BACKGROUND: _ On July 27, 1999 the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 99-564 which ratified and approved the City Manager's finding of an emergency and thus waived the requirements for competitive sealed bids for three (3) SNPB projects including the Virrick Park Youth Center Project. The Virrick Park Project was approved with a total funding amount of $1,500,000. Since proposed State funding did not materialize, additional funding in the amount of $663,434 ($560,351 from Community Development and $103,083 which is already appropriated in this capital project) is needed to construct Phase I of this project. The $560,351 from Community Development is composed of reprogrammed funds in the amount of $525,279 from Jose Marti Park and $35,072 from Armbrister Park. Therefore, it is recommended that the attached Resolution be adopted to approve the appropriation of this additional $663,434 towards the Virrick Park Youth Center project. i &W" N95 DHW/RM/AR/dg c: Raul Martinez, Assistant City Manager .Albert Ruder, Parks and Recreation Department Director 09- 9098 CITY OF MIAMI, FLORIDA INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM TO: Donald I -I.
