BACKGROUND At its meeting of June 13, 2002, the City Commission adopted a series of legislative items relating to the FEC Corridor Plan. In adopting these legislative items, the City Commission further instructed the Administration to identify matching funds to complement the initial commitment from the Homeland Defense Neighborhood Improvement Bond Program. The Administration has identified $375,000 of CDBG Program Income to implement three (3) of the identified study initiatives and to support capital costs of the plan as follows: Re-establish the Commercial Revitalization Program specifically targeted toward the N.E. 79th Street and N.E. 2°a Avenue corridors ($100,000) • Preparation of a Target Industry Analysis of the furniture, media, plastics, and fabricated metals sectors ($100,000) Prepare a regulating plan to serve as the foundation for the future development of the FEC Corridor, incorporating proposed special district and neighborhood conservation district regulations, as well as design guidelines and housing prototypes, to the extent determined appropriate through further analysis; giving primary priority to the Buena Vista Rail Yard; secondary priority . to the remaining proposed special districts, conservation districts, and 02-1129 Model Block area; and tertiary priority to the remainder of the FEC Corridor study area ($125,000) • Initiate a survey of historic resources within the FEC Corridor, combined with appropriate follow-up action, to identify and establish historic and/or neighborhood conservation districts; giving preliminary priority to the proposed neighborhood conservation districts ($50,000) Management has identified $275,000 of CDBG Program Income under the Administration category. Under the federal regulations, recipients may direct 20% of Program Income toward administrative expenses. In accordance with federal regulations, the planning studies identified above are considered administrative in nature and must be included in the City's 20% cap. It is important to stress that, although the proposed source of funds for the studies is included under the Administration Category, the purpose of the award is to conduct the FEC Corridor studies previously approved by the City Commission and will not be used for administrative activities of the City itself. The Administration has also identified $100,000 of program income to initiate CD eligible economic development activities through the Commercial Revitalization Program specifically targeted toward the N.E. 79b Street and N.E. 2nd Avenue corridors. Funding has not been identified for the following elements of the FEC Corridor Plan: • Transportation Initiatives: o Preparation of Comprehensive Transportation Master Plan $100,000 • Economic Development Initiatives: o Development of Financing Plan $150,000 o Creation of Marketing Plan $250,000 $500,000 Although funding has not been identified at this time for the above referenced initiatives, the Administration is researching other possible sources of funds, which will be then be presented to the City Commission for approval. The Administration recommends that the City Commission adopt the proposed Resolution allocating $375,000 of CDBG Program Income to support the implementation of the FEC Railway Corridor Strategic Redevelopment Plan and further authorizing the City Manager to enter into agreement, as may be necessary, to initiate said implementation of the FEC Corridor Plan, in a form acceptable to the City Attorney. FISCAL IMPACT Adoption of the Resolution allocates $375,000 of CDBG Program Income and will have no direct impact on the General Fund Budget.
