RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Board of Directors of the Southeast Overtown/Park West Community
Redevelopment Agency (SEOPW CRA) adopt the attached Resolution, with attachment(s), authorizing the
Executive Director to enter into a one-year agreement with Bercow and Radell, P.A., pursuant to Florida
Statutes 380.06 to: (1) Amend the Development Impact Fee Ordinance 01-1159 for $28,500; (2) Update
the SEOPW Development of Regional Impact (DRI) Development Orders for Increments I and II of the
SEOPW redevelopment area for $22,000; (3) Increase Increment III allocations to meet market demand
and land uses consistent with the proposed 2004 SEOPW Redevelopment Plan for $12,000 and (4) Look
at expanding the DRI boundaries for Increment III to incorporate the newly expanded SEOPW CRA
Boundaries for $8,000, plus $3,000 for reimbursables, for a total amount not to exceed $73,500.
JUSTIFICATION:
The Master Development Order for the SEOPW DRI was approved on February 11, 1988 by the City of
Miami Commission pursuant to City Resolution R-88-110 and R-88-111. Planning and Zoning has advised
the CRA that the total allowable development credits for Increments I, II and III is in need of updating to
account for projects with expired permits and/or demolished buildings (See Current Status of Increments 1
and II Development Credit, March 2004) within the DRI Boundary (see original boundary map) that would
free up previously allocated development credits and to account for new and/or proposed land use
designations previously unaccounted for in the existing Master Development Order, With the 2004
SEOPW Redevelopment Plan moving through the approval process at the City of Miami, redevelopment
poised to take place within the SEOPW redevelopment boundaries, and with the Downtown Development
Authority's recent amendment to its Downtown DRI, it is both timely and appropriate for the SEOPW CRA
to update its existing Development of Regional Impact and to look at including the expanded SEOPW
boundaries within the DRI boundaries.
Pursuant to resolution, the build -out dates for Increments I, 11 and III were extended as follows:
• Increment I was extended from 1997 to March 21, 2005
• Increment 11 extended to March 21, 2015
• Master Development Order extended to March 22, 2013
• Master Development Order expires on December 3,1 2017
