Background of Item: Connect Capital is an initiative of CCI designated to help communities attract and deploy capital at scale and in alignment with community priorities to improve the health and well-being of residents. Connect Capital is organized into two phases. Phase 1, an intensive four -month engagement during which CCI provided participating teams with coaching and the opportunity to attend a two-day Learning Community. The goal of Phase 2 is intended to support concrete action rather than initial exploration or planning. On April 30, 2018, the City of Miami submitted a Request for Proposal of the Connect Capital Phase 2 initiative. On May 21, the CCI informed the City that the proposal has been recommended for Connect Capital Phase 2 funding. The award of $200,000.00 is expected to commence as of July 1, 2018 and run for 24 months. The grant award in the amount of $200,00.00 will allow the Department to hire a Housing Development Coordinator for two years to help create and prioritize a pipeline of feasible housing projects by working closely with neighborhood groups and developers. The City Administration recommends the acceptance of the grant award in the amount of $200,000.00 for the Connect Capital Phase 2 program.
