This property sits within the heart of the Overtown community and has long served as an affordable housing option for local residents. However, due to aging infrastructure, outdated systems, and prolonged wear, the property now requires a full gut renovation to restore habitability, ensure safety, and revitalize the surrounding neighborhood. rIritialtrilillintilLit 1�'lli�iifllllII . ,III ���. i .� • i IIIIIIIIIIIIMI I .1011111111 �I II 1ion .7i±�,i� 1111 4 . - ;R ,6 ,'S•r' r,litr;.., !r a or.rls• ii•,!!.nr' r Attachment: 18890 Backup (18890 : Affordable Housing Project —1445 NW 1st Avenue) Packet Pg. 14 1.1.b Property Overview Address: 1445 NW 1 Ct, Miami, FL 33136 Folio: 01-3125-048-1690 Owner: Roger Jones (Owner since 2002) Current Use: 15 residential units (12 occupied & 3 vacant) Zoning & Location: Located within the Omni CRA redevelopment boundary Need for Affordable Housing in Overtown Historic Overtown is experiencing an acute affordable housing crisis driven by rising rents, redevelopment pressures, and the loss of naturally occurring affordable housing. Longtime residents, many of whom earn well c below the Area Median Income (AMI), are increasingly at risk of displacement. et The rehabilitation of 1445 NW 1 Ct directly addresses this challenge by preserving 15 existing rental units and placing long-term affordability protections on the property. This investment ensures housing stability for legacy residents while preventing conversion to fully market -rate units. Project Scope The property requires a comprehensive renovation, which includes: • Complete demolition and rebuilding of all unit interiors • Full replacement of electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems o' • New roofing, windows, doors, and stucco/exterior upgrades • Updated kitchens and bathrooms with new fixtures and appliances • New flooring, insulation, and drywall throughout • Code -compliant upgrades, safety systems (fire alarms, egress), and accessibility improvements • Exterior fencing, landscaping, and site lighting for improved safety and aesthetics rn 00 co This project will transform a blighted, structure into 15 high -quality residential units, preserving affordability while contributing to the neighborhood's stability and long-term growth. The project will also include impact- a. resistant windows and doors to meet hurricane safety standards and ensure long-term durability. Affordability Commitment (30%-80% AMI — Studio l -Bedroom Units) CD 03 All 15 units (3 Studio, 9 one -bedrooms and 3 two -bedrooms) will be reserved for households earning between 50% and 80% of AMI.

This request is aligned with the CRA's mission to eliminate blight, support affordable housing, and reinvest in legacy stakeholders and local property owners who have long been committed to the Overtown community. This investment will allow Mr. Jones to not only restore the property to livable condition but also offer long- term affordability protections to ensure these units remain accessible to low- and moderate -income residents. He is open to a long-term deed restriction on rent affordability as a condition of CRA funding.

Mr. Jones has owned the property since 2002 and is committed to restoring it into a high -quality residential and commercial asset that serves the Overtown community. The building includes seven residential units (6 one -bedroom/ one -bath & 1 4-bedroom/ two -bath), all of which are currently in a state of severe disrepair. Due to decades of wear, structural issues, and outdated systems, the building requires a complete interior and exterior overhaul to bring it up to code and ensure its long-term habitability and value to the neighborhood.

Longtime residents, many of whom earn well below the Area Median Income (AMI), are increasingly at risk of displacement. The rehabilitation of 1502 NW 1 Ct directly addresses this challenge by preserving 7 existing rental units and placing long- term affordability protections on the property. This investment ensures housing stability for legacy residents while preventing conversion to fully market -rate units. Project Scope The property requires a comprehensive renovation, which includes: • Complete demolition and rebuilding of all unit interiors • Full replacement of electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems • New roofing, windows, doors, and stucco/exterior upgrades • Updated kitchens and bathrooms with new fixtures and appliances • New flooring, insulation, and drywall throughout • Code -compliant upgrades, safety systems (fire alarms, egress), and accessibility improvements • Exterior fencing, landscaping, and site lighting for improved safety and aesthetics This project will transform a blighted, structure into 7 high -quality residential units, preserving affordability while contributing to the neighborhood's stability and long-term growth. The project will also include impact -resistant windows and doors to meet hurricane safety standards and ensure long-term durability. Affordability Commitment (30%-80% AMI — 1-Bedroom Units) All 7 units will be reserved for households earning between 50% and 60% of AMI. Affordability will be secured through a 10-year regulatory agreement acceptable to the Omni CRA.

This strategic investment would restore eight critical community -serving units in the heart of Overtown, preserving affordable housing, and helping to stabilize a historically significant block that continues to face displacement pressures and underinvestment. This investment will allow Mr. Jones to not only restore the property to livable condition but also offer long-term affordability protections to ensure these units remain accessible to low- and moderate -income residents. He is open to a long-term deed restriction on rent affordability as a condition of CRA funding.

Suarez Executive Director Date: February 5, 2026 File: 18892 Subject: Affordable Housing Project — 2003 N. Miami Avenue Enclosures: 18892 Exhibit A 18892 Backup 18892 Notice to the Public BACKGROUND: This memorandum recommends that the Board of Commissioners of the Omni Community Redevelopment Agency ("CRA") adopt a Resolution, by a four -fifths (4/5ths) vote following an advertised public hearing, to approve the Executive Director's recommendation. The Board is asked to find that competitive negotiation is not practicable or advantageous under Sections 18- 85 and 18-86 of the City of Miami Code, waive competitive sealed bidding, and authorize the Executive Director to amend the existing grant agreement to allocate additional funding in an amount not to exceed Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) in additional funding for the mixed - use affordable housing project at 2003 North Miami Avenue, Miami, Florida 33127 ("Project"). The Project includes ground -floor commercial space and ten (10) residential units, eight (8) at 80% of Area Median Income ("AMI") and two (2) at 100% AMI. The affordability period will be extended to fifty (50) years, starting at the issuance of the Temporary or final Certificate of Occupancy, whichever comes first. Subsequent to the CRA's initial grant award, the Grantee has experienced unforeseen and unanticipated project costs, primarily attributable to additional requirements imposed by the City of Miami to bring the property into full code compliance, including life safety, structural, and building systems upgrades. These circumstances have created a funding gap that necessitates additional CRA assistance in order to complete the Project as previously approved. This Project aligns with the 2019 Redevelopment Plan, supports the rehabilitation of a blighted mixed -use property, and ensures long-term housing affordability in the redevelopment area. Packet Pg. 39 1.3 RECOMMENDATION: Based on the foregoing, it is recommended that the Board of Commissioners of the Omni Community Redevelopment Agency adopt the attached resolution. By a four -fifths (4/5ths) affirmative vote, the Resolution ratifies, approves, and confirms the Executive Director's finding and authorizes the allocation of additional grant funding in an amount not to exceed Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) to Kush Property LLC for the completion of the Project and the extension of the affordability period to fifty (50) years.

A INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM Carlos Suarez Executive Director TO: Board Chair Damian Pardo DATE: February 12, 2026 and Members of the CRA Board FROM: Carlos Suarez Executive Director SUBJECT: 4/5ths Bid Waiver Grant for Additional Funding Request — 2003 N. Miami Avenue Project BACKGROUND: This memorandum recommends that the Board of Commissioners of the Omni Community Redevelopment Agency ("CRA") adopt a Resolution, by a four -fifths (4/5ths) vote following an advertised public hearing, to approve the Executive Director's recommendation. The Board is asked to find that competitive negotiation is not practicable or advantageous under Sections 18- 85 and 18-86 of the City of Miami Code, waive competitive sealed bidding, and authorize the Executive Director to amend the existing grant agreement to allocate additional funding in an amount not to exceed Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) in additional funding for the mixed - use affordable housing project at 2003 North Miami Avenue, Miami, Florida 33127 ("Project"). The Project includes ground -floor commercial space and ten (10) residential units, eight (8) at 80% of Area Median Income ("AMI") and two (2) at 100% AMI. The affordability period will be extended to fifty (50) years, starting at the issuance of the Temporary or final Certificate of Occupancy, whichever comes first. Subsequent to the CRA's initial grant award, the Grantee has experienced unforeseen and unanticipated project costs, primarily attributable to additional requirements imposed by the City of Miami to bring the property into full code compliance, including life safety, structural, and building systems upgrades. These circumstances have created a funding gap that necessitates additional CRA assistance in order to complete the Project as previously approved. This Project aligns with the 2019 Redevelopment Plan, supports the rehabilitation of a blighted mixed -use property, and ensures long-term housing affordability in the redevelopment area. RECOMMENDATION: Based on the foregoing, it is recommended that the Board of Commissioners of the Omni Community Redevelopment Agency adopt the attached resolution. By a four -fifths (4/5ths) affirmative vote, the Resolution ratifies, approves, and confirms the Executive Director's finding and authorizes the allocation of additional grant funding in an amount not to exceed Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000.00) to Kush Property LLC for the completion of the Project and the extension of the affordability period to fifty (50) years.

Suarez Executive Director Date: February 4, 2026 File: 18893 Subject: Approve Amended FY 2025- 2026 General Operating & Tax Increment Fund Budgets Enclosures: 18893 Exhibit A BACKGROUND: The Second Amendment to the Interlocal between the City of Miami, Miami -Dade County, and the Omni Redevelopment District Community Redevelopment Agency ("CRA"), executed and effective May 8, 2025, required the CRA to remit to the Miami -Dade County One Million Four Hundred Thirty Thousand Dollars and Zero Cents ($1,430,000.00) for payment of the Performing Arts Center Construction Bond Debt Service.

This budget amendment separates the PAC bond payment but does not increase the overall budget appropriation. The budget amendment is time sensitive as the budget must be approved by Miami -Dade County and the payment must be remitted by March 31, 2026. JUSTIFICATION: The Second Amendment to the Interlocal agreement requires annual funding of the PAC Bond Debt Service in the amount of One Million Four Hundred Thirty Thousand Dollars and Zero Cents ($1,430,000.00), through September 30, 2027, payable by March 31st of each calendar year.

BACKGROUND: The Omni Redevelopment District Community Redevelopment Agency ("CRA") is responsible for carrying out community redevelopment activities and projects within its redevelopment area in accordance with the CRA Redevelopment Plan ("Plan"). The CRA, through Resolution Nos.

The Plan highlights the Purple Shirts Program as a successful initiative that improves neighborhood conditions and provides employment opportunities for individuals experiencing homelessness. Chapman Partnership has submitted a proposal and will assume full responsibility for employing all program workers, paying wages at the rate established by the CRA, maintaining all required liability insurance, and providing comprehensive wraparound services, including case management as well as employment and educational support. JUSTIFICATION: The Omni Redevelopment District Community Redevelopment Agency ("CRA") works to improve conditions within its boundaries by tackling slum and blight and creating a cleaner, safer environment for the community.

Transitioning management of the Purple Shirts Program to Chapman Partnership ensures continuity of services, supports the CRA's goals of maintaining clean and safe public spaces, and reinforces the agency's commitment to providing employment pathways that help stabilize and uplift vulnerable individuals within the community. FUNDING: The grant funding will be a total amount not to exceed amount of $741,950.00, subject to the availability of funding, from the 2025-2026 Omni Tax Increment Fund Budget.
