SPECIAL PRESENTATION REGARDING THE CELIA CRUZ QUARTER
|
Presented
|
| |
REPORT:
Vice Chairman Rodriguez highlighted the historic significance of Celia Cruz becoming the first Afro-Cuban honored on a United States (U.S) quarter, with commemorative coins distributed at the presentation. He recognized Ms. Cruz as a musician, artist, and beloved local figure who brought joy to countless lives through her dedication to her missions and authentic passion.
Mr. Omer Pardillo, Ms. Cruz's former manager and President of the Celia Cruz Foundation, acknowledged that while Ms. Cruz did not reside in the City of Miami (City), the City held special meaning for her. He emphasized the appropriateness of the U.S. Mint's recognition and noted the historic inclusion of "Azucar", Ms. Cruz's signature expression, marking the first time Spanish appeared on U.S. currency.
Mr. Nelson Albareda described Ms. Cruz as a trailblazer for music and women across all backgrounds and generations. He stressed the importance of preserving and teaching the legacies of figures like Ms. Cruz, and expressed gratitude to Vice Chairman Rodriguez and the Board for this recognition.
Commissioner Regalado reflected on Cruz's profound impact on the Cuban American community, recalling her memorable performance for Cuban immigrants detained at the U.S. Naval Base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

REASONABLE OPPORTUNITY FOR THE PUBLIC TO BE HEARD AS PROVIDED IN RULE 6.06
|
| |
| |
REPORT:
Chairman Gilbert III opened the reasonable opportunity to be heard, and the following persons appeared before the Board:
1. Mr. Harry A. Warren, Jr., 15625 SW 288 Street, Miami, Florida, owner and operator of Foot and Fist Taekwondo, addressed the Board regarding a program he had operated at JL and Enid Demps Park (Goulds Park) beginning in 2018. He stated that he was removed from the park in the latter part of 2019 and indicated he had been banned from parks and his program for life without receiving legal justification for the action. Mr. Warren expressed that he had been directed by the Mayor's office to appear before the Board, as he had spoken on the matter the previous week. He sought to address what he characterized as an unjust ban that had been imposed without proper legal grounds.
Chairman Gilbert III clarified that Mr. Warren's matter was not related to any agenda item under consideration and offered to have staff meet with him to discuss his concerns separately, as general matters should be addressed through the appropriate office channels rather than during the limited "reasonable opportunity to be heard" portion designated for agenda-specific public comment.
2. Mr. Francisco Petrirena, 444 SW 2nd Avenue, Miami, Florida, appeared on behalf of the City of Miami (City), and addressed the Board regarding Agenda Item 4K. He requested either a continuance or denial of the item to allow the City and the County sufficient time to fully resolve an ongoing conflict concerning the Rapid Transit Zone (RTZ) and its proposed amendments and expansion.
Mr. Petrirena explained that the RTZ amendment would completely override the City's jurisdictional authority over all regulatory decisions. He noted that the City and County were actively engaged in a conflict resolution process under Chapter 164 of the Florida Statutes and that there was pending litigation between the parties.
Seeing no one else appear wishing to speak, Chairman Gilbert III closed the reasonable opportunity to be heard.

CA Bonzon-Keenan advised the items to be considered at today�s meeting would be those listed on the final agenda with the additions, deferrals, withdrawals, and scrivener�s errors noted in the Chair�s memorandum entitled �Changes Sheet� dated October 16, 2024, including the aforementioned requests. She noted the Board would approve all of these items by a single vote setting the agenda except: Agenda Item 2B1, Ordinances for First Readings, Public Hearings, 8A2 and 8P3 which required a separate vote, and the following Pull List Items: 8C1, 8C2, 8N2, 8N3, 11A2, 11A4, 11A7 and its Supplement, 11A11, 14A1, 14A2, 14A3, 14A4, 14A5, 14B1 and 15B1. CA Bonzon-Keenan stated a request was made to defer Agenda Item 11A4 to the November 6, 2024 Board meeting; however, two (2) commissioners had pulled the item.
Vice Chairman Rodriguez stated he pulled Agenda Item 11A2 to be listed as a co-prime sponsor and released his pull on the item.
Chairman Gilbert III requested Agenda Item 11A4 be deferred to the November 6, 2024 Board meeting pursuant to the prime sponsor�s request.
CA Bonzon-Keenan advised that Agenda Item 11A2 remained on the Pull List based on Commissioner Bastien�s request.
In response to Commissioner Cohen Higgins� inquiry, CA Bonzon-Keenan clarified that Commissioner Bastien was listed as pulling Agenda Item 11A2, and Agenda Item 11A4 was deferred to the November 6, 2024 Board meeting.
Commissioner Higgins moved that the Board approve today�s agenda with the aforementioned changes. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Cohen Higgins and upon being put to a vote, passed 11-0 (Commissioners Hardemon and Steinberg were absent).

MAYORAL APPOINTMENT � DIRECTOR OF THE INTERNAL COMPLIANCE DEPARTMENT(Mayor)
|
Accepted
Report
|
| |
REPORT:
Mayor Levine Cava introduced Ms. Ofelia Tamayo, Director of the Internal Compliance Department. She explained that this was a new department that was part of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-25 Budget process due to the transition of the constitutional offices. Mayor Levine Cava noted this had created an opportunity for the County to streamline its operations to provide better service to residents and taxpayers, and apprised the Board that Ms. Tamayo was the former Director of Audit and Management Services. She advised the new Internal Compliance Department was created to consolidate three core functions under a single leader: the Division of Process and Control Management (formerly Audit and Management Services), the Office of Enterprise Strategies, and the Division of Credit and Collections. Mayor Levine Cava stated that Ms. Tamayo had served since June 2023 as the director, and commented on her professional accounting experience in government and corporate environments, and her credentials.

REPORT:
Commissioner Bastien provided extensive remarks regarding the Dominican Republic's mass deportation campaign targeting Haitian migrants and Dominican-born individuals of Haitian descent. She reported that on October 2, 2024, Dominican President Luis Abinader announced plans to deport up to 10,000 Haitians per week. According to the Jesuit Service for Migrants, 4,129 Haitians had been deported through just one border area by October 14, 2024, with the Dominican government reporting 11,000 deportations during the first week following the announcement.
Commissioner Bastien noted that Amnesty International and over 50 prominent international organizations had warned that the program risked mass human rights violations. She stated that since President Abinader's announcement, individuals born to Haitian parents and Haitian immigrants had suffered grave human rights abuses, including mass killings, rapes, and threats. She emphasized this was the latest development in a long history of mistreatment that had been denounced by the United States (U.S.) government, the United Nations, and the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights.
Commissioner Bastien highlighted that the County had the largest population of Haitians and Haitian-Americans in the U.S., with Haitians representing the second-largest immigrant group in South Florida behind Cubans, according to U.S. Census Bureau data. She described the deportation campaign's scope, noting it included 2,842 men, 893 women, 152 boys, and 142 girls among the initial group, many were deported under dehumanizing conditions. She referenced a Haitian priest with 25 years of field work who stated he had never witnessed such grave violations.
Commissioner Bastien reported that deportations had occurred at night, with individuals apprehended on the streets or en route to clinics without opportunity to secure their homes or access their bank accounts. She disclosed her personal experience witnessing these abuses at the border and her prior testimony before the Organization of American States and the United Nations in Geneva. She noted the deportations were occurring while massacres were being conducted in Haiti, with 90 percent of heavy weapons used in Haiti originating from the United States and 10 percent from the Dominican Republic, referencing a recent massacre of over 100 people in Haiti's Artibonite Valley.
Based on these circumstances, Commissioner Bastien requested deferral of the proposed Sister Cities Agreement with La Romana, Dominican Republic, stating that while she understood the County's interest in doing business with the Dominican Republic, the current timing was inappropriate given the ongoing human rights violations.
Chairman Gilbert III acknowledged Commissioner Bastien's remarks and raised the question of whether sister city agreements, which promote the County and American values, might be more effective tools for influencing change through dialogue rather than disengagement.
Commissioner Cohen Higgins thanked Commissioner Bastien for her thorough presentation and agreed with her position. She stated the Board's role through the International Trade Consortium (ITC) was to promote trade and commerce, not diplomatic relations. Commissioner Cohen Higgins argued that when a commissioner articulated concerns on behalf of their community about atrocities occurring in a region, it was reasonable to defer action until conditions improved and she supported the motion to defer the item.
Commissioner McGhee suggested that Commissioner Bastien consider sponsoring separate legislation to denounce the behaviors and practices in the Dominican Republic, and offered to co-sponsor such an item.
Commissioner Higgins supported the deferral, stating the item did not appear necessary at the current time and should be reconsidered more thoughtfully. She suggested the ITC should reevaluate what sister city relationships should encompass, recommending that any future agreements in sensitive situations should include cultural exchanges requiring visitors to Little Haiti to observe the benefits of a thriving, well-treated community.
Vice Chairman Rodriguez, an original co-sponsor of the resolution, stated he was amenable to deferring the item. While noting the Board should not typically engage in foreign policy matters, he emphasized the importance of sensitivity among colleagues when addressing issues of such magnitude. He acknowledged the Dominican Republic as one of the County's top five trading partners but agreed with deferral until the situation was resolved. Vice Chairman Rodriguez offered to co-sponsor future legislation with Commissioner Bastien condemning the atrocities in the Dominican Republic and Haiti, while stopping short of recommending a complete cessation of trade.
Commissioner Regalado noted the Board frequently considered items related to diplomacy and should maintain consistency. She observed that economic benefit or restraint was the primary tool of diplomacy and recommended Commissioner Bastien meet with the item's sponsor in a sunshine meeting to discuss possible resolutions. She expressed support for the deferral.
There being no further discussion, the Board proceeded to defer the foregoing resolution to no date certain.

REPORT:
Commissioner Higgins stated the foregoing proposed resolution was discussed at the Chairman�s Policy Council and Intergovernmental Affairs Committee (CPCIAC). She said the Sixth Amendment for a Grant Agreement for a Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) would allow a $75 million grant to provide gap funding for construction of the Miami Beach Convention Center Hotel. Commissioner Higgins commented on the terms of the agreement, including termination of the CRA in 2036, rather than in 2044. She stated the County was unable to bid for certain conventions due to lack of an attached hotel, and the proposed Convention Center Hotel would add approximately $340 million in Convention Development (CDT) taxes over a 30-year pro-forma. Commissioner Higgins noted she was unhappy about presenting this item; however, the alternative would be to restart the procurement process which would result in a delay and there was no guarantee that it would cost more or less. She opined it was more advantageous for the County to have this hotel now and allowing the $75 million grant to be made in exchange for quick construction and for having a CRA that had a shorter cutoff date.
Commissioner Higgins commented that one of the parties in the Convention Center Hotel had not yet signed an easement for construction of the pedestrian bridge from the Aventura Station servicing Brightline. She indicated that she would proffer a motion requiring the party to perform the easement work so the County could construct the pedestrian bridge. Commissioner Higgins requested the Grant Agreement not be signed by the Mayor until the County had received an executed easement from the developer.
Pursuant to Commissioner Higgins� request, ACA Alfonso read the following amendment into record.
"In addition to the amendments proposed via the printed supplement, the foregoing proposed resolution was amended to amend Section 4 of the enactment clause of item l l(A)(7) to add as an additional condition precedent to the approval of the Sixth Amendment, the receipt by the County of an executed and legally sufficient easement for the construction, operation, and/or maintenance on private property of portions of an already fabricated pedestrian bridge, including but not limited to the landing tower of said pedestrian bridge, which is to service the West Aventura Station servicing Brightline and intended to service the Northeast Corridor and which is to traverse Biscayne Boulevard from the West Aventura Station to just east of Biscayne Boulevard at or near the northeast comer of NE 196th Street (the "bridge easement"); and providing that the County Mayor's or County Mayor's designee's authority to execute the Sixth Amendment as provided for in section 5 is contingent upon the County receiving a bridge easement executed by the grantor and reviewed and approved for form and legal sufficiency by the County Attorney�s Office."
Commissioner Cohen Higgins questioned why Commissioner Higgins, as the sponsoring commissioner, was not advocating for the item. She stated the foregoing resolution was based on a referendum by City of Miami Beach (City) residents in 2018 in which the voters voted for the project, including that no City funding be used for the hotel. Commissioner Cohen Higgins requested an explanation from the project representative as to why the Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency (RDA) funding was not considered City funding. She noted it was her understanding that the RDA was entirely funded by the County and the City, and if that was correct, there were still taxpayer�s dollars.
Commissioner Cohen Higgins asked Mr. Al Dotson, Bilzin Sumberg, 1450 Brickell Avenue, to explain the referendum�s specific language, and the foregoing resolution seeking $75 million of taxpayer-funded dollars held in a separate trust, but still substantially comprised of tax dollars; and how that was consistent with the will of the voters.
Mr. Dotson stated the Agreement addressed prohibitions by the City, and clarified that it did not include other municipalities, and other jurisdictions, including the RDA.
In response to Commissioner Cohen Higgins� inquiry regarding the occupancy rate of the Miami Beach Convention Center, Ms. Rickelle Williams, Assistant City Manager, City of Miami Beach, Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency Registered Agent, with oversight of the Miami Beach Convention Center, stated the Convention Center had rebounded significantly post the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). She stated that last year approximately 72 events were held in the facility, and upwards of 90 this year. Ms. Williams noted event organizers that wished to hold significant events in this region were challenged by hotel room blocks; however, this challenge would be addressed with the proposed Convention Center Hotel having 800 rooms, and would allow the City to pursue higher caliber events that would be a further economic driver to the City and the County.
Commissioner Cohen Higgins asked whether there was a calculation regarding the number of anticipated events with the 800-room hotel, and Ms. Williams responded that the City wanted to have top-tier events that attracted visitors outside of the region, but not necessarily a multiplicity of events that were only for local visitors. She noted the City would be satisfied with the 90-plus events being reduced if the quality and caliber of the event were increased.
In response to Commissioner Cohen Higgins� inquiry regarding the nine-month construction timeframe, Commissioner Higgins said it was her understanding, based on conversations with the developer, that they had all of the necessary permits and had conducted the sourcing of the construction companies.
Mr. Dotson confirmed that the developer had all necessary permits in hand.
Commissioner Cohen Higgins questioned the need for the item waiving Resolution No. R-130-06. She pointed out that today�s (10/16) vote would be the final vote on the item but it allowed for the agreement to be altered or amended. Commissioner Cohen Higgins stated the Board typically received negotiated agreements but in this instance, a fully-negotiated agreement was unavailable and she requested an explanation as to why that was necessary for this contract.
Commissioner Higgins described the CRA process and stated that upon receipt of a draft agreement negotiated by the City it was unfavorable to the County. She noted the item, in consultation with the County attorneys, was waived so that the County would be the lead in the negotiation. Commissioner Higgins said the Grant Agreement would be forwarded to the City of Miami Beach Commission and to the RDA for approval, and would come back to the Board if it was altered by the City in any substantive manner.
Commissioner Bermudez spoke in support of the foregoing resolution. He commended Commissioner Higgins for sponsoring the resolution and noted it was of countywide interest. Commissioner Bermudez inquired and Commissioner Higgins confirmed, that the County was involved with the improvements of the Convention Center in 2018. He read into the record an email from Mr. Rolando Aedo, Chief Operating Officer, Greater Miami Convention and Visitors Bureau (GMCVB), regarding upwards of 130 meetings representing more than one million room nights that were considered lost projects due to the lack of a headquartered hotel. Commissioner Bermudez emphasized the importance of the Convention Center Hotel not being delayed as this would result in additional rooms being lost and more opportunities would be lost in attracting visitors to the County.
Chairman Gilbert III pointed out that an extensive discussion regarding this item occurred at the CPCIAC, and he concurred with Commissioner Bermudez that this was an important issue that needed to be done for the County. He noted the Board had to be mindful of and continuously invest in the business of tourism. Chairman Gilbert III added that the County could not be competitive if a hotel was not attached to the Convention Center. He noted that he made a motion at the October 10, 2024 CPCIAC meeting for a 50/50 split, understanding that the City contributed 56 percent of their tax increment financing (TIF) and the County contributed 44 percent. Chairman Gilbert III stated the item was changed to 50/50 and was not a large sum of money. He noted if this needed to happen, he was amenable to reducing the contribution back to 56/44 if necessary, and indicated his expectation that the item would be adopted upon submission to the City. Chairman Gilbert III thanked City of Miami Beach Commissioner Alex Fernandez for his leadership and dedication on an initiative that would help City and County residents.
In response to Commissioner McGhee�s inquiry regarding the amount of revenue to be derived from construction of the Convention Center Hotel, Mr. Aedo stated the GMCVB was tracking more than of 130 meetings that clients wanted to be held in the Convention Center but could not do so, due to lack of a headquartered hotel. He noted this would generate approximately one million room nights and in addition to the economic impact, the Convention Development Tax (CDT) generated would be reinvested to enhance residents� quality of life. Mr. Aedo remarked there were several calculations in hundreds of millions of dollars of incremental economic impact and he referred to Assistant City Manager Rickelle Williams� comments. He noted that a headquartered hotel would allow conventions that currently facilitated between 1,000 to 2,000 individuals to accommodate approximately 4,000 to 5,000 individuals, which would allow the economic impact to spread further throughout Miami-Dade County. Mr. Aedo stated that the County was the only major destination that did not have a headquartered hotel connected to the renovated Convention Center and was competitively disadvantaged.
Commissioner McGhee inquired whether Mr. Aedo believed the Convention Center Hotel would add to the County being a world-class county as it related to conventions and to the tourism models that had been presented; and how many permanent and or temporary combined jobs did he envision the hotel project would create.
Mr. Aedo concurred with Commissioner McGhee and noted that all major convention center cities and convention centers had a connected hotel. As it related to job creation, Mr. Aedo said the developer had closely reviewed those numbers; however, the hospitality sector in the community, excluding Miami-Dade Aviation Department and PortMiami, was sustaining approximately 130,000 jobs, and with the incremental business the conventions would attract, that number would be significantly higher annually.
In response to Commissioner McGhee�s inquiry whether she was comfortable with the foregoing resolution, Commissioner Higgins acknowledged that she was comfortable with the item. She noted this was the best option for construction of the hotel in the quickest timeframe to fully activate the Convention Center which the County had invested millions of dollars. Commissioner Higgins said the other alternative was a long delay with no predictive outcome of a different procurement, possibly by more than a decade. She explained that she disliked the County having to invest an additional $75 million of taxpayer dollars, and the County�s investment in the RDA must now continue for an additional three years; however, based on the economic impact to the County and to the tourism revenue, it was beneficial to invest the $75 million in this manner.
In response to Senator Garcia�s inquiry regarding the rationale as to why the Convention Center Hotel was not built, Assistant City Manager Williams stated the City intended for the project to proceed expeditiously and had been working with the developer to ensure it would come to fruition. She noted various challenges had occurred including cost escalations due to COVID-19, the labor market and supply chain. Assistant City Manager Williams explained the City entered into an Early Access Agreement with the developer to allow them to prepare the site, and they had already invested over $20 million on the site in advance of breaking ground on the vertical construction. She said the developer was committed, the City had been committed and the project just needed to reach its goal.
Senator Garcia commented that frequently in government a certain amount of money was budgeted for projects and delays occurred which resulted in costs being passed on to taxpayers. He requested the developer�s assurance that the project would be completed on time.
Mr. David Martin, 313310 Merry Street, partner and lead developer for the Headquarter Convention Center Hotel project, discussed issues related to the project�s schedule, including COVID-19. He advised that subsequent to COVID-19, the developers proceeded with design engineering and had a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) with contractor Balfour Beatty for the entire construction amount, which was 90 percent bought out, and invested $20 million during and after COVID-19. Mr. Martin reviewed the hotel�s vertical project requirements and acknowledged its importance to the County. He mentioned the hotel would be paying property taxes to the RDA upon its completion in an amount equivalent to the grant, and above and beyond the CDT taxes and hundreds of millions of dollars over the life of its existence.
Regarding Senator Garcia�s inquiry regarding the estimated completion timeframe of the Convention Center Hotel project and prioritization of other projects, Mr. Martin stated the goal was to begin foundations for the project within the first quarter. He advised that a 28-month construction schedule with liquidated damages was in place with Balfour Beatty, the general contractor. Mr. Martin said all jobs were priority and Turnberry, his partner in the project, was committed and experienced with headquarters hotels. He noted the project consisted of a team of multiple individuals that were focused on making this a reality, and the equity and necessary proceeds were available to build the project, and he was seeking the County�s assistance with the gap funding.
Assistant City Manager Williams advised that once the developer took possession of the site, the lease agreement with the City would be triggered and there were several milestones and deliverables that the developer would have to meet. She noted there were provisions to ensure that the timeline was on track. Ms. Williams assured Senator Garcia that she, along with a significant team, would make certain the project remained on track.
Commissioner Bastien stated her questions regarding timeline and termination were answered and she was in support of the proposed resolution.
Commissioner Gonzalez commended Commissioner Higgins for sponsoring the foregoing resolution and for negotiating the grant agreement. He reiterated his colleagues� sentiments and emphasized the importance of clarifying the discussion. Commissioner Gonzalez requested an explanation of the RDA.
Mr. Fernandez explained the City had changed the name of its Community Redevelopment CRA to Redevelopment Agency RDA. He stated that originally, the purpose of the RDA was to fund the Convention Center; however, in 2018/2019, the City informed the County that they needed to redo the Convention Center. Mr. Fernandez noted the County allowed the CRA to proceed and issue bonds to redo the Center, and the foregoing resolution also allowed the CRA to refinance the existing bonds for savings.
In response to Commissioner Gonzalez�s inquiry regarding the use of the RDA funds if they were not used for the Convention Center Hotel project, Mr. Fernandez indicated the funds would be used for bond debt repayment, the CRA would no longer be in existence, and the City and the County would keep the revenues. He noted if the hotel was not built then debts would be repaid
Commissioner Gonzalez inquired about the timeline if the Request for Proposals (RFP) process was restarted, and Assistant City Manager Williams responded that if the process was restarted, the City would be required to undertake a competitive solicitation process, which could take a significant timeframe to accomplish from start to finish. She noted it would also necessitate a voter referendum and ensuring that the City could obtain the level of voter participation and agreement with the project, would be another challenge the City did not wish to undertake at this time.
Chairman Gilbert III commented that time was money and if the City was comfortable with the process, he was also comfortable with it. He pointed out if the City had to redo the process, they would request additional funds from the County. Chairman Gilbert III opined it was incumbent upon the Board to act quickly and immediately.
Executive Assistant County Attorney McCarty advised the foregoing resolution would be amended pursuant to Commissioner Higgins� request and the item�s supplement.
There being no further discussion, the Board proceeded to vote on the foregoing resolution, as amended.

REPORT:
Commissioner Higgins commended the advance review of the 2025 State Legislative Package, particularly regarding transportation priorities. She noted that the Flagler Corridor had not been referenced in the legislative package as a priority and had not yet been incorporated into the Strategic Miami Area Rapid Transit Plan. Commissioner Higgins offered to develop language urging the Florida Department of Transportation to prioritize the Flagler Corridor and sought Vice Chairman Rodriguez's input regarding the addition.
Chairman Gilbert III expressed his intent to expedite the County's lobbying efforts while indicating his willingness to accommodate additional commissioner requests. He explained that the legislative package had been referred to substantive committees for review; however, most committee meetings had been canceled due to inclement weather. Consequently, he supported approving the package with the understanding that commissioners could return with supplemental items, as needed.
The proposed resolution was amended to include the Flagler Corridor as a priority in the 2025 State Legislative Package.
There being no further discussion, the Board proceeded to vote on the foregoing resolution, as amended.

REPORT:
ACA Herman stated in 2023, the Board approved Resolution Nos. R-572-23 and R-1052-23 to, among other things, provide for a partial road closure and allocation of funds for the construction of a fence and gate to secure the historic Lincoln Memorial Park Cemetery. The original resolutions allocated $458,000 to the County�s Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW) to be used for the construction of the roadway improvements following the road closure. ACA Herman reported that DTPW had completed its scope of work, with approximately $91,214 remaining unused, subject to outstanding minimal expenses for certain County departments related to DTPW's scope of work.
Pursuant to the motion read into the record by ACA Herman, Commissioner Hardemon moved to amend Resolution Nos. R-572-23 and R-1052-23 to provide that any funds remaining from the original allocation to DTPW, which amount shall not exceed $91,214.00, be allocated as a grant to the owner of the cemetery, Lincoln Memorial Trust, Inc. to be used for capital improvements at the Lincoln Memorial Park Cemetery needed to preserve, secure and beautify the site, including but not limited to marquis signage.
There being no further discussion, the Board proceeded to vote on the foregoing motion, as presented.

MOTION BY SENATOR GARCIA TO AUTHORIZE THE COUNTY ATTORNEY�S OFFICE TO SPEAK WITH THE FLORIDA HOUSING FINANCE CORPORATION TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE BOARD COULD FIND A CURE IN THE APPLICATION PROCESS AS PART OF ITS MINISTERIAL DUTIES.
|
Presented
|
| |
REPORT:
Senator Garcia requested a point of personal privilege to address a potential affordable housing project located in the southeast area of the City of Hialeah within Commissioner Cabrera's district. He referenced a letter signed by Ms. Cathy Burgos, Chief Community Services Officer, Office of the Mayor, that rescinded the application in its entirety to the Florida Housing Finance Corporation following the Apogee Apartment Project's successful bid. Senator Garcia inquired about the status of the process and expressed concerns about the rescission.
ACA Smith explained that the form in question was required by the Florida Housing Finance Corporation (FHFC) for the County to certify that it was waiving impact fees, demonstrating the County's contribution for purposes of the nine percent Low-Income Housing Tax Credit application being submitted to FHFC. ACA Smith stated that the developers had submitted a form to the administration that included fees for the City of Hialeah. It was not identified until after Ms. Burgos signed the form that it improperly included the City of Hialeah's impact fees. He explained that legally, Ms. Burgos would not have been able to certify fees related to the City of Hialeah, and after consultation with the CAO, a letter was generated and sent to FHFC indicating that the form�not the application�was being withdrawn.
Mr. Ballina added that a protest had been filed by the development organization that placed second, based on a technicality related to the signed forms.
Senator Garcia expressed concern that the County had committed an error by accepting the information, and rather than informing FHFC that certain numbers could not be verified, the County rescinded the entire application, which appeared to favor one party over another. He questioned the rationale for rescinding the full application rather than correcting the specific error.
Mayor Levine Cava acknowledged that an error had been made and, because the process was routine, the mistake was not initially caught. She deferred to the department regarding the appropriate corrective actions.
Commissioner Regalado suggested the Board could waive its process and direct the administration to develop legislation codifying a correction procedure. She argued that if a mistake was made, whether by the County or the applicant, there should be an opportunity and defined time period to correct it without eliminating an affordable housing project.
Commissioner Regalado asked Mr. Ballina whether he would be comfortable with a 15-day or 30-day window to amend and resubmit applications when errors were identified.
Mr. Ballina explained that PHCD staff had not recognized the folio number was within the City of Hialeah and had since implemented processes to prevent such errors going forward. He clarified that this was an application submitted to the State, not within Miami-Dade County's direct jurisdiction, and related to certifying a local match contribution as part of the ministerial process.
Commissioner Regalado acknowledged the ministerial nature of the process, but reiterated her question about establishing a cure period for identified errors.
Mr. Ballina responded that the appeal process resided within FHFC's jurisdiction and that PHCD would need to discuss any procedural amendments with the state agency.
Mayor Levine Cava stated she would welcome the opportunity to engage in discussions with FHFC to determine whether the County could amend its process for this specific application to allow for a cure period when errors were identified.
CA Bonzon-Keenan concurred with the Mayor's approach.
Senator Garcia moved to authorize the County Attorney's office to communicate with the FHFC to explore whether the County could establish a cure period within its application process in its ministerial capacity when errors were identified. The motion was seconded by Commissioner Regalado, and, upon being put to a vote, passed 10-0 (Commissioners Cabrera, Hardemon and Steinberg were absent).
Commissioner Regalado clarified that the motion would apply to the current application in question, and Senator Garcia confirmed this understanding.
