however, that no further transfers from the Redevelopment Trust
Fund to the Revenue Fund shall be required in any Bond Year if
the aggregate amounts on deposit in the Sinking Fund are equal to
the Bond Service Requirement for such Bond Year on all
Outstanding Bonds, and all prior deficiencies in the Sinking Fund
and accounts therein and in the Reserve Fund have been fully
restored (or to the extent that a Reserve Product is in place,
all amounts owing by the Issuer to the Reserve Product Provider
as repayment for draws or payments made under the: Reserve Product.
have been made), and there is on deposit in the Reserve Fund an
amount equal to the Reserve Requirement (or, if applicable, the
amount of the Reserve Product has been fully reinstated)..
F. DISPOSITION OF MONEYS IN THE REVENUE FUND. Funds oin

soon as they are received in the following order and priority:
(1) First, by deposit to the credit of the
Interest Account in the Sinking Fund, and then„ pro
rata, into the Principal Account and the Redemption
Account in the Sinking Fund, until the amounts on
deposit therein are equal to the Bond Service
Requirement in such Bond Year for all Outstanding Bonds.
(2) Second, by deposit into the Reserve Find, the

25
deposit therein, will be sufficient to make the funds on
deposit therein, except as otherwise hereinafter

the Reserve Product).

there are any amounts in the Revenue Fund inexcess of
the Bond Service Requirement for such Bond Year on all
Outstanding Bonds, and all prior deficiencies in the

taking into account deficiencies in prior deposits.
Funds in the Sinking Fund shall be used only to
pay interest on the Bonds, when due, to pay the principal of
maturing Bonds (including amortization installments in connection

received from a Reserve Product Provider shall be applied
immediately to cure deficiencies in the Sinking Fund.
The Issuer shall not be required to deposit to the
Reserve Fund proceeds of any series of Bonds issued hereunder in
an amount equal to the Reserve Requirement if it provides on the
date of issuance of such series of Bonds in lieu of such funds a
Reserve Product issued by a Reserve Product Provider in an amount
equal to the difference between the Reserve Requirement and the
sums then on deposit in the Reserve Fund. Such Reserve Product
as provided above must provide for payment on any Interest
Payment Date or Principal Payment Date (provided adequate notice
is given) on which a deficiency exists (or is expected to exist)

to this resolution and available for such purpose, and shall name
the Trustee as the beneficiary thereof. Notwithstanding the

Product be permitted if it would cause an impairment in any
existing rating on the Bonds or any series thereof. If a
disbursement is made from a Reserve Product, the Issuer shall be
obligated to reinstate the maximum limits of such Reserve Product
immediately following such disbursement or to replace such
Reserve Product by depositing into the Reserve Fund from the

less than cost and not later than the respective dates, as
estimated by the Issuer, that the moneys held for the credit of
said Funds will be needed for the purpose of such Funds. If the
Issuer fails to direct the investment of any moneys held by the

of the Rebate Amount or as otherwise provided herein.

Trustee by this Resolution and use the same degree or skill and

to the sufficiency or validity of any instrument,, paper or
proceeding, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon e
certificate signed by the Issuer as sufficient evidence of the
facts therein contained and shall also be at liberty to accept a
similar certificate to the effect that any particular dealing,
transaction or action is necessary or expedient, but may at its
discretion secure such further evidence deemed by it to be
necessary or advisable, but shall in no case be bound to secure
the same. The Trustee may accept a certificate of the officials
of the Issuer who executed the Bonds (or their successors in

fees from legally available moneys of the Issuer.
SECTION 19. MODIFICATION OR AMENDMENT. This Resolution
may be amended by the Issuer at any time and from time to time.
prior to the issuance of the 1990 Bonds. Thereafter, no
modification or amendment of this Resolution or of any ordinance
or resolution amendatory hereof or supplemental hereto,
materially adverse to the Bondholders may be made without the
consent in writing of Bondholders of two-thirds (2/3rds) or more
in principal amount of the Bonds then Outstanding but no
modification or amendment shall permit a change (a) in the
maturity of the Bonds or a reduction in the rate of interest
thereon or in the amount of the principal obligation, (b) that
would affect the unconditional promise of the Issuer to collect
and hold the Pledged Revenues, as herein provided, or provide for
the payment of such Pledged Revenues as herein provided, or (c)
that would reduce such percentage of Bondholders required above
for such modifications or amendments, without the consent of all
of the Bondholders of Bonds then Outstanding. For the purpose of
Bondholders' voting rights or consents, the Bonds owned by or
held for the account of the Issuer, directly or indirectly, shall
not be counted.
SECTION 20. DEFEASANCE. If, at any time, the Issuer
shall have paid, or shall have made provision for the payment of,
the principal, interest and redemption premiums, if any, with
respect to the Bonds of any series or any maturity thereof, and
the fees and charges with respect thereto, then, in that event,
the pledge of and lien on the Pledged Revenues in favor of the
Bondholders of such Bonds, and all other liens created hereby in
favor of such Bondholders, shall no longer be in effect with
respect to such Bonds. For purposes of the preceding sentence,
the deposit of cash, Governmental Obligations or bank
certificates of deposit fully secured as to principal and
interest by Governmental Obligations in irrevocable trust with a
trustee or a banking institution or trust company, for the sole
benefit of such Bondholders (including moneys in the Funds
created hereunder and available to be applied for such purposes),
in an aggregate principal amount which, together with interest to
accrue thereon, will be sufficient to make timely payment of the
principal, interest, and redemption premiums, if any, on such
Bonds, shall be considered "provision for payment" if the same
shall have been verified as sufficient for such purposes in a
written report by a nationally recognized independent certified
public accounting firm and if provision, satisfactory to the
Paying Agent, shall have been made with respect to all Paying
Agent fees and expenses related to such Bonds. Nothing herein
shall be deemed to require the Issuer to call any of the
outstanding Bonds for redemption prior to maturity pursuant to
any applicable optional redemption provisions, or to impair the
discretion of the Issuer in determining whether to exercise any
such option for early redemption. If such conditions have been
satisfied with respect to all Bonds issued hereunder and then
outstanding, all ruoneys held in any Fund or Account created
hereby that are in excess of the amounts required to pay or make
provision for payment of the principal and interest on such Bonds
may be withdrawn and the same shall be applied by the Issuer for
any lawful purpose.
SECTION 21. EVENTS OF DEFAULT. Each of the following
events is hereby declared an "event of default," that is to say
if:
(a) payment of principal of any Bond shall not be!
made when the same shall become due and payable,
either at maturity (whether by acceleration or
otherwise) or on required payment dates by
proceedings for redemption or otherwise; or
(b) payment of any installment of interest shall
not be made when the same shall become due and
payable; or
(c) the Issuer shall for any reason be rendered
incapable of fulfilling its obligations hereunder
to the extent that the payment of or security for

a period of thirty (30) days after the Issuer
becomes aware or receives notice of such
conditions; or
(d) an order or decree shall be entered, with the
consent or acquiescence of the Issuer, appointing

assets, the Pledged Revenues, or any part thereof

similar law or statute of the United States of
America or the State of Florida, which shall not
be dismissed, vacated or discharged within thirty
(30) days after the filing thereof; or
(e) any proceedings shall be instituted, with the
consent or acquiescence of the Issuer, for the
purpose of affecting a composition between the
Issuer and its creditors or for the purpose of
adjusting the claims of such creditors, pursuant
to any federal or state statutes now or hereafter
enacted, if the claims of such creditors are under
any circumstances payable from the Pledged
Revenues; or
_ (f) the entry of a final judgment or judgments for
the payment of money against the Issuer which
subjects any of the funds pledged hereunder to a
lien for the payment thereof in contravention of
the provisions of this resolution for which there
does not exist adequate insurance, reserves or
appropriate bonds for the timely payment thereof,
and any such judgment shall not be discharged
within ninety (90) days from the entry thereof or
an appeal shall not be taken therefrom or from the
order, decree or process upon which or pursuant to
which such judgment shall have been granted or
entered, in such manner as to stay the execution
of or levy under such judgment, order, decree or
process or the enforcement thereof; or
(g) the Issuer shall default in the due and
punctual performance of any of the. covenants,
conditions, agreements and provisions contained in
the Bonds or in this resolution on the part of the

shall continue for thirty (30) consecutive days
after written notice specifying such default and
requiring the same to be remedied: shall have been
given to the Issuer by the registered owners of
not less than ten percent (10%) in aggregate
principal amount of the Bonds Outstanding.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to
the events described in clause (g), the Issuer shall not be
deemed in default hereunder if such default can be cured within a
reasonable period of time and if the Issuer in good faith
institutes appropriate curative action and diligently pursues
such action until the default has been corre- ted.
Prior to exercising any remedies under this
Section 21 Bondholders shall cooperate with holders of Series
1989 Bonds and other Outstanding Bonds, if any, or
35

purpose, whether through the exercise of the remedies provided
for in this resolution or otherwise, shall, after payment of all
reasonable fees of Trustee, Paying Agent, Bond Registrar and
Authenticating Agent, be applied as follows:
(a) Unless the principal of all the Bonds
shall have become due and payable, all such funds shall
be applied (1) first, to the payment of all installments
of interest then due, in the order of the maturity of
the installments of such interest, to the persons
entitled thereto, ratably, without any discrimination or
preference, and (2) then, to the payment of all
installments into the Interest Account and then into the
Principal Account or Redemption Account in the Sinking
Fund, in the order of the requirement for the deposit of
such installments, or ratably if in the same order of
payment, without discrimination or preference.
(b) If the principal of all the Bonds shall have
become due and payable, all such funds shall be applied
to the payment of the principal and interest then due
and unpaid upon the Bonds, without preference or

respect thereto, under the sections captioned "Introduction",
"Purpose of the Series 1990 Bonds", "Description of the Series

such sections of the Bond Resolution and such provisions of
present laws purported to be summarized. We have also reviewed
the statements under the section captioned "Income Tax Effects"
and believe that, to the extent they purport to describe federal
income tax and Florida intangible property tax consequences of
ownership of the Series 1990 Bonds, they are accurate.

sufficiency of the Official Statement referred to above and the

March 8, 1990, and a Resolution adopted on November 8, 1990 (collectively, the

City Commission acting in such capacity with such powers delegated to it by
the County pursuant to the Interlocal Cooperation Agreement. In accordance
with the Act, a certain portion of the City known as the "Southeast
Overtown/Park West Redevelopment Area (the Redevelopment Area") has been
designated as a redevelopment area under a redevelopment plan (the
'Redevelopment Plan"), and a redevelopment trust fund (the "Redevelopment
Trust Fund") has been established for financing or refinancing community
redevelopment projects in the Redevelopment Area, including financing the
costs of the Project (as defined herein) through the issuance of the Series

City, the County or the State of Florida (the 'State'), or any political
subdivision of any of the foregoing, or a pledge of the full faith and credit
of the City, the County, or the State, or any political subdivision of any of
the foregoing, or the CRA, but shall be payable solely from the Pledged

any political subdivision of any of the foregoing, is pledged to the payment
of principal on, redemption premium, if any, and interest on the Series 1990

of the Series 1990 Bonds will be dependent upon a variety of factors and
circumstances which the City cannot predict with certainty. See 'RISK

THE SERIES 1990 BONDS
Description of the Series 1990 Bonds
The Series 1990 Bonds will be issued in the aggregate principal amount,
will bear interest at the rates, and will mature in the amounts and on the
date, all as set forth on the cover page of this Official Statement. The
Series 1990 Bonds will be dated November 1, 1990, and will bear interest

-2-
9p... S"iI
issuable only as fully registered bonds in the denomination of $5,000 or any
integral multiple thereof in book -entry only form as described below under
"Book -Entry Only System". Principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the
Series 1990 Bonds will be payable in the manner described below under
"Book -Entry Only System". The Series 1990 Bonds will be subject to redemption
as set forth in the section entitled "REDEMPTION PROVISIONS", below.
Book -Entry Only System
The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York, ("DTC") will act as
securities depository for the Series 1990 Bonds. Upon the issuance of the
Series 1990 Bonds, one registered Bond without coupons for each maturity will
be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC. So long as Cede
& Co. is the registered owner of the Series 1990 Bonds, as nominee of DTC,
references herein to the owners of the Series 1990 Bonds mean DTC or its
nominee, Cede & Co., and do not mean the Beneficial Owners of the Series 1990
Bonds as described below.
DTC is a limited -purpose trust company organized under the laws of the
State of New York, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing
corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a
"clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. DTC was created to hold
securities of its participants (the "DTC Participants") and to facilitate the
clearance and settlement of securities transactions among DTC Participants
through electronic book -entry changes in accounts of the DTC Participants,
thereby eliminating the need for physical movement of certificates. DTC
Participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies,
clearing corporations and certain other organizations, some of which (and/or
their representatives) own DTC. Access to the DTC system is also available to
others such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through
or maintain a custodial relationship with a DTC Participant, either directly
or indirectly.
For the purposes of this Official Statement, the term "Beneficial Owner"
shall mean the person for whom the DTC Participant acquires an interest in the
Series 1990 Bonds. Ownership interests in the Series 1990 Bonds may be
purchased by or through DTC Participants. Neither the DTC Participants nor
the Beneficial Owners will receive Series 1990 Bonds, but each DTC Participant
will instead receive a credit balance in the records of DTC in the amount of
such DTC Participant's interest in the Series 1990 Bonds, which will be
confirmed in accordance with DTC's standard procedures. Each Beneficial Owner
may desire to make arrangements with the DTC Participant from whom it has
purchased an ownership interest in the Series 1990 Bonds, to receive a credit
balance in the records of such DTC Participant, and to have all notices of
redemption or other communications of the City to DTC, which may affect such
Beneficial Owner, forwarded in writing by such DTC Participant and to receive
notification of all payments.
As long as Cede & Co. or its registered assignee is the registered owner
of the Series 1990 Bonds, the City shall be entitled to treat the person in
whose name any Series 1990 Bond is registered as the absolute owner thereof
for all purposes of the Bond Resolution and any applicable laws,
-3-
:30_ 871
notwithstanding an notice to the contrary received by the City, and the City
shall have no responsibility for transmitting payments to, communicating with,
notifying, or otherwise dealing with any Beneficial Owners of the Series 1990
Bonds.
DTC will receive payments on the Series 1990 Bonds from Barnett Banks
Trust Company, Jacksonville, Florida (the "Trustee", "Bond Registrar" and
"Paying Agent"), as paying agent to be remitted to the DTC Participants for
the subsequent disbursement to the Beneficial Owners. The ownership interest
of each Beneficial Owner in the Series 1990 Bonds will be recorded on the
records of the DTC Participants, whose ownership interest will be recorded on
a computerized book -entry system operated by DTC. For as long as any
purchaser is the Beneficial Owner of a Series 1990 Bond, he must maintain an
account with a broker or dealer who is, or acts through, a DTC Participant, in
order to receive payments on such Series 1990 Bond. The City cannot and does
not give any assurances that DTC, DTC Participants, or others will distribute
payments on the Series 1990 Bonds paid to DTC or its nominee, as the
registered owner, or any notices to the Beneficial Owners or that they will do
so on a timely basis or will serve and act in a manner described in this
Official Statement. The City is not responsible or liable for the failure of
DTC, DTC Participants or others to make any payment or give any notice to a
Beneficial Owner in respect of the Series 1990 Bonds or any error or delay
relating thereto.
When reference is made to any action which is required or permitted to
be taken by the Beneficial Owners, such reference shall only relate to those
permitted to act (by statute, regulation or otherwise) on behalf of such
Beneficial Owners for such purposes. When notices are given, they shall be
sent by the City to DTC. DTC shall forward (or cause to be forwarded) the
notice of the DTC Participants so that such Participants may forward (or cause
to be forwarded) the notices to the Beneficial Owners.
Beneficial Owners will receive a written confirmation of their purchase
detailing the terms of the Series 1990 Bonds acquired. Transfers of ownership
interest in the Series 1990 Bonds will be accomplished by book entries made by
DTC and the DTC Participants who act on behalf of the Beneficial Owners of the
Series 1990 Bonds. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates
representing their ownership interest. Payments on the Series 1990 Bonds will
be paid by the Paying Agent to DTC, then paid by DTC to the DTC Participants
and thereafter paid by the DTC Participants to the Beneficial Owners when due.
For every transfer and exchange of the Series 1990 Bonds, the Beneficial
Owner may be charged a sum sufficient to cover any tax, fee or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto.
DTC may determine to discontinue providing its services with respect to
the Series 1990 Bonds, at any time by giving notice to the City and
discharging its responsibilities with respect thereto under applicable law.
In addition, the City may determine that the use of DTC is no longer in the
best interests of the Beneficial Owners. If either of such determinations is
made, and the City identifies another qualified securities depository to
replace DTC, the City will make arrangements with DTC and such other
depository to effect such replacement and deliver replacement Series 1990
-4-
a 8
Bonds registered in the name of such other depository and its nominee in
exchange for the outstanding Series 1990 Bonds.
If the City fails to identify another qualified securities depository to
replace DTC or elects to discontinue a book entry only system, the City is
obligated to deliver, transfer and exchange the Series 1990 Bonds in the
manner described in the Bond Resolution. In addition, the Series 1990 Bonds
shall be paid by check or draft, mailed to the respective persons in whose
names the Series 1990 Bonds are registered as of the close of business on the
15th day (whether or not a business day) of the calendar month immediately
preceding an Interest Payment Date (the "Record Date"), drawn on the Paying
Agent. If and to the extent there is a default in the payment of the interest
due on any such Interest Payment Date, the defaulted interest will be paid to
the persons in whose names the Series 1990 Bonds are registered with the
Registrar as of the close of business on a special record date (the "Special
Record Date") established by notice mailed, postage prepaid, by the Bond
Registrar to the registered owners not less than 15 days preceding such
Special Record Date. The principal of and redemption premium, if any, on the
Series 1990 Bonds are payable at the principal corporate trust office of the
Paying Agent.
In the event of an insolvency of DTC, if DTC has insufficient securities
in the fungible bulk of securities in its custody (e.g., due to theft or loss)
to satisfy the claims of its DTC Participants with respect to deposited
securities and is unable by (1) application of cash deposits and securities
pledged to DTC to protect DTC against losses and liabilities; (2) the proceeds
of insurance maintained by DTC and/or its DTC Participants; or (3) other
resources, to obtain securities necessary to eliminate the insufficiency, DTC
Participants may not be able to obtain all of their deposited securities.
Redemption Provisions

redemption with respect to any other registered owner of a Series 1990 Bond
for which notice of redemption has been properly given. Each notice shall set
forth the date fixed for redemption, the rate of interest borne by each Series
1990 Bond being redeemed, the redemption date of each Series 1990 Bond being
redeemed, the name and address of the Bond Registrar, the redemption price to
be paid, and if less than all of the Series 1990 Bonds then outstanding shall
be called for redemption, the distinctive numbers and letters including CUSIP
numbers, if any, of such Series 1990 Bonds to be redeemed and, in the case of
Series 1990 Bonds to be redeemed in part only, the portion of the principal
amount thereof to be redeemed. If any Series 1990 Bond is to be redeemed in
part only, the notice of redemption which relates to such Series 1990 Bond
shall also state that on or after the redemption date, upon surrender of such
Series 1990 Bond, a new Series 1990 Bond or Series 1990 Bonds in a principal
amount equal to the unredeemed portion of such Series 1990 Bond will be
issued.
In addition to mailing the notice described above, each notice of
redemption and payment of the redemption price shall meet the requirements of
this paragraph; provided, however, that failure of such notice or payment to
comply with the terms of this paragraph shall not in any manner defeat the
effectiveness of a call for redemption if notice thereof is given as
prescribed above.
(a) Each notice of redemption shall be sent at least 35 days
before the redemption date by registered or certified mail or overnight
delivery service or telecopy to all registered securities depositories
then in the business of holding substantial amounts of obligations of
types comprising the Series 1990 Bonds (such depositories now being The
Depository Trust Company, New York, New York, Midwest Securities Trust
Company, Chicago, Illinois, and Philadelphia Depository Trust Company,
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) and to one or more national information
services that disseminate notices of redemption of obligations such as
the Series 1990 Bonds.
(b) Each notice of redemption shall be published one time in the
Bond Buyer of New York, New York, or, if such publication is impractical
or unlikely to reach a substantial number of the holders of the Bonds,
in some other financial newspaper or journal which regularly carries
sm

notices of redemption of other obligations similar to the Bonds, such
publication to be made at least 30 days prior to the date fixed for
redemption.
(c) Upon the payment of the redemption price of Bonds being
redeemed, each check or other transfer of funds issued for such purpose
shall bear the CUSIP number identifying, by issue and maturity, the
Series 1990 Bonds being redeemed with the proceeds of such check or
other transfer.

Limited Obligations
The Series 1990 Bonds are limited obligations of the City payable solely
from the Pledged Revenues which consist of certain Tax Increment Revenues (see
the section entitled "TAX INCREMENT REVENUES", below), the Guaranteed
Entitlement Revenues (see the section entitled "GUARANTEED ENTITLEMENT
REVENUES", below), and all monies held in the funds and accounts created by
the Bond Resolution.
The Series 1990 Bonds are payable solely from the Pledged Revenues. The
Series 1990 Bonds do not constitute a debt, liability or obligation of the
City, the CRA, the County or the State, or any political subdivision of any of
-7-

the foregoing, or a pledge of the full faith and credit of the City, the CRA,
the County, or the State, or any political subdivision of any of the
foregoing, but shall be payable solely from the Pledged Revenues and neither
the taxing power of the City, the County, or the State or any political
subdivision of any of the foregoing, is pledged to the payment of principal
on, redemption premium, if any, and interest on the Series 1990 Bonds. The
realization of sufficient Tax Increment Revenues for the payment of the Series
1990 Bonds will be dependent upon a variety of factors and circumstances which
the City cannot predict with certainty. See 'RISK FACTORS'.
Security Interest in Redevelopment Trust Fund.
In the Bond Resolution, the City assigned to itself and the holders of
the 1990 Bonds, the security interest in the Redevelopment Trust Fund granted
to the City by the CRA pursuant to the Interlocal Agreement through which the
City has a first lien on the Redevelopment Trust Fund.
Funds Held Pursuant to the Bond Resolution
Under the Bond Resolution, the City has created and established a
Revenue Fund, Sinking Fund, Reserve Fund, and a Rebate Fund. Each of these
Funds shall be held in trust by the Trustee and the Revenue Fund, the Sinking
Fund, the Reserve Fund and the Guaranteed Entitlement Fund shall each
constitute a trust fund to secure the holder of the Series 1990 Bonds on a pro
rata basis. The holders of the Series 1990 Bonds shall not have a lien on the
moneys held in the Rebate Fund. Each of the foregoing funds shall be, at all
times, kept separate and distinct by the Trustee from all other funds held by
the Trustee.
On and after November 1 of each Bond Year, the City shall transfer to
the Trustee for deposit in the Revenue Fund all Tax Increment Revenues on
deposit in the Redevelopment Trust Fund held by the CPA provided that no
further transfers shall be required in any Bond Year if (i) the aggregate
amounts on deposit in the Sinking Fund are equal to the principal and interest
due in such Bond Year on the Series 1990 Bonds, (ii) there are no deficiencies
in any of the funds and accounts, (iii) the Reserve Fund is fully funded or,
if applicable, the Reserve Product is in full force.
By the Trustee's close of business on March 1 of each Bond Year (or if
such March 1 is not a day on which the offices of the Trustee are open for
business, on the next succeeding day on which the offices of the Trustee are
open for business), the Issuer shall promptly transfer to the Trustee, for
deposit in the Reserve Fund, Guaranteed Entitlement Revenues in the amount of
$300,000.
Such moneys on deposit in the Revenue Fund shall be applied by the
Trustee as soon as they are received in the following manner:
(1) First, by the deposit to the credit of the Interest
Account in the Sinking Fund, and then, pro rata, into the
Principal Account and the Redemption Account in the Sinking Fund,
until the amounts on deposit therein are equal to the Bond Service
Requirement in such Bond Year for all Outstanding Bonds.
-B-

(2) Second, by deposit into the Reserve Fund, the amount,
if any, which, together with funds then on deposit therein, will
be sufficient to make the funds on deposit therein, except as
otherwise hereinafter provided, equal to the Reserve Requirement
for the Series 1990 Bonds (or, if applicable, the amount necessary
to reinstate the Reserve Product).
(3) Subsequent to April 1 of each year if there are any
amounts in the Revenue Fund in excess of the Bond Service
Requirement for such Bond Year on all Outstanding Bonds and any
prior deficiencies in the Sinking Fund and accounts therein and in
the Reserve Fund have been fully restored, and there is on deposit
in the Reserve Fund an amount equal to the Reserve Requirement,
such excess amounts shall be transferred by the Trustee to the
Redevelopment Trust Fund and shall be used by the CRA for any
lawful purpose.
The Bond Resolution establishes a Reserve Fund into which there is
required to be deposited, from proceeds, an amount which is equal to the
Reserve Requirement, as defined in the Bond Resolution. The amounts deposited
in the Reserve Fund, are to be used to pay principal, redemption premiums, if
any, and interest on the Series 1990 Bonds. Any excess on deposit in the
Reserve Fund shall be deposited to the Revenue Fund at least annually. Any
deficiencies shall be made up from Pledged Revenues on deposit in the Sinking
Fund.
Rebate Fund. The City has covenanted to comply with the requirements of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, with respect to investments.
In the Resolution, the City established a Rebate Fund which shall be held by
the Trustee apart from the other funds established pursuant to the Resolution
and such Rebate Fund shall not be subject to a lien in favor of the
bondholders. The City shall make deposits to such Rebate Fund, if necessary,
in accordance with certain rebate covenants.
Additional Parity Bonds
Additional Bonds on a parity with the Series 1990 Bonds may be issued
only if:
(1) There shall be executed and filed with the City, a consent by the
Bond Insurer, if any, to the issuance of such Additional Bonds and if present
funds are insufficient to pay debt service on the Additional Bonds there is an
increase in the Guaranteed Entitlement or an increase in the Tax Increment
Revenues such that there are amounts sufficient to pay all of the principal
of, interest on and redemption premium, if any, with respect to such
Additional Bonds and all other costs and expenses with respect thereto and
there shall have been delivered to the City and the CRA an opinion of legal
counsel regarding the legality and enforceability of such supplement or
amendment and such other matters as the Issuer or the CRA shall reasonably
request.
IM
90- 871
Ll
(2) Each ordinance, resolution, or other enabling instrument
authorizing the issuance of Additional Bonds will recite that all of the
covenants herein contained will be applicable to such Additional Bonds.
(3) There shall have been no reduction in the Guaranteed Entitlement
and there shall have been no curtailing or any attempt to curtail any payment
of Tax Increment Revenues the CRA is entitled to.
(4) The Chief Financial Officer of the City shall file with the City
Clerk a certificate, to the effect that (i) the City is not in default in the
performance of any of the covenants and obligations assumed by it hereunder or
under any ordinance, resolution or other enabling instrument of the Issuer
pursuant to which Additional Bonds have been issued, and (ii) all payments
herein required to have been made into the funds and accounts provided by the
Bond Resolution or by such other ordinance, resolution or enabling instrument
shall have been made in full to the extent required.
(5) The City Attorney shall file with the City Clerk an opinion to the
effect that the issuance of such Additional Bonds has been duly authorized and
that all conditions precedent to the delivery of such Additional Bonds have
been fulfilled.
(6) An opinion of Bond Counsel shall be delivered to the City Clerk to
the effect that the issuance of Additional Bonds will not impair the exclusion
from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest paid on any
Bonds issued hereunder and then Outstanding.
(7) There shall have been obtained and filed with the City a
certificate by the Chief Financial Officer certifying the amount of the (a)
Guaranteed Entitlement and (b) Tax Increment Revenues received by the Issuer
as determined under standard auditing procedures for any twelve (12)
consecutive months immediately preceding the calendar month in which such
Additional Bonds are proposed to be issued. In rendering such certificate,
the Chief Financial Officer may rely upon audited financial statements of the
City prepared by independent certified public accountants. [The amount of
items (a) and (b) above so determined may include an adjustment to reflect an
increase therein if such increase shall have, by subsequent ordinance or
resolution, been pledged to the payment of all 1990 Bonds then Outstanding and
such proposed Additional Bonds.]
(8) There shall have been obtained and filed with the City a
certificate of the Chief Financial Officer pursuant to which he shall certify
that the Guaranteed Entitlement and the Tax Increment Revenues as certified in
paragraph (7) above were at least equal to one hundred twenty-five percent
(1251) of the maximum amount during any remaining Bond Year of the Aggregate
of the Debt Service Requirement for such Bond Year payable with respect to all
Bonds then Outstanding under the Resolution (other than Bonds which are to be
retired or defeated upon the issuance of such Additional Bonds) and any
Additional Bonds proposed to be issued.

TAX INCREMENT REVENUES
LI
Generally
Pursuant to the Act, the County is the governing body for all community
redevelopment areas established within Dade County. The Redevelopment Area
was designated by the County in Resolution No. R-1677-82 which was adopted on
December 7, 1982, and amended by the County in Ordinance No. 86-4. The County
also enacted Ordinance No. 82-115 on December 21, 1982, (the "1982 Ordinance")
which, among other things, approved the use of tax increment financing to
finance the cost of improvements to the Redevelopment Area, established the
Redevelopment Trust Fund, set forth the County's obligation to appropriate
annually tax increment revenues for deposit in the Redevelopment Trust Fund,
required that all financing documents be approved by the County and agreed to
delegate certain community redevelopment responsibilities to the City pursuant
to the Interlocal Cooperation Agreement. On March 18, 1983, the County
adopted Resolution No. 83-187 which authorized the County Manager to execute
the Interlocal Cooperation Agreement with the City which was finalized on
March 31, 1983. The Interlocal Cooperation Agreement was amended by the
County and the City on January 22, 1985. The County approved the issuance of
the Series 1990 Bonds and approved a further amendment to the Interlocal
Cooperation Agreement when it adopted a Resolution on October 18, 1990. The
Series 1990 Bonds are secured in part by the pledge of Tax Increment Revenues
deposited into the Redevelopment Trust Fund established by the 1982 Ordinance.
Pursuant to the Act and the Interlocal Cooperation Agreement, the City and
County are required to make payments to the Redevelopment Trust Fund on or
before January 1 of each year.
Pursuant to the Act, on or before each January 1, the City and the
County must appropriate and pay to the Redevelopment Trust Fund an amount
equal to 95Z of the difference between:
(1) The amount of ad valorem taxes levied each year by that taxing
authority, exclusive of any amount from any debt service millage, on taxable
real property contained within the geographic boundaries of the Redevelopment
Area; and
(2) The amount of ad valorem taxes which would have been produced by
the millage rate upon which the tax is levied each year by or for that taxing
authority, exclusive of any debt service millage, upon the assessed valuation
of the taxable real property in the Redevelopment Area as of (i) with respect
to the original Redevelopment Area as described in Appendix A, Map A-2, (the
"Original Redevelopment Area"), January 1, 1982 as shown on the preliminary ad
valorem assessment roll for 1982 prepared by the County's Property Appraiser,
and (ii) with respect to the additional portion of the Redevelopment Area,
which was added in 1985 when the Redevelopment Plan was amended, as described
in Appendix A, Map A-3 (the "Additional Redevelopment Area"), January 1, 1986
as shown on the preliminary ad valorem assessment roll for 1985 prepared by
the County's Property Appraiser.
The assessment in each of these base years constitutes the floor upon
which any increase in the assessed value in excess of the floor will be used
to determine the incremental tax revenues.
-11-
9 0 -- 871
The resulting incremental increase in ad valorem taxes is used to
measure the amount of the contribution which must be appropriated and
contributed by each taxing authority which is required to make payments.
Under Florida law, the statutory obligation of the City and the County to make
the required payments to a duly established redevelopment trust fund continues
until all loans, advances and indebtedness, if any, and interest thereon, have
been paid.
In accordance with the Interlocal Cooperation Agreement, the County is
obligated to fund on January 1 of each year through annual appropriations the
Redevelopment Trust Fund until December, 1986 or until any obligations issued
with respect to the Redevelopment Area are no longer outstanding. Although no
obligations were outstanding as of December, 1986, the County has not
rescinded its obligation to fund the Redevelopment Trust Fund. Upon the
issuance of the Series 1990 Bonds, the County's obligation shall continue
until the Series 1990 Bonds are no longer outstanding.
In the Bond Resolution, the City covenanted to pay all Pledged Revenues
to the Trustee immediately upon receipt. Pursuant to the Interlocal
Agreement, the CRA granted a first lien security interest in the Tax Increment
Revenues to the City for the benefit of the bondholders. The CRA also
covenanted not to take, or consent to, or permit any action which will impair
or adversely affect the obligation of the City or the County to appropriate
its proportionate share of such revenues.
Calculation of Tax Increment Revenues
With respect to the payment of the Series 1,990 Bonds, the method of
measuring and calculating the annual contribution of Tax Increment Revenues
required to be made by the City and the County is dependent upon the
assessment value of the real property as of January 1 of each year and the
millage rate established by the City and the County for that same year.
Generally, Florida law currently mandates the following procedures in
establishing the assessed value of real property and in fixing millage rates:
(a) January 1 of each year is the statutory measurement date used by
each county property appraiser for establishing just value of real property
within the county. Real property improvements or portions thereof not
substantially completed on January 1 are deemed to have no value placed
thereon, and substantially completed property as of January 1 is assessed by
the county property appraiser based on its just value.
(b) On or before July 1 of each year, each county property appraiser
is required to complete an assessment of the value of all property located
within the county (unless extended for good cause by the State Department of
Revenue). Upon completion of this assessment, the county property appraiser
is required to certify to each taxing authority the taxable value within the
jurisdiction of the taxing authority. This certification includes the just
value of new construction, additions to structures, deletions and property
added due to geographic boundary changes substantially complete as of January
1 of each year.
-12-
9 U— 871
(c) Each taxing authority is required to compute the millage known as
the "rolled back rate." That rate is the rate which, exclusive of (i) new
construction, (ii) additions to structures, (iii) deletions, and (iv) property
added due to geographic boundary changes, will provide the same ad valorem tax
revenue for each taxing authority as was levied during the prior year.
(d) Upon preparation of a tentative budget, but prior to adoption
thereof, each taxing authority in addition to computing the "rolled back rate"
is required to compute the proposed millage rate which would be necessary to
fund the tentative budget, other than the portion of the budget to be funded
from non ad valorem taxes. In computing proposed or final millage rates, each
taxing authority utilizes not less than 95Z of the taxable value certified by
the county property appraiser. In establishing the tentative budget and the
proposed millage rate, the taxing authority is not bound by the "rolled back
rate" and, in accordance with Florida law, may exceed the "rolled back rate"
or may even adopt a tentative budget and proposed millage rate which would be
less than the "rolled back rate."
(e) Within 35 days of the county property appraiser's certification,
each taxing authority is required to advise the county property appraiser of
its proposed millage rate and the "rolled back rate" and the date and time at
which a public hearing will be held to consider the proposed millage rate and
the tentative budget. The county property appraiser utilizes this information
in preparing the notice of proposed property taxes required to be mailed to
property owners. Additionally, if this information is not provided in a
timely fashion as required by statute, the taxing authority is prohibited from
levying a millage rate greater than the "rolled back rate" for the upcoming
fiscal year.
(f) Each taxing authority is statutorily required to hold a minimum of
two public hearings on the proposed millage rate and tentative budget prior to
adopting a final millage rate and a final budget. At the first public
hearing, the taxing authority may amend the tentative budget and proposed
millage rate as it deems fit and adopt a tentative budget and proposed millage
rate. At the second public hearing, the taxing authority may adopt the final
budget and final millage rate. The final budget and final millage rate
adopted at the second hearing cannot exceed the tentative budget and tentative
millage rate adopted at the first public hearing. Except as otherwise
provided by statute, no millage rate (exclusive of ad valorem debt service
millage) for the county and the city may annually exceed 10 mills each without
voter approval.
The final millage rate is that millage rate used to calculate the tax
increment revenue payments required to be made to a redevelopment trust fund
on or before January 1 of the next year. Final millage rates generally should
have been adopted by October 1 of each year, to allow sufficient time for
taxing authorities to calculate the required payment to the redevelopment
trust fund and to submit the same on or before January 1. Pursuant to
statute, unless otherwise permitted by law, final budgets must be adopted by
taxing authorities prior to the beginning of a taxing authority's fiscal year
which is October 1 of each year. Typically, property tax statements are
mailed on or about November 1, with collection through November 30 providing a
-13-
1i 0 - 8171
maximum discount of 41 and descending to OX as of March 1 of the following
year. Taxes are delinquent as of April 1.
Tax Increment Revenues for the Redevelopment Area --Historical and Projected
The Tax Increment Revenues will be collected by the City pursuant to the
Interlocal Cooperation Agreement. The assessed value of taxable real property
in the Original Redevelopment Area was $78,305,502 as of January 1, 1982 and
in the Additional Redevelopment Area was $37,461,910, as of January 1, 1985.
Since 1986, and for all future years, the aggregate assessed value of taxable
real property in the Original and Additional Redevelopment Areas, for purposes
of calculating the tax incremental tax revenues, is and will be $115,767,412.
The amount of Tax Increment Revenues to be received in any year depends upon
the assessed valuation of taxable real property in the Redevelopment Area as
of January 1 of such year, the incremental increase in such valuation above
the valuation for the base years and the total millage rate levied by the
relevant taxing authorities (including the County). All of these factors are
beyond the control of the City.
The following table sets forth historical and anticipated collections of
Tax Increment Revenues in the Redevelopment Area from 1985-1986 through fiscal
year 1994-1995. The City cannot provide any assurances that the Tax Increment
Revenues actually realized will meet the forecasts for the fiscal years after
1990-1991, and there are possible circumstances that could adversely affect
the realization of such Tax Increment Revenues, see 'RISK FACTORS'.

GUARANTEED ENTITLEMENT REVENUES
General
The Florida Revenue Sharing Act of 1922, Part II, Chapter 218, Florida
Statutes (the "Revenue Sharing Act") provides for the distribution of certain
revenues by the State to units of local government, including municipalities,
such as the City. All revenues received by a municipality from the State
pursuant to the Revenue Sharing Act are designated Revenue Sharing Receipts.
The Revenue Sharing Act includes a formula to determine the monthly Revenue
Sharing Receipts to be distributed from the Revenue Sharing Trust Fund For
Municipalities, which is the fund to which the State deposits the Revenue
Sharing Receipts. It also provides that no eligible municipality shall
receive less Revenue Sharing Funds from the State than that amount received by
such municipality from the State in the fiscal year 1971-1972 from the sum of
the State cigarette tax, State road tax and State motor fuel tax (the
"Guaranteed Entitlement"). The State road tax is no longer a part of the
Guaranteed Entitlement, but the amount to be received in each fiscal year is
unaffected. The Revenue Sharing Act further provides that there shall be no
-16-
00-- S71
use restriction on the Guaranteed Entitlement portion of the total State
Revenue Sharing Receipts ("Guaranteed Entitlement Revenues"). However,
receipt of the Guaranteed Entitlement moneys is solely dependent on the
continuing payment of revenue sharing by the State of Florida, on which no
assurance can be given.
The Series 1990 Bonds will be secured by a pledge of $300,000 per year
by the City from the proceeds of its Guaranteed Entitlement Revenues. The
City's limited pledge of $300,000 in Guaranteed Entitlement Revenues will be
on a parity with the City's $6,500,000 Guaranteed Entitlement Revenue Bonds,
Series 1989 (the "Senior Lien Bonds"), and subordinate and junior to the
City's obligation to set aside $2,000,000 per fiscal year (October 1 through
September 30) through fiscal year 1995 to repay a loan made to the City by the
First Municipal Loan Council ("Municipal Council Loan").
The City has covenanted that it will not take any action which will
impair or adversely affect the Guaranteed Entitlement Revenues and has further
covenanted to take all lawful action necessary or required to continue to
entitle the City to receive its Guaranteed Entitlement Revenues in the same
amounts and at the same rates as now provided by law to pay the principal of
and interest on the Series 1990 Bonds, and to make any other payments required
under the Bond Resolution.
The City's Guaranteed Entitlement Revenues and Revenue Sharing Receipts
Only the City's Guaranteed Entitlement is available to be pledged on a
parity and subordinated basis to the payment of debt service for the Series
1990 Bonds since the Revenue Sharing Act prohibits the City from pledging any
portion of the Revenue Sharing Receipts received by the City in excess of its
Guaranteed Entitlement Revenues. The following table sets forth the City's
Guaranteed Entitlement, Revenue Sharing Receipts in excess of its Guaranteed
Entitlement and its total Revenue Sharing Receipts for the fiscal years

The City's Guaranteed Entitlement is not affected by any increase in the
tax on cigarettes and motor fuel since it may only pledge its Guaranteed
Entitlement Revenues portion. Since the additional receipts it receives are

equal to its Guaranteed Entitlement Revenues, it is unlikely that any
significant decrease in the taxes would affect is Guaranteed Entitlement
Revenues since the reduction will first affect the Additional Receipts.

DEBT SERVICE REQUIREMENTS AND COVERAGE
The following table sets forth estimated debt service requirements for
the Series 1990 Bonds and estimated debt service coverage to be provided from
the Pledged Revenues. After 1991, the Tax Increment Revenues are based upon
the estimates of the City. The table below assumes constant receipts of tax
increment revenues on and after January 1, 1997, but actual tax increment
revenue receipts may vary significantly and could be less than such estimates.

The Redevelopment Area is situated within the municipal boundaries
of the City. It is located immediately north of the central business district
to which there has been significant and positive physical economic changes
over the past five years. The completion of a number of significant and
commercial projects within the central business district of the City such as
the Southeast Financial Center, the Dade County Metropolitan Government
Center, the CenTrust Financial Center, the World Trade Center, the Courthouse
Tower and Bayside have added thousands of private jobs and have attracted even
greater numbers of visitors, businesses and tourists to Downtown Miami.
The boundaries of the original Redevelopment Area were N.W. 5th
Street on the South, I-95 on the West, I-395 on the North and Biscayne
Boulevard on the East. In 1985, the Redevelopment Area was expanded to
include additional real property to the South. The boundaries of this new
part of the Redevelopment Area are N.W. 5th Street on the North, North Miami
Avenue on the East, N.E. First Street on the South and the Metrorail transit
lines on the West. Maps of the original Redevelopment Area and the current
Redevelopment Area, respectively, are set forth in Appendix A.
-19-
00
Included within the Redevelopment Area are two distinct sub areas
which have been designated Park West and Southeast Overtown. The warehousing
and general commercial areas located East of the FEC Railroad Right -of -Way
("Right -of -Way") are known as Park West and the predominantly low income
community to the West of the Right -of -Way and East of I-95 and South of I-395
is Southeast Overtown. The Southeast Overtown subsection is part of a larger,
predominantly black community known as Overtown. Until recently, neither Park
West nor Overtown experienced the major economic spin-off effects which were
generated by the massive development in the central business district of the
City. Under the provisions of the Florida Community Redevelopment Act of
1969, as amended, the City and County have developed an extensive
redevelopment plan to rejuvenate the Redevelopment Area through the
acquisition of land and the removal of blight.
Redevelopment Objectives
With respect to the Southeast Overtown portion of the
Redevelopment Area, the City has established a number of objectives.
Specifically, the City hopes to accomplish the following, among others,
through the Redevelopment Plan:
1. provide better employment opportunities and upper mobility for
residents;
2, provide opportunities for minorities (residents) to manage and own
businesses;
3. maintain existing business and attract new business;
4. rehabilitate existing housing;
5. replace dilapidated housing;
6. provide opportunity for residents to continue to live in Overtown;
7. promote home ownership and new housing for moderate income families
and encourage an income mix in all housing;
8. restore a sense of community and unify the area culturally; and
9. preserve historic buildings and sites.
In the Park West area, the City's objectives, among others, are as
follows:
1. reinforce the property tax base;
3. encourage day and night activities in downtown Miami;
4. reduce travel distance for downtown workers;
5. minimize adverse impact and promote existing viable commercial and
industrial uses which complement the business activities at the Port
of Miami located downtown;
6. expand housing choices for Downtown workers; and
7. encourage comprehensive, large scale redevelopment.
Recent Developments within the Redevelopment Area
The City, through its Community Redevelopment Agency, has previously
acquired real property within the Redevelopment Area in order to begin to
implement the Redevelopment Plan. Pursuant to the terms of a Section 108 Loan
Agreement, dated February 7, 1988, the City borrowed $5,958,400 from the
United States Department of Housing and Urban Development ("HUD"). The loan
-20-
90-- 871
AdaL
P41 ow
proceeds were used along with $28,000,000 of City funds, by the City to
acquire and renovate certain real property and to make other improvements
within the Redevelopment Area. A portion of the real property acquired by
the City has been leased to a number of developers for the construction of
rental units and condominium units.
One of the new multi -family housing projects which offers affordable
housing is Arena Towers, which is comprised of a 21-story building containing
204 dwelling units, a 16-story building containing 152 dwelling units and a
481 space parking garage. The 16 story building was completed prior to
January 1, 1990 and currently is approximately 85Z occupied. The other
building and the parking facility were completed in February of 1990. The
Arena Towers complex is located just North of the Miami Arena on the opposite
side of the street.
The Biscayne View Apartments is another housing project which offers
affordable housing and is being developed on land leased from the City. It is
located adjacent to the Arena Towers on the North and is comprised of a
30-story apartment building and a 3-story building with townhouses and walk-up
apartment units, for a total of 463 apartment units. The Biscayne View
Apartments are scheduled to be completed on or about November 1, 1990.
The City has also leased land to a private developer for the
construction of Poinciana Village, 152 condominium units which are located to
the West of the Miami Arena. Phase I consists of 40 units of which 12 have
been completed, and the remaining 28 are almost finished. At the present
time, 34 of the 40 units have been sold.
THE PROJECT
In addition to retiring the $5,958,400 HUD loan, including any accrued
interest to the date of payment, the proceeds of the Series 1990 Bonds shall
be used to reimburse the City for a $750, 000 advance by the City to the CRA
for payment of expenses with respect to the Redevelopment Plan and Program, to
finance the cost of certain infrastructure improvements such as street
improvements, sidewalks and landscaping to the area between N.W. 7th Street
and N.W. 9th Street, and to acquire a number of parcels which are located in
the Southeast Overtown subsection of the Redevelopment Area. The City has
already begun to acquire the property included in the Project and anticipates
that the acquisition of the various components of the Project will be
completed by June 1992, but such acquisition may be delayed due to litigation
over the City's taking by eminent domain. See "RISK FACTORS".
RISK FACTORS
The ability of the City to make timely payments of ,)rincipal of,
redemption premium, if any, and interest on the Series 1990 Bonds depends
solely upon the ability of the City to collect sufficient Tax Increment
Revenues based upon real property in the Redevelopment Area which, when added
to interest earned thereon and the $300,000 in Guaranteed Entitlement Revenues
will be adequate to make such payments. The Series 1990 Bonds are not general
obligations supported by the full faith and credit of the City, the CRA, the
County or any other political subdivision of the State, but are payable solely
-21-
9 0 - 871
u
g o - 8'71
from the Pledged Funds. Neither the State, the County, the City, the CRA, or
any other political subdivision of the State has any obligation or power under
the Bond Resolution or under Florida law to levy any taxes or any
responsibility thereunder to appropriate funds from any other source
whatsoever in order to pay debt service on the Series 1990 Bonds or to avail
or cure any default in any such payments.
Except for the Debt Service Reserve Account (Debt Service Reserve
Account Surety Bond], there is no fund or account under the Bond Resolution
which is required to contain amounts to make up for any deficiencies in the
event of one or more defaults by the City in making payments of debt service
on the Series 1990 Bonds, and there is no source from which the Sinking Fund
will be replenished except the Tax Increment Revenues, the Guaranteed
Entitlement Revenues, and investment income on moneys in the Funds held by the
Trustee. There can be no representation or assurance that the City will
realize sufficient Tax Increment Revenues to pay, when due, all required
payments of debt service on the Series 1990 Bonds.
The following paragraphs summarize some of the risks involved in a
Florida tax increment financing such as the Series 1990 Bonds. Such summaries
are not intended to be an exhaustive list of risk factors in connection with
the Series 1990 Bonds.
1. Competition from Comparable Developments Outside the
Redevelopment Area. The City's growth strategy for the Redevelopment
Area is in competition with other communities located outside the
Redevelopment Area whose growth will not generate Tax Increment Revenues
for the payment of the Series 1990 Bonds. In the event that a large
number of condominium, rental or commercial projects are constructed in
the City outside the Redevelopment Area, the demand for residential
housing within the Redevelopment Area could be reduced, thereby leading
to a possible reduction in the assessed taxable value of the Arena
Towers and the Biscayne View Apartments or the suppression of future
development in the Redevelopment Area.
2. State National and International Economic and Political
Factors. Certain economic or political developments, such as downturns
in the State, national or international economy, increased national or
internationally barriers to tourism or trade or international currency
fluctuations could all adversely affect the continued development of the
Redevelopment Area or its attraction to businesses and investors.
3. Failure to Achieve Increases in Property Values. Numerous
events could occur that might reduce or cause stagnation in the value of
real property within the Redevelopment Area, including natural
disasters; public acquisition of property within the Redevelopment Area
by the State or political subdivisions exercising their respective
rights of eminent domain; or social, economic or demographic factors (or
adverse public perceptions thereto) beyond the control of the City or
the taxpayers in the Redevelopment Area. Any or all of such events
could adversely affect the realization and collection of Tax Increment
Revenues.
-22-
9 0 --- 871
4. Impact of Additional Taxpayers or Increased Property Values
Outside the Redevelopment Area. The addition of significant numbers of
new taxpayers or an increase of property values outside the
Redevelopment Area could result in an environment favorable to the
reduction of the County and/or City millage rates that would, in turn,
reduce collection of Tax Increment Revenues.
5. Appeals of Assessments. State law allows taxpayers to dispute
assessment valuations. Various State, local, national and international
economic conditions may influence a taxpayer's willingness to make or
forgo such an appeal. The statutory method for determining Tax
Increment Revenues uses a factor of 952, due in part to an expectation
of some such appeals. Any volume of appeals which are successful in
reducing the overall assessed value of the Redevelopment Area in excess
of such a margin of error could result in decreased collections of Tax
Increment Revenues.
6. Failure of New Projects to Achieve Economic Success. In the
event the Arena Towers and/or the Biscayne View Apartments encounter
financial difficulties, or the Gran Central Office complex is never
built or leased, the taxable assessed value of the Redevelopment Area
may be reduced due to the decrease in value of the apartments and will
not generate the additional tax increment revenues anticipated from the
construction of the Gran Central project. Since the City has relied on
the 1990-91 Tax Increment Revenues to determine the amount of Series
1990 Bonds to be issued, such failure, however, may only have a minimal
effect on the City's ability to pay the principal of and interest on the
Series 1990 Bonds.
7. Litigation Pertaining to the Project. The Project will
involve, among other things, the acquisition of all or a portion of four
city blocks in the Redevelopment Area. It is anticipated that the City
will be able to negotiate with the owners for the purchase of the
individual parcels within the City blocks. In the event an agreed upon
price cannot be negotiated, the City believes that it has the power to
take all of the subject properties by eminent domain and believes that
such power will be upheld by the courts. The City further believes that
it will be capable of making any and all payments of adjudicated
purchase prices of such parcels under eminent domain. However, even if
the City is ultimately successful in any eminent domain proceedings that
may have to be instituted, such eminent domain litigation could
materially delay the commencement of the development of the parcels and,
if a large number of parcels become entangled in eminent domain
proceedings, the availability of additional Tax Increment Revenues which
may be used for the repayment of the Series 1990 Bonds may be delayed.
INC0ME TAX EFFECTS
In the opinion of Co -Bond Counsel, under existing law, interest on the
Series 1990 Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax
purposes. Also, in the opinion of Co -Bond Counsel, under existing law the
Series 1990 Bonds are exempt from all present intangible personal property
taxes imposed by the State of Florida. The opinion of Co -Bond Counsel is
-23-
90-- 871
j
WLi
rendered in reliance upon certain cash flow schedules calculating the yield on
the Series 1990 Bonds and upon the certificate of
verifying the accuracy of the schedules calculating the yield on the Series
1990 Bonds.
The opinion of Co -Bond Counsel is also subject to the condition that the
City comply with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code"), that must be satisfied subsequent to the issuance of the
Series 1990 Bonds in order that interest thereon be, or continue to be,
excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Those
requirements include restrictions regarding the terms, amount and purpose of
the Series 1990 Bonds and the use of the proceeds of the Series 1990 Bonds.
The City has included provisions and procedures in the Bond Resolution in
order to meet such requirements of the Code with respect to the Series 1990
Bonds, and the City and the Trustee have covenanted to comply with such
provisions and procedures. Those requirements further include the arbitrage
rebate obligation contained in Section 148 of the Code. The City has
covenanted to comply with each requirement of the Code that must be satisfied
subsequent to the issuance of the Series 1990 Bonds in order that interest
thereon be, or continue to be, excluded from gross income for federal income
tax purposes. Failure to comply with any of those requirements may cause the
inclusion of interest on the Series 1990 Bonds in gross income for federal
income tax purposes, retroactive to the date of issuance of the Series 1990
Bonds.
An alternative minimum tax is imposed by the Code on corporations at a
twenty percent (20I) rate and on taxpayers other than corporations at a
twenty-one percent (21X) rate. Interest on the Series 1990 Bonds will be
treated as an item of tax preference for purposes of the alternative minimum
tax and included in an individual or corporate bondholder's alternative
minimum taxable income.
A copy of the proposed form of the opinion of Co -Bond Counsel to be
rendered on the Delivery Date is attached hereto as Appendix D. Co -Bond
Counsel has not expressed an opinion regarding the other federal income tax
consequences arising with respect to the Series 1990 Bonds. For a description
of some of the possible federal income tax consequences, see the following
paragraphs.
1. Environmental Superfund Tax. Section 59A of the Code imposes for
taxable years beginning before January 1, 1992, an additional tax on
corporations at a rate of .12 percent on the excess over $2,000,000 of a
corporation's "modified alternative minimum taxable income". Interest on the
Series 1990 Bonds received by a corporate bondholder will be included in the
determination of such bondholder's "modified alternative minimum taxable
income".
2. Financial Institutions and Certain Insurance Companies. Section
265 of the Code provides that a financial institution holding the Series 1990
Bonds will be denied any deduction for its interest expense allocable to such
Series 1990 Bonds. Under Section 832(b)(5)(B) of the Code, insurance
companies subject to the tax imposed by Section 831 of the Code, including
property and casualty insurance companies, are required to reduce the amount
-24-
y0-- 8"71

Wei
of their deductible underwriting losses
interest received from investments made
investments in the Series 1990 Bonds.
by 152 of the amount of tax-exempt
after August 7, 1986, including
3. Social Security and Railroad Retirement Benefits. Under Section
86 of the Code, recipients of certain social security benefits and railroad
retirement benefits may be required to include a portion of such benefits
within gross income by reason of the receipt of interest on the Series 1990
Bonds.
4. S Corporations. Section 1375 of the Code imposes a tax on the
income of an S Corporation having Subchapter C earnings and profits at the
close of a taxable year, if greater than twenty-five percent (25I) of the
gross receipts of such S Corporation is passive investment income. Interest
on the Series 1990 Bonds will be included in an S Corporation's passive
investment income.
5. Foreign Corporation Branch Offices Tax. Section 884 of the Code
imposes a branch profits tax on foreign corporations equal to thirty percent
(30x) of the "dividend equivalent amount" for the taxable year. Interest on
the Series 1990 Bonds would be taken into account in determining a foreign
corporate bondholder's "dividend equivalent amount" to the extent such
interest is effectively connected (or treated as effectively connected) with
the foreign corporate bondholder's conduct of a trade or business within the
United States.
Other provisions of the Code may give rise to adverse federal income tax
consequences to particular bondholders. Owners of the Series 1990 Bonds
should consult their own tax advisors with respect to tax consequences to them
of owning the Series 1990 Bonds.
LITIGATION
There is no litigation pending or threatened that seeks to restrain or
enjoin the issuance or delivery of the Series 1990 Bonds or the proceedings or
authority under which they are to be issued or delivered. There is no
litigation pending or threatened which, in any manner, questions the right of
the City to pledge its Tax Increment Revenues or the Guaranteed Entitlement
Revenues, as described herein, to the repayment of the Series 1990 Bonds.
CITY
The Series 1990 Bonds shall be issued by the City pursuant to the
Interlocal Cooperation Agreement and the Bond Resolution. For a description
of the City and the County see Appendix C.
VALIDATION
The Series 1990 Bonds were validated by a judgment
of the Eleventh Judicial Circuit in and for Dade County,
1990. The time for taking an appeal has expired,
judgment has become final.

APPENDIX B
GENERAL INFORMATION PERTAINING TO METROPOLITAN DADE COUNTY
AND THE CITY OF MIAMI, FLORIDA
94- 8'71
APPENDIX B
DESCRIPTION OF THE CITY OF MIAMI
Geography
The City, situated at the mouth of the Miami River on the western shore
of Biscayne Bay, is a main port of entry in Florida and the county seat of
Metropolitan Dade County (the "County") which encompasses over 2,000 square
miles of Florida's southeastern region. The City comprises 34.3 square miles
of land and 19.5 square miles of water.
Miami is the southern -most major city and seaport in the continental
United States and the center of Pan-American trade and air transportation.
The nearest foreign territory is the Bahamian island of Bimini, situated
approximately fifty miles off the coast of Florida. The County is often
referred to herein as Greater Miami.
Climate
Due to its location near the upper boundary of the tropical zone, Miami's
climate is strongly influenced by the Gulf Stream, trade winds and other local
climatic factors. Its average yearly temperature is 75.5 degrees Fahrenheit.
Summer temperatures average 81.4 degrees Fahrenheit. and winter temperatures
average 69.1 degrees Fahrenheit. Rainfall comes most frequently between the
months of May and September, with June the heaviest, averaging nine inches.
Population
The U.S. Bureau of Census estimated the population of the City at
346,865 as of April 1, 1980. The 1989 population of the City has been
estimated to be 371,444 by the State of Florida Division of Population
Studies, Bureau of Business and Economic Research, University of Florida.
During 1980, the City population increased by 50,000 to approximately
400,000, due to a large influx of Cuban and Haitian refugees. Some of these
people have subsequently relocated to other jurisdictions. The 1989
population of 371,444 provided by the State of Florida is being challenged by
the City. According to City estimates, the population is expected to increase
to 400,000 by the year 2000.
Government of the City
The City has operated under the Commission -City Manager form of
government since 1921. The Commission consists of five elected citizens, who
are qualified voters in the City, one of whom serves as Mayor. The Commission
acts as the governing body of the City with powers to enact ordinances, adopt
B-1
90- 8,71
resolutions and appoint a chief administrative officer known as the City
Manager. The City Clerk and City Attorney, as well as members of the Planning
Advisory Board, the Zoning Board, the City of Miami Health Facilities
Authority and the Miami Sports and Exhibition Authority are also appointed by
the City Commission. Members of the Off-street Parking Board and the Downtown
Development Authority are appointed by the respective bodies and ratified by
the Commission.
City elections are held in November every two years on a non -partisan
basis. Candidates for Mayor must run as such for a four year term, and not
for the Commission in general. At each election two members of the Commission
are elected for four-year terms. Thus, the City Commissioners' terms are
staggered so that there are always at least two experienced members on the
Commission.
The City Manager serves as the administrative head of the municipal
government, charged with the responsibility of managing the City's financial
operations and organizing and directing the administrative infrastructure.
The City manager also retains full authority in the appointment and
supervision of department directors, preparation of the City's annual budget
and initiation of investigative procedures. In addition, the City Manager
takes appropriate action on all administrative matters.

ECONOMIC AND DEMOGRAPHIC DATA
Introduction and Recent Developments
The City's diversified economic base is comprised of light
manufacturing, trade, commerce, wholesale and retail trade, and tourism.
While the City's share of Florida's tourist trade remains an important
economic force, the great gains the City has made in the areas of banking,
international business, real estate and transhipment have fortified the
economic base.
Major capital improvements have allowed the area to accommodate and
foster this rapid expansion. The Port of Miami has almost doubled in size,
from 325 acres to 600 acres through a $250 million expansion program completed
in 1981. The Port expansion program is designed to move 16 million tons of
cargo and four million cruise ship passengers a year by the year 2000.
Miami International Airport is undergoing a $1.0 billion expansion
program. A seven story 7,500 space parking structure, directly across from
the main terminal, has been completed. An elevated pedestrian sky bridge,
opened in early 1985, connects the parking structure to the main terminal.

Other projects include the construction of a direct connector road to the
airport expressway, and a cargo tunnel. Expansion and modernization of
passenger gate areas continues in order to accommodate the increase in
domestic and international passenger traffic.
Downtown Miami experienced unprecedented growth during the 1980's,
particularly in the development of commercial office space. Completed
projects represent an estimated investment of public and private funds in
excess of $2.4 billion.
Bayside
The house Company, a leading builder of specialty marketplaces in downtown
waterfront settings, has developed the Bayside Specialty Center on twenty
acres of City -owed property along the waterfront in Downtown Miami. The
project currently features 235,000 sq. ft. of retail space. Total project
cost was $128 million, with City participation limited to a $4 million
investment in infrastructure improvements. The Bayside Parking Garage,
located adjacent to the specialty center, contains 1,200 parking spaces.
Bayfront Park
Bayfront Park, adjacent to the Bayside project area, is currently being
redeveloped at a total project cost in excess of $20 million. More than fifty
percent of the project financing has been secured by the City through a
variety of Federal, state and private funding sources.
Miami Arena
The County levies a 3% Convention Development Tax on hotel rooms, of
which the City receives one-third. This tax is received by the Miami Sports
and Exhibition Authority to finance its operations and debt service cost. The
most significant project financed by the Authority is the Miami Arena located
within the Southeast Overtown/Parkwest redevelopment area, home to the Miami
Heat and the University of Miami Hurricanes. The 300,000 square feet multi-
purpose facility, completed in 1988 at a total cost of $48 million,
accommodates up to 15,600 spectators.
Corporate Expansion
The favorable geographic location of Greater Miami, the trained
commercial and industrial labor force and the favorable transportation
facilities have caused the economic base of the area to expand by attracting
to the area many national and international firms doing business in Latin
America. In Greater Miami, over 100 international corporations have set up
hemispheric operations. Among them are such corporations as Dow Chemical,
Gulf Oil Corporation, Owens-Corning Fiberglas Corporation, American Hospital

The Industrial Development Authority (IDA) of Dade County reports that
approximately two-thirds of Greater Miami's industrial firms own their
facilities. There are currently 37 industrial parks in Greater Miami.

Resolution No. 90-871
Community Redevelopment
Revenue Bonds, Series 1990
On November 8, 1990 the City Commission passed and adopted
Resolution No. 90-871 authorizing the issuance of Community
Redevelopment Revenue Bonds, Series 1990. Inadvertently, a draft
of said Resolution, rather than the final version was executed.
Upon being notified of the discrepancies between the two
documents, this office contacted the City's bond counsel (Holland
& Knight/Barnes, Darby & McGhee) for a legal opinion as to the
significance, if any, of the changes that were made in the final
version and whether it was necessary for the City Commission to
take formal action.
According to bond counsel, the changes were not of a
substantial nature to require formal action by the City
Commission. This office concurs with that opinion.
Enclosed herewith are the following documents:
1. Legal Opinion from Barnes, Darby & McGhee dated
April 13, 1991.
2. A marked -up version of the executed Resolution
reflecting the changes.
3. A revised set of the pages that were changed.
4. A revised version of the Resolution with attachments.
It would be appreciated if you would assist in getting the
final version of the Resolution executed.:
Thank you for your cooperation.

Re: City of Miami, Florida
Community Redevelopment Revenue Bonds, Series 1990
Dear Linda:
I am enclosing copies of two Federal Express receipts of : (1)
package sent from Barnes, Darby & McGhee to Beverly Johnson and
received on 11/01/90 and (2) package sent from Barnes, Darby &
McGhee to Beverly Solomon at the same address and received on
11/05/90. It is apparent given the identical addresses and similar
names that the intended recipient in both cases is the same person,
the surname having been erroneously transcribed by Federal Express.
The package received on 11/05/90 contained the changed pages to the
resolution. Apparently due to a clerical foul-up the changed pages
were not inserted before submission to the City Commission. Thus
the resolution as passed by the City Commission was not in final
form.
Pursuant to our discussion I have reviewed the resolution
filed with the City Clerk and compared the same with the resolution
in our files. I have enclosed a mark-up of the filed version with
changes reflecting any variation from our model as well as a few
minor typos. In addition I have enclosed a revised version
90— 8"71
3tF
BARNES. DARBY & McGHEE
reflecting all the marked changes as well as a set consisting of
the changed pages only. Based on my review, the changes are not of
a substantial nature to merit a formal review by the City Clerk or
require formal action by the Board; a substitution of the changed
pages is all that is necessary.
Please call if you have further questionplor comments.

payment of the principal of and interest on his Bond or Bonds at

SECTION 27. PRO RATA APPLICATION OF FUNDS.
Anything in this resolution to the contrary notwithstanding, if
at any time the Pledged Revenues shall not be sufficient to pay
the principal of or the interest on the Bonds, as the case may
be, as the same become due and payable (either by their terms or
by acceleration of maturities), such funds, together with any
funds then available or thereafter becoming available for such
purpose, whether through the exercise of the remedies provided
for in this resolution or otherwise, shall, after payment of all
reasonable fees of Trustee, Paying Agent, Bond Registrar and
Authenticating Agent, be applied as follows:
(a) Unless the principal of all the Bands
shall have become due and payable, all such funds shall
be applied (1) first, to the payment of all installments
of interest then due, in the order of the maturity of
the installments of such interest, to the persons
entitled thereto, ratably, without any discrimination or
preference, and (2) then, to the payment of all
installments into the Interest Account and.then into the
Principal Account or, Redemption Account in the Sinking
Fund, in the order of the requirement for the deposit of
such installments, or ratably if in the same order of
payment, without discrimination or preference.
(b) If the principal of all the Bonds shall have
become due and payable, all such funds shall be applied
to the payment of the principal and interest then due
and unpaid upon the Bonds, without preference or
priority of principal over interest or of interest over
principal, or of any installment of interest over any
installment of interest, or of any Bond over any other
Bond, ratably, according to the amounts due,
respectively, for principal and interest, to the persons
entitled thereto without any discrimination or
preference except as to any difference in the respective
rates of interest specified in the Bonds.
(c) If the principal of all such Bonds shall
have been declared due and payable and if such
declaration shall thereafter have been rescinded and
annulled under the provisions of Section 24 above, then,
subject to the provisions of paragraph (b) of this
Section in the event that the principal of all such
Bonds shall later become due and payable or be declared
due and payable, the funds remaining in and thereafter
accruing to the Sinking Fund or the Reserve Fund shall
be applied in accordance with the provisions of
paragraph (a) of this Section.
38
J O --- 871
Whenever funds are to be applied pursuant to the
provisions of this Section, such funds shall be applied at such
times, and from time to time, as the Issuer or the Trustee, as
the case may be, in its sole discretion shall determine, having
due regard to the amount of such funds available for application
and the likelihood of additional funds becoming available for
such application in the future; the setting aside of such funds,
in trust for the proper purpose, shall constitute proper
application of such funds. Whenever such discretion in applying
such funds shall be exercised., the date (which shall be an
interest payment date unless another date more suitable shall be
fixed) upon which such application is to be made shall be fixed
by the Issuer or the Trustee and upon such date interest on the
amounts of principal to be paid on such date shall cease to
accrue. Such notice as shall be deemed to be appropriate of the
fixing of any such date shall be given. No payment to the owner
of any Bond shall be required unless such Bond shall be presented
to the Trustee or to the Issuer, as the case may be, for
appropriate endorsement or for cancellation if fully paid.
