McWilliams, P.E. Cory Dorman, P.E., PTOEJ Date: April 12, 2021 Subject: Southeast Overtown/Park West Development of Regional Impact (SEOPW DRI) Overall Development Credit Rebalancing Analysis The purpose of this memorandum is to summarize the proposed rebalancing of the Southeast Overtown/Park West (SEOPW) Development of Regional Impact (DRI) development program using the land use exchange rates defined in the governing documentation from Increment III of the DRI. The current development program balances within the DRI include both surpluses and overages of development credits with the land uses. The land use exchange rates from Increment III of the DRI were utilized to convert development credits from land uses with surplus credits to land uses with overages in credits while identifying credits needed for future anticipated development. The following sections summarize the rebalancing of the Southeast Overtown/Park West development program. CURRENT DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM The current status of development credits within the SEOPW DRI was provided by City of Miami staff. Table 1 summarizes the development credit balances for each land use within the SEOPW DRI. As Table 1 indicates, there is an overage of 741,785 square feet of office space, 280,521 square feet of retail space, and 18,123 square feet of conference center within the west section of the SEOPW DRI. There are surpluses for all land uses within the east section of the SEOPW DRI.

PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM Based on input from City of Miami and SEOPW Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) staff, the land use exchange rates were utilized to rebalance the development credits between land uses in order to eliminate overages in the west section of the SEOPW DRI and provide development credit surpluses for future anticipated development. The exchanges are summarized below: • 2,115,216 square feet was exchanged to Office (west) from Office (east), Hotel (east), and Hotel (west) • 778,318 square feet of Retail (west) was exchanged from Retail (east), Hotel (west), and Residential (west) • 318 Hotel (west) rooms were exchanged from Residential (west) • 347 Residential (east) units and 6,432 Residential (west) units were exchanged from Office (east), Office (west), Hotel (east), and Conference Center (east) • 118,123 square feet of Conference Center (west) was exchanged from Hotel (west) and Conference Center (east) Detailed exchange calculations are provided in Attachment B.

CONCLUSION The SEOPW DRI development program was rebalanced using the land use exchange rates defined in the governing documentation from Increment III of the DRI. The land use exchange rates were utilized to convert development credits from land uses with surplus credits to land uses with overages while identifying credits needed for future anticipated development. Based on input from City of Miami and SEOPW CRA staff, the proposed rebalanced development program includes an increase of 1,460,653 square feet of Office (west), 778,318 square feet of Retail (west), 347 Residential (east) units, 3,701 Residential (west) units, and 118,123 square feet of Conference Center (west) and a reduction of 2,233,884 square feet of Office (east), 430,000 square feet of Retail (east), 1,752 Hotel (east) rooms, 117 Hotel (west) rooms, and 200,000 square feet of Conference Center (east).

We strive to provide assistance for the unemployed and under -employed adults and youth in the Overtown community helping them gain the professional skills they will need to find employment, accelerate their job search and build confidence through ongoing training sessions, one-on-one career coaching and networking in a supportive environment. History of Suited for Success Founded in 1994, Suited for Success answered a vital need for career -building initiatives after welfare reform was instituted. The Welfare Reform Act in 1996 set time restrictions for recipients on public assistance, which in turn forced heads of households into low -wage jobs. Because of the rapid increase in the number of poor, working adults, they had become a much underserved segment of society. Through our programs and services, Suited for Success was able to answer the needs of a growing, poverty-stricken workforce. Suited for Success has seen over 60,000 individuals since inception through its men's, women's (Dress for Success Miami), military veteran (Vets for Success), and youth programs. Program Description As a part of our program, job training classes are held in Overtown as well as at partnering agencies throughout Miami -Dade County. Our skills training course prepares clients on a variety of topics: Managing the job search; Interviewing skills; Proper dress; Resume writing; Financial literacy; Mock interviews. Once training has been completed, clients are given an appointment to receive business attire for their job interview. Clients arrive at SFS by referral only from over 125 social service agencies, including homeless shelters, domestic violence shelters, and welfare -to -work job training centers. These partnering agencies refer clients to us while adhering to our strict referral criteria. In an average year, over 1,000 clients will be served by SFS. Approximately 50% of our clients are African -American, 45% are Hispanic and 5% are defined as "other" which includes Asian -American, Native American and those who don't define their background. Last year alone we provided services to 1,066 clients of which more than 370 adults and youth came from the Overtown community. Upon completion of the employment skills training course, clients receive an appointment at !E2 the SFS office to get them ready for their interviews. Trained volunteers provide one-on-one 3 help and select a wardrobe appropriate for a job interview. Our volunteers are trained to gently guide the clients through the selection process, making recommendations and m educating them on workplace expectations. L, In 2019, we launched a new Mobile Career Center program, made possible with a custom fitted RV donated by Simply Healthcare. With the new unit, we are able to take our suiting program to our partner training locations and provide those clients with their suitings on the same day, streamlining our process and getting clients interview -ready even faster. In the first four months of the program, we served 46 individuals with the unit. Packet Pg. 24 3.2.a Each client, be it man or woman, who comes to SFS receives personal attention and is treated with dignity and respect. Clients are encouraged to discuss their upcoming interview, professional presentation, child-care plans, and other concerns. Creating a positive environment for the client, SFS strives to stimulate self-confidence helping clients overcome the fears associated with job interviewing. Suited for Success wants to build upon our 25 successful years of providing programs that support economic and social development to low-income clients who are entering or returning to the workforce. When we assist a client with skills to enable them to feel more confident in their job search and ultimately find employment we are helping a future generation into systematic change. Everyday we work towards getting men, women and their children out of poverty and into self-sufficiency by providing a cadre of services to move them into self-sufficiency. Over the past several months, we have made necessary updates to our programs and operations in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. Our office and services were put on hold in March 2020, and staff began working remotely. In May 2020, we launched our first virtual workshop and opened our Virtual Career Center, providing one-on-one services to jobseekers across South Florida. Virtual workshops have continued weekly, and have garnered positive feedback, and we plan to incorporate this even after our in -person services resume. With unemployment spiking across industries due to business closures (both temporary and permanent) and furloughs, we opened these virtual services to the wider community of job seekers and case managers to address this urgent need. Operationally, we are reopening slowly and with added health and safety measures. We deep cleaned and sanitized our office, and equipped staff to work remotely. As we reopen, limited staff will be in the office to enable adequate social distancing. As we prepare to suit clients again, we have created new guidelines for client and staff safety, including limiting the number of clients seen per day, closing our dressing rooms, COVID surveys and temperature checks, providing hand sanitizer, masks and disposable socks, disinfecting between clients, and regular deep cleaning and sanitation of the entire office. We have also implemented new contactless donation procedures for safer intake of donated items. Suited for Success is requesting that the CRA consider our request for $190,000 per year to fund our program for 2020-21. This funding will enable us to continue our community training workshops, including the new virtual training, and to bolster our outreach efforts to the community. We would also like to be considered for a two-year renewal. With funding from the CRA we will be able to continue to meet the demands of the many M people and agencies that call upon us for assistance. This past year we have had referrals 9' from the following agencies located within the CRA boundaries: Transitions, Inc., Overtown Youth Center, YWCA, Camillus House, Urgent Inc., Better Way of Miami, NANA, Overtown Business Resource Center, MDC Hospitality Training Institute, Chapman Partnership, m Booker T. Washington Senior High School and Touching Miami with Love. These are only a partial list of the 125 agencies that refer clients to our office throughout the year. We have established relationships with Amazon, U.S. Customs and Border Patrol, and Capital One. In addition, Suited for Success is a member of the Overtown Children and Youth Coalition, working with community partners to enhance the services in Overtown for the underserved youth. Packet Pg. 25 3.2.a Our location in The Culmer Center, 1600 NW 3rd Avenue, in the heart of Overtown gives us access to nearby space and training rooms which enhance our ongoing training programs.

Human Resources of Miami, Inc. is the most qualified and the best choice for this project, mainly because we are located in the Southeast Overtown/Park West area and have been here for many years. We did not move to the area to take advantage of any governmental benefits, we are here solely to serve the community. Originally, in 1999, we helped this area by registering more than 300 women who wanted to work but could not find employment nor possessed the skills to interview. Human Resource Staffing assisted the young ladies with training and placement with entities that needed massive numbers of employees or waitress, custodians for hotels, and landscaping. We are a part of the community through our cooperation with several faith -based organizations, and visited apartments and local stores, going door to door, offering assistance to the dwellers, both spiritually and with counseling. Through our relationship with McDonald's Playworld Community Development, Inc., a community - based corporation, we have walked the streets, been in and out of One Stop/Workforce, distributing flyers and enrolling teenagers in school, placing them in daycares for "free care" for the children of the teenagers, and we have provided counseling to pregnant women in the shelters located in the Overtown area, as well. We can be relied upon to provide services to this area, because we have, and often without reimbursement or financial resources from anyone. Another reason why Human Resources of Miami, Inc. is uniquely qualified to provide street cleaning and maintenance services to the Overtown area, is because both the management and leadership of the company, were born in Miami, Florida, and lived in this community during some stage of their lives — they either attended school, attended church, rode the bus, walked through the streets, and survived, not overcome by the challenges of this uniquely burdened community. Again, we are a part of this community. During the years of 2005 thru 2010, most of Human Resources of Miami, Inc.'s efforts were directed towards developing a product that the union workers of Miami Dade County School Board would be able to provide at a low cost, to cover both health and other risks that this level of employee faces. After many attempts, this effort was not completed, since the primary person (my husband) passed in 2010. Thus, as we regrouped in 2010, we focused more on our original mission of assisting the low- income, deficiently skilled worker, with finding employment in a highly competitive and complex society, such as Miami, Florida. Since 2010, this contract, Overtown Enhancement Team Services Pilot Program, is consistent with our game plan of self -empowerment by the community. By hiring eleven (11) employees from the Overtown community, there will be a ripple effect experienced throughout the community, not to mention, the increased level of self-esteem, pride, confidence, and ability to contribute to each individual family's household. Human Resources of Miami, Inc. would like to be a part of this endeavor. 2 a� E 0 U a� L 0 Y U M m Packet Pg. 38 3.3.a a� The leaders of this proposed contract, retained by Human Resources of Miami, Inc., have leadership skills, as evidenced by their training, education, and experience, and will be able to manage and 0 operate the shift, starting from 8: 00 am until 3:00pm. Even though this project started as a one-year pilot program, but with our continued success over the past nine years, we are requesting that we o are provided funding for a period of two (2) years (July 5, 2021 to July 4, 2022 and July 5, 2022 to 4- J July 4, 2023) starting with the year 2021-2022 (will be our TENTH YEAR)!!!!

Our Enhancements or Changes to Scope of the Proiect for the FYE 2019/2020 Our enhancement to the Overtown Beautification Project will be the following: 1. Expand the function of the Crew Manager, to include more community outreach, counseling, job fairs, externships, internships, and job placement for 50% of the time employed and managing the o crew the balance of the time, serving as the liaison between the Contract Manager and CRA. 2. Empower the position of Crew Leader/Field Supervisor with the skills, ability and authority to manage the crew, as we nurture a second position to have supervisory responsibilities, serving as the Crew Supervisor/Truck Driver. 3. Increase hands on exposure to landscaping, environmental, and construction skills for the entire 3 team, by providing externships with Human Resources of Miami's Landscaping Division and other entities, in the Overtown community, organized and supervised by the Crew Manager. m 4. Expand the support services to the team, which will include one (1) hour weekly training, such as budgeting, credit counseling, drug -testing, life -skills counseling, and parenting skills, so that all trainees can transition from this part-time job to a more permanent, full-time employment within other parts of the community. The crew will also have one (1) hour per month scheduled for U_ community services, to assist with developing within them a desire to help the community and themselves, as we are training them to be leaders, supervised by the Crew Manager. E 9 U Q Packet Pg. 45 3.3.a 4. Applicants not hired will be maintained as a separate pool of individuals, whom we will counsel and perform assessments of their career options and their unmet needs socially, such as housing, medical, drug and alcohol dependency, educational deficiencies, to name a few. These persons will be referred to the appropriate community services for assistance. They will also serve as the "on call" data base for daily placement during the duration of the contract, if the originally hired individuals leave, quit, or are terminated. We estimate that we will assist (30) persons annually. 5. After completion of the program, all crew members should transition to external positions, preferably, full-time, and/or educational and vocational options, so that a new crew can become a part of the CRA Overtown Beautification team. Our goal is to train/hire, at a minimum, annually, fourteen (14) persons, eleven (11) per the contract and three (3) on call to address absences for the daily project needs. CONCLUSION Human Resources of Miami/Overtown Beautification Team is requesting $350, 000, which will allow us to maintain the activity level of 30 hours per employee and 35 hours for the crew manager. We will employ 11 persons with 3 alternates, for a total of 14 individuals. This amounts to a total of 365 hours weekly and 18,980 hours per the contract term. We will also assist21 otherpersons with community referrals and job placement. The costper participant for the entire cost of $350,000, therefore, is $18.44 per participant hour for the eleven (11) persons hired. Our goal will be to assist 30 persons in total annually. Human Resources of Miami/Overtown Beautification Team is requesting a five year renewal period to perform the contract is much less than the contribution to the community and residents, enhancing first, the environment, the employee (self-respect and self-worth), the economic input to the immediate Overtown environment, allowing the employee/trainees to spend cash to spend in the community with their families at the grocery stores, rental expenses, and general shopping.

(doing business as Hampton Art Lovers "HAL"), in an amount not to exceed $150,000.00 for the first year, with the option to renew for one additional one-year period, subject to funding availability, to underwrite costs associated with producing cultural programming and art exhibitions at the Historic Ward Rooming House for 2021-2023. hi addition, the attached Resolution authorizes HAL to carry over unused budget funds from fiscal year 2020- 2020 for use in fiscal year 2021 — 2022. The SEOPW CRA has been funding HAL for the past 3 years. Since 2018, HAL has been the proud operator of the Historic Ward Rooming House Gallery located in Overtown at 249 NW 9th Street, Miami, Florida 33136 and owned by the SEOPW CRA. The Historic Ward Rooming House functions as a centerpiece of the Historic Overtown Culture Entertainment District Master Plan. Built in the era of Overtown's historic heyday, when it was known as "Colored Town," the Ward Rooming House stands as a tribute to the history of the oldest historic black community in the City of Miami. As one of the few remaining buildings of its time, a seemingly ordinary rooming house becomes significant for the larger role it serves in preserving the history and architecture of Miami's black community. HAL engages the community through the arts, by hosting a traditional gallery alongside community events. HAL has been covered numerous times by the Miami Herald, Miami Times and National Media. HAL has hosted national personalities like Author and Professor Michael Eric Dyson and the General President of Alpha Phi Alpha and Chairman of the Council of Presidents of the National Pan -Hellenic Council, Dr. Everett Ward. HAL's exhibitions included the HAL curated show of the private art collection of Maya Angelou. Packet Pg. 64 3.5 In addition, HAL presents a curated panoramic experience annually at the Historic Ward Rooming Housing for Soul Basel which is during the week of Miami's Art Basel. That particular experience is named "Point Comfort", after the place in Virginia where the first Africans came ashore in America. In 2019, Point Comfort showcased the works of contemporary and appreciated artists such as Ernie Barnes, Leroy Campbell, Basil Watson, BUCK!, Phil Shung, Gil Ashby, Krystal Hart, Joel Gresham, and Musa Hixson. Due to a reduction in programming as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, HAL has a surplus of funds in budget that can be carried over to fiscal year 2021 -2022. The carryover funds would be used for the full return of the Point Comfort Art Fair.

The architects will use the existing condition drawings supplied by the client to make new background drawings -floor plans, elevations and sections. The project will be developed with the clients using a standard phased review and approval process. This will include programming, preliminary/schematic design, design development and construction documents. The design team will also coordinate with specialty restaurant equipment consultants and providers. All drawings will meet the requirements of the latest edition of the Florida Building Code.
