Re: Request for extension of time to complete projects at 1900 NW 2°a CT, 244 NW 16th j
Street, and 1611 NW 3'd Ave.
Dear Mr. Meisah,
Please accept this letter as my formal request on behalf of the Southeast Overtown/Park West
E Community Redevelopment Agency ("SEOPW CRA') for additional time to complete affordable
housing projects at 1900 NW 2"`� Court, 244 NW 161h Street, and 1611 NW 3' Avenue. As you
know, 'subsequent to Resolution R-14-0391, the City of Miami conveyed these properties to the
SEOPW CRA in January of 2015 for the purpose of developing affordable' housing units. Section
7 of the deeds respective to each of theseproperties requires that rehabilitation efforts commence
within 6 months of the conveyance and that projects be fully completed within 48 months of the
conveyance. To date, the SEOPW CRA has commenced rehabilitation efforts and expended a
considerable amount of funds for architecture and engineering on each of the projects; however,
none of the projects have been completed.
As an update on each of the projects, I offer to you the following:
1900 NW 2"a Court. - The project has been designed' as a 2-unit, two-story twin -home which is
consistent with and maximizes the density 'under Miami2l zoning. The plans have been
completed, permitting is nearly complete, and the SEOPW CRA issued Invitation to Bid No. 18-
01 on October 9, 2018. Two bid responses were received and we anticipate the project being
awarded at an upcoming SEOPW CRA Board meeting as early as February, 2019, and construction
commencing shortly' thereafter.
244 NW 16111 Street. - The project has been designed as a 4-unit, three-story building which is
consistent with Miami2l zoning. The plans have been completed,' permitting is nearly complete,
and the SEOPW CRA issued Invitation to Bid No. 18-02 on November 6, 2018. Four bid responses
were received and we anticipate the project being awarded at an upcoming SEOPW CRA Board
meeting as early as February, 2019, and construction commencing 'shortly ,thereafter.
1611 NW 31 Avenue. - The'project has been designed as 24-unit, five -story building with ground
floor retail space which is consistent with and maximizes the density allowed under` Miami2l
zoning. The SEOPW CRA has expended approximately $292,500 in architecture and engineering
fees and the plans have been completed. Permitting has not begun as the project has been on -hold

as we secure funding for the construction. It is anticipated that the SEOPW CRA will begin:. the
permitting process in. the Spring of 2019 and have funding in place later in 201.9.
As each of the projects are of different scale, complexity, construction commencement dates and
durations, each may require a different extension of time. I am requesting extensions of time as
follows:
1900 NW 2"a Court. - Minimum of 24 months extension.
44 NW 16Ih Street. - Minimum of 30 months extension.
1611 NW 311 Avenue. - Minimum of 36 months extension.
Should you wish to consider one extension term that applies to all three properties,then 36 months
would allow us to begin and complete the project at 1611 NW Yd Avenue which is the largest,
most complex, and requires a significant construction duration..
T appreciate your consideration in this matter. Should you have any questions on any of the
projects, please don't hesitate to let me know.
