They will provide different models to 14 choose from for everyone to review and decide which one is best 15 for the community. 16 17 Mr. Casuscelli indicated that he is an architect, a 18 professor of architecture with a private university, and a 19 counselor of. 600,000 architects throughout the continent. This 20 was in response to Vice Chair Palmer's inquiry. 21 22 6. CRA Director's Report: 23 24 T. Hometown Station 25 Mr. Gibson first referred to a meeting they attended at 26 Public Works where they shared the concerns they had relating to 27 this project. They want to make sure that local contractors are 28 given priority to participate in this project. He said that the 29 CRA was instrumental in recommending some local professionals for 30 the Valencia project and the results were very positive with no 31 complaints relating to performance or products used; and Mr. Bob 32 Miller, President of First Florida was extremely pleased with the 33 quality of workers.from this area. Another concern of the CRA had 34 to do with possible street closing. One of the businesses that 35 would be immediately impacted with this is the Great Western 36 Hotel. 37 38 Chairperson Russell said that she had been discussing this 39 very issue with. the City Manager, about rerouting traffic 40 specially during construction, and that a traffic study was 41 requested from the project managers that are there already so 42 that we would know what the impact is going to be during 43 construction, before we grant any permits to close any of our 44 streets or narrow the rights -of -way. 45 46 As per affordable housing consideration according to the 47 Comprehensive Plan, Mr. Gibson continued, there is a request from 48 the City that in phasing off the construction, affordable housing 49 be given consideration. He said that we need to make. sure that 50 affordable housing is included within this particular project. 51 Mr. Gibson said that the mission 'of the CRA is to ensure that 52 this City is built up in complete balanced perspective and Church COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY 3 MINUTES July 29, 2004 1 Street is an example of that balance that they are trying to 2 accomplish. 3 4 Member Sherar said that one of the reasons why he and a 5 group of people were in favor of this project is because it was 6 not presented. as a phase in project. He said that they are going 7 to build that office building, which they told us that there were 8 going to be on our tax base, and now he is hearing that they are 9 going to rent it to the County and that it is not going to be on 10 the tax base? 11 12 Chairperson Russell said that this issue will be dealt with 13 at the Commission level. 14 15 Member Sherar then continued saying that in fact affordable 16 housing is a big component, but it is also a big problem, and the 17 CRA needs to get behind it and get this project looking the way 18 it is supposed to be looking. He said that ' the ' re are measures 19 that may be taken, such as' having the contractr posting a $1 20 million bond to make sure that this project is going to be built. 21 22 Chairperson Russell explained that this project is still in 23 its conceptual stages but they are not ready to break ground yet, 24 they are just lining up a construction and permitting schedule. 25 It was approved by the County because of its transit designation 26 and it has been around for about five years. She said that she 27 asked the Manager to bring them to speed on the results of the 28 meeting with staff and the representatives from Hometown Inc. It 29 is complicated and different from anything that we have handled 30 before because of the merger with the County and a big 31 construction around the transit station, she continued, and it 32 will probably be a good idea to schedule a workshop with all of 33 the Board to bring everybody up to speed with this project. 34 35 II. South Miami Gardens Survey (update) 36 A. Richard Miller, Consultant 37 38 Mr. Gibson introduced Consultant Richard Miller who 39 presented an. overview of the results from a new South Miami 40 Gardens Survey. He said that this new survey which was conducted 41 this past May, indicates that about 52 percent for 25 of the 48 42 families of the household that were there, were in favor of the 43 project. There were also some people that did not want to 44 participate In the survey. Mr. Miller said that as a whole, the 45 recent survey shows that the majority of residents still favor 46 the development of the plan and that they understand the process. 47 At this time, he indicted, that the housing agency has changed 48 leaderships and the former executive director has retired and the 49 former deputy director is now the interim executive director. He 50 then said that as soon as everybody.come together in favor of the 51 project, including this Board and the County Commissioner for 52 this district, then the Board of County Commissioners will be 53 notified, who will in turn involve the housing agency staff to 54 proceed with what is necessary to bring.this about. COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY 4 MINUTES - July 29, 2004 1 2 Mr. Miller then said that St. Alban's Daycare is not 3 included in the area, in response to Member Cobb's question. 4 5 Member Sherar said that St. Alban's Daycare, in one of the 6 conceptual drawings, is shown as knocked down and Mr. Miller 7 responded.that he is not aware of that at all. 8 9 Member Sherar then asked Mr. Miller as to how they are going 10 to guarantee that after those buildings are demolished that 11 affordable housing, in fact, will be in there. Mr. Miller 12 indicated that this would be part of the' responsibility of the 13 Miami -Dade Housing Agency to make sure that it happens, and that 14 will be included in the overall plan. Mr. Miller said that part 15 of what is involved in this process is that there has to be an 16 approval from the US Department of Housing and Urban Development 17 (HUD) before any resident can be relocated, or before a building 18 can be torn down. Since HUD is going to be involved in providing 19 some sort of subsidy, they are going to make sure that this thing 20 happens. There is also a law which deals with issues relating to 21 people who are displaced by government action, particularly, a 22 public housing resident. 23 24 Member Bryan asked Mr. Miller as to whether he has copies of 25 the signed surveys from the residents and he, said that he does. 26 She .then said that a lot of the people are saying that they are 27 concerned with the rent as to whether it will be affordable..Mr. 28 Miller said that those were isolated comments, and not all of the 29 residents are saying that. 30 31 Chairperson' Russell then directed Mr. Gibson to get two 32 things for all members of the Board: that he responds to Member 33 Sherar's request for copies of the signed plans; and, also a copy 34 of the residents' surveys attached to that for each Board member. 35 36 About the concern on the rent issue, Mr. Miller added that 37 the residents were told very specifically that if they were going 38 to move into the public housing units, that they would pay no 39 more in rent than what they are paying right now. The only reason 40 for which they would be paying more rent would depend on their 41 income. This is by law, and it is roughly 25 percent of their 42 salary. 43 44 Member' Sherar reiterated his concern about, the possible 45 demolition of St. Alban's Daycare. Center as shown on the 46 conceptual plans. Mr. Miller said that St. Alban's is not part of 47 the South Miami Gardens development. Chairperson Russell 48 indicated that perhaps the Board should take a look at what staff 49 has and that this issue will be addressed in a different type of 50 format. 51 52 III. RFP /Q SMCRA Legal Services 53 A. Deadline 7/29/04 54 COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY 5 MINUTES - July 29, 2004 1 Mr. Gibson indicated that they had received two proposals 2 from legal firms in response to the REF /Q: 3 4 Louise R. Caro, Esq.; and 5 Weiss Serota Helfman Pastoriza Guedes Cole & Boriiske, P.A. 6 7 IV. Rambo Home Closing 8 A. 6/23 9 10 Mr. Gibson announced that the Rambo family has already moved 11 into their home and that is very good news. 12 13 Ms. Rambo addressed the Board with some emotional and 14 grateful words. She said that the home is beautiful and 15 comfortable and invited the Board to come and check it out. 16 17 V. Website update 18 A. Agenda 19 20 Mr. Gibson announced that they will be updating their 21 website with the assistance of MIS Manager Gremaf Reyes. Among 22 other things, they will now be posting the CRA Agenda on a 23 regular basis. He said that Mr. Reyes is another one of our 24 `unsung' heroes in the midst and he has been very accommodating 25 and helpful with them, Mr. Gibson added. 26 27 VI. Madison Square Saturday Update 28 Mr. Gibson referred to the Madison Square Saturday project 29 as an overwhelming success. He then commended Mr. McCants for his 30 hard work and enthusiasm and for helping to make this project a 31 reality. He then quoted Alvaro Santistevan who referred to the 32 project by saying that "this is a transitional stepping stone." 33 Mr. Gibson indicated that they have some vendors from the area 34 who are doing some very good business, and who need to be taken 35 to the next level, to a business incubator. 36 37 Mr. McCants, adding to Mr. Gibson's words regarding Madison 38 Square Saturdays said that they have a very good team put 39 together as far as the vendors are concerned. They also have the 40 Department of Elections there assisting with the registration of 41 new voters. 42 43 Mr. Gibson also indicated that City Manager Maria Davis has 44 been extremely helpful assisting them behind the scenes, 45 particularly by announcing it at the City Commission meetings. 46 47 With no further comments or discussion the CRA Director's 48 Report was closed.. 49 50 6. CRA General Counsel's Report: 51 COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY 6 MINUTES - July 29, 2004 1 Counsel Boutsis indicated that she has provided to each of 2 the Board Members with status of the CRA foreclosures and quiet 3 title actions. For the next meeting she will be putting on the 4 Agenda a resolution on item no. 11 which is the CRA versus Rosa 5 Lee Jackson at '1690 SW 63rd Street. She said that she would like 6 to be able to purchase the tax certificates back for the owners 7 through the County Appraiser's office and this involves certain 8 procedure which she will follow. 9 10 I. Leroy Taylor and Aries Properties update 11 12 II. Update of Greater Miami Neighborhoods Properties 13 14 Counsel Boutsis then referred to item no. 9 which is Aries 15 Insurance. She said that she would like to discuss this other 16 foreclosure with the Board at the next CRA meeting. She said that 17 she had discussions, with the receiver•, and the problem is that 18 they want it to be used for an affordable housing type item and 19 this is in the area where we have Madison Square and the purpose 20 from the CRA standpoint is to use it for commercial development. 21 Therefore, she will be discussing it at the next meeting to see 22 what the Board would like to do. 23 24 Counsel Boutsis indicated that the last two items that she 25 would like to add on at the next meeting would be to interview 26 the two applicants for legal services. 27 28 Counsel Boutsis then requested that item no. 11 on the 29 Agenda be pulled. 30 31 32 CONSENT AGENDA 33 34 (There are no items) 35 36 37 RESOLUTION (S) 39 CRA 05 -04 -132 40 7.

Vice Chair Palmer said that even though she supports the resolution, she would like to have some clarification about the accounts. Mr. McCants explained that they have a carryover from last year which they use to supplement the shortcomings of this year. This step has been taken-since this was not included as a full -time position at the beginning of this fiscal year. Member Bryan asked as to whether it, would be feasible to take the full amount from one single account rather than disturb two different accounts. Mr. McCants explained that this is the way that it was set up because they were dealing with a ten percent administrative cap and they have to do that in order to make it feasible for the part - time— posi_tion-._._._.The__fuLl t.ime.. position will be budgeted for next year and this will not be necessary.

Moved by Chair Russell and seconded by Member Sherar to approve this item. Mr. Gibson explained that this scholarship was named in honor of former Commissioner and CRA Board Member James T. Bowman. He indicated that instead of awarding one single individual they decided to divide it into $500 increments. He then urged the Board to support this resolution. COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY 8 MINUTES - July 29, 2004 1 Member Cobb asked as to whether they would in the future be 2 putting a cap on the four. Mr. Gibson and Mr. McCants indicated 3 that this is the first time that they receive four complete 4 applications. In the event that next year only one person applies 5 or qualifies for the scholarship, the whole amount of $2,000 6 would be awarded to that one person. 7 8 Vice Chair Palmer asked as to what is the process.being used 9 this year with regard to the awards. Mr. McCants indicated that 10 the process that they used last year was based on reimbursement 11 but they later found that this' was very difficult for the 12 students. What has been discussed and proposed is to pay the 13 students up front, provided that the Board agrees with this 14 method, otherwise he would like to have the Board's direction as 15 to how they would like to disburse this fund. Vice Chair Palmer 16 indicated that she is more interested in the process for 17 evaluating each application. Mr. McCants indicated that staff 18 evaluates each and every one -of them very carefully and that they 19 have to meet all the requirements stated in the forms, as well as 20 a deadline that they must meet. 21 22 Chair Russell said that disbursing the money up front is 23 fine as long as staff monitors how the students are doing in 24 school. 25 26 As far as allowing the same applicant to reapply, Chair 27 Russell said that. there is not a.provision addressing that but 28 that they will be discussing it at a later time. 29 30 With no further comments or discussion the motion to approve 31 this item passed by a 6 -0 vote. 32 33 Member Wiscombe: Absent 34 Member Cobb: Yea 35 Member Sherar: Yea 36 Member Bryan: Yea 37 Member Birts- Cooper: Yea 38 Chairperson Russell: Yea 39 Vice Chair Palmer: Yea 40 41 42 CRA 07 -04 -134 43 9.

COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY 9 MINUTES - July 29, 2004 1 2 Mr. Gibson said that Moses Higgins is a very 3 industrious young man and constitutes a success story. Mr. 4 McCants indicated that this is the first time in the history 5 of the CRA that an applicant has taken advantage of all 6 three levels. Typically, people apply for the first level, 7 which does not require a matching fund. We have had limited 8 people that have taken advantage of the second level, 9 requiring a matching part. But in this case, he is taking 10 advantage of the third level and he will be doing major 11 repairs. 12 13 Vice Chair Palmer said that some people have expressed 14 to her that they might not be taking advantage of this 15 program because they do not understand its process. She then 16 recommended to try and educate the community more so that 17 more people may benefit from it. 18 19 Member Sherar said that one of his concerns is the fact 20 that the applicant is choosing a metal roof which might be 21 more expensive than a shingle roof. Another of his concerns 22 is to ascertain that people who are being assisted with 23 these types of grants that they should be required to keep 24 their property for certain length of time. Counsel Boutsis 25 indicated that this provision is included in the grant. 26 27 Chairperson Russell moved an amendment to Section Two, 28 line 33 of the resolution, seconded by Vice Chairperson 29 Palmer, to add the following language: "upon execution of 30 the CRA's rehabilitation grant agreement, which 'agreement 31 shall be recorded with Miami -Dade County's recording 32 office."

She said that this is a project that 34 means a lot to her since she has many friends who live 35 there and who are single mothers. She indicated that 36 the residents there are not in favor of relocating out 37 of South Miami. She said that the survey that was taken 38 before did not outlined exactly what this plan 39 involved; therefore she urged the Board to have a town 40 hall meeting with all of the residents of South Miami 41 Gardens, later than 6:00 p.m. because most of them 42 work, and suggested the Community Center as a preferred 43 site to hold the meeting. 44 45 Michelle Dozier spoke on behalf of the South Miami 46 Gardens residents, indicated that nobody had been 47 notified about tonight's meeting.
