The city of Clearwater will be opening access for residents and business owners of Island Estates only. Business owners and residents may return to their homes and inspect their businesses. Island Estates residents and business owners must prove their residency or property interest to get through the checkpoint.
To keep the re-entry process moving as smoothly and quickly as possible, it is preferred that residents or business owners show their barrier island re-entry passes to expedite the process. If residents or business owners don’t have a re-entry pass, re-entry may be delayed. Employees of Island Estates businesses will also be given access with proper identification.
Residents of Clearwater Beach and Sand Key will not be able to gain access through the checkpoint. Re-entry to the beach and Sand Key will not happen until conditions are deemed safe.
City crews are working around the clock to make conditions safe enough for reopening. We appreciate your patience.
