Pursuant to said Resolution, six (6) of the eleven parcels of City -owned land (the "Properties") were conveyed to Miami Dream Homes Investment Group, Inc. ("Miami Dream Homes"), by quit claim deed dated September 27, 2005, for the construction of affordable single family homes. Pursuant to Resolution No. 06-0329, adopted May 25, 2006, the City Commission approved one parcel, located at 1525 NW 60 street, Miami, Florida, to be developed as a new construction multi- family rental project consisting of seven (7) units for low income persons. Pursuant to Resolution No. 07-0133, adopted March 08, 2007, the City Commission approved the modification of condition/restriction No. 5 of the corrective quit claim deed, dated July 5, 2006, from the City of Miami to Miami Dream Homes to provide that construction on the properties of one (1) of the above referenced single family homes must commence no later than July 1, 2007. Due to issues with architect and engineering companies, and extensive delays in obtaining permits due to new permit requirements in the development district, Miami Dream Homes was unable to complete the multi -family rental project on the parcel located at 1525 NW 60TH Street, Miami, Florida, in the timeframe required. Due to Miami -Dade County policy changes that gave priority to the Dade County infill program, Miami Dream Homes experienced delays on the parcels, located at 1533 NW 58th Terrace, 1543 NW 59th Street, 1600 and 1610 NW 60th Street and 6020 NW 15th Avenue, Miami, Florida. Miami Dream Homes has completed and sold the single family homes on the parcels located at 1535 and 1545 NW 58th Terrace, Miami, Florida. Miami Dream Homes has resolved all issues and is ready to complete both the single family homes and the multi -family rental project. The Administration recommends granting Miami Dream Homes an extension of time until December 31, 2008, for Miami Dream Homes to complete the projects on the properties listed in Exhibit "A", and for the conveyance of the multi -family rental project to the City.
