2023-2024 CRA Business Incentive
& Assistance Program
Program Guidelines • Procedures • Application
Program Description
The CRA Business Incentive & Assistance Program assists qualified business or property owners with
building and property improvements that are directly related to opening of a new business, improving
an existing business, remedying code violations, providing ADA access, assisting existing businesses
struggling due to blight or natural disasters and eliminating blighting neighborhood conditions in the
targeted areas of the Omni CRA. Business incentive & assistance funds may be used for improvements
to properties that are not eligible for grant funding from other sources available in the area, or to
supplement grant funds awarded by other agencies.
Funds may not cross Omni CRA District Boundaries and are targeted at specific areas in the Omni CRA
District. This program is a match assistance program requiring a 25% match from the property or
business owner. The program has a project cap of $200,000. In addition to the required private match,
the grant recipient is responsible for all project costs that exceed $200,000 provided by the CRA. The
CRA may recommend and approve business funding at a lesser amount than requested. Awards are
given subject to the availability of funds and based on priorities outlined below. Funds from this
program are paid on a reimbursement basis or directly to the contractors performing the work upon the
provision of satisfactory invoices to the CRA. All Grantees requesting grant funding must have at least
three estimates from different Florida licensed general contractors.
Program Areas and Priorities
While both Downtown Miami and the Wynwood area have benefited from the boom in commercial and
residential development, areas within the CRA district have not seen the benefit of this investment.
Various business corridors of the Omni CRA suffer from neglected properties and a general aesthetic
that is not conducive for businesses to thrive in the community. The Omni CRA has prioritized
improvements to properties within the limits of the boundaries of the entire Omni CRA district (see
map).
In the Omni CRA, priorities include projects that can use CRA funds to leverage other public and private
investments and bring new business and restaurant/entertainment venues to distressed areas. In
addition, this program seeks to bring needed improvement to the Multi -family residential units within
the program boundaries.
Since buildings with a high level of vacancy are eligible, the requirement of Certificates of Use,
Occupational License and Fire Fee for each business location will be waived. Property owners using
these funds cannot sell building for a period of five (5) years after rehabilitation work is complete. If the
building is sold during the five-year period, the building owner will repay funds in full. Funds will be
guaranteed by lien, mortgage or deed covenant tied to the property. All work must meet local
neighborhood building/appearance codes and performed with applicable permits and inspections.

Program Areas and Priorities:
While parts of the Omni CRA's redevelopment area have benefited from the boom in commercial and
residential development, some areas within the CRA district have not seen the benefit of this
investment. The business corridors of the Omni CRA suffer from neglected properties and vacant
properties and a general aesthetic that is not conducive for businesses to thrive in the community. The
Omni CRA has prioritized improvements to properties within the limits of the boundaries of the entire
Omni CRA district (see map), but may choose to focus on particular problem areas.
Emergency Recovery & Business Interruption Microgrant
Due to large number of infrastructure and other construction projects, power outages,
burglaries, flooding, and other disaster -related interruptions in the changing neighborhoods of
the Community Redevelopment Area, businesses and residents may face difficulty in remaining
open, which can cause a negative cycle of blight and disinvestment. The CRA is committed to
preventing the conditions causing Slum & Blight and is offering a microgrant to businesses or
residents facing these problems.
Grant award can be used to conduct quick repairs to damaged property, replace damaged or
stolen equipment or infrastructure, increase signage, or defray other costs after or during a
business interruption or emergency. Grantees are selected on a rolling basis at the discretion of
the executive staff as funding permits.
Employment Opportunity Microgrant
Portions of the Omni CRA redevelopment area have a high underemployment rate. The CRA is
intent on increasing employment opportunities in the district and raising the median income
levels for residents and workers here. This microgrant is available to hire, train, and retain
workers at businesses within the Omni CRA which serve the local community and increase
quality of life and local activity. Grantees are selected on a rolling basis at the discretion of the
executive staff as funding permits.
Business owners using these funds are expected to commit to provide evidence of capacity to
remain in business and compensate employees after the grant ends. Best efforts must be made
to hire from the neighborhood, city, and then then county.
Building Improvement Microgrant
Due to the increased vacancies and the changing character of the neighborhoods in the CRA, it is
often necessary to upgrade the infrastructure of a building to improve customer experience,
change the use, add new AC, ventilation or sewer infrastructure, shift from temporary to
permanent operation, or to make signage or aesthetic improvements to the property. Building
Improvement Microgrants are available on a rolling basis, as funding permits, for businesses to
make small improvements to the building, facade, landscaping, signage, or other improvements
to the property.
