RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Board of Directors of the Southeast Overtown/Park West Community
Redevelopment Agency (SEOPW CRA) approve the attached Resolution authorizing the
Executive Director to continue the existing Emergency Shoring & Bracing Services provided by
Encore Builders, Inc., for the Ward Rooming House located at 249-255 NW 9th Street in
Overtown for that portion of FY '05 (October 1, 2004 through September 30, 2005) as required
at a monthly fee of $1,700.00 for a total cost not to exceed $20,400.00
JUSTIFICATION:
The Ward Rooming House has been shored and braced since August 2003 by Encore Builders,
Inc., to prevent further structural failure as approved and ratified by the SEOPW Board of
Directors on September 29, 2003, via Resolution No. 03-83 (copy of Clerk's Report attached) in
the amount of $19,800.00, which provided the services on a monthly basis through December
2003. In January 2004, SEOPW Resolution No. 04-08 (copy of Clerk's Report attached) was
adopted by the Board which extended this service through September 2004 at a cost of
$10,800.00. It is now necessary to extend this service, once again, through the FY '05 fiscal
year or until the building is turned over to a General Contractor to renovate. The funding and
award authorization in this proposed Resolution will only be expended to the point that a
General Contractor takes responsibility for the building, but is being sought for the entire fiscal
year in the event that this renovation project does not go forward. As you are aware, the Board
approved the development of Architectural & Engineering plans at the September 20, 2004
Board Meeting via CRA Resolution No. 04-0008 (copy of marked agenda attached) at a cost of
$80,541.50 by the CRA's Consulting Engineers, TY Lin/HJ Ross. In addition, $600,000 of
SEOPW TIF funding for the actual renovation construction has been identified in the SEOPW
FY'05 Capital Projects Budget which was also approved by the Board at the September 20,
2004 Board Meeting.
FUNDING: $20,400.00 from SEOPW TIF Account No. 689001.550108.6.860 entitled:
Construction in Progress.
