probably with some kind of a crosswalk light, maybe even a pedestrian bridge. We'll get that into that more that crosses over to obviously to uh with the rest of the athletic fields and so forth. Uh which causes the min the least amount of disruption from uh the academy
into the fields and themselves. And then you see that we've created huge provenance. Those sidewalks, those pedestrian walks, paved walks that we have between those fields have 15 feet. So that shows you how wide and how
focused on pedestrian there is across this entire site. You will notice that we've taken the street out that was going along the APZ line that we had in a previous proposal that we had for the master plan and now we've created a pedestrian zone from Palm Street all the
way out to that street that wraps around that leads to the stadium and around uh to Mozo as well. So, it's become more pedestrian every single field. Once the kids are on the field, there's no street to cross and uh we've been able to achieve that. And then you'll see that there's a lot of paved areas that have
different shapes that go 20 30 feet around areas where there's basketball courts. You can see that is happening where the number four is over there where the baseball fields are or areas where people can gather when there's events and things happening within those fields, parents, um etc.
and I'll show you more renderings. So, this is a look. You can see now that this is more of a fully rendered view. Uh, our intention is to create this park-like setting and to, you know, eventually um extend the landscape
around the existing retention pond and around the parking. And then we have this loop that comes across uh around the whole thing for it to be kind of a sports anchored uh park and development that is uh a beautiful place to be and
spend the day. These are some renderings of uh the hub itself so you can begin to understand kind of the care that we've taken towards the architecture and the look and feel of the facilities here. We really really want this complex to be a
worldclass you know state-of-the-art facility and it has to be clear from the materials we use from the kind of architecture that we're doing from the artwork that is placed around it from circulation. So everything from a technical point of
view all the way down to some of the softer things that uh really make us feel like we're placemaking rather than just having buildings in space. Uh this view again shows you this concept of having this uh green loop that comes ac across the entire uh path. You begin to
see that there is pedestrian uh ways leading all around the entire um uh uh uh site. If there is a game, there is very intelligent, smart, direct ways directly into the stadium with all the crosswalks and areas that we can close
off towards the high school and kind of limit it all to the north part of the site so we don't have cars going elsewhere. But we do have if you look at the fields and you go directly down, you'll see that there's a small parking lot. We're suggesting for that to be an area where there can be public
transportation drop off as well and that they come off and drop off and then loop out again. So, we're already thinking about how those connections with public transport can be happening. And there's another one by the stadium as well and you will see it in the master plan. We have it all labeled. Uh this is another
view where you see those pedestrian ways that are lighter just to make them very easy to see how we have all of this pedestrian walkthrough uh that are very well thought out uh throughout the space. This is the main entrance and this kind of grand entrance from the
parking areas into uh the stadium where we have this sail we call it a sale since in front of the park which obviously from a technical point of view provides shade when the sun is low but also we have this kind of graphic which is the the South Florida sunset and then
uh the canopies have the colors of the sky. So we we're kind of addressing the fact that we are in this beautiful agricultural area that is between a na a historic uh a a national park which is the Everglades all the way to Biscane
Bay and that this stadium is organic is of the place. It's iconic. We want when the drones come over uh or the cameras pan over this somebody sees this place and they're going to say we're in Homestead. It can't be anywhere else in the world. And we're putting that in every single detail. You can even see
that as you look at this the hotel when it wraps around the dividers follow this uh same kind of uh graphic pattern and they're almost like you know scales or something that changes the color some of the things that we see in feathers and scales of the floor and fauna uh of the
local area. And you can see now how the whole boardwalk and all of this pedestrian ways lead to this grand plaza and to the north and to where we have these uh docks and wrap around and it becomes part of the park in the way with a monument in the middle which is uh the
stadium itself which will provide facilities that will be outward facing like bathrooms and concessions and things like that off game time. So those have the possibility of operating and providing infrastructure to the park and to the things that are happening here
when there isn't an event. This is a view we really like because we we we we think that it kind of expresses the lifestyle that we are proposing and is it is a different lifestyle. We are changing the lifestyle of this area
where we have a waterfront that's being uh uh developed and addressed which is an asset that we're kind of highlighting where you have a park and and and civic areas uh that can be used for different events and where we're providing state-of-the-art field
state-of-the-art fields using the latest and greatest technology both both in natural grass and turf with proper uh drainage etc. ETA for the community as well to play. This is another view of the stadiums
looking at how the hotel kind of addresses the water and and comes down with its own parking and entrance so it doesn't create any kind of uh congestion uh separate from the stadium but it's fully integrated into the stadiums. In fact, the pitch club, the club lounge,
the terraces and all of those facilities are connected on the same level as as a hotel. So we can imagine that they can start playing nice and one can become a feature of the other um during events and things like that. This is a look and feel of what this
could look like during a game or doing a rodeo. We're providing 10,000 seats expandable to 15,000 seats state-of-the-art facility with beer gardens and all kinds of experience. We're going to have a seat. We've studied what the community looks like
and what the demographic is. And we're going to be providing different prices and different experiences that will be available for everybody. And there will be six, seven different uh type of experiences depending on where you sit. Um that I think that will express uh the
smells and the flavors and the food and the culture that exists uh locally as well. And obviously the excitement excitement of having worldclass uh sports and entertainment here. Uh here again you can see it. One
of the things that we've paid great attention to given the climate is that we have these sails on both sides providing protection from the sun and the low sun and then canopies over the grand stands as well. And as you can see the hotel itself becomes a feature of the uh of the stadium as well. It
creates that enclosure of the coliseum which makes it much more in intimate. It keeps the sound in which is great. You want to hear the screams and everything that's going on inside but it's kind of mitigating some of that uh uh light or sound that could uh come out of this as
well. These are the fields. So the one to the right is the first field that we will break ground on the second which is the grass field. So that baseball field will be grass and the other one will be synthetic. The reason because of that is because grass is a much better place to
play, but you can only play with it maybe once or twice a week because it starts deteriorating if you have a lot of play on it. So, the synthetic field will be able to one that will have uh will be able to have much more use. Again, this shows you how we're creating these plazas where you have a baseball
game and people can gather and there can be pop-up things and food trucks and things like that. We are putting concessions in different places that could be thought as permanent concessions or they could be infrastructure for events. Uh and you know that's something that we can talk further and we'll have batting cages and
mounds and different things that are associated uh to baseball for example in this case. Here you see the racket sports. You have um uh the tennis courts up there on the north with its own plaza and then it leads again and then you
have concessions always and then you have the pedel and then the pickle on the west and you can see that we've added on that side the kids in the uh the kids playground as well that you will see a rendering of it that we're providing which is accessible from uh the high school side. We do have do two
tennis courts that we're providing grand stands for. And what that will be provided is an opportunity that you can have, you know, smaller community or smaller events, but you can have spectators around it. And ob obviously if you have any kind of um uh educational
uh event around tennis, you could have people uh watching while they're um seeing a performance as well. This is from a different angle. These are the basketball courts that are there. Those are basketball courts that were in the initial master plan that was
approved that we are in keeping with. Again, you see how we're creating these paved areas with plazas and things and places where people can people can gather and have uh food carts and things like this. We're always thinking about of this destination and this civic kind
of uh uh uh events that can happen around uh sport and other kind of events. This is the playground. Again, as we move forward into further design, all these things will become further detailed and we have like a first name and last name and technical
specifications and things like that that we will uh be sure to review with the city as well. But here we're already seeing uh the intent. And then one of the things that we've spent a lot of time is that we believe that that park should have a heart and
the heart can be a water feature which is obviously beneficial when you're developing land because it becomes a water retention area as well. But that that water feature we can invest and create a water feature that mus
uh lights that change color to that music and that will be the heart of an event. If you have a, you know, any kind of music, food, uh, like I said, art walks, farmers markets, whatever, we're providing this entire paved area where things can be set up around it, which
the water moving up and down and the sound and the music is kind of what we're seeing um, in some entertainment parks and things like that. And um, that can create opportunities for people to go for the day and have something to look at. You know, it becomes more of a
destination. Here you can see with the stadium in the background and these terraces that we've created and the walk that wraps all the way around. That's something that we like. You know, you can start on one end of the site and you're going through fields, then you're going to more wooded area, then you're going to an area that has the water
features and then you're moving over around to a marina. And as you're coming out the marina, you're coming out to like a tennis like racket sport area. And it becomes this diverse journey that you're going through which gives you things to do all day long. and really um
uh feel like uh uh uh you're in in a very dynamic space. And this is more kind of what the experiential thing could be uh in that kind of heart of that park. And at night, you obviously would come
to life with music and uh lights and movement and things like that. And here you see it at night. And we do have an animation. Hopefully the sound is on because it adds to it. But um it should autoplay after this one which
kind of gives you this bird's eye view of the whole like we always say you never look at architecture statically like you would in a picture. You're moving around it. So the animations I feel give that feeling. Thank you. And I would like to also as Dio and Nick did express our commitment
label associates we have uh uh 2,200 architects engineers 43 offices across the country and in Europe we're doing over 30 sports anchored developments. We know what we're doing and for us this is
uh a legacy project. We think this is something that's going to be very exciting and a benchmark for future developments in the country as well. Thank you. >> Thank you. Quite an accomplishment tonight and that is you've left me
speechless which is hard to do. So uh council council Fletcher. >> Yes. Thank you Mr. Mayor and uh first and foremost I want to thank Daario and his team for thinking about Homestead. Uh this is a a tremendous asset that's
going to be delivered here to the residents of the city of Homestead. Um I got your last name, Sakowitz. I hope I >> But uh again, thank you all for having the vision to come here to Homestead.
And this truly is going to be uh it's exceeded my expectations already just with the the visual drawings and I can't wait to see it in person. the the water features, the walkability, you know, everything is clicking all the
the boxes and I think it's going to set the standard for anybody else who comes to Homestead in the future. Uh I can tell you my the residents of of of the South Date area are all going to benefit from this. Uh the residents of Homestead are truly looking forward to seeing this
come to fruition and thank you again for coming to Homestead. Thank you all. >> Thank you. Thank you, mayor. No, definitely. Um, we are so incredibly excited not just for this, but the partnership the partnership piece um that you bring to
it. I love the fact that you brought up the batting cages because as we go on, you start hearing different things that might have fallen through the cracks. So, I do appreciate you taking those little things into account. Batting cages was one that was brought um
brought to us and a skating park if you end up with a piece that you don't know what what could happen. Um I think we do have a little bit of a rising uh skateboard inline skating. >> We we actually have a pump track on the
>> So is that for skating >> which can be used by bike and skate. >> Okay. >> And roller blade. >> Fantastic. And then my only other beef was that I didn't see Holland in your animations. I didn't see my my Dutch teams there. So next time I'd like to
see some orange. >> Thank you. >> Oh, thank you. Yeah. What an outstanding, you know, presentation and we're we're all really excited about that. uh I get more down into the logistics of things and with AYSO here, I just want to make sure there's
communication between them as they plan their league and their seasons. Um I know they have an upcoming season uh March through May that may have some some technical and some logistical uh you know complications with construction so that there is really not
too much as the mayor said earlier interruption of of the youth that's already using the facility to engage in what they do. um you know through the spring and into the summer. Um and it sounds like the rodeo is going to have a
home beginning 2028, maybe 2029, right? >> As soon as possible. >> That's correct. >> As soon as possible. You said the the stadium would be open when? >> March 2028 is our target. >> Okay. >> That's what we would like to do. >> All right. So it' be March >> the AR for the arena 2028.
>> Right. >> Yeah. >> Right. So, it'll be the 2029 rodeo season that you guys could expect to experience uh new logistics there as well. I'm very excited about that. Uh and I think we can fill the stadium. And
you said it can go to 15,000, right? >> Yes. >> There you go. So, I look forward to the great ticket sales and 2029 for the rodeo association. That's all I have here. Just want to make sure the logistics between AYSO and any other
youth activities that are out there um you know they're not interrupted too much. I know there's going to be some pain but just want to make sure that they're they know what they can do for the upcoming seasons. Thank you mayor. >> Thank you Councilman Roth. I would like to touch on that. Um
technically speaking I'm an architect so uh technically speaking you you always have two approaches. One of them is to start development. For example, let's say you have six fields to start development the fields slowly fencing out areas where people can continue to
play during a season which slows down some of construction or to try to go from A to Z as quickly as possible so that the disruption is as short as possible. So we are analyzing both uh uh methodologies. We're working closely
with GC's and uh potential uh uh construction partners to look at what the best logic is both from our experience as architects and engineers and from what the construction logic would be with them as they move around. But obviously when you have things in a closed uh area when you're fencing
things off and you have cranes and you have things like that, there's a whole logistical aspect that does slow down construction as well. >> Yeah. And I think I think we all understand what's going to happen, you know, for the most part and there's not going to be as much disruption as we think. And I think AYO mainly focuses
right now in the stadium area where the stadium will be built. So I think if you build out some of those soccer fields that were further to the south, um you can segue them back into that area as you begin to construct the stadium in a
couple years. So, I think I think we can look at it logistically and and and make it comfortable for everybody involved. Obviously, there's going to be some some issues that may arise, but I think I think we all have the right mindset to make it as comfortable as we can um and as painless as I think Nick said uh
through this process and I think that's the most exciting thing is to get everything done where everybody gets to, you know, use that facility to the full extent that they can. >> That's Councilman. You must have read our logistic plan because that's exactly right. >> You know, we're we're fa you know,
building a field phasing into another area construction. The most important thing in any of these large scale projects is safety and and we're going to and what's great about this site is that there's lots of elbow room. Um I've been involved with projects where there's like no elbow room and that and
the tighter space, the more unsafe it becomes. So, we're we're definitely definitely have that in mind, but safety first. Thank you, Councilwoman. >> Thank you, mayor. Congratulations to Miami FC, to the city of Homestead. As
this um continues to move forward, I think we're all very, very excited to see the future of the programming, the development, the um activities. I did have some questions and piggybacking on the communication, which is going to be huge uh not just during uh development,
but going into the future. My understanding is is that the city was going to retain communication and coordination between the recreational uh programs and scheduling and utilizing the the field. So for staff, can I get some clarification on that because I did
become aware of a letter that the city circulated to program uh managers that the point of contact beginning January 5th was going to be VSGS. So has that changed? Because I'm starting to hear different now. And what is the the
actual plan? Thank you. >> So, Councilwoman, I think there was a miscommunication there. Uh, communication in terms of reaching out to the facility users will continue to be routed to the director of parks and recreation for city of Homestead. Uh,
the challenge which I'm very very happy that has been addressed tonight is community engagement during construction phase. That's where the challenge is. Beyond that, communication will always be routed through the parks and recreation department director.
>> Thank you for that clarification. And um another question that I have for the future of this area is um a lot of envisioning of a police substation on the east side of town. I am hoping that there's been some real intentional conversations about it and if possible,
we also need an indoor gymnasium. So, if there's any extra room, any extra funds, we would love to have uh some additional indoor uh recreational space for residents of the city of Homestead on the east side. We have but one gym, the
YMCA, old YMCA facility, aside from the PAL gym, and it is extremely high demand. And so, this would be one of those um benefits, community benefits that we would love to see um grow into the partnership. I did also have a question with regards to that water
feature area. Do you envision a restaurant uh capability there? If so, if you're able to expand on that. >> So, with regards to the police station, we welcome that. Um, from an operational standpoint, fantastic to have a
substation or police station on the site and we're going to work very closely with the chief of police and and his staff to make sure it's well uh well policed during live events. Um that's a really important um component of the
safety issue. Um restaurant absolutely that that water feature and that water space is going to not only be a gathering place but I think you may have seen in the video and some of the still shots. Um this reminds me a lot if anyone's ever been to St. Petersburg and
seen the pier. Very similar. Lots of restaurants, eeries, like not just um food trucks that spaces where they can pull up and provide a diversity of cuisine, but um there was a building there right at the waterfront with a
little overhang that will be a place where you can get some some good food. >> Thank you very much. And then last >> council woman um just for clarification uh the administration is already in communication and discussion with the team with regards to the east side
police station. The discussion is still evolving. Uh we hope to finalize it at some point. Uh good thing is that the development team seems to be excited about the prospect of having a police presence there. Thanks.
>> Very good. That's excellent news uh for the entire city, but specifically the east side. And um I think last but not least, it is one of the very necess necessary amenities for parents uh uh of children. We need as many restaurant uh
restrooms as possible around the the fields and the parks and the pump stations or pump station, whatever you call it. So when you go through your site plans, please keep that in mind. Thank you. >> And those are labeled on the site as well. And and also like as I mentioned the
facilities that we're designing around the stadium they're outward facing and they become part of that facilities and and we use you know we we we we use kind of rules of thumbs that we know depending on capacity what you need to have in terms of concessions and
bathrooms so that you don't have quies. So we'll make sure that that infrastructure is there. I just want to point out kind of to your point, a couple of the the items that were discussed in the presentation tonight that may be glossed over, maybe
not, but that are new to the plan is the potential aquatic center, the indoor aquatic center within the training facility as well as training facilities which may be of as this of all may be available to to the public as well. So,
you know, in terms of the indoor um gymnasium type facilities, um that's, you know, great potential within that academic village. So, breathtaking. This is really
I don't get goosebumps a whole lot, but when you started doing that animation, that was that was something else. >> You ain't seen nothing yet. >> It'll hold you to it. Thank you. >> Yes. >> At some point, I'd like to be able to
sit down with with your design team. I want to talk about safety in particular, the crosswalk area. That that little scurve there is very dangerous. So, I think, you know, getting some details of what has happened there in the past might help you with that design feature. Just make sure we're involved with that a little bit. Thank you. Yeah.
>> Last thing. >> Yes, Vice Mayor. >> Thank you. um with the retention pool, you know, thinking of things that you mentioned so many times, these gathering areas, which I see the community loving. You know, we we have very involved parents coming out to support uh the the
local teams. Um obviously to to see the bigger games, but if there is some type of way to incorporate a splash pad maybe into the water feature. Um, I'm thinking as as councilwoman Avila mentioned the eeries that is a new trend also with the
aderondac chairs with parents being able to kind of do their own thing and the children playing potentially the splash pad could go in to a nicer water feature that served as a retention pond. >> So I'll just go because
>> picture tells more than what I can >> speak. So that's a splash pad there that you have. See how it's wet in that area? And then you have the seating right in front of the water feature. And then that's the the the building where you have the food and catering. And then you
have tables around. And again, when you start seeing the furniture, I think these are you could see that again this is design intent because we're going to get spend 10,000 hours designing this. Um you can see the tables around. This
is the covered area right in front of that restaurant area that creates a V overlooking the water which is a really nice feature. It's almost like being on a ship. It goes to the tip. We're using a lot of a kind of water uh aesthetic.
And then you see the the benches and the way the lighting works and things like that. Here you have uh the the umbrellas. And so we'll have different kinds of seating in different sections for laying back and you know sitting down and eating and things like
that. But there is already a spat splash in it. >> Love it. Thank you. >> Thanks, Mayor. I'm so glad you asked for that. It was on my list, but I didn't want to ask for too much. So, I'm so glad. This looks like a great New Year's Eve spot. So, >> yeah. I think we're going to need to buy more Christmas trees and all kinds of
stuff. >> Thank you all. Thank you for coming down. Thank you. Uh, by the way, I'm really impressed by this council's knowledge of design and development. I don't get that with every council on these projects. So, I appreciate that. There's never a bad idea, just ideas we have to talk through. So,
>> so u Mr. Mayor on council, Nick, uh, something that this council would love to see, your ability to kind of frontload your design schedule and, uh, bring down your completion period much sooner than you anticipate. >> That that's the schedule I spoke of.
It's much much more accelerated than what was in the original. >> Safely accelerate. >> Yeah. >> Siri, with regards to that, we always we always have a schedule that we shoot for. We always try to beat it because time is money and cost. So, the sooner
we can build, the sooner we can open, the sooner we can start paying for it. >> Again, thank you for coming down. >> Thank you. Thank you very much. >> Appreciate it. Okay. Yay. Amen.
>> 15 minutes for the rest of the night. >> There you go. That's right. We have Yeah. 13 minutes for the rest of the night. Okay. We have the consent agenda. Do I have a motion to approve consent agenda? I have a second. All in favor? >> Any opposed?

of Southwest 152nd Avenue is Luke describing exhibit A and providing for an effective date. >> All right, I think now we're ready. You go 71 BL Avenue. I'm joined today by uh Phil Sarati, the Southeast Division President of Lar Holmes. Thank you all for your time. As you disclosed um earlier this evening, you've been very
generous to let us walk through this uh uh request that we have this evening and and give you some updates on what we've done. Um you have two items before you today. U what we're seeking to modify was included as part of the resolutions of approval for the one project which is
on the screen now, but it had as you may recall the two phases. It had the the uh small uh what we call up there approved KGT KG2 north site and then on the south side the much larger KG2 south site which is of course where the clubhouse is is located but because at the time we
brought those projects both together the um the request that we're making today and the 50th percentile co was contained as part of both approvals and so we kind of have to bring both approvals back to modify the site plan but obviously the clubhouse is only located in one place I think we're we're pretty clear on that
so Um the um you know a majority of you were obviously on on the council some years ago when this project was approved. Um over 200 acre parcel the last residential development in the in the DRRI. Um and um you know we we made a
lot of commitments at that time and we've we've met those commitments and we we need some um assistance with one in particular here today but this is the uh some of the background informations. Um, again, technically speaking, revising the site plan approval, but not because we're changing the site plan, but just
simply because the CO condition was a condition of the site plan approval. So, technically speaking, I have to file a site plan application. And even more technically, I had to file two, the north and the south. But it all boils down to what we're seeking to do with um
just uh one change in one covenant um which we're going to prop which I will show you in a minute. This is what was um approved back in uh 2023 and which we are in the process of finishing up. And so as we we go through it, I think this is probably a good slide for me to talk
about where we're at at this point, which many of you some of you have toured the site, all of you have met with me and so you've gotten this update. Um the clubhouse is um should be open by April. we are um you know at the point I was listening to to Phil earlier today in our in some of our
presentations um talking about starting to get the designers to go in and the the folks that are bringing in the furniture and the like and I'm going to show you some pictures of the improvements that have been made. So you know we're we're um very close to the clubhouse structure itself being done. The golf course um should be completed
by spring by April. Um it can't be played on and you can't drive golf carts on it right away because this the grass has to take. you can imagine the grass would get ripped up right away if you don't allow it to to to root correctly. So, the anticipated um timeline for the
golf course to be open and available for play is this summer sometime. And then the final portion which of course we we talked about um a lot back the last time is within the clubhouse which will again should be um finished and and open to the public by by we're hoping April will
be then the final um component of the clubhouse will be the the the restaurant. Um after April when the clubhouse is open the build out specific buildout for the restaurant will occur. They're in advanced conversations um to to move that along and our anticipation is that the restaurant will be open by
the end of the year. So, I think 2026 is going to be a pretty exciting year um to get that clubhouse online um very soon, the golf course by by mid year and and hopefully the restaurant by the end of the year. Um so, um excited for at least
three uh grand openings in the next uh 12 months or so. So again, the the renovations and and all of the things that have been done by LAR um throughout the process, the improvements of the clubhouse, this is all from what was approved already, the restaurant, the golf shop, the golf cart storage um for
the public use, the pool, gym, ballroom, and the management offices. Um all of that is contained within the clubhouse and all of that obviously is is in place. And I'm going to show you a picture of a couple of those things. You're going to see um you know what what the pool looks like today. doesn't have water in it quite yet, but it will
very soon. You're going to see the gym. You're going to see a ballroom, which is beautiful. You're going to see a lot of those amenities. But all of that is of of course part of the clubhouse and and the work that they're doing. Um we mentioned this in our briefings and I think it bears repeating um because it speaks to the nature of why we need a little more time or why some of the
house construction got a little ahead of some of the clubhouse construction. It was not for lack of effort, money, um or desire to complete it as quickly as possible. Um, the reality is anybody who's renovated a home can probably attest to that sometimes building from scratch, from the ground up, is much
simpler than taking a 40-year-old building and starting to knock down walls and realizing there's a lot we have to do here that we couldn't have anticipated or we thought we could do something one way and we have to do it another way. So, that is really the the principal reason um that um this this
got delayed by what might end up being two or three months because because again um we're just at that point where we're exceeding the 50th percent now. Um, and really within a couple of months it should be open. So, we got it pretty good. We got it to within maybe two or three or four months, which two years
ago is, listen, you know, anytime you can plan construction and get to within 3 or 4 months, um, I I think that um, it speaks to the efforts that were made. Um, here's a recorded declaration of restrictions from from back um, a couple years ago and and everything else stays
the same. All we are doing is the uh the the subsection E that says uh that um in no event shop clubhouse amenities open later than the time of which developer has received the minimum 50% of the cos for the approved dwelling units on the project. And then I'm going to show you
that what we want to do in this entire presentation and both applications and all of the effort that uh you gave me with your time to meet with us and and and Phil and other teams in LAR is to change 50% strike that and make it 65%.
That's the entirety of the actual request here this evening. Although we're happy to explain everything that went into it. that will allow us to safely go through the next couple of months, get the clubhouse open and continue working on this. Um, as promised, some of the pictures, um, here's the, uh, pool area. These are, I
think, like a week and a half old, right? Something like that. So, it probably looks even even better today. Um, but, um, as we've offered, some of you have already been out to the site, others we've continued to offer. Please come visit anytime you want to. Let let me know. Let let someone, you know, let
Phil know, and we're happy to have you out there. But this is the the pool area that's being um constructed and and what it looks like today. Uh the golf cart storage area, you know, with all of the, you know, areas to be able to plug the carts and do everything you need to do. Uh the gym is starting to get its
equipment, so it's it's already um in place. This is some of the stuff that's already being brought in, so you know, it's it's starting to to fill out. And then the last couple of shots, which are of um that just, you know, grand room and and and really the the height and the heft of it. Um, and look, I think it
was important in discussions we had back in 2022 and 2023, this application took over a year to approve initially. Um, we had a lot of conversations with folks in Keyscape and a lot of them wanted to preserve. You know, there was a lot of nostalgia around the fact that that clubhouse, you know, has host uh hosted
a lot of important events for families over the years. As I said before, it might have been simpler, perhaps even a little cheaper to knock it down and start because you just wouldn't have had the unknowns. You would have just been able to build up. But I think that this this building like meant a lot to that
community, meant a lot to Keysgate. Um the Keysgate community. Um their ability to finish that project to get their HOA, the turnover, everything, all those discussions we had were also surrounding this idea that this clubhouse would become the hub once again and that this
area would again be able to contribute to to the community. And I think um you know, we're on the on the doorstep of that. So um and here's the the final picture that I have with um you know another angle of the work that's going on um that we are going to finish in the coming weeks here. So I believe that's
um you know I want to thank staff you know obviously both development services staff and and the manager's office and staff for their recommendations of approval for this effort and also for their time and and consideration and getting this on the agenda as quickly as they did. And um and really that's it.
So I want to thank you. I think you had some questions. Hopefully based on the different discussions I had, I've addressed some of the issues and questions um that you have, but I'm happy to answer any other ones. And um we look forward to your favorable vote of support this evening and uh having you out there very soon with some grand
openings. >> Thank you, council. I moved by the uh district rep. >> I'll make a motion and just a couple of quick comments. Um thank you again to uh Phil and Hugo for inviting us out. Uh it's the progress that that we thought
we would have had. Uh I think you've nailed it and and met it more aggressively than originally thought. I know there were some delays initially with the the golf course portion and and that kind of slowed some things down as far as grass growing, but I can tell you
just the you see the the irrigation system working every day, a couple times a day. Uh you see what the they've done inside the clubhouse. It's it's truly a remarkable change from what it was. Uh happened to have dinner with some folks on Friday night who got married there,
you know, 20 years ago and showed them the pictures and they were really excited to see some of those same, you know, architectural features that were there when they got married. So, it's it's it's it's going to be a great benefit to the community. Uh I look forward to supporting this. Um the
residents are excited to play golf. So, uh if we could make grass grow a little faster, put some lights on it. I think it depends on weather. It depends on weather. So, I guess we for that purpose, we all have to root for a rainy uh spring. We need we need rain, I think, is what I've been told to make everything kind of grow and take root.
>> But barring any other comments, I will make the motion for approval. >> Thank you, Councilwoman. >> Thank you, mayor. I'll second the motion. I do have some additional questions. Um, the success of this clubhouse, as we've discussed, relies heavily on the success of the golfing
experience, the pro shop, the restaurant. So, um, I wanted to just take this opportunity for the public, any new residents that are listening in or that would like to learn more. Can you speak to and perhaps Phil might be better to expand on it to the success
strategy? I know that there are some some discussions on control after turnover or open. >> Yeah, I know. So, so I I that that's a great question. So, a couple of points on that. So, just bear in mind, I didn't get into a lot of the details, but this this clubhouse will be owned by the CD. That was one of the conditions and
prerequisites back when this was approved in in 2023. And and the idea behind that was that you would have that continuity and that you wouldn't have a potential redo of what happened, you know, several, you know, some years ago when the club was bought by a private entity who didn't, you know, eventually
wasn't making money on it and closed it down. So, by having a governmental agency, and I know Councilman Obi, you're very familiar with CDs from, you know, your community and past life. Um, I think part of the success lies in the fact that this is owned by that that community, right? This is not owned by a
developer. It will not be owned by a private party. It will be owned by the community. Um, LAR, which of course is still in control because they're developing the site, is is uh interviewing management companies specific to running. No decisions have been made, but it's integral to them
because ultimately this is the community they're selling. And so, they want this to succeed. They're interviewing the folks that will make sense to run the club to run the golf course operations to make that experience as good as possible. And then the last point that I mentioned, they are going through and they've gone through the process to
select um the restaurant, which I think is an integral part and probably the last leg of that stool in terms of um bringing to the community what they want to have. And so um they're in advanced discussions with the restaurant and um and hope that they can get started. So, I think the fact that it's owned by the
CD, that it's, you know, not owned by a private entity, um, and that they're doing the right thing to hire and bring on the right management folks, um, I I think we'll will be part of why this community succeeds, but ultimately it's going to succeed because it's going to be the community that owns it, right?
Once LAR is gone and finished selling their last house, uh, they may be selling in another part of town, but for this community, it'll be the residents here who belong to this city that ultimately will have a say for it. And so we're confident that they'll do what's right for their community. >> Thank you. And to the public component, what's the capacity for the clubhouse
and the parking? >> So we got asked that question earlier today. I think the the main room um we we estimated or the plans we saw have about 240. Uh I think that's uh Councilman Ksky. We were with her when she asked a similar question. Um it's
about 240 in that main room. The capacity of the building itself is far exceeds that. you know, that's cuz you could have people in the gym and in the main room and in the restaurant. But, um, I don't know the number of parking spaces right now. I wasn't geared up for, but I think anyone who's driven there has seen that it's a pretty ample parking field. I will say on that point,
new lighting for the parking, new new rescriping and paving the parking area is going to make the experience much better, too. >> Thank you very much. >> Thank you. >> Any further from council? I just want to say I think we've we continue to protect
the concerns of the residents that they were going to have a clubhouse and wouldn't be left hanging with 1300 new units and and no clubhouse and uh I think those protections remain. I'm confident that everything's going to come together. So is there anyone from
the public or online wishing to speak on this item? Tab six. All right. Done appearing. I'll close the public hearing and ask for a roll call vote on tab six. Councilman Ron. >> Yes. >> Councilwoman Ksky.
>> Yes. >> Councilwoman Agular. >> Yes. >> Councilman Fletcher. >> Yes. >> Councilman Cannibal. >> Yes. >> Vice Mayor Bailey. >> Yes. >> Mayor Losner. >> Yes. >> The motion carries. >> We have a motion on tab seven. >> Moved by Council Ross. Seconded by Council Fletcher.

>> it. See you soon. >> All right. If there no objections, uh the vice mayor needs to uh run be a high school mom in a few minutes. So we wanted to uh jump to her item tab 27 very quickly. Vice Mayor. >> So Mr. Mayor, just Madame Vice Mayor, uh
could we take top number 26 right after the vice mayor's item? which is for the >> for the STEM for Yeah. for the city days so that she can go home. >> Is that >> she's sitting there? >> You got to ask her a couple minutes.
>> No, right after you. >> Sure. >> Okay. Right after the vice mayor. >> Okay. >> No, I appreciate it. And you don't even have to move it. I just wanted to say something in case you hadn't heard of it before, but if we are okay with moving it, I did want to ask now that we need
um everyone to vote on it. uh this organization healthy mind heart and body they have put on some beautiful wonderful health related brunches. They always have amazing speakers, a lot of resources. So I would truly appreciate
your support in helping me cover the FGO Williams facility as well as helping to uh to helping them be able to afford their insurance for the events. >> Very good. I'm sure among the seven of us that we can come up with that.
>> Mayor, if I may, this being a it's an a standing uh project, you said for a couple years, is there any objection to um having this pass through the special events surplus budget that we have? >> Well, has it been here or you just generally >> has been here? It has been at FICO for
at least the last four years, I want to say. >> And Mr. Manager, if you can confirm how much we have in the surplus for special events. >> Mr. finance director. Can you give us the current status of that account? >> Better yet, just say we have enough so that >> Okay,
>> I'll move to to cover that through the special events. >> All right, it's been it's been moved and seconded. Um, any questions, comments from council? Okay, anything from the audience? Close the public hearing and a quick roll call on that item.
>> Councilwoman Abulan, >> yes. >> Councilwoman Ksky, >> yes. Councilman Roth, >> yes. >> Councilman Cannibal, >> yes. >> Vice Mayor Bailey, >> yes. >> Mayor Losner, >> yes. >> The motion carries. >> Thank you very much and thank you for excusing. >> We're going to jump back to 26 very
quickly. >> Hey, Mr. Manager. >> That's 26 is an item being sponsored by Manabula. Uh this is for the
proposed restorized two city days for an entity called Eagle Sewer Aviation for their expo and STEM showcase. This is going to be on December 11 and December 12, 2026. Uh the city currently has 12 city days
for which at no time have we exceeded the usage of two. So instead of losing 10 days in a year is the proposal and recommendation of the city staff for council to consider allowing this group to utilize two of those remaining 10
city days. >> Thank you. >> Let's hear and then talk. >> Welcome and and I appreciate your time and coming down and sitting through all the uh presentations. So, I hope that it was inspiring and I um encourage uh my colleagues to support this item tonight,
but I didn't want to lose the opportunity for you to present and to talk about how fabulous it is and how it's going to impact the city of Homestead and why we should invest. Thank you. >> Very good. Uh good evening, mayor and uh vice mayor and council men and women. Um
I'm very honored for the opportunity to come and to present. Um I've had the pleasure of meeting with each of you individually and collectively we stand together um as we are presenting this
opportunity to advance expose ignite curiosity and allow it to be able to take flight. Our foundation, as I've shared with you uh before, was birthed out of the death of my husband uh 10
years ago in June of 8 of 2016. And he was an Air Force pilot for 13 years. That's where we met. Uh he transitioned um in ' 91 to fly for United Airlines. uh for 23 years. Prior
to his passing, he was a commercial airline pilot, flew the 7375767s and ended as a captain on the trip 7. And his inspiration in flying, coming from a small town in Louisiana came from
an encounter he had with the Tuskegee Airmen when he was a cadet at the Air Force Academy. It was really that experience that told him that if the if the airmen can do what they did under the odds of protecting our country, certainly coming from a small town uh
from Louisiana and the access to the resources that he had at the Air Force Academy, certainly he could make impact and expand and expose other youth really in underserved communities to soar and STEM as well. And so one of the things I
promised him prior to his transition was that I would continue that legacy um of exposing youth uh connected with the mayor of city of Myiar uh nine years ago and talked to him about um our interest
to create an aviation expo to complement the scholarship programs that we were currently doing in Broward College and also in Louisiana. and there birthed the opportunity um for us to do aviation expose with the city of Myiar in
partnership with the uh Broward uh Broward um county school board. Um and so eight years ago we ventured um and started that expo and over the the last
eight years each year we've added the number of students that have been impacted started at 1,800 moved to 2,000 students on the first day and now we completed our eighth event. We had 2700 students that came on the first day
which is Friday. Our second day we do an aviation expo and a robotics competition. So we have 27 teams from Broward schools that participate in the robotics competition. For us it was more about exposing the opportunities of the
vastness in the career field of aviation. Recognizing that not everybody is going to be an airline pilot, not everybody is going to be a military pilot, but everyone has a chance given the opportunity and exposure to the
vastness uh in the industry. FAA is a partner. American Airlines is our title sponsor. They bring 25 or 30 uh pilots that come from a diverse background because again it's about the demographic being able to see what they can be and
um recognize that from their zip code they too can be exposed and ignite energy and excitement for an opportunity in the field of aviation. We have uh the pilots that participate. We also have flight ops. We have customer service,
flight attendants, mechanics, machinists that also participate. FAA participates. We have all of the aa the aviation uh educational outlets that also participate. Emry Riddle. Um we have Florida Memorial University uh aviation
and flight safety. We have uh Broward College aviation program. We have some of the private industry um partners that also participate. Wayman Aviation and other organizations that participate. The Museum of Discovery also has an
aviation program um and they come out and participate. Civil Air Patrol because like here in Homestead, we would be at a non-traditional venue. Um we knew that we couldn't fly a trip 7 in to the regional park that we have in Myar.
So what did we do? We contacted the Broward Sheriff's Office who has helicopters. They fly two helicopters in and our Coast Guard from Miami flies their helicopters in. Many of the kids have never ever seen a helicopter fly,
let alone talk to the pilot, see, you know, access to the cockpit and again to be inspired. And so over the last eight years, we have impacted over 15,000 people. Um it's a two-day event.
The first day is a sanctioned school event. Um and the second day is the community event. That footprint is going to be mirrored and and and followed right here in the city of Homestead.
Again, when you talk about uh reputation, you talk about credibility, you talk about proveness in the industry, we possess all of that. and we will um continue to leverage our footprint and our industry knowledge to
bring it to the city of Homestead. Having had preliminary conversations with um GMO um Santa Cruz at the Homestead Miami Speedway, he was enamored about the opportunity
recognizing that we could expand not just an aviation expo, but we have aviation and STEM. So, with the uh medical hospital trauma center that's right there on the track, you now have
STEM and medicine. You have uh STEM in aviation. We have George T. Baker who also participated in our last event um in Homestead. They felt that it was value added for them also to expose their postsecary
career and technical education training um in Myiar because they do have people in uh their training programs that are in the Broward County area as well. And so again, what we know is that there is an intersection that we have an
opportunity to expose here. Kids from various zip codes, kids from the district all around to be able to grow um the powerful platform that we have already created. um that will allow
young students as well as families to come and um expand on educational exposure and opportunity. We've got a workforce development opportunity as well as economic growth. Um Homestead is
also um now positioned as a spaceport. And so as we are expanding uh the footprint here in Homestead, we definitely will be expanding the STEM exposure um as it relates to space,
well aerospace, uh aviation and also STEM in the various aspects. will also obviously do uh STEM in in automotives since we'll be there at the Homestead Miami Speedway because I know that he is very excited and looking forward to a um
a camp that he is also doing there that that can be launched as a part of our initiative. And so we're very excited. We recognize that it takes partnership. Um and that's why I invested the last seven months meeting with each of you
individually. I've already met with all of the key stakeholders, met with the superintendent already of Miami Day public schools, the assistant superintendent, um, as well as the vice chair of the county for for Miami Dade County, as
well as the, uh, Brow, I mean the Miami date, uh, superintendent, um, the commissioner for District 9, um, Councilman um, Santos. And so each of them see this as a value proposition for
the city. Um and we also see it as an opportunity for us not to start something new but to expand on the footprint of an initiative that has been established, proven, and is is moving in the community. And so we're excited and
I thank you for the opportunity um for us to be considered for uh using two community days at the Homestead Miami Speedway. Um I know that the Air Force base wasn't an option for us because they closed it for non-military
essential events and so the next best thing cooking was of course the Homestead Miami Speedway. And so we are excited that you see it as a value. um to bring it to the city of Homestead in the community. >> Thank you very much for uh expanding on
all those details. If you could speak a little bit and briefly on the um scholarship opportunities. >> So, one of the things that we do um you know, when you go into the community, it has to be a win-win. A win-win for you to be able to see the investment as well
from the organization that is coming in. We currently have scholarship programs, but one of the things that we have said as a part of this partnership is that we're going to invest Good afternoon everyone. I hereby call February 19, 2026 code compliance

a high be. But last night, I pushed it because it was not working from inside. So I I needed my daughter to go inside, push button and me putting it but the beast was there and I have a video of it. It's closed. It's completely closed and everything and it's empty. You guys
can go and check and everything. So I did compile that time but I couldn't put it in all the way in when I was doing by myself and and the other thing is that I work in the island. When I come here it's already late. >> You can show your uh code enforcer. Um,
but due to this is a repeated uh case, you're gonna get a fine today. Okay? I'm just letting you know up straight. I'm you're going to get fined today. Um, because it's it's continuing. All right. So, you you may prove that to
your uh uh code enforcer. Um, but it it's going to be a fine today. Okay. >> When they told me the first time I called in, when I closed down, it was halfway closed. It's it's this is a repeated this is this isn't the first time. This is actually the third time if
I'm not mistaken. >> No, this is the first time I come here and it was the second letter that they put in the in the fence and and I tried to do it myself and it and the bees came inside the the RV because they go by the
electricity coil and on the bottom. So that's why I pulled a little bit out just not to let them in. But then they told me to do it again. So last night with my daughter, I closed it. It's all closed in. So they're not going to go in again or anything. >> Can you clear that up, please?
>> So the he had a first case which was the CC252000. That was on December 17. He was provided 5 days. He did came into compliance, but then he reopened it again. So this is his first time here, but he's a
recurring violation. So with the adjudication, if I see him again with the RV open, then we will go ahead and give him a fine. But if you >> move it away from from there anyways, >> the next time you come in
and and you're in violation, you have you could be fined a daily fine of $5,000 for each day that this occurs again. All right. You can go ahead and
prove to your hearing I mean to your code enforcer that you've done what you're supposed to do, but she needs to go back out and check it again. >> Anytime. >> All right. >> It's open anyway. The gate is open. They can come in anytime to my house and on the back doors and everything. It's open.
It's not has a key or anything to go in. >> I passed by today and it was closed. But >> well, you would have to grant me access for me to do that. Okay. >> So, I'm going to put adjudication against this, but if it comes back again,
I think I've made it clear, >> you will be fined, you could be fined up to $5,000 per day. All right. So, in case number CC2
60001 05 Nov, a $80 administration fee adjudication against this property. Case dismissed. Thank you. >> For clarification, yes, if it's dismissed, >> not I'm not dismissing. I'm sorry. Case

compliant? >> Okay. Um we submit um the permit for the parking strips parking strip to be repainted. We have a process number
255080663 and um really we didn't continue because they asked me uh they said that we need a contractor because this is a commercial property and um
actually we don't have the money to pay $3500 to the architect and the person that had to do the drawings and you know to take out the permit. We're trying to go little by little and once that we have
the $3500 then we can go with the person that is going to take the permit. We try to make it but my question is and it's one of the question that the architect asked me
um because okay the we just I guess by mistake we paint the the part that is handicapped because it wasn't clear. So people always, you know, parking there and we
paying one line and you know the blue lines it's all we pay. We didn't know that we need to get a permit for that. So you know we tried to make the the permit
we didn't know that it was big mistake because now we have to pay you know for all this stuff. So my question is, do we have to paint all
the the the strips or just take the permit for what we did already without permit? >> Mr. Rodriguez, we spoke in the past, right? >> Yes. I think we sp you're the tenant of the property or you're the owner. You're the tenant of the property. Yes.
>> Okay. So, we spoke in the past and we said you explained to me about the handicap that you guys um uh paint on. >> Can I handicap? >> Right. So, I explained to you that the whole parking lot had to be striped.
>> Okay. The violation is for the owner. >> So, we have to pay the whole parking. Anyway, he he's going to charge the same if it's for one for that for eight. We just want to know we can I mean we have
to go through there to you know this the city something city of Miami and then when they come back then we we can get the permit is what what I understand that we have to do. So, we just really need if it's possible to get a little
bit of time to finish the process. >> When I opened this case, it was back in August >> and you guys were given um until 8:19 of 2025 to comply. Then I grant you a little bit more time for that.
>> And I know you guys applied for a permit uh on August 20 of 2025, but nothing has been done since then. >> Yes. That's why because when we apply for the permit then they told me that we cannot do that like uh with the owner's
um work something like that. >> So the owners to want to have to apply not the tenant. >> Yeah. The owner applies already but they don't accept it because he's like um he's going to do it because they say that we need a contractor >> correct >> for that.
>> Correct. >> Yeah. So when we got that is when we got the We have $3,500 that we have to pay to the contractor. >> So at this moment, >> yes, >> I cannot
uh you can't represent this is for the owner. He has to be here. >> All I can do is just hear the case and then I have to make a ruling for the case. And so by him not being here, I cannot take any
um I have to do what it is by ordinance because he's not here to speak for himself. Nor do you have >> a power of attorney. >> Oh. So >> because he knows I mean >> he told me that he's if I can come here
because he says that it's our responsibility. The only way that I would >> say, okay, so we have to >> the only way that I would be able to do any of the anything is if he's giving you power of attorney to be able to represent him. As of right now, he's
he's not here. So, I'm just going by the ordinance. All right? So, in that in that case, my advice to you is to get with your get the owner, go by building and code, and follow directions that they give you or advice that they're giving to you. Okay? So, in this case,
I'm going to give 30 days um to be able to rectify. It's going to be a $80 administration fee for today. >> Okay. So, we have take more days to finish this. >> 30 30 days. >> 30 days. >> Um but you have to get with the

able to submit the p drainage plans to durm but now durm wants to um get a class six environmental. So today I was able to obtain uh an environmental uh
engineer and I sent him the information because I need to get that permit in other words to close out all the permits which I'm trying my best to do. So, they don't have an occupational license because they had
a rental to keep the the the vehicles, the trucks, which they're called uh boom boom trucks. They install AC on roofs. So, it's not the biggest um trucks.
Now I have to wait till Durm approves my class and I had asked for an extension but I was not in the deadline. It was only like 10 days I you know that's when the owner gave me the notice. So I'm
working on it. Uh I asked for an extension for 90 days because I don't know how long DM is going to take. And now I have this new engineer to do the uh the class six. So,

process is and determine that um in the near future. Okay. >> I can't control DM, you know. >> Yeah. But as of right now, there is is there a permit pool application filed? >> Not at this moment. >> Do you have anything, Miss Eugina?

You go ahead and make your statement, sir. >> She she we was informed that she said she posted on one day before she sent the ticket as well. So we called up the thing. We
never received no till we received this ticket. >> Then we got it. Then she showed up to our house with each other. Um and post I told her we have six cameras on building
not once that she posted um the other day in office we talked to that she came and post it. We was aware of it and like I told her when we file a complaint not The only thing you said you came and posted before we got a
letter with not once on my camera system that you ever came to a front door, back door, but she ficated and said what she did came and posted and she never posted nothing came any time till we received a

trash and and call the city and come pick up. It's not it's not a legal jumping site. That's all you understand. >> All right. So, I'mma correct this so that you understand why you're getting a fine.
the whole city throughout the city. We have multiple dumping sites that you can drive to to take your oversized boxes and trash to these facilities. All
right. The only reason why the city comes by to pick up that is because they come by on their regular schedule date. For example, my recycle comes by on a certain day. My bulk trash
comes by on a certain day. I will get fined if my trash can is out before the night that they come by and pick it up. I'll get fined after they come by and pick it up if I don't take my trash can in. You have the night before and the
night after. You can't just throw trash out there and think it's going to magically disappear. It has a date before and a date after. I live in the city of Homestead. I know my dates where my trash is to be picked up, which I
don't, but my wife does. And my wife is very adamant about me taking out the trash. >> All right. Very adamant. Guess what? I don't know the dates because I travel, but I know when my trash is going to be
picked up. >> Point is this is my name is trash pile and we picked one box on the trash pile. >> Okay, so I'm I'mma give you another factor. Y'all got a car, right? If you take the car and you go through a toll,
who's going to get charged with it? >> There you go. I don't care if it is your neighbor. I don't care if it's your child. I don't care if it's whoever your evidence is. Your trash was there. >> I got removed.
>> The evidence is your trash was there. I can't do anything about it. Right. Now we know better. All right. And so by that evidence is being there, I'm going to leave it at $500 to pay. All right.

illegal dumping. The loc the specific location of the violation was found on 426 Southeast 9th Avenue under Folio 10-7813-0 to8-0190. I took the photograph on November 21st, 2025. Special master, please accept the
photo evidence. >> Accepted. Special master. Uh this is one of the cases that might be under your of course discretionary authority. Normally when we inspect um
um a dump site and we normally find information of udumponte normally is a person that is nearby the specific location of that address. This specific uh information that we found on that dump site was from a person from across
the entire city. Wasn't like across the street uh two blocks down. It was for literally across the city. So to be taking that into consideration Can you go ahead and state your name and address, please? >> Median,
105 South East 12 Avenue, apartment 222, Homestead, Florida 3330. >> Can you go ahead and state the ad uh state the statement, please?
>> Yes, your honor. Uh, my name is Tommy Ruiz. I'm the son of Miss Ruiz. I'd like to speak on her behalf. >> You can speak. >> Great. Thank you, your honor. Uh, your honor, uh, my mother is 80 years old. She lives in assisted in an assisted
living facility. Um, she's 100% innocent of all of these charges. U, my mother, uh, gets her packages. Um, and the requirements for this facility is that whatever boxes that they get, um, because the old people have problems
breaking down the boxes, there's a corner in the building where those boxes are to be left. That's the last time my mother saw those that box, the box in question. So, I have some pictures here on my cell phone that she sent. If I may
show you um of the area where these typical boxes are shown, where the boxes are supposed to be deposited, but >> show uh show your code enforcer, please. Yes, special master. That's the reason I was initially stating that this dump
site was found on the southwestern side of the city with this address located on the southeastern side of the city. So, it was quite a distance pretty much. So, that to be take into consideration. Your honor, my my mother doesn't has no
reason to go there and dump that there. >> I I have a quick question in reference to um in front of you. I have a quick question in reference to the facility. Does the facility have a maintenance person or some sort of uh schedule on how to remove the the the boxes and
these oversized packages or how do they usually go about it? I'm not 100% sure. Um, it's a it's a it's an assisted living facility, so I'd imagine they have some maintenance people there. I can show you the box if you'd like. It's not that she didn't just take it and
throw it on her on her uh in her area. There's a recycle bin, and it's it's at the recycle bin in this corner here. Let me show you. >> No, that's fine. >> That's the designated place. break down. >> If they don't break down the boxes, then
they get in trouble because it it takes up all the space in the in the garbage can. >> Yeah. >> So, they're they're instructed to do that. That's on her same floor. That's the last time she saw the box and she has no control over, you know, what happens after after that point. So at
this time the city wishes to wave the citation amount but uphold the adjudication. >> I would take that in consideration. Um my advice to you is to um assist her as much as possible whenever she gets
shipments in. Um, my mother-in-law is of age two where she can't break down the boxes and uh, of course it's personal. It irritates me when she throws it in the garage. But she's smart to be able to pull her
name off of any of the evidence, so I can't I cannot uh, put a case against her. All right. So, um, my thing is to please be able to assist her as much as possible. At this time, I'm going to take the
advice of the city. Um, due to the fact of the distance that which this was at and the evidence that you brought before us. All right. Um, I'm going to waiver the fine and I'm going to put adjudication against this because if it
happens again, she will be fined. All right. >> Appreciate it, your honor. >> Thank you. Um, in the case, give me a few minutes. I got to find it on my I have the record here before me.

and u the address is 527 Third Avenue, Homestead, Florida. >> Repeat that again. >> Say that again. >> Repeat what you just said again. I said my mother's name Alan >> my father Wati passed away and uh she's
the one who live in the house. >> Okay. >> And she's my mother and my name is Evans. >> Okay. >> How can we help you to be able to rectify this? My mother was not at home and when she come when she came home and she found
that uh citation in her door about uh garbage that was dumped on the side of the where she live and she said she have no idea about this garbage and but at that side where they found the garbage
is always a whole bunch of trash there. I don't know what why they always put them there if it's a dumping place but they always whole bunch of garbage there. I don't know what is it for. And
uh she find it and find citation where she has no idea how she get the I mean where she get citation. >> So let me hear from the code enforcer real quick. So, the citation was because she dumped her me her ms
on the garbage. >> If you look right here at evidence right here, this is her mail that's right there on the garbage pile. >> Do you see it? >> Yeah. So, >> so that is why she's being fined and it's right near her house. So, she
dumped that garbage there. That is why the find is clearly wrote to her. All right. >> And also, but she's she said she's not responsible for I mean those garbage. She's uh going she saw the lesb there.
But the thing is she that it's always some uh big garbage there. She has she told I >> but her her she there's always some garbage there. So evidently clearly there that's her mail on that
garbage even though it's always there. There is not supposed to be there is supposed to be in her trash can where she gets it picked up on a certain date at a certain time not there on a pile regardless of if there is trash there
all the time. Her mail's there. That's clearly her >> that's clearly her garbage there. But the thing is she she has also her own garbage where they can dump. I mean they show her how they get there. >> But I'm I'm sorry the evidence is here in
the house with her and she doesn't know. I mean what she would like to do is uh that she went over there and look for them and to remove them and uh her she knows about it and not make sure that that don't happen again. and she's old
and if you can do something for her please and give her the chance not not to let that happen. >> So what I will do this is it's it's evidence is there you know and and we we don't dump trash. That's why there's a
trash can, right? Um I'm going to stick with the fine. I will not double the fine. That's all I can do. The fine is $500. Usually, if you come before me, it's $1,000. And I'm usually really strict on
trash. All right. Really strict. I'm super strict on trash. Why? Because we have so many facilities in our community. We have more facilities than the county has. The county doesn't pick up their garbage as much as we pick up
our garbage. So, there's no excuse. We have two pickups a week. We have bulk pickup twice a month. The county only picks up twice a year for bulk and you got to call them to pick it up. So there is no excuse. That
is why I'm so strict on garbage in the city. All right. So, I'm going to be able to stick with what the fine is without going to the uh the bottom paragraph because if you read down there
the third paragraph, it says that it's $1,000. We get there's your schedule right there. All right. So, I'm I'm sticking with the fine. I'm going stick with the fine, the civil
penalty fine of $500. Um Case number CC2600007. Is that right? I'm going to repeat it again. Case number CC26007. I'm going to keep the fine at $500. It's
going to be a $80 administration fee >> and that'll be it. Thank you. Excuse me, special master. I'm sorry. $80 ad >> $80 administration. >> Thank you. Next case. Next case under new business item 26.

Gonzalez Roger Oro located at 822 Southwest 6th Street. The case was heard on July 3rd, 2025 and the compliance deadline was August 3rd, 2025. Compliance was achieved for 30-433 for a
commercial vehicle on the property, 6-206 and 6-207 for a fence without a permit and 6-36 non-permitted work for the mini terrace and the structure on the rear. Non-compliance remains for code section 6-36 non-permitted work for
the added door and the enclosed door. The affidavit of non-compliance was sent by certified and regular mail on November 10th, 2025 and posted on the same date. Photographs were taken and submitted as evidence for review by the special master.
You have Can I read the case the previous uh hearings from the case? I can since this is an affidavit non-compliant, I want to go back to the dates. I need to see dates. >> So, it was heard on July 3rd, 2025.
And they were given until August 3rd, 2025. >> 30 days. >> Yes, they did complied with the commercial vehicle. The fans, they did um obtain a permit for it. And the mini terrace,
they did remove it and the structure on the rear. The only thing they're missing is the added door. >> Did they Did they pull a permit for the door? So they have a permit but it's still in apply status as of August 4th
2025 and the permit number is 25 080074. >> You say the permit is still in >> in an apply status. There still pretty much is in review by the development services. They have been in communication. Um, they have been submitting all the
documents. They're just waiting on on the permitting on development services. Is it It's taking a while. So, they've done everything on their part. So, um
I don't know what to do. >> Is it okay with you? Um can we provide maybe a little bit more time and then after that we can impose a daily fine? >> But I can't oppose a daily fine because it's not they're being they're giving the building and codes what they're
needing. They're just waiting on building and code council. Is this this is a certification hearing, right? >> An affidavit of non-compliance, >> right? So, we had a hearing uh way back when they were found to be guilty.
>> Um so, they were heard on July 3rd, 2025. >> It's been a while. >> I think I I think I heard this case. It was me, >> but they they've supplied everything they need to supply and
>> Yeah. Um well, there's a quick So >> they they exceeded the time but >> you could so they exceeded the time after uh the time for compliance was given by the the magistrate special master.
You could either issue an order amending your essentially amending your prior order making an adjustment um so they have more time or you can continue it. I mean, at some point they're they're currently, whether you continue it or
not, they're currently gonna they're going to be in violation of that prior order no matter what, right? Because they exceeded the time frame that you gave them. It doesn't matter if whether you're here today or tomorrow, they're they're going to violate it. So, the the only action I I see if you want to uh
give them an additional grace period would be to extend that uh essentially amending your prior order. But even if I'm giving them an extended, they they they've already submitted everything what I've asked them to submit. Build and code has not come out to do what
they needed to do. >> Well, okay. So, that falls on the terms of the initial order. Was it to finalize the permit or was it just to uh uh do those submitts and get, you know, >> it was to finalize? >> Because they're already on the last
stage is they're just waiting to be um issued. So, So they're even if they submitted everything, they're still in violation because they haven't finalized the permit. They got to call for the final inspection. They got to close it out. Both parties have the ability to walk away. Um the city can't do that at this point because you know this the
violation could still there's things could still go wrong. Um so >> and I know development service also has a new system too, EPL. So is is >> one of the things that we would typically do in other municipalities is if if you would be so inclined to give
them more time. You don't necessarily have to amend your order, but you could also table the case as to allow them more time. And if they complied before the next hearing, then at that juncture, it wouldn't be heard because it's complied. But the order would still stay intact. Again, it's at your discretion,
though. >> Yeah. But the vi the order is still being violated. Yes. Yeah. >> Can you go and uh assist them to make sure they can become compliant?
>> We'll speak to development services and I'll also speak to the owner to see if we can see what we can do to help the the owners. >> You could table it and then if if they You could table it for I don't know
>> 45 days, >> right? 45 days and then uh have requested code enforcement bring it back and then when if you're comfortable they've had enough time I mean I know it's the balls in the
city's court but enough time has gone by you could reconsider whether or not you know you want to impose. >> All right. Then my recommendation would be for the property owner or representative to actually be here and defend themselves in this case since they didn't show up.
>> That's a good point. >> I mean, all right. So, I'mma I'mma extend this. I'mma ask please be reaching out to them. Um, put emphasis on how important it is for them to show up if you don't mind. Uh, I'm going to
extend it for 45 days. and case number C250 40388. I'm going repeat that. CE250 403 888 45 days. I'm going waiver the $80

Casablanca Holding LLC for Casablanca Holding LLC. This case was opened back in my apologies. November 6 of 2025, the property was not into not in compliance. Due to that, it
was heard on January 29th of 2026. They were given 5 days to come into compliance with the removal of the commercial vehicles and the trailer that was located in the back of the property. I did go by that property today and take a new updated picture to verify whether
or not they had come into compliance, and they have. The deadline for that time frame was for the 5th of February. Um based on the ruling previously before um after the 5th if non-compliance was met, um it was going to be 50 days $50
per day and uh currently they have a fine of $1,000 on the property with an $80 administration fee. The recommendation is to leave the existing fine and um any additional fines that needed to be accumulated for the non-compliance due to the fact that the
property owner did not get in contact with me regarding this case since then. I had to go out to verify whether or not it was in compliance. >> Did did they pay the fine? >> No, the fine has also not been paid. Um previously before uh the property was given an x amount of time uh to come
into compliance, which I believe was 30 days from the notice of violation, and they still weren't into compliance. So that's the reason why they were hurt last month. >> Do you know when they came in compliance by removing the trailer? >> No. My inspection actually was due for yesterday. Unfortunately, I was sick, so I couldn't go out to the property to ver
verify whether or not they were in compliance. But the deadline that was given on the 29th was the 5th of of February. >> So council, because they have not paid the fine, that's still not being compliant. Am I right or wrong?
They've not paid the fine from the previous hearing. But they removed the trailer. So they're not still in within compliance. >> Okay. If if you're saying whether or not a running fine. >> Yes. >> No, >> I can't do that.
>> No. No. So they corrected the the substantive violation of the code, but they failed to pay that fine. There's a remedy for that. The city could has the the right to uh file a lean for that amount or any amount due against the
property, but we cannot impose a running fine. You can't impose a running fine on failure to pay the initial fine. >> I can't even apply a fine for them not paying the fine. >> No. >> No. So that's that's that's that's >> that's circumvent. >> Basically, I have to keep it like it is and they have to pay the fine.
>> Yeah. The city would be it's here on the certification. Basically, it's a affidavit of non-compliance. >> Yeah. Based off of the the previous hearing, uh like I said, the deadline was supposed to be for the 5th of February. So, if you guys want to lean the property for the existing fine of $1,000 with the $80 administration fee
and close out the case, that would be fine as well. >> And they're on the hook for the cost of recording and the cost of release whenever they paid it. So, >> may I ask uh we also put an adjudication on the property um as due to multiple vehicles being parked on and off of the property. Want to make sure this property doesn't continue with the same
violations. outstand outstanding that um you want to go ahead and put a lean on this property uh and move forward. Can we rule that? >> So the lean would be an administrative process. You don't need an order for that per se. What what I think the officer is referring to is he would just
like an adjudication um in reference to the violation itself. >> So I'm going to stay with the fine um put adjudication on this property and then we can move forward. All right. And case number CC2500619
OV. And repeat that again. Case number CC 2500619. Adjudication against the property. Move forward. Whatever administration cost is going to be $80.

p.m. well versed in some of the more technical aspects uh so that we can address any any inquiries or or uh comments that the board or the council may have. Excuse me. >> Very good. Appreciate that. Before I open it to the board, anything to add
any thoughts, Mr. Director? >> Yes, and thank you for that. So just to reiterate, this is an unsolicited proposal that was brought forward to the CRA. You are not making a decision tonight on yes, we're going to commit to a development partner proceed. This is though an introduction of a development
concept that has been brought forward to us that has obviously been well thought through and discussed. And so this is an opportunity for you all to ask, you know, as many questions and have the discussion you'd like on what they brought forward and then at that point um make a determination if you want to
open this up through the public process, which we are required to do before disposing of property. That would be a next step. And certainly once you finish the conversation, we can discuss the various paths the board may take. But just to reiterate, this is this is an introduction to their concept, not a full decision tonight, uh, but one that
we want you to have the opportunity to ask as much as you would like. >> Very good. Thank you. Okay. I'll entertain any initial comments or questions from the from the board on this presentation. Yes. Member Avala. >> Thank you, chair. Thank you for your
presentation. Thank you for making an offer to the city. I do appreciate the opportunity to review and to um ask some questions. Um I did notice in the packet that um the real estate experience is uh
relying heavily on um density high density projects. For example, it says our real estate practice focuses on delivering projects that blend housing, retail, hospitality, and pedestrian oriented amenities. And this includes high density programs, environments with
food, beverage, etc. Uh, and neighborhoods serving mixeduse sites. So, this property or these parcels do not have residential um allocated to it currently. Is this something that you would be okay with if there were any um covenants or deed
restrictions if there if we were to sell? And my next question is also would you be able to consider or be willing to consider a lease versus a sale? I may have missed that in the presentation. Thank you. >> Thank you for that question, Councilwoman Avula. Uh so yes, we we
would be amendable to um deed restrictions that ensure that there was not a uh residential component uh absent, you know, the will of the council or the city to the extent that there were some needs that that would uh would uh suggest otherwise. But yes, we
are open to to those covenants. Uh and additionally, we're we're in the very preliminary stages of considering this. However, um we would be open to either a lease or a purchase, although for a variety of reasons, uh quite candidly, we would we would probably prefer a
purchase, but at the end of the day, what we're more focused on is making sure that we can bring forward a successful project. So, uh, to the extent that it was the will of of the council in the city of Homestead that it be leased, then, um, you know, that's what we would we would deliver the project under those circumstances.
>> Thank you for those answers and I'll rest for now. Thank you. >> Thank you. >> Thank you, Councilwoman, >> Vice Mayor or Vice Chair, board member Fletcher, then we'll go to the vice chair. >> Yes. Thank you and thank you for the presentation, Mike. Um,
I appreciate
