fee in the amount of Five Thousand Three Hundred Seventy -Four Dollars ($5,374) (the
"Monthly Fee") which amount is hereby accepted and acknowledged by the City as
being paid in advance and in full on the Effective Date and the first day of each month
thereafter. Such Monthly Fee payment, during the Use Period commencing on the
Effective Date, shall be retained by Licensee as the amount of the City's contribution to
the programs provided by Licensee to the community. If the Effective Date is not the
first day of any month, the Monthly Fee for the first month of the Use Period shall be
one -thirtieth of the Monthly Fee installment for each day of the period from the Effective
Date to the last day of the month in which the Effective Date occurs. Licensee shall
pay, when due, any and all State Use Tax assessed against the Monthly Fee, if
applicable.
5. ADJUSTMENT TO MONTHLY FEE.
Licensee agrees that, as provided for below, the Monthly Fee shall be increased
on the first day of each Agreement Year (hereinafter the "Anniversary Date"), by any
increase during the prior year in the index known as "United States Bureau of Labor
Statistics, Consumer Price Index. An Agreement Year shall mean any period of time
consisting of twelve (12) consecutive calendar months commencing on the Effective

3
97- 179
L
Miami - Ft. Lauderdale, Florida", Base Year 1982-84=100 (hereinafter the "CPI"). Said
adjustment shall be hereinafter referred to as the "CPI Escalation".
The CPI Escalation of the Monthly Fee shall be equal to Monthly Fee in effect for
the immediately preceding Agreement Year plus the product of that Monthly Fee
multiplied by the "CPI Percentage" (as defined below).
The CPI Percentage shall equal the fraction (i) whose numerator equals the
total of (a) the monthly Index published immediately prior to the Anniversary Date (or
the nearest reported previous month), minus (b) the monthly Index published
immediately prior to the Effective Date (or the nearest reported previous month) and (ii)
whose denominator is the same monthly Index as (b) above.
If the Index is discontinued with no successor Index, City shall select a
comparable index.
City shall compute the CPI Escalations and send a notice, with calculations, to
Licensee setting forth the adjusted Monthly Fee within sixty (60) days of the
commencement of each Agreement Year or as soon as such Index is available. In the
event the Monthly Fee increases, Licensee shall pay to City such additional amount
due which amount is hereby accepted and acknowledged by the City as being paid.
Such Monthly Fee, as may be increased in accordance with this paragraph, shall
continue to be retained by Licensee as the amount of the City's contribution to the
programs provided by Licensee to the community.
6. SECURITY DEPOSIT.
Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, the Licensee shall deposit with
City the sum of Sixteen Thousand One Hundred and Twenty -Two Dollars ($16,122) (the

Licensee under this Agreement or in connection with this Agreement. If Licensee is in
violation (as provided in Paragraph 19), 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 City on Licensee's behalf in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, or (iii) any sum which 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 City shall not prevent City from exercising any other
right or remedy provided for under this Agreement or at law and shall not limit any recovery
to which City may be entitled otherwise.
Provided Licensee is not in violation of this Agreement, the Security or balance
thereof, as the case may be, shall be returned to Licensee after the expiration date or upon
any later date after which Licensee has vacated the Property in the same condition or better
as existed on the Effective Date, ordinary wear and tear excepted. Upon the return of the
Security (or balance thereof) to the Licensee, City shall be completely relieved of liability

City Manager .p
RECOMMENDATION:
DATE : MAR 1 1 1997
FILE :
SUBJECT: Revocable License with Belafonte
Tacolcy Center
REFERENCES:
ENCLOSURES:
It is respectfully requested that the City Commission adopt the attached Resolution authorizing
the City Manager to issue a Revocable License, in substantially the attached form, to Belafonte
Tacolcy Center, Inc., a non-profit corporation ("Licensee"), for use of the real property and
improvements thereon located at 6161 Northwest 9 Avenue, Miami, Florida (the"Property"), for
the purpose of undertaking its operation of youth development programs; said Revocable
License to be at an initial monthly fee of $5,374 which fee shall be retained by Licensee as the
amount of the City's contribution to the programs provided by Licensee to the community, and
with all terms and conditions as set forth in said Revocable License.
BACKGROUND:
The Office of Asset Management has prepared the attached Resolution for consideration by the
Commission. Belafonte Tacolcy Center ("BTC") has been providing youth development
programs at the site since 1971. The most recent lease agreement between the City of Miami
and BTC has expired. It is in the best interest of the City to provide a new agreement between
the parties.
Of primary difference between the previous lease agreement and the proposed Revocable
License, BTC shall be responsible for all repairs and maintenance to the facility and shall be
responsible for maintaining property insurance on the property. This will result in a cost savings
to the City while permitting the continued provision of public services to the community.
It should be noted that the City of Miami will not be receiving any actual cash payments from
BTC under the proposed agreement. Instead, the City has established a monthly value of
$5,374 representing the City's contribution to the he
development programs offered by BTC.
This value is based upon a charge of $5.15 s.f. ($5.15 s.f. x 12,521 s.f. (adjusted s.f. per tax
roll) = $64,483.15 = 12 mos. = $5,374/mo (rounded)). This is approximately the same amount
that the previous lease agreement provided for. The purpose of establishing a value is to permit
BTC to utilize said figure as a match for grant funds. Elimination of this contribution could affect
BTC's ability to obtain federal and state grant funds in the future which it relies upon for its
operations.

Additionally, in accordance with the City Commission's directive, the Revocable License
contains a provision whereby BTC shall be required to deposit with the City three months use
fee ($16,122) as a guarantee of its faithful performance under the agreement. BTC has
indicated they can not fulfill this requirement. Funding for their agency is based upon programs
and does not provide them with unrestricted dollars. After considering same and the fact that no
cash payments are made to the City, the Offrce of Asset Management hereby recommends that
this provision be waived.
Highlights of the Revocable License are as follows:
Use Period: To commence upon execution of the agreement and continue until a)
cancellation or termination by the express written agreement of the
parties, or b) cancellation or termination by request of any of the parties
subject to the notice provisions provided in the agreement.
Use Fee: Initially $5,374 per month. Said fee shall be retained by Licensee as
City's contribution to the programs provided by Licensee to the
community.
Fee Increases: On the first day of each agreement year, the Monthly Fee shall be
increased by any increase during the prior year in the index known as
"United States Bureau of Labor Statistics, Consumer Price Index".. Such
Monthly Fee, as may be increased, shall continue to be retained . by
Licensee as the amount of the City's contribution to the programs by
Licensee to the community.
Charges by
Licensee: Acknowledging the benefits afforded to City residents by Licensee's
programs, and to ensure the continued operation of Licensee's youth
development programs, City shall allow Licensee to assess reasonable
charges to the public for its services. On or before the Effective Date, the
charges shall be submitted to the City Manager for approval. The
established charges shall not be changed without the written consent of
the City Manager which request shall be submitted at least thirty (30) days
prior to the effective date of said increase. Barring any extenuating
circumstances as may be determined in the sole discretion of the City
Manager, Licensee shall not submit a request for changes more
frequently than once in any Agreement Year. The City Manager shall not
unreasonably withhold approval of said request, however, Licensee shall
be required to submit any and all supporting documentation requested by
City Manager to verify the reasonability of the proposed fees.

In an effort to continue providing youth development programs to the community, it is
recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached Resolution authorizing the issuance
of the Revocable License.

Dear Mr. Rodriguez:
We are in receipt of the proposed Revocable License for Belafonte Tacolcy
Center. We agree with all terms of the agreement with "the exception of
Section 6 (Security Deposit). As you are well aware, BTC is a non-profit
Agency. Funding for our Agency is based on programs and does not provide
us the luxury of unrestricted dollars to pay such a deposit. We, therefore,
request that the City of Miami reconsider the section as a component for this
Revocable License, and delete it from our Agreement unless the City can
identify a funding source to cover the cost of the proposed deposit.
I would hope that after thirty (30) years of providing service to Liberty City
youth, we have demonstrated that we are responsible stewards of the property
at 6161 N.W. 9th Avenue.
Sincerely,
Sabrina Baker-Bouie
Executive Director
