FACT SHEET
WHO WE ARE:
Encouraging Dreamers Breaking Barriers, LLC, was established in 2017. We are a for profit organization
currently located at 1490 NW 3rd Avenue, Suite 106, Miami, Florida 33136. This organization is founded
on removing barriers encountered among youth and young adults between the ages 14-25 living in the City
of Miami including SEOPW Redevelopment area. Our mission is to provide mentorship while uniting the
diverse cultures in underprivileged communities by exposing our participants to entrepreneurship
opportunities while educating them in life skill trainings and promoting successful ways for maturing from
an adolescent to a young adult.
WHAT WE DO:
We offer participation in our paid on the job training followed by job opportunities as well as
entrepreneurial opportunities for residents between the ages of 14-25, living in underprivileged
communities within the City of Miami and SEOPW Redevelopment area. Our most current on the job paid
training and job placement opportunities are offered through our All -Star Youth Escape Carwash Detail
Service, launched in August of 2021, amid the pandemic. Our carwash initiative has been successful in
improving the quality of life for our fifteen (15) participants by assuring job placement after completion of
their job training in which all participants are paid $15 per hour. Our mobile car wash pop -ups have also
allowed our participants to provide services at many community events and businesses within the City of
Miami and the SEOPW Redevelopment area.
WHAT WE NEED:
We are pleased to submit this proposal for services to support our desire to build a relationship with the
City of Miami SEOPW CRA; and work in conjunction with the city achieving its redevelopment goals by
supporting a local standard car washing project. This project will enhance City of Miami residents by
providing jobs and a service within the local community, while improving the quality of life and promoting
entrepreneurship and technology innovations to its participants. In order to keep this effort ongoing, we are
seeking your monetary support in the amount of Seventy -Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00), to be used
to fund our car wash/mentorship initiative expenses. With your sponsorship we will be able to reach 10 to
15 youth/young people living within the City of Miami including the SEOPW Redevelopment area.

Our goal is to give the youth of today an opportunity to learn all the tools needed in becoming a successful
business owner and a productive citizen. We realize not all youth are suited for college after graduating
from high school. However, all youth can become productive citizens' by earning and learning. With your
financial assistance this opportunity will continue to create jobs for our youth and give them a responsibility
geared towards earning an honest living. It will promote self-worth and reduce the chances of our
participants from engaging in unproductive activities. I truly believe initiatives such as this is a necessity
throughout our unprivileged neighborhoods/ communities which ultimately empower our youth to become
self-sufficient productive citizens. The requested funds will be allocated as follows:
PROPOSED BUDGET OF SEOPW CRA FUNDS:

PRIOR YEAR PROJECT SUCCESS STORIES:
SUCCESS STORY NO. 1
Our first success story was finding my father Randy Hudnell. One day God asked me "how can I save the
world and forget about my own. With that though in mind I found my father who was homeless and on drugs
at the time. It was a challenge looking past him being an absent parent but with God's permission I was able
to forgive my father for his shortfall and offer him a life changing opportunity through employment with
Encouraging Dreamer's Breaking Barriers Allstars Detailing Service. Mr. Hudnell, now has a stable job as a
car tech specialist/record keeper, he has his own place and is no longer homeless. Our next mission is to
assist him with his dream of opening his own business of selling nutritious and delicious organic and natural
food and drinks. — ljamyn Gray, CEO of Encouraging Dreamers Breaking Barriers, LLC
SUCCESS STORY NO. 2
The second success story is helping groom and mentor Antiwone Johnson, who has been a part of
Encouraging Dreamer's Breaking Barriers Allstars Detailing Service from its start. His dream is to someday
own his own security company. As a result of shadowing the owner of EDBB, Antiwone has learned the tools
needed to operate and manage his own business. He is now the proud owner of A3 Security Services, LLC,
which is another service provided under the EDBB umbrella.
— Ijamyn Gray, CEO of Encouraging Dreamers Breaking Barriers, LLC
SUCCESS STORY NO. 3
Our third success story was the hiring of a young man name Robert Whittle. He was featured on a
documentary — Behind the Bars in Miami, where he was in Bootcamp after serving 51/2 years in prison. He
was released in June of 2021, and since his release from prison he has been employed by Encouraging
Dreamer's Breaking Barriers Allstars Detailing Service. As a result he now has a stable source of income,
has opened a bank account and has transformed his mind into being a model citizen and employee.
— Ijamyn Gray, CEO of Encouraging Dreamers Breaking Barriers, LLC
SUCCESS STORY NO. 4
The fourth success story is the hiring of over 20 youth from different communities and creating a safe haven
through our carwash youth escape initiative. These youth are learning the true meaning of "One Brother
One Hood". Each day they realize that this carwash is a life changing opportunity where we wash away our
past while waxing into a brighter future

own his own security company. As a result of shadowing the owner of EDBB, Antiwone has learned the tools
needed to operate and manage his own business. He is now the proud owner of A3 Security Services, LLC,
which is another service provided under the EDBB umbrella.

SUCCESS STORY NO. 3
Our third success story was the hiring of a young man name Robert Whittle. He was featured on a
documentary — Behind the Bars in Miami, where he was in Bootcamp after serving 51/2 years in prison. He
was released in June of 2021, and since his release from prison he has been employed by Encouraging
Dreamer's Breaking Barriers Allstars Detailing Service. As a result he now has a stable source of income,
has opened a bank account, and has transformed his mind into being a model citizen and employee.

SUCCESS STORY NO. 4
The fourth success story is the hiring of over 20 youth from different communities and creating a safe haven
through our carwash youth escape initiative. These youth are learning the true meaning of "One Brother
One Hood". Each day they realize that this carwash is a life changing opportunity where we wash away our
past while waxing into a brighter future

4.1.c
1. RECITALS. The Recitals to this Agreement are true and correct and are incorporated herein by

terminate upon the earlier of six (6) months after the Effective Date, or when the grant funds of Seventy -Five
Thousand Dollars and Zero Cents ($75,000.00), are expended, whichever occurs first. However, the following
rights of the SEOPW CRA shall survive the expiration or early termination of this Agreement: to audit or inspect;
to require reversion of assets; to enforce representations, warranties, and certifications; to exercise entitlement to
remedies, limitation of liability, indemnification, and recovery of fees and costs.
5. DISBURSEMENT OF GRANT.
a. GENERALLY. Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, the

incurred during the Term of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, "supporting documentation" may
include invoices, receipts, photographs, and any other materials evidencing the expense incurred. Grantee agrees

expenditures not approved by the SEOPW CRA.

to Grantee as a reimbursement for any Project -specific expenditure paid in cash. Grantee acknowledges that a cash

Grantee or Grantee's vendors for services not performed or for goods, materials, or equipment which have not been
delivered to Grantee for use in connection with the Project.

to be, caused in whole or part (whether joint, concurrent or contributing) by any act, omission, default, breach, or

5. DISBURSEMENT OF GRANT.
a. GENERALLY. Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, the
SEOPW CRA shall make available to Grantee up to Eighty -Seven Thousand Four Hundred Forty -Four Dollars and
No Cents ($87,444.00). In no event shall payments to Grantee, under this Agreement, exceed Eighty -Seven
Thousand Four Hundred Forty -Four Dollars and No Cents ($87,444.00). Payments shall be made to Grantee on a
reimbursement basis or directly to vendors on behalf of Grantee, only after the SEOPW CRA has received and
approved requests for disbursement in accordance with the SEOPW CRA and Grantee approved Scope of Work
and Project Budget.
b. PRE -APPROVAL OF EXPENSES. Grantee agrees to submit to the SEOPW CRA all
requests for the expenditure of Grant funds for pre -approval by the SEOPW CRA. Failure to submit said requests
prior to incurring expenses may result in the Grantee bearing the costs incurred. The SEOPW CRA shall review
said requests to ensure that the expense sought to be incurred by the Grantee is an expense within the Scope of
Work and Project, and the SEOPW CRA reserves the right to deny any and all requests it deems to be outside of
the Scope of Work and Project Budget.
c. REQUESTS FOR DISBURSEMENT OF GRANT. All requests for the disbursement of
Grant funds by the Grantee shall be certified by the Grantee's authorized representative. All requests for
disbursement of Grant funds must be in writing and must be accompanied by supporting documents reflecting the
use of Grant funds and/or expenditures incurred, and that said request is being made in accordance with the Project
Budget and for expenditures incurred during the Term of this Agreement, as reflected in Exhibit "C". For purposes
of this Agreement, "supporting documentation" may include invoices, receipts, photographs, and any other
materials evidencing the expense incurred. The Grantee agrees that all invoices or receipts reflecting the expenses
incurred in connection to the Project shall be in the name of the Grantee, and not in the name of the SEOPW CRA
in light of the Grantee's inability to bind the SEOPW CRA to any legal and/or monetary obligation whatsoever.
The SEOPW CRA retains the right to request additional supporting documentation, or additional explanation for
any and all expenses incurred by the Grantee. Grantee's failure to provide additional supporting documentation or
additional explanation regarding expenses incurred shall serve as grounds for immediate termination of this
Agreement, and the Grantee shall bear the costs associated with any expenditures not approved by the SEOPW
CRA prior to the date of termination. The Grantee understands and acknowledges that the SEOPW CRA shall not
disburse Grant funds for any expense that has not been previously approved by the SEOPW CRA in accordance
with Section 5(b) above, and that such expenses shall be borne solely by the Grantee.
d. CASH TRANSACTIONS PROHIBITED. The parties agree that no payment will be made
to the Grantee as reimbursement for any Project -specific expenditure paid in cash. Grantee acknowledges that a
cash transaction is insufficient per se to comply with record -keeping requirements under this Agreement.
e. NO ADVANCE PAYMENTS. The SEOPW CRA shall not make advance payments to
the Grantee or Grantee's vendors for services not performed or for goods, materials, or equipment which have not
been delivered to the Grantee for use in connection with the Project.
f. RETAINAGE. The SEOPW CRA shall retain ten (10) percent of all invoice amounts and

c. REPORT REQUIREMENTS. The Grantee shall be required to submit to the Executive
Director monthly reports detailing evidence of compliance with the subcontractor participation requirement and

information as the Executive Director may reasonably require for the Executive Director to determine whether the
Grantee is in compliance with the subcontractor participation requirement and the laborer participation
requirement.
d. DISPUTES. In the event of any disputes between the Executive Director and Grantee as
to whether any subcontractor has its principal place of business in the City of Miami or whether a laborer resides
in the City of Miami, and whether the Grantee has complied with the priority requirements, the Executive Director
and Grantee shall proceed in good faith to resolve the dispute. In the event the dispute is not resolved within ten
(10) days, either party may submit the dispute to the SEOPW CRA Board of Commissioners for resolution. The
decision of the SEOPW CRA Board of Commissioners shall be binding on the parties.
7. COMPLIANCE WITH POLICIES AND PROCEDURES. The Grantee understands that the use
of the Grant is subject to specific reporting, record keeping, administrative, and contracting guidelines and other
requirements affecting the SEOPW CRA's activities in issuing the Grant. SEOPW CRA agrees to provide notice
of said guidelines and other requirements to Grantee in advance of requiring compliance with same. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Grantee represents and warrants that it will comply, and the Grant will
be used in accordance with all applicable federal, state, and local codes, laws, rules, and regulations.

in part, by any act, omission, default, professional errors or omissions, or negligence (whether active or passive) of
the Grantee or its employees, agents, or subcontractors (collectively referred to as "Grantee"), regardless of whether
it is, or is alleged to be, caused in whole or part (whether joint, concurrent, or contributing) by any act, omission,
default, breach, or negligence (whether active or passive) of the SEOPW CRA, unless such injuries or damages are
ultimately proven to be the result of grossly negligent or willful acts or omissions on the part of the SEOPW CRA;
or (ii) the failures of the Grantee to comply with any of the paragraphs provisions herein; or (iii) the failure of the
Grantee, to conform to statutes, ordinances, or other regulations, or requirements of any governmental authority,

duplicate copies of the policies of such insurance with the SEOPW CRA. Grantee shall require all contractors and
subcontractors to comply with the requirements set forth in Exhibit D and further list the City and SEOPW CRA

3. USE OF GRANT. The Grant shall be used to underwrite construction costs associated with the
Project more particularly described in the Scope of Work for the Project and the Project Budget attached hereto as
Exhibit "B" and Exhibit "C" respectively (collectively, the "Scope of Work and Project Budget"), and
incorporated herein, which have been approved by the SEOPW CRA and the Grantee.
4. TERM. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date written above and shall
terminate upon the earlier of one (1) year, full disbursement of One Hundred Thirty -Nine Thousand Two Hundred
Twenty -Seven Dollars and Zero Cents ($139,227.00), or earlier as provided for herein; provided, however, that the
following rights of the SEOPW CRA shall survive the expiration or early termination of this Agreement: to audit
or inspect; to require reversion of assets; to enforce representations, warranties, and certifications; to exercise
entitlement to remedies, limitation of liability, indemnification, and recovery of fees and costs.
5. DISBURSEMENT OF GRANT.
a. GENERALLY. Subject to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, the
SEOPW CRA shall make available to Grantee up to One Hundred Thirty -Nine Thousand Two Hundred Twenty -
Seven Dollars and Zero Cents ($139,227.00). In no event shall payments to Grantee, under this Agreement, exceed
One Hundred Thirty -Nine Thousand Two Hundred Twenty -Seven Dollars and Zero Cents ($139,227.00).
Payments shall be made to Grantee on a reimbursement basis or directly to vendors on behalf of Grantee, only after
the SEOPW CRA has received and approved requests for disbursement in accordance with the SEOPW CRA and
Grantee approved Scope of Work and Project Budget.
b. PRE -APPROVAL OF EXPENSES. Grantee agrees to submit to the SEOPW CRA all
requests for the expenditure of Grant funds for pre -approval by the SEOPW CRA. Failure to submit said requests
prior to incurring expenses may result in the Grantee bearing the costs incurred. The SEOPW CRA shall review
said requests to ensure that the expense sought to be incurred by the Grantee is an expense within the Scope of
Work and Project, and the SEOPW CRA reserves the right to deny any and all requests it deems to be outside of
the Scope of Work and Project Budget.
c. REQUESTS FOR DISBURSEMENT OF GRANT. All requests for the disbursement of
Grant funds by the Grantee shall be certified by the Grantee's authorized representative. All requests for
disbursement of Grant funds must be in writing and must be accompanied by supporting documents reflecting the
use of Grant funds and/or expenditures incurred, and that said request is being made in accordance with the Project
Budget and for expenditures incurred during the Term of this Agreement, as reflected in Exhibit "C". For purposes
of this Agreement, "supporting documentation" may include invoices, receipts, photographs, and any other
materials evidencing the expense incurred. The Grantee agrees that all invoices or receipts reflecting the expenses
incurred in connection to the Project shall be in the name of the Grantee, and not in the name of the SEOPW CRA
in light of the Grantee's inability to bind the SEOPW CRA to any legal and/or monetary obligation whatsoever.
The SEOPW CRA retains the right to request additional supporting documentation, or additional explanation for
any and all expenses incurred by the Grantee. Grantee's failure to provide additional supporting documentation or
additional explanation regarding expenses incurred shall serve as grounds for immediate termination of this
Agreement, and the Grantee shall bear the costs associated with any expenditures not approved by the SEOPW
CRA prior to the date of termination. The Grantee understands and acknowledges that the SEOPW CRA shall not
disburse Grant funds for any expense that has not been previously approved by the SEOPW CRA in accordance
with Section 5(b) above, and that such expenses shall be borne solely by the Grantee.
d. CASH TRANSACTIONS PROHIBITED. The parties agree that no payment will be made
to the Grantee as reimbursement for any Project -specific expenditure paid in cash. Grantee acknowledges that a
cash transaction is insufficient per se to comply with record -keeping requirements under this Agreement.

requirement.

the Grantee or its employees, agents, or subcontractors (collectively referred to as "Grantee"), regardless of whether
it is, or is alleged to be, caused in whole or part (whether joint, concurrent, or contributing) by any act, omission,

of Services hereunder, provided, however, that Grantee shall at any time upon request by SEOPW CRA file
duplicate copies of the policies of such insurance with the SEOPW CRA. Grantee shall require all contractors and
subcontractors to comply with the requirements set forth in Exhibit D and further list the City and SEOPW CRA

require the provision by Grantee of an amount of coverage different from the amounts or kind previously required
and shall afford written notice of such change in requirements thirty (30) days prior to the date on which the

BACKGROUND:
A Resolution of the Board of Commissioners of the Southeast Overtown/Park West Community
Redevelopment Agency ("SEOPW CRA") by a four -fifths (4/5ths) affirmative vote, after an advertised
public hearing, ratifying, approving, and confirming the Executive Director's recommendation and
finding that competitive negotiation methods and procedures are not practicable or advantageous pursuant
to sections 18-85 and 18-86 of the code of the City of Miami, Florida, as amended, as adopted by the
SEOPW CRA; waiving the requirements for competitive sealed bidding as not being practicable or
advantageous to the SEOPW CRA; authorizing the allocation of funds to Poinciana Village
Condominium Association, Inc. ("Poinciana Village"), in an amount not to exceed $500,000.00 ("Funds")
for elevator modernization, concrete restoration, and exterior building painting to Poinciana Village
located at 201 and 269 N.W. 7th Street, Miami, Florida 33136 (the "Property").
Built in phases during the 1980's and 1990's for the purpose of inspiring homeownership, wealth building
and stimulating economic development in a challenged community, Poinciana Village is a condominium
complex consisting of 64, two and three -bedroom units. Poinciana Village represents one of the few
communities in the Redevelopment Area for homeowners, many of which have owned and resided in
their units since its development. Poinciana needs several costly improvements including roof
replacement, 25-year elevator modernization/replacement, concrete restoration, mailbox replacement, and
exterior painting. Poinciana Village has initiated the process to secure a private loan for funding to cover
costs on some of these items but is requesting assistance from the SEOPW CRA for the elevator work and
exterior concrete repairs and painting. The requested funding of $500,000.00 from the SEOPW CRA is
part of a larger Poinciana Village project which totals over $1,385,000.00.

To Director of Southeast Over -Town Park West Community Redevelopment Agency:
As President of Poinciana Village Condominium Association, I would like to thank you
and your Staff for graciously accepting the meeting with us this past January 4th, 2023 and
heard our concerns.
As you know this Association is located at 201 and 269 NW 7 Street, Poinciana Village
Condominium an it was established in 1988 and is one of the oldest homesteads in Historic
Over -town. Per presented reports the buildings have weathered 34 years standing central to
construction occurring all around them, and now, is in dire need of structural, protective and
decorative uplift with the following projects:
1. Building Painting (3 buildings)
2. Elevators Modernization (2)
For that reason, we would like to express our joy and gratitude for your contribution
towards these projects that will be in an amount not to exceed the $500,000.00.
The association fees are currently $438.00 per month, monthly operating account is
approximately $30,000,00 and monthly expenses are $28,000.00, which sometimes this
allows us to have the opportunity to add to the Reserves when possible. Unfortunately, we
have experienced a series of roofing, concrete, electrical and plumbing repairs, as well as
assisting some homeowners with their home damages due to leaks or losses from common
areas, especially for the past couple of years.
We continue to demonstrate an ability to maintain the operational upkeep, however; these
above detailed expenses are the result of an aging building in need of upgrades.
We all want to thank you in advance for your consideration and for any assistance you can
provide to our Association.

and equipment contemplated by this Agreement or the Project, whether directly or indirectly caused, in whole or
in part, by any act, omission, default, professional errors or omissions, or negligence (whether active or passive) of
the Grantee or its employees, agents, or subcontractors (collectively referred to as "Grantee"), regardless of whether
it is, or is alleged to be, caused in whole or part (whether joint, concurrent, or contributing) by any act, omission,

unreasonably withheld) for adequacy of protection and evidence of such coverage shall be furnished to the SEOPW
CRA on Certificates of Insurance indicating such insurance to be in force and effect and providing that it will not
be canceled, or materially changed during the performance of the Project under this Agreement without thirty (30)

Certificates of Insurance shall be filed with the SEOPW CRA, to the extent practicable, prior to the performance
of Services hereunder, provided, however, that Grantee shall at any time upon request by SEOPW CRA file
duplicate copies of the policies of such insurance with the SEOPW CRA. Grantee shall require all contractors and
subcontractors to comply with the requirements set forth in Exhibit D and further list the City and SEOPW CRA
as additional insured on all corresponding liability policies.
If, in the reasonable judgment of SEOPW CRA, prevailing conditions warrant the provision by Grantee of
additional liability insurance coverage or coverage which is different in kind, SEOPW CRA reserves the right to
require the provision by Grantee of an amount of coverage different from the amounts or kind previously required
and shall afford written notice of such change in requirements thirty (30) days prior to the date on which the

BACKGROUND:
A Resolution of the Board of Commissioners of the Southeast Overtown/Park West Community
Redevelopment Agency ("SEOPW CRA") by a four -fifths (4/5t1) affirmative vote after an advertised
public hearing, ratifying, approving, and confirming the Executive Director's recommendation and
finding that competitive negotiation methods and procedures are not practicable or advantageous pursuant
to sections 18-85 and 18-86 of the code of the City of Miami, Florida, as amended, as adopted by the
SEOPW CRA; waiving the requirements for competitive sealed bidding as not being practicable or
advantageous to the SEOPW CRA; authorizing the allocation of funds to 241 NW 17th Street, LLC, a
Florida limited liability Company, in an amount not to exceed Four Hundred and Twenty Five Thousand
Three Hundred and Two Dollars and Twenty Cents ($425,302.20) ("Funds") for additional costs
associated with the renovation and rehabilitation ("Purpose") of Sir John Guest House located at 241
N.W. 17th Street, Miami, Florida 33136 ("Property").
In 2020, the SEOPW CRA Board of Commissioners approved resolution CRA-R-20-0008 authorizing the
issuance of funds in the amount of $400,000.00 to rehabilitate Sir John Guest House, a two-story
residential building consisting of 23 single rooms and five (5) shared bathrooms. As an all-inclusive "flat -
rate" housing building, Sir John Guest House will allow low-income residents to enjoy affordable, secure,
safe, clean, and private housing in Historic Overtown.
Since the initial allocation of funds was approved, a required 40-year certification was conducted in
August of 2021 that revealed significant structural issues placing the building in the jurisdiction of the
Unsafe Structures Board and other required work items that were not part of the original scope of work
and related funds requests. In addition, the Coronavirus disease ("COVID-19") pandemic has resulted in
a significant increase in the cost and availability of materials and the cost of labor. Due to these issues,
additional funding will be required to complete the purpose of the Property.
On January 30, 2023, the Property permit was approved, as a result, to comply with the Unsafe Structures
Board, the Purpose of the Sir John Guest House must be completed by August 28, 2023.

BACKGROUND:
A Resolution of the Board of Commissioners of the Southeast Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment
Agency ("SEOPW CRA") by a four -fifths (4/5ths) affirmative vote after an advertised public hearing, ratifying,
approving, and confirming the Executive Director's recommendation and finding that competitive negotiation
methods and procedures are not practicable or advantageous pursuant to sections 18-85 and 18-86 of the code of
the City of Miami, Florida, as amended, as adopted by the SEOPW CRA; waiving the requirements for
competitive sealed bidding as not being practicable or advantageous to the SEOPW CRA; authorizing the
allocation of funds to 241 NW 17th Street, LLC, a Florida limited liability Company, in an amount not to exceed
Four Hundred and Twenty Five Thousand Three Hundred and Two Dollars and Twenty Cents ($425,302.20)
("Funds") for additional costs associated with the renovation and rehabilitation ("Purpose") of Sir John Guest
House located at 241 N.W. 17th Street, Miami, Florida 33136 ("Property").
In 2020, the SEOPW CRA Board of Commissioners approved resolution CRA-R-20-0008 authorizing the
issuance of funds in the amount of $400,000.00 to rehabilitate Sir John Guest House, a two-story residential
building consisting of 23 single rooms and five (5) shared bathrooms. As an all-inclusive "flat -rate" housing
building, Sir John Guest House will allow low-income residents to enjoy affordable, secure, safe, clean, and
private housing in Historic Overtown.
Since the initial allocation of funds was approved, a required 40-year certification was conducted in August of
2021 that revealed significant structural issues placing the building in the jurisdiction of the Unsafe Structures
Board and other required work items that were not part of the original scope of work and related funds requests.
In addition, the Coronavirus disease ("COVID-19") pandemic has resulted in a significant increase in the cost and
availability of materials and the cost of labor. Due to these issues, additional funding will be required to complete
the purpose of the Property.
On January 30, 2023, the Property permit was approved, as a result, to comply with the Unsafe Structures Board,
the Purpose of the Sir John Guest House must be completed by August 28, 2023.
RECOMMENDATION:
The SEOPW CRA recommends 241 NW 17th Street, LLC, to provide affordable, flat -rate housing to low-
income individuals. As a result, the Executive Director recommends approval of a bid waiver.

Mr. McQueen,
I am writing to request a grant of $550,000 to complete the affordable housing project located at 241
NW 17 Street Miami, FL 33136 ("Sir John").
Sir John is a two-story residential building consisting of 23 single rooms and 5 shared bathrooms. It is an
ideal residence for members of the community to enjoy affordable, secure, safe, clean, and private
housing in Historic Overtown. Historically, guest houses, or rooming houses, have been a large part of
the fiber of historically African -American communities, first -generation immigrant communities, and
many other communities in the City of Miami. As an all-inclusive "flat -rate" housing building, Sir John
allows low-income residents to enjoy the housing environment they deserve. Residents of Sir John can
save money without the worries of unpredictable utilities thus allowing them to financially prepare for
transitioning from a room, with shared bath, to a full housing setting such as an apartment or home. Sir
John creates an ideal opportunity for residents transitioning, either out of homelessness or an
involuntary downscale, to avoid homelessness by creating a below -market housing option.
Since my initial grant request in April of 2020, a required 40-year certification was conducted in August
of 2021 that revealed structural issues (which put the building in the jurisdiction of the Unsafe
Structures Board) and other issues that were not part of the original scope of work and related grant
request. In addition, the pandemic, inflation, the cost of materials, and the cost of labor has materially
increased since my initial grant request. Overall, all of the foregoing factors have increased the project
cost. Please note that construction will be a very basic retrofit to a 1941 building in order to refresh the
interior and exterior, reinforce the structure, and bring the building up to code where required.
With respect to the construction status of the project, my plans were submitted in August 2022 with the
permits approved on 1/30/23. As this building is currently under an order of the Unsafe Structures
Board, all permits must be closed by 8/28/2023.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Amani Kancey
