From: James McQueen
Executive Director
Enclosures: FILE # 12344-Backup
BACKGROUND:
The attached resolution of the Board of Commissioners of the Southeast Overtown/Park West
Community Redevelopment Agency ("SEOPW CRA") authorize funds to increase to Human Resources
of Miami, Inc. ("HRM"), in an amount not to exceed $100,500.00, to increase service to Northwest 20th
Street along 3rd Avenue and 2nd Court to Northwest 2nd Avenue effective immediately.
The SEOPW CRA has funded the Overtown Beautification Team members (the "Blue Shirts") for the
past 11 years. Since 2011, HRM has overseen Blue Shirts which provides on-the-job training and
employment opportunities to residents from the Redevelopment Area interested in landscaping
maintenance. The Blue Shirts is a second -chance job creation program that allows Overtown residents to
work in Overtown. Not only does it provide job opportunities for local residents and low-income families,
but the program also helps beautify the community, allows for the clean-up of its neighborhoods, and
indirectly assists with the facade of surrounding areas.
On July 22, 2021, the SEOPW CRA Board adopted CRA Resolution CRA-R-21-0021 to provide a grant
to HRM in the amount of $350,000.00 to fund the program for two years from July 4, 2021, through July
4, 2023. However, due to the continued effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic, the cost of living for
marginal workers has been affected. SEOPW CRA Board adopted CRA Resolution CRA-R-21-0003 in
the amount of $75,000.00 to increase the wages of the Overtown Beautification Team to provide a living
wage.
JUSTIFICATION:
Pursuant to Section 163.340(9) of the Florida Statutes "community redevelopment... means undertakings,
activities, or projects... in a community redevelopment area for the elimination and prevention of the

Section 2, Goal 4 at page 10 of the 2018 Southeast Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment
Agency Updated Plan (the "Updated Plan") lists the "creati[on of] jobs within the community..." as a
stated redevelopment goal.

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.

Continued Expansion from prior years
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.

5. 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 31 to 35 persons will be helped.
6. 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 for the daily project needs.
CONCLUSION
Human Resources of Miami/Overtown Beautification Team is requesting $500, 000,
which will allow us to maintain the activity level of 30 hours per employee/trainee
and 40 hours for crew management. We will employ 13 persons with 3 alternates,
for a total of 16 individuals This amounts to a total of 430 hours weekly and
21,930 hours per the contract term. We will also assist 31 other persons with
community referrals and job placement (individuals not able to hire). The cost per
participant for the entire cost of $500, 000, therefore, is $22.80 per participant hour
for the eleven (14) persons hired. Our goal will be to assist 45 persons in total
annually.
Human Resources ofMiami/Overtown Beautification Team is grateful and excited
for this renewal period, giving us the opportunity 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 $18.09 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!!

Dear Selection Committee:
Thank you for considering this application of Miami -Dade North Arts & Humanities Foundation, Inc. dba
Miami Museum of Contemporary Art of the African Diaspora (Miami MoCAAD) for funding in the amount
of $50,000 to support the Overtown mural project launch and Creative Conversation panel discussion with
the curator and artists for Overtown's 2022 Soul Basel event. Miami MoCAAD's interactive media mural
and oral history project will culminate in a public launch Soul Basel event on November 27, which will be
held at the Historic Ward Rooming House.
Hans Ottinot and I co-founded Miami MoCAAD in 2013 because we believe that, as a hub of the
contemporary art world and a crossroads of the Caribbean, Miami is the right place for an institution that
discovers, collects, showcases, preserves, and exhibits the most advanced artists of the African Diaspora.
The proposed Overtown murals are part of a series of mixed -reality public art projects that incorporate in -
person art experiences and virtual engagement. QR codes will link viewers' devices to oral history videos;
a 3D model of the artist with biographical information; an interactive experience introducing Miami
MoCAAD's future museum; and a treasure hunt game about iconic people and architecture in Overtown.
The project honors Overtown's people, places and aspirations through the lens of contemporary art.
I am pleased that Miami MoCAAD is submitting its first proposal for funding to the Southeast
Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment Agency. The work that the CRA does in support of the
Overtown community is critical, especially in these difficult times of uncertainty. Thank you for
considering our proposal.
Sincerely,
Marilyn Holifield

SEOPW Board of Commissioners Meeting
July 28, 2022
SOUTHEAST OVERTOWN/PARK WEST
COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM
To: Board Chair Christine King and Date: July 22, 2022 File: 12349
Members of the CRA Board
Subject: Emergency Rental Assistance
��- Program
From: James McQueen
Executive Director
Enclosures: FILE #12349 - Backup
BACKGROUND:
This Resolution of the Board of Commissioners of the Southeast Overtown/Park West Community
Redevelopment Agency ("SEOPW CRA") authorizes a grant, in an amount not to exceed $1,000,000.00,
the funding of an Emergency Rental Assistance Program ("ERAP") to be administered by the SEOPW
CRA. The ERAP is in response to the recent rent spike crisis in the area, to help re -stabilize the housing
situation for many of our residents, during a projected, oncoming economic recession and eviction
predicament in the SEOPW CRA zone. Since the overall impact of the pandemic, including rising
inflation and a real estate boom, SEOPW CRA has quickly become the most housing costs -burdened,
major metropolis in the nation. Moreover, in the backdrop of the end of eviction moratoriums, the
SEOPW CRA jurisdiction is even more vulnerable due to the areas low income within the redevelopment
area. The recent federal economic stimulus packages inspired a plethora of similar programs in
municipalities across the county. The SEOPW CRA essentially models them, prioritizing tenant
households failing at or under 50% Area Median Income ("AMP') over 80% AM threshold requirement.
JUSTIFICATION:
Florida Statutes, Section 163.335(6) of the Community Redevelopment Act (the "Act"), 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 10 of the 2018 Southeast Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment
Plan (the "Updated Plan") lists "encourag [ing] ... affordable ...housing within the CRA" as a stated
redevelopment goal; and
Section 2, Principle 2, on page 13 of the "Updated Plan" also provides that "the neighborhood must retain
access to affordable housing even as the neighborhood becomes more desirable to households with
greater means" as a stated redevelopment principle; and
Packet Pg. 75
3.6
Section 2, Principle 14, on page 15 of the "Updated Plan" also provides to "restore a sense of community
and unify the area culturally... to do whatever is in the CRA's] power to bring back... Overtown its...
sense of place [and] cultural distinctiveness" as a stated redevelopment principle.
FUNDING:
$1,000,000.00 allocated from SEOPW - "Other Grants and Aids" Account
No.10050.920101.883000.0000.00000.
FACT SHEET:
Company name: Southeast Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment Agency (Emergency
Rental Assistance Program)
Address: 819 NW 2nd Ave., 3rd floor, Miami, FL 33136
Number of participants: Estimated impact of over 170 jurisdictional tenant households and property
owners combined.
Funding request: $1,000,000.00
Term: Payments will start in August 2022 over the maximum period of six months' worth of rental
payments; January 2023 is when the earliest grantees would be exiting the program
Stipend provided? Yes, a stipend to participants.
Maximum allotted rent increase payment of $500.00 a household for a maximum period of six months,
making for a cap of $3,000.00, to be paid directly to the property owner after passing a unit inspection.
Age range of participants: Adults of legal tenant and property -owning age, 18+
Scope of work or services (Summary): We are largely modeling from similar ERA programs of local
municipalities. A marketing campaign will follow, including the distribution of informational flyers or
brochures. Paper applications will be disseminated throughout the jurisdiction with both tenants applying
and landlords being given the opportunity to approve or refer their tenants to the program, all with the
submission option to mail in or drop off directly to CRA Office. We will use our rubric to help determine
prioritization and eligibility. Alternatives may be sought for eligible tenant grantees with uncooperative
landlords.

The Southeast Overtown Park West CRA (SEOPW C.RA) is providing these frequently asked
questions (FAQs) as guidance regarding the requirements of the Emergency Rental Assistance
Program (ERA) established by Resolution (CRA- 22- XXXX)
These FAQs apply to the SEOPW CRA ERA Program.
1. Who is eligible to receive assistance under the SEOPW CRA ERA and how should a
grantee document the eligibility of a household?
An applicant may only use the funds provided in the SEOPW ERA Program to provide financial
assistance and housing stability services to eligible households. To be eligible, a household must
be obligated to pay rent on a residential dwelling within the SEOPW CRA Boundaries and the
grantee must determine that:
a. One or more individuals within the household has qualified for unemployment
benefits or experienced a reduction in household income, incurred significant
costs, or experienced other financial hardship due, directly or indirectly, to the
CO VID-19 outbreak
b. One or more individuals within the household can demonstrate a risk of
experiencing homelessness or housin.g instability
c. The household, including households of single persons, has a household income
at or below 80 percent of area median income (AMI *), $54,600 for a household of
one. Priority will be given to households of an even lower income at or below 50
percent AMI, $34,150 for a household of one
d. Applicant must reside within the SEOPW CRA Boundaries
e. Applicant must not live within a CRA rehabbed or new construction development
f. Applicant must show proof of a significant rent increase since most recently
completed ].ease leading up to current lease
g If the applicant is awarded, the -funding will be provided directly o he landlord,
therefore, landlord cooperation and their applying to theprogram is also expected
throughout the process
2. How should applicants document that a member of the household has qualified for
unemployment benefits, experienced a reduction in income, incurred significant costs, or
experienced other financial hardship due to the COVID-19 outbreak?
An applicant must document that one or more members of their household has either (i) qualified
for unemployment benefits or (ii) experienced a reduction in household income, incurred
Attachment: FILE #12349 - Backup (12349 : Emergency Rental Assistance Program)
Packet Pg. 84
3.6.a
s
significant costs, or experienced other financial. hardship due, directly or indirectly, to the
COVID-19 outbreak.
3. How should an applicant determine that an individual within a household is at risk of
experiencing homelessness or housing instability?
The SEOPW ERA program requires that one or more individuals within the household can
demonstrate a risk of experiencing homelessness or housing instability. Such a demonstration
may include (i) a past duerent notice or eviction notice, (ii) unsafe or unhealthy living conditions
(which may include overcrowding), or (iii) any other evidence of risk, as determined by the
SEOPW CRA.
4. SEOPW ERA funds may be used for rent and past due rent. How should an applicant
document where they reside and the amount of rent or past due rent owed?
Applicant must obtain, if available, a current lease, signed by the applicant and the landlord or
sublessor, that identifies the unit where the applicant resides and establishes the rental payment
amount. If a household does not have a signed lease, documentation of residence may include
evidence of paying utilities for the residential unit, an attestation by a landlord who can be
identified as the verified owner or management agent of the unit, or other reasonable
documentation as determined by the SEOPW CRA. In the absence of a signed lease, evidence of
the amount of a rental payment may include bank statements, check stubs, or other
documentation that reasonably establishes a pattern of paying rent, a written attestation, by a
landlord who can be verified as the legitimate owner or management agent of the unit, or other
reasonable documentation as defined by the grantee in its policies and procedures. Moreover, the
CRA will emphasize awarding grantees who have a proven record of a significant rent increase,
and therefore, have more recently found themselves in financial hardship due to this explicit
increase.
5. Is there a limit on how many months of financial assistance a tenant can receive?
Yes. An eligible household may receive up to six (6) months of assistance or total of $3000,
$500 a month for six months to ensure housing stability for the household, subject to the
availability offunds. The collective amount of financial. assistance an eligible household may
receive must not exceed 6 in.onths. In no case may an eligible household receive more than 6
months of assistance under SEOPW CRA ERA Program.
6. Must the SEOPW CRA pay for all househOld's past due rent?
No, the full payment of past due rent is allowed up to the financial assistance limits.

Packet Pg. 85
3.6.a
7. What outreach must be made by an applicant to a landlord provider before determining
that the landlord will. not accept direct payment from the SEOPW CRA?
The SEOPW CRA expects that in general., rental assistance can be provided most effectively and
efficiently when the landlord provider participates in the program. However, in cases where a
landlord. provider does not participate in the program, the only way to achieve the statutory
purpose is to aid directly to the eligible household.
Applicants must make reasonable efforts to obtain the cooperation of landlords and providers to
accept payments from the SEOPW CRA ERA program. Outreach will be considered complete if
(i) a request for participation is sent in writing, by mail, to the landlord provider, and the
addressee does not respond to the request within seven calendar days after mailing; (ii) the
grantee has made at least three atte.mpts by phone, text, or email over a five calendar -day period
to request the landlord or utility provider's participation; or (iii) a landlord confirms in writing
that the landlord does not wish to participate. All outreach attempts or notices to the landlord
must be documented.
8. Is there a requirement that the eligible household members have been in their current
rental home when the public health emergency, with respect to COVID-1.9, was declared?
No, there is no requirement regarding the length. of tenure in the current unit.
9. Are tenants of federally subsidized housing, e.g., Low Income Housing Credit, Public
Housing, or SEOPW CRA Assisted developments, eligible for the SEOPW ERA program?
An eligible household that occupies a federally subsidized residential or mixed -use property, or
receives federal rental assistance, may receive assistance in the ERA Program if the tenant rent is
adjusted according to changes in income; the renter household may receive SEOPW CRA ERA
assistance for the tenant -owed portion of rent that is not subsidized. The SEOPW CRA
encourages the applicant to confirm that they have already reported any income loss or financial
hardship to the Public Housing Authority or property manager before assistance is provided.
N. In cases where the property owner is also a primary resident in a shared building (e.g.
duplex) with the financially unstable, eligible tenant applicant, may that property owner
also apply to receive aid for their mortgage expenses?
Yes, the SEOPW CRA may aid households for which the landlord is also essentially the ERAP
grantee, provided that the landlord grantee complies with the all provisions ofthe SEOPW CRA
.ERA Program, as applicable, and the award terms.

P
11. The SEOPW CRA prohibits landlords from pursuing eviction for nonpayment of rent
for some period after receiving the SEOPW CRA ERA financial assistance?
With respect to landlords that receive funds under the SEOPW CRA ERA program. for past due
rent, the SEOPW CRA prohibits the landlord from evicting the tenant for nonpayment of rent
with respect to the period covered by the assistance.
In addition, with respect to landlords that receive funds for past due rent, to promote the purpose
of the program, the SEOPW CRA prohibits the landlord from evicting the tenant for nonpayment
of rent for some period, consistent with applicable law.
In all cases, the SEOPW CRA require landlords that receive funds under the ERA program, as a
condition of receiving the funds, not to evict tenants for nonpayment of rent for 30 to 90 days
longer than the period covered by the rental assistance.

SEOPW ERAP: Landlord FAQ
4'han is a,:,
A CRA is a dependent special. districtu in which any future increases in property values are set aside to support
redevelopment activities that would eliminate conditions of slum a.nd blight. A CRA can only be created by
adhering to the statutory requirements of Chapter 163, Part 111, Florida Statutes. Specifically, a Finding of Necessity
demonstrafing the existence of slum and blight conditions is required to be prepared and accepted by the governing
boards of county and municipal in which the area in question is located. §163.355& 163.356(1), Fla. Stat.
Thereafter, a Redevelopment Plan setting forth the manner in which the conditions of slum and blight arc to be
eliminated must be approved by the governing body. § 163.360(1), Fla. Stat.
What is the E P?
The Emergency Renta.lAssista.nce Program by the Southeast Overtown/Park West CRA is an initiative set forth in
response to recent rent spikes in the area, to help re -stabilize the housing situations for many of our residents.
Although tenants must apply for the a ssistance, the funding will ultimately he provided to the landlords, who must
also apply and provide their proper documentation. However, certain conditions must be m.et, including the passing
of an inspection. Also note that the applying tenant(s) must be eligible for the assistance for the landlord to
ultimately receive the funding. It will be possible, therefore, for the landlord to refer their tenants when applying.
Up to $500 a month perhousehold fora maximum of six. months, making for a cap at $3,00 0.
Yes, an initial. inspection is required inside and outside of the unit.

3.6.a
No, you will not need to attend the initial inspection, but entrance into the unit must be provided, along with all
access to the utilities being on. Failure to either will cause an automatic failure of the initial inspection and may
delay your receiving of assistance.
What if my initial inspection fails?
Based on the initia 1 inspection, we will determine if a second inspection is required. Certain conditions must be met
to qualify for the CRA ERAP. The CRA is possibly willing to help you with meeting those conditions, providing
that it saves currently applying tenants from eviction. If the unit or building needs major renovations, then your
property may he eligible for a special grant from the CRA, again, in exchange for the housing stability of your
current tenants.
No, the inspection checklist will not be provided to the landlord prior to inspection. However, you will be provided
an inspection notice and appointment date after you successfully apply.

Section 3. In accordance with section 163.360, Florida Statutes, this Board accepts the
delivery of the 2018 Southeast Overtown Park West Community Redevelopment Plan ("2018
amended plan"), in substantially the form attached hereto as Attachment "H" and incorporated
herein by reference. This Board further finds that:
(a) The rehabilitation, conservation or redevelopment or a combination
of each, of the Southeast Overtown Park West Community Redevelopment
Area, which is generally bounded by NW 22nd Street to the north, NW 7th
avenue to the west, NW 1st Place to the east and NW 1st Street to the south
(the "redevelopment area") is necessary in the interest of the public health,
safety, morals and welfare of the residents of Miami -Dade County and in
the interest of implementing the Community Redevelopment Act of 1969,
which is presently codified in part III of chapter 163, Florida Statutes, as
amended from time to time (the "Act") by rehabilitating and revitalizing the
area economically and socially, thereby inhibiting the spread of disease and
crime, and inter alia improving the tax base, promoting sound growth, and
providing improved housing conditions.
(b) A feasible method exists for the location of families who will be
displaced from the redevelopment area in decent, safe, and sanitary
dwelling accommodations within their means and without undue hardship
to such families.
(c) The 2018 amended plan conforms to the general plan of the County
and the City of Miami ("City") as a whole.
(d) The 2018 amended plan gives due consideration to the utilization of
community policing innovations, and to the provision of adequate park and
recreational areas and facilities that may be desirable for neighborhood
improvement, with special consideration for the health, safety and welfare
of children residing in the general vicinity of the site covered by the 2018
amended plan.
(e) The 2018 amended plan will afford maximum opportunity,
consistent with the sound needs of the County as a whole, for the
rehabilitation or redevelopment of the redevelopment area by private
enterprise.
(f) If the redevelopment area consists of an area of open land to be
acquired by the County or the City to be developed in whole or in part for
residential uses such as may be acquired because it is hereby determined
that: (i) a shortage of housing of sound standards and design which is
decent, safe, affordable to residents of low or moderate income, including
the elderly, and sanitary exists in the County; (ii) the need for housing

accommodations has increased in the area; (iii) the conditions of blight in
the area or the shortage of decent, safe, affordable and sanitary housing
cause or contribute to an increase in the spread of disease and crime or
constitute a menace to the public health, safety, morals or welfare; and (iv)
the acquisition of the area for residential uses is an integral part of and is
essential to the program of the County.
(g) If the redevelopment area consists of an area of open land to be
acquired by the County or the City so as to be developed in whole or in part
for non-residential uses such may be acquired because it is hereby
determined that: (i) such non-residential uses are necessary and appropriate
to facilitate the proper growth and development of the community in
accordance with sound planning standards and local community objectives;
(ii) acquisition may require the exercise of governmental action as provided
in the Act because of defective, or unusual conditions of, title or diversity
of ownership which prevents the free alienability of such land; tax
delinquency; improper subdivisions; outmoded street patterns; deterioration
of site; economic disuse; unsuitable topography or faulty lot layouts; lack
of correlation of the area with other areas of the County by streets and
modem traffic requirements; or any combination of such factors or other
conditions which retard redevelopment of the area; and (iii) conditions of
blight in the area contribute to an increase in and spread of disease and crime
or constitute a menace to public health, safety, morals or welfare.
Section 4. This Board further finds and determines that the 2018 amended plan: (1) is
sufficiently complete to indicate such land acquisition, demolition and removal of structures,
redevelopment, improvements and rehabilitation as may be proposed to be carried out in the
redevelopment area, zoning and planning changes, if any, land uses, maximum densities and
building requirements; (2) conforms with the Act; and (3) is necessary in the interest of the public
health, safety, morals and welfare of the residents of the County and will effectuate the purposes
of the Act by revitalizing the redevelopment area economically and socially, thereby increasing
the tax base, promoting sound growth, improving housing conditions and eliminating the
conditions which the Florida Legislature in the Act found constituted a menace injurious to the
public health, safety, welfare and morals of the residents.
