As a result, the CRA and the City of Miami executed a Memorandum of Understanding establishing the SEOPW CRA as the "developer" of the DRI; The DRI includes a specified development program for development within the east and west sides of the DRI. Since the implementation of Increment III of the DRI, the SEOPW CRA has found that it is necessary to adjust the development program between the east and west sides of the DRI in order to appropriately encourage and facilitate the development of housing and employment opportunities within the DRI. Kimley-Horn and Associates has prepared an analysis of the DRI dated April 12, 2021, based on the development program provided by the City's Planning Department, that balances deficits of development credits using exchange rates from Increment III of the DRI, attached as Exhibit A.
