Enclosures: Supporting Documentation; Legislation
BACKGROUND:
It is recommended that the Board of Commissioners of the Southeast Overtown/Park West Community
Redevelopment Agency ("CRA") approve and adopt the attached Resolution authorizing the grant of a
revocable license to Exile II Entertainment, Inc. ("Club 90 Degree"), for the limited purpose of the placement of a
staircase/fire escape upon the Grand Promenade.
Club 90 Degree, at 90 N.E. 11th Street, Miami, Florida, is located along the Grand Promenade, an alleyway
owned by the CRA. In an effort to raise its maximum occupancy level, the operator of the club has requested
the CRA's permission for the placement of a staircase/fire escape at the rear portion of their facility.
The grant of revocable license will allow the CRA to maintain its ownership interest in that portion of the Grand
Promenade to be used by the club; ensure that CRA interests are protected; and allows the CRA to limit the
club's use of the Grand Promenade without conveying any interest in the land.
JUSTIFICATION:
Section 2, Goal 5/Principle 6, at pages 11 and 15, of the 2009 Southeast Overtown/Park West Redevelopment
Plan lists "the support ... of existing business and local entrepreneurs," as a stated redevelopment goal.
This Resolution carries out these objectives.
FUNDING: NO FISCAL IMPACT.
