FLORIDA INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM TO: The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission FROM! Cesar H. Odio �1 City Manager- J RECOMMENDATION: DATE: DEC r e 1986 RILE: E SUBJECT: Contract Continuation with Allapattah Business Development Authority & Wynwood Community Economic Development Corporation• REFERENCES: ENCLOSURES: It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution authorizing the execution of an amendment, in substantially the form attached hereto, to the Twelfth (12th) Year Community -Based Organization agreements between Allapattah Business Development Authority, Inc., Wynwood Community Economic Development Corporation and the City of Miami for the purpose of extending the contract period another six (6) months to June 30, 1987 and providing an additional twenty five thousand dollars ($25,000) from the Twelfth (12th) Year Community Development Block Grant Funds. BACKGROUND: The Department of Community Development has analyzed the need to execute the attached amendments to the existing City agreements with both the Allapattah Business Development Authority and Wynwood Community Economic Development Corporation. On June 12, 1986, the City Commission passed Resolution No. 86- 463 Authorizing the City Manager to enter into agreements with eleven (11) neighborhood economic development/community-based organization's (CBO's). Seven CBO's were to be funded for a one year period at fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) each. Four of the eleven (11) CBO's were to be funded at a level of twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) for a six (6) month period on a probationary status. The Allapattah Business Development Authority (ABDA) and Wynwood Community Economic Development Corporation are two agencies currently under contract and on probation. The probationary status of six (6) months from July 1, to December 31, 1986 for both ABDA and WCEDC, was recommended based on the agency's unsatisfactory performance with its 1985-86 City agreement. Subsequently, the work performance of the two organizations during this period has been evaluated and determined to be satisfactory. In addition, the Department of Community Development received satisfactory audits in July, 1986 for the prior year contract of both agencies. 86-991 . t N The Honorable of the City Page 2 Mayor and Members Commission Within the six (6) months probationary period, ABDA has worked to implement the City's Commercial Facade Program, was instrumental in establishing the Allapattah Parking Advisory Committee of the Off -Street Parking Authority, increased the membership of the Allapattah Chamber of Commerce and organized, cosponsored and produced the first annual Fair of Allapattah held on November 8, 1986 at Curtis Park. WCEDC has also worked to implement the City's Commercial Facade Program involving over twenty (20) local business in the neighborhood. The agency helped reorganize the Biscayne Wynwood Chamber of Commerce and established a new social club of Puerto Rician City of Miami Police Officers, which helps create a police presence in the neighborhood. In addition, WCEDC has submitted a proposal for the purchase of a small building for the purpose of creating a Wynwood Neighborhood Business Center to provide services to area businesses. This proposal is still under review. Based on the foregoing, additional funding and a contract extension is recommended.
