On April 10, 2010, the Starlight Tower Association honored outgoing St. Pete Beach Commissioner Christopher Leonard with a Certificate of Appreciation in recognition of his years of service on the St. Pete Beach city commission. Located on the north end of Upham Beach, the Starlight Tower building has suffered the effects of chronic beach erosion and storm damage for decades, and Commissioner Leonard's dedication to beach preservation and storm protection for the city's upland properties earned him the respect and admiration of Starlight Tower's owners and residents. In addition to Commissioner Leonard's support of the many City/County/State beach preservation projects that have come before the City Commission over the past years, particular recognition was made of Commissioner Leonard's frequent personal visits to the Starlight Tower building to view first-hand the status of beach restoration, the progression of Upham Beach's erosion problems and the impact of such problems on upland property owners.The Certificate of Appreciation presented to Commissioner Leonard read as follows:
"This Certificate is hereby presented to Christopher Leonard by the owners and residents of Starlight Tower in recognition and appreciation of his exceptional service as Commissioner of the City of St Pete Beach, Florida. The People of Starlight Tower express their particular appreciation of Commissioner Leonard's careful attention to their concerns about Beach Preservation and Storm Protection, and of his unwavering dedication to the protection of their lives, their homes, and the enduring beauty of their community."
