City Manager ENCLOSURES: City Commission Agenda
Item --June 26, 1997
RECOMMENDATION:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution,
amending Section 2 of Resolution No. 97-407, adopted June 9, 1997, restoring the 10% funding
to seven economic development community based organizations (CBOs), further identifying
$100,000.00 from 22" Year Community Development Block Grant Contingency funds for
economic development services in the Model City and Wynwood areas by CBOs to be
determined.
BACKGROUND:
On June 9, 1997, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 97-407 approving the funding of
seven (7) economic development community based organizations (CBOs) from the Twenty-third
(23`d) Year Community Development Block Grant fund and program income.
In addition, the City Commission further recommended the reduction of the allocation to the
CBOs by ten percent (10%) to be used to address economic development services in the Model
City and Wynwood areas, until such time as funds are identified and are available to fund said
programs at the level of $50,000.00 each for both Model City and Wynwood.
Funds in the amount of $100,000.00 have been identified from Twenty-second (22nd) Year
Community Development Block Grant funds contingency account. Therefore, by approving the
attached resolution, funding for economic development services in Model City and Wynwood
would be provided through CBOs to be determined through a request for proposal process and
the City would in effect restore the ten percent (10%) reallocation to the seven (7) CBOs as
originally intended by Resolution No. 97-407.
A new organization entitled, Metro -Miami Community Development Corporation, Inc.
(MMCDC), has expressed an interest in seeking funds to provide services in both Model City
and Wynwood. However, after reviewing the application of Metro -Miami Community
Development Corporation, Inc., it has come to our attention that the Executive Director is a
principal in another corporation (2368, Inc.) which received a $292,878.00 City loan for a multi-
family housing project, in which the corporation is $29,549.00 in arrears to the City.

Moreover, the Deputy Director of Metro -Miami Community Development Corporation, Inc. has
previously defaulted on one City loan in 1994 (approximately $8,000.00 unpaid) and also
defaulted on one loan from Miami Capital Development, Inc., in the amount of $7,632.00. (See
attachment).
Accordingly, considering the above facts, the Administration does not recommend funding of
Metro -Miami Community Development Corporation at this time.
