elimination Of Slums and blight is a matter of
state policy and State concern in order that
the state and its counties and municipalities
shall not continue to be endangered by areas
which are focal centers of diseaser promote
Juvenile delinquency, and consume an excessive
proportion of its revenues because of the extra
services required for police, fire, accident,
hospitalization, and other forms of public
protection, services, and facilities.
(2) It is further found and declared that
certain alums or blighted areas,, or portions
thereof, may require acquisition, clearance,
and disposition subject to use restrictions, as
provided in this part,, since the prevailing
condition of decay may make impracticable the
reclamation of the area by conservation or
rehabilitation; that other areas or portions
thereof may, through the means provided in this
part, be susceptible of conservation or
rehabilitation in such a manner that the
conditions and evils enumerated may be
eliminated, remedied, or prevented; and that

effective method of achieving such preservation
and enhancement in areas in which such tax base
is declining, that community redevelopment in
such areas, when complete, will enhance such
tax base and provide increased tax revenues to
all affected taxing authorities, increasing

their ability to accomplish their purposes; and
that the preservation and enhancement of the
tax base in such areas through tax increment
financing and the levying of taxes by such
taxing authorities therefor and the

appropriation of funds to a redevelopment trust
fund bears a substantial relation to the

purposes of such taxing and is for their

The Model City (Liberty City) Redevelopment Area is located in the
approximettely northeasterly ore -quarter of the neighborhood better kmm� an
Model City. The r+edevelopmetnt area is generally bomubdl by I-95 to the east.,
N.W. 12th Avenue to the westo. N.W. 54 Street to the south and N.W. 79 8tr str
or the northern city limits, to the north. (See location and legal
description attached as Exhibit "S").
Since the Miami. Comprehensive Neighborhood Plan 1989-2000 does not identify
"LSberty City" as one of it's neighborhoods, the baurdaries of this
redevelopment plan actually consist of portions of two distinct subareas
within the larger neighborhood which is better known as Model City. These
subareas are Edison Center and Icing Heights.
III. BACKGROM
The following is a brief description of each of the subareas which make up the
Liberty City Redevelopment Area:
A. Edison Center
Edison Center is the "Neighborhood Retail Center" of The Model City Area.
It is generally bounded by N.W. 68 Street, I-95, N.W. 58 Street and N.W. 12
Avenue. Edison Center has recently been identified in the Miami
' Gomp�reinensive Neighborhood Plan as an ecorxmically distressed area. Edison
Plaza, which is the primary shopping center of the area, was largely
destroyed during the civil disturbances in 1980 and has since been rdxdlt.
The primary issues facing Edison Center eras eoonromic disirriestmerit,
difficulties for small business development, extremely high insurance
premiums for area businesses clue to crime, unemployment., lack of
educational and career development programs, especially for youth, lack of
residential area maintenance and an increase in drug -related crimes.
The only recent caicmercial and residential in the area has cane
from the public sector. Both the City of !Miami and Dane County rerxiered
financial assistance to the Edison Plaza redevelopment through the Tacolcy
R=Kmi,c Development Corporation. Among the new development is a Winn Dixie
Stnpennarket and McDonalds restaurant. Recent residential. investment in the
area includes two main projects; one is the Edison Towers project and the
other is a 32 townhouse unit project targeted for single mothers. Edism
Towers was only made possible through a private investment that was a
direct result of a publicly sponsored program; and the townhouse project
was the result of a program which was sponsored by the urban league of
Cheater Miami.

King Heights ="tylyN.W.
a residentialneighbod ij within M del City. It
is generally 62 Street, 1-95, N.W. 54 Street ad N-W, 17
Avemal hov wer, for the puu:poses of this redevelopment effort, only the
eastern half is included.
The primary issues in this area include a lack of adequate and affordable
housing, a need to rehabilitate or redevelop substandard and 4st Ariorat d
housing sts ctures, erczuwading, crime, especially as it relates to the
use and trafficking of illegal drugs, and the demolition of crack hoes,
and the plight of families headed by a single parent.
The portion of the King Heights neighborhood within the Liberty City
Padermlopment Area has been the beneficiary of public investment for
several years. The City of Miami. and Dade County have been implementing the
scattered sites housing program in the area, and single family and
multifamily rehabilitation is encouraged through the City's on -going
rehabilitation program administered by the Department of Development and
Housing conservation. There has been little, if any, private itivest�dent
since 1980.

1. Amlysis
Ovwall population
The Liberty City Area showed an overall population► decrease of 26*4%
' between 1970 and 1980; in contrast, the City of Miami as a whole,
Y experienteed a 3.6$ increase during the same time period, lxsaenw, the
overall city increase included an additional SOONpersons that the
Co sus Bureau awarded as a result of the Menial boatlift. ring the
period from 1980 to 1990, the area was believed to have continued to
decrease in population, but at a reduced rate. The 1990 Census
results are not yet available.
Age Distribution
From 1970 to 1980, the age group with the most dramatic decrease was
persons under 18 years old; within Liberty City, this was a decrease
of 43.5%, while the City of Miami decrease was only 12.4%.
The only age group which dramatically increased was those persons 65
years and older; in Liberty City this demonstrated an increase of
66.1%, while the City of Miami showed only a 21.9% increase.
Ethnic Distribution
The ethnic make up of Liberty City also changed from 1970 to 1980.
In 1970, Liberty City was h+ane to 55 white peons, 6905 black
persons and 13 persons of other races; by 1980, the rnmiber of whites
decr®esed to 33 parsons (a decrease of 40%), the mzimr of blacks
decreased to 4939 parsons (a decrease of 28.5t), and the 1-1 k ar of
persons of other races increased to 19 persons (an increase of
46.2%). During this period, the total number of Hispanic pis also
deceased from 161 perms to 61 persons (a decrease of 62.1%). Thwe
changes are proportionate to the overall decrease in the atom
Population•
Mplayment and Income
During the period between 1970 and 1980, the total civilian laabor
force in Liberty City declined by 27.5%, whereas I the City of. Miami
saw an increase of 8.6%. The total comber of persons employed„ r
Liberty City also decreased by 30.6% while in the City of -Mimi, an
increase of 6.5% was reported.
Median income levels in Liberty City rose 58% and mean income levab
went up by 78% which is low when compared to an increase of 82.9% 3r
-A- 90-- 502
the median inure level of the City of Miami and a 99.6% i.nnuaw in
the meant family income. The actual mean fftily inww of fesel
headed households with children averaged $5968 in Liberty City, wU
below the WjOrty level, in 1980 and $8086 in the City of Miami.
figures an ektplcyment and inccm indicate that while the City
of Miami, as a whole, was experiencing a period of hitter MUVAt
and average increases in family income, the Liberty City anamas
experiencing a period of decline. HnployctreM levels were I*Mt aid
increases in family Income e ware less than average and irwufficlant
for area residwits to maintain their existing standard of living.
number of persons at or below the poverty level increased free► 1765
to 1850, representing an increase of apprdndwately 40% of the
population. These tLwds are believed to have continuer! during the
1980-1990 period.
Housing
The total number of year-round housing units in Liberty City
decreased by 12% between 1970 and 1980 while in the City of Miami, an
increase of 16.1% was reported. The total number of owner occupied
housing units in Liberty City decreased by 13.3% and the number
renter occupied units decreased by 14.4% while the number of vacant
units increased by 76.2%. Many of the vacant units are either
substandard, deteriorated and unsuitable to live in, or have been
converted into crack mouses and demolished since the 1980 census.
(Approximately 31 structures have been deamlished for this reason
since 1987 alone, and many more have been cited as vacant and
unsecured and will be demolished unless they became secured).
In contrast, the City of Miami, as a whole, had an increase in the
mmber of owner occupied units by 6%, an increase in the nusaber of
renter occupied units by 14.3% and an increase in the number of
vacant units by 143.9%. The increase in the number of vacant units is
not as significant citywide as it is in Liberty City, because there
was an overall increase in the number of units citywide, while in
Liberty City, there was an overall decrease in the number of units.
The value of owner occupied housing units in Liberty City increased
by 150.8% while the City of Miami reported an increase of 187%. Rent
also increased by 63.4 in Liberty City and 87% citywide.
The housing figures reported above indicate substantial decreases in
available housing for Liberty City residents; and when compared to
the figures on family incam levels, it is evident that riot only are
there not enough single family housing units suitable for living in
the area, but the cast of single fancily mousing is becoming
increasingly out of range for the average family. In Liberty City,
the value of owner occupied units went up by over 150% and rent was
up by over 63%, yet the mediae family inane increased by only 58%,
thus increasing the percentage of the family income that has to go
towards housing, and in some cases, making the housing unaffordable.
-5- 90- 502
During the period from 1980 to 1990 the tnxd er of single family t9litt
w" believed to have continued to decli na. From 1987 th ru May of 1990
alone,pprroxttnntsly 31 structures were derolished, sceae
houses, and others were vacant, unsecured structto
live in) which were ordered to be cla lisped by Metro -Dew rtty`s
Dwafe Structures Board. Many buildings in the area are still vWMt
and unsecured and will be demolished unless they are seed. This
trend is believed to continue into the 1990's unless public sector
intervention occurs.

1. &-toting Land Use (1990)
As demonstrated in the following maps e1tit1W *Zdatirg Land UWO
and "Dilapidated Structures, Vacant Land and &Wfaae PaddYQ* # the
Liberty City portion of Model City has scm extensive areas which are.
deteriorating.
Overall, the area has appro;dmately 18% of the stYucbvM (or
approxiv ately 300 out of 1700 structures) in deteriorating or
dilapidated condition*, and over 30% of the land is either vacant,
used for surface parking or contains dilapidated structures.
Approximately 70* of that is residentially zoned and 3O% is
=mteially zoned. As the maps demonstrate, theca are several areas
with higher concentrations of deterioration than others. These areas
seen to be primarily residential in nature (especially the public
housing project areas) and in the northern portions of the district.
#
The majority of the commercial areas which are deteeriorating are
located along N.W. 62 Street and N.W. 7th Avenue.
These adverse physical conditions add to the high level of distress
that the area is currently experiencing.

2. Neighborhood Problems and Needs
Housing
Although some improvements have been made in the recent past, the
j
Liberty City neighborhood continues to haws housing problems. These
problems include housing shortage, ovee payment, passible
overcrowding, and deterioration of the homing shock.
As the demographic tables and analysis show, the median family i.ncom
;j
of the area only went up 58%, while the value of homes went up 150%
and rent also increased by 63%. This indicates that the area has
experienced, a mulch higher increase in the cost of housing vs, the
i
increase in family income, therefore decreasing the chances of
hansownership for many area residents. This has resulted in an
outnigration of residents to more affordable areas of the county, or
into publicly subsidized housing.
{
*Nate that this data is from a 4 part rating system in which #1 is a
sound structure, #2 is a structure requiring minor repairs, #3 is a
j
deteriorating structure requiring major repairs, and #4 is structure
4
which is idated. The percentage used in this analysis
combination of uthe istor of structures which received rating of #3
and #4.

Single r'rmfly arenas
Over the past several years the Liberty City area has a ri,e"ned a
substantial decrease in single family residential uses with a
increase
in higher density residential us, iaity
multifamily developient (including public housing) . 7tre is an
aburrdance of vacant properties =led for residential (mid dial
uses. Threw properties provide adequate sties for infill
development, but only if the cost routine affordable.
Commercial Areas
There has been a continuous out -migration of business activity/ from
the area since the 1960's. The primary co nmercial area, the Edison
Business Center, was impacted by the 1980 civil disturbances. Since
that time the area has seen an increase in vacancies, deterioration
of cc, -rciat structures including poor maintenance and an overall
reduction in the buying power of area residents (this is due to the
decline in population). The only eco is redevelopment that has
taken place in the area has been the direct result of public
investment; and public sector assistance will have to continue if
this trend is to continue.
Infrastructure - Street Conditions
The City of Miami Public Works Dephas developed a sufficiency
rating system in order to rate street conditions citywide. A score of
81-100 means that the street conditions are good; a score of 71 to 80
is fair; a score of 61 to 70 is poor (meaning no drainage, poor
sidewalks and/or cracked asphalt); and a rating of 60 or below means
that the street is in critical condition, and immediate attention is
required.
Within the Liberty City Redevelopment Area there are quite a few
streets (especially north of N.W. 62 Street) which received
sufficiency ratings below 60. The average rating for the area
generally bounded by N.W. 12th Avenue on the west, N.W. 63 Street an
the south, N.W. 7th Avenue on the east and N.W. 71 Street on the
north, is 58.22. This indicates that the street north of N.W. 62
Street are in critical condition and must be rebuilt as soon► as
possible. The area from N.W. 62 Street to the south was recently
rebuilt and scomed sufficiency ratings in the mid-80's. The area
north of N.W. 62 Street must be brought up to this standard or the
neighborhood will continue to decline.
Parking
Parking needs in the Edison Center area should be further studied to
determine whetleat a parking problem exists due to recent .
The current parking situation, according to merchants in the area,
indicates that a problem does exist and may limit future draevelopnrent
if adequate parking is not provided in the near future.

Park havr� rsces�ttly received tmnies for heeded itnpalcrvaaaants;g aed.
? Hadley Park still requi,res same major itgzxwetssents.
The Miami, OmWehensive Neighborhood Plan 1989-2000 contains an
analysis of the City's park space (including deficiencies) by
neighborhoods. Since the Liberty City Redsvelcpsrant Area is not an
official neighborhood of the City of Miami, but rather a portion of
the Model City Neighborhood, this report will assume that the
findingsa for Model City are representative of the area which includes
the Liberty City Redevelopment Area.
The total Us the staresspace 4 4within the Model City area is 38.6
sq. ft. of mini -park space per
person, 21.8 sq. ft. of neighborhood park space per person, and 43.6
sq. ft. of c=msnity Park space per person, this indicates a
deficiency within the Model City area of 16.57 acres of park space
in the categories of Comn ity and Neighborhood Parks. (These
standards are lower than those used by Dads County, and there is
still a deficiency).
«Si7Ln
There is a need to expand day care centers in the Liberty City area.
In addition, there is a need for more after school programs
espracially for children of low income families.
Within the Liberty City Redevelopment Area, there are currently 9 Day
Care Centers, with approdmately 300-350 slots for pro -school
children; 5 of these centers reported that they are operating at
capacity, 2 are reporting same openings, and 2 would not say if they
were full or not. The 1980 census reports that the area has
approximately 570 children under the age of 5 years; and a total of
1691 children under the age of 18 years. The average cost for child
care ranges fr m $45 per week to $75 per week depending on the age of
the child and the operation of the center (one of the centers
operates on system where the oast is a sliding scale depending on the
family inname). These figures indicate that there may be a problem in
the amount and the affordability of child day care in the area,
especially in after -school program.
Other needs for children includes family home care for infants,
health care program. including dental care and nutritional training
programs for parents; and safety program.

Elderly Needs
}
The cost of housing is a critical problem for the elderly
population
in Liberty City. A large percentage of their (fixed) iitcxn►+asr is
alloortted for housing The demographic
payments. tables putwAded in
4
this repot show than the elderly population is incressing at a mid
rate while the housing stock is decreasing. The result is 1) inflated
housing prices for a segment of the population who can least afftd
it because they are an fixed incomes; and 2) a continual need for
rent subsidies. There is also a tremendous need for housing projects
specifically designed for the elderly; only one such facility has
i
been constructed in the area recently.
ri
Other needs of the elderly population area services for the homWxuid
including delivered meals and homemaker services; transportation,
s
health, recreation, and assistance in adequate rat planning.
Health and Welfare
Metro -Dais County is responsible for the public health and welfare
programs in the City of Mimi.. The Liberty City area health care
needs are served primarily by Jackson Memorial Hospital located
approximately 4 miles form the area. There are also other private
hospitals and clinics which serve the area. In addition, there are
nunnerous social service agencies in the neighborhood, most of them
are funded through the City of Miami oanmuni ty Development
Department. Cutbacks in social service program at the local, state
and federal levels will hgmct the adequate delivery of these
services to Liberty City residents.
Crime
Safety is a major concern in the Liberty City area. A crime study
conducted in 1984, which included the 8 CD target Areas, indicates
that the Model City Neighborhood was ranked* #3 out of 8 in reported,
breaking arid entering, #3 out of 8 in reported violent crimes, #3 out
of 8 in reported assaults, #2 out of 8 in reported rapes, and #3 out
of 8 in reported murders. lower rankings were reported in robberies
and non-violent crimes. These figures indicate that in mast types of
crime, the incidence of crime in Model City is above the City
(
More recent crime reports for the area indicate an increase in drug
i
related crimes. City Police officials along with code enforcement
officers have recently targeted the area for an intense Lana and code
enforcement sweep, especially where drugs are involved (i.e. crack
houses).
* Norte that in the ranking system which was used, #1 is the area
reporting most crimes, or the worst; and #8 is the area reporting the
least crimes, or the best.

already been made.
* Vehicular circulation and parking will need inprovemsnts if the
comatarcial areas are to expand.
* Crime will slightly decrease due to the eld construction of a
police sub -station on N.W. 62 Street which will add police preeeexse
to the neighborhood, and also due to recent police sponsored program
which target the area for elimination, or at least a r9&=tjon, of
drugs and dug related crimes.
* Child Care will remain a problem, unless, public sector support is

older children, as well as quality, affordable care to the younger
children.
These negative trends can only be reversed through dramatic public
intervention which seeks to completely change the physical, conditions
and social environment of the area.
