The Museum Park Project ("Project") shall be designed, planned, constructed and operated upon the Entire Site as depicted in Exhibit "A." Each component of the Project, including each Museum and the Park Component, is depicted in the site plan developed by Cooper Robertson and Partners ("Cooper Robertson") attached hereto as Exhibit "B" (the "Site Plan"). Cooper Robertson, the architectural and urban design firm hired by the City to work with the Parties, has developed a Museum Park Master Plan, Program of Requirements and Design Principles that includes: the Site Plan delineating the locations of the Museums and general design guidelines for the Museums; design development plans for the Park (including but not limited to landscape, structures, infrastructure, access roads, parking and marine project elements); and a course of action for addressing other critical infrastructure and development issues. The Parties acknowledge receipt of the Museum Park Design Development Documents prepared by Cooper Robertson and referenced hereto as Exhibit "C" (the "Museum Park Design Development Documents") and agree to work jointly and with Cooper Robertson to reach a consensus regarding the key issues, including but not limited to the site plan, design guidelines and the timetable for completing each component of the Project. Exhibit "C," as amended from time to time, is on file with the City's Department of Capital Improvements and with the County's Office of the County Clerk. The Parties acknowledge that as of the date of this MOU the City intends to fund the Park Component from tax increment revenues from the Omni Community Redevelopment Area (the "CRA"), subject to the expansion of the CRA's boundaries. In the event the CRA boundaries are not expanded and the City does not identify other funds sufficient to complete the Park Component as specified in the Museum Park Design Development Documents, then the Parties shall work collaboratively and with Cooper Robertson to reach a consensus regarding any adjustments to the scope of the Park Component. The Parties further acknowledge that the Park Component and related infrastructure may not be developed on the same schedule as the rest of the Project. It is the intent of the City and the Museums to coordinate the work and the development of the different components, such as infrastructure and shared facilities to minimize time and maximize cost savings. By way of example, if the development of the Museum Component requires the completion of work that the City may be required to perform but at the time the need arises is not ready to do so, then, to the extent feasible, the Museums shall attempt to have the work completed with the City and the Museums to pay their prorated shares of such cost. It is the intent of the City that by the opening date of the Museums Component, it will make sufficient improvements to the Park to open the Park to the public and to provide an attractive setting for the opening and operation of the Museums to the extent of availability of funding. The Parties agree to constitute a Museum Park Project Steering Group ("Museum Park Steering Group") comprised of representatives from each of the Parties to oversee and coordinate the planning, design and construction of the Museum Park Project and the development, implementation and marketing of programming for the Museum Park Project.
