Department of Trade & Co rce (LRCA) Request for $50,000
Development
In reference to the scheduled appearance of representation of
the LRCA before the City Commission on September 15, 1980, please
be advised that:
1. In accordance with the terms of Resolution
2.
3.
JAC/es
#80-517 the Department of Trade & Commerce
Development contacted both the LRCA and
the Metro Dade County Office of Community
and Economic Development relative to the
acceptability of the proposed joint venture
between the LRCA and the Edison -Buena Vista
Local Development Corporation. The results
of these contacts were negative to the joint
venture.
Based upon the inability to implement the
City's Neighborhood Economic Development
Program in the Edison/Little River CD Area
as a joint venture, the Department of Trade
and Commerce Development has proceeded, in
accord with the terms of Resolution #80-517,
to execute and implement the said contract
with the Edison -Buena Vista Local Development
Corporation as the only contract agency.
It is our recommendation, based on the above facts,
that LRCA be granted $50,000 from the City with
the following understanding:
a. That this City grant will not be
renewed past this CD year.
b. That LRCA is expected to seek other
sources of funds to thus make it self
sufficient in the future.
