Honorable Mayor and Members bAtts W of the City Commission a'ol.r `� subAct. Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to execute an Amendment to the Development �i�oM: aE�EaENcEs Agreement for the Downtown D.I. Cesar W. Odio For City Commission Meeting City Manager ENCLOsUkEs: of September 8, 1987 Resolution Amendment RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an Amendment, in substantially the form attached, to the Development Agreement with the City of Miami, the City of Miami Downtown Development Authority and the State of Florida Department of Community Affairs, for the City of Miami Downtown D.R.I. BACKGROUND: The Department of Development recommends that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an Amendment, in substantially the form attached, to the Development Agreement with the City, the Downtown Development Authority (D.D.A..) and the State of Florida, Department of Community Affairs. On June 28, 1985 the City, D.D.A. and the Florida Department of Community Affairs entered into an agreement under which Bayside Specialty Center and Parking Garage would be developed, the City would proceed with the construction of the Amphitheater and overall Redevelopment of Bayfront Park, and the D.D.A. would file an Application for Development Approval for the City of Miami's Downtown D.R.I., pursuant to Section 380.06 (21) of the Florida Statutes. While the Application for Development Approval has been filed, Bayside Specialty Center and Parking Garage are open and construction of the Amphitheater and the Park are underway, the Agreement currently precludes operation of the Amphitheater prior to issuance of the Final Development Order. In that the process of issuing the Final Development Order is currently underway, but it is not yet in hand, this Amendment seeks to allow for operation of the Amphitheater for up to six months during which time it is anticipated that the Final Development Order will be issued. Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission Page two It is therefore recommended that this item be consi Berea at the City Commission Meeting of September 8, 1987.
