South Miami Gardens Resident Involvement Activities Background The City of South Miami has consistently directed actions to fully involve its residents in the ongoing Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) planning activities. In addition to conventional methods of fostering citizen involvement, The City of South Miami made special efforts to involve residents of South Miami Gardens (SMG) in CRA activities. These past and ongoing efforts to specifically involve SMG residents in the multifamily redevelopment plan are viewed by the City of South Miami as necessary and appropriate. Current Efforts The City of South Miami used the'following efforts to involve SMG residents in its recently approved multifamily redevelopment plan: • Coordinated resident activities with the SMG site manager Sandra Frazier • Extended open invitation to SMG residents to various community /public meetings held to discuss CRA planning efforts • Held meetings with SMG resident council, president and vice president in Summer of 2001 for a briefing on CRA proposed meetings and planning activities • Invited SMG residents to special meeting in an effort to assure their attendance during the August 2001 community workshop designated to develop basis for the multifamily plan • Invited SMG residents to August 2001 community workshop • Requested meeting of SMG residents in January 2002 to schedule group meetings explaining newly adopted multifamily redevelopment plan • Held two group meetings of SMG residents in February 2002 • Provided special copies of multifamily redevelopment plan to SMG residents for their review • Issued survey forms (after explaining multifamily redevelopment plan) to SMG residents in February and March 2002 • Met with SMG families in the Police Workstation to explain multifamily plan • Visited SMG families (that did not attend group meetings).on an individual basis in their homes to explain multifamily redevelopment plan and its possible impact on SMG residents • Advised SMG residents to call City of South Miami community involvement specialist James McCants at any time with further questions about the multifamily redevelopment plan • Residents who were issued but have not completed surveys were visited up to five times over a two week period at varying hours of the day to collect the completed surveys II. South Miami Gardens Resident Survey Results Introduction Residents of South Miami Gardens (SMG) were surveyed to determine their level of support or opposition to the City of South Miami Multifamily Redevelopment Plan. This plan includes the proposed demolition and redevelopment of the existing SMG facilities. Demolition of the SMG development would require the relocation of SMG residents and would provide for the opportunity for these residents to move back to one of the newly developed sites in the redevelopment area or within the City of South Miami. The survey was conducted between February and March 2002. SMG residents who attended one of the two group meetings were provided a detailed explanation of the multifamily redevelopment plan by Richard E. Miller, consultant to the City of South Miami and given an opportunity, to ask questions about the plan. Residents of SMG who did not attend one of these meetings either visited the Police Workstation in SMG or were visited in their homes. During the home visits each resident was provided a.copy of the redevelopment plan, a full explanation of the multifamily redevelopment plan and how this plan would require their relocation, relocation options that would most likely be available to them, and an explanation that demolition of the existing facilities was included in the plan. SMG residents' questions were allowed and answered before they were asked to complete the survey. Preliminary Survey Results SMG residents listened attentively to the explanations of the adopted Community Redevelopment Agency's multifamily redevelopment plan and its implications to SMG families. Since these explanations included a full discussion of how the proposed redevelopment's relocation implications would be addressed by the appropriate agencies, most of the residents felt comfortable supporting the plan. Residents were asked to personally fill out and sign the survey. As of March 18, 2002 the SMG development had 43 of its .58 units occupied by residents. Two of the 58 units are out of management for use by the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Center and the Police Workstation. - Of the 43 occupied units, (100 %) of the households'. were issued surveys. There were 41 or (95 %) heads of households that completed the survey. There were 5% or two households that did not return the survey. Of the 41 heads of households completing the survey, 32 or (78 %) support the multifamily redevelopment plan (including the relocation implications). Six households or (15 %) responded that maybe they support the plan. The remaining three households or, (7 %) did not support the redevelopment plan. Attempts are continuing in the effort to get survey results from the two remaining families. Summary As a result of the aforementioned efforts and activities, a large majority of SMG households supports the multifamily redevelopment plan even though the plan requires the relocation of SMG residents. III. City of South Miami Conversations With Miami -Dade County Since the establishment of the City of South Miami Community Redevelopment Agency, meetings were held as necessary with various County entities to open and maintain lines of communications. As tentative redevelopment activities evolved that had a county, interest, the county was informed by the City of South Miami of these'potential developments. During the evolution of the multifamily redevelopment plan, these conversations increased. In the early portion of 2001, the multifamily redevelopment plan began to crystallize and it became evident that SMG would play a key role in this plan. The City of South Miami officials met with county officials, including Miami -Dade Housing Agency (MDHA) officials, in April and May of 2001. Additionally, City of South Miami representatives and CRA consultants met with MDHA representatives several times during the summer and fall of 2001. It is anticipated that in the future, regular meetings will beheld between the appropriate county and city and CRA representatives regarding the multifamily rental housing plan and its interface with the SMG development and its residents.'

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS Last year, the SMCRA held a charette to invite community stakeholders, including residents of South Miami Gardens (SMG), to'discuss potential sites for construction or renovation of multifamily dwellings. These same stakeholders identified SMG as a prime site for redevelopment, and they encouraged the SMCRA to proceed with the redevelopment process. The SMCRA held a preliminary meeting with MDHA officials, hired a multifamily housing consultant, and surveyed residents of SMG. (A detailed listing of SMG- related activities to date is included as attachment C of the CRA Director's Report.) A survey was developed to determine whether the project would be approved or rejected by the 43 existing households. Results of this survey show that 32 of the households surveyed (or 74.4 %) fully approve the redevelopment efforts, including the relocation implications that may arise. A total of 6 households (14 %) responded that maybe they would support the plan, while only 3 (7 %) opposed the redevelopment. Two of the 43 households (4.6 %) did not complete the survey as required. At this time, the SMCRA and the City of South Miami are ready to move forward with the project by engaging in discussions with MDHA. RECOMMENDATION Your approval is recommended.
