About this file
This file contains City Council Policies from the City of Clearwater, Florida, adopted on December 19, 2023, establishing guidelines for holiday decorations and related municipal naming recognition and park renaming procedures. The holiday decorations policy limits city-funded or city-installed holiday decorations to specific geographic areas: the Downtown Core, Memorial Causeway, South Gulfview to the southern point of Beach Walk, Mandalay south of Acacia, and the business district on Sand Key. The policy establishes parameters for where the city will invest resources in seasonal displays, creating defined zones for holiday lighting and decor installation.
The document also establishes supplementary policies regarding library donor naming recognition and park renaming procedures. The library naming policy restricts building names to geographical or functional designations only, excluding donor recognition for primary facilities, while permitting discrete engraved plaques for donated collections, equipment, or furnishings with consistent aesthetic standards. The park renaming policy requires that requests to rename existing parks originate through City Council motion, followed by an advertised public hearing conducted by the Parks & Recreation Board before final City Council consideration. These policies collectively establish municipal governance standards for public spaces, commemorative naming, and seasonal programming within Clearwater's jurisdiction.

CITY OF CLEARWATER
CITY COUNCIL POLICIES
Adopted 12-19-23
CITY COUNCIL POLICY
LEISURE
Holiday Decorations. Holiday decorations along the rights-of-way to be installed or paid for by the city will be limited to the Downtown Core, Memorial Causeway, South Gulfview to the southern point of Beach Walk, Mandalay south of Acacia and the business district on Sand Key.
8-1
Library Donor Naming Recognition. The following guidelines govern donor recognition with regard to naming buildings, areas, rooms, collections, furnishings and equipment:
1. Library building names will have geographical or functional names only and will not be subject to availability for donor recognition. Clearwater Main Library and North Greenwood Branch meet the policy guidelines, but John Doe Main Library does not.
2. Naming of library internal functional areas, rooms, and major collections is the prerogative of the City Council.
3. Collections of materials, equipment or furnishings, which are accepted as gifts by the Library Director, and/or funded by individuals, corporations or foundations, may be recognized by a discrete engraved plaque mounted on or near the gift as appropriate, with the name of the donor displayed. For example, "the John Doe collection of Illuminated Manuscripts" or "Computer Equipment for Research Provided and Maintained by the John Doe Corporation."
4. All signs and plaques printed with names of donors will be of similar appearance and will be consistent with the architectural design and interior decoration of the building.
8-2
Renaming City Parks. The Parks & Recreation Board will not consider any requests to rename existing parks unless requested by motion of the City Council (per Resolution 09-31). The Board will conduct an advertised public hearing for the proposal and formulate a recommendation to the City Council for a final decision.
