B ackground: Florida municipalities have undergone tremendous redevelopment in recent years. F.S. Ch.163 codifies redevelopment measures in the Community Redevelopment Act which provides for the establishment of a community redevelopment agency (CRA) and tax increment financing (TIF). These tools represent a traditional "invest and grow" approach that local governments can use to generate growth within blighted areas- The act allows a CRA to annually capture and spend a portion of the incremental increase in ad valorem tax revenues resulting from redevelopment. The tax increment --the increase in real property taxes from the difference between the taxes generated before and after the investment in real property --is used by TIF to fund a portion of the costs for improvements. Dev-Con Urban Partners & Affordable, LLC (DCUPA) intends to develop a community structure which meets and furthers the objectives of the "the Southeast Overtown Park West" (SEOPW) Community Redevelopment Complex, This plan was originally adopted by the City of Miami pursuant to city resolution R82-755.
