Clearwater City Council to Consider Medical Clinic Conversion on Turner Street

Clearwater residents should note an upcoming City Council discussion regarding a proposed medical clinic conversion at 375 Turner Street in the downtown district. The project, identified as FLD2025-10026, seeks Flexible Development approval to transform an existing building into a medical clinic within the Institutional (I) District.

The proposal, which is currently 'Agenda Ready' for a future City Council meeting, involves several flexibility requests. Developers are asking for reduced off-street parking, citing a parking demand study, and reduced interior landscaping and landscape buffers along property lines. These requests fall under a Comprehensive Landscape Program, as outlined in Community Development Code Section 2-1204.A., Section 3-1401.C. and Sections 3-1202.D., E. and G., Article 4, Division 4.

The existing building at 375 Turner Street does not exceed 35 feet in height, and the modified parking lot is planned to include 57 off-street parking spaces. This Level Two Application will require careful consideration from Councilmembers David Allbritton, Michael Mannino, and Ryan Cotton, along with Mayor Bruce Rector and Vice Mayor Lina Teixeira, as they weigh the community's needs against development standards.

Residents interested in learning more about this specific action item or other upcoming discussions can review the full agenda when it becomes available for a future City Council meeting. City Council meetings typically occur approximately every 18 days at 6:00 PM.
