Further authorizing the City Manager to execute an Agreement with said individual for the purpose of providing development consultant and construction supervision services to the City's Housing Conservation and Development Agency, in connection with the implementation of several new housing programs and projects which are being administered by the Housing Agency. BACKGROUND: The Housing Conservation and Development Agency recommends ratification of the attached resolution, waiving by a 4/5th affirmative vote of the City Commission, the requirements and prohibition contained in the City Code Section 2-302, in connection with the retention of Jose Fabregas, former City employee, as an independent contractor with the City of Miami. Further authorizing the City Manager to execute an Agreement with said individual for the purpose of providing development consultant and construction supervision services to the City's Housing Conservation and Development Agency, in connection with the implementation of several new housing programs and projects which are being administered by the Housing Agency. On July 5, 1989, Jose Fabregas, General Contractor, resigned his position as Housing Development Coordinator with the City's Housing Conservation and Development Agency. While serving in the above mentioned capacity, Mr. Fabregas functioned as Project Manager for several new housing programs and projects which are being implemented and/or coordinated by the City's Housing Conservation and Development Agency. These include the City sponsored Scattered Site Affordable Homeownership Development Program, Residential Plaza at Blue Lagoon project (U.S. HUD assisted), the St. Hugh Oaks and Melrose Nursery Housing Projects, as well as other public -private housing initiatives currently in the pre -development planning phase. /��"' 5 "% ftetolution Authotiting City Manager to tkteute Agreement for professional services Page =2- presently, there does not exist appropriate staff in the Department with technical expertise in the area of housing development and construction supervision which would allow for such functions and duties to be assumed by other members of the Housing Agency staff• It is further anticipated that the retention of Jose Fabregas, as an independent contractor would be a more efficient and invaluable measure to maintain continuity with the implementation and administration of several new housing projects currently under construction and/or planned for construction within the next 3-6 months. Moreover, it is also anticipated that approximately $31,000 in salary and fringe benefits savings will be realized by the City during Fiscal Year 1989-90 should the position previously held by the former employee remain vacant. $20,000 has been determined as compensation for providing said services to the City for a one (1) year period. Funding to defray the cost of providing said services to the City will be made available from Capital Improvement Project No. 321034 "Scattered Site Affordable Housing Development Program."
