ENCLOSURES (For Commission Meeting 5-12-82
The Department of Public Works and the Department
of Economic Development recommend adoption of the
resolution approving the selection of Ronald E.
Frazier and Associates to perform Architectural
and Engineering services for the EDISON PLAZA
PROJECT and urging the Tacolcy Economic Development
Corporation to expedite a negotiated agreement.
The EDISON PLAZA PROJECT is an endeavor by the Tacolcy Economic
Development Corporation (TEDC) to rehabilitate the building and
property at 645 N.W. 62 Street as a shopping and office plaza.
This site was formerly the location of Frederick's Market, and
more recently Pantry Pride food store in the 1970's.
This project will be a focal point in the Edison Center community
and provide a needed economic boost. The Winn Dixie food chain
will be the anchor tenant in the 65,000 sq.ft. facility, with
other shops and offices occupying the remaining space.
The City of Miami and TEDC will be joint recipients of a Federal
EDA grant with $400,000 of the local match to be funded by the City.
The estimated construction cost is $1,800,000, with additional fund-
ing available from the Business Assistance Center, Miami Capital
Development and the Economic Development Corporation of Dade County.
A selection committee was formed and the selection of Ronald E.
Frazier aid Associates to provide the Architectural and Engineering
services necessary for the project was made in accordance with the
State of Florida Consultants Competitive Negotiation Act.
This project is behind schedule and it is urgent that negotiations
for the professional services be accomplished as soon as possible.
Federal EDA requires that the A/E selection be approved by the City.

LN,:LCSu RF_5
The City of Miami and the Tacolcy Economic Development Corpo-
ration (TEDC) will be joint recipients of a Federal Grant to
remodel the old Pantry Pride/Frederich's Market site into a
commercial plaza to include a Winn Dixie Supermarket and
various stores and offices.
The procedure for selecting an Architect/Engineer to provide
the professional services required for the project was followed
according to the State of Florida "Consultants Competitive
Negotiation Act" and approved by the Federal Economic Develop-
ment Administration.
Since the professional services for this project are to be
contracted by TEDC and not the City, it is not necessary to
follow the City's procedure for contracting such services.
However, Federal EDA does require the City's approval of the
Architect/Engineer selection. It may be noted that the State
of Florida's "Consultants Competitive Negotiation Act" mentioned
above is included in City Ordinance 8965 which establishes the
procedure for contracting Professional services by the City.
On March 9, 1983 "Request for Proposals" (RFP) were delivered
_ by courier to seventeen firms. The deadline for response to
the RFP was March 23, 1983.
On March 30, 1983, the A&E Selection Committee comprised of
Msrs. Jim Leukanech, City of Miami Public Works, Theo Rodgers,
A&R Development, James Sizemore, Winn Dixie & Otis Pitts, Jr.,
TEDC met at the TEDC office, 6140 Northwest 7th Avenue, to
evaluate the seven proposals submitted in response to the RFP.
The committee developed a scorecard to score the proposals sub-
mitted, and weighted the factors comprising the selection cri-

teria. Each of the proposals were assigned a number and evaluated

were tabulated and the firms ranked accordingly. The results

Studio

On April 12, 1983 the selection committee met to interview the
three most qualified firms. Upon completion of the meeting it
was decided to negotiate a contract with the most qualified
firm, Ronald E. Frazier and Associates.
