INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM

Executive Director
TO: Board Chair Damian Pardo and DATE: May 28th, 2026
Members of the CRA Board
FROM: Carlos I. Suarez
Executive Director
SUBJECT: Resolution Authorizing Sublease
Agreement with Wynwood House Cuts LLC
for Wynwood Works
BACKGROUND:
On April 10, 2025, the Board of Commissioners of the Omni Redevelopment District Community
Redevelopment Agency ("CRA") adopted Resolution No. CRA-R-25-0018, which authorized the
Executive Director to execute a lease agreement for approximately Five Thousand, One Hundred
Fifty -Three (5,153) square feet of rentable retail and/or commercial space located within the CRA
Redevelopment Area on the property identified by folio number 01-3125-100-0010, also referred to
as Wynwood Works (the "Property"), for a term not to exceed seventy-two (72) months.
The CRA subsequently issued a public notice soliciting prospective tenants for the Property
pursuant to Section 163.380, Florida Statutes. The solicitation period closed on April 13, 2026, and
no responses or proposals were received by the CRA during the public solicitation period.
The CRA desires to activate and utilize the Property in a manner that promotes economic activity,
entrepreneurship, commercial activation, and neighborhood revitalization within the boundaries of
the CRA. Wynwood House Cuts LLC, a Florida Limited Liability Company, has expressed interest
in occupying and operating within approximately One Thousand, Six Hundred Thirty -Five (1,635)
square feet of retail and/or commercial space at the Property. The proposed sublease would
authorize a rental amount not to exceed Eight Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($8,000.00) per month,
for a term approved by the Executive Director.
JUSTIFICATION:
Based on the expiration of the thirty (30) day notice for the disposition of real property, or an interest
therein, within the CRA Redevelopment Area pursuant to Section 163.380, Florida Statutes, and
the absence of responses or proposals received during the public solicitation period, the Board of
Commissioners is urged to approve the resolution ratifying, approving, and confirming the Executive
Director's recommendation and finding that competitive negotiation methods and procedures are
not practicable or advantageous to the CRA.
The resolution, by a four -fifths (4/5ths) affirmative vote after an advertised public hearing, waives
the requirements for competitive sealed bidding as not being practicable or advantageous to the
CRA and authorizes the Executive Director to negotiate and execute a sublease agreement with
Wynwood House Cuts LLC, together with any additional necessary documents, modifications,
amendments, agreements, or instruments, all in forms acceptable to General Counsel.
The proposed sublease supports the CRA's goal of activating commercial space within the
Redevelopment Area, promoting local entrepreneurship and economic activity, and advancing
neighborhood revitalization through the productive use of space at Wynwood Works.
FUNDING:
No CRA funding allocation is required. The proposed sublease is anticipated to generate rental
revenue in an amount not to exceed Eight Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($8,000.00) per month, as
established by the Executive Director and subject to the terms of the sublease agreement.
