City Resolution and Site Authorization On September 26, 2024, the City of Miami Commission approved a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a license agreement with Miami Bethany Community Services, Inc. (MBCS) for the use of City -owned properties located at 850 and 920 NW 23rd Street.

Phase 1— Immediate Site Activation (0-45 Days) Phase 1 focuses on rapid, limited activation of the site through essential improvements that enable immediate service delivery without impacting the existing building structure. This includes installation of temporary utilities, site clearance, and deployment of refrigerated container units to establish a Food Store operation for low-income families. These actions are designed to provide immediate relief to vulnerable residents while preparing the site for subsequent recreational use. Phase 2 — Community Sports Activation (0-90 Days) Phase 2 consists of the development and activation of two Soccer-5 community fields and supporting infrastructure to deliver structured, daily programming for at -risk youth and families. The fields will operate up to 14 hours per day, serving over 130 youth and families daily and benefiting more than 40,000 residents annually. This phase directly advances Miami For Everyone priority areas by increasing youth engagement, providing safe recreational spaces, reducing exposure to crime and unsafe environments, and strengthening community cohesion across District 1 and surrounding neighborhoods.

The appointment of members or alternate members of a committee requires the vote of a majority of the directors then in office, provided that a quorum is present. The Board of Directors may also designate one or more advisory committees that do not have the authority of the Board. However, no committee, regardless of Board resolution, may: a) Approve of any action that, pursuant to applicable Law, would also require the affirmative vote of the members of the Board if this were a membership vote.

In addition this Committee shall identify potential sources of funds, take an active role in enhancing the Board's awareness of fundraising opportunities, explore opportunities for enhanced public relations and fundraising, and provide an annual review of the performance of the Organization's fundraising plan. ARTICLE 9 - STANDARD OF CARE General A director shall perform all the duties of a director, including, but not limited to, duties as a member of any committee of the Board on which the director may serve, in such MBCS' BYLAWS (Revised Nov. 2024) Pagina 13 de 22 a manner as the director deems to be in the best interest of the Corporation/ Organization and with such care, including reasonable inquiry, as an ordinary, prudent, and reasonable person in a similar situation may exercise under similar circumstances. In the performance of the duties of a director, a director shall be entitled to rely on information, opinions, reports, or statements, including financial statements and other financial data, in each case prepared or presented by: a) One or more officers or employees of the Corporation/Organization whom the director deems to be reliable and competent in the matters presented; b) Counsel, independent accountants, or other persons, as to the matters which the director deems to be within such person's professional or expert competence; or c) A committee of the Board upon which the director does not serve, as to matters within its designated authority, which committee the director deems to merit confidence, so long as in any such case the director acts in good faith, after reasonable inquiry when the need may be indicated by the circumstances, and without knowledge that would cause such reliance to be unwarranted. Except as herein provided in Article 8 - Standard of Care, any person who performs the duties of a director in accordance with the above shall have no liability based upon any failure or alleged failure to discharge that person's obligations as a director, including, without limitation of the following, any actions or omissions which exceed or defeat a public or charitable purpose to which the Corporation/Organization, or assets held by it, are dedicated. Loans The Corporation/Organization shall not make any loan of money or property to, or guarantee the obligation of, any director or officer, unless approved by the Florida Attorney General; provided, however, that the Corporation/Organization may advance money to a director or officer of the Corporation/Organization or any subsidiary for expenses reasonably anticipated to be incurred in the performance of the duties of such officer or director so long as such individual would be entitled to be reimbursed for such expenses absent that advance. Conflict of Interest MBCS' BYLAWS (Revised Nov. 2024) Pagina 14 de 22 The purpose of the Conflict of Interest policy is to protect the Corporation/ Organization's interest when it is contemplating entering into a transaction or arrangement that might benefit the private interest of one of its officers or directors, or that might otherwise result in a possible excess benefit transaction. This policy is intended to supplement but not replace any applicable state and federal laws governing conflict of interest applicable to nonprofit and charitable corporations/ organizations and is not intended as an exclusive statement of responsibilities. Restriction on Interested Directors Not more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the persons serving on the Board of Directors at any time may be interested persons. An interested person is, 1. any person currently being compensated by the Corporation/Organization for services rendered to it within the previous twelve (12) months, whether as a full-time or part- time employee, independent contractor, or otherwise, excluding any reasonable compensation paid to a director; and 2. any brother, sister, parent, ancestor, descendent, spouse, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, son -in- law, mother-in-law, or father- in-law of any such person. However, any violation of the provisions of this section shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any transaction entered into by the interested person. Duty to Disclose In connection with any actual or possible conflict of interest, an interested person must disclose the existence of the financial interest and be given the opportunity to disclose all material facts to the directors who are considering the proposed transaction or arrangement. Establishing a Conflict of Interest After the disclosure of the financial interest and all material facts, and after any discussion with the interested person, the interested person shall leave the Board meeting while the potential conflict of interest is discussed and voted upon. The remaining Board members shall decide if a conflict of interest exists. Addressing a Conflict of Interest In the event that the Board should establish that a proposed transaction or arrangement establishes a conflict of interest, the Board shall then proceed with the following actions: MBCS' BYLAWS (Revised Nov. 2024) Pagina 15 de 22 a) Any interested person may render a request or report at the Board meeting, but upon completion of said request or report the individual shall be excused while the Board discusses the information and/or material presented and then votes on the transaction or arrangement proposed involving the possible conflict of interest. b) The Chair of the Board of the Board shall, if deemed necessary and appropriate, appoint a disinterested person or committee to investigate alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement. c) After exercising due diligence, the Board shall determine whether the Corporation/ Organization can obtain with reasonable efforts a more advantageous transaction or arrangement from a person or entity that would not give rise to a conflict of interest. d) If a more advantageous transaction or arrangement is not reasonably possible under circumstances not producing a conflict of interest, the Board shall determine by a majority vote of the disinterested directors whether the transaction or arrangement is in the best interest of the Corporation/ Organization, for its own benefit, and whether it is fair and reasonable. It shall make its decision as to whether to enter into the transaction arrangement in conformity with this determination. Violations of Conflict of Interest Policy Should the Board have reasonable cause to believe an interested person has failed to disclose actual or possible conflicts of interest, the Board shall then inform the interested person of the basis for such belief and afford the interested person an opportunity to explain the alleged failure to disclose. If, after hearing the interested person's explanation, and after making further investigation as may be warranted in consideration of the circumstances, the Board determines the interested person intentionally failed to disclose an actual or possible conflict of interest, it shall take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action. Procedures and Records All minutes of the Board Meetings, when applicable, shall contain the following information: a) The names of all the persons who disclosed or otherwise were found to have a financial interest in connection with an actual or possible conflict of MBCS' BYLAWS (Revised Nov. 2024) Pagina 16 de 22 interest, the nature of the financial interest, any action taken to determine whether a conflict of interest was present, and the Board's decision as to whether a conflict of interest in fact existed. b) The names of the persons who were present for discussions and any votes relating to the transaction or arrangement, the content of the discussions, including any alternatives to the proposed transaction or arrangement, and a record of any vote taken in connection with the proceedings.

PRESENTED TO Commissioner Miguel A. Gabela SUBMITTED BY Miami Bethany Community Services TARGET IMPACT Commissioner Miguel A.

For more than four decades, the property remained abandoned — a problem site used for illegal dumping, drug activity, and occupation by homeless individuals. The City of Miami Commission approved a resolution granting use to Miami Bethany Community Services (MBCS) for the development of community -based programs. More than 50 MBCS volunteers cleaned, cleared, painted, and secured the property — removing multiple truckloads of debris and restoring safe conditions. THE OBSTACLE ONE CONDITION. ONE OPPORTUNITY. A\ THE 1980 DEED CONDITION The only remaining obstacle to formalizing the use agreement is the condition in the 1980 Warrantee Deed — which requires the property to be used for sports facilities or related purposes. TURNED INTO ADVANTAGE Rather than a limitation, this requirement creates an immediate opportunity to activate the property through community sports programming — aligning the deed directly with the community's needs.
