Paint the Pavement Application

If you require assistance with this application, please contact neighborhoods@myclearwater.com or 727-562-4559.


Please allow three weeks for application review. If approved, the City of Clearwater will provide and enforce a Maintenance of Traffic Plan (MOT), which is a plan for the redirection of traffic on the actual installation day.

Have you checked with the city’s Traffic Operations Manager at Traffic.Operations@myclearwater.com that your selected intersection is eligible?


If not, please do not go any further with this application until doing so.

  • Functionally classified as a residential street and not a collector or arterial road
  • Under the city of Clearwater’s jurisdiction (i.e., not a State, County, or private road)
  • No more than 4 travel through lanes
  • Posted speed limit of 35 mph or less

I understand that:


  1. I understand that following the completion of this project, I am required to submit photos of the finished project to neighborhoods@myclearwater.com.
  2. I understand that by submitting this application, I give the City of Clearwater the right to use images of the inter section for promotional purposes.
  3. Paintings in the public right-of-way become City property immediately upon completion; however, the maintenance and repair of the painting is the responsibility of the applicant.
  4. The applicant is responsible for all ongoing maintenance of the painted work, including touch-ups, graffiti removal and repainting due to street maintenance. Every time the intersection needs to be closed for touch-ups or general maintenance the Paint the Pavement Street Closure application must be resubmitted.
  5. The applicant is responsible for repainting or completely removing the paint at the end of the two-year permit period.
  6. The applicant will bear the cost of all maintenance, repair and removal.
  7. Street repair, maintenance, or construction may cause damage to the project. Any costs to repair or replace the mural will not be borne by the city of Clearwater.
  8. I will continue to be an excellent steward of my painted intersection by retouching your design as necessary and reporting any issues that may arise to the city of Clearwater’s Traffic Operations at traffic.operations@myclearwater.com.
  9. If city maintenance crews notice that a mural is looking a little worse for the wear, the city will email the project team to request that the mural be retouched.
  10. Murals that are not appropriately maintained during the two-year permit period must be removed.
