Request Approval of Resolution Authorizini
City Manager to Transfer $1,400,000 t
from the Capital Improvement Fund for
Section 8 Housing Development
City Commission Agenda, July 24, 1980
It is recommended that the City Commission approve
the attached Resolution authorizing the City Manaqer
to transfer $1,400,000 from the Capital Improvement
Fund to the General Obligation Housing Bond Fund on
an interim basis to assist in the development of four
Section 8 housing projects in the City of Miami
designated Dade 8-1 (Wynwood), Dade 8-3 (Coconut Grove), `
Dade 8-11 (Little Havana), and Dade 8-12 (Town Park)
located in the City of Miami. ..
�a
By Resolution No. 76-612, the City of Miami Commission authorized the execution of
an agreement for financing housing in the City of Miami by and between Dade County
and the City of Miami, for the purpose of developing Section 8 housing projects in
the City.
• Originally, these four projects, comprising 225 housing units, were to be financed
through Dade County Special Revenue Bonds. however, due to the unexpectedly high
interest rates Dade County has experienced in the sale of its Special Revenue
Housing Bonds, there exists a $1,400,000 shortfall between the total amount of
available Dade County Special Revenue Bonds and the total development costs for
the aforementioned Section 8 projects.
On May 8, 1980, by Resolution No. 80-344, the City Commission authorized the sale
of General Obligation Ftousinq Bonds in the amount of $1,400,000, with the proceeds
to be used as a capital contribution for the development of Section 8 housing
projects designated Dade 8-1 (Wynwood), Dade 8-3 (Coconut Grove), Dade 8-11 (Little
Havana), and Dade 8-12 (Town Park). The sale of $1,400,000 in (lousing Bond proceeds
has been delayed until Fall of 1980.
In order to move forward with the development of these four Section 8 housing
projects as planned, the use of $1,400,0Cn from the City's Capital Improvement Fund
appears to be the most expeditious method of developing the projects. Reimburse-
ment of all expenditures incurred with int-crest will occur when the General Obli-
gation tlousinq Bond proceeds become available this fall.
Commission approval of this item is recommended.
