as constituting the consent or request of the City, expressed or implied, by
inference or otherwise, to any contractor, subcontractor, laborer or materialman
for the performance of any labor or the furnishing of any materials for any
specific Alteration, or repair of or to the Property nor as giving the Provider the

ENCLOSURES: May 8, 2003
RECOMMENDATION
The administration recommends that the Miami City Commission approve the attached
Resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an Amendment to the Management
Agreement (the "Amendment"), in substantially the attached form, with Miami Dade
Community College (the "Provider") dated May 13, 2002 (the "Agreement"). This
Amendment is for the purpose of modifying sections 9.1 and 9.2 of the Agreement to
include a provision for the Provider's performance of alterations and improvements to the
City owned property located at 1508 S.W. 8th Street, Miami, Florida, a/k/a Tower
Theater (the "Property").
BACKGROUND
On May 13, 2002 the City entered into a management agreement with Miami Dade
Community College to use the City owned property commonly known as the Tower
Theater located at 1508 SW 8th Street, Miami, Florida. At the time of negotiations of the
management agreement, Miami Dade Community College did not contemplate
performing any improvements to the property. Therefore, there is no provision in the
agreement to allow Miami Dade perform any alterations to the property. During the past
ten (10) months of their operation at the Property, Miami Dade Community College has
received numerous requests to perform musicals and cultural activities but has not been
able to accommodate them due to the limitations of the stage of cinema 1 of the Property.
Miami Dade Community College has approached the City to request authorization to
perform certain alterations related to the expansion of the stage of cinema 1. In order to
perform said alterations the seating capacity of the aforesaid cinema must be reduced
from 239 to 207 seats. The expansion of the stage will provide Miami Dade Community
College the ability to expand their programs and activities. By being able to diversify the
events presented at the theater, it will help to promote and increase the uses of the theater.
