Bert Gonzalez Executive Director File: 14056 Subject: Discussion - Second Amendment Interlocal Agreement and the Assessment of Need Study Enclosures: 14056 OMNI CRA Timeline 14056 Finding of Necessity 14056 2nd Amendment to ILA BACKGROUND: The OMNI CRA is in the process of seeking the extension of the life of the CRA from 2030 to 2047. In furtherance of that objective, the CRA is required to prepare an Assessment of Need Study, amend its current Redevelopment Plan, and amend the Interlocal Agreement with its two taxing authorities, the City of Miami and Miami -Dade County. The Assessment of Need Study (Assessment) pursuant to Miami -Dade County Resolution No. R-611-15, which established the policy for the preparation and submission of an assessment of need study, whenever a CRA seeks approval to extend the life. The OMNI CRA Board discussed the Second Amendment to the ILA for the extension of life of the CRA at its January 12t", 2023 meeting. The expansion of the CRA boundaries was also discussed. PROPOSED DISCUSSION: The OMNI CRA desires to expand the OMNI CRA's boundaries to include an area in Allapattah and Watson Island, as more fully described in the Second Amendment ILA, and in order to provide for the expansion of the OMNI CRA boundaries finds that an Assessment of Need/Finding of Necessity is warranted due to the existing conditions of slum and blight, a shortage of housing affordable to residents of low or moderate income, including the elderly, within the Allapattah boundaries as described herein. The assessment and Finding of Necessity for the expansion of the CRA boundaries is being prepared by BusinessFlare; and The OMNI CRA wishes to further amend Resolution No. CRA-R-21-0033, to provide for the inclusion of the following provisions within the 2023 Second Amendment ILA: (1) a reduction of the OMNI CRA annual TIF revenue paid to the County from 35% to 25%; (2) the authorization to undertake an Assessment of Need/Finding of Necessity (FoN) for the expansion of the OMNI CRA's boundaries to include the Allapattah and Watson Island area, as more fully described in the 2023, 2nd Amendment ILA; (3) no County Commissioner representation on the OMNI CRA Board of Commissioners; and (4) the Omni CRA to implement and fund certain projects of Packet Pg. 3 2.1 benefit to all parties and extend the life of the CRA to 2047. The OMNI CRA intends to present the final 2023, 2nd Amendment and related documents to the OMNI CRA Board on July 13, 2023, for final approval.

Executive Summary Omni CRA Proposed Expansion Area The Omni CRA Expansion Areas are located in the Southeast Region of the State of Florida, in Miami -Dade County (pop. 2.6 Million), and within the City of Miami (pop. 439,890). More specifically, it compromises two (2) areas in need of strategic investment and improvements: 1. Allapattah (The zip codes for Allapattah include part of 33125, 33127 and 33142) 2. Watson Island (The zip code for Watson Island is part of 33132) These areas have lagged the redevelopment, revitalization, and economic growth experienced by other parts of the city, including the success of the Omni Community Redevelopment Area ("CRA"). There have been many efforts, through the redevelopment plan, and most recently including land development regulations code changes, as well as other efforts that have contributed to successful revitalization. Through this finding of necessity, the Omni CRA proposes an expansion to the current boundary to serve an area of need. This will allow a dedicated team (Omni CRA staff) to allocate funds to specific projects and implement strategies, projects and programs to make improvements. A Community Redevelopment Area is a tool created pursuant to State Law, Florida Statutes Chapter 163 Intergovernmental Programs Part III Community Redevelopment (ss. 163.330-163.463), which designates an area for redevelopment and authorizes the governing body to exercise certain powers to implement redevelopment. The Omni CRA proposed expansion area can benefit from the public and private investments that a designation as a CRA can bring. The City of Miami has demonstrated experience with redevelopment success through CRAs: This expansion will improve the quality of life of the area's residents, generate economic development, and improve the physical environment for the city, county, and state. To this end, BusinessFlare® has conducted an analysis and review of the expansion areas. A Finding of Necessity is an assessment of an area, supported by data and analysis, that provides evidence of slum and blight as defined in Section 163.355, Florida Statutes. The Finding of Necessity report is used as a planning resource by government entities to identify area(s) of need within their jurisdiction that may impose an onerous burden to the entity, decrease the tax base, and which constitutes a serious and growing menace, injurious to the public health, safety, morals, and welfare of residents.

This Finding of Necessity report presents conclusive evidence that if left unattended, will persist and undoubtedly extend to and beyond the boundaries of the Omni CRA. These conditions may lead to an economic and social liability to the City of Miami and Miami -Dade County, and could consume additional resources to address the myriad of issues outlines above, while potentially reducing the local tax base.

Introduction Context Background The City of Miami was incorporated in 1896 with 444 citizens. Along with the railroad, Henry Flagler financed and built streets, water and power systems and a resort hotel. Canals were made to drain water from the everglades that covered a majority of the land. Given its strategic location, it was no surprise that Miami soon became an instant tourist attraction and retreat for the rich and famous. This prompted the first of many real estate booms. In 1926, post a major hurricane, Overtown, an area slated for African -Americans, was a hot spot for the Harlem renaissance elite. Once known as "Little Broadway" headliners like Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, Cab Calloway, and others frequented the area. Since the late 1960's, Miami has become a mix of cultural influences. The city experience a large population growth with neighborhoods known as Little Havana, which was established with over 500,000 Cuban -Americans. Prior to this population growth, the African -American and Caribbean population made up approximately one-third of the total population. The late 1970's saw yet another immigration influx when over 100,000 Haitians and Nicaraguans fled their countries' newly overthrown governments. Finally, in 1980, the Mariel boatlift transported an additional 150,000 Cubans to Miami. Allapattah The Allapattah community, which name has its origins in the Seminole word for alligator, began in 1856 and covers 4.653 square miles within the core of the City of Miami. The neighborhood is east of the Miami International Airport and bounded by major highways and the Miami River, which are important to local area businesses. Allapattah is served by the Metrorail, with three stations: Civic Center, Santa Clara and Allapattah. Today the area has a large wholesale produce market and a cut flower district, which is served by the South Florida Rail Corridor running east - west between NW 22 and 23 Streets. Additionally, the area is also well known for its clothing outlets, serving as a trading ground for buyers and sellers especially from Latin America and the Caribbean. Allapattah was predominantly White until the late 1950s, when there was a large influx of African -Americans displaced by the construction of Interstate Highway 95 in Overtown, and southern migration of blacks from the Liberty City and Brownsville neighborhoods. Cubans began moving into the neighborhood in the 1960s. In the 1980s there was an influx of Dominicans, Nicaraguans and later Haitians.

It is located Immediately east of the Central Business District and Arts & Entertainment District neighborhoods of downtown Miami and is connected to the mainland and South Beach, Miami Beach by the MacArthur Causeway. The island was deeded to the city in 1919 with the restriction that it only be used for public or municipal purposes. The city gave it to the state and the state deeded it back to the city with similar restrictions - both in the 1940s. The City through this Finding of Necessity seeks to move forward with the expansion of their Omni CRA boundary located in an underserved area to attract investment and bring it back to its glorious days. This report will showcase that the existing conditions of these areas shows disinvestment and blighted conditions that need to be remediated.

Conclusion Summary of Recommendations In accordance with Florida Statutes Chapter 163 Intergovernmental Programs Part III Community Redevelopment (ss. 163.330-163.463), BusinessFlare® completed a comprehensive analysis of conditions within the City of Miami and Omni CRA proposed expansion area and determined that redevelopment of the community is necessary to ensure the safety and economic welfare of its residents. The findings are documented throughout this report. The proposed expansion areas for the Omni CRA met the measures of "blight" as defined in ss.163.330-163.463. Next Steps: Following acceptance of this Finding of Necessity by the Board of Commissioners of the Omni CRA, the City of Miami Commission must approve the Finding of Necessity by resolution. The City must give proper notice for the public hearing and inform all other taxing authorities of their desire to approve the findings 15 days prior to the actual adoption of the report. After that, the Finding of Necessity must be approved by the Miami -Dade County Commission. The County generally follows a three -step process, meeting first with the TIF Committee, then with a Commission Committee, and finally with the County Commission. During this process, the City and the CRA in conjunction with the Consultant will complete an amendment to the current Community Redevelopment Plan to incorporate the new expansion areas. The process will include public engagement and further analysis of existing conditions and land use and design guidelines and principles. Once both the Finding of Necessity and Community Redevelopment Plan have been approved and updated, the City will add the expansion areas to the Redevelopment Trust Fund for purposes of funding projects within the Omni CRA.
