CLEARWATER —Nearly 17 months after a panel of urban planning experts presented an array of ambitious recommendations for reviving downtown Clearwater, city leaders have completed just under half of the 13 priority projects.
The city has so far created a stakeholder advisory group; launched an incubator to foster technology companies; built a science, technology, engineering and mathematics program at the Main Library; created a brochure to market vacant downtown properties; and examined the use of bonds for downtown development.
