tI. OVERVIEW
A. Project Summary
On October 29, ' 1986, the City of Miami ("City") and the United
States of America, acting by and through General Services
Administration ("GSA"), entered into a "Memorandum of
Understanding" expressing their intent to enter into negotiations
for the City to construct and lease to GSA a building to house
the U.S. Attorney's Office and other U.S. Law Enforcement
Agencies in Miami. Public Law 99-591 was passed by Congress
authorizing GSA to lease a building in Miami not to exceed
250,000 sq.ft. acquired or constructed by the City.
On July 23, 1987, the City Commission adopted Resolution 87-746
authorizing the City Manager to execute a negotiated "Lease
Agreement" (included as Exhibit 1) between the City and GSA
setting forth the terms and conditions for the City to construct
and lease to GSA an approximately 250,000 sq.ft. building for a
period not to exceed thirty years with renewal options by GSA.
On October 22, 1987, the City Commission adopted Resolution 87-
916 declaring that the most advantageous method for the City to
construct a building for subsequent lease to GSA is by
procurement of an integrated package from the private sector that
includes site acquisition of a specified 12-lot land parcel in
downtown Miami, planning and design, and construction. Resolution
87-916 further authorized the preparation of a Request for
Proposals.
The property identified by GSA and the City as the project site
is today in private ownership. The successful proposer, selected
from among pre -qualified development teams, shall be responsible
for site acquisition at a price not to exceed the guaranteed
purchase price agreed to by the City and GSA with the property
owners through agreements of purchase and sale. The successful
proposer shall take title to the property and construct only
those improvements authorized by the City and GSA under a turnkey
development agreement with the City of Miami. Upon completion of
construction of the building and all associated improvements, the
City shall take title to the property through purchase from the
successful proposer at a pre -negotiated price. Subsequently, the
City shall lease the building to the U.S. General Services
Administration.
On Ma rch 10, 1988, the City Commission adopted Resolution
88-232 authorizing the issuance of a Request for Qualifications
as a pre -qualifying procedure prior to the issuance of a Request
for Proposals for land acquisition, planning and design, and
construction of a building in Miami to be occupied by U.S. Law
Enforcement Agencies. The Commission further selected an
independent certified public accounting firm to assist in
analyzing submission of financial qualifications,
directed the forthcoming Request for Proposals be brought before
the Commission prior to its issuance, and determined response be
.limited solely to development teams determined qualified in
accordance with all provisions of. this Request for
Qualifications.'
On May 12, 1988, the City Commission adopted Resolution 88-449
rejecting all submissions received April 15, 1988, in response to
an earlier Request for Qualifications issued by the City and GSA.
Respondents that submitted professional qualifications on April
15, 1988► are hereby noticed that no submissions received under
the prior process shall be considered as a submission as required
by this Request for Qualifications. Submissions due July 22,
1988, must meet all requirements specified herein.
On May 12, 1988, the Commission further passed Motion 88-450
clarifying its intent with regard to minimum minority
participation requirements (said language incorporated herein,
refer to Section 111.8.) and authorized the reissuance of a
Request for. Qualifications. On June 9, 1988, the City Commission
adopted Resolution 88- authorizing the issuance of this
Request for Qualifications on June 22, 1988. (Referenced
legislation is included as Appendix A.)
The City of Miami and GSA are hereby extending invitations to
qualified and experienced development teams to submit
professional qualifications, demonstrate financial capability,
present a viable financing strategy, and comply with minority
participation requirements for the development of an
approximately 250,000 sq.ft. Federal Law Enforcement Building
located on specified property to be acquired between NE 1st and
Miami Avenues and NE 4 and 5 Streets in Miami's central business
district, adjacent to the U.S. Post Office Courthouse and
Courthouse Annex.
Professional qualifications are sought to pre -qualify development
teams and must include the composition of the team, demonstrate
professional experience and capability in the required
disciplines, demonstrate financial capability to successfully
undertake and complete the project, present a viable financial
strategy, and comply with minority participation requirements.
Development teams determined by the City and GSA as qualified
shall be invited to participate in the Request for Proposals
selection process for design and development of a Federal Law
Enforcement Building.
Proposals shall be sought only from among pre -qualified teams for
procurement of an integrated package that shall include site
acquisition, planning and design, and construction of
improvements in accordance with all provisions of the Request for
Proposals document.

B. Development Objective
The development program for the assembled downtown property calls
for the City providing the United States of America suitable
office space tb securely house its U.S. Attorney's Office and
other Federal Law Enforcement Agencies at a reasonable lease rate
in an expeditious time period. The City, as facilitator, intends
to procure the improvements from the private sector at no profit
or expense to its taxpayers.
The development objective set forth by the City and GSA may be
achieved by acquisition of a specified land parcel and
construction of a 250,000 sq..ft. building appropriately sited on
the property to allow future expansion that functionally ties in
to the adjacent existing U.S. Post Office Courthouse and
Courthouse Annex forming a secure environment for its occupants.

specifications provided by GSA to be included in the Request for
Proposals document.

5th Streets in downtown Miami, as shown in Figure 3. "Project
Location Map." The twelve lots comprising the land parcel are

The successful proposer, upon execution of a turnkey development
agreement with the City, shall be responsible for completing the

P. Historic Preservation Considerations
GSA has
determined, and the City concurs, that construction of a
Federal
Law Enforcement Building on
the project site will
have an
effect
upon the adjacent U.S. Post
office Courthouse, a
property
listed
on the National Register of Historic Places,
and the
Central
Baptist Church, the Chail.le
Building, and the William
H.
Chaill.e
House, properties eligible
for listing on the
National
Register,
as shown in Figure 4.
"Historic Buildings
Location
Map."
Through consultation with the Florida State Historic Preservation
Officer and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, all
parties have agreed to implement measures to ensure that the
design of the Federal Law Enforcement Building shall be sensitive
to adjacent historic properties in exterior finish material,
scale, massing, and setting. Project designs submitted by pre -
qualified development teams in response to the Request for
Proposals shall be reviewed by the Florida State Historic
Preservation officer and shall be critically evaluated by a
Review Committee with respect to historic preservation concerns,
among other criteria. (Refer to "Memorandum of Agreement"
included herein as Exhibit 2.)
G. Commitment of Funds
1. Successful Proposer
The successful proposer, selected from among pre -qualified
development teams, is required to provide adequate capital to
finance the complete acquisition of the property designated as
the project site, the planning and design, and construction of
the Federal Law Enforcement Building. Qualifications submitted
in response to this Request for Qualifications shall state the
structure for financing and source of funding to successfully
carry out all aspects of the project. The viability of the
financing strategy will be assessed by an independent certified
public accounting firm as a part of the qualifying process and
will be critically evaluated as a part of the Request for
Proposals selection process.
The successful proposer shall provide funding to reimburse the
City for direct costs incurred in evaluating all submissions
received in response to the Request for Qualifications and the
Request for Proposals. Direct costs include, but are not limited
to, preparation costs, advertising, site survey, appraisal fees
($26,300) and the professional services cost of a certified
public accounting firm selected by the City Commission. Payment
is due from the successful proposer immediately upon execution of
a development agreement with the City.
