Enhancement Team
Downtown Enhancement Team Program - Proposal;
In June 2008 the Ornni CRA approved Resolution CRA-R-08-0036 granting $55,000 to the
Miami DDA for extension of its Downtown Enhancement Team program to serve the Media
and Entertainment District within the Omni CRA area. Six days each week, this four -
member crew provides litter and trash clean-up, graffiti removal, and landscape
installation and maintenance in the vicinity of the Adrienne Arsht Center for the
Performing Arts, including nearby parking lots and 1-395 access ramps.
This project directly supports the objective of the Omni Area Redevelopment Plan to
"create the image of a desirable high quality 'uptown' district with an attractive
appearance, a 24-hour activity pattern, and a perception of safety and security." Response
to the DET program has been overwhelmingly positive.
This proposal seeks funding to continue DET team service in the Media and Entertainment
District throughout FY 2009-10.
