CRA DISCUSSION DISCUSSION ITEM ON SHOT SPOTTER FLEX GUNFIRE ALERT AND City of Miami Page 2 Printed on 8/30/2013 SEOPW Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting Minutes April 29, 2013 ANALYSIS SERVICE. File # 13-00517 04-29-13 Cover Memo.pdf DISCUSSED Chair Spence -Jones: We're going to move on to Shot Spotter. I finally got that word right, huh? Like kunfire." Commissioner Suarez: Thank you, Madam Chair. I'll just make a very brief comment on it. We are going to be bringing this before the City Commission at the next Commission meeting, and the CRA (Community Redevelopment Agency) portion of Shot Spotter obviously has to be within the CRA boundary of Overtown, and that's roughly one square mile. And the other two parts -- there has to be a minimum order of three square miles, but the CRA's piece is going to be approximately $70,000. So it's a very small allocation in comparison to the benefits that this, you know, technology can bring to our community. We talked about it a lot at the Commission meeting. We have to think differently, and we have to try to -- it's our obligation, really, to do everything that we can to reduce or eliminate the gun violence in our community, and if that means implementing new technology that gives us new techniques to try to either allocate resources differently, or to get evidence -- Chair Spence -Jones: Yeah. Commissioner Suarez: -- or just to change our policing tactics, then it's something that we all have an obligation to explore, and I really want to thank you for your leadership. And, you know, once the idea was presented, you, you know, were supportive of it from the get -go, you know. You asked that it be brought before the CRA, and even at the Commission meeting, you were extremely supportive of it. And, you know, we have to, as a Commission, we all have to, you know, kind of support each other. And I remember when -- now, I know we're going to talk about validation a little bit later. When the -- I remember very vividly, and I was thinking about what I wanted to say here today on this issue. When you were struggling to convince the Commission about the bond, whether we should bond that money out, and I was the chairman of the Commission at the time, and I could see the struggle. And I said, This is a moment where I have to really take a leadership position," and passed the gavel, and made the motion which everyone, I think, ultimately voted in favor of. But it was a struggle. And I could see the emotion in your eyes as the tears kind of flowed when you saw that, you know -- Chair Spence -Jones: Finally. Commissioner Suarez: -- that we were finally getting it. So, you know, that's how I feel about the support you've given me on this item. And we both have a very deep love for this community and the City. Chair Spence -Jones: Yes. Commissioner Suarez: And I think you and I both feel a tremendous sense of anxiety when we see the things that we see on a daily basis. And you and I, you know, neither one of us are complacent when it comes trying to find ways to, you know, to make our community better. Chair Spence -Jones: Resolve issues. Yeah. Commissioner Suarez: Thank you. Chair Spence -Jones: And I just want to commend your leadership, as well, on this issue. For those that are listening, we've been trying to address this issue of gun violence that's happening throughout, really, the City, but primarily, most of it is happening in Liberty City, Little Haiti, and Overtown, and a little bit in Wynwood, but for the most part, in those areas. And this new City of Miami Page 3 Printed on 8/30/2013 SEOPW Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting Minutes April 29, 2013 technology, or this technology will allow for us to identify exactly where guns are being shot in certain areas, and to be able to track them immediately. I mean, literally, it's scanners that are put in key areas throughout Overtown, and when you shoot a bullet, there is actually a radar type screen that will pick up where the bullet was shot. And you can kind of like, you know, at least have a sense of where, you know, where things took place. So it takes innovative ideas, you know, to address these issues. And one of my biggest concerns as a leader, we have to think outside of the box, you know. The criminals are thinking outside of the box, so we have to think outside of the box to address it. Young people are dying daily because of this gun violence, and this is just one of the many things that we do. We put together through the Overtown CRA an initiative to kind of address crime through the police department, and we're going to still continue to do that, but this will just assist or aid them in that manner. So with that being said, I know that we're waiting for Commissioner Gort to walk through the door any moment now, so we will ask Frank how long. Today -- Frank Castan"eda (Executive Assistant, Commissioner Gort/District 1): (UNINTELLIGIBLE) Chair Spence -Jones: OKAY. All right. We have a very short agenda. It's not going to be very long. We should be in and out. We only have about four items on the agenda. So we'll recess for about five minutes to give him an opportunity to be here -- to get here. So we'll recess for five. 3. CRA DISCUSSION 13-00518 DISCUSSION ITEM ON THE DUNN HOTEL BED AND BREAKFAST. RESOLUTIONS 4. 13-00346 File # 13-00518 4-29-13 Cover Memo.pdf WITHDRAWN Chair Spence -Jones: Okay, I know that Commissioner Gort -- Chairman [sic] Gort is on his way, but we do have some discussion items, and I want to kind of get those out of the way. We're going to start off with our financials -- Miguel. And then we're going to go straight into our updates. Really quickly, we'd like to strike item number 3 off the agenda, discussion on the Dunn Hotel and the bed and breakfast. We're just -- we're actually taking that item off so we will not be discussing that today. CRA RESOLUTION A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS OF THE SOUTHEAST OVERTOWN/PARK WEST COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY ("SEOPW CRA") AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF THE ATTACHED COMMUNITY BENEFITS AGREEMENT WITH TOWNSEND ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION ("TOWNSEND") AND THE OMNI REDEVELOPMENT DISTRICT COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY RELATING TO TOWNSEND'S COMMITMENT TO SUPPORTING THE SEOPW CRA'S REDEVELOPMENT EFFORTS. File # 13-00346 4-29-13 Cover Memo.pdf File # 13-00346 4-29-13 Legislation with attachment.pdf Motion by Board Member Suarez, seconded by Vice -Chair Gort, that this matter be ADOPTED PASSED by the following vote. City of Miami Page 4 Printed on 8/30/2013 SEOPW Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting Minutes April 29, 2013 Votes: Ayes: Chair Spence -Jones, Vice Chair Gort and Commissioner Suarez Absent: Commissioner Carollo and Commissioner Sarnoff CRA-R-1 3-0027 Chair Spence -Jones: I want to go ahead and start. I guess well go into Item Number 4, which is a resolution. Clarence Woods (Executive Director, Community Redevelopment Agency): Yes. Chair Spence -Jones: And I believe Jessica was actually working on this resolution. Mr. Woods: Commissioner, it's a resolution of the Board of Commissioners of the Southeast Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment agency authorizing execution of the attached Community Benefits Agreements with Townsend Entertainment Corporation and the Omni Redevelopment District Community Redevelopment Agency relating to Townsend's commitment to supporting the Southeast Overtown/Park West CRA's (Community Redevelopment Agency) redevelopment efforts. Chair Spence -Jones: So Jessica -- I would like for, definitely, Jessica to put things on the record about this. I do want to say this to my fellow Commissioners that sit to my right and my left: Earlier, before you got here, Commissioner Gort, Suarez mentioned innovation, you know, stepping outside of the box, really doing things that are not normally done to really provide our young people with, you know, a positive alternative, compared to what they see all the time. I see one of the parents that actually participated in the program, and it was an awesome program. As of June, we'll get a chance to see -- or the actual movie will be debuted in June during the American Black Film Festival, and many of those young people that were in front of the cameras and behind the cameras will have the opportunity to see themselves. So that's what it's about. We just wanted to make sure, in the process of all of this, that something actually came back to the CRA for our investment in the project and supporting the project. So with that being said, Jessica, if you can officially put the key points on the record so at least the community understands what came out of --what's coming out of this agreement. Jessica Pacheco (Outside Counsel, Community Redevelopment Agency): Hello. This item was previously presented to the board in January of this year, and what was presented was the staffs draft of the agreement. At the request of Commissioner Gort and the other board members, we brought the item back in its final form. There weren't any other substantive negotiations, aside from some administrative provisions in the agreement, that allowed for audit rights by the CRA. So basically, the terms of the agreement consist of the following: The CRA previously gave a grant to this particular grantee, as well as the Omni CRA, and in an effort to leverage the CRA's dollars that were provided in the form of a grant, the grantee agreed to reimburse the cost of the grant from any distribution proceeds that were realized from the movie in exchange for -- So, essentially, it was our grant, and in exchange for producing, you know, the grant funds to them, they said they would give us the reimbursement. Other than that, I mean, it's pretty straightforward. The grant funds are expected to be utilized -- whatever we get in reimbursement would be expected to be utilized for programs that are specific to, like, kids and educational opportunities within the redevelopment area. But other than that, I mean, it was a great deal, especially-- it didn't really cost us anything to realize that leverage so. Chair Spence -Jones: Sure. Mr. Woods: Commissioner, I just want to put on the record this -- the reimbursement is above and beyond actual -- what the grant actually calls for. This was Mr. Townsend's proffer. You know, in that this is somewhat different than other grants that we usually provide, we received the benefit of the grant with the training and the kids being on site, getting all of the tutelage and whatnot from the production. That's what we paid -- well, that's what we committed the grant City of Miami Page 5 Printed on 8/30/2013 SEOPW Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting Minutes April 29, 2013 for. Chair Spence -Jones: Yes. Mr. Woods: Was for the training and the education. So we received that. Chair Spence -Jones: Right. Mr. Woods: We did get that. His wanting to give a reimbursement is because this is a different situation where he may actually realize some proceeds from the grant. Then, he said, OK, if that happens, then we'll go ahead and we'll give the money back. "So that's -- this is above and beyond our expected return. Chair Spence -Jones: And we have training programs, we know, throughout Overtown that we give out either more or less in capital funds, and we don't receive any dollars back to our coffers. So -- but I want to just ask before I move on to the next item, I don't know if any of my other fellow Commissioners have any questions about this issue. Vice Chair Gort: No questions. Chair Spence -Jones: OK. No questions? All right. So with that being said, we have -- Commissioner Suarez: Move it. Chair Spence -Jones: We have a motion and a second? Vice Chair Gort: Move it. Chair Spence -Jones: All in favor? The CRA Board (Collectively): Aye Chair Spence -Jones. All right, this item passes. I have a parent that wants to at least put something on the record. I thank you for coming out. Keith Ivory: Thank you very much. Hello, Commissioners, Nathan. My name is Keith Ivory. I'm one of the ABFF (American Black Film Festival) parents, we've been calling ourselves. We had a meeting last week, and it was a good meeting, and Nate was at the meeting, and one of the things that came out of the meeting that the parents mentioned was that they would like to have some type of incentive for the kids regarding the high definition cameras, maybe some type of thing where once the kids go through the training, for those who really surpassed, they can be able to get those high definition cameras, you know, in their hands, so they would -- that way, they can work on their projects. And I know some of the other parents mentioned some things about maybe scholarships to some of the film schools, and things like that. Chair Spence -Jones: Okay. Mr. Ivory: So that was a piece they just wanted to add to the Community Benefits Agreement. Chair Spence -Jones: Okay. Mr. Ivory: I don't know if it's closed yet or if it's still open or if there's a -- maybe a space that we can maybe talk about that at some point. Mr. Woods: Well, like I said, what -- not this particular Community Benefits Agreement. This is City of Miami Page 6 Printed on 8/30/2013 SEOPW Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting Minutes April 29, 2013 in excess of what's already been provided. If the film or the distribution of the film should happen to make some profits in excess of what is being spent, then, should that money come back to us, we can then look at possibly providing some of the things that you talked about, but there is no guarantee that funding will come back. It's just if it does, over a certain threshold of expenditures, then he's obligated himself to pay it back. Mr. Ivory: Right, right. Chair Spence -Jones: And let me just mention this, too. It is in the agreement that it could be used for scholarships, as well. Mr. Woods: Yes. Chair Spence -Jones: But, again, that's after the realization of whether or not it gets placed or he licensed the actual project. This was a pilot project, and I just want to make sure the public understands this. This is a pilot project. We learned a lot along the way. We understand that government should do government stuff and film -making people should do film -making stuff. But we also understand how important it is for us to be innovative in our processes and how we approach what we work -- what we do with young people. So one of the things that we are going to be doing now -- and I would make the suggestion to you -- is that we are opening the Film Life Institute on Booker T. Washington's campus. And I think a lot of those suggestions that you're making now should definitely be directed towards them for any of the initiatives that young people have, you know, an interest in. And, Yvette, if you could raise your hand. I know you're asking as the liaison at this point for ABFF, but you can definitely see Yvette afterwards, and any recommendations that you may have for the Film Life Institute, we can do that. Yvette Harris: Just to let -- Chair Spence -Jones: Your name? Ms. Harris: Hi. My -- Yvette Harris, the American Black Film Festival. The students that participated on Mr. Townsend's film will be attending the festival. They're going to have an opportunity to meet with some of the celebrities, the directors, the actors, and we have a full day -- two days planned for them. So if there is anything else, we can speak later just to see how we can make a cohesive intro to some of the key people in the film industry. Chair Spence -Jones: All right. All right. Thank you. Mr. Ivory: OK. Thank you very much, and it's been a pleasure working with you and also working with Mr. Nathaniel over there. Okay. Chair Spence -Jones: All right. Mr. Ivory: Thank you. Chair Spence -Jones: Thank you so much. We had a motion and a second on this item. All in favor? Vice Chair Gort: I thought we voted on it already. Chair Spence -Jones: Oh, we did? Vice Chair Gort: Yeah. Chair Spence -Jones: I thought -- I didn't hear tiye. "Okay. All right.

DISCUSSED Chair Spence -Jones: So, Mr. Clerk, we'd like to officially bring the meeting back in order, but before we go into item number -- the resolutions -- I would like to have you guys put your hands together for our Vice Chair that has taken on the role of validation -- Applause. Chair Spence -Jones: -- for OT (Overtown). And what that means is that the first very big step today was accomplished, and I just want to say to the Vice Chair that I really, really appreciate you bird-dogging this issue, and making sure that it got done. And I don't know where our FA (Financial Advisor) guys -- our financial advisor guys are, but I know that you stayed on top of them, working with Clarence, working with Jessica. Bill, you worked on it, as well. I know it drove you guys crazy, butt wanted to at least acknowledge Commissioner Gort, because for the first time in a very, very long time, we're going to see major transformation happening in OT. So please give yourselves a hand, and give Vice Chair a hand. Applause. Chair Spence -Jones: Even though the item's not on the agenda, I would like you to speak to the public about it, so that at least we have it on the record. Vice Chair Gort: Sure. Well, it was a lot of work. I mean, it was teamwork. There was a lot of documents going back and forth, because it's not an easy transaction. Like we explained at the beginning, this was a very difficult transaction that had to be put together with a lot of agreements that had to be signed, and going back and forth to make sure that we didn't have any problem with the validation. So my understanding is the judge today ruled on it in good form, so hopefully, in thirty days, we'll be able to do a bond issue, and then you'll have the funds to be City of Miami Page 9 Printed on 8/30/2013 SEOPW Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting Minutes April 29, 2013 able to start working, which is the main thing. Chair Spence -Jones: Yes. Vice Chair Gort: We want to see buildings going up. Chair Spence -Jones: Yes. Vice Chair Gort: People at work. Chair Spence -Jones: Well, I just want to thank you for staying on top -- and the whole entire CRA (Community Redevelopment Agency) staff and team, and outside counsel, inside counsel, all that stuff we have, Miguel and everybody for making it happen. So we are one step closer to major transformation happening in OT. So we're going - Clarence Woods (Executive Director, Community Redevelopment Agency): Commissioner, I'm sorry. Chair Spence -Jones: Sure. Mr. Woods: If you don't mind, I - Chair Spence -Jones: Sure. Mr. Woods: -- mean, coming from me, I have to acknowledge all the folks that you just acknowledged. Chair Spence -Jones: Yeah. Mr. Woods: But I need to do that publicly. Chair Spence -Jones: Yeah. Mr. Woods: Because, you know, a lot of times, behind the scene, these guys are working so hard and so diligent. Bill Bloom has been, you know -- I don't know what else I can say about Bill, but Commissioner Gort and the rest of the team, all of staff, I mean, when we had to get agreements done; Jessica, you know, getting all the certified copies, and all of the information that was needed. It was a testament to the collective effort when the judge said today that the package was so thorough -- Chair Spence -Jones: Amen. Mr. Woods: -- that he didn't need to, you know, have any more information. He's gone through everything, and he signed off on it today. Chair Spence -Jones: Wonderful. Mr. Woods: And that was a wonderful testament to all of the efforts of everybody that you just mentioned with Commissioner Gort staying on top of us and making sure that we were being timely with all of the submittals and submissions. Chair Spence -Jones: And we want to thank you, Clarence, for your leadership, because, you know, you're born and -- Applause.
