AGENCY shall perform all activities necessary to keep the Facilities fully operating, properly functioning, with a minimum of 90% of the lights burning for any lighting type (e.g., high mast, standard, underdeck, and sign) or roadway system at all times in accordance with the original design thereof, whether necessitated by normal wear and tear, accidental or intentional damage, or acts of nature. Required maintenance includes, but is not limited to, providing electrical power and paying all charges associated therewith, routine inspection and testing, preventative maintenance, emergency maintenance, replacement of any component parts of the Facilities (including the poles and any and all other component parts installed as part of the Facilities), and locating (both vertically and horizontally) the Facilities. All repairs or replacement will be in kind unless a variance is approved in writing by FDOT. 375-020-52 MAINTENANCE OGC – 03/20 Page 2 of 8 c. All maintenance must be in accordance with the provisions of the following: (1) Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices; and (2) All other applicable local, state, or federal laws, rules, resolutions, or ordinances, and FDOT procedures. d. For lighting installed as part of a FDOT project, the MAINTAINING AGENCY’s obligation to maintain the Facility commences upon the MAINTAINING AGENCY’s receipt of notification from FDOT that FDOT has formally accepted the project, except for the obligation to provide for electrical power, which obligation to provide for electrical power commences at such time as the lighting system is ready to be energized; provided, however, that the MAINTAINING AGENCY is not required to perform any activities which are the responsibilities of FDOT’s contractor. Prior to acceptance by FDOT, the MAINTAINING AGENCY shall have the opportunity to inspect and request modifications/corrections to the installation(s). FDOT agrees to make modifications/corrections prior to acceptance so long as the modifications/corrections comply with the installation contract documents and specifications. e. The term for this Agreement is seven (7) years. Either party may terminate this Agreement by a notice of termination. The notice of termination must be in writing. Should the MAINTAINING AGENCY choose to terminate the Agreement, the MAINTAINING AGENCY shall provide a minimum notice period of two (2) fiscal years prior to the effective date of termination and the notice shall be endorsed by the elected body (County Commission, City Council, or local agency governing body) under which the Agency operates. The effective date of the termination will coincide with the end of the FDOT’s fiscal year of June 30th following the two-year notice. The termination of this Agreement will not terminate maintenance responsibilities for lighting owned by the MAINTAINING AGENCY. Maintenance obligations for lights owned by the MAINTAINING AGENCY will remain the responsibility of the MAINTAINING AGENCY. Nor does termination of this Agreement operate to relieve the MAINTAINING AGENCY of any maintenance obligations contained in other agreements. Maintenance of lights governed by a separate maintenance agreement will continue per the terms of that separate maintenance agreement. 2.

Osceola Avenue Clearwater, FL 33755 File Number: ID#21-8829 Agenda Date: 3/4/2021 Status: Consent AgendaVersion: 1 File Type: Action ItemIn Control: Engineering Department Agenda Number: 7.4 SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION: Accept a Sovereignty Submerged Lands Easement from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, Bureau of Public Lands across Clearwater Harbor and the Intracoastal Waterway for the maintenance of a subaqueous potable water main and force main as part of Memorial Causeway Subaqueous Pipelines Project and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent) SUMMARY: The Memorial Causeway Subaqueous Pipelines Project (14-0041-UT) installed a 24-inch replacement sanitary sewer force main across Clearwater Harbor from Bayway Blvd. to State Road 60 and a 20-inch water main across the Intracoastal Waterway from the Memorial Causeway to Drew Street. City Council accepted a 25-ft. Submerged Lands easement from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), Bureau of Public Lands on August 17, 2017 for the construction, installation, and maintenance of the proposed subaqueous mains, but the FDEP never fully executed the original easement. This revised 25-ft. submerged lands easement is based on the “as built” location of the subaqueous sanitary sewer force main across Clearwater Harbor from Bayway Blvd. to State Road 60, which slightly altered the legal description of the original easement location. All other items in this revised easement remain unchanged. Accepting this easement authorizes the City of Clearwater to maintain its subaqueous force mains across Clearwater Harbor Sovereignty Submerged Lands. Staff recommends acceptance of the easement.

Osceola Avenue Clearwater, FL 33755 File Number: ID#21-8817 Agenda Date: 3/4/2021 Status: Consent AgendaVersion: 1 File Type: Action ItemIn Control: Public Utilities Agenda Number: 7.5 SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION: Authorize an annual increase to contract no. 900634 to T. Wayne Hill Trucking, Inc of Bartow, FL, for biosolids disposal services in an annual amount of $380,000 for a new not to exceed total of $970,000 for the remainder of this term with one renewal option and authorize the appropriate officials to execute same. (consent) SUMMARY: The City of Clearwater’s Water Reclamation Facilities (WRF) produce a residual product (biosolids) that requires hauling and disposal. This increase is required to accommodate the increase in cost for Sludge hauling and disposal due to regulatory changes. The Procurement Division issued Invitation to Bid (ITB) #34-19, Biosolids Management Services on June 12, 2019 and four responsive bids were received. T. Wayne Hill Trucking, Inc. was the lowest responsive, responsible bidder for Base Bid Services at $25.97/wet ton for stabilized biosolids cake removal and disposal and $0.0300/gallon for liquid sludge transport via land application method. In an effort to accommodate other means of disposal, ITB #34-19 included alternate bid items to be used if an issue arose that prevented the primary method of disposal. T. Wayne Hill Trucking, Inc was the lowest responsive, responsible bidder for all alternate bid items as well. In the spring of 2020, the Florida Legislature passed Senate Bill 712 which significantly constrains land application of Biosolids in the state. Land application of Biosolids was the disposal method specified in the base bid of this contract. On March 23, 2020, T. Wayne Hill Trucking, Inc. transitioned to alternate bid item 2A Residuals Management Facility [RMF] disposal option of ITB #34-19 as T. Wayne Hill Trucking, Inc. was unable to secure suitable land application sites. The alternative bid unit price of $55.87 per ton for sludge disposal shall continue to be used, provided the base bid services remain infeasible. The contractor accepts full responsibility and liability for the hauling and disposal of biosolids from the points of loading from the source facility, in accordance with Chapter 62-640, F.A.C. and shall be responsible to comply with existing Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) residuals treatment and disposal regulations, all other applicable federal, state and local regulations and any changes made to these regulations during the contract period. The original contract became effective on September 1, 2019, for an initial one-year period with two one-year renewal terms available to the City. Renewal Terms allow for cost increases based on the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U). Renewal prices shall be Page 1 City of Clearwater Printed on 3/4/2021 File Number: ID#21-8817 firm for the respective annual term.

DETAILED SPECIFICATIONS RO PLANT CARTRIDGE FILTERS 16 ITB #12-21 1. INTRODUCTION. The City of Clearwater (City) is located on the West Coast of Florida in the Tampa Bay region. It is the third largest city in the region with an estimated population of nearly 118,017 residents. The City of Clearwater is also a major tourist destination – Clearwater Beach was rated #1 U.S. Beach by TripAdvisor’s Traveler’s Choice Awards in 2018 and 2019 and is consistently ranked as one of the top beaches in the world. The City of Clearwater is home to the Philadelphia Phillies Spring Training and Clearwater Threshers Minor League Baseball, as well as hosting several sports tournaments through the year that attract visitors from across the country. Clearwater is home to Winter the Dolphin and the Clearwater Marine Aquarium. Winter’s story made it all the way to Hollywood in the motion pictures “Dolphin Tale” and “Dolphin Tale 2”, both filmed here in Clearwater. 2. BACKGROUND. The City of Clearwater’s Public Utilities Department is the owner and operator of two (2) reverse osmosis water treatment plants that are equipped with cartridge filter pretreatment.

Letter of transmittal February 11, 2021 Ms. Lori Vogel, CPPB Procurement Manager City of Clearwater PO Box 4748 Clearwater, FL 33758-4748 Dear Ms. Vogel; Baker Tilly US, LLP (Baker Tilly) appreciates the opportunity to submit the following proposal for executive recruitment services to the City of Clearwater (the City) to help you identify your next City Manager. We believe that our record of successfully placing qualified and very accomplished professionals, along with our extensive experience providing executive recruitment services to cities, counties and other public-sector and nonprofit organizations nationwide will be beneficial for your recruitment and allow us to find candidates possessing the leadership traits, skills, experience and overall competence you desire for your organization. We know that you have options when it comes to selecting a recruitment firm. However, we believe that our unique approach, highly regarded customer service practices, and our record of identifying and recruiting top level executives in similar roles, sets us apart from our competitors. Additionally, we offer the following unique features: − Commitment to a successful recruitment is guaranteed: Baker Tilly will be meticulous and responsive to you - the client - and with prospective applicants using an approach of “doing whatever it takes to get the job done right!” Please notice our “Triple Guarantee” referenced in this proposal. − Focused strategy for success: Baker Tilly will conduct a comprehensive, national search to identify exceptional candidates with a proven record of strong leadership and management. Baker Tilly recommends advertising and recruiting nationally, but will also focus on making contact with city management professionals that are currently working in the mid-Atlantic and Southeastern states believing that a regional focus can sometimes bring in candidates more knowledgeable about the nuances of working in Florida and this part of the Country. − Talented and experienced recruitment consultants: Baker Tilly’s recruitment team is outstanding! Baker Tilly has provided executive recruitment and human resources related services to local governments for more than 30 years. Our team has had tremendous success working on recruitments throughout the country and we encourage you to contact our references. The professional experience of our consultants includes three former city managers/administrators, a former human resources director, police chief and a former superintendent of schools. The result – a cohesive and highly experienced consultant team that possesses a thorough and detailed understanding of the leadership, experience, training and certifications required for this position, which ultimately benefits Clearwater with a more targeted and qualified pool of candidates. − Video Interviews to screen semi-finalists: Baker Tilly will use an online video interview process to assist the Mayor and City Council in narrowing down semi-finalists to a smaller group of finalists as part of the all- inclusive fee. This will assist the Mayor and City Council in screening candidates, and could possibly reduce costs by eliminating unnecessary travel expenses for on-site interviews. − Leadership assessment of finalists: Baker Tilly will conduct a strengths assessment and management/leadership style testing, which some may refer to as “personality and behavioral testing.” This assessment is completed online by the finalists prior to interviews and determines if a candidate’s management style matches the profile created by the City in an effort to find the “ideal” candidate and determine whether each candidate is a good fit for Clearwater and the community. − Comprehensive vetting of finalists (includes social media search): Baker Tilly’s multiple layered vetting process of screening candidates provides a qualified pool of individuals to consider with not only the skills 1. Letter of transmittal City of Clearwater, Florida Page | 2 and experience desired, but most importantly, a leadership and management style that best fits the City and community. The screening process includes detailed candidate questionnaires, video interviews, leadership and strengths assessment, a comprehensive candidate background review, comprehensive report on each candidate’s media and on-line presence, and a comprehensive reference report on all finalists prior to interviews occurring. (Please Note: Baker Tilly must conduct these background checks for the “Triple Guarantee” to remain in effect). − Commitment to pursue a diverse pool of candidates: Baker Tilly will take responsibility for ensuring diversity in our candidate pools. In your recruitment, we will use our established networks to make direct and personal contact with prospective minority and female candidates and encourage them to consider an opportunity with the City of Clearwater. − Online application and communication system: We utilize a proprietary online application system exclusively licensed to facilitate talent management for our clients. The system has been designed to customize applicant flow and tracking, allowing for ease of communication with applicants. Finding candidates with the desired levels of experience and specific knowledge of local government management trends can sometimes be challenging. Of equal importance, we want to ensure that your next City Manager is a “great fit” for the City of Clearwater and the community. Our professional background and many years of experience in recruiting local government managers will provide you valuable insight into finding and selecting the best candidate. We understand the City is looking for a timely, effective, efficient, responsive, well-managed and thorough search process to recruit and identify highly qualified candidates for its next City Manager. Baker Tilly will work with the City to understand the desired qualities and professional capabilities that are most important to your organization for this recruitment. This information helps us present the City of Clearwater and the vacancy to well-regarded candidates, emphasizing the opportunities for leadership and professional growth as well as presenting the City of Clearwater as a vibrant and thriving community in which to live. Because of the pandemic we are facing, we will work closely with the City Council to develop processes for successfully completing all the tasks and initiatives typically involved in the recruitment process for a city manager. This will be done by creatively working with the technology tools we currently utilize, providing you access to information you need to make decisions, along with the capability to utilize video conferencing to conduct meetings, for interviews of candidates, etc. The proposed project team leader for your recruitment is Art Davis in our Kansas City location. Art will be able to provide on-site support and assistance, if requested, when the time comes to organize final on-site interviews. We recognize that there is significant competition for experienced local government managers today. For this reason, we work with you to develop a recruitment strategy that includes an aggressive marketing, recruiting and candidate outreach campaign. As you know, a successful recruitment often depends upon the ability to reach successful executives who may not necessarily be in search of new employment opportunities. Thus, we will use existing resources to inform and encourage qualified professionals to apply for this opportunity and believe that these efforts are critical to ensuring the City receives a qualified and diverse candidate pool. We take pride in our ability to provide the City Council with comprehensive information about each candidate we present, expanding beyond applications and resumes, to better understand their professional experience, the leadership and management style they will bring to your organization, and their motivation for pursuing this career opportunity. We also assist you in the preparation of interview questions, interview day scheduling, planning and structuring as needed. This proposal details our approach, expertise, references and pricing for this executive recruitment. We would consider it a professional privilege to provide these services to the City of Clearwater. Very truly yours, BAKER TILLY US, LLP Chuck Rohre, Firm Director Art Davis, Director Authorized Representative Project Team Leader M: +1 (214) 608 7477 M: +1 (816) 868 7042 E: chuck.rohre@bakertilly.com E: art.davis@bakertilly.com City of Clearwater, Florida Page | 3 2.

Why Baker Tilly is ideally suited to serve Clearwater There are many reasons Baker Tilly has distinguished itself from peers in public sector executive recruitment. – We are experienced and passionate about what we do.

The Baker Tilly team has recruited and placed more than 1,400 executive-level positions within cities, counties, school districts and public and not-for-profit organizations since 2000. – We are focused on exceeding your expectations. We believe in local government and want to assist the City of Clearwater organization in building a great team. We 2. Demonstrated experience of firm and project personnel City of Clearwater, Florida Page | 4 want your organization to hire us again based on the success we achieve the first time we work together. – We believe that “ethical business practices” are a catalyst for success. These practices include operating with transparency, responsiveness and sensitivity to the culture of your organization while pursuing an unrelenting commitment to high quality and professional services. – We believe in diversity. Our corporate core values and work environment reflect our broader social aspirations for a diverse workforce, equal opportunity and cross-cultural respect. We take responsibility for diversity in our organization, our recruitment strategy and our candidate pools. We are corporate members of the National Forum for Black Public Administrators (NFBPA) and the Hispanic Network and are on their National Corporate Advisory Council. – We conduct a timely, high-quality recruitment that is within budget. For an all-inclusive, not-to-exceed professional fee that includes the cost of professional services by the project team leader, the project support staff and all project related expenses such as advertising, preparation of a recruitment brochure, background, reference and academic verification checks and travel expenses for up to three on-site visits. We work with you to establish a timeline, respond to the City’s needs and to unexpected circumstances that may develop during the course of a recruitment in order to expedite the recruitment, but not at the expense of finding high quality candidates for the City of Clearwater. – We utilize the latest technologies that uniquely sets us apart. Technology plays an important role in the Baker Tilly executive recruitment process. From our proprietary video interview system and our management/leadership style assessment analysis, to our proprietary online application system, we efficiently manage candidate information and provide the City with unique information about each candidate’s leadership and management style and ability to respond extemporaneously to video questions. – We offer a “Triple Guarantee” that commits Baker Tilly to the City’s success. – We remain focused to assist with your executive recruitment until you make an appointment – We guarantee your executive recruitment for 12 months against termination or resignation for any reason – or we come back to fill the City Manager position for no additional professional fee – We will not directly solicit any candidates selected under this contract for another position while the candidate is employed with your organization Benefits to Clearwater Selecting Baker Tilly to conduct your executive recruitment provides you with the following benefits: − Comprehensive and structured process: Our process is comprehensive and seamless, reflecting our years of interaction with local government employers and prospective candidates. − Transparency: Baker Tilly comes to the City without having any preconceived notions or expectations about the Clearwater and prospective candidates. The Baker Tilly team works closely with the City to make sure the process is transparent. − Candidate recruitment: Baker Tilly actively recruits qualified candidates, drawing from our extensive personal and professional connections with capable individuals 2. Demonstrated experience of firm and project personnel City of Clearwater, Florida Page | 5 around the state, region and nation and assuring the City of its access to established managers and rising stars.

Our process keeps decision makers fully advised and informed of all aspects of the process without requiring them to expend large amounts of time on the recruitment process or to put aside other pressing issues facing the City. − Minimize staff disruption: Baker Tilly’s search process also minimizes disruptions to City staff, some of whom may have additional duties in this time of transition. Because conducting a thorough recruitment can be time-consuming, Baker Tilly’s involvement allows staff to stay focused on their primary and assigned functions. − Thorough evaluation of candidates: The City of Clearwater seeks a City Manager of sound professional and personal character. Baker Tilly’s process includes a thorough evaluation of the final candidates, including detailed information from references and a careful review of background records. a.

Anticipated support from the City of Clearwater Baker Tilly requests a commitment by the Mayor and City Council to meet with the recruitment project team leader during the initial and subsequent visits. Baker Tilly would request that the City designate a staff member to serve as our primary point of contact throughout the recruitment. We will ask this person to provide requested information, arrange meetings and serve as the point of contact for progress reporting, provide information needed for each recruitment, such as salary and benefits information, and respond to questions as needed. Also, as part of the interview process, we recommend that department heads be available to meet with finalists and that key personnel be available to assist in providing a tour of the community. The City would be responsible for organizing on-site interview process, but always with best practice suggestions provided by the recruitment project team leader, if requested. As identified in Section 5 - Cost of Consulting Services the City would be responsible for all travel related expenses incurred by candidates for on-site interviews and would not be the responsibility of Baker Tilly and should be handled directly by the City. This recruitment process is considered a turn-key process to identify qualified and outstanding City Manager candidates for the City of Clearwater. Any other responsibilities relating to both Baker Tilly and the City of Clearwater, such as submittal of invoices, payment terms and all other anticipated interactions are detailed in various sections of this Proposal. City of Clearwater, Florida Page | 18 3. Project methodology, approach and timeline a. Approach to performing the contracted work The recruitment will be national and inclusive in nature, with a candidate pool of diverse, experienced and talented individuals. Recruitment solutions during the Covid-19 Pandemic In response to the COVID-19 Pandemic, the Baker Tilly executive recruitment team leader will work closely with the Clearwater designated point of contact to develop alternative methods to complete all aspects of our established search processes using existing technologies and ensure the overall safety of all involved, which may include virtual or telephonic meetings, interviews, or conversations. As such, we will creatively collaborate with your organization to provide you with access to critical information you may need to make your hiring decisions. Additionally, we can utilize our capability for video conferencing during meetings, candidate interviews, etc. When the time arrives for the City Council to interview candidates, we may encourage and support the steps established or recommended by local, state or federal guidelines, public health and medical professionals, including social distancing guidelines and protocols. Baker Tilly has successfully organized several successful virtual and on-site interview processes following the prescribed social distancing protocols and best practices. As such, Art Davis is able to provide corresponding on-site support and assistance, if requested. Remote work For Baker Tilly, the safety of our people is paramount. We are committed to playing our part in containing COVID-19 by practicing responsible social distancing. As of this writing, our firm is directing all professionals work remotely. Because Clearwater expects and deserves tailored, personalized service, we recognize that this policy may cause concern. Please understand that we are prepared to deliver an exceptional service experience remotely if necessary. The City’s engagement team has various tools enabling them to assist you from any location. Baker Tilly professionals each receive their own laptop and remote access credentials to connect to our internal network from outside the office. When Baker Tilly and the City are not able to meet in person, we have web conferencing software – including Zoom, WebEx and Microsoft Teams – to quickly set up online meetings. 3. Project methodology, approach and timeline City of Clearwater, Florida Page | 19 Additionally, we use Huddle, a secure cloud collaboration software, to work together anywhere, anytime and on any device. Huddle provides a platform for the City and Baker Tilly to come together, share files, assign tasks, and track activity in a secure environment. Using Huddle as a central hub of activity means we all spend less time organizing documents, chasing approvals and searching through email – and more time achieving tangible results. The platform also enables real-time communication, meaning the status of your engagement will always be available. We also use Microsoft Teams, which facilitates easier communication and project management. Proposed solution to meet Clearwater’s needs The recruitment will be conducted out of our Kansas City, Missouri and Plano, Texas offices. Art Davis will serve as the project team leader. Our proven process includes five major tasks: 1. Recruitment brochure development and advertising – We schedule and meet with your City’s elected officials, appointed management team members and key stakeholders, as requested, to understand your desired needs, strategic directions, overall candidate expectations and to develop a candidate profile 2. Execution of recruitment strategy and identification of quality candidates – Using the approved profile, we develop a colorful, appealing brochure and embark on a national or regional targeted recruitment campaign – Additionally, we simultaneously launch a direct applicant outreach campaign targeting eligible prospects identified via our extensive searchable applicant database – Using our proprietary applicant tracking system, we communicate and update applicants on key processes and corresponding search progress 3. Screening of applications, recommendation of semi-finalists and selection of finalists – Once we identify the most promising applicants, we ask them to complete our due diligence questionnaire and a candidate questionnaire while the project team conducts a comprehensive web and social media scan to elicit information that could be relevant to employment – These applicants also complete a recorded, one-way video interview of selected questions designed to secure a different perspective on the applicant’s overall qualifications – We provide you with a Semi-Finalists Report of the top candidates, which includes resumes, cover letters and due diligence questionnaire responses – Selected finalists complete a management and leadership style and strengths assessment (personality and behavior analysis) to provide us with important information about their styles, temperament, preference, etc. 4. Conducting background checks (criminal, civil, credit and driving record), reference checks and academic verifications – Background records checks and academic verification – References 5. Final interview process – Once your City Council identifies its top 3-5 finalists, we work with you and the finalists to coordinate all aspects of the interview process – Employment offer – assistance and feedback 3. Project methodology, approach and timeline City of Clearwater, Florida Page | 20 Recruitment approach Task I. Recruitment brochure development and advertising The development of a comprehensive recruitment brochure that includes a profile of the ideal candidate is an important first step in your recruitment process. This profile includes the required academic training, professional experience, leadership, management and personal characteristics related to the success of the candidate in the position of City Manager. The recruitment brochure will also include a profile that captures the essence of the City of Clearwater as a highly attractive venue for the successful candidate to live and work. To prepare the recruitment brochure, the project team leader will come on site to meet with the Mayor, City Council and designated staff to discuss the required background, professional experience, and management and leadership characteristics for your City Manager. We meet individually (or collectively depending upon your preference) with the Mayor and City Council to broaden our understanding of the position’s leadership and management requirements, current issues, your strategic priorities and your expectations for the City Manager. [See example of a recruitment brochure in Appendix I.] Information obtained from these meetings, coupled with our review of the job description and other City documents, is used to prepare a position and candidate profile. The completed profile will be approved by the Mayor and City Council before recruitment begins. The position and candidate profile will be central to our recruitment strategy and outreach to potential candidates. The project team will also work with the City of Clearwater to develop an advertising and marketing strategy to notify potential candidates about the vacancy and conduct an open recruitment that encourages applications from a talented and diverse pool of candidates. Our team will place ads in appropriate professional publications, websites and local print media, if required, and coordinate with City staff to include information about the search on the City’s social media platforms. Additionally, Baker Tilly has a high-traffic website which includes an exclusive location dedicated to encouraging potential candidates to upload their resumes. The aggressive advertising and marketing campaign for top talent will include national, state, regional and local elements as determined during our initial meetings with the City’s representatives. Our customized mailing list, selected from our extensive database and contacts collected at appropriate public-sector conferences, will be utilized to further promote the City Manager position. Advertisements for the City Manager position could be placed with: Baker Tilly website City of Clearwater website International City/County Management Association National Forum of Black Public Administrators Careers in Government (careersingovernment.com) Florida City/County Management Association Florida League of Cities Other neighboring state local government management associations as needed LinkedIn & other social media Baker Tilly has access to numerous contact lists, websites and listservs specific to local government managers/administrators, universities and their alumni, regional councils of government, and contact lists throughout Florida and nationwide that are focused on local government management professionals 3.

Execution of recruitment strategy and identification of quality candidates Utilizing the information developed in Task I, Baker Tilly will identify and reach out to individuals who will be outstanding candidates for the position of City Manager. Often, well-qualified candidates are not actively seeking new employment and will not necessarily respond to an advertisement. However, if a potential candidate is presented with the opportunity directly and in the proper manner, he or she may apply. We take pride in our ability to locate highly qualified candidates across the nation based on the professional contacts and relationships we have developed and maintained over many years. These efforts will be supplemented by the creation of a customized database utilizing our extensive, interactive applicant database for the City Manager position. This will provide the Baker Tilly team with the ability to customize applicant flow and tracking, communication with applicants and conduct database inquiries for candidates based on characteristics important to the City such as geographic location, particular experience, expertise and credentials. During this part of the process the project team will work with the Mayor, City Council and designated staff to reach consensus on the leadership and management style for the ideal candidate. Our research will determine the key competencies, work values and leadership / management style for the City Manager and match the candidates to each attribute. Each candidate submitting a resume is sent a timely acknowledgement by our team, including an approximate schedule for the recruitment. Throughout the recruitment process, communications are maintained with each candidate regarding information about the recruitment progress and their status in the process. We take pride in the many complimentary comments made by candidates regarding the level of communication and the professional manner in which they are treated during our recruitments. Project milestone Deliverables Timeline Execution of recruitment strategy and candidate outreach − Online data collection and profile development − Development of interactive, searchable applicant database for recruitment of the City Manager − Baker Tilly performs direct outreach to prospective candidates identified in the recruitment strategy − Utilization of extensive applicant database to identify applications and review applicant pool for competencies/demographics 4-5 weeks Task III.

We will then narrow the list to 3. Project methodology, approach and timeline City of Clearwater, Florida Page | 22 a group of 8-12 semifinalists for review and select finalists on the basis of written candidate questionnaires, early due diligence information, consultant phone interviews and recorded, one-way video interviews. Another unique aspect of our recruitment process is our use of online recorded interviews for the screening process. Responses are timed and questions are not provided in advance. This tool allows our team to develop a more comprehensive understanding of each candidate’s ability to “think on their feet,” as well as their personal and professional demeanor. Our team will provide an online link for the Mayor, City Council, as well as others who have input into the hiring decision, allowing them to review and later discuss the recorded responses. This provides your organization with additional candidate assessment tools that can be customized to fit the unique needs of the City.

As such, the final interview process may include meetings with the department heads, a City tour and the opportunity for a meet and greet, if requested by the City Council. In advance of the interviews, we will provide documentation on each of the finalists which will provide the highlights of their leadership/management profile (Gap Analysis) as well as a summary of the results of the reference checks, background checks and academic verifications.

Proposals or replies received by the City pursuant to this RFP are exempt from public disclosure until such time that the City provides notice of an intended decision or until 30 days after opening the proposals, whichever is earlier. If the City rejects all proposals or replies pursuant to this RFP and provides notice of its intent to reissue the RFP, then the rejected proposals or replies remain exempt from public disclosure until such time that the City provides notice of an intended decision concerning the reissued RFP or until the City withdraws the reissued RFP. A proposal or reply shall not be exempt from public disclosure longer than 12 months after the initial City notice rejecting all proposals or replies. Oral presentations, meetings where vendors answer questions, or meetings convened by City staff to discuss negotiation strategies, if any, shall be closed to the public (and other proposers) in compliance with Chapter 286 Florida Statutes. A complete recording shall be made of such closed meeting. The recording of, and any records presented at, the exempt meeting shall be available to the public when the City provides notice of an intended decision or until 30 days after opening proposals or final replies, whichever occurs first. If the City rejects all proposals or replies pursuant to this RFP and provides notice of its intent to reissue the RFP, then the recording and any records presented at the exempt meeting remain exempt from public disclosure until such time that the City provides notice of an intended decision concerning the reissued RFP or until the City withdraws the reissued RFP. A recording and any records presented at an exempt meeting shall not be exempt from public disclosure longer than 12 months after the initial City notice rejecting all proposals or replies. In addition to all other contract requirements as provided by law, the contractor executing this agreement agrees to reasonably assist the City with the City’s obligation to comply with public records law. IF THE CONTRACTOR HAS QUESTIONS REGARDING THE APPLICATION OF CHAPTER 119, FLORIDA STATUTES, TO THE CONTRACTOR’S DUTY TO PROVIDE PUBLIC RECORDS RELATING TO THIS CONTRACT, CONTACT THE CUSTODIAN OF PUBLIC RECORDS, Rosemarie Call, phone: 727-562-4092 or Rosemarie.Call@myclearwater.com, 600 Cleveland Street, Suite 600, Clearwater, FL 33755. The contractor’s agreement to comply with public records law applies specifically to reasonably assist the City with the City’s obligation, with respect to public records laws, to: a) Keep and maintain public records required by the City of Clearwater (hereinafter “public agency”) to perform the service being provided by the contractor hereunder. b) Upon request from the public agency’s custodian of public records, provide the public agency with a copy of the requested records or allow the records to be inspected or copied within a reasonable time at a cost that does not exceed the cost provided for in Chapter 119, Florida Statutes, as may be amended from time to time, or as otherwise provided by law. c) Ensure that the public records that are exempt or confidential and exempt from public records disclosure requirements are not disclosed except as authorized by law for the duration of the contract term and following completion of the contract if the contractor does not transfer the records to the public agency. d) Upon completion of the contract, transfer, at no cost, to the public agency all public records in possession of the contractor or keep and maintain public records required by the public agency to perform the service. If the contractor transfers all public records to the public agency upon completion of the contract, the contractor shall destroy any duplicate public records that are exempt or confidential and exempt from public records disclosure requirements. If the contractor keeps and maintains public records upon completion of the contract, the contractor shall meet all applicable requirements for retaining public records. All records stored electronically must be provided to the public agency, upon request from the public agency’s custodian of public records, in a format that is compatible with the information technology systems of the public agency. e) A request to inspect or copy public records relating to a public agency’s contract for services must be made directly to the public agency. If the public agency does not possess the requested records, the public agency shall immediately notify the contractor of the request and the contractor must provide the records to the public agency or allow the records to be inspected or copied within a reasonable time. f) The contractor hereby acknowledges and agrees that if the contractor does not comply with the public agency’s request for records, the public agency shall enforce the contract provisions in accordance with the contract. g) A contractor who fails to provide the public records to the public agency within a reasonable time may be subject to penalties under Section 119.10, Florida Statutes. h) If a civil action is filed against a contractor to compel production of public records relating to a public agency’s contract for services, the court shall assess and award against the contractor the reasonable costs of enforcement, including reasonable attorney fees, if: 1. The court determines that the contractor unlawfully refused to comply with the public records request within a reasonable time; and 2. At least eight (8) business days before filing the action, the plaintiff provided written notice of the public records request, including a statement that the contractor has not complied with the request, to the public agency and to the contractor. i) A notice complies with subparagraph (h)2. if it is sent to the public agency’s custodian of public records and to the contractor at the contractor’s address listed on its contract with the public agency or to the contractor’s registered agent. Such notices must be sent by common carrier delivery service or by registered, Global Express Guaranteed, or certified mail, with postage or shipping paid by the sender and with evidence of delivery, which may be in an electronic format. A contractor who complies with a public records request within 8 business days after the notice is sent is not liable for the reasonable costs of enforcement. S.14 AUDITS AND RECORDS. Contractor must preserve the records related to this Agreement for five (5) years after completion of the Agreement. Any duly authorized state or federal regulatory body shall have the right to inspect any records related to the performance of work specified herein. In addition, the City may inspect any and all payroll, billing or other relevant records kept by Contractor in relation to the Agreement for the purposes of substantiating Contractor’s invoices issued hereunder. Contractor will permit such inspections and audits during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice by the City. The audit of records may occur at Contractor’s place of business or at City offices, as determined by the City. S.15 BACKGROUND CHECK. The City may conduct criminal, driver history, and all other requested background checks of Contractor personnel who would perform services under the Agreement or who will have access to the City’s information, data, or facilities in accordance with the City’s current background check policies. Any officer, employee, or agent that fails the background check must be replaced immediately for any reasonable cause not prohibited by law. S.16 SECURITY CLEARANCE AND REMOVAL OF CONTRACTOR PERSONNEL. The City will have final authority, based on security reasons: (i) to determine when security clearance of Contractor personnel is required; (ii) to determine the nature of the security clearance, up to and including fingerprinting Contractor personnel; and (iii) to determine whether or not any individual or entity may provide services under this Agreement. If the City objects to any Contractor personnel for any reasonable cause not prohibited by law, then Contractor will, upon notice from the City, remove any such individual from performance of services under this Agreement. S.17 DEFAULT. a. A party will be in default if that party: (i) Is or becomes insolvent or is a party to any voluntary bankruptcy or receivership proceeding, makes an assignment for a creditor, or there is any similar action that affects Contractor’s capability to perform under the Agreement; (ii) Is the subject of a petition for involuntary bankruptcy not removed within sixty (60) calendar days; (iii) Conducts business in an unethical manner or in an illegal manner; or (iv) Fails to carry out any term, promise, or condition of the Agreement. b. Contractor will be in default of this Agreement if Contractor is debarred from participating in City procurements and solicitations in accordance with Section 27 of the City’s Purchasing and Procedures Manual. c. Notice and Opportunity to Cure. In the event a party is in default then the other party may, at its option and at any time, provide written notice to the defaulting party of the default. The defaulting party will have thirty (30) days from receipt of the notice to cure the default; the thirty (30) day cure period may be extended by mutual agreement of the parties, but no cure period may exceed ninety (90) days. A default notice will be deemed to be sufficient if it is reasonably calculated to provide notice of the nature and extent of such default. Failure of the non- defaulting party to provide notice of the default does not waive any rights under the Agreement. d. Anticipatory Repudiation. Whenever the City in good faith has reason to question Contractor’s intent or ability to perform, the City may demand that Contractor give a written assurance of its intent and ability to perform. In the event that the demand is made and no written assurance is given within five (5) calendar days, the City may treat this failure as an anticipatory repudiation of the Agreement. S.18 REMEDIES. The remedies set forth in this Agreement are not exclusive. Election of one remedy will not preclude the use of other remedies. In the event of default: a. The non-defaulting party may terminate the Agreement, and the termination will be effective immediately or at such other date as specified by the terminating party. b. The City may purchase the services required under the Agreement from the open market, complete required work itself, or have it completed at the expense of Contractor. If the cost of obtaining substitute services exceeds the contract price, the City may recover the excess cost by: (i) requiring immediate reimbursement to the City; (ii) deduction from an unpaid balance due to Contractor; (iii) collection against the proposal and/or performance security, if any; (iv) collection against liquidated damages (if applicable); or (v) a combination of the aforementioned remedies or other remedies as provided by law. Costs includes any and all, fees, and expenses incurred in obtaining substitute services and expended in obtaining reimbursement, including, but not limited to, administrative expenses, attorneys’ fees, and costs. c. The non-defaulting party will have all other rights granted under this Agreement and all rights at law or in equity that may be available to it. d. Neither party will be liable for incidental, special, or consequential damages. S.19 CONTINUATION DURING DISPUTES. Contractor agrees that during any dispute between the parties, Contractor will continue to perform its obligations until the dispute is settled, instructed to cease performance by the City, enjoined or prohibited by judicial action, or otherwise required or obligated to cease performance by other provisions in this Agreement. S.20 TERMINATION FOR CONVENIENCE. The City reserves the right to terminate this Agreement in part or in whole upon thirty (30) calendar days’ written notice. S.21 CONFLICT OF INTEREST F.S. Section 112. Pursuant to F.S. Section 112, the City may cancel this Agreement after its execution, without penalty or further obligation, if any person significantly involved in initiating, securing, drafting, or creating the Agreement for the City becomes an employee or agent of Contractor. S.22 TERMINATION FOR NON-APPROPRIATION AND MODIFICATION FOR BUDGETARY CONSTRAINT. The City is a governmental agency which relies upon the appropriation of funds by its governing body to satisfy its obligations. If the City reasonably determines that it does not have funds to meet its obligations under this Agreement, the City will have the right to terminate the Agreement without penalty on the last day of the fiscal period for which funds were legally available. In the event of such termination, the City agrees to provide written notice of its intent to terminate thirty (30) calendar days prior to the stated termination date. S.23 PAYMENT TO CONTRACTOR UPON TERMINATION. Upon termination of this Agreement, Contractor will be entitled only to payment for those services performed up to the date of termination, and any authorized expenses already incurred up to such date of termination. The City will make final payment within thirty (30) calendar days after the City has both completed its appraisal of the materials and services provided and received Contractor’s properly prepared final invoice. S.24 NON-WAIVER OF RIGHTS. There will be no waiver of any provision of this agreement unless approved in writing and signed by the waiving party. Failure or delay to exercise any rights or remedies provided herein or by law or in equity, or the acceptance of, or payment for, any services hereunder, will not release the other party of any of the warranties or other obligations of the Agreement and will not be deemed a waiver of any such rights or remedies. S.25 INDEMNIFICATION/LIABILITY. a. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Contractor agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold the City, its officers, agents, and employees, harmless from and against any and all third party liabilities, demands, claims, suits, losses, damages, causes of action, fines or judgments, including costs, attorneys’, witnesses’, and expert witnesses’ fees, and expenses incident thereto, relating to, arising out of, or resulting from: (i) Contractor’s willful misconduct or fraud in the context of services provided by Contractor personnel under this Agreement; (ii) any grossly negligent acts, errors, mistakes or omissions by Contractor or Contractor personnel; and (iii) reserved. b. Contractor will update the City during the course of the litigation to timely notify the City of any issues that may involve the independent negligence of the City that is not covered by this indemnification. c. The City assumes no liability for actions of Contractor and will not indemnify or hold Contractor or any third party harmless for claims based on this Agreement or use of Contractor-provided supplies or services. d. The liability (including attorney’s fees and all other costs) of Contractor and its present or former partners, principals, agents or employees related to any claim for damages relating to the Services performed under this Agreement shall not exceed the fees paid to Contractor under this Agreement, except to the extent finally determined to have resulted from the willful misconduct or fraudulent behavior of Contractor relating to such Services. This limitation of liability is intended to apply to the full extent allowed by law, regardless of the grounds or nature of any claim asserted, including the negligence of either party. Additionally, in no event shall either party be liable for any lost profits, lost business opportunity, lost data, consequential, special, incidental, exemplary or punitive damages, delays, interruptions or viruses arising out of or related to this Agreement even if the other party has been advised of the possibility of such damages. e. The City accepts and acknowledges that any legal proceedings arising from or in conjunction with the Services provided under this Agreement must be commenced within twelve (12) months after the performance of the Services for which the action is brought, without consideration as to the time of discovery of any claim or any other statutes of limitations or repose. S.26 WARRANTY. Contractor warrants that the services and materials will conform to the requirements of the Agreement and be performed in accordance with generally accepted industry standards of care and competence. Additionally, Contractor warrants that all services will be performed in a good, workman- like and professional manner. The City’s acceptance of service or materials provided by Contractor will not relieve Contractor from its obligations under this warranty. If any materials or services are of a substandard or unsatisfactory manner as determined by the City, Contractor, at no additional charge to the City, will provide materials or redo such services until in accordance with this Agreement and to the City’s reasonable satisfaction. Unless otherwise agreed, Contractor warrants the services will be consistent with the Baker Tilly Guarantee in the letter to which these terms are attached. S.27 THE CITY’S RIGHT TO RECOVER AGAINST THIRD PARTIES. Contractor will do nothing to prejudice the City’s right to recover against third parties for any loss, destruction, or damage to City property, and will at the City’s request and expense, furnish to the City reasonable assistance and cooperation, including assistance in the prosecution or defense of suit and the execution of instruments of assignment in favor of the City in obtaining recovery. S.28 NO GUARANTEE OF WORK. Contractor acknowledges and agrees that it is not entitled to deliver any specific amount of materials or services or any materials or services at all under this Agreement and acknowledges and agrees that the materials or services will be requested by the City on an as needed basis at the sole discretion of the City.

To the extent that any Contractor Knowledge is incorporated into the deliverables, Contractor grants to the City a non-exclusive, paid up, perpetual royalty-free worldwide license to use such Contractor Knowledge in connection with the deliverables, and for no other purpose without the prior written consent of Contractor.

Each party agrees to notify the other promptly of any matters to which this provision may apply and to cooperate with each other in connection with such defense or settlement. If a preliminary or final judgment is obtained against the City’s use or operation of the items provided by Contractor hereunder or any part thereof by reason of any alleged infringement, Contractor will, at its expense and without limitation, either: (a) modify the item so that it becomes non-infringing; (b) procure for the City the right to continue to use the item; (c) substitute for the infringing item other item(s) having at least equivalent capability; or (d) refund to the City an amount equal to the price paid, less reasonable usage, from the time of installation acceptance through cessation of use, which amount will be calculated on a useful life not less than five (5) years, plus any additional costs the City may incur to acquire substitute supplies or services.

The party whose performance is so affected will within five (5) calendar days of the unforeseeable circumstance notify the other party of all pertinent facts and identify the force majeure event. The party whose performance is so affected must also take all reasonable steps, promptly and diligently, to prevent such causes if it is feasible to do so, or to minimize or eliminate the effect thereof. The delivery or performance date will be extended for a period equal to the time lost by reason of delay, plus such additional time as may be reasonably necessary to overcome the effect of the delay, provided however, under no circumstances will delays caused by a force majeure extend beyond one hundred-twenty (120) calendar days from the scheduled delivery or completion date of a task unless agreed upon by the parties. S.39 COOPERATIVE USE OF CONTRACT. The City has entered into various cooperative purchasing agreements with other Florida government agencies, including the Tampa Bay Area Purchasing Cooperative. Under a Cooperative Purchasing Agreement, any contract may be extended for use by other municipalities, school districts and government agencies with the approval of Contractor. Any such usage by other entities must be in accordance with the statutes, codes, ordinances, charter and/or procurement rules and regulations of the respective government agency.

Coverage shall be extended beyond the policy year either by a supplemental extended reporting period (SERP) of as great a duration as available, and with no less coverage and with reinstated aggregate limits, or by requiring that any new policy provide a retroactive date no later than the inception date of claims made coverage. d. Unless waived by the State of Florida and proof of waiver is provided to the City, statutory Workers’ Compensation Insurance coverage in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, and Employer’s Liability Insurance in the minimum amount of $500,000 (five hundred thousand dollars) each employee each accident, $500,000 (five hundred thousand dollars) each employee by disease, and $500,000 (five hundred thousand dollars) disease policy limit.

I think that's mitigating adverse impact does not made the project harmonious with these factors. And the also the proposed development is designed to minimize -- minimize traffic congestion. I have reviewed the traffic study, but that's not what I see, and per the testimony today, that's not what I heard. The proposed development is consistent with the community character of the immediate vicinity and the parcel proposed for the development." Again, I don't see that. CHAIRMAN BOUTZOUKAS: Okay. Thank you. Mr. Quattrocki? DELIBERATION STATEMENT BOARD MEMBER JOHN QUATTROCKI MEMBER JOHN QUATTROCKI: I want to first extend my appreciation to everybody here as has been done, not only to public that's come out. I've sat on many Boards and been a part of things and to hear this passion from the public. The great job Staff did, and my fellow Members up here as well, too. You know, I was watching people come on up and return to their seats. And it wasn't far off, it Riesdorph Reporting Group, Inc.

And people came up for the project or against it returned to their seat. I'm going not going to point people out, but they hugged or they shook hands with people that spoke against it sitting right next to them. So there's friends in this audience that are on both sides of this passionately. And that's really hard for us. You know, half of the people are going to come out of here appreciative and the other half are going to be dejected. And you know, we take that into consideration, to remove that side of the equation on our side of it, it's not easy. We're all residents of the City of Clearwater. We want what's best for our residents. We want what's best for the City. But also we have to keep in connection to the property owners' rights. And that's even everybody that's in here, their rights. And you know, I've got empathy for the people that are in the neighborhood that feel that it's encroaching into them. It's been stated, we're not here reviewing the zoning request. This thing's been in place for 20 -plus years, the Tourist. We're not rezoning the property. It's existing right now and it has the Tourist Zoning. And I sit here and battle this. And looking Riesdorph Reporting Group, Inc. (813) 222-8963 www.rrgtampa.com 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 364 94 at it and sitting here staring at the photos. And you know, they're coming in for a 36 -foot height variation in here to get to the Level II. And in that Level I, I'm sitting here saying at 50 feet of elevation as was spoken over here, we've got some against the project, but would support a 50 -foot above base flood elevation, so you're at 65 -- 66 feet. But that project, if it's the same size units and they do it, this building is going to be twice as wide. It's going to be twice the compass on the ground floor. I don't know what's the worse eye -- I'm telling you. I don't know which is the worst eyesore. I've got my opinion on it and that's where I'm going to end up being with this. Compatibility. As was stated, we're not here reviewing an architectural plan. You know, somebody could come in next to you, buy one of these lots that's vacant or an existing house and tear it down and put in a contemporary home next to you. And it doesn't meet with the architectural element of what's in the City at that site right now. What I think I'd like to propose, the one thing that hasn't been addressed and was brought up by several people in here was the traffic calming issue. And I've been looking at it. You know, and first when Riesdorph Reporting Group, Inc. (813) 222-8963 www.rrgtampa.com 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 365 95 it was brought up about, is it Sedeeva. The traffic that was come up the young lady that came on up here talking about it was, I thought the traffic was coming southbound on Edgewater that people didn't want to get hit with the light. They would make that left-hand turn by Sedeeva, and cut through to come on out to Sunset Point. But then I also see it from the light backing up from this project, that would create some additional traffic, and could also generate some traffic. I don't see it on Sunnydale, I mean, I don't see why anybody -- unless they just made a wrong turn thinking they could get out of there. But again this isn't a hotel. I would think if a five -story hotel was built on this property, your traffic intensity would be so much greater than an 80 -unit residential property. I've got to -- I've got to go with experience on it and the professionals here stating it so. So you know that -- that trip generation, and somebody come out of the 50 -foot tall building and put in -- as I'm hearing from Staff -- I think it was closer to 100 units in a motel -type project. I think the traffic would be much worse, and that would be the Level I which wouldn't be in front of us. Riesdorph Reporting Group, Inc.

That could do something there. I know it's not a long road, I think in the scope of the project, it's not a large amount of money that would be something on it, whether it was traffic humps or something of that nature. CHAIRMAN BOUTZOUKAS: I think -- I I hear what you're saying and when we come up with the motion, let's revisit that. MEMBER JOHN QUATTROCKI: Okay. CHAIRMAN BOUTZOUKAS: In that context if we're going to add any additional conditions so we can get some guidance on that. MEMBER JOHN QUATTROCKI: The only other thing I wanted to say, my decision wasn't made up before I came to this meeting today. I mean, I've spent a lot of time reviewing this project, went to the site. Been in Clearwater since 1977. So you know, it's here today and there's been a lot of thought going into this. Thank you.

The City acquired the facility in August 2003 for $635,000 for use by City of Clearwater Fire Department as a maintenance and repair facility. Facility is currently being used for storage which is not economically proportionate to its value. The sale to an employment-based private business will provide greater economic benefit to City, and the employment retained and/or newly created by an appropriate user will provide employment benefit to city residents. Per City Charter 2.01, real property declared surplus shall be sold to the party submitting the highest competitive bid above the appraised value whose bid meets the terms set by the Council and whose proposed use of the property is in accordance with the Council’s stated purpose for declaring the property surplus. Accordingly, all qualifying bids must meet the following terms: ·Bid price shall exceed $580,000; ·Property must generate ad valorem tax revenue; ·Alternatively, an otherwise tax-exempt purchaser shall enter into a payment in lieu of taxes (PILOT) agreement for all city portions of real property taxes, tangible property taxes, utility taxes and any other applicable taxes; and ·Property owner shall increase the site’s property value through capital investment which must commence within 1 year of purchase. An appraisal was performed on the property by James Millspaugh and Associates, Inc. The appraised value was $580,000 with a valuation date of November 13, 2020. Proceeds from sale will be deposited into the General Fund revenue code 010-00000-364220 (Surplus Land Sales).

Justification Statement. This Petition to establish the Clearwater Cay Club Community Development District includes property within the proposed District which is amenable to operating as a community development - district and, therefore, should be granted, for the following reasons: a) The area of land within the proposed District is part of a planned community, for which planned unit development approval has been received from the City. The property to be included in the District is of sufficient size and is sufficiently contiguous and compact to be developed as one functional and interrelated community and the District is planned to be developed as such. The area to be served by the proposed District is amenable to separate special district government. b) Establishment of the District and all land uses and services planned within the proposed District are not inconsistent with the applicable elements or portions of the Clearwater Comprehensive Plan or the State Comprehensive Plan. c) The proposed District will be the best alternative available for delivering community development services to the area to be served because the District provides a governmental entity for delivering those services and facilities in a manner that does not financially impact persons residing outside the proposed District and provides a responsible perpetual entity capable of making reasonable provisions for the operation and maintenance of District services and facilities in the future. The establishment of the District will prevent the general body of taxpayers in Clearwater from bearing the burden for installation of the infrastructure and the maintenance of the above-described facilities within the development encompassed by the proposed District. d) The community development services of the proposed District will be compatible with the capacity and use of existing local and regional services and facilities, allows for a more efficient use of resources, provides the opportunity for new growth to pay for itself, and provides a perpetual entity capable of making reasonable provisions for the operation and maintenance of the District services and facilities. 12. Supplemental Petition.

WHEREFORE, Petitioner respectfully requests the City Council of the City of Clearwater to: 355599 vI 3 a) Schedule a public hearing in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 190, Florida Statutes, to consider the establishment of the Clearwater Cay Club Community Development District; b) Grant the petition and adopt an ordinance pursuant to Chapter 190, Florida Statutes, establishing the Clearwater Cay Club Community Development District; and c) Consent to the District's exercise of its statutory powers which includes all powers set forth in Sections 190.011 and 190.012, Florida Statutes.

For Informational Purposes Only. EXHIBIT f r r EXHIBIT "G" STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS (SERC) STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS 1.0 Introduction 1.1 Purpose and Scope This statement of estimated regulatory costs ("SERC") supports the petition to establish the Clearwater Cay Club Community Development District ("District"). The proposed District comprises approximately 40 +/- acres of land within the City of Clearwater, Florida on which approximately 195 residential villa units, 119 hotel-minium units, 17,278 S.F. of office space, 102,869 S.F. of retail space, 27,014 S.F. of restaurant space, parking and recreational facilities are planned for development. The aforementioned development program will be added to the 336 existing apartments. The limitations on the scope of this SERC are set out in Chapters 120 and 190 F.S. (2004) (specifically, Sections 190.005(1)(a)8, and 120.541(2)). Moreover, Section 190.002(2)(d), F.S. (2004), provides "that the process of establishing such a district pursuant to uniform general law shall be fair and based onlv on factors material to managing and financing the service delivery function of the district, so that any matter concerning permitting or planning of the development is not material or relevant emphasis added)." 1.2 Overview of the Clearwater Cay Club Community Development District The District is designed to provide community infrastructure, services, and facilities along with their operations and maintenance. The development plan for the proposed lands within the District includes the construction of approximately 195 residential villa units, 119 hotel-minium units, 17,278 S.F. of office space, 102,869 S.F. of retail space,27,014 S.F. of restaurant space, parking and recreational facilities. The 336 existing apartments will be renovated to compliment the newly constructed development program. 1.3 Requirements for the Statement of Estimated Regulatory Costs Section 120.541(2), F.S. (2004), defines the elements a statement of estimated regulatory costs must contain: a) A good faith estimate of the number of individuals and entities likely to be required to comply with the rule, together with a general description of the types of individuals likely to be affected by the rule. b) A good faith estimate of the cost to the agency, and to any other state and local government entities, of implementing and enforcing the proposed rule, and any anticipated effect on state and local revenues. c) A good faith estimate of the transactional costs likely to be incurred by individuals and entities, including local govermnental entities, required to comply with the requirements of 1 1 iis EXHIBIT the rule. As used in this paragraph, "transactional costs" are direct costs that are readily ascertainable based upon standard business practices, and include filing fees, the cost of obtaining a license, the cost of equipment required to be installed or used or procedures required to be employed in complying with the rule, additional operating costs incurred, and the cost of monitoring and reporting. d) An analysis of the impact on small businesses as defined by Section 288.703. F.S. 2004), and an analysis of the impact on small counties and small cities as defmed by Section 120.52, F.S. (2004). The City of Clearwater is not defined as a small city for purposes ofthis requirement. e) Any additional information that the agency determines may be useful. f) In the statement or revised statement, whichever applies, a description of any good faith written proposal submitted under paragraph (l)(a) and either a statement adopting the alternative or a statement of the reasons for rejecting the alternative in favor of the proposed ' rule. 2.0 A good faith estimate of the number of individuals and entities likely to be required to comply with the ordinance, together with a general description of the types of individuals likely to be affected by the ordinance. As noted above, Clearwater Cay Club is designed for approximately 336 apartments, 195 residential villa units, 119 hotel-minium units, 17,278 S.F. of office space, 102,869 S.F. of retail space, and 27,014 S.F. of restaurant space. Establishment of the District would put all of the households and businesses that locate within the community under the jurisdiction of the District. Of course, the decision to locate within the District is a voluntary one. 3.0 A good faith estimate of the cost to state and local government entities of implementing and enforcing the proposed ordinance, and any anticipated effect on state and local revenues. 3.1 Costs to Govermnental Agencies ofImplementing and Enforcing Ordinance State Govermnent Entities The District consists of fewer than 1,000 acres; therefore the City of Clearwater is the establishing entity under Section 190.005(2), F.S. (2004). There will be only modest costs to various State govermnental entities to implement and enforce the proposed establishment of the District. The modest costs to various State entities to implement and enforce the proposed ordinance relate strictly to receipt and processing of various reports that the proposed District is required to file with the State and its various entities. Appendix A lists the reporting requirements. The costs to those State agencies that will receive and process the District's reports are very small, because the District is only one of several hundred govermnental units that are required to submit the various reports. Therefore, the marginal cost of processing one additional set of reports is de minimis. Additionally, pursuant to Section 2 189.412, F.S. (2004) the proposed District must pay an annual fee to the State of Florida Department of Community Affairs to offset such costs. The City of Clearwater The land within the District is within the municipal limits of the City of Clearwater and consists of fewer than 1,000 acres. The Clearwater City Council and its staff will process, analyze, conduct a public hearing, and vote upon the petition to establish the District. These activities will absorb some resources. These costs to the City are modest for a number of reasons. First, review of the petition to establish the District does not include analysis of the project itself. Second, the petition itself provides much of the information needed for a staff review. Third, the City of Clearwater already possesses the staff needed to conduct the review without the need for new staff. Fourth, there is no capital required to review the petition. Fifth, local governments routinely process similar petitions for land uses and zoning changes that are far more complex than is the petition to establish a community development district. Finally, costs related to staff's time to process the petition to establish the District have been offset by a filing fee that will be paid to the City. The annual costs to the City, because of the establishment of the District, are also very small and within control of the City. The proposed District is an independent unit of local govermnent. The only annual costs the City faces are the minimal costs of receiving and to the extent it wishes, reviewing the various reports that the District is required to provide to the City. 3.2 Impact on State and Local Revenues Adoption of the proposed ordinance will have no negative impact on State or local revenues. The District is an independent unit of local govermnent with limited powers. It is designed by law to provide community facilities and services to the lands that comprise the Clearwater Cay Club Community. It has its own sources of revenue. No State or local subsidies are required or expected. In this regard it is important to note that any debt obligations incurred by the District to construct its infrastructure, or for any other reason, "are not debts of the State of Florida or any other unit of local govermnent. In accordance with State law, debts of the CDD are strictly its own responsibility. 4.0 A good faith estimate of the transactional costs likely to be incurred by individuals and entities required to comply with the requirements of the ordinance. Table 1 provides an outline of the various facilities and services the proposed District may provide. It is anticipated that the District will fund, own, operate, and maintain the community's recreational amenities, public parking, and security facilities. The District also plans to construct and fmance the internal roadway system, and potable water and wastewater utilities. It is anticipated that these facilities will be turned over to the City of Clearwater for ownership and maintenance. 3 Table 1.

To fund this construction program the District may issue special assessments or other revenue bonds estimated to total $22,000,000. These would be repaid through non-ad valorem assessments levied on all developable property within the District that specially benefit from the District's capital improvement program as outlined in Table 2.

In addition to the levy of non-ad valorem assessments for debt service, the District may also impose a non-ad valorem assessment to fund the operations and maintenance of the District and its facilities and services. It is important to note that the various costs outlined in Table 2 are typical for developments of the type contemplated. There is nothing peculiar about the District's fmancing that requires additional infrastructUre over and above what would normally be needed. Therefore, these costs are not in addition to normal development costs. District-imposed assessments for operations and maintenance costs are similar to what would be charged by a property owner's association common to most mixed-use developments except they are govermnent enforced first liens. 4 Real estate markets are quite efficient, because buyers and renters evaluate all of the costs and benefits associated with various alternative locations. Therefore, market forces preclude developers from marking up the prices of their products beyond what the competition allows. To remain competitive the operations and maintenance assessments must also be in line with the costs imposed by the competition. Furthermore, the decision to locate within the District is completely voluntary. These potential residents are given full disclosure of the existence of the district and level of anticipated assessments. So ultimately, all owners and users of the affected property chose to accept the District's costs in tradeoff for the benefits that the District provides. A Community Development District ("CDD") provides residents with the option of having higher levels of facilities and services financed through self-imposed charges. The District is an alternative means to finance necessary community services. District fmancing is no more expensive, and often less expensive, than the alternatives of a municipal service taxing unit (MSTU), a neighborhood association, City provision (directly or via a dependent special district), or through developer equity and/or bank loans. It should be noted that occupants of the lands within the District will receive three major classes of benefits. First, those residents and businesses in the District will receive a higher level of public services and amenities sooner than would otherwise be the case. Second, a CDD is a mechanism to ensure that the community services and amenities will be completed concurrently with development of lands within the District. This satisfies the revised growth management legislation, and it assures that growth pays for itself without undue burden on other consumers. Establishment of the District will ensure that these landowners pay for the provision of facilities, services and improvements to these lands. Third, a CDD is the sole form of governance which allows District landowners, through landowner voting and ultimately electoral voting for resident elected boards, to determine the type, quality and expense of District services they receive, provided they meet the City's overall requirements. 5.0 An analysis of the impact on small businesses as defined by Section 288.703, F.S. 2004), and an analysis of the impact on small counties and small cities as defined by Section 120.52, F.S. (2004). There will be no impact on small businesses because of the establishment of the District. If anything, the impact may be positive. This is because the District must competitively bid certain contracts. This affords small businesses the opportunity to bid on District work. The City of Clearwater has an estimated population (not incarcerated) in 2004 that is greater than 10,000. Therefore the City of Clearwater is not defined as a "small" city according to Section 120.52, F.S. 5 6.0 Any Additional useful information. The analysis provided above is based on a straightforward application of economic theory, especially as it relates to tracking the incidence of regulatory costs and benefits. Input was received from the developer's engineer and other professionals associated with the developer. Finally, it is useful to reflect upon the question of whether the proposed District is the best alternative to provide community facilities ~d services to the project. As an alternative to the District, the City of Clearwater could approve a dependent special district for the area, such as an MSBU or a special taxing district. Either of these alternatives could finance the improvements contemplated in Table 1 in a fashion similar to the proposed District. There . are a number of reasons why a dependent district is not the best alternative for ' providing community facilities and services to the Clearwater Cay Club Community. First, unlike the District, the alternatives would require the City of Clearwater to administer the project and its facilities and services. As a result, the costs for these services and facilities would not be sequestered to the land directly benefiting from them, as the case would be with the District. Administering a project of the size and complexity of the development program anticipated for the Clearwater Cay Club Community is a significant and expensive undertaking. Second, a District is preferable from a govermnent accountability perspective. With a District, residents and landowners in the District would have a focused unit of govermnent ultimately under their direct control. The District can then be more responsive to resident needs without disrupting other City responsibilities. By contrast, if the City of Clearwater was to establish a dependent district, then the residents and landowners of the Clearwater Cay Club Community would take their grievances and desires to the City Council. Third, any debt of a District is strictly the District's responsibility. While it may he technically true that the debt of a City-established dependent, special district is not strictly the City's responsibility, any fmancial problems that the special district may have will inevitably entangle the City. This will not be the case if a District is established. Another alternative to the District would be for a property owner's association to provide the infrastructure, operations, and maintenance of community facilities and services. A District is superior to a POA for a variety of reasons. First, unlike a POA a District can obtain low cost funds from the municipal capital markets. Second, the District can impose and collect its assessments along with other property taxes. Therefore, the District is far more assured of obtaining its needed funds than is a POA. Third, the proposed District is a unit of local govermnent. This provides a higher level of oversight and accountability. 6 Fishkind and Associates certifies that this SERC meets the requirements for a Statement of Estimated Regulatory Costs as set out in Section 120.541, F.S.

Michael T. Redd. President Frank a. Baynham, Vice President Clearwater Cay Club US Highway 19 North Clearwater, Florida Introduction This narrative describes the intended improvements for the property, now called the Clearwater Cay Club. The existing project comprising 24.08 acres contains 336 apartments and attendant garages, known as Venezia, built in clusters along the waterside on Old Tampa Bay. These buildings, along with several support structures and clubs, have been previously designed and constructed using Venetian Italian architectural design influence. The color palette and certain fascia detailing enabled the previous owner to market these apartments under the label Venezia. The new plan encompasses the Venezia Village as well as an adjunct new. development directly adjacent to Venezia. This new develop provides a wide range of additional amenities, both for the residents and for visitors. In continuing the Italian theme and reinforcing the Italian Architectural character the current owners intend to enhance the stated vernacular with a more authentic Venetian inspired architectural approach. The new buildings will be designed with careful attention to proportion, style, material use and graphic-architectural detailing. Further, the placement of shops of Venetian Mediterranean character are located on, and will replace, the old Levitz shopping mall that is barely functioning and has out-dated architecture not in keeping with the style of the initial project. . Key Changes Clearwater Cay Club is now being designed as a regional destination attracting local, national, and International users. Its site designed and location celebrates the water. Its landscape evokes a warm Floridian-Mediterranean environment. The master plan introduces a new shallow fresh water basin and small canal system that, while not connected to salty Clearwater Bay, will impart a strong visual impression that a water network is the project's integral component. Around this new lagoon (Lagoon di Alba) new Venetian inspired themed structures will contain spa, new residences, retail shops, offices and a hotel, all supported by new structured parking. 631 U.S. Highway One, Suite 300 -A North Palm Beach, FL 33408 Voice: 561.863.2500 Fax: 561.863.2505 E-mail: Reddplan@aol.com Clearwater Cay Club Scott Callahan March 4, 2005 Michael Redd Associates, P .A. Internal Roadway and Landscape Enhancements The existing apartments will still be accessed as now from Bellair Road, with a major security access gatehouse for enhanced security and exclusivity. Clearwater Cay Club's internal roadways will be improved and enhanced by an appropriately themed streetscape (graphics, street trees, street furniture, etc.) as well as enhanced entry and exit points from US 19 N. Special paving materials and unique landscape themed plantings will unify the Venezia with the additional new properties and present the project as a unified design. Via Veneto Via Veneto serves as the main arrival visual by the creation of a central and newly created "Main Street." Via Venteo is conceived as a true European shopping street with access to shops, hotel, and adjacent parking structure at the ground level. This unique blend of exciting architecture and a European countenance will become the entire project's visual icon. Galleria Shops along the Via Veneto will be differentiated by Venetian striped gondola posts and banner awnings and will have streetside architecture again with a strong Venetian Architectural vernacular. Covered promenade walkways with regularly occurring side pedestrian vias will offer frequent merchandising corners and invite pedestrian traffic into the heart of the new project. Utilizing the southern footprint of the existing mall, and as much of the support structure as can be retained, an extended gallery of smart shop units will be developed using Venetian city design principles. Three stories high, with ceramic barrel tile roof and faux Venetian flared chimneys above, the Galleria can be accessed from Via Veneto, or from several pedestrian only passigiata (passageways) that pierce the building, or from the canal side to the east. A projecting arcade that is a sunscreen during the summer months will protect the faQade of the Galleria on the east side. Concept drawings illustrate the use of canted shade awnings, radius arched entries, decorative lanterns and lighting, and sophisticated signage that will be controlled and defined in the owner-tenant design guidelines. A small Bridge of Sighs (Ponte dell Sopire) spans Via Veneto at the second or third levels, connecting upper level parking with the Galleria. As well these upper Page 2 of 3 Clearwater Cay Club Scott Callahan March 4, 2005 Michael Redd Associates, P .A. level pedestrian bridges serve to connect (on a N-S axis) living units with the hotel and shops. A central feature of the building at an interruption point of the Golden Section levels by a tower was inspired by the Torre dei Mori on St Mark's Square. This fa<;ade detail carried an early clock design and other interesting details. This design is repeated on the west side. A major archway gives entrance to one of the passages. Internally, apartments and/or offices will be found at the second and third levels. The internal access to these has yet to be established but will probably be from escalators and steps off an internal covered courtyard than runs the axis of the structure. The Canal and the Lagoon The small canal shown on the plan runs south to north. It is spanned in two places by small Venetian bridges that will give access to the east side of the.. Lagoon. These bridges contain archways of sufficient height and breadth to allow for the passing of a gondola below. The canal enters the Lagoon under one of these brick or stone-faced bridges. On this body of water evening shows are possible with water and light generated spectacles. Occasional processions of traditional Venetian boats that are highly decorated reinforce the theme. Around the edge of the Lagoon runs the Cammino degli Andanti - or Pedestrian Promenade - a walkway and strolling area which will be illuminated at night by appropriate cast iron street lanterns. The master plan illustrates a small covered performance gazebo that juts into the lake. Restaurants and shops face the lake. There is sufficient plaza dimension to extend some of the restaurants into outdoor tables and chairs. As in Venice, these areas will be protected by kinetic shade structures. Hotel A five-story hotel is planned as the central anchor of the project. The intended footprint overlays the center and north part of the Levitz Mall demolished to provide the new footings. A porte cochere and valet drop off will be provided on the west side along the Via Veneto, or from the Piazza Minore, one of two traffic circles.

So the City of Clearwater was hoodwinked into believing this was going to be a grandiose community. 49 acres if I recall of tarps -- A. Because I believe the entire District was created on a fraud.

ZOOM DEPOSITION OF DONALD DWYER A. General public is not permitted to access the community by a long-standing agreement between Bellagio and the Grand Venezia before the District was created. Grand Bellagio provides all gated access. They are responsible for it. They are the ones who determine who comes in and who does not. And the agreement, that agreement is not being modified or altered in any way. Q. Okay. Would you agree with me that the only -- only landowners that benefit from land and improvement behind the gate are the owners of the Grand Venezia condominium units? A. I probably would have to agree with that. Q. So you agree, correct me if I'm wrong, you have agreed with me that the benefits derived from the land and improvements behind the gate only inures to the owners of the Grand Venezia condominium units, correct? A. I believe that's a true statement currently.

COMPL 12. The CDD is not functioning as a legitimate community development district, and therefore the Grand Venezia seeks to have the CDD dissolved or otherwise contracted such that the unit owners in the Grand Venezia are no longer burdened with special assessments levied by the CDD. 63. Although the CDD exists on paper, it has not been functioning as a legitimate community development district. 70. No public purpose is being served by the CDD. 83. At the present, the CDD does not remotely resemble a viable community development district. In fact, in 2015, commercial lands that previously had been owned by the CDD were deeded to Clearwater Cay Holdings, LLC, an Oppenheimer owned and controlled entity.

WHERE: Clearwater City Council Hearing Room at the Clearwater Main Library, 100 N. Osceola Ave, Clearwater, FL 33755 WHY: See below. The property and grounds of the Grand Venezia community are currently owned by the Clearwater Cay Community Development District (a government entity) known as the "CDD". Grand Venezia Unit owners pay a non-advalorem annual fee (tax), for the debt service and maintenance of the community property. This has been manageable until now. As many of you know there are new apartments (The Vue) located in front of our community. Those buildings currently sit within the "CDD" boundary and are charged an annual maintenance fee of roughly $130,000. Within the past year, the new owners of the VUE have challenged the CDD to be relieved of their annual fees. They recently filed a lawsuit against the CDD to be exempted from their annual fees. They must first get the approval of the Clearwater City Council members to move forward. This affects the Owners and Renters of Grand Venezia If the VUE gets approval from the City Council to move forward, the CDD will lose $130,000 of its revenue. That revenue supports the CDD operational costs and helps maintain the Grand Venezia property. If the CDD (Grand Venezia) fails to convince the City Council that the VUE should NOT be relieved of their fees, the Owners and Rentersin Grand Venezia will be assessed (charged additional costs) annually to cover the loss. This would result in an (approx.) additional $387.00 per unit annually. This increase will be added to owners annual CDD tax assessments! We Need your help! CALL TO ACTION! If you live in the Grand Venezia community as an owner or renter, please plan to attend the Clearwater City Council meeting on March 4th and be willing to say a few words to OPPOSE the VUE. We will provide talking points for those willing to speak at the meeting. 1 Manager From: Nian Ou <nian.ou@hotmail.com> Sent: Tuesday, February 16, 2021 3:27 PM To: Manager Subject: Opposition Statement on Vue withdrawal request As an owner of Grand Venezia condo, I am against the Vue withdrawal request from the Clearwater Cay Community Development District.

The Vue apartments are located within the bounds of the CDD as is the Grand Venezia condominium complex. The CDD has a long and unfortunate history. This was well known to the owners of the VUE at the time of their purchase, as was the obligation for the VUE to pay fees to the CDD. They entered the arrangement with full knowledge of its implications. There exists no basis for relieving the VUE ownership group from the obligation to pay its CDD fees. Doing so unfairly and without justification serves to offload the VUE's liability onto individual Grand Venezia owners. Doing so also serves to exacerbate the burden individual Grand Venezia owners already bear on account of the ongoing existence of the CDD and through no fault of their own). Grand Venezia owners have not been relieved of their obligation to pay CDD fees and therefore nor should the VUE ownership group. Respectfully submitted, Paul Grossman and Patricia Ramage Unit 418 - 2729 Via Murano 1 Manager From: Ramon J. Rodriguez <rodriguezrj@gmail.com> Sent: Tuesday, February 16, 2021 8:52 PM To: Manager Subject: Please present this to the Clearwater City Council at their Meeting concerning the request by The Vue to be given relief from the non-advalorem annual fee (tax) for their share of this fee which all property owners with in the CDD boundaries agreed to. I am writing to express strong opposition to the request by The Vue seeking withdrawal from the Clearwater Cay Community Development District. My understanding is that the owners of The Vue entered and signed with their eyes wide open and with the consultation and guidance of their attorneys, a purchase agreement that clearly conveyed that Clearwater Cay Community Development District (a government entity) known as the "CDD" will receive an annual non- advalorem (tax) from The Vue, for the debt service and maintenance of the community property. That agreement is virtually the same agreement that the property owners and HOA of the Grand Venezia community. There is no justifiable reason for the CDD to forgive The Vue of the debt that they knowingly agreed to at the time of purchase. One must ask why should The Vue receive such relief while the other members of the CDD continue to pay their share. Providing debt relief to The Vue's would transfer their tax burden to each and every owner in the Grand Venezia Complex. Doing would be a grave disservice to a community that has been a loyal and supportive "partner" of the CDD. I respectfully and sincerely ask that you do not give The Vue the tax relief they are seeking. Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

Hi Rosemarie — Are you still reading resident statements into the record at the city council meetings? If so I request that you read mine below, concerning an appointment to the CDB. If not I will write or call in to the meeting. Thanks, Liz Drayer 727-465-6663 I support the appointment of Karen Cunningham to the Community Development Board. I can hardly imagine anyone more qualified for this role. Her work as a transportation planner gives her a unique perspective on the impact of development. Her service on city boards and leadership on the Clearwater Neighborhoods Coalition show her commitment to improving the community. Her longtime residence in Clearwater gives her a deep understanding of our city and its needs. She is a conscientious and fair-minded person who will treat the job seriously. We are lucky that someone of this caliber has stepped up to serve on this board, and I ask that you give her this opportunity. Thank you for your consideration.

Dear Clearwater City Council, I support that we elect Muhammad Abdur-Rahim to be appointed to the Community Development Board. I think his experience and community commitment will make a great addition to the board. In my opinion his many years of service and volunteer work to the local community speaks volumes in the kind of board members we need to create a Clearwater vision that fits well and works for all of our residents.
