As previously noted, Urban Philanthropies has invested over $800,000 in this project and continues to invest limited amounts to facilitate events at the site. These events promote economic development and help highlight Overtown's entertainment district. Such was the case with last week's 2KPoolparty event when over 3500 patrons came to Overtown. Unlike some events held on South Beach last weekend, this Overtown event was safe and orderly, and it was reported that all had a grand time. Moreover, we noticed that every vendor associated with this event was Black embellishing our mission of promoting Black entrepreneurship. The request is as follows: Urban Philanthropies Inc. Request for the Urban Entertainment Village Electrical and Fees Water Plumbing and fees (plus connection fees) Furniture and Fixtures Hanger Structure Main Pavillion ;Construction, Crane, and anchoring Fees Sound System 36.000.00 16,000.00 15,000.00 11,000.00 15,000.00 Raw containers (16) and storage (Sound Curtain) Astro turf ground covering (partial) 15,000.00 37,000.00 9,000.00 The Urban $ 154,000.00 CRA Interim Proposal March 21, 2019 PHILANTHROPIES 1. Electrical and Fees- Fees for installing electric to side 'A' on our site plan. To include 480 three phase power with transformer box, permits and FPL. This partial installation will allow us to have power to bar, kitchen and dining areas and other areas on side "A." 2. Water Plumbing and fees: This is for plumbing to the kitchen and bar and assumes hook up to existing services. 3. Furniture and Fixtures: To include bar and patio lighting that will allow us to open our bar for happy hour and other small events. 4. Hanger Structure Main Pavilion: This structure will connect and enclose our bar with the kitchen and dining boxes proposed for "Goodbread Alley" a new concept of Lil Greenhouse Grill to be housed at The Urban. 5. Construction Hanger and anchoring fees are general contracting fees for above. 6. Sound System- For streaming music and microphone for patio/pavilion area. 7. Raw container sound curtain- We proposed to buy 16 raw and unfinished shipping containers as a sound barrier to apartments on either side of the event area or Side "B." We deem this to be necessary in order to accommodate events after 10:30 pm on Side B. In addition, these raw containers will serve as storage for the site and an art project for local school children. The may also be used for some 'pop-up' market type events where appropriate. 8. This will purchase about 2,500 square feet of Astro turf at approximately 3.50 per sq. ft. with padding. This will cover 1,480 square feet of ground between the bar and the Kitchen, dining bar with the remaining covering the outside eating area proposed by Goodbread Alley. The Urban CRA Interim Proposal March 21, 2019 ANTHROPIES We are currently employing or causing to be employed 2 maintenance persons with 3 additional part time workers, and several security personnel from Overtown. This would allow us to employ another 5 bar tenders along with the personnel that Goodbread Alley plans to hire. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for your consideration. I believe that The Urban holds significant promise of becoming one of Overtown's premier venues in the Entertainment District. Sincerely, Philip Bacon President Urban Philanthropies, Inc.
