Developer assembled a distinguished and best -in -class team of design professionals, with Kobi Karp Architecture and Interior Design serving as the lead architect for the Project. The Project does not require any special zoning or planning approvals from the City of Miami or relief from Miami21, such as waivers, warrants, or exceptions. Accordingly, the Project, as designed, is being constructed "as of right" under Miami 21, and Developer intends to break ground by late spring of 2026. II. Grant Funding Request. Developer recognizes the need for affordable and work force rental units in the City of Miami. Accordingly, in an effort to foster affordability for community residents, Developer is designating 231 of the 576 residential units in the Project as income restricted (collectively, the "Rent -Restricted Units"), with 221 units designated for individuals who earn up to 120% of the Area Median Income (AMI) for Miami -Dade County, and ten (10) of the units for individuals who earn up to 100% of the AMI for Miami -Dade County. To deliver the Project inclusive of the Rent -Restricted Units, Developer is seeking financial support from the CRA in the form of the Grant. Developer will use the Grant to offset a portion of the losses that Developer will incur in connection with the Rent -Restricted Units and to cover a portion of the pre -construction costs and expenses, including, but not limited to, building permit fees, water and sewer fees, and impact fees for the Project. If the Application is approved, Developer requests that the CRA release the Grant to Developer promptly after Developer and the CRA enter into an economic incentive agreement for the Grant on terms mutually acceptable to Developer and the CRA. Without the Grant, Developer may be forced to delay the development of the Project, which in turn will delay the delivery of much needed rent -restricted units to the community. Accordingly, Developer's receipt of the Grant is critical to the success of the Project. 'As determined by the annual income and rent limits established each year by the Florida Housing Finance Corporation.

Suarez February 5, 2026 Page 3 of 3 In exchange for the Grant, Developer will enter into a restrictive covenant that will be recorded against the Property and require Developer and any subsequent owner of the Property to maintain, for no less than 30 years from the date that the covenant is recorded, at least 221 of the residential units in the Project for individuals who earn up to 120% AMI for Miami -Dade County and at least ten (10) of the residential units for individuals who earn up to 100% of the AMI for Miami -Dade County. Developer will have the right to adjust the annual rent for the Rent -Restricted Units to the rent limits established by the Florida Housing Finance Corporation. The proposal for the Grant set forth herein aligns with the CRA's redevelopment objectives outlined in the 2019 Amendment to the Redevelopment Plan, which emphasizes the importance of housing affordability and encourages the creation of high -quality and diverse communities where residents of varying demographics can live and enjoy. Indeed, the Project will serve as a diverse and vibrant community hub that will enhance the economic vitality of the surrounding area. Furthermore, the Project will reduce slum and blight, improve the walkability of the surrounding area, promote non - vehicular means of transportation, and provide employment opportunities for residents. We appreciate the CRA's consideration of the Application. If you have any questions about the Application or the other documents enclosed with this Letter, please contact the undersigned at the phone number or email address listed above.

In accordance with the OMNI CRA's 2019 Redevelopment Plan ("Plan") and Chapter 163, Florida Statutes, the Board will consider funding an amount not to exceed Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00) to A&E District holding Company, LLC, a Florida limited Liability Company, for the properties identified by folio number 01-3136-005-0940, 01-3136-005-0970, 01-3136-005- 0980, 01-3136-005-0950, 01-3136-005-0960, and 01-3136-005-0990 located at Northeast Miami Place, Northeast 15th Street, and Northeast 1st Avenue Miami, Florida, to underwrite the expenditures and costs associated with the construction of a five hundred seventy six (576) unit mixed -income housing project within the OMNI CRA's Redevelopment Area.

We urgently seekyour support in funding much -needed repairs, rehabilitation, and renovations to our historic Church —an institution that has stood as a beacon of faith and moral guidance for the Omni and Overtown communities for 113 years. Background and Historical. Significance Founded in 1912, Greater Israel Bethel Primitive Baptist Church is now in its 113th year of faithful service. In 1952, the new structure was erected on the grounds where it now stands. The Church's story is deeply intertwined with the history of Miami and especially the Overtown and Omni neighborhoods. Through times of challenge and change, our congregation has remained steadfast, providing not only spiritual guidance but also a haven and meeting ground for generations of residents. The Church is more than a building; it is an enduring symbol of hope, resilience, and unity in our community. Community Impact For well over a century, Greater Israel Bethel Primitive Baptist Church has been a pillar of support for countless families. Our ministry and programs promote moral rectitude, personal integrity, and a spirit of service among all who enter our doors. We have established outreach initiatives, youth engagement programs, in-house generated food distributions, and emergency relief efforts for the vulnerable. Prior to downsizing brought on by the limits of our now diminished air conditioning systems and other age -related restrictions, our Church consistently has collaborated with local organizations, and offered Attachment: 19004 Backup (19004 : 4/ths Bid Waiver Grant Funding - Greater Israel Bethel Primitive Baptist Church) Packet Pg. 41 1.3.b space, resources, and encouragement to uplift the wider Omni and Overtown communities.

Villaco SEOPW, Omni an Jorge L. Fernarlde August 24, 2 Legal Opinion - 0 Funds , Executive Director Midtown Community Redevelopment Agencies ty Attorney own CRA Church Renovations - Use of TIFF You have requested a legal opinion on the following question: WHETHER THE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY ("CRA") MAY EXPEND TAX INCREMENT FUNDS ("TIF") TO REPAIR AND/OR RENOVATE CHURCHES LOCATED IN THE OVERTOWN CRA? ANSWER For the reasons set forth below, your question is answered in the affirmative. A community redevelopment agency is a public agency created or designated pursuant to Chapter 163 of the Florida Statutes. The City of Miami Community Redevelopment Agencies ("CRA") are three separate agencies: Southeast Overtown/Parkwest ("SEOPW"), Omni and Midtown. Nonetheless, all three describe their mission as the following: To revitalize specifically designated areas within the CRA boundary through good planning and the implementation of sound infrastructure improvements, thus enabling the CRA to generate successful redevelopment projects, from both the private and public sector, thereby achieving the complete eradication of slums and blight from the targeted areas. The CRA is totally committed to the preservation and enhancement of property values, stimulating the creation of new job opportunities for residents and improving the quality of life of those who reside within the redevelopment neighborhoods. See www.ci.miami.fl.us/cra. Worthy of note, the tax increment funds ("TIF") are the funds used by the CRA to finance or refinance any community redevelopment the CRA undertakes pursuant to the approved community redevelopment plan. The CRA generally derives the TIF proceeds pursuant to ad valorem taxes levied annually via a specified formula. Attachment: 19004 Backup (19004 : 4/ths Bid Waiver Grant Funding - Greater Israel Bethel Primitive Baptist Church) Packet Pg. 61 1.3.b James H. Villacorta, Executive Director Community Redevelopment Agency August 24, 2007 Page 2 of 5 Re: Legal Opinion #07-014. ANALYSIS I. The Florida Constitution and State Funds Florida is subject to Fla. Const. art 1,,§ 3, which states: Religious freedom -- There shall be no law respecting the establishment of religion or prohibiting or penalizing the free exercise thereof. Religious freedom shall not justify practices inconsistent with public morals, peace or safety. No revenue of the state or any political subdivision or agency thereof shall ever be taken from the public treasury directly or indirectly in aid of any church, sect, or religious denomination or in aid of any sectarian institution. This provision, which is also known as the Florida "no -aid" provision, was originally enacted to prohibit the state from using its revenue to benefit religious schools. Recently a Florida court cautioned that its holding regarding the application of the Florida "no -aid" provision, with regard to government vouchers for private school education, should not in any way be read as a comment on the constitutionality of any other government program or activity which involves a religious or sectarian institution. Bush v. Holmes, 886 So. 2d 340, 362 (Fla. 1st DCA 2004). In interpreting this constitutional provision and the question of whether public funds may be utilized in aid of religious, charitable, benevolent and civic or service organizations, the Florida Supreme Court has traditionally considered issues such as the legislative purpose, extent of the funding, and the public benefit involved in the granting and use of said revenue. City of. Boca Raton v. Gidman, 440 So. 2d 1277 (Fla. 1983). In Gidman, a municipal expenditure was challenged on the grounds that it violated section 7.87 of the Boca Raton City Charter, which was at least as restrictive, if not more restrictive, than article I, section 3 of the Florida Constitution concerning the expenditure of public funds. That section reads, "No city funds shall be expended in any manner whatsoever to accrue either directly or indirectly to the benefit of any religious, charitable, benevolent, civic or service organization." Id. at 1279. A municipal charter is the constitution of a city and effectively limits the legislative power of a city in the same manner the state constitution limits the power of the Legislature. See Gontz v. Cooper City, 228 So. 2d 913 (Fla. 4th DCA 1970). The Supreme Court, however, held that the City of Boca Raton's expenditure of public funds for a day care center run by a non-profit organization did not violate the charter provision. Gidman, 440 So. 2d at 1282. The court rejected the argument that the city charter provision was a total bar to spending city funds at the charitable institution and determined in that particular situation that no violation had occurred. Essentially, the court determined that the appropriate analysis must address who the real beneficiary is on a case -by -case basis rather than reading the constitutional language as a total prohibition. Attachment: 19004 Backup (19004 : 4/ths Bid Waiver Grant Funding - Greater Israel Bethel Primitive Baptist Church) 2 Packet Pg. 62 James H. Villacorta, Executive Director Community Redevelopment Agency August 24, 2007 Page 3of5 Re: Legal Opinion #07-014 I+ The court further stated that it would be an unreasonable or ridiculous conclusion to read the charter provision as a total prohibition against the city contracting for these types of services. Id. at 1281. Similarly, in Southside Estates Baptist Church v. Board of Trustees, School Tax District No. 1, In and For Duval County, 115 So. 2d 697 (Fla. 1989), the court rejected an all -or - nothing approach to interpreting these type of statutes as leading to an absurd result and determined that the court must look at the quantum of benefit received by the religious institutign" to determine whether the Florida Constitution has been violated. A case -by -case analysis avoids having to make a choice between unfettered discretion to spend public dollars at sectarian institutions and prohibiting any public dollars from ever being expended at a sectarian institution without weighing the public benefit against any substantial benefit to the institution. Bush v. Holmes at 374. a. Legal Precedent The legal precedent in Florida is to allow revenue, in one form or another, to organizations — including churches — where the benefits from those revenues accrue to the community and are not used for the purposes of furthering religion or other prohibited use, even if there is an incidental benefit to the receiving organization. See Koerner v. Borck, 100 So. 2d 398, 402 (Fla. 1958) (church was allowed to conduct its baptisms on public property; the Florida Supreme Court held that the benefit accrued to the people of the county rather than the church); Johnson v. Presbyterian Homes of Synod of Fla., Inc., 239 So. 2d 256, 261 (Fla. 1970) and Nohrr v. Brevard County Educ. Facilities Auth., 247 So. 2d 304, 307 (Fla. 1971) (Florida Supreme Court declared that any benefit received by religious denominations is merely incidental to the achievement of a public purpose and a state cannot pass a law to aid one religion or all religions but state action to promote the general welfare of society, apart from any religious considerations, is valid, even though religious interests may be indirectly benefited). b. The Lemon Standard and the Establishment Clause The standard used by the Florida courts to determine the legality of utilizing public funds to aid religious organizations is the same standard used by the Federal Courts. This standard is known as the Lemon standard. Lemon v. Kurtzman, 403 U.S. 602 (1971). In order to pass constitutional muster, a statute must: 1. Possess a secular legislative purpose, 2. Must not have as its primary effect advancing or inhibiting religion and 3. Must not give rise to excessive government entanglement with religion. Wiccan Religious Coop. of Florida v. Zingale, 2005 FL S. Ct. Briefs 873 (Fla. 2005); see also Hobby v. State, 761 So. 2d 1234 (Fla. 2d DCA 2000) (Florida court using the Lemon standard); Malicki v. Doe, 814 So. 2d 347, 355 (Fla. 2002) (Florida Supreme Court using the Lemon standard). Attachment: 19004 Backup (19004 : 4/ths Bid Waiver Grant Funding - Greater Israel Bethel Primitive Baptist Church) 3 Packet Pg. 63 1.3.b James H. Villacorta, Executive Director Community Redevelopment Agency August 24, 2007 Page 4 of 5 Re: Legal Opinion #07-014 I The Court has specifically addressed aid, both direct and indirect, in the context of the Establishment Clause. See Zelman v. Simmons -Harris, 536 U.S. 639 (2002): Whether the program administers aid in a neutral fashion, without differentiation based on the religious status of beneficiaries or providers of services and whether beneficiaries of indirect aid have a genuine choice among religious and nonreligious organizations when determining the organization to which they will direct that aid. If the answer to either query is "no," the program should be struck,, down under the Establishment Clause. The analysis above shows that the Florida Constitution is not more restrictive than the United States Constitution and that these types of cases are subject to the federal Establishment Clause Lemon standard. Under this standard, a CRA, in granting funds to the general community for the express purpose of improving the community as a whole, would not be violating the Florida Constitution, even where churches may also benefit from said funds. This is because: 1. Funds would be distributed with the secular purpose of improving the a blighted communities within their respective districts, 2. The primary effect of the granting of funds is not to advance or inhibit religion but rather to improve the aesthetic visage of these blighted communities and 3. The granting of funds would not give rise to excessive government entanglement with religion as the CRA would only be dealing with these churches with regard to church property and/or facilities and not with these churches in their sectarian roles. c. The Free Exercise Clause Another factor weighing in the favor of the CRA granting funds to churches is the United States Free Exercise Clause.' A court cannot violate the United States Constitution by excluding religious organizations from participation in programs. See Church of the Lukumi Babalu Aye, Inc. v. City of Hialeah, 508 U.S. 520 (1993) (holding that a city ordinance was not neutral and restricted religious practice, and therefore was an unconstitutional violation of free exercise). The Establishment Clause, the Free Exercise Clause and the Equal Protection Clause of the United States Constitution act in concert to prohibit state action that restricts, limits, or divests one's legal rights, duties or benefits based on his or her religion. See Bd. of Educ. v. Grumet, 512 U.S. 687, 715 (1994). The Free Exercise Clause requires neutrality and prohibits "[o]fficial action that targets religious conduct for distinctive treatment." See Lukumi Babalu, 508 U.S at 534. The Equal Protection provision of the Fourteenth Amendment prohibits "an unlawful intent to discriminate against [individuals] for an invalid reason, such as their religion." Altman v. Minn. Dept. of Corr., 251 F.3d 1199 (8th Cir. 2001) (quoting in part Batra v. Bd. of Regents, 79 F.3d 717, 721 (8th Cir. 1996)). U.S. Const. amend. 1., supra note 3. 2 "No state shall... deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws." U.S. Const. amend. XIV, § 1. Attachment: 19004 Backup (19004 : 4/ths Bid Waiver Grant Funding - Greater Israel Bethel Primitive Baptist Church) 4 Packet Pg. 64 1.3.b James H. Villacorta, Executive Director Community Redevelopment Agency August 24, 2007 Page 5 of 5 Re: Legal Opinion #07-014 Together, the Free Exercise Clause and the Equal Protection Clause reinforce one another and prohibit state action that singles out religion for discriminatory treatment. Additionally, as per the Free Exercise Clause, sectarian organizations cannot be denied the right to financial aid, which is available by the CRA to the general community for the express purpose of improving the community as a whole. CONCLUSIONS It is the consensus of both the Federal and State Judiciary that a sectarian organization should not be discriminated against when public funds are readily available to the community for a secular legislative purpose, not having as its primary effect advancing or inhibiting religion and not giving rise to excessive government entanglement with religion. Therefore, the granting of funds by the CRA to organizations - including churches - located within the Overtown district, for the overarching purpose of improving tht community as a whole, should be properly allowed.
