HEADER
TO: Honorable Chairperson and Members DATE: March 18, 1999
Board of County Commissioners
SUBJECT: Resolution Authorizing Lease Agreements for Community Space at
MDHA Developments
FROM: M.R. Stierheim
County Manager
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Board authorize the County Manager to enter into lease agreements
with community based non-profit organizations, Section 3 businesses, and other governmental
agencies for the use of community space at various public housing developments.
MANAGER'S BACKGROUND
Historically, MDHA has leased community space at various public housing developments to
community based non-profit organizations, other County departments and governmental entities.
These agencies provide various services to the residents of the public housing developments,
such as meals, recreation activities for the elderly, child care services, and educational activities.
On March 21, 1989, by Resolution No. 287-89, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC)
authorized the MDHA to negotiate and execute lease agreements for the use of community space
at various public housing developments for two year terms expiring on September 30, 1992. In
addition, on July 21, 1992, by Resolution No. 891-92, the BCC authorized the MDHA to
negotiate and execute lease agreements for community space at various public housing
developments and authorized the County Manager to exercise the cancellation provisions
contained therein.
It is in the best interest of MDHA and Miami -Dade County to continue the provision of these
services in order for our residents to participate in the program services, receive the services, and
benefit from the resources these non-profit organizations offer. To simplify the process of
negotiating and executing these leases and to be able to quickly available the residents of these
services, it is recommended that the Board grant the County Manager continuing authorization to
negotiate, execute and exercise cancellation clauses in lease agreements for the use of
community space at all of MDHA's public housing developments. These community spaces were
specifically designed to make social services available to residents of MDHA's developments.
As in the previous authorization, the leases will include the following requirements: a) leases
will be executed exclusively with community based non-profit organizations, Section 3, County
departments or other governmental agencies; b) lessees will provide services to the residents of
the public housing developments; c) the term of each lease shall not exceed 36 months; and d)
MDHA will recover the cost of utilities, maintenance and operating costs whenever possible.
Attached is the form of the Community Space Lease Agreement to be used as approved by the
County Attorney's Office.
