Business incentive & assistance funds may be used for improvements to properties that are not eligible for grant funding from other sources available in the area, or to supplement grant funds awarded by other agencies. Funds may not cross Omni CRA District Boundaries and are targeted at specific areas in the Omni CRA District. This program is a match assistance program requiring a 25% match from the property or business owner. The program has a project cap of $200,000. In addition to the required private match, the grant recipient is responsible for all project costs that exceed $200,000 provided by the CRA. The CRA may recommend and approve business funding at a lesser amount than requested. Awards are given subject to the availability of funds and based on priorities outlined below. Funds from this program are paid on a reimbursement basis or directly to the contractors performing the work upon the provision of satisfactory invoices to the CRA. All Grantees requesting grant funding must have at least three estimates from different Florida licensed general contractors. Program Areas and Priorities: While both Downtown Miami and the Wynwood area have benefited from the boom in commercial and residential development, areas within the CRA district have not seen the benefit of this investment. Various business corridors of the Omni CRA suffer from neglected properties and a general aesthetic that is not conducive for businesses to thrive in the community. The Omni CRA has prioritized improvements to properties within the limits of the boundaries of the entire Omni CRA district (see map). In the Omni CRA, priorities include projects that can use CRA funds to leverage other public and private investments and bring new business and restaurant/entertainment venues to distressed areas. In addition, this program seeks to bring needed improvement to the Multi -family residential units within the program boundaries. Since buildings with a high level of vacancy are eligible, the requirement of Certificates of Use, Occupational License and Fire Fee for each business location will be waived. Individual property owners using these funds cannot sell building for a period of five (5) years after rehabilitation work is complete. If the building is sold during the five-year period, the building owner will repay funds in full. Funds will be guaranteed by lien, mortgage note or deed covenant tied to the property. All work must meet local neighborhood building/appearance codes and performed with applicable permits and inspections. Eligibility: These funds are usually not made for routine maintenance and should be part of a larger scope of improvements to the property or area. Additionally, the property should have an active or soon -to -be active business or residential use located on the property. Businesses receiving business incentive funds must create or maintain one full-time or equivalent job for a resident living in the area for every $30,000 in awarded grant funds. Completion: All projects shall be completed within a 6-month period from the date the contract is signed. Extensions beyond the 6-month completion date can only be made with the approval of the CRA Director. Such approval shall be in writing and noticed to all parties. Project Procedures: CRA= CRA Staff; CNTR = Contractor; PROP = Property Owner; TNT = Tenant A) Application Process CRA meets with Tenant and/or Property Owner, verifies that the property is an eligible address and that the tenant/business and the improvements meet basic criteria for the CRA Business Incentive & Assistance Program. 1.
