The Belleview Biltmore is scheduled to close for extensive renovations this spring, but a court panel has agreed to hear arguments in a lawsuit which could delay the project, which is estimated to cost $100 million.
In 2008 the Sixth Judicial Circuit Court accepted a Writ of Certiorari filed by 3 Belleair residents who allege the Town Commission showed favoritism toward the Biltmore owners, Legg Mason Real Estate Investors, during a hearing regarding requests for variances to existing town codes.
Another hearing is set for March 3rd at Clearwater City Hall concerning the Cabana Club, the Biltmore's beach property, which is also scheduled for renovations. Neighbors of the Cabana Club claim the proposed restaurant and 38-room hotel is too large for the site and will cause parking problems. The hearings have already been postponed twice since December.
