Gimenez REFERENCES City Manager ENCLOSURES: RECOMMENDATION: Resolution Ratifying City Manager's Action for Spring Garden Civic Assoc. to Purchase Seybold Property City Commission Meeting of January 10, 2002 It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution, by a 4150' affirmative vote, ratifying, approving and confirming the City Manager's action to authorize the use of $151,186.01 from the General Fund to enable the Spring Garden Civic Association, Inc. to execute the timely closing for the purchase of the Seybold Canal property located at 613 NW 7 Street Road with repayment to be 'made to the General Fund upon payment to the City of Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for this purpose. BACKGROUND: At the Public Hearing for the allocation of 26"' Year Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds July 11, 2000, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 00-586.1 allocating $271,133 of CDBG funds from the Historic Preservation category to the Spring Garden Civic Association, Inc. This allocation provided funding for this Agency to purchase and rehabilitate the historic Seybold Canal property located at 613 NW 7 Street Road. Under standard operating procedures, the City of Miami receives payment for eligible CDBG expenditures from the federal government through wire transfers three (3) days after receiving the City's requests for payment. Typically, the City submits its request to the federal government for payment of eligible activities on Wednesday and funds are available in the City's account by the time checks are processed for payments to City vendors on the regular Friday check run. When the closing for the Spring Garden Civic Association, Inc. was scheduled to purchase the subject property, it was impossible for the City to request funds from the federal government and have those funds wire transferred to the its account in time for the closing. To ensure that the Agency could move forward with the closing, the City Manager authorized the expenditure of $151,186.07 from the General Fund for this purpose with the understanding that the federal funds would be repaid to the General Fund at the next scheduled drawdown request. It is recommended that the City Commission adopt the proposed resolution, by a 4/5's affirmative vote that ratifies, approves and confirms the City Manager's action, as specified 0 0 above, to enable the Spring Garden Civic Association, Inc. to move forward with the purchase of the Seybold Canal property.
