Economic Development & Social Services Committee 3/14/2012 3C Forwarded to BCC with a favorable recommendation P
REPORT: Assistant County Attorney Terrence Smith read the foregoing proposed resolution into the record. Hearing no objections, the Committee considered Agenda Items 3C, 3D, and 3E simultaneously. Commissioner Bell asked Deputy Mayor Jack Osterholt to evaluate the feasibility of the County requiring utility companies to proffer some type of plan to landscape and maintain easements conveyed to them, and to provide her with a report of his findings. Mr. Gregg Fortner, Director, Public Housing and Community Development Department, pointed out the properties in this proposed resolution were already landscaped as part of the HOPE VI project. Commissioner Sosa noted landscaped easements presented a challenge for utility companies to access the utility lines. She clarified that tree roots could intertwine with the utility lines. Deputy Mayor Osterholt pointed out that Floirda Power & Light had the right to trim trees or take any action necessary, regardless of location, to maintain its power lines. Hearing no other questions or comments, the Committee proceeded to vote.

MANAGER'S BACKGROUND
Background
Comcast of Miami, Inc. has requested easements as delineated on attachments in order to provide utility requirements to the new HOPE VI-Phase II development. PHCD has no objection to these proposed locations.

The HOPE VI redevelopment project was made possible by the U.S. Housing and Urban Development (HUD) 1999 grant, which has been leveraged with other funding sources to facilitate the financial viability of the project.

Phase II of the redevelopment effort was started immediately after the execution of a Master Development Agreement (MDA) with the HOPE VI-Phase II developer, McCormack Baron Salazar, Inc. (MBS) in December 2008, and is anticipated to be completed by the end of 2012.� A total of 354 family rental units are planned for this phase, of which 177 are public housing units, 107 are low and moderate income units and 70 are market-rate units.
