City of Miami, a municipal corpora- tion of the State of Florida: ATTEST: By RALPH G. ONGIE, CITY CLERK HOWARD V.

(Z)1 April_ 23, 3_984 FfLE: Amendment To Community Based. Organiza.ti_on Contracts may 10 Commission Agenda. "It is recommended that the City Commission authorize the City Manager to amend s6ven (7) indi- vidual contract agreements to extend the due date for generating the required project revenue in i-inount of $12,250, from April 30, ()84 to May 31, 1984." At the July 18, 1983 City Commission meeting, the City Commission adopted Resolution No. 83-627 which authorized the City Manager to enter into individual contractual agreements with nine (9) community based organizations (CBOs) for continuation of the implementation of a neighborhood economic development program in their respr_ctit-c U.arget areas. Then, at the September 7, 1983 City Ccruifi_ si_on meeting, authorization through Resolution No. 83--75 7 c,rantr_d for the City to enter into a neighborhood econ(-.mlJ.c c?t'�'c l.i )_?riiC:lit program contract x.,i.th an additional. CBO, the Al lal att,s}I Iic. ? c11<,.nt. Association . The funding source for all of the : c cc7ntract.-.s was the 9th year Community Development Block_ Gr,-jr,t )'i_oar<�m. As you kno<,,, c ur-ing the, FY ' 82-' 83 contract, the City began to implement a three-year_ funding reduction program whose objective was to decrease each CBO's level of funding until FY 185-'86 when hopefully, all the CBOs would be self-sufficient and would no longer depend on funding from the City. To this end, Article 6.2 of the current FY 183-184 CBO contract stipulates that each organization is required to generate funds in the amount of $12,250 by January 1, 1984 from approved revenue generating projects. It further states that "in the event a Contractor fails to generate the above amounts by January 1, 1994, this contract will be terminated and all outstanding and unencumbered and unused monies will be returned to the City." -• i 11 Page 2 On November 18, 1983, the Department of Economic Development (DED) requested that each CBO submit a report on the status of its revenue generation. Since at that time only two CBOs -- the Northeast Dade Chamber of Commerce (formerly known as the Little Ri-ver Chamber of Commerce-) an(! the Over totn Economic Development Corporation-- were sr_rccessfu_1_ i_n meeti.nq the contract requirement to r-a_ .se the required $1.2,2.50 by January 1, 1984, the City Commission was asked to extend. the deadline date for this requirement from January 1, 1.984 to April_ 30, 1984. On January 1.9, 1984, the City Commission passed Reso- lution No. 84-41 authorizing the extension of this deadline until April_ 30, 1984. The DED staff recently met with each of the eight (8) CBOs that had been granted a contract extension to determine their progress towards achieving the income generation require- ment. As of April 25, 1984, the following is a report indicating the amount of income raised by each CBO as well as the amount of income that it must still generate to reach the $12,250 goal. CBO Amount Raised As Of. 4/25/84 (1) Allapattah Business Development -0_ Authority (2) Allapattah Merchants Association $7,429.76 (3) Coconut Grove LDC, Inc. $14,788.32 (4) Downtown Miami Business Associa- $1,667.01 tion, Inc. (5) Little Havana Development Autho- $6,250.00 rity, Inc. (6) Martin Luther King Economic $60,641.96 Development Corporation (7) Small Business Opportunity $6,500.00 Center, Inc. (8) Wynwood Community Economic -0- Development, Inc. Amount Needed To Be Raised To Meet $12,250 Goal $12,250.00 $4,820.24 -0- $10,582.99 $6,000.00 $5,608.04 $ 5,750.00 $12,250.00 .� 61 Page 3 Although an update report will. be available at the May loth City Commission meeting, it is obvious from the information noted on the preceding page that seven (7) of these eight (8) CBOS will- not have met the contract requirement of raising $12,250 by ilpri_1. 30, 1984F its a resnlf-, the following - .e three (3) alternat:.i_ves th,-,it are available to the City in resolving this matter 1) Terminate the contract on April 30, 1984 for all CBOs that have not, raised the $12,250; 2) Waive the income generation requirement from this year's contract-; or 3) Amend the contract a second time, giving each CBO one additional month or until May 31, 1984 to raise the required $12,250. It is recommended that the City select the last alternative which will grant each CBO a one -month extension, or until May 31, 1984 to generate the $12,250 in revenues. This is based on the fol- lowing reasons: 1) Each CBO will be able to continue to implement its economic development program; 2) It is obvious that nota fev7, but a majority, of the CBOs have not .r_ aisoCl the $12,250; and 3) It is hoped that l.)y providing each CBO with a one -- month extension, the majority of them will be able to raise the required $12,250.
