INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO: The Honorable Mayor and DATE :��L 1 6 ` 1�,` FILE :
Members of the City Commission
SUBJECT: Repairs at Belafonte Tacolcy
FROM: CaY, 0 1 REFERENCES: City Commission Meeting
City Manager ENCLOSURES: July 26, 2001
RECOMMENDATION
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached emergency
ordinance reprogramming $185,000 of previously approved Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) funds for Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) and allocating said amount to
Belafonte Tacolcy Center, Inc. to complete renovations on the City owned facility occupied by
the Agency, which is located at 6161 N.W. 9 Avenue; further authorizing the City Manager to
enter into contract with the aforesaid Agency, in a form acceptable to the City Attorney.
BACKGROUND:
Belafonte Tacolcy Center, Inc. is a non-profit organization providing diversified services to youth
in the. Model City Revitalization District. This organization operates out of a City owned park
located at 6161 N.W. 9 Avenue which is need of extensive renovations. To meet this need,
$185,000 of Community Development Block Grant funds were identified in the available pool to
fund Capital Improvement (CIP) projects.
However, due to a technicality, Belafonte Tacolcy is unable to access these funds to proceed with
these much-needed renovations. It has been determined that the City is unable to pay the
contractor selected to complete the renovations because, although this is a City owned facility,
the contract is directly between the Belafonte Tacolcy Center and the contractor. As a result, the
Administration does not have authorization to reimburse the contractor directly or disburse funds
to Belafonte Tacolcy for that purpose.
To mitigate this situation, it is recommended that the City Commission adopt the proposed
emergency ordinance that reprograms the CDBG funds set aside in the CIP pool for this purpose
and reallocates $185,000 directly .to Belafonte Tacolcy. The proposed resolution further
authorizes the City Manager to enter into contract with the aforesaid Agency, in a form
acceptable to the City Attorney for this purpose.
