The attached Resolution of the Board of Commissioners of the Southeast Overtown/Park West
Community Redevelopment Agency ("CRA") ratifies the Fifth Amendment and Sixth Amendment, and
authorizes the execution of the Seventh Amendment to the Development Agreement between the CRA
and Downtown Retail Associations, LLC ("Developer"), which was previously executed by the Executive
Director.
On July 26, 2017, the CRA issued a Request for Proposals ("RFP") 17-02 for the disposition and
development of Block 55 located at 249 NW 6th Street, Miami, FL (Folio #: 01-0105-050-1120). The
CRA received two (2) responses to RFP 17-02. On March 1, 2018, the CRA Board of Commissioners
(the "Board"), by Resolution CRA-18-0009, accepted and authorized the selection committee's
recommendation to select Downtown Retail Associates, LLC as the top -ranked proposer to develop Block
55. On September 24, 2018, the Board authorized the acceptance of certain negotiated terms in the
Development Agreement between the CRA and the Developer. On October 1, 2018 the Block 55
Development Agreement was executed, which was amended by Amendment dated November 21, 2018,
by Second Amendment dated April 17, 2019, by the Third Amendment dated September 26, 2019 and by
the Fourth Amendment dated as of December 20, 2019 (collectively, the "Development Agreement"), all
of which have been previously approved by the Board.
Block 55 will be developed as a mixed -use development consisting of not less than 250,000 square feet of
retail, office, restaurant and entertainment uses, and not less than 500 residential units (collectively the
"Project"), with twenty percent (20%) of the units to be provided to residents earning fifty percent (50%)
or less of the Miami -Dade County Area Median Income.
The Fifth Amendment to the Development Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit "A", contains, in part,
the following modifications to the Development Agreement:
Packet Pg. 16

• Payment of Incremental Tax Increment Financing ("TIF"): As a development incentive, the CRA
shall pay to Developer an incentive payment equal to up to 70% of the incremental TIF generated
from this specific Project only, and with use limitations.
• Affordable Housing: The Developer has agreed that not less than twenty percent (20%) of the
residential units in the Project or approximately 154 units, consisting of a mix of studio and one -

1,000 square feet of rentable space at $1.00 per year for use as a police substation Neighborhood

• Extension Fee Dates: The Fifth Amendment provides that the Second Closing Extension Deposit
in the amount of $500,000, which is credited against the purchase price, and the Second
Additional Consideration in the amount of $300,000, which does not get credited against the
purchase price, shall be due on or prior to the Closing Date of March 31, 2020 instead of March
20, 2020.
• Assignment Prior to Closing: Developer has the right to assign the Development Agreement to,
and the CRA agrees to convey the Property to, a new limited liability company to be formed to

company ("Holdings"), provided that (i) Holdings is the sole member and owner of Property
Owner, (ii) Developer owns at least 63% of the ownership interests of Holdings, (iii) an entity
controlled by David Martin and Pedro Martin ("Terra Entity") owns the balance of the ownership
interests of Holdings, (iv) Michael Swerdlow or an entity he controls retains all decision making

provides copies of the organizational documents of Property Owner and Holdings confirming the
ownership and management and (vi) Terra Entity confirms that it has not paid cash consideration
for its interest in Holdings, provided that Terra Entity may receive a credit to its capital account
for expenses paid by Terra Entity.
• Community Development District: The CRA has agreed to support a community development
district being formed with respect to the Project.
The Sixth Amendment, attached hereto as Exhibit "B", dated as of March 31, 2020, and contains, in part,
the following modifications:
• Extension Fees: The Sixth Amendment provides that the Second Closing Extension Deposit in
the amount of $500,000, which is credited to the purchase price, and the Second Additional
Consideration in the amount of $300,000, which does not get credited to the purchase price, shall
be paid on the Closing Date instead of March 20, 2020. Michael Swerdlow has guaranteed these
payments.
• Closing Date: The Closing Date has been extended to April 30, 2020; however (i) the Developer
shall have the right to extend the Closing Date through June 1, 2020, and if closing has not
occurred on or before April 30, 2020, in which case, an extension fee of $100,000, which is not
credited to the Purchase Price, shall be earned by the CRA, and Developer shall pay the above
Page 2 of 7
Packet Pg. 17
3.2
extension fee on the Closing Date, as the same may be extended; and (ii) the Developer shall
have the additional right to extend the Closing Date through June 30, 2020, conditioned delivery
of written notice (which notice may be by email) to the CRA on or before June 1, 2020 and upon
Developer paying to the CRA an additional extension fee of $100,00, which is not credited to the
Purchase Price and which shall be earned by the CRA as of the date of such extension but payable
on the Closing Date.
• Assignment Prior to Closing: The assignment provisions of the Fifth Amendment are amended
and restated so that the Developer has the right to assign the Development Agreement to, and the
CRA agrees to convey the Property to, a new limited liability company to be formed to own the
Property ("Property Owner"), and a new limited liability company to be the sole member and
owner of the Property Owner ("Member"), provided that Property Owner is one hundred percent
(100%) owned by Member and Member is one hundred percent (100%) owned by Developer.
The CRA agrees to convey the Property to the Property Owner at closing provided that (a) the
Developer is the sole member and owner of Member, (b) Member is the sole member and owner
of Property Owner and (c) Michael Swerdlow or an entity he controls retains all decision making
with respect to Developer, Member and Property Owner, except for certain major decisions.
The Seventh Amendment, attached hereto as Exhibit "C", contains, in part, the following modifications:
• Extension of Closing Date: The Developer exercises its additional right to extend the Closing
Date through June 30, 2020 in accordance with the Sixth Amendment. The May Extension Fee
and June Extension Fee (each, as defined in the Sixth Amendment) are deemed earned by the
CRA and are payable on the Closing Date. The Developer and the CRA further agree to extend
the Closing Date through September 30, 2020; provided that closing may occur on an earlier date
at Developer's election and upon not less than ten (10) days' prior written notice to the CRA of
such earlier date.

a. To the extent Developer fails to comply with the Skilled
Laborer Participation Requirement for the Project, Developer shall pay to the CRA as a penalty
for such non-compliance (a) Ten Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($10,000.00) for each one half of
a percentage point (0.5%) below the Skilled Laborer Participation Requirement for the first one
and one-half percent (1.5%) below the Skilled Laborer Participation Requirement (b) Twenty Five
Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($25,000.00) for each additional one-half of a percentage point

CRA Board shall be binding upon the parties. Any amount of Skilled Laborer Non -Compliance
Funds not paid when due shall bear interest at 12% per annum from the date due until paid.
7.6 Failure to Comply with Minimum Hourly Construction Wage Rate
Requirement. In the event that any Contractor fails to pay the Minimum Hourly Construction
Wage Rate to any worker working on the construction of the Project, which failure is reported by
such worker to the Executive Director, the Executive Director shall investigate the report and if
the Executive Director, based upon his investigation confirms such non-compliance with the
Minimum Hourly Construction Wage Rate requirement, and that the error on the part of the
Contractor was not a de minimis miscalculation of the same, the Developer shall pay to the affected
worker(s) as a penalty the Minimum Hourly Construction Wage Rate for every hour for which
such worker was underpaid plus a twenty percent (20%) penalty (collectively the "Construction
Wage Rate Penalty"). Developer shall not receive the benefit of any credit for hourly wage
payments made to such worker that did not comply with the Minimum Hourly Construction Wage
Rate requirement ("Erroneous Hourly Wage Payment"). By way of illustration, if a worker was
paid an hourly rate of Ten and No/100 Dollars ($10.00) and no health benefits were provided for
one hundred (100) hours in lieu of the Minimum Hourly Construction Wage Rate, the Construction
Wage Rate Penalty would be calculated as follows:
Construction Wage Rate Penalty _ [(Minimum Hourly Construction Labor Rate times
the Total Hours Worked) * times 120%]equals the Construction Wage Rate Penalty, which
would be in addition to the Erroneous Hourly Wage Payment worker.
For example if the Minimum Hourly Construction Wage Rate is $15.83 per hour because
no qualified health care benefits are paid and if the worker was paid Ten and °O/ioo Dollars
($10.00) an hour and no health benefits paid and the worker worked for one hundred (100)
hours, the Construction Wage Penalty would be:

Attachment: File # 7480 Exhibit A (7480 : Resolution ratifying the execution of the Fifth Amendment and Sixth Amendment, and authorizing
#73289798_v4
Packet Pg. 76
3.2.a
$15.83 x 120% x 100 hours = $1,899.60 which amount would be in addition to the
Erroneous Hourly Wage Payment previously paid to such worker.
Such Construction Wage Rate Penalty shall be due from the Developer to the underpaid worker(s)
within thirty (30) days after written demand from the Executive Director. Developer shall have
the right to dispute such demand and the findings of the Executive Director. If the Executive
Director and the Developer are not able to resolve their dispute within thirty (30) days the dispute
shall be submitted to the CRA Board for determination which determination shall be binding on
the parties.
The Construction Wage Rate Penalty is not intended to waive any worker's rights to seek any and
all available legal relief available under applicable law. In the event a worker is granted a monetary
award against the Developer or its Contractor(s) in some other forum ("Monetary Award"), any
Construction Wage Rate Penalty otherwise due and owing shall be reduced by the amount of any
such Monetary Award previously paid to such worker.
7.7 Failure to Comply with Responsible Wage Requirement. In the event that
any Contractor fails to pay the Responsible Wage to any worker working on the construction of
the Project within the labor classifications set forth in Sections 7.4 (i) (a) and 7.4 (i) (b), above,
which failure is reported by such worker to the Executive Director, the Executive Director shall
investigate the report and if the Executive Director, based upon his investigation, confirms such
non-compliance with the Responsible Wage requirement, and that the error on the part of the
Contractor was not a de minimis miscalculation of the same, the Developer shall pay to the affected
worker(s) as a penalty the Responsible Wage for every hour for which such worker was underpaid
plus a twenty percent (20%) penalty (the "Responsible Wage Penalty"). Developer shall not
receive the benefit of any credit for hourly wage payments made to such worker that did not
comply with the Responsible Wage requirement ("Erroneous Responsible Wage Payment"). By
way of illustration, if a worker was paid an hourly rate of Twenty and No/100 Dollars ($20.00)
and no health benefits were provided for one hundred (100) hours in lieu of the Responsible Wage
of, for example, $38.46, plus benefits shown on the Schedule, the Responsible Wage Penalty
would be calculated as follows:
Responsible Wage Penalty = [(Responsible Wage, including all required benefits, times
the Total Hours Worked times 120% equals the Responsible Wage Penalty, which amount
could be in addition to the Responsible Wage Penalty which amount would be in addition
to the Erroneous Responsible Wage Payment previously paid to such worker, previously
paid to such worker.
For example if the Responsible Wage is $38.46 plus benefits shown on the Schedule and
the worker was paid Twenty Dollars ($20.00) an hour and no benefits were paid and the
worker worked one hundred (100) hours, the Responsible Wage Penalty would be:
$38.46 + the amount of benefits shown on the Schedule (assumed to total $6.00 for this
example) x 120% x 100 hours = $5,335.20 which amount would be in addition to the
Erroneous Responsible Wage Payment previously paid to such worker.
Such Responsible Wage Penalty shall be due from the Developer to the underpaid workers(s)
within thirty (30) days after written demand from the Executive Director. Developer shall have

the right to dispute such demand and the findings of the Executive Director. If the Executive
Director and the Developer are not able to resolve their dispute within thirty (30) days the dispute
shall be submitted to the CRA Board from for resolution which resolution shall be binding on the
parties.
The Responsible Wage Penalty is not intended to waive any Electrical Worker's or Plumbing
Worker's rights to seek any and all available relief available under applicable law. In the event
any Electrical Worker or Plumbing Worker is granted a Monetary Award against the Developer or
its Contractor(s) in some other forum, any Responsible Wage Penalty otherwise due and owing
shall be reduced by the amount of any such Monetary Award previously paid to such Electrical
Worker or Plumbing Worker.
7.8 Employment Advertisement & Notice. With respect to the construction of
the Project, Developer shall:

through other job outreach websites, organizations, and efforts referenced hereinabove; and
(iii) Require the General Contractor to place weekly radio
commercials on either Hot 105 or 99JAMZ to inform residents of available job opportunities and
upcoming job fairs not less than thirty (30) days prior to and through the date of construction

retain, prior to the issuance of any construction permits for the Project, a firm to review the
Participation Reports submitted by the Developer and audit the same, as well as audit Developer's
compliance with this Agreement (the "Compliance Monitoring Contract"). The Developer shall
reimburse the CRA on a monthly basis for the costs incurred by the CRA under the Compliance
Monitoring Contract, which reimbursements paid to the CRA shall not exceed Fifteen Thousand
and No/100 Dollars ($15,000.00) per month and One Hundred Eighty Thousand and No/100

applicable payment obligation. If any payment due pursuant to this Section 10 is not made within
thirty (30) days of when due the CRA may offset the amounts due against the Incentive Payment.

Developer within thirty (30) days of written notice from the CRA, or, if by reason of the nature of
such default, the same cannot be cured within thirty (30) days following receipt by Developer of
written demand from the CRA to do so, Developer fails to commence curing such default within
such thirty (30) days following such written notice, or having so commenced, shall fail thereafter
to continue with diligence the curing thereof and, in any event, fails to cure such default within a
reasonable time after receipt of notice of such default, whichever is earlier, the CRA may pursue
all remedies available at law or in equity to enforce the tettiis and provisions of this Covenant,
including, without limitation, specific performance; provided, however, with respect to
Developer's failure to comply with the terms of (a) Section 4.1, as may be extended pursuant to
Sections 4.2 and 4.3, the CRA's remedies shall be limited to a suit to collect the unpaid amount
and the enforcement of its lien rights as provided in Section 10, for non-payment of any amount
due pursuant to the terms of Sections 4.4 and 4.5 or offset the amount due from the Incentive
Payments, (b) Section 7.2.1, the CRA's remedies shall be limited to a suit to collect the unpaid

amount due pursuant to Section 7.5.3, or offset the amount due from the Incentive Payment, (c)
Section 7.2.3, the CRA's remedies shall be limited to a suit to collect the unpaid amount and the
enforcement of its lien rights as provided in Section 10 for non-payment of any amount due
pursuant to the terms of Section 7.5.4, or offset the amount due from the Incentive Payment, (d)
Section 7.2.3, the CRA's remedies shall be limited to a suit to collect the unpaid amount and the
enforcement of its lien rights as provided in Section 10 for non-payment of any amount due
pursuant to the teinis of Section 7.5.2, or offset the amount due from the Incentive Payment, (e)
Section 7.3, the CRA's sole remedies will be to enforce specific performance of the terms of
Section 7.6, (f) Section 7.4, the CRA's sole remedy will be to enforce specific performance of the
terms of Section 7.7, (g) Section 7.9, the CRA's remedies shall be limited to a suit to collect the
unpaid amount and the enforcement of its lien rights as provided in Section 10 for non-payment
of any amount due pursuant to Section 7.9 or offset the amount due from the Incentive Payment,
and (h) Section 14, the CRA's remedies shall be limited to a suit to collect the unpaid amount and
enforcement of its lien rights as provided in Section 10 for non-payment of any amount due
pursuant to Section 14 or offset the amount due from the Incentive Payment. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, following Completion and payment to the CRA of all
amounts due under Sections 4.4, 4.5, 7.5.2, 7.5.3, 7.5.4, 7.9 and following any partial assignment
of the right to receive any Incentive Payment permitted by Section 12.2.2, the CRA shall only
exercise its remedies against a defaulting owner of the Project with respect to Incentive Payments
due to such defaulting owner. For example, if owner A owns the Office Component and has been
assigned the Incentive Payment for the Office Component and owner B owns the Retail Space and
has been assigned the Incentive Payment for the Retail Space, and owner A defaults in its
obligations under Section 14 of this Agreement and as a result of such default, the CRA has the
right to right to offset any amounts owed to the CRA under Section 14 of this Agreement from the
Incentive Payment, the CRA shall only offset amounts owed by owner A of the Office Component
against the Incentive Payment due to owner A of the Office Component and shall not offset any
amounts owed by owner A under Section 14 of this Agreement against the Incentive Payment due
to owner B or any other owner within portion of the Project. For the avoidance of any doubt if
Developer has not assigned the Incentive Payment with respect to a Component and the owner of
that Component defaults in its obligation under Section 14 of this Agreement the CRA shall have
the right to offset any amount owed to the CRA under Section 14 of this Agreement by the owner

of the Component who is in default solely against the Incentive Payment due Developer derived
from that Component.
12. PROJECT INCREMENTAL TIF.
12.1 Projected Incremental TIF. Developer acknowledges and agrees that
Developer shall bear the entire risk under this Covenant if the Project is valued at less than
anticipated by the Developer and/or is not developed within the time frame anticipated by the
Developer resulting in Incentive Payment payable by the CRA pursuant to this Covenant being
less than anticipated by Developer. Developer acknowledges and agrees that the CRA shall have
no liability to Developer if the Incentive Payment as estimated by Developer proves not to be
accurate for any reason and same shall not relieve the Developer or the CRA from their respective
obligations under this Covenant. Developer acknowledges and agrees that the CRA has made no
representation to the Developer regarding the amount of Incremental TIF which may be generated
by the Project and Developer is relying solely on its own projections of the Incremental TIF which
will be generated by the Project.
12.2 Development Incentive. Subject to CRA Budget Approval by the CRA
Board, City Approval and County Approval, on an annual basis in all cases, as an inducement to
develop the Project, the CRA agrees to pay Developer a percentage of Incremental TIF as follows:

year commencing after the Base Year and continuing throughout the Term of this Covenant,
subject to reduction under Section 12.2.2 and Section 12.2.3 below, the CRA shall pay to

"Incentive Payment"). All Incentive Payments shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days
of the CRA's receipt of Incremental TIF.
12.2.2 Incentive Payments After Assignment or Sale. Developer, in its sole
and absolute discretion, may collaterally assign and reassign the Incentive Payment or any portion
thereof to any lender providing financing for the Project or any Component thereof. Developer,
in its sole and absolute discretion, may also assign the Incentive Payment to any purchaser all of
Developer's entire interest in the Project or the purchaser of all of Developer's interest in any of
the Component(s) thereof or to a community development district acquiring any Component of
the Project at any time or from time to time upon written notice given to the CRA. For the
avoidance of any doubt, except with respect to a collateral assignment to a lender, Developer must
assign the entire Incentive TIF with respect to the entire Project or the entire Incentive TIF with
respect to any Component thereof which Developer has elected to assign in whole but not in part.
Partial assignments of the Incentive TIF to the owner of a Component are not permitted. Each
owner of a Component shall also have the right to assign the Incentive Payment with respect to
such Component to its successor owner of such Component in connection with a sale of such
Component. Any such notice of assignment shall indicate: (i) the name of the assignee and the
assignee's contact information, (ii) the Component of the Project transferred to the assignee for
which the assignee shall be entitled to the Incentive Payment for such Component, and (iii) any
other terms or provisions applicable thereto and mutually agreed to as between Developer and the
assignee (the "Assignment Notice"). Any such assignee must assume the obligation of the
Developer or such other assignor to utilize the Incentive Payment in accordance with the

provisions of Section 12.2.4 of this Agreement. Any assignment by Developer of its rights to the
Incentive Payment shall not release Developer of its duties and obligations under this Covenant.
12.2.3 Reductions of Incentive Payments. If the entire Project is not
Substantially Completed and on the Tax Rolls on or before January 1, 2024 as such date is extended

for or the Term of this Covenant. If the entire Project is not Substantially Completed and on the
Tax Rolls by January 1, 2025 as such date is extended as a result of Unavoidable Delays, the
Incentive Payment shall be reduced by twenty percent (20%) for the Term of this Covenant. If the
entire Project is not Substantially Completed by January 1, 2027 as such date is extended as a
result of Unavoidable Delays, the CRA shall not be obligated to make any Incentive Payments to
the Developer.
12.2.4 Limitation on Use of Incentive Payments. Incentive Payments paid
during the Term of this Covenant shall be used for the sole and exclusive purpose of paying
and/or reimbursing the costs of the construction, maintenance, operation, and debt service/debt
issuance costs of the Project, to the extent such payments are a permitted use of TIF Increment
pursuant to Chapter 163 Part III, Florida Statute.
13. SUBORDINATION OF INCENTIVE PAYMENT.
13.1 Developer acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the CRA under
this Covenant to make Incentive Payments hereunder are junior and subordinate to the obligations
of the CRA to pay debt service with respect to any bonds now existing issued by the CRA or any
bonds now existing or hereafter issued by the City and secured a pledge by the CRA of tax
increment funds including, without limitation, bonds issued by the City pursuant to the terms of
the Interlocal Agency Agreement effective November 8, 2016 between the City, the CRA and the
South Florida Regional Transportation Authority obligating the CRA to pledge Incremental TIF
with respect to a bond issue by the City (collectively the "Bond Obligations") and junior and
subordinate to the payments to be made in connection with the grant to be made by the CRA in
connection with "Mama Hattie" and the Grant Agreement, as amended, by and between the City
and the CRA and with respect to the Gibson Park (collectively, the "Grant Obligations"), which
Grant Obligations are more fully described in Exhibit "G". Under no circumstances shall the
CRA be obligated to make Incentive Payments from its general revenues or any other sources if
Increment TIF is unavailable after the CRA makes all required payments with respect to the Bond
Obligations and the Grant Obligations. To the extent no Incremental TIF or only a portion of the
Incremental TIF is available to pay the CRA's obligations under this Covenant as a result of the
Bond Obligations and the Grant Obligations, the Incentive Payments shall be reduced to the
amount of Incremental TIF available, if any, and the shortfall shall be deferred to subsequent
year(s) to the extent available. If requested by the CRA, the Developer shall execute a
subordination agreement confirming that this Covenant is junior and subordinate to any Bond
Obligations and Grant Obligations within ten (10) business days of written request by the CRA.
13.2 Pledge of TIF Revenues. In the event the CRA issues additional bonds
subsequent to the Effective Date, the CRA covenants and agrees not to pledge the Incremental TIF
derived from the Project which will be payable to Developer under this Covenant as collateral for
such bonds.

13.3 Additional Agreements Regarding Use of Incremental TIF. Developer
acknowledges and agrees that nothing contained in this Covenant shall be deemed or construed to •o
prevent the CRA from entering into agreements similar to Section 12 of this Covenant (each a
"TIF Agreement") pursuant to which the CRA commits to pay such developers a portion of the
Incremental TIF generated from their project within the Redevelopment Area. Developer
acknowledges and agrees that Incremental TIF generated from other projects which are subject to
TIF Agreement(s) will not be available to make up for any shortfall under Section 13.1. E
13.4 Penalties. To the extent Developer fails to pay to the CRA any amount due
under this Covenant, the CRA may set off the amount due against the Incentive Payment due
within thirty (30) days of the date due under this Covenant.

defense of such challenge provided Developer pays the cost of such defense.
16. APPROVAL OF CRA BUDGET. Developer acknowledges that no voter approval
was obtained in connection with this Covenant and that neither the City nor the County has
approved Section 12 this Covenant. In the event Section 12 of this Covenant is determined to be
unenforceable in whole or in part as a result of (i) the multi -year CRA commitment regarding the
Incentive Payments or (ii) the failure to obtain CRA Board Approval, City Approval and County
Approval of the CRA Budget including a line item for the Incentive Payment on an annual basis,

this Covenant in the event that City Approval and County Approval are not obtained.
18. NON -RECOURSE. This Covenant is non -recourse to the CRA. In the event of a
breach of this Covenant by the CRA, Developer (and only the Developer or any impacted
Assignee) may seek specific performance of this Agreement or bring an action at law which shall
be limited to recovery of any Incentive Payments due under the terms of this Covenant and in no
event shall Developer or any assignee have the right to seek damages against the CRA. Except
with respect to the CRA's rights to seek specific perfotniance of this Covenant and the CRA's
right to sue to collect any payments due from Developer to the CRA pursuant to this Covenant,
the CRA shall not have the right to seek damages against Developer.
19. RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PARTIES. This Covenant does not evidence the
creation of, nor shall it be construed as creating, a partnership or joint venture between the CRA
and Developer. No party can create any obligations or responsibility on behalf of the others or
bind the others in any manner. Each party is acting for its own account, and it has made its own
independent decisions to enter into this Covenant and as to whether the same is appropriate or
proper for it based upon its own judgment and upon advice from such advisors as it has deemed
necessary. Each party acknowledges that none of the other parties hereto is acting as a fiduciary
for or an adviser to it in respect of this Covenant or any responsibility or obligation contemplated

retained consultants and professionals to assist Developer with the negotiation and execution of
this Covenant, and Developer may compensate those consultants and professionals at their
standard hourly rate for services performed, or any other method of compensation that is
considered standard and reasonable for that particular service. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, in no event shall Developer compensate any such consultant or
professional in any form that would be deemed a "bonus," "success fee" or "finder's fee" in
exchange for the CRA Board's approval of this Covenant.
22. NET OFFICE/POLICE SUBSTATION/CRA OFFICES. Developer covenants and
agrees to provide approximately one thousand (1,000) square feet of rentable space substantially
in the location shown on Exhibit "H" attached hereto (the "Office Space") with vehicular access

19
Attachment: File # 7480 Exhibit A (7480 : Resolution ratifying the execution of the Fifth Amendment and Sixth Amendment, and authorizing
#73699420_v3
Packet Pg. 128
3.2.a
Contractor was not a de minimis miscalculation of the same, the Developer shall pay to the affected
worker(s) as a penalty the Minimum Hourly Construction Wage Rate for every hour for which
such worker was underpaid plus a twenty percent (20%) penalty (collectively the "Construction
Wage Rate Penalty"). Developer shall not receive the benefit of any credit for hourly wage
payments made to such worker that did not comply with the Minimum Hourly Construction Wage
Rate requirement ("Erroneous Hourly Wage Payment"). By way of illustration, if a worker was
paid an hourly rate of Ten and No/100 Dollars ($10.00) and no health benefits were provided for
one hundred (100) hours in lieu of the Minimum Hourly Construction Wage Rate, the Construction
Wage Rate Penalty would be calculated as follows:
Construction Wage Rate Penalty = [(Minimum Hourly Construction Labor Rate times
the Total Hours Worked) * times 120%] equals the Construction Wage Rate Penalty, which
amount would be in addition to the Erroneous Hourly Wage Payment previously paid to
such worker.
For example if the Minimum Hourly Constructions Wage Rate is $15.83 per hour because
no qualified health care benefits are paid and if the worker was paid ten and no/100 Dollars
($10.00) an hour and no health benefits paid and the worker worked for one hundred (100)
hours, the Construction Wage Penalty would be:
$15.83 x 120% x 100 hours = $1,899.60 which amount would be in addition to the
Erroneous Hourly Wage Payment previously paid to such worker.
Such Construction Wage Rate Penalty shall be due from the Developer to the underpaid worker(s)
within thirty (30) days after written demand from the Executive Director. Developer shall have
the right to dispute such demand and the findings of the Executive Director. If the Executive
Director and the Developer are not able to resolve their dispute within thirty (30) days the dispute
shall be submitted to the CRA Board for determination which determination shall be binding on
the parties.
The Construction Wage Rate Penalty is not intended to waive any worker's rights to seek any and
all available legal relief available under applicable law. In the event a worker is granted a monetary
award against the Developer or its Contractor(s) in some other forum ("Monetary Award"), any
Construction Wage Rate Penalty otherwise due and owing shall be reduced by the amount of any
such Monetary Award previously paid to such worker.
7.7 Failure to Comply with Responsible Wage Requirement. In the event that
any Contractor fails to pay the Responsible Wage to any worker working on the construction of
the Project within the labor classifications set forth in Sections 7.4 (i) (a) and 7.4 (i) (b), above,
which failure is reported by such worker to the Executive Director, the Executive Director shall
investigate the report and if the Executive Director, based upon his investigation, confirms such
non-compliance with the Responsible Wage requirement, and that the error on the part of the
Contractor was not a de minimis miscalculation of the same, the Developer shall pay to the affected
worker(s) as a penalty the Responsible Wage for every hour for which such worker was underpaid
plus a twenty percent (20%) penalty (the "Responsible Wage Penalty"). Developer shall not
receive the benefit of any credit for hourly wage payments made to such worker that did not
comply with the Responsible Wage requirement ("Erroneous Responsible Wage Payment"). By
way of illustration, if a worker was paid an hourly rate of Twenty and No/100 Dollars ($20.00)
20
Attachment: File # 7480 Exhibit A (7480 : Resolution ratifying the execution of the Fifth Amendment and Sixth Amendment, and authorizing

Packet Pg. 129
3.2.a
and no health benefits were provided for one hundred (100) hours in lieu of the Responsible Wage
of, for example, $38.46, plus benefits shown on the Schedule, the Responsible Wage Penalty
would be calculated as follows:
Responsible Wage Penalty = [(Responsible Wage, including all required benefits, times
the Total Hours Worked) times 120%] equals the Responsible Wage Penalty, which
amount would be in addition to the Erroneous Responsible Wage Payment previously paid
to such worker.
For example if the Responsible Wage is $38.46 plus benefits shown on the Schedule and
the worker was paid Twenty Dollars ($20.00) an hour and no benefits were paid and the
worker worked one hundred (100) hours, the Responsible Wage Penalty would be:
$38.46 + the amount of benefits shown on the Schedule (assumed to total $6.00 for this
example) x 120% x 100 hours = $5,335.20 which amount would be in addition to the
Erroneous Responsible Wage Payment previously paid to such worker.
Such Responsible Wage Penalty shall be due from the Developer to the underpaid workers(s)
within thirty (30) days after written demand from the Executive Director. Developer shall have
the right to dispute such demand and the findings of the Executive Director. If the Executive
Director and the Developer are not able to resolve their dispute within thirty (30) days the dispute
shall be submitted to the CRA Board from for resolution which resolution shall be binding on the
parties.
The Responsible Wage Penalty is not intended to waive any Electrical Worker's or Plumbing
Worker's rights to seek any and all available relief available under applicable law. In the event
any Electrical Worker or Plumbing Worker is granted a Monetary Award against the Developer or
its Contractor(s) in some other forum, any Responsible Wage Penalty otherwise due and owing
shall be reduced by the amount of any such Monetary Award previously paid to such Electrical
Worker or Plumbing Worker.
7.8 Employment Advertisement & Notice. With respect to the construction of
the Project, Developer shall:
(i) Require its General Contractor and all subcontractors to
electronically post job opportunities in established job outreach websites and organizations,
including, without limitation, CareerSource South Florida, and similar programs in order to attract
as many eligible applicants for such jobs as reasonably possible;
(ii) Require the General Contractor to place a full -page weekly
advertisement in the Miami Times newspaper to inform residents of available job opportunities
and any upcoming job fairs not less than thirty (30) days prior to and through the date of
construction commencement of the Project. This shall be in addition to any advertisements done
through other job outreach websites, organizations, and efforts referenced hereinabove; and
(iii) Require the General Contractor to place weekly radio

written demand from the CRA to do so, Developer fails to commence curing such default within
such thirty (30) days following such written notice, or having so commenced, shall fail thereafter
to continue with diligence the curing thereof and, in any event, fails to cure such default within a
reasonable time after receipt of notice of such default, whichever is earlier, the CRA may pursue
all remedies available at law or in equity to enforce the terms and provisions of this Covenant,
including, without limitation, specific performance; provided, however, with respect to
Developer's failure to comply with the terms of (a) Section 4.1, as may be extended pursuant to
Sections 4.2 and 4.3, the CRA's remedies shall be limited to a suit to collect the unpaid amount
and the enforcement of its lien rights as provided in Section 10, for non-payment of any amount
due pursuant to the terms of Sections 4.4 and 4.5 or offset the amount due from the Incentive
Payments, (b) Section 7.2.1, the CRA's remedies shall be limited to a suit to collect the unpaid

enforcement of its lien rights as provided in Section 10 for non-payment of any amount due
pursuant to Section 14 or offset the amount due from the Incentive Payment. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, following Completion and payment to the CRA of all
amounts due under Sections 4.4, 4.5, 7.5.2, 7.5.3, 7.5.4, 7.9 and following any partial assignment
of the right to receive any Incentive Payment peimuitted by Section 12.2.2, the CRA shall only
exercise its remedies against a defaulting owner of the Project with respect to Incentive Payments
due to such defaulting owner. For example, if owner A owns the Office Component and has been
assigned the Incentive Payment for the Office Component and owner B owns the Retail Space and
has been assigned the Incentive Payment for the Retail Space, and owner A defaults in its
obligations under Section 14 of this Agreement and as a result of such default, the CRA has the
right to right to offset any amounts owed to the CRA under Section 14 of this Agreement from the
Incentive Payment, the CRA shall only offset amounts owed by owner A of the Office Component
against the Incentive Payment due to owner A of the Office Component and shall not offset any
amounts owed by owner A under Section 14 of this Agreement against the Incentive Payment due
to owner B or any other owner within portion of the Project. For the avoidance of any doubt if
Developer has not assigned the Incentive Payment with respect to a Component and the owner of
that Component defaults in its obligation under Section 14 of this Agreement the CRA shall have
the right to offset any amount owed to the CRA under Section 14 of this Agreement by the owner
of the Component who is in default solely against the Incentive Payment due Developer derived
from that Component.
12. PROJECT INCREMENTAL TIF.
12.1 Projected Incremental TIF. Developer acknowledges and agrees that
Developer shall bear the entire risk under this Covenant if the Project is valued at less than
anticipated by the Developer and/or is not developed within the time frame anticipated by the
Developer resulting in Incentive Payment payable by the CRA pursuant to this Covenant being
less than anticipated by Developer. Developer acknowledges and agrees that the CRA shall have
no liability to Developer if the Incentive Payment as estimated by Developer proves not to be
accurate for any reason and same shall not relieve the Developer or the CRA from their respective
obligations under this Covenant. Developer acknowledges and agrees that the CRA has made no
representation to the Developer regarding the amount of Incremental TIF which may be generated
by the Project and Developer is relying solely on its own projections of the Incremental TIF which
will be generated by the Project.
12.2 Development Incentive. Subject to CRA Budget Approval by the CRA
Board, City Approval and County Approval, on an annual basis in all cases, as an inducement to
develop the Project, the CRA agrees to pay Developer a percentage of Incremental TIF as follows:
12.2.1 Payment of Incremental TIF. On an annual basis for each calendar
year commencing after the Base Year and continuing throughout the Term of this Covenant,
subject to reduction under Section 12.2.2 and Section 12.2.3 below, the CRA shall pay to
Developer an incentive payment equal to Seventy percent (70%) of the Incremental TIF (the
"Incentive Payment"). All Incentive Payments shall be due and payable within thirty (30) days
of the CRA's receipt of Incremental TIF.

12.2.2 Incentive Payments After Assignment or Sale. Developer, in its sole
and absolute discretion, may collaterally assign and reassign the Incentive Payment or any portion
thereof to any lender providing financing for the Project or any Component thereof. Developer,
in its sole and absolute discretion, may also assign the Incentive Payment to any purchaser all of
Developer's entire interest in the Project or the purchaser of all of Developer's interest in any of
the Component(s) thereof or to a community development district acquiring any Component of
the Project at any time or from time to time upon written notice given to the CRA. For the
avoidance of any doubt, except with respect to a collateral assignment to a lender, Developer must
assign the entire Incentive TIF with respect to the entire Project or the entire Incentive TIF with
respect to any Component thereof which Developer has elected to assign in whole but not in part.
Partial assignments of the Incentive TIF to the owner of a Component are not permitted. Each
owner of a Component shall also have the right to assign the Incentive Payment with respect to
such Component to its successor owner of such Component in connection with a sale of such
Component. Any such notice of assignment shall indicate: (i) the name of the assignee and the
assignee's contact information, (ii) the Component of the Project transferred to the assignee for
which the assignee shall be entitled to the Incentive Payment for such Component, and (iii) any
other terms or provisions applicable thereto and mutually agreed to as between Developer and the
assignee (the "Assignment Notice"). Any such assignee must assume the obligation of the
Developer or such other assignor to utilize the Incentive Payment in accordance with the
provisions of Section 12.2.4 of this Agreement. Any assignment by Developer of its rights to the
Incentive Payment shall not release Developer of its duties and obligations under this Covenant.
12.2.3 Reductions of Incentive Payments. If the entire Project is not
Substantially Completed and on the Tax Rolls on or before January 1, 2024 as such date is extended

for or the Term of this Covenant. If the entire Project is not Substantially Completed and on the
Tax Rolls by January 1, 2025 as such date is extended as a result of Unavoidable Delays, the
Incentive Payment shall be reduced by twenty percent (20%) for the Term of this Covenant. If the
entire Project is not Substantially Completed by January 1, 2027 as such date is extended as a
result of Unavoidable Delays, the CRA shall not be obligated to make any Incentive Payments to
the Developer.
12.2.4 Limitation on Use of Incentive Payments. Incentive Payments paid
during the Term of this Covenant shall be used for the sole and exclusive purpose of paying
and/or reimbursing the costs of the construction, maintenance, operation, and debt service/debt
issuance costs of the Project, to the extent such payments are a permitted use of TIF Increment
pursuant to Chapter 163 Part III, Florida Statute.
13. SUBORDINATION OF INCENTIVE PAYMENT.
13.1 Developer acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of the CRA under
this Covenant to make Incentive Payments hereunder are junior and subordinate to the obligations
of the CRA to pay debt service with respect to any bonds now existing issued by the CRA or any
bonds now existing or hereafter issued by the City and secured a pledge by the CRA of tax
increment funds including, without limitation, bonds issued by the City pursuant to the temius of
the Interlocal Agency Agreement effective November 8, 2016 between the City, the CRA and the
South Florida Regional Transportation Authority obligating the CRA to pledge Incremental TIF

with respect to a bond issue by the City (collectively the "Bond Obligations") and junior and
subordinate to the payments to be made in connection with the grant to be made by the CRA in
connection with "Mama Hattie" and the Grant Agreement, as amended, by and between the City
and the CRA and with respect to the Gibson Park (collectively, the "Grant Obligations"), which
Grant Obligations are more fully described in Exhibit "G". Under no circumstances shall the
CRA be obligated to make Incentive Payments from its general revenues or any other sources if
Increment TIF is unavailable after the CRA makes all required payments with respect to the Bond
Obligations and the Grant Obligations. To the extent no Incremental TIF or only a portion of the
Incremental TIF is available to pay the CRA's obligations under this Covenant as a result of the
Bond Obligations and the Grant Obligations, the Incentive Payments shall be reduced to the
amount of Incremental TIF available, if any, and the shortfall shall be deferred to subsequent
year(s) to the extent available. If requested by the CRA, the Developer shall execute a
subordination agreement confirming that this Covenant is junior and subordinate to any Bond
Obligations and Grant Obligations within ten (10) business days of written request by the CRA.
13.2 Pledge of TIF Revenues. In the event the CRA issues additional bonds
subsequent to the Effective Date, the CRA covenants and agrees not to pledge the Incremental TIF
derived from the Project which will be payable to Developer under this Covenant as collateral for
such bonds.
13.3 Additional Agreements Regarding Use of Incremental TIF. Developer
acknowledges and agrees that nothing contained in this Covenant shall be deemed or construed to
prevent the CRA from entering into agreements similar to Section 12 of this Covenant (each a
"TIF Agreement") pursuant to which the CRA commits to pay such developers a portion of the
Incremental TIF generated from their project within the Redevelopment Area. Developer
acknowledges and agrees that Incremental TIF generated from other projects which are subject to
TIF Agreement(s) will not be available to make up for any shortfall under Section 13.1.
13.4 Penalties. To the extent Developer fails to pay to the CRA any amount due
under this Covenant, the CRA may set off the amount due against the Incentive Payment due
within thirty (30) days of the date due under this Covenant.
14. TRANSFER FEE.
14.1 Transfer Prior to Completion. If, at any time prior to Completion (i) the
Developer sells the entire Project to an unrelated third party purchaser in an arm's length
transaction; (ii) the Developer sells the Retail Space, the Office Component, the Parking Garage
or the Residential Components, or any of them or any combination thereof, to an unrelated third
party purchaser in an arm's length transaction; or (iii) a Change of Control occurs, then the
Developer shall pay to the CRA a fee in an amount equal to one and one-half percent (1.5%) of
the Gross Sales Price simultaneously with the closing of such sale or Change of Control. For the
avoidance of doubt, if Developer sells the Retail Space, the Office Component, the Parking Garage
or the Residential Components, or any of them or any combination thereof, the provisions of this
Section 14.1 shall apply to each such transaction until Completion and the fee to the CRA of one
and one-half percent (1.5%) of the Gross Sales Price shall apply to each such transaction until
Completion; provided, however, in no event shall any such transfer fee be payable in connection

sells the entire Project to an unrelated third party purchaser in an arm's length transaction; (ii) the
Developer sells the Retail Space, the Office Component, the Parking Garage or the Residential
Components, or any of them or any combination thereof, to an unrelated an third party purchaser
in an arm's length transaction, or (iii) a Change of Control occurs, then the Developer shall pay
the CRA a fee in the amount of one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the Gross Sales Price
simultaneously with the closing of such sale or Change of Control. For the avoidance of doubt, if
Developer sells the Retail Space, the Office Component, the Parking Garage, or the Residential
Components, together or in a series of transactions, the one and one-half percent (1.5%) of the
Gross Sales Price shall apply to each transaction until Developer has no further interest in the
Project; provided, however, in no event shall any such transfer fee be payable in connection with
the transfer of the Parking Garage to any community development district established with respect
to the Property.
14.3 Related Transfers. For the avoidance of any doubt, should Developer
transfer its interest in the Project in whole or part to a related entity or to a third party purchaser
(including without limitation any tax -credit investor) in transaction which is not considered an
arm's length transaction, no transfer fee shall be payable, provided, however, the obligations under
this Section 14 shall be binding upon such successors and assigns and such transferee shall be
deemed the "Developer" for the purposes of this Section 14. For the avoidance of doubt, should
any transfer of membership interests in Developer, Member and/or Holdings occur, in whole or
part to a related entity (including without limitation to direct or indirect members of Developer,
Member or Holdings), no transfer fee shall be payable in connection with such transfer.
14.4 Failure to Pay. If Developer fails to pay the CRA any fees due pursuant to
this Section 14 when due, such fee shall bear interest at the rate of twelve percent (12%) until paid.
14.5 Undisclosed Transfer. If a Change of Control or sale occurs and Developer
fails to disclose such sale or Change of Control to the CRA and the CRA discovers that Developer

lien, assignment of leases and rents or security interest on or pertaining to the Property, the Project
or any Component, or any pledge, collateral assignment or encumbrance of the direct or indirect
membership interests of Developer as security for any financing of the Property, Project or any
Component thereof, or any pledge, collateral assignment or encumbrance of the direct or indirect
membership interests in Member as security for the financing of the Property, the Project or any
Component thereof, or any pledge, collateral assignment or encumbrance of the direct or indirect
membership interests in Holdings as security for the financing of the Property, the Project or any

Holdings under any pledge, collateral assignment or encumbrance of the membership interests of
Developer, Member or Holdings as security for any financing of the Property, the Project or any
Component thereof (each an "Enforcement Action"), in each case shall not be deemed a transfer
requiring payment of any transfer fee hereunder.
14.8 In the event of an Enforcement Action with respect to the Property, the
Project or any Component thereof or the transfer of membership interests in Developer, Member
or Holdings as described in Section 14.7, the party which acquires the interests of the Developer
in the Property, the Project or any Component thereof or that acquires the membership interests of
Developer, Member or Holdings shall be deemed the "Developer" for purposes of this Section 14
and the provisions of this Section 14 (including without limitation the provisions of Section 14.3)
shall apply with respect to any subsequent transfer of the Property, the Project or any Component
thereof acquired by such party in the Enforcement Action. A "Change of Control" shall be deemed
to have occurred if such party acquiring the interest of the Developer, Member or Holdings through
an Enforcement Action no longer controls all decision making by Developer, Member or Holdings,
and the fees described in this Section 14 shall be due and payable at that time with respect to the
Property, the Project or any Component thereof acquired by such party in the Enforcement Action
upon such Change of Control.
15. CHALLENGES.
15.1 No Liability. Developer hereby forever waives and releases the CRA from
any liability whatsoever, now or hereafter arising in connection with any challenge to Section 12
of this Covenant by a third party and covenant and agree not to initiate any legal proceedings
against the CRA in connection with any challenges to Section 12 of this Covenant, other than as a
result of a default by the CRA with respect to its obligations under this Covenant, for which
Developer shall have the right to sue the CRA for specific enforcement of the CRA's obligations
to pay any unpaid Incentive Payments.
15.2 Duty to Defend. In the event of any challenge to Section 12 of this
Covenant, any party in interest, at its or their sole cost and expense, may defend any such challenge
by a third party. The CRA shall cooperate with Developer and, if necessary, participate in the
defense of such challenge provided Developer pays the cost of such defense.
16. APPROVAL OF CRA BUDGET. Developer acknowledges that no voter approval
was obtained in connection with this Covenant and that neither the City nor the County has
approved Section 12 this Covenant. In the event Section 12 of this Covenant is determined to be
unenforceable in whole or in part as a result of (i) the multi -year CRA commitment regarding the
Incentive Payments or (ii) the failure to obtain CRA Board Approval, City Approval and County
Approval of the CRA Budget including a line item for the Incentive Payment on an annual basis,
Developer acknowledges and agrees that the CRA shall have no liability to Developer arising
under Section 12 of this Covenant. Developer acknowledges that this provision is a material
inducement for the CRA to enter into this Covenant.

Approval of the CRA Budget. The CRA shall have no liability to Developer under Section 12 of
this Covenant in the event that City Approval and County Approval are not obtained.

be limited to recovery of any Incentive Payments due under the terms of this Covenant and in no
event shall Developer or any assignee have the right to seek damages against the CRA. Except

creation of, nor shall it be construed as creating, a partnership or joint venture between the CRA

SOUTHEAST OVERTOWN/PARK WEST
COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM
To: Board Chair Keon Hardemon Date: May 22, 2020
and Members of the CRA Board
From: Cornelius Shiver
Executive Director
File: 7481
Subject: Resolution authorizing waiver of the
competitive bidding process as not
being practicable nor advant
Enclosures: File # 7481 Backup
BACKGROUND:
The attached Resolution of the Board of Commissioners ("Board") of the Southeast Overtown/Park West
Community Redevelopment Agency ("CRA") authorizes the waiver of the competitive bidding process as
not being practicable or advantageous to the CRA the execution of a Professional Services Agreement
with Keva Chester of The Chester Realty Group, Inc. ("Chester Realty") for homeownership qualification
services for the CRA's homeownership program. The contract period will be for one (1) year beginning
on or about May 29, 2020 and ending on or about May 29, 2021, for an amount not to exceed $80,000,
and if successful, an option to renew for a second year for the same amount.
The CRA Board has made homeownership in the Redevelopment Area a top priority. To that objective,
the CRA has implemented a homeownership program for the housing units owned and/or developed by
the CRA. The current and planned housing inventory is as follows: (a) 19 condominium units at Town
Park Plaza North, (b) SEOPW CRA Twin Homes project, (c) SEOPW CRA Quadplex project, and (d) a
24-unit project located at 1611 NW 3rd Avenue, Miami, Florida 33136.
The CRA homeownership program seeks to transform the Redevelopment Area, and specifically
Overtown, from a rental community into a homeownership community. As such, the CRA has an
immediate need for homeownership preparedness and qualification services to ensure that residents in the
Redevelopment Area are prepared, educated and qualified to participate in the CRA's homeownership
program, which is anticipated to roll -out in May 2020 starting with the sale of two (2) homes from the
SEOPW CRA Twin Homes ("Twin Homes") project.
As to the timeliness issue, the Twin Homes project sits on land conveyed by the City of Miami to the
CRA, and the City of Miami has available funding assistance, for that project, of up to $89,000 for
qualified first-time homebuyers. For buyers to receive that funding assistance, the Twin Homes project
must be sold and occupied no later than June 30, 2020. To meet that deadline, it is imperative that the
homeownership qualification program and process begin immediately in order to ensure that potential
homeowners are prepared, eligible, and qualified, particularly those residents who reside within the
Redevelopment Area.
Packet Pg. 209
Chester Realty is a minority -owned company operating within the CRA Redevelopment Area. As a
homeownership program counselor, Keva Chester has significant experience in real estate, and financial
planning and advising. She has worked with communities similar to that in the Redevelopment Area in
addressing homeownership, financial literacy, and credit improvement issues. As a result of her
experience operating and qualifying participants in similar programs, she has an assembled team that is
prepared for an immediate start.
Keva Chester will conduct a virtual homeownership qualification program in which she will prepare and
qualify program participants for the CRA's homeownership program/initiative. The virtual program will
be conducted using the Zoom platform. If and when circumstances permit, in -person sessions will resume
in which classes will be held in the Redevelopment Area. Specifically, she will conduct a total of three
(3), six -week sessions in 2020. Each session will consist of sixty (60) hours of courses to be held three (3)
days a week for approximately three (3) hours each day, and will run for a total of six (6) weeks. Upon
completion of each session, participants will receive a HUD certificate for completion of a first-time
homebuyer course, which will qualify them for various homeownership programs operated by the City of
Miami and Miami -Dade County. The courses will focus on preparing participants to become responsible
homeowners by focusing on financial literacy, credit counseling, budgeting strategies, and foreclosure
prevention. The courses will provide one-on-one assistance that will continue beyond the completion of
the session should the participant need additional services to attain homeownership status. Keva Chester
will also qualify participants to purchase homes through the CRA's homeownership program, in which
the CRA will sell affordable homes to qualified applicants in its effort to increase homeownership in the
Redevelopment Area. In addition, Keva Chester will work with various lenders in assisting qualified
participants to obtain mortgage loans.
Given the time -sensitive nature of this homeownership opportunity on property conveyed by the City of
Miami, it is not practicable nor advantageous for the CRA to proceed in the competitive bidding process,
and therefore the CRA seeks to waive the competitive bidding process in its selection of Keva Chester as
a homeownership program counselor to carry out homeownership qualification services in the
Redevelopment Area. In the alternative, Keva Chester is an independent expert consultant possessing
knowledge, skills, and training otherwise unavailable in the Redevelopment Area.
JUSTIFICATION:
Section 163.335(6), Florida Statutes found and declared that there exists "... a severe shortage of housing
affordable to residents of low or moderate income, including the elderly... [and] such condition[s] affect
the health, safety and welfare of the residents ... and retards their growth and economic and social
development ...."
Section 163.356(3)(c), Florida Statutes states that a community redevelopment agency may "employ ...
technical experts, and such other agents and employees, permanent and temporary, as it requires, and
determine their qualifications, duties, and compensation."
Section 4, on page 101 of the 2009 Southeast Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment Plan
("Plan") specifically provides for the "implement[ation] [of] a homeownership prequalification and
counseling program [to] provide homeownership training session, market public sector assistance
programs, and assist in pre -qualifying home buyers."
Section 2, Principle 4 on page 14 of the Plan further provides that the "neighborhood has to retain access
to affordable housing even as the neighborhood becomes more desirable to households with greater
means" as a stated redevelopment principle.
Page 2 of 8
Packet Pg. 210
Section 2, Principle 3 on page 14 of the Plan also provides that "there must be variety in housing options"
as a stated redevelopment principle.

redevelopment goal.

Instructor Bio
Keva Chester is a Miami Native. She grew up in Liberty City, Miami and graduated from Miami
Jackson Senior High School top ten (10) percent of her class. She received her Associate in
Science in Pre -Medicine from Miami -Dade College and her Bachelors of Applied Science in
Business Management from Broward College. Upon graduation, she became a licensed
Correctional Officer, employed with Miami -Dade County Corrections and Rehabilitation (MDCR).
Keva is currently completing her Masters of Science in International Real Estate at Florida
International University. She is scheduled to graduate in December 2020.
While serving our communities , Keva realized there was a huge deficiency of homeownership
and financial literacy within our communities. She went to acquire her Real Estate Sales
Associate License, and was employed by Keller Williams Elite Properties. She also became a
Licensed Financial Advisor with Primerica.
As a part-time Real Estate Sales Associate and Financial Advisor, Keva and her team dominate
the market by providing financial literacy and homes to over 100 Miami -Dade & Broward County
Residents. Keva also held the position of Director of Marketing for Liberty City Trust where she
was able to promote and plan homeownership programs and seminars to our Liberty City
residents.
Due to Keva's passion for helping residents obtain the first leverage of life by becoming
homeowners, her business experienced a drastic growth. She decided to take a leap of faith
and retire from MDCR after serving a total of nine (9) years as a Certified Corrections Officer.
Currently, Keva is the principal broker of The Chester Realty Group, a thriving female and
minority owned Real Estate Brokerage, and still serving our communities by providing
homeownership and financial literacy to the residents throughout our communities.

Redevelopment Plan ("Plan") lists the "creati[on of] jobs within the community" and "improving the
quality of life for residents" as stated redevelopment goals.
Section 2, Principle 10 on page 16, of the Plan also lists "[m]aintenance of public streets and spaces has to

SECTION A TECHNICAL PROPOSAL
Narrative of Human Resources of Miami, Inc.
Human Resources of Miami, Inc. is the most qualified and the best choice for this project, mainly
because we are located in the Southeast Overtown/Park West area and have been here for many
years. We did not move to the area to take advantage of any governmental benefits, we are here
solely to serve the community. Originally, in 1999, we helped this area by registering more than 300
women who wanted to work but could not find employment nor possessed the skills to interview.
Human Resource Staffing assisted the young ladies with training and placement with entities that
needed massive numbers of employees or waitress, custodians for hotels, and landscaping.
We are a part of the community through our cooperation with several faith -based organizations, and
visited apartments and local stores, going door to door, offering assistance to the dwellers, both
spiritually and with counseling.
Through our relationship with McDonald's Playworld Community Development, Inc., a community -
based corporation, we have walked the streets, been in and out of One Stop/Workforce, distributing
flyers and enrolling teenagers in school, placing them in daycares for "free care" for the children of
the teenagers, and we have provided counseling to pregnant women in the shelters located in the
Overtown area, as well. We can be relied upon to provide services to this area, because we have,
and often without reimbursement or financial resources from anyone.
Another reason why Human Resources of Miami, Inc. is uniquely qualified to provide street
cleaning and maintenance services to the Overtown area, is because both the management and
leadership of the company, were born in Miami, Florida, and lived in this community during some
stage of their lives — they either attended school, attended church, rode the bus, walked through the
streets, and survived, not overcome by the challenges of this uniquely burdened community. Again,
we are a part of this community.
During the years of 2005 thru 2010, most of Human Resources of Miami, Inc.'s efforts were directed
towards developing a product that the union workers of Miami Dade County School Board would be
able to provide at a low cost, to cover both health and other risks that this level of employee faces.
After many attempts, this effort was not completed, since the primary person (my husband) passed in
2010. Thus, as we regrouped in 2010, we focused more on our original mission of assisting the low-
income, deficiently skilled worker, with finding employment in a highly competitive and complex
society, such as Miami, Florida.
Since 2010, this contract, Overtown Enhancement Team Services Pilot Program, is consistent with
our game plan of self -empowerment by the community. By hiring eleven (11) employees from the
Overtown community, there will be a ripple effect experienced throughout the community, not to
mention, the increased level of self-esteem, pride, confidence, and ability to contribute to each
individual family's household. Human Resources of Miami, Inc. would like to be a part of this
endeavor.
The leaders of this proposed contract, retained by Human Resources of Miami, Inc., have leadership

Our Enhancements or Changes to Scope of the Project for the FYE 2019/2020
Our enhancement to the Overtown Beautification Project will be the following:
1. Expand the function of the Crew Manager, to include more community outreach, counseling, job
fairs, externships, internships, and job placement for 50% of the time employed and managing the
crew the balance of the time, serving as the liaison between the Contract Manager and CRA.
2. Empower the position of Crew Leader/Field Supervisor with the skills, ability and authority to
manage the crew, as we nurture a second position to have supervisory responsibilities, serving as the
Crew Supervisor/Truck Driver.
3. Increase hands on exposure to landscaping, environmental, and construction skills for the entire
team, by providing externships with Human Resources of Miami's Landscaping Division and other
entities, in the Overtown community, organized and supervised by the Crew Manager.
4. Expand the support services to the team, which will include one (1) hour weekly training, such as
budgeting, credit counseling, drug -testing, life -skills counseling, and parenting skills, so that all
trainees can transition from this part-time job to a more permanent, full-time employment within
other parts of the community. The crew will also have one (1) hour per month scheduled for
community services, to assist with developing within them a desire to help the community and
themselves, as we are training them to be leaders, supervised by the Crew Manager.

4. Applicants not hired will be maintained as a separate pool of individuals, whom we will counsel
and perform assessments of their career options and their unmet needs socially, such as housing,
medical, drug and alcohol dependency, educational deficiencies, to name a few. These persons will
be referred to the appropriate community services for assistance. They will also serve as the "on
call" data base for daily placement during the duration of the contract, if the originally hired
individuals leave, quit, or are terminated. We estimate 0 (seventy) persons will be helped.
5. After completion of the program, all crew members should transition to external positions,
preferably, full-time, and/or educational and vocational options, so that a new crew can become a
part of the CRA Overtown Beautification team. Our goal is to train/hire, at a minimum,
annually, fourteen (14) persons, eleven (11) per the contract and three (3) substitutes for the
daily project needs.
CONCLUSION
Human Resources ofMiami/Overtown Beautification Team is requesting $350,000,
which will allow us to maintain the activity level of 30 hours per employee and 35
hours for the crew manager. We will employ 11 persons with 3 alternates, for a
total of 14 individuals. This amounts to a total of 365 hours weekly and 18,980
hours per the contract term. We will also assist 21 other persons with community
referrals and job placement. The cost per participant for the entire cost of
$350, 000, therefore, is $18.44 per participant hour for the eleven (11) persons hired.
Our goal will be to assist 35 persons in total annually.
Human Resources of Miami/Overtown Beautification Team is requesting a five year
renewal period to perform the contract is much less than the contribution to the
community and residents, enhancing first, the environment, the employee (self-
respect and self-worth), the economic input to the immediate Overtown
environment, allowing the employee/trainees to spend cash to spend in the
community with their families at the grocery stores, rental expenses, and general
shopping. In general, the trainees will be receiving a fully -loaded hourly rate of
$15.18 per hour, which include their direct cost and fringe benefits.
Per CRA goals and objectives, Human
Resources of Miami, Inc. will enhance career
and personal development for each
eemployee/trainee, and will produce
responsible citizens to live and work in the
Overtown community!!

BACKGROUND:
The attached Resolution of the Board of Commissioners of the Southeast Overtown/Park West
Community Redevelopment Agency ("CRA") authorizes the issuance of a grant to 241 NW 17th Street
LLC, in an amount not to exceed $400,000, for the renovation and rehabilitation of 241 NW 17th Street,
Miami, Florida 33136 to increase the affordable housing inventory in the Redevelopment Area.
Known as "Sir John Guest House", the property is a residential building consisting of twenty-six (26)
single rooms and six (6) shared bathrooms. As an all-inclusive "flat -rate" residence, Sir John Guest Home
allows low- and fixed -income residents to enjoy safe, secure, clean and private housing in Historic
Overtown. Further, it creates an opportunity for those residents transitioning from either homelessness or
an involuntary downscale to avoid homelessness by creating below -market housing options that are
affordable.
The requested funding will be used to update the windows and doors, renovate floors, bathrooms and
roofing, install and enhance security system and lighting, improve handicap accessibility, install
mechanical and electrical upgrades, and update the facade of the building. Funds will also be utilized for
drywall and concrete related repairs and installations, and parking lot and landscaping improvements.
It is the recommendation of the CRA to authorize a grant in the amount of $400,000 to 241 NW 17th
Street LLC for the rehabilitation of a residential building to increase the inventory of affordable housing
in the Redevelopment Area.
JUSTIFICATION:
Section 163.335(6), Florida Statutes found and declared that there exists "... a severe shortage of housing
affordable to residents of low or moderate income, including the elderly... [and] such condition[s] affect
the health, safety and welfare of the residents ... and retards their growth and economic and social
development ...."

Section 2, Goal 3 on page 11 of the 2009 Southeast Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment
Plan ("Plan") lists "creating infill housing, diversity in housing types, and retaining affordable housing"
as a stated redevelopment goal.
Section 2, Principle 2 on page 14 of the Plan also provides that the "neighborhood has to retain access to
affordable housing even as the neighborhood becomes more desirable to households with greater means"
as a stated redevelopment principle.
Section 2, Principle 3 on page 14 of the Plan further provides that "there must be variety in housing
options" as a stated redevelopment principle.

3.5.a
Mr. Zeltsman and Mr. Shiver,
I am the owner of Sir John Guest House located at 241 NW 17th St., Miami, Florida 33136 ("Sir John"). Sir John is a
residential building consisting of 26 single rooms and 6 shared bathrooms. It is an ideal residence for members of the
community to enjoy secure, safe, clean, and private housing in Historic Overtown.
Historically, guest houses, or rooming houses, have been a large part of the fiber of historically African -American, first -
generation immigrant, and many other communities in the City of Miami. As an all-inclusive "flat -rate" housing building,
Sir John allows low and fixed income residents to enjoy the housing environment they deserve. Residents of Sir John are
able to save money without the worries of unpredictable utilities thus allowing them to financially prepare for
transitioning from a room, with shared bath, to an affordable full housing setting such as, an apartment. Sir John creates
an ideal opportunity for residents transitioning, either out of homelessness or an involuntary downscale, to avoid
homelessness by creating below -market housing options, which are in low supply. In addition, Sir John offers a
communal and group setting with the comfort of a private room. It is a place where single people live, work, and share
living spaces.
In order to provide the best housing environment to our community, I am seeking $400,000 to renovate Sir John (the
"Funds"). The historic art deco architecture will be preserved with upgrades to provide the best possible experience for
our residents. We are currently substantially occupied, but until the renovations are complete to accommodate full
capacity, the building must remain partially vacant. This partial vacancy ultimately affects my ability to provide
maximum housing units to our community. With that, I contemplate the following improvements with the Funds to
include, but not be limited to:
1. Mechanical;
2. Electrical;
3. Plumbing;
4. Concrete;
5. Roof;
6. Drywall;
7. Windows and Doors;
8. Flooring;
9. Metals;
10. Carpentry;
11. Parking Lot Improvements;
12. Landscaping; and
13. Dumpster Enclosure.
The current housing market in Overtown does not afford many residents in our community the ability to continue to reside
here, where most were born and raised. The inability to secure housing is often due to credit, income, job verification, or
various other impediments. We pride ourselves on being able to provide a clean, safe and affordable housing option for
our community We are very familiar with, and active in, Overtown. As a result, we are able to offer personal and
unconventional solutions to ensure affordable housing access to many.
For your reference, attached please find the preliminary construction proposal. Please note that the difference in
the amount included in the proposal and the Funds will be used to cover permitting costs, the performance bond and
contingencies.
Please let me know if you have any questions and thank you for your consideration.
Many thanks,

SEOPW Board of Commissioners Meeting

SOUTHEAST OVERTOWN/PARK WEST
COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM
To: Board Chair Keon Hardemon Date: May 22, 2020
and Members of the CRA Board
From: Cornelius Shiver
Executive Director
File: 7484
Subject: Resolution authorizing additional
funding to Town Park Plaza South,
Inc., in the amount of $1,302,75
Enclosures: File # 7484 Back up
BACKGROUND:
The attached Resolution of the Board of Commissioners (the "Board") of the Southeast Overtown/Park
West Community Redevelopment Agency ("CRA") authorizes additional funding to Town Park Plaza
South, Inc. ("TPPS"), in an amount not to exceed $1,302,753.97, as a result of construction delays at
Town Park Plaza South located at 1798 NW 7th Avenue, Miami, Florida 33136 (the "Property"), which is
undergoing rehabilitation of 116 affordable housing units (the "Project").
On June 29, 2015, the Board, by Resolution No. CRA-R-15-0025, authorized a grant, in an amount not to
exceed $10,000,000 for the Project. On July 25, 2016, the Board, by Resolution No. CRA-R-16-0037,
authorized additional funding in an amount not to exceed $3,500,00. On December 16, 2019, pursuant to
Resolution No. CRA-R-19-0048 the Board authorized additional funding in the amount of $1,602,658 to
finalize the Project primarily due to increased relocation costs as a result of limited housing availability
and increased rental expenses.
TPPS now seeks additional funding as a result of construction delays due to the City of Miami, on
January 15, 2020, placing a hold on all inspections because of issues with Temporary Certificate of
Occupancy extensions, and the coronavirus pandemic. Per H.A. Contracting Corp. ("H.A."), the general
contractor performing the rehabilitation, the delay in securing the required inspections affected its path of
completion for the Project, and the aforementioned inspection hold was not lifted until March 30, 2020.
As it pertains to the coronavirus pandemic, H.A. states that construction work was slowed due to social
distancing requirements and the City of Miami suspending all inspections required by the building
department. In addition, H.A. states that labor, overhead, and supervision costs have increased due to
social distancing requirements and that it needed to secure the services of a third -party provider to
conduct the necessary building inspections to move forward with the Project. As a result of the
construction delays described above, H.A. asserts that relocation costs have increased. For example, the
existing leases for the relocated residents of the Property are expiring and must be renewed for no less
than a 12-month lease period as required by the unit owners, with a potential assignability option.
Therefore, TPPS seeks additional funding in the amount of $1,302,753.97, for a total overall grant
amount of $16,405,411.97, which will be sufficient to complete the Project with a projected date of
completion of November 15, 2020.

Re: NOTICE OF DELAYS
Town Park South
Dear Brian,
CGC: 010703
AA: 26001486
As you are aware, we are encountering several significant obstacles in our efforts to finish this
proj ect.
Please consider this letter our formal notification that our project is being delayed by conditions
beyond the control of the contractor. These conditions include but are not limited to the following:
City of Miami: On January 15, 2020 the City of Miami once again placed a hold on all inspections
due to the TCO extension issues. This hold up in securing the required inspections directly affected
the critical path of completion of this project. After several meetings with the City, we cleared the
hold March 30th 2020.
Coronavirus Pandemic: Per our notification to you on April 8, 2020, of the pandemic
Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19), and the National and State emergency we are currently under.
The immediate effects have been that Construction work has been slowed by the regulations
regarding social distancing and the City of Miami's suspending of all building and inspections
required by building department. These delays represent material changes in the conditions of
our contract.
• Labor costs have increased due to social distancing requirements. We are encountering
Labor shortages due to infection or quarantine

providing quality construction services
CGC: 010703
AA: 26001486
H.A. Contracting Corp. remains fully committed to pursuing the completion of our work in a safe,
diligent and reasonable manner under the current circumstances. The work is being delayed and our
productivity is being negatively impacted by the cumulative effect of this outbreak. Future Potential
impacts may include, but are not limited to, as well as material shortages and significant delays in
lead times as a result of factory closings across the globe. Due to the delays described above our
projected completion date is currently November 15, 2020.
Currently we have leases that are due to expire in May 2020. The landlords will only grant us a 1-
year lease extension. We are requesting approval from the Community Redevelopment Agency to
enter into negations with our landlords to grant us a 1-year extension and make these leases
assignable as we do not anticipate needing them for a full year. Once we receive approval from the
Community Redevelopment Agency we will enter agreements with assignability.
Attached are the Change Orders for the additional relocation and costs associated with the delays
outlined above.
We will continue to keep your project representatives informed of these delays and their effect on
overall job completion. We will diligently seek to minimize to the best of our ability, the effects of
these delays on our work. Your cooperation in minimizing these impacts are appreciated as work
our way through this unprecedented event.

Victor Angelo
