REVOCABLE LICENSE AGREEMENT
This Revocable License Agreement (the "Agreement") is made this _ day of
2002, between the City of Miami (the "City") a municipal corporation of the State of Florida and
Equity Ventures Realty, Inc., a for profit Florida corporation (the "Licensee")
WHEREAS, Publix Supermarkets, Inc. is building a new store adjacent to the property to
be leased by Licensee; and
WHEREAS, Licensee is the agent for Publix Supermarkets, Inc.; and
WHEREAS, Licensee would like to lease the property to use it as a construction staging
area for the construction of the Publix store; and
WHEREAS, this Revocable License Agreement is not assignable; and
WHEREAS, this Agreement is revocable -at -will by the City; and
WHEREAS, in order to carry out the intent as expressed herein and in consideration of
the mutual agreements subsequently contained, the City and Licensee agree as follows:
1. Purpose.
The City is the custodian of real property and improvements thereon at the parking lot
under I-95 between 6t' and 7h Streets S.W. and 3rd and 40' Avenues S.W., Miami -Dade County,
Florida (the "Property"), which is depicted in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and made a part
hereof. The City has determined that the Property (the "Area") is not needed at this time by any
of the City's offices or departments. The Licensee wishes to use the Area as a construction
staging area for the construction of a Public Supermarket (the "Permitted Use"). The City is
willing to assist the Licensee by temporarily authorizing the Licensee to occupy and use the Area
for the Permitted Use, under the conditions hereinafter set forth. Any use of the Area not
authorized under the Permitted Use must receive the prior written consent of the City Manager,
which consent may be withheld or conditioned for any or no reason, including, but not limited to
additional financial consideration.
Page 1 of 20
02--x.049
2. Occupancy And Use Period.
This Agreement shall commence as of the date in which the City Manager executes the
Agreement (the "Effective Date") and shall continue on a month-to-month basis until the first to
occur of the following:
(a) Cancellation or termination by the express written agreement of the parties hereto; or
(b) Cancellation or termination by request of either of the parties hereto, subject to the
notice provisions of Paragraph 20, "Cancellation By Request Of Either Of The Parties
Without Cause;" or
(c) Cancellation pursuant to Paragraph 21, "Termination By City Manager For Cause."
3. Continuous Duty to Operate
Except where the Area is rendered untenantable by reason of fire or other casualty,
Licensee shall at all times during this Agreement, occupy the Area upon the Effective Date and
shall thereafter continuously conduct operations in the Area in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement.
4. Interest Conferred By This Agreement.
Licensee agrees that this Agreement has been issued by the City to authorize Licensee to
occupy the Area solely for the limited purpose of the Permitted Use and no other purpose. The
parties hereby agree that the provisions of this Agreement do not constitute a lease and the rights
of Licensee hereunder are not those of a tenant but are a mere personal privilege to do certain
acts of a temporary character and to otherwise use the Area subject to the terms of this
Agreement. No leasehold interest in the Area is conferred upon Licensee under the provisions
hereof and Licensee does not and shall not claim at any time any leasehold estate or ownership
interest in the Area by virtue of this Agreement or its use of the Area hereunder. Additionally,
Licensee does not and shall not claim at any time any interest or estate of any kind or extent
whatsoever in the Area by virtue of any expenditure of funds by the Licensee for improvements,
Page 2 of 20
02-1049
construction, repairs, partitions, or alterations to the Area even if such improvements,
construction, repairs, partitions, or alterations are authorized by the City.
5. Use Fee.
In consideration of this Agreement, Licensee agrees to pay to the City a Monthly Fee (the
"Monthly Fee), commencing with the first day of the month following the Effective Date of this
Agreement, for the occupancy and use of the Area the amount of FOURTEEN HUNDRED
DOLLARS and NO CENTS ($1,400.00), plus State Use Tax, if applicable, which shall be paid
in advance and in full on the first day of each month, without notice or demand (the "Monthly
Fee"). Payments shall be made payable to the "City of Miami" and shall be mailed to the "City of
Miami, Finance Department, 444 S.W. 2nd Avenue, Oh Floor, Miami, Florida 33130", or such
other address as may be designated from time to time.
In the event the Effective Date does not fall on the first day of the month, the Monthly
Fee will be prorated on a daily basis for that month.
6. Late Fee.
In the event the City does not receive any installment of the Monthly Use Fee within five
days of the date in which it was due, Licensee shall pay to City a late charge in an amount equal
to ten percent (10%) of the Monthly Fee. Such late fee shall constitute additional fees due and
payable to the City by Licensee upon the date of payment of the delinquent payment referenced
above. Acceptance of such late charge by the City shall, in no event, constitute a waiver of
Licensee's violations with respect to such overdue amount nor prevent the City from the pursuit
of any remedy to which the City may otherwise be entitled.
7. Returned Check Fee.
In the event any check is returned to the City as uncollectible, the Licensee shall pay to
City a returned check fee (the "Returned Check Fee") based on the following schedule:
Page 3 of 20

$30.00
$300.01 - 800.00

5% of the returned amount.
The Returned Check Fee shall constitute additional fees due and payable to the City by
Licensee, upon the date of payment of the delinquent payment referenced above. Acceptance of
Returned Check Fee by the City shall, in no event, constitute a waiver of Licensee's violations
with respect to such overdue amount nor prevent the City from the pursuit of any remedy to
which the City may otherwise be entitled.
8. Security Deposit
Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, the Licensee shall deposit with the
City the sum of FOUR THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS AND NO CENTS
($4,200.00) (the "Security") as guarantee for the full and faithful performance by Licensee of all
obligations of Licensee under this Agreement or in connection with this Agreement. If Licensee
is in violation (as provided in "Termination By City Manager For Cause") beyond any applicable
notice or cure period, the City may use, apply or retain all or any part of the Security for the
payment of (i) any fee or other sum of money which Licensee was obligated to pay but did not
pay, (ii) any sum expended by the City on Licensee's behalf in accordance with the provisions of
this Agreement, or (iii) any sum which the City may expend or be required to expend as a result
of Licensee's violation. The use, application or retention of the Security or any portion thereof by
the City shall not prevent the City from exercising any other right or remedy provided for under
this Agreement or at law and shall not limit any recovery to which the City may be entitled
otherwise. At any time or times when the City has made any such application of all or any part
of the Security Deposit, the Licensee shall deposit the sum or sums equal to the amounts so
applied by City within ten (10) days of written notice by the City.

as the case may be, shall be returned to Licensee upon the termination of this Agreement or upon

the Security. Licensee shall not be entitled to receive any interest on the Security Deposit.

of the City's receipt of said bill.

SUBJECT: Resolution authorizing the City
Manager to execute a Revocable
License Agreement with Equity
REFERENCES: Ventures Realty, Inc.
ENCLOSURES: City Commission Agenda
September 26, 2002
The administration recommends that the City Commission adopt the attached Resolution
authorizing the City Manager to execute a Revocable License Agreement, in substantially the
attached form, between the City of Miami and Equity Ventures Realty, Inc., revocable -at -will, for
the temporary use of that certain area under I-95 between S.W. 6u' and 7t' Streets and S.W. 3rd

period not to exceed six (6) months, with a monthly fee of $1,400.00. This Resolution is subject
to the required approvals from the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) and the Federal
Highway Administration (FHWA).
BACKGROUND:
On November 6, 1980, the City and FDOT entered into a Memorandum of Agreement
("Memorandum") for a term of ninety-nine (99) years for the leasing of certain FDOT right-of-
way. The City caused a parking lot to be constructed on a portion of the leased property which
lot is not currently in use.
Equity Ventures Realty, Inc. has approached the City to request temporary use of said parking lot
as a construction staging area for the new Publix Supermarket located at approximately SW 3rd
Avenue and SW 7t' Street.
The Memorandum requires the City to obtain prior written approval by both FDOT and FHWA,
prior to entering into a sublease of the space and when making any change in the authorized use
as provided in the agreement. A written request to FDOT has been submitted in order to obtain
the necessary approvals related to the proposed use of the area by Equity Ventures Realty, Inc.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fmancial impact to the City.
