E
Right
well,
thank
you
all
for
making
time
to
attend
this
special
meeting.
Today
we
are
happy
to
bring
you
our
draft,
a
couple
of
chapters
for
our
comprehensive
plan
and
what
we'd
like
to
do
today
is
work
with
you
and
your
capacity
as
the
local
planning
agency,
which
we
don't
really
do
a
whole
lot
of.
So
this
will
be
a
good
discussion.
E
Hopefully
today,
where
you
can
provide
some
input
on
the
policy
Direction,
that's
being
proposed
in
the
update
of
the
comprehensive
plan,
so
we
will
tackle
two
chapters,
this
meeting
and
then
the
remainder
at
your
meeting
next
week.
So
at
this
point,
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
Jamie
lottko,
our
long-range
planning
manager.
Let's
get
started.
F
So
we're
going
to
begin
about
talking
about
what
is
a
comprehensive
plan,
then
we're
going
to
look
at
what
kind
of
changes
we're
making
to
the
plan.
The
public
engagement.
That's
got
us
to
this
point
and
then
we'll
get
into
the
first
few
chapters,
which
is
quality
places
and
mobilities
and
mobility,
and
then
we're
going
to
close
with
next
steps
and
an
opportunity
for
questions
and
comments
from
the
board.
It's
a
lot
of
information,
I'll
pause,
frequently
if
in
case
there's
questions
intermittently,
if
not
feel
free
to
stop
me
at
any
point.
F
That's
not
good
great
I'll
keep
going
over
time.
Laws
and
the
vision
and
direction
of
the
city
has
changed,
signifying
a
need
for
amendments
and
updates
to
the
comprehensive
plan.
Major
updates
of
the
plan
typically
occur
every
seven
to
ten
years.
The
current
comprehensive
plan
for
the
city
was
written
in
2008
and
we've
done
minor
amendments
since
then,
since
adoption
and
at
this
time
we're
performing
a
complete
rewrite
of
the
comprehensive
plan,
including
reporting
reformatting,
the
document
to
make
it
easier
to
use.
F
F
F
Prescriptive
right
now,
there's
a
lot
of
statements
say
the
city
shall
do
this.
The
city
must
do
this
and
for
a
policy
document,
we'd
really
rather
be
action,
oriented
that
we
want
to
research
things
or
consider
things
or
evaluate
things,
and
so
the
document
has
been
Rewritten
to
be
more
action,
oriented.
F
And
also
there
was
a
lot
of
repetition
because
there
were
requirements
set
up
by
the
state
of
a
certain
number
of
elements
that
we
had
to
have
a
lot
of
the
the
elements
overlapped
and
what
they
covered.
So
there's
a
lot
of
repetition
causing
for
a
longer
document,
so
we've
gone
through
Great
Lengths
to
try
and
create
smaller
chapters,
giving
us
an
easier
opportunity
to
find
things,
make
it
more
user-friendly
for
the
board
for
city
council
for
staff
and
the
public.
F
All
right,
so
we
will
roll
right
into
public
engagements
all
right,
so
our
process
for
rewriting
the
company
I
began
back
in
in
2020,
with
a
detailed
review
of
our
current
plan
that
led
into
public
engagement.
So
with
systems
we
had
a
consultant
HDR.
They
worked
with
us
to
engage
the
community
to
identify
current
Community
assets
and
concerns
shared
thoughts
on
opportunities
for
improvement
and
discuss
priorities
for
the
for
the
future.
F
So
the
public
engagement
involved
over
300
participants,
any
items
that
were
listed
on
the
slide
and
so
staff
used
the
engagements
to
develop
a
vision
that
is
listed
on
the
slide
and
also
common
themes
were
heard
during
this
engagement
and
some
of
those
were
promoting
cultural,
social
and
artistic
vibrancy
of
the
city,
bringing
New
Life
to
downtown
Transportation
concerns
for
safety,
connectivity
and
public
transit
and
balancing
City
policy
emphasis
between
all
areas
of
the
city,
not
just
focusing
on
downtown
and
Clearwater
Beach,
and
so
these
themes
were
used
as
a
guide
in
developing
the
new
comprehensive
plan.
F
Oh
yeah,
all
right
so
before
we
get
into
the
two
chapters
I
want
to,
let
you
know
a
couple
of
things.
First,
the
plans
formatted
into
goals,
objectives
and
policies
in
each
chapter
and
I'll
cover
the
goals
and
their
Associated
objectives
and
policies.
As
they've
been
drafted,
we
use
the
current
plan
as
a
guide.
So
a
lot
of
what
was
in
the
current
plan
has
been
carried
over,
whether
it
be
verbatim
or
we've
updated
it
to
meet
current
needs.
F
Well,
we've
also
added
some
new
items
and
I'll
try
to
point
those
out
as
we
get
to
those
second,
it
is
a
draft
document.
So
again
we
welcome
your
input,
comments
and
questions.
It's
likely
going
to
change
in
format
in
the
order
and
possibly
some
content
based
on
what
we
hear
from
Oregon
City
Council.
F
Lastly,
there's
also
going
to
be
what
we
call
a
plan,
implementation
section
at
the
end
of
this
document,
and
so
that's
going
to
cover
goals,
objectives
and
policies
related
to
annexation,
but
also
anything
related
to
intergovernmental
coordination,
so
like
in
Mobility,
we
would
work
with
psda
or
Pinellas
County
on
things.
Those
things
you
won't
see
in
this
chapter
because
they
will
be
covered
in
plan
implementation,
so
I
just
want
to
let
you
know
that
ahead
of
time,
if
you're
looking
for
something
like
that,
that
will
be
covered
in
a
later
section,
all
right.
F
So,
let's
get
started
with
quality
places.
Quality
places
provides
guidance
for
city
leaders,
staff
and
the
public
related
to
land,
use
developments
and
redevelopments
place
character
and
preservation,
neighborhood
stability,
housing,
affordability
and
economic
development.
A
chapter
contains
goals,
objectives
and
policies
that
came
from
our
existing
future
land
use
and
housing
elements.
F
The
goals,
objections
and
policies
will
be
identified
by
the
initials
of
the
chapter
they
come
from
and
a
numerical
value
so
for
Quality
places,
they'll
begin
with
QP
and
in
Mobility
they'll
begin
with
an
M.
It's
getting
a
better
way
to
try
and
track
things
instead
of
saying
goal:
1.1
we
know
that
it
came
from
quality
places,
so
we
had
a
new
numbering
system
so
goal
qp1
covers
our
land
use
and
development
in
the
city.
F
It's
one
of
our
larger
goals,
with
10
objectives,
covering
a
wide
range
of
topics
that
are
listed
on
the
slide.
Most
of
the
topics
are
brought
over
from
the
current
plan.
However,
there
are
three
new
objectives
related
to
tree
protection,
tree
canopy
and
Economic
Opportunity,
so
our
QP
1.1
States
development
within
the
city
should
be
guided
by
the
future.
F
So,
policies
on
this
include
limiting
amendments
that
would
create
spot
zoning
directing
higher
density
intensity
uses
to
our
multimodal
and
Transit
corridors,
ensuring
we
have
adequate
public
facilities
to
support
increased
increases
in
density
and
intensity,
ensuring
requests
and
densities
intensities
are
compatible
with
our
surrounding
neighborhoods,
maintaining
consistency
of
our
map
with
a
county-wide
map
and
comparing
those
two
to
identify
where
our
inconsistencies
are
and
try
to
address.
Those
review.
F
Amendments
to
our
Clearwater
Air
Park
are
near
our
Clearwater
Airport
for
consistency
with
our
airport
master
plan
and
denying
amendments
that
would
increase
density
or
intensity
in
our
Coastal
storm
area
unless
the
specific
requirements
are
met,
1.2
covers
infield
development
and
Redevelopment
being
compatible
with
the
surrounding
environment.
This
includes
encouraging
Redevelopment
and
infill
development.
That's
of
economically
underutilized
areas,
facilitating
productive
reuse
of
abandoned
or
underutilized
Properties
or
buildings.
F
I'm,
sorry,
it's
all
on
this
slide.
This
is
all
under
the
objectives.
Okay,
we
haven't
got
to
go
number
two.
Yet
right.
That's
okay!
1.4
is
our
signage.
This
is
one
that
is
carried
over
from
our
current
code
and
we're
going
to
leave
that
in
there,
as
is
to
help
us
implement
the
city
sign
code.
Their
policies
under
this
include
restricting
commercial
Steins
that
discourage
to
discourage
visual
clutter
and
prohibiting
Billboards
in
certain
areas.
F
1.5
states
that
development
should
meet
landscaping
and
tree
protection
standards,
and
this
is
a
newer
one.
We
wanted
to
include
this
to
protect
trees
during
during
construction.
We
want
to
cite
development
to
reduce
impact
to
our
trees.
We
want
to
continue
to
pursue
our
tree
City,
USA
designation.
F
F
1.6
is
about
sustaining
a
tree
canopy.
This
is
a
newer
one
as
well
that
we
want
to
preserve
a
shade
tree
canopy
on
private
property
by
limiting
removal
or
ensuring
replacement
of
shade
trees.
You
want
to
support
your
retention
of
tree
canopies
over
our
public
rights
of
way
and
from
our
green
foot
10.0.
We
want
to
survey
the
city's
tree
canopy
and
set
a
goal
to
increase
that
canopy
coverage.
F
1.7
is
the
requirement
for
hospitals
in
our
institutional
future.
Land
use.
This
again
is
pulled
over
from
our
current
plan,
as
is,
and
this
is
required
by
forward
Pinellas-
it
includes
Hospital
uses,
must
have
an
approved
site
plan
or
master
plan,
and
what
that
master
plan
a
site
plan
must
include
and
sets
Provisions
for
Hospital
uses
that
are
contiguous
to
or
near
a
municipal
boundary.
F
1.8
is
a
compliance
with
the
code
being
maintained
by
our
building
and
code
enforcement
activities.
So
with
that
we
will
we
want
to
provide
education
on
our
city
standards.
We
want
to
make
sure
people
understand
what
we're
out
there
trying
to
enforce.
We
want
to
enforce
the
city
standards
through
our
code
enforcement.
We
want
to
minister
our
forward
Florida
building
code
and
permitting
in
a
fair
and
Equitable
Manner,
and
we
want
to
administer
a
minimum
housing
and
unsafe
structures.
F
Code
1.9
is
supporting
Economic
Opportunity,
existing
Industries
and
the
creation
of
jobs
and
training
opportunities.
Under
this,
we're
looking
to
establish
an
economic
development
plan
encourage
businesses
to
work
with
our
Economic
Development
and
housing
department
to
find
incentives
or
possible
locations
in
the
city.
F
Look
at
the
formation
and
growth
of
small
businesses,
evaluate
city-owned
properties
for
economic
opportunities
before
declaring
them
Surplus
support
tourism
opportunities
in
the
city,
create
programs
and
policies
to
reduce
employment
disparities
partnering
with
our
area,
colleges
to
promote
business
or
related
degrees
and
promote
and
support
Workforce
training,
Grant
programs
and
lastly,
1.10
is
our
American
with
Disabilities
Act
standards.
Should
we
met
on
all
city-owned
properties
during
development,
Redevelopment
renovations?
F
This
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we're
implementing
our
Ada
guide
to
just
non-compliance
structures,
public
buildings.
Excuse
me
ensuring
our
product
buildings
are
ADA
Compliant
and
incorporate
those
into
Renovations
and
also
improve
city
facilities
to
ensure
necessary
needs
are
provided
to
the
community.
F
F
F
F
F
4.2
is
a
city
should
preserve
the
authenticity
of
the
built
environment
and
celebrate
historic
places
under
this,
we'll
look
at
reviewing
and
updating
on
the
historic
preservation
Provisions
in
our
code,
encouraging
a
historic
overlay
districts
that
protect
historic
properties,
housing
and
neighborhoods
Consulting
with
the
state
and
other
historic
organizations
when
development
could
occur,
on
historic
or
archaeologically.
Significant
lands,
identifying
local
historic
preservation,
preservation
opportunities,
increasing
public
awareness
of
the
city's
history
and
benefits
of
historic
preservation
and
working
with
our
Harbor
Oaks
neighborhood
association
to
German.
F
If
there's
interest
in
pursuing
a
local
historic
district
number,
five
is
the
development
of
housing
options
to
diversify
housing
to
meet
the
needs
of
involving
needs
of
clear
water.
So
5.1
covers
our
housing,
affordability
initiatives.
This
is
again
another
large
objective
that
will
have
13
policies
and
they
will
cover
things
like
maintaining
sufficient
acreage
of
residentially
zoned
properties
with
varying
densities
and
locations
continue
to
provide
our
density
bonuses
for
a
horrible
housing.
Consider
establishing
missing
middle
and
senior
housing
density
bonuses
and
standards.
F
Considering
amending
our
code
to
enable
greater
housing
diversity
to
allow
things
like
accessory
dwelling
units
or
missing
middle
housing,
providing
additional
and
diverse
housing
options
integrated
into
neighborhoods
like
allowing
our
accessory
dwelling
units
in
all
our
zoning
districts
and
not
having
those
count
against
your
density.
F
Reviewing
our
code
to
determine
if
there
are
barriers
that
will
slow
delivery
of
housing
developments,
support
the
Clearwater
housing
authorities,
programs
for
affordable
housing
opportunities,
provide
information,
incentives
and
assistance
to
promote
housing
for
very
low
to
moderate
income.
F
So
we
want
to
look
at
identifying
residential
areas
that
are
at
risk
for
disinvestment
demolition,
demolition
or
Redevelopment,
and
prepare
programs
to
preserve
or
replace
them.
We
want
to
create
or
expand
programs
to
minimize
displacement
from
loss
of
rental
units
due
to
demolition
or
conversion.
F
F
5.3
is
our
strengthening
our
Outreach
or
partnership,
our
funding
and
capacity
to
deliver
Workforce
housing
and
affordable
housing.
This
includes
expanding
City
Outreach
to
low-income
and
housing,
and
secure
neighborhoods
partnering
with
public
and
private
entities
to
explore
funding
and
other
Financial
tools
to
support
Workforce
on
affordable
housing,
supporting
the
creation
of
Workforce
housing.
F
5.4
is
a
regulation
of
related
to
group
homes,
foster
care
facilities
and
special
needs
housing
subject
to
State
requirements.
Now
these
policies
are
being
carried
over
from
the
current
plan
and
we
are
currently
working
with
outside
Counsel
on
Fair
Housing
and
sober
homes,
so
we'll
hold
off
on
making
any
changes
to
this
objective
and
policies
until
we've
completed
that
work.
F
5.5
is
the
city
should
encourage
conservation,
Rehabilitation
and
preservation
of
existing
housing
stocks
through
public
and
private
resources.
This
should
include
using
all
available
funding
options
for
housing,
construction,
Rehabilitation
and
preservation,
involving
our
private
lending
institutions
and
development
programs
to
encourage
investment
in
affordable
housing.
F
Okay,
so
the
city's
current
comprehensive
plan
has
a
design
hierarchy
against
the
first
step
of
protecting
unique
areas
of
the
city,
so
the
framework
contained
and
the
new
plan
builds
upon
that
initial
hierarchy
and
will
allow
city,
council
and
others
to
focus
on
areas
with
certain
design
characteristics.
So
this
framework
map
was
created
as
part
of
our
preliminary
framework
plan
and
that
was
presented
to
the
Community
Development
board
back
in
October
of
2022..
F
So
as
part
of
this
map,
we
have
neighborhoods,
which
are
the
foundation
and
building
blocks
of
the
city
that
offer
a
wide
range
of
Housing
and
lifestyle
options
to
meet
the
needs
of
our
residents.
Our
neighborhood
senders
are
small-scale,
neighborhood
serving
commercial
nodes
and
corridors
are
the
main
commercial
corridors
through
the
city.
These
are
the
hubs
for
shopping,
dining
and
services
that
serve
the
daily
and
weekly
needs
of
our
nearby
neighbors
neighborhoods
mixture
centers.
F
F
Our
activity
centers
are
downtown
Clearwater
in
Clearwater
Beach,
and
they
are
the
city's
traditional
centers
of
living,
working
shopping
and
entertainments.
They
are
dense,
walkable
areas
that
serve
as
a
city's
primary
economic
engine
and,
lastly,
the
Hercules
employment
District,
which
is
located
Northeast
of
the
Air
Park,
is
the
city's
traditional
Center
for
smaller
scale,
manufacturing,
assembly
repairs
and
other
makers
Enterprises.
While
there's
only
currently
One
Employment
District,
which
is
Hercules.
There
is
a
new
study
that
will
allow
the
city
to
create
others
if
desired.
F
So,
as
part
of
this,
our
policies
will
include
reviewing
and
amending
that
Redevelopment
plan,
as
well
as
those
District
standards
to
guide
Redevelopment
and
public
investment.
We
want
to
continue
our
tax
increment
financing
program
and
Redevelopment
efforts
in
downtown
through
our
community
redevelopment
agency.
F
Also,
we
want
to
continue
using
the
destination,
Resort

7.1
is

F
In
the
county-wide
plan
to
promote
infill
and
Redevelopment
along
those
investment
corridors,
we
want
to
advocate
for
mixed-use
development
that
includes
a
combination
of
compatible
uses,
attractive,
neighborhoods
and
the
use
of
Transit,
promote
high

and
Corridor

to
identify
opportunities
for

Redevelopment
and

along
existing
corridors,
and
we
look
at
establishing
a
neighborhood
Main

program.
We
also
want
to
inventory
our
vacant
land
identify
target
areas
for
mixed-use
development
options.
F
F
Policies
with
this
are
we
want
to
ensure
that
the
provisions
of
the
US-19
District
encourage
Transit,
supportive
and
walkable
forms
of
development
and
upon
annexation
of
property
along
the
OS
19
Corridor.
We
want
to
make
sure
it's
designated
with
an
appropriate
future
land
use
consistent
with
our
three
categories
of
US,
19,
Regional,

and
we
also
want
to
continue
to
Market

and
7.3
goes
into
preserving
the
existing

plain
character
and
development
in

centers
and

F
In
this
we
want
to
utilize
the
county-wide
plans,
Scenic
and
non-commercial
Corridor,
designation,
to
limit
amendments
to
incompatible
future
land
use
designations.
We
also
want
to
limit
expansion
of
existing
commercial
uses
on
voucher
Road
intersections
with
Sunset
Point
and
Nursery
roads.
We
want
to
preserve
limited

F
F
Number
eight
is
a
new
goal
that
covers
industrial
lands
and
uses
in
our
Hercules
employment
district
and
also
areas
that
are
identified
in
the
Target
employment
and
Industrial
land
survey
for
teals.
It
was
done
by
forward
Pinellas,
so
we
put
one
states
that
we
need
to
update
our
comprehensive
plan
to
be
consistent
with
the
county
right
rules
based
on
the
accepted
deals.
That's
currently
going
through
the
process
of
being
improved
by
the
for
Pinellas,
and
once
that's
approved,
we
will
be
able
to
look
at
possible
amendments
to
be

F
So
policies
under
this
will
include
mapping

preserve
these
areas,
and
also
supporting

this
includes

The
city
should
support

of

redevelopment
area
plan.
This
is
moving
forward
to
the
County
on
May
23rd
and
should
be
adopted
at
that
point.
F
The
policies
under
this
include

programming
and
Redevelopment

through
our
community

agency.
Reviewing

evaluating
the
creation
of

F
A
F
Necessarily
changes:
that's
the
the
existing
land
use
versus
future
land
use
or
two
different
things:
existing
land
use
of
what
is
actually
on
the
property
right
now,
right,
Nutri
land
uses
with
what
we
use
to
guide
the
growth
management.
So
if
it
could
have
a
single-family
house
on
it,
but
have
a
future
land
yourself,
commercial.
Just
because
that's
the
way
it's
been
programmed,
and
so
that's
one
of
our
non-conformities
that
we
look
for
and
possibly
address,.
G
F
I,
don't
know
that
19
was
identified
as
that.
It's
the
mixed
youth
centers,
we're
looking
at
the
neighborhood
centers
and
the
corridors.
Four
walkable
areas
19
is
more
looked
at
as
an
auto
oriented
place,
so
we're
looking
at
Cross
access
between
Parcels
to
make
sure
there's
connectivity
for
vehicles
tracking
people
from
getting
back
on
19
if
possible,.
G
Expanding
you
were
talking
about
making
more
affordable
housing
in
this
expansion.
Is
there
going
to
be
if
I
buy
a
piece
of
land
or
whatever
and
I
are
in
an
apartment
building?
Are
there
any
Stuart
criteria?
Is
there
something
in
there
that
states
that
they
have
to
provide
50
percent
based
on
a
sliding
scale
of
affordable
housing?
F
At
this
point
we
don't
have
an
inclusion,
inclusionary
zoning,
so
we
cannot
require
affordable
housing,
but
there
are
Provisions
from
state
code
that
will
have
some
restrictive
things
on
there
about
the
amount
of
affordable
housing
at
certain
income
levels.
If
you
want
to
take
advantage
of
those
opportunities,
yeah.
G
By
Sunset
Point
Road,
there
they
bought
out
all
those
mobile
home
parks
up
there
and
the
medium
rent
up
there
for
a
two
bedroom
is
well
over
two
grand
I
mean
and
they're
that's
the
cheapest,
and
it's
been
ridiculous
right
now.
So.
A
E
E
We've
had
multiple
projects
that
have
been
approved
that
had
the
available
housing
bonus,
so
it's
definitely
helped
developers
and
in
downtown
there's
a
lot
more
flexibility.
So
we
have.
We
have
a
project
right
now.
That's
in
the
site
plan
review
process
that
I
don't
think
they're
availing
themselves
because
they
didn't
need
to
and
they
had
plenty
of
density.
E
C
F
H
I
Economic
Development
and
housing
director
I'm
not
familiar
with
that
particular
project,
but
there
are
numerous
challenges
with
affordable
and
Workforce
housing
and
most
of
those
challenges,
aside
from
subsidies
and
and
most
of
the
jurisdictions
I
think
there
are
five
jurisdictions
within
Pinellas
County,
inclusive
of
the
County
St
Pete
Largo
Pinellas
Park
City
of
Clearwater.
They
can
provide
direct
subsidy
because
we
get
allocations
from
fed
and
state
for
to
do
so,
and
the
biggest
challenge
with
rental,
affordable
and
Workforce
housing
is
that
you
have
monitoring
requirements
over
at
the
affordability
period
And.
I
So
unless
you're
a
developer,
who
is
in
that
space,
it's
not
terribly
attractive
for
them
to
commit
to
15
to
30
years
of
monitoring
requirements
to
ensure
that
the
tenants
are
bailing
themselves
with
those
affordable
units
in
fact
need
those
income
qualifications
that
can
sometimes
be
a
barrier.
The
industry
is
catching
up,
meaning
that
Consultants,
who
will
do
those
monitorings
are,
are
pursuing
those
developers
to
try
to
encourage
that.
I
So
it's
just
a
weird
time
in
that
Universe
of
affordable
and
Workforce
housing,
the
biggest
challenge
for
us
in
incentivizing,
Workforce
housing
and
when
I
refer
to
Workforce
housing.
That's
80
to
120
of
area
median
income.
There
are
two
significant
challenges:
one.
There
is
only
one
Statewide
funding
source
that
supports
the
development
of
Workforce
housing.
Our
federal
sources
are
limited
to
the
under
80
percent.
I
The
state,
the
state
funding
to
support
Workforce
housing,
referring
to
the
funding
that
we
receive
that
we
can
control,
has
a
very
specific
limitations
as
to
how
much
of
that
funding
can
go
to
Workforce
housing.
We
have
six
buckets
to
fill,
only
one
of
which
is
Workforce
housing
with
that
state
fund,
so
we're
Limited
in
terms
of
the
funding
that
we
can
provide.
I
Additionally,
although
the
live
local
act,
we're
still
doing
some
staff
analysis
on
that
Additionally.
The
way
the
property
appraiser
looks
at
affordable
versus
Workforce
housing
is
very
different,
so
under
state
law
that
was
in
place
until
March
29th,
affordable
housing
was
looked
at
from
the
property
appraisers
perspective
based
on
income
stream,
the
rent
rates
for
for
Workforce
housing.
It's
the
construction
value
like
any
other
residential
development,
so
property
taxes
were
very,
very
high
for
Workforce
housing
and
moderately
so
for
affordable.
I
I
think
we're
already
seeing
some
softening,
albeit
that
two
thousand
dollar
rent
rate
that
you've
just
mentioned
I,
would
not
suggest
as
a
softened
rate,
but
we
are
seeing
some
evidence
that
there's
some
climbing
vacancies,
because
production
has
skyrocketed
throughout
the
Tampa
Bay
Region,
so
I
think
some
natural
relief
is
coming.
The
bigger
challenge
for
us
is
the
entire
universe
of
what
we
call
naturally
occurring:
affordable
housing,
mobile
home
parks
being
the
primary
provider
of
NOAA.
I
G
I
just
had
one
other
question
as
far
as
bringing
investors
in,
and
investors
coming
into
this
area
and
into
clear
water
to
develop
all
this.
All
this,
our
they're,
going
to
be
any
kind
of
criteria
to
try
to
keep
the
investors
local
as
opposed
to
investors
coming
from
Idaho
and
are
going
to
build
this
and
then
disappear
just
so
that
they
have
a
you
know
more
of
an
interest
in
what
they're
doing
more
of
a
Hands-On
is.
That's
something
that's
considered
in
this
that
they
get
preferential.
A
A
Anybody
can
chime
in
at
any
time,
obviously
and
I
was
just
gonna
Piggyback
in
the
comments
that
you
were
talking
about
with
the
mobile
home
parks.
There's
that
5.22
some
of
this
stuff
sounds
good,
but
I'm
also
just
curious
how
it's
implemented
or
is
it
just?
You
know
we
have
a
requirement
for
property
owners
of
mobile
home
sites
to
ensure
adequate
mobile
home
sites
are
suitable
sites.
A
Is
it
the
or
suitable
sites
that
would
be
available,
which
would
be
affordable,
housing
and
apartments,
or
something
of
that,
because,
obviously
there's
no
new
mobile
home
parks
coming
up
that
I
know
of
in
the
city
of
Cleveland
hunter
or
even
Pinellas,
County
per
se,
that
you
would
have
adequate
suitable
of
like
kind
so
I
mean
it's?
Is
it
something
that's
just
in
there
I,
don't
know
how
we
Implement
that,
or
is
it
just
that,
okay,
mobile
home
Guys
somebody
buys
the
property
and
they
just
wait
for.
A
A
To
objective
1.55
you
have
in
here
it
says
the
maintain
and
enhance
existing
landscape
medians
throughout
the
city.
Obviously
our
causeways
and
such
I
mean
are
we
talking
to
have
all
public
medians
enhanced
throughout
the
city,
I
mean
I
know
that
we
have
areas
that
have
obviously
reclaimed
water
already
put
in,
but
they're,
not
even
on
so
I.
A
Don't
know
if
that,
but
then
you
get
into
maintenance
of
these
areas
too,
which
is
an
ongoing
cost
on
stuff
like
that,
but
I
mean
to
do
the
initial
outlay
to
plant
trees
to
do
irrigation
systems
to
put
them
in.
But
when
you
do
all
that
now
we
got
and
I
don't
know
where
that
is
now
it
used
to
be
under
Parks
and
Recreation,
or
something
was
maintaining
a
lot
of
this
and
I.
Don't
know
if
that's
now
on
to
Public
Works,
and
not
that
that's
for
this
discussion.
B
I
just
had
a
question:
I'm
I've
been
able
to
attend
so
several
of
the
public
forums.
Tonight,
it's
really
really
important.
I
appreciate
the
way
the
staff
has
reached
out
to
the
community
and
invited
the
community
to
participate.
B
Not
some
of
these
sessions
have
been
very
well
attended,
but
but
at
least
you
know
we're
involving
the
public
and
which
I
think
is
incredibly
and
then
and
then
so
I've
heard
some
of
the
comments
at
those
sessions
and
then
but
I
know
you've
gotten
feedback
through
the
website
and
this
morning,
so
I'm
I'm,
just
kind
of
interested
in
in
what
new
things
are
in
this
particular
section
that
you
might
say
that
was
were
put
in
or
added
because
it
was
a
strong
public
interest
in
in
adding
these
new
things
to
the
to
the.
F
I
think
the
tree
protection
Intrigue
canopy
were
a
result
of
what
we've
heard
in
recent
history.
For
that
also
the
neighborhood
section,
we
got
a
lot
of
feedback
that
were
focused
on
Clearwater
Beach
in
downtown
and
the
neighborhoods
aren't
getting
enough
attention.
So
we
created
an
entire
goal
section
just
to
cover
our
neighborhood
for
the
preservation
and
planning.
A
I
said
one
last
one:
an
objective:
6.3
actually
6.33.
A
E
F
All
right,
our
Mobility
chapter,
provides
guidance
on
related
to
improving
the
performance
of
our
roadway
Network,
increasing
travel,
safe
safety
and
destination,
accessibility,
promoting
walking
biking
and
Transit
use
as
safe
and
convenient
alternative
to
driving
and
improving
connections
to
local
and
Regional
employment
centers.
So
our
goals
and
objectives
and
policies
from
this
chapter
came
from
our
current
Transportation
element,
as
well
as
future
land
use
and
Recreation
open
space
elements.
F
So
our
first
green
covers
our
City's
Transportation
Network,
another
large
objective
that
covers
15
policies.
So
this
one's
going
to
be
maintaining
our
acceptable,
Transportation
Network
performance,
while
maintaining
a
multimodal
transportation
system
that
improves
mobility
and
safety
for
all
users.
F
F
We
look
at
the
creation
of
an
expanded
transportation
service
options
to
service
our
traditionally
vulnerable
populations
and
look
at
strategies
to
connect
our
under
service
underserved,
neighborhoods
and
populations
to
our
Trail
Networks
three
looks
at
research,
development,
deployment
of
technological
applications
and
projects
to
support
things
like
our
connected
Vehicles,
enhanced
mobility
and
safety.
So
this
will
look
at
utilizing
our
5G
to
expand
the
city's
fiber
Network
for
enhanced
traffic
and
parking
management,
plug
your
ways
to
support
a
connected
autonomous
vehicles.
F
Number
four
is
continuing
to
plan
and
Implement
improvements
to
our
transportation
system
through
our
that
were
recommended
by
our
green
print
2.0
and
those
include
look
at
improvements
to
increase
the
use
of
Transit,
walking
and
cycling.
Reducing

emissions
by
converting
the

Fleet,
expanding

for
new

and
Redevelopment
and
researching
and

standards
that
aim
to

Heat
five
looks
at
their
safety
as
Number
One
Transportation
priority
and
committing
to
a
vision,
zero
approach.
F
F
We
want
to
look
at
education
and
enforcement
activities
to
and
are
identified
as
a
crash,
Hot
Spot
areas.
We
want
to
focus
our
improvements
on
our
high
Injury
Network
roadways.
Look
at
implementing
our
complete
streets
and
redesigned
roadways.
F
States,
the
the
city
should
ensure
the
code.
Our
premium
development
code
should
promote
travel
safety
and
support
multimodal
Mobility.
We
want
to
evaluate
our
code
for
opportunities
to
include
and
enhance
safety
measures
for
vehicle,
Staffing,
vehicular
and
pedestrian
connections,
circulation,
Cross,
Personal
access,
I'm,
going
to
review
and
update
our
code
to
address
multimodal
or
new
forms
of
transportation
like
our
e-bikes,
our
Scooters
or
electric
vehicles,
and
we'll
look
at
the
feasibility
of
Permitting
a
low-speed
non-motorized
vehicle
like
a
golf
cart
to
operate
on
City
roads.
F
Objective
objective
number
one
is
designing
future
improvements
to
our
transportation
corridors,
to
support
multi-mobility,
multi-motor,
Mobility,
Place,
making
land
use
and
economic
development
I
notice.
We
want
to
establish
and
Implement
priority
recommendations
from
complete
streets
for
Clear
Water
implementation
plan.
We
want
to
look
at
Pilot
or
quick,
build
projects
on
roadways
to
analyze
operational
effects
of
complete
Street
techniques.
F
We
want
to
look
at
establishing
complete
Street
design
standards
in
our
code.
We
want
to
create
internal
guidelines
and
policies
to
assist
in
determining
which
roadways
should
prior
obviously
prioritize
for
complete
streets.
We
want
to
approve
access
safety
and
walkability
through
improved
pedestrian
and
bicycle
connections,
and
enhanced
Transit
number
two
is
encouraging:
incentivizing
incentivizing
Investments
that
support
increased
levels
of
internal
trip,
capture,
reducing
vehicle
trips
and
Miles
traveled,
and
promoting
walking
and
biking
as
an
alternative
to
driving.
F
F
We
want
to
promote
education
and
awareness
programs
to
ensure
the
physical
safety
of
our
non-motorized
users.
We
want
to
include
use
our
Parks
and
Rec
master
plan
to
guide
development
of
new
and
enhanced
trail
system.
We
want
to
prioritize
our
pedestrian
safety
along
sidewalks
and
crosswalks
and
prioritize
the
use
of
the
county
and
City
Trail.
This
is
an
alternate
mode
of
transportation.
F
I
will
look
at
opportunities
to
improve
the
city-owned
portion
of
the
Pinellas
Trail
through
downtown
to
increase
usage,
and
we
want
to
continue
to
explore
options
to
expand
the
operational
hours
of
the
Pinellas
Trail
and
lastly,
on
this
one.
The
city
should
support
development
of
frequent
high
quality
and
reliable
transportation,
Transit
Network.
So
this
we're
going
to
look
at
prioritizing
capital
investment
that
supports
Transit
use
and
improves
our
Transit
stop
accessibility.
F
We
want
to
actively
participate
and
support
Transit
feasibility
and
project
activities.
We
want
to
explore
opportunities
to
promote
a
more
intense
walkable
and
Transit
supportive
developments.
F
B
F
Clearwater
Airpark
this
one
is:
we
want
to
support
the
long-range
planning
for
maintenance,
Improvement
and
possible
expansion
of
the
Clearwater
Air
Park.
Under
this,
we
want
to
continue
to
implement
the
2020
airport
master
plan,
complete
an
update
to
that
Master
Plan
by
2040
and
review
any
proposed
developments
to
shoot
to
ensure
they
do
not
conflict
with
that
Master
Plan
and
goal
four
covers
safe
and
efficient
movement
and
delivery
of
goods
throughout
the
city.
This
is
where
we
want
to
ensure
our
delivery
service
access
is
considered.
E
F
Planning
to
serve
new
development
and
Redevelopment,
we
want
to
ensure
our
code
addresses
safety
and
functionality
for
delivery
services.
We
want
to
evaluate
existing
and
proposed
truck
routes
to
ensure
safe
and
efficient
movement
of
goods,
while
protecting
neighborhoods
I
want
to
evaluate
potential
areas
for
on-street
to
loading
or
delivery
zones
on
Clearwater
Beach
and
in
downtown
and
I
will
just
close
this
out.
Then
our
next
steps
are.
We
do
still
have
two
more
public
sessions
coming
up.
F
We
will
present
the
full
draft
plan
at
June
27th
at
our
North
Greenwood
Recreation
Center
in
June
29th
at
Countryside
Library
to
those
are
available
to
the
Philadelphia,
represent
the
entire
plan
and
then
beyond
that
we
will
be
coming
to
the
Community
Development
board.
F
A
A
Shows
our
city,
roads,
County,
Roads
and
state
roads
running
through
the
city
of
Clearwater.
We
have
quite
a
few
roads
that
are
not
City
roads
running
through
the
city
of
Clearwater
and
when
those
improvements,
when
it's
determined,
an
improvement
of
some
sort,
is
to
be
done
on
a
state
or
mostly
a
County
Road
system.
So
just
curious
and
there's
some
privilege
in
here
on
it,
but
on
the
county
road.
A
E
A
Them
saying
hey,
you
want
to
take
the
road
over
and
Own
It
Go
For
It
city
of
Clearwater,
but
is
there
any
way
of
co-oping
some
of
these
improvements
or
doing
something
I
mean
I,
know
it's
all
funds,
but
they
retain
ownership
or
you
know
where
we
see
a
need
for
an
improvement
on
a
road.
Do
we
bring
it
to
them,
or
is
it
something
that.
E
That
we
can
collaborate
on
I,
don't
know
what
teeth
we
have
the
annex
property.
We
typically
take
in
right
away,
that's
in
the
county,
but
the
major
Network
in
the
county.
We
have
not
done
that
when
we
have
talked
about
getting
improvements
on
certain
County
roadways.
The
response
was,
if
you'd
like
to
take
it
over
again,
you
take
it
over
so
I
mean.
Unfortunately,
no
one's
from
engineering
is
here.
I,
don't
know
how
how
much
they
actually
work
with
our
staff,
but
I
do
know
like
when
the
state
has
had
projects.
We're
involved.
C
D
C
F
I
know
something
we've
considered,
but
then
this
is
just
the
overarching
policy.
It
will
then
inform
our
code
decision,
which
is,
of
course,
the
next
step
once
we
get.
The
cop
plan
is
to
look
at
what
code
amendments
we.
D
D
F
We
have
limited
data
that
was
used
as
part
of
this,
but
most
of
our
our
most
of
the
goals
and
objections
on
policies
related
to
PSD
are
going
to
be
implant
implementation,
they're
not
going
to
show
up
in
Mobility.
So
we
do
have
data
and
we
will
have
some
things
related
to
our
relationship
with
bsta.
But
a
lot
of
what
is
determined
for
PSTA
is
dictated
by
them.
H
F
Well,
my
most
of
what's
in
the
plan
is
considering
things
or
evaluating
things.
It's
not
necessarily
that
we're
going
to
do
things
we're
looking
at
complete
streets.
It's
not
just
looking
at
Transit
is
looking
at
pedestrian
and
non-motorized
vehicles
as
well.
So
it's
one
of
the
many
aspects
of
what
we're
going
to
look
at
when
we're
looking
at
our
transportation
network,
but
it
is
something
to
consider
and
and
but
but
the
policy
this
is
still
again
overarching.
We
haven't
gotten
to
the
details
of
things.
This
will
inform
future
decisions
that
we
make
can.
D
The
constant
conversation
you
know
without
higher
frequency
require
a
writer
counterweight
level.
D
D
B
H
Don't
know
if
they're
going
to
work
or
they're
going
to
the
grocery
store
or
you're
having
you
know,
everybody
deliver
everything
to
everybody
now,
where
they're
not
writing
as
much
I'm
just
interested
in
all
that
data
and
how
it's
compiled
in
here,
because
you
have
elements
relative
to
delivery.
You
know
delivering
by
the
air
now
coming
up.
B
Well,
I
I
can't
speak
to
PSTA
and
what
their
numbers
are.
I
mean.
There's
I
know,
there's
been
news
stories
that
maybe
their
ridership
has
dropped
so
I'm
here
in
the
last
year
or
two
overall
I
can
speak
to
Jolly
Trolley,
which
I'm
very
familiar
with,
and
we
had
very
strong
months
I
think
we
had
45
000
riders
in
the
month
of
April
alone,
so
that
tourist
Transportation
through
Jolly
trolleys,
strong
as
seven
or
bend
I,
think
I.
B
Think
the
the
biggest
shift
I've
seen
just
from
personal
observation
and
it's
anecdotal
but
I've
heard
other
folks
talk
about
too,
is
the
electric
bicycles
a
lot.
A
lot
of
people
are
using
or
bicycling
older
folks
who
would
never
have
pedaled
up
the
causeway
bridge,
but
you
see
so
many
more
of
those
and
I
see
so
many
employees
of
beach
businesses
out
there
running
to
and
from
work,
particularly
restaurants
and
those
electric
bicycles.
So
I
think
that
part
of
this
is
to
accommodate
that.
G
My
Duty
Officers
or
volunteer
officers
that
are
going
to
be
monitoring
these
Trails
because
a
lot
of
people
don't
certain
areas
of
the
trails
that
go
from
Gulf
to
Bay
South
down
I
forget
Morningside,
neighborhood
and
areas
like
that
that
are
in
the
FPL
Duke
Energy
easement.
There's
a
lot
of
MD
odd
areas
in
there
where
a
lot
of
people
are
apprehensive
on
using
that
trail.
G
Material
goes
underneath
at
one
point:
USA
I'm,
not
real,
hip
I'm
going
underneath
us
19.,
you
know
to
get
on
the
trail,
so
is
there
gonna?
Is
that?
Because
that's
going
to
be
their
budget,
then
too
we're
promoting
more
use
of
these
trails
and
sidewalks
you're
going
to
need
more
people
to
make
sure
that
the
people
that
are
on
your
trails
that
either
lit
in
you
know
decent
areas
and
they're
safe
at
the
same
time,
I
would
think.
D
I
would
say
that
there's
a
landed
conversation
now
of
not
necessarily
to
say
I'm,
going
to
I'm
going
to
bed
everything,
probably
from
the
county.
Why?
Because
that's
power
trails
are
really
to
function
because
they
were
primarily
recreational.
D
G
D
That
so
I
know
that
those
conversations
are
taking
place.
I've
been
released
to.
D
G
In
but
I
I
was
involved
in
the
construction,
kpop
Wetlands
Park
and
that's
one
of
the
ones
that
ties
in
your
East
West
Trail.
So
when
you
go
through
K-pop,
you
do
have
the
opportunity
to
go
on
the
east
west
trail
that
takes
you
there
to
go
over
McMullen
Booth.
Then
it
goes
behind
the
ball
fields
and
they're
in
debt
before
I
used
to
walk
around
all
the
time.
