Enclosures: RFP, List of Proposals received and
email memo MS to CW
As a re -cap, the CRA had received responses to the advertised RFP for the Commercial Building
Management of the Overtown Shopping Center. Four responses were received and were required to
provide the following information as outlined in the RFP: background information on the company,
years of experience and operation, marketing/leasing references, client references and portfolio
samples of properties of similar management, size, location and zoning type. Proposals must also
demonstrate the financial and legal ability of the management company, including information on the
financial status of the management company, a property budget consisting of a detailed pro forma
demonstrating sources and uses of funds, including funding for operations/maintenance, marketing
and a detailed statement of all financial assistance needed from any source. The list of proposers is
included as an attachment with this memo.
Based on the requirements of the RFP and after initial review of the proposals, I determined that two
of the four proposals provide documentation to substantiate that they had the most similar local
commercial building management and leasing experience to the Overtown Shopping Center. In
addition, these two companies's provided cost proposals of their fee structures proposed for our
property. After discussions with you, it was suggested that we invite the two top ranked firms for oral
discussion/presentation. The two top ranked firms prior to oral discussion/presentation were:
• Redevco Management
• NAI Miami
On June 13th, 2012, Miguel Valentin, you and I met with the top ranked firms to discuss in further
detail their proposals and the management of the Overtown Shopping Center. After the oral
discussions and careful consideration of the information presented, staff has recommended that we
negotiate an agreement with the top ranked firm, NAI Miami.
Please advise if you concur with the process and findings thus far so that we can proceed with
presentation to the Board of Directors

Background and Existing Conditions: The CRA has recently acquired this property from the City of
Miami with the intent to provide for a grocery store operation to occupy the large retail space (14,000 SF)
and to lease out the remaining space to smaller retail tenant opportunities. Currently, the building has one
existing tenant, Regions Bank that will continue to occupy their space within the facility (copy of lease to
be provided upon request). The building previously held a grocery store operation some years back but
has primarily remained vacant. The building will require on -site maintenance of the landscaping, parking
areas and general building maintenance including roofing, electrical, HVAC, plumbing, etc. The building
is located in the Overtown commercial district along NW 31cd Avenue just north of NW 14 Street.
Substantial redevelopment of the area has taken place and continues to take place including the
development of several new retail operations, park rehabilitation and residential building renovations.
There is residential density within close proximity to the property and no other large grocery store
operation exists to accommodate the residential base.
Additional Information: All available information on the referenced Property may be obtained from the
CRA at 49 N.W. 5th Street, Suite 100, Miami, Florida 33128. For further information, please contact
