RECOMMENDATION It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached Resolution declaring that the most advantageous method to develop certain improvements on properties owned by the City is by a Unified Development Project (UDP), -authorizing the City Manager to prepare a draft Request for Proposals (RFP) for a UDP, and setting a public hearing for May 10, 1990 at 2:30 P.M. to take testimony regarding a Unified Development RFP for the development of mixed residential/commercial uses of City Block No. 55 bounded by NW 6th Street, NW 7th Street, NW 2nd Avenue and NW 3rd Avenue (Miami A.L. Knowlton Block 55N), Block No. 56 bounded by NW 6th Street, NW 7th Street, NW 1st Court and NW 2nd Avenue (Miami. A.L.

Knowlton Block 45N); to authorize the issuance of an RFP; and to select a certified public accounting firm and appoint members of a review committee to evaluate proposals and report findings to the City Manager as required by the City Charter and Code. BACKGROUND: The Department of Development & Housing Conservation recommends the City Commission declare that the most advantageous method for the development of improvements on the S.E. Overtown/Park West Blocks 45, 55, 56 is by the Unified Development Project (UDP) process. The City of Miami Charter Section 29-A(c), providing comprehensive procurement procedures, allows for "Unified Development Projects", defined as projects where real property acquired or to be acquired by the City -is to be used for developing improvements. The City Commission makes a determination that it is most advantageous to the City to procure from a private entity an integrated development package which may include planning and design, construction, leasing and management. E�? 3 0 Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission Page: 2 Section 29-A(c) further requires that a Request for Proposals for a Unified Development Project will: - generally define the uses the City is seeking for the project; - specify the land parcel to be made available; - specify the extent of the City's proposed commitment of funds, property and services; - specify evaluation criteria for a review committee and a certified public accounting firm; and - define terms that would cause termination of the development agreement. The above referenced blocks were previously declared as UDP projects by the City Commission as part of the S.E. Overtown/Park West Phase I development, and the development rights to all three blocks were given to the Odessa, Ltd. Despite numerous attempts, the developer could not come up with the necessary financing to initiate the proposed project. Finally, after extending the construction deadline on several occasions, the City Commission, by Resolution 90-126, on February 7, 1990, terminated the lease and development agreement with the Odessa, Ltd. for Block 55 and rescinded all development rights to Blocks 45, 55, and 56.
