Les Porter of Porter Development told Tampa Bay 28 last month the project is about expanding access to recreation."It's not about the developer against the neighbors, it's about the revolution of recreation, and does the golf course serve as many residents as it could vs the sports and recreation camp and how many it could serve there's a ton of support for the project," Porter said. Porter also said the development would include cleaning up an old landfill site and would contribute more than $2 million in property taxes to the city."About $600-700 thousand a year will flow to the general fund of the city of Clearwater, so that is a big positive, especially now," Porter said. On Monday, staff involved with the project also said the proposal would generate tourism in the community.However, neighbors say the development would disrupt the surrounding community."We will have traffic, noise, lights; we don't have that today. I can hear basketball on the Marymont Park at sunset," neighbor Beth Davis said.Davis and other neighbors are calling on the council to reopen the bidding process rather than move forward with the current proposal."Why would we encroach on a residential neighborhood? We shouldn't," Davis said. City staff are recommending the Council accept the proposal and then solicit additional bids during a 30-day window before deciding which bid is best.Clearwater City Council is set to make a decision on the proposal on Thursday during a public meeting that begins at 6 p.m. That would not be the final vote on the project but would initiate next steps; more public meetings would follow. ...read more read less
