Five-Year Consolidated Plan Meetings and Survey

2/10/2025

The city of Clearwater is preparing a Five-Year Consolidated Plan, including comprehensive neighborhood revitalization strategies, to create partnerships among the local government, the private sector, community organizations and neighborhood residents. The plan will include goals to address community development, housing, homelessness and special needs in the city’s neighborhoods.

The city is holding three community meetings to help prioritize needs and identify strategies that may be eligible for federal funding through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and HOME Investment Partnerships Program under the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). These federal programs are intended to benefit low- to moderate-income residents.

You can view information about a crime that has happened in your neighborhood on the police department’s Community Crime MapI am going to ask in one of my meetings with PD this week what the delay between when criminal activity happens vs. when they are posted.

Several officers work in these areas as well, but below are the contacts I have for each of the districts. You can find which district you are in by viewing the Patrol Division webpage. I will be meeting with each of them this week and next to make sure they are the best contacts for residents to reach out to.

District 1: Lt. Dean, shante.dean@myclearwater.com
District 2: Lt. Baginski, steven.baginski@myclearwater.com
District 3: Lt. Ziermann, christopher.ziermann@myclearwater.com
 
There’s also a community police team and they can be reached by filling out an online form at Community Outreach Support Form.
