The lease shall have a maximum term of forty five (45) years and is to be contingent upon said firm making a capital investment of no less than $2,000,000 and paying to the City a minimum annual rent of $300,000 as well as any additional requirements as may be determined by the City. The Resolution additionally provides the necessary designations and directions to Dade County's Supervisor of Election for this referendum item. BACKGROUND: The Department of Community Planning and Revitalization (CPR) has administered the Unified Development Project (UDP) process for the development of a Campground and related recreational facilities on Virginia Key. A companion item to this Resolution on today's Commission Meeting agenda would, if adopted, accept the proposal of Virginia Key Campground Ltd. and authorized the City Manager to negotiate a lease agreement for the project. City Charter Section 29-B, provides that when less than three written proposals have been received from prospective parties for the leasing of City property, the lease must be approved by a majority of the votes cast by the electorate at a referendum. The attached legislation contains the required language and directives to place this lease for a campground on the November 7, 1995 election. ,gyp, It is therefore, recommended that the City Commission adopt the (l' proposed Resolution in its entirety.
