Management and Board Members
City of Miami Omni Community
Redevelopment Agency
Miami, Florida
Dear Management and Board Members:
We are pleased to present the results of our audit of the basic financial statements of the City of Miami
Omni Community Redevelopment Agency (the "Agency") for the year ended September 30, 2017.
This report summarizes our audits, the scope of our engagement, and key observations and findings from
our audit procedures for the year ended September 30, 2017. This report also contains the communications
required by our professional standards and by Government Auditing Standards.
The audit was designed to express an opinion on the Agency's 2017 basic financial statements. In
accordance with professional standards, we obtained a sufficient understanding of internal control to plan
the audits and to determine the nature, timing, and extent of tests to be performed. However, we were not
engaged to and we did not perform an audit of internal control over financial reporting.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of those charged with governance, and is not
intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
We appreciate this opportunity to meet with you to discuss the contents of this report, and to answer any
questions that you may have about this report or any other audit -related matters. If you have any questions,
please contact Richie C. Tandoc, Partner in charge of the audit, at (305) 269-8633, ext. 8016.
Very truly yours,

Omni Community Redevelopment Agency
2017 Audit Results and Required Communications
Generally Accepted Auditing Standards and Government Auditing Standards require the auditor to communicate
certain matters to those charged with governance that may assist in overseeing management's financial reporting and
disclosure process. Below is a summary of these required communications, and our response to each, as they apply to
the Agency as of and for the fiscal year ended September 30 2017.
Required Communication
Respray
Auditors' Responsibilities Under Generally Accepted
Auditing Standards (GAAS) and Government Auditing
Standards (GAS)
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Agency's
financial statements based on our audit conducted in accordance
with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States
and Government Auditing Standards. Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.
In addition, we are required to report on the Agency's internal
control over financial reporting and on compliance and other
matters. However, providing assurance on the internal control
or compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations,
contracts, and agreements was not an objective of our audit, and
accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
We have issued an unmodified opinion (i.e. clean opinion) on
the Agency's basic financial statements for the year ended
September 30, 2017.
We have also issued our report on the Agency's internal
control over financial reporting and on compliance and other
matters for the year ended September 30, 2017.
Both reports are dated January 9, 2017.
Significant Accounting Policies
Initial selection of and changes in significant accounting
policies or their application and new accounting and reporting
standards during the year must be reported.
In addition, we must discuss our judgments about the quality,
not just the acceptability, of the accounting policies as applied
in the Agency's financial reporting.
The Agency's significant accounting policies are described in
Note 1 to the financial statements.
Accounting principles selected by management are consistent
with those prescribed by government accounting standards,
and the Agency's financial statements and related disclosures
are clearly presented in a complete manner.
Accounting Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements requires the use of
accounting estimates. We are required to inform those charged
with governance of such accounting estimates and about our
conclusions regarding the reasonableness of those estimates.
For fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, management's
judgment was called upon to establish the useful lives of
capital assets. We have determined that such estimates are
reasonable.
Methods of Accounting for Significant Unusual
Transactions and for Controversial or Emerging Areas
We are required to inform those charged with governance about
the methods used to account for significant unusual transactions
and the effects of significant accounting policies in
controversial or emerging areas for which there is a lack of
authoritative guidance or consensus.
We did not identify any significant unusual transactions by
the Agency or any significant accounting policies used by the
Agency related to controversial or emerging areas for which
there is a lack of authoritative guidance.
Significant and/or Unadjusted Audit Adjustments
We are required to inform those charged with governance about
auditor adjustments arising from the audit (whether recorded or
not) that could, in our judgment, have a significant effect,
individually or in the aggregate, on the Agency's financial
statements.
We had no significant audit adjustments during the current
year's audit. All adjustments made during the audit were
proposed by the Finance Officer, and approved by us.

any significant disagreements or difficulties encountered with
management.

any major issues discussed with management prior to retaining
us as auditors.

difficulties with management during the course of the audit.
We did not discuss any major issues with management prior
to retaining us as your auditors.
Independence

governance, at least annually, the following:
1. Disclose, in writing, all relationships between us and the
Agency and its related entities that, in our professional
judgment, may reasonably be thought to impede our
independence;

generally accepted auditing standards and Governnient
Auditing Standards; and
3. Disclose any non -audit services performed for the Agency.
2.
There are no relationships between us and the Agency
and its related entities that, in our professional judgment,
may reasonably be thought to impede our independence.
With regards to our audit of the Agency as of September

Agency, in accordance with Rule 101 of the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants' Code of
Professional Conduct, its interpretations and rulings, and
Government Auditing Standards.
We have not performed any non -audit services for the
Agency during the fiscal year ended September 30,
2017, or thereafter, except for assistance in preparing the
financial statements.
Management Letter
We are required to issue a management letter responding to
certain requirements in accordance with the Rules of the Auditor
General of the State of Florida.

operated charities in South Florida, offering humanitarian services to the indigent and homeless
population. Camillus possess a unique and highly specialized expertise in assisting chronic
homeless and offering mental health, as well as, substance abuse disorders treatment, through

shelter, specifically addresses deleterious effects to the CRA's redevelopment area.
Camillus requested aid from the CRA in the amount of $175,000 in grant funding, towards
underwriting a portion of the costs associated with the Program, and furthering its efforts
through the provision of additional services to the homeless. The Executive Director reviewed
and vetted Camillus's request, in accordance with the objectives of the Plan.

critical home repairs to make their homes healthy, safe and dry. Rebuilding's objective is to
keep such residents in their residences so they may age in place with dignity.

RE: Morgans Restaurant for relocation to �4th St. and NW 15t Ave.
To Whom It May Concern,
We are extremely excited to submit our proposal to relocate our existing
Morgans Restaurant to the designated commercial space at 14th St. and
NW 1st Ave.
Being that we already have a proven track record and concept with a
HUGE Miami following, we believe we can make an immediate positive
impact on the community with job creation, community awareness and
community safety! We are eager to get started and hope to be selected
for the Lease Agreement.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Barclay Graebner

2.6.b
Development Concept:
We propose to transform the designated commercial space into the new Morgans
Restaurant location! Our intention is to move our existing concept into the new space.
Because the Morgans Restaurant is already a very popular restaurant venue with a loyal
following, we will make an immediate positive impact on the community. We have
already built a huge "book of business" over the past 8 years and this will carry over
nicely to the new location. (We will close our current location with the opening of the
new location).
Mission Statement:
To use the freshest high quality ingredients to create delicious modern comfort food
that is economically priced, provide exceptional customer service and enrich the
community around us!
Benefits for the Community include:
Job Creation —Waiters, Busers, Chef/Cooks, Back Office, Administration, Bartenders,
Security and More!
Halo effect — New businesses bring in new clientele, fresh ideas, new commerce and
help the community grow!
Security — more foot traffic and better visibility!

Strategic & Management Approach
The Morgans Restaurant already has a loyal following and has a number of accolades
including being voted one of the Best Brunch venues in Miami. On Saturdays and
Sundays, one can witness the popularity of our Brunch with the long line that
serpentines around the building as people from all over wait patiently to sample some
of our house favorites which include the Chicken & Waffle Sandwich, Eggs Benedict,
House made Sticky Buns, etc. Our current geographic demo is customers coming from
South Beach, Aventura, North Miami, Coconut Grove, Key Biscayne and Downtown
Miami. These patrons will come to the new location. As they dine at the new Morgans,
they will discover the community and revival that is taking place. This will create a self -
feeding loop of additional new businesses, bringing in new clientele, fresh ideas, and
more commerce.
Approximately 25 full time and part time jobs will be created.
Entertainment will include weekly live bands and wine tastings.
