The City of Miami ("City") is responsible for public safety throughout the City, which includes the Omni
Community Redevelopment Agency ("CRA") district. In September 2013 the Board of Commissioners
of the Omni CRA passed Resolution No. 13-0055, wherein the CRA is responsible for carrying out
community redevelopment activities and projects within its Redevelopment Area. In February 2008, the
City of Miami Police Department presented the CRA Board with the "Police Visibility Program," an
innovative community policing plan to address issues related to quality of life within the Omni
Redevelopment Area. The Police Visibility Program consists of enhanced police services including, but
not limited to, increased patrols, special operations, traffic details, club checks, criminal sweeps,
prostitution details, and undercover narcotics details. The CRA Boards passed and adopted Joint
Resolution No. CRA-R-08-0024, on April 28, 2008, which authorized the issuance of a grant to the city
of Miami, Florida a municipal corporation of the state of Florida, (hereinafter, "GRANTEE"), for the
Police Visibility Program within the Redevelopment Areas.
