chair Happy New Year to everyone as well the first resolution that we have on the agenda this evening is a resolution of the opalocka C authorizing the executive director and the C attorney to conduct the purchase of that certain property located at 240 um Bayman drive to include preparing title work to complete the transactions for your consideration move by Bo member Kelly second second by board member Santiago um any uh Mr director if you would present the item first please yes ma'am um first of all I would like to um amend this item before we vote on it to amend the title just so that we include it um the the listing the listing title to purchase is um or address to purchase is 540 bomman I believe is that correct 240 240 no five is 5 240 bomman sorry that's the listed address to purchase but there are four partials associated with the site uh just for clarity purposes I would like to introduce those addresses into the record uh the other address partial two 1 and two is 24 bomman uh I'm sorry 240 bomman 861 celite Street up opaka Florida 241 opaka Boulevard and 291 opaka Boulevard to be included in the title thank you madam chair um and this is a purchase that was encouraged by this board I believe sometime in November you all have already uh given me a verbal um vote to go after this property uh we went in negotiations with the with the the property owner back in November we came to a successful conclusion um probably the end of December um and we look at closing on this property uh probably within the next two weeks um so this will be the official resolution to you know written down not a Voice vote uh to have me go out and purchase this property and it's connected to the second resolution on your agenda tonight I have a question and obviously I'm sorry the idea is that for a long time you know downtown opaka has been sitting looking the way it is and we need to do something in order for us to do something we need to take control of the site we're in a position to do so and it's my recommendation that we approve this item uh to purchase uh the slot any uh comments from the board members questions Madam share yes uh board member Irving and then I see you Vice chair Williams thank you I have a question were we able to get this for Less than the 3 million that they were asking for they were asking 3.8 million uh and so during our negotiations um we got it down to 3 million which is what we offered and which is what our appraisal came in at exactly but they were offering they they were asking 3.8 million are the four properties contiguous excuse me the I don't know where you finished my apology one second okay I just I I just never liked the price of this property I just never liked it but okay it's three opposed to 3.8 wish it could have been less but okay it was uh I believe it was uh 6 something a couple years ago so much higher it's U way down from there okay thank you are you finished board member Irvin yes thank you well Vice chair William please I'm curious are the four Parcels contiguous yes ma'am it's the whole block got it okay thank you m okay uh board member Kelly first and then thank you thank you madam chair yes is on could you turn mine up a little bit louder please um thank you for negotiating it down it was much higher a few years ago um and I'm of the opinion the same way I am of the um old uh Chinese restaurant other properties you control what's in an area when you own it um I'm quite sure there'll be further discussions on what we do with it but I think if you want to control downtown with City Hall coming and other things you got to own the property so I am very much in support of it I obviously would like it to be one million but I'm more concerned with someone getting it and putting something downtown that we may not want to see downtown close to a park or other things that may be in the working so I definitely wholeheartedly support it and um I'm quite sure uh Mr director let me just ask for the record I'm quite sure you'll be coming back to us after discussions once we close on possible whatever with it but I think the first step is to obviously um own it and as a part of the uh purchase the agreement or maybe it's to the attorney Madam chair I don't know once we purchase it will part of the agreement be I guess timelines of of of them leaving because I know the church is still in there is that part of how you're going to negotiate the whole ending yes okay because I know we don't really have technical plans to do something tomorrow with it so no and my understanding the church is not in there so I I could be wrong on that but my understanding was the only tenant that still there is the uh is the um dayare daycare okay um that's my understanding uh and that's who we have to negotiate with to get out a elce if we want uh okay Madam chair I'll yield to the B Mel because I guess he wants to say something that point before B Mella uh no I'm not leaving I'm not finished oh you're not finished no he just wanted to weigh in on that point I was going to ask I think I know where you're going because I want to know this too um will we inherit those tenants we are still we want to close first uh we're still talking about that um we have um a letter I've told them that we could give them like a six-month grace period because we're not going to do with anything within six months uh and then during those six months I'll come to the board to say because I've talked to several board members individually everybody has a different opinion but once we close I'll come back to you and have that conversation on whether or not we want to continue to have them there until we figure something out or whether we figure something out and just uh ask them to leave after the six month 6 months after closing okay well that that semian part of it I guess the question the first thing is to own it before you can get any discussions um and also I guess you said the church is not in there well I'm when we were talking with them the only tenant that they refer to was the daycare okay let me just just you know transparency the church is that they're still in there and that's not a problem for me that's why I was asking you got the tenant with the daycare the church is still there but we're not going to do anything right away so I SW ask attorneys is a part of your negotiation to settle down there will be timelines of all of that and you come back to the board with any future plans or how you are plan to approach but the first step is to own it yes sir okay and I I can appreciate that and I think some of us have been around know that it was over over 6 million um and it's down to three so I commend you for that but it still goes to the bigger narrative if you want to control downtown and control what's going to happen you got to own it and I know there's been other entities looking at it uh potentially to do stuff that we may or may not potentially want so the best thing to do is to own it so I I can support that and look forward to coming back to the board with future recommendations or uh to the board to make a final decision on those things thank you madam chair okay board member Santiago uh thank you Madame chair um to the director uh this is the first time that I'm uh listen about the deal okay with the the church or that place um you had two address that you're talking about 245 and 240 what which one is the one that we buy we're buying the whole thing the whole thing but it's different address there're separate addresses separate folios but they're all together but they're all together they're all together okay and um that we have we don't have no more chance or space to uh re re to do another you know negotiation with them about the price I think we've done the best we can do uh I think $800,000 off of asking price is a pretty good deal um I I know that there are other people that are interested as as was brought up before um and I think we got it in the nick of time uh we went in contract in the nick of time I think this is a good deal we got an appraisal the appraisal came out I I every single property that I bring to you and you'll notice in the future um it is we're going to offer what the appraisal price comes in at um and so even even at the uh Chinese restaurant front we offered what the appraisal came in at at the um 391 building the Bennett building uh which also we're going to close in two weeks we offered what the appraisal came in at and before I sent an offer I got the appraisal first and we offered what the appraisal came in that yeah okay I don't have no problem with that okay if it's we um are reducing it to $3 million I think that's enough but we always try to see the best that we can you know but um also be sure everything is black and white in that contract when the Turners When anybody stay there for the six month that we talking about yes sir in this Mee and that's very important um when you say worse it's not it's not valid but when you have black and white yes okay for the Turners um I think let's go it's okay thank you uh board member Taylor I'm good thank you my question was answered okay yeah okay I'm sorry let me just say it anyways so what I was thinking um I'm a visual kind of a person addresses doesn't mean anything to me so I would like to see at least a photo of what we're voting on um for for my good because I'm not good with addresses but I know what we're talking about now at first I had no idea but I know it's the church and all of that so thank you yeah I apologize for that um are we thinking uh sis board member Kelly said that the church is still there are we thinking about after we purchase uh to go into some type of negotiations with them as well as to whether they how long we're going to allow them to stay or are they going to be gone um do you know or you don't know I don't know um I presume that when they when you sell a place you you leave um especially if you're the if you're the if you're the owner if you're the owner which which the church is the owner um we have not talked about the church ever in our negotiation with their attorney we've only talked about the tenant I will ask a question about the church before we close um but my assumption is that they will leave once we close uh if they don't we will work with them and a you know to we're not trying to kick people out on the street uh we'll work with them you know with the board to figure out a timely uh fashion for them to leave now I have my idea on how we should move forward after purchase I've also had individual conversations with you all about some of your ideas and they're not the same so we have to we have to figure that out here in a public session I'll just put my idea on the on the table now for you all to have food for thought I would like to let me not do that now Madam chair I didn't hear the end of no there's no end there's no end okay I don't want to do that yeah we'll leave that beyond that point okay H board member but but Ma Madam chair and I know I know you get irked with me uh by saying this but I'm going to give you my if if when you all go home and you turn on your iPads at night I would just want you to um Google um whenwood Works Omni because that's what I have in my head when I think about these two properties whenwood works omn those are two pieces of there's a piece of property that we purchased for 6 million bucks we sent it out to well we sent out an RFP and we made a deal that we would put in the land as a part of the development we would give a tax increment break but this is what we wanted to see as a part of the development IAM care and the developer came in and built exactly that IAM chair yes sir I don't really want to interrupt him but I do want to interrupt you let's get the get the property first so we start putting somebody could be watching this meeting and going oh okay well let's let's own the property you have individual meetings and you come back and we can hash out what we want to do I think the biggest key was we don't want to obviously kick anybody out and I heard in your discussions you'll have that talk with the owners as well as the tenant bring it back to the board with some timeline but I don't I that's why I didn't want to go that far that's right because let's just own it first before we start doing something with that's right uh thank you board member Kelly and uh I I think did I get you B no yet okay go ahead just quickly I'm going to kind of change what I was going to say because I'm listening to my colleagues but I'm not opposed just so when you go and re negotiate to them remaining until we're ready to do something because this can be a source of income for the CRA while they're there while we're waiting to proceed everybody's good yeah calling call the question board member Kelly yes board member Taylor yes Vice chair Williams yes board member Santiago yes board member bass yes board member Irvin yes board chair Russell yes motion pass 70 resolution number two Mr attorney please resolution number two um is a resolution of the board of the opelo CRA amending approving and adopting an amendment to the opalus um a the agency's proposed General operating and tax increment fund budget for the fiscal year commencing um on October 1st 2024 and ending September 30th 2025 for the allocation of certain funds for the purchase of that certain property located at 240 um bom bamman Avenue as set forth an exhibit a move it second move by board uh member Taylor Taylor second by who second it okay um second by board member Kelly Mr uh director please so this is a budget amendment that we need to make um we did not anticipate purchasing this building that you just approved the item number one and so what we need to do is move some funds around in order for the state to approve us to close on this property in two weeks not only this property will we Clos in two weeks but we will also close on the Bennett Property uh the pink building across the street with the uh turkey restaurant in the back we would we would close on that in two weeks as well so that's 1.6 million plus 3 million is $4.6 million that we will spend in the next two weeks uh to purchase these downtown properties in order to do that we needed to go into our budget to move some funds around in order to cover that cost um so the idea would be that either we tough it out until the end of the year September 30th when we get more money we still have money left in the budget to do projects and and work um but for example there's some items that were zeroed out completely uh if we want to go get a loan um to carry us through September I've been in contact with a bank that will that will loan US money uh up to 2 and a half million bucks I don't think we need that much to replenish the money that we're taking out now I don't think we need to do that we're going to cross that bridge when we get there but that's always an option for us um but right now we need to move this money in order for us to close on the two buildings that we want to purchase and on a side note just so you know that we did close today on 2145 Alibaba Avenue so we own that little dut in the hole and that vacant piece of land over there on Alibaba we closing that today which that those funds were those funds were already um those funds were already dispersed and so that that went through that was $350,000 for that piece of line and so I will I want to um give you what we found in the budget to cut in order for us to come up with the money uh to make the purchase in the Home Improvement assistance program uh we cut that was 500,000 budgeted for that for that program what page you on so these are my notes so oh okay they should be in the they should be in the resolution it should be page 30 of the resolution that we these are my these are my notes uh Home Improvement assistance program was 500,000 we reduce that by 250,000 yes I see the home ownership uh rental assistance program we had $200,000 in there we wiped that out $200,000 um other contractual Services we reduced by $216,000 uh development assistance uh we reduced by $800,000 the housing initiatives $27,000 we reduced that entirely by $270,000 now I just want to make an aster note on this one because the $270 were statutorily required to to uh set aside for housing initiatives but because our ultimate purpose for the purchase of this land is to put housing on those lots it is usable it's usable we can count it towards Housing Initiative by moving this money out of there um because we're purchasing to ultimately put those lots for Housing Development uh the parks Improvement uh was $250,000 um sorry madam Irwin but we we we had s okay we had to take that out it's a new year we had to take that out um and but again there's it could come back there's another way that we there's other ways that we can work this uh and bring it back to you and and move other stuff around later but right now we need to get this done um the green project we had allocated 300,000 we reduced that by half $150,000 which uh increases our building purchase uh line item by $2.3 million which gives us a blind item of $ 5,183 26 which will allow us to close on all these properties plus closing cost uh in two weeks mam chair yes sir thank you thank you for the breakdown um I do realize that we need to um move some funds to accommodate this and we're on time line I wouldn't be in favor of the loan so I'm glad you mentioned uh you're not for it because I don't think we need to quote unquote borrow money at this point for something of that nature and I think some of the other line items that are decreasing with the ownership rental assistant and um even with the park I think that they're going to be other opportunities to explore to still accomplish that and just by way of example I know the rental assistance for example we we all liked it but we know we need to rework it retweet it and revise it and since that has not come back to the board yet um that's a good opportunity to go ahead and utilize U that transfer until we know how I want to work it because we like it but we did experience a lot of hiccups and headaches so I don't have a problem with moving it around I would just ask that um once this is closed and we've got achieved all the properties some of the line items that you had to totally decrease come back to the board with some uh potential funding level that they can function that CU we'll already be more than likely you know we're already a quarter to the to the budget anyway so you're talking probably funding them for four five 6 months Max at any level which I think can be attainable but some of them that we like we do need to restructure rwe so I look forward to that so I I can um support it because the main thing is to have the funds get the properties and as you mentioned earlier we'll be getting some residual to folks staying there for a while anyway uh with the daycare and some of the other so I don't have a um a problem with that just after we purchase it come back with some kind of template of how you're going to replenish some of them as you work to retweet some of the initiatives that we um have had in the past and were popular with the with the community thank you uh Madam chair anyone else Madam chair yes I I can't sit here and act like I don't have an issue because I do only because this has been two years that we've talked about this and then this come up over we talked about the park situation this come up overnight and then it gets booted I have an issue and I just wanted to State it for the record that I do have an issue with it thank you yes anyone else Madam chair yes ma'am I understand where commissioner board member um Irving is coming from but at the same time I still understand how it works when it comes to purchase purchasing property some times you have to hit it while you can and look for monies elsewhere to complete the original um task we have at hand but I understand where she's coming from but I still think we need to jump and get this as soon as possible uh before uh um board member Kelly you you finished board member bass I'm gonna go back to Irv first please okay I understand that but I know I I live a real life and I know that this time is this and it's going to be something else the next time because that's the way life have it that's what I'm saying that's it um Madam chair before uh go ahead board member Kelly before you um there there's nobody that loves Parks more than me so I I totally understand where commissioner is coming from I think the only reason that I'm okay with this because as commissioner bass says when you're trying to purchase you got to do that the other Park is we're still waiting waiting on the park master plan and that and we also know that if the city's doing something CRA can't do it so that's the only reason I I'm okay with transferring the money and I use the statement to replenish or put back because I know we haven't made any decisions yet because the city you know um is planning on doing some stuff and if they're going to do something then the CRA can't do it so I want to make I would hope and I believe the the director's meeting with the uh manager on that and so that's the only reason I would be and am supportive of it because I saw that as well so we're on the same page with the parks no doubt about that uh Mr director before you um before you uh respond you are after um we purchased these properties um I'm not for the loan I'm not I think that if we have money we need to use the money that we have and then um kind of tough it out to the end of the year but you are looking at replenishing these line items that we have I am um and I am I do have some ideas on how we could do that obviously as as the vice mayor uh pointed out we're getting closer to the middle of the year we only have you know maybe five six more months left in the year so there are some programs that we can look at we have starters to look at on if we're going to spend all of this money then can we reallocate a budget is a living breathing document it's nothing that's set in stone as we're doing tonight we can change it whenever we want when the project comes up yes this money was in here last year and nothing came up and so it was not spent last year I did have a meeting with the manager uh last month and we did discuss the parks master plan and it doesn't seem like anything's going to come up tomorrow in order for us to be funding $250,000 in park Improvement no one has brought anything to our attention that that that that we're ready to spend this money now and so that's why we have to make a decision right now we're trying to buy this property on in downtown we're moving it now is there a way that we can replenishes absolutely if there's something that's imminent that comes up where there's important that we need $250,000 for Park Improvement I guarantee you that we can find $250,000 to make that happen uh but for right now for the purposes of the downtown master plan uh we need to move this money um today if we find more money we'll move it back okay any other uh comments or concerns if not um Madame clerk can you call the uh call the question please board member Taylor yes Vice chair Williams yes board member Santiago yes soorry yes board member bath yes board member Irvin yes board member Kelly yes board chair Russell yes motion pass 70 and M may I know Peggy's goingon to kill me but just one example for for um council person Irwin um one of the other things that we are looking at one of the things I told you that we're trying to forecast is for example the green project we took $150,000 out of there but we left $150,000 in there and we are talking with the people that are doing that program to see if we're going to actually spend $150,000 for the rest of until September 30th that's one of the line items that we're looking at if they say no we're only going to spend 50,000 I will come back to you and say okay let's reduce green project by another $100,000 and put that in parks and there are other areas in the budget that we can do that but this is the best we can do on short notice that we had right now to closing these properties okay thank you Mr director um resolution number three please Mr attorney resolution number three a resolution of the uh opalak CR board authorizing the executive director to designate and conduct a community cleanup day in the C boundary area and to execute any an all documents necessary to evacuate the program move it move by board member Taylor second by uh uh board member Kelly Mr director please um this is um um vice mayor um Kelly's um item uh this is a cleanup that we're scheduling for the um triangle area is that the item we're on yes okay for the yes sir um thank you I well let me start by saying this um during our year last year the city did not really do any beautification or followup and part of it may have been funding or whatever the reason so I asked the C director to look at the CRA area that we could at least do a beautification effort and he identified the area within the beautification uh wellin the SI Zone that could be done we were looking at um several dates and um we were trying to really get it in before the mayor stated the city um and before well we didn't know at the time strategic planning because I thought that was going to be close as well and so we kind of settled on the Saturday after the um state of city which I know would be kind of tough so I'm amable if the board wants to change that because I know that's going to be a big night but the intent um is to have the CRA be the Catalyst for this beautification because it's in the CRA Zone Zone and the city wouldn't have to bear the cost but also would allow the C to go into an area that is you know in the zone and do some beautification um efforts and maintenance and all those kind of things uh within the CRA uh area and so I asked him to put it in um resolution form to bring it back to the board to discuss with the budget he has a total cost of $2,000 um and so that's why it is there because um I think it does serve a purpose I know in the past I think way back it might have been a cleanup done um but I don't think there's been any done in the city anywhere recently and so I thought this would be a good way um to get started in that effort as I said initially was trying to find a date that wasn't really hectic for everybody um but then after we kind of sell it on the first realizing that the St the city is on the 31st so I know everybody's going to be possibly tired from um celebrating so I am a meable if the board wants to change the date but I do think we need to do the uh initiative of the cleanup community cleanup date in the C boundary and so that's why it's there with a um total cost of up to $2,000 and of course we would invite other agencies entities um that would want to come in and be a part to be a part um of that beautification initiative and that's the purpose of the resolution and Madam chair listen to any thoughts concerns or suggestions um about it thank you Madame chair yes uh board uh Vice chair Williams board member Kelly can you uh you might have said this but where what's the area in which you're thinking that we would clean up Madam chair yes sir um it would be the area the the CR director um designated area that's in our Zone that the SI can pay for um I'll yield to him the exact boundaries but I know it's Magnolia North but I don't know about the exact streets or whatever but Magnolia nor got it up with you okay thank you okay anyone else on the board um uh I have a question $2,000 really isn't a lot of money can you tell me what we're what we're doing are we uh putting plants are we what are we doing no we're not doing that we're just cleaning up sweeping picking up trash we're going to buy um t-shirts uh we're buying t-shirts we're buying the garbage you know all the the gloves all the materials that you would need for people to clean up but we didn't go into planting and all that stuff okay so we're just basically cleaning up the streets yes yes ma'am uh within the Magnolia or North Area We're Going H how how far are we going are we going the whole area or what are we doing let me get back to you on that I'll let you know I'm not sure yet I we we want to sit down with uh commissioner Kelly and go over that as well um but right now we're the idea was to start where the park is um and then go all the way down to the triangle and come come around some you know that triangle area basically um then also depends on how many people also how many people we uh we get to volunteer which would would determine how much ground we cover okay tell me what's the date again the date was uh February 1st and again um we were going back and forth in the date because originally we were thinking the state of the city was going to be a different date initially and it was moved to the 31st which is that Friday the other part is this was would have been on our agenda if we had had our regular meeting yes it would have been two weeks earlier that we would have had it and because we didn't meet so we're really right up against and that's why I said in my initial statement I'm not opposed to even changing uh the date because it is kind of close and I really want to hear from the mayor he want to say nothing but I want to hear from him because I you know being a mayor I know Friday's a big night and and everybody's going to be there and be supportive and that's why I said I'm a meable even to changing it but I think the scope um of having it February 1st was based on if we had have met the second you know Tuesday in January which was giving us much more um time and I also want to piggy back something you mentioned about plants and Shrubbery or whatever and the reason I didn't really want to get into that because number one the time frame and number two the amount of money if you started getting into trees and plants and given that we're buying a lot of property and whatever I didn't want to to do that now as we're over there if the board members you know see something because I don't have a green thumb so I'm that's not me but if you identify you know area looks good with plants here or something here and we can come back to the board and do that later um I'm not opposed to that but I do want to throw five 6,000 on some plants and trees and you know don't have the the ability to really maintain it or have a plan for it so that's why I said that thank you mam chair before uh uh board member Santiago the reason why I asked that because I know we don't have irrigation so to put plants or trees or it would be useless if you know we didn't have a plan in place to make sure that they were taken care of so that's the reason why I was asking what was the $2,000 board member Santiago um thank you Madame chair that's what I want to know about you mentioning the $2,000 me like not enough for the project that we have I'm from because it's something that we're going to clean out the area okay we're going to pick up all the garbage and trash that we found all over around the road and you're talking about the people that going to be out there they voluntary or yes everybody everybody okay and it's only one question with that $2,000 we we have plans to see where we're going to Tru bring all the garbage back of the area yes who going to pay for it oh excuse me board member tell you want to jump you're jumping in there to answer this question I have a suggestion um but yes ma'am um we did a clean up with the county a couple years ago and I think we can approach the county to donate the supplies through one of the I think at that time I think Waste Management did it they did the pck sticks and the the trash was and then they also took the trash with them so I know we have three vendors in the city I'm sure one of the three will be willing to donate the P sticks donate the gloves donate the bags donate and also bring a truck which is what the county did at that time and haul the trash away yes so and I think that would help to offset the cost because you said $2,000 but I personally think $2,000 is enough money but I understand what the intent is but if we take this moment this opportunity these next couple weeks to approach our vendors I know we can get it donated the supplies at least the supplies I I I'm I'm very happy with that answer that's what I want okay and and and if we don't have sorry and if we don't have and we don't have to spend the money we won't spend it oh okay so what I think uh I heard board member Kelly says that maybe we could change the date because that is short uh period of time and the following week I don't uh anyone has their calendar with them that's Saturday the the 8th that would be helpful that would give us time to meet with uh the vice mayor and also meet with the vendors that see if they can help us out okay and and I have uh uh one more suggestion um if we could please start um at the beginning of 22nd Avenue and if we're going to come down Alibaba if we could start on that corner of 27th Avenue 22nd Avenue because that uh that little area right there where that empty lot is uh normally gets a little bit overlooked and since we throwing our suggestions I know y'all gonna have this like 8 o'clock in the morning are we gonna have coffee and bagels yes that that is part of the $2000 that is part of the $2000 I I live it up to the to the director but it's for some some bagels or donuts and then Poss possibly um some kind of not lunch but some sandwiches if you go to 12 cuz the intent was like 9 to 12 so that was part of the um budget cost if you will um to do that yeah that was part of yeah you got fight out of you gotta remember now this was on the on the agenda for two three weeks ago so but $2,000 you talking about bags P sticks Andes and coffee and nobody mentioning water only get one cup coffee now GLE yeah water you ain't get one

Madam chair um Mr Mr attorney and um director we need to bring the audit to the commission the commission yes what do we the C so that we can yes yes okay chair because it was always it was already submitted on the city side but we also need to vote it on the yes yeah I reminded him about that on yesterday by very sure very sure M but I found today the uh they NATO um uh board member uh Lis B Santiago is not still in day County Board and I want to say that I don't want nobody be offending but I I feel the respected with that that is already two months and my name is not there yet oh where the CRA no yes no the county has a website for CRA board all the CRA boards around the county I presume um there's a section for opaka on the County website that lists the board members I believe it's our mistake because we probably should have told the county that we have new board members and we didn't do that so they still have Miss Williams I think it's an oversight nothing to be insulted about we just have to tell them that Miss Williams is no longer a board member and that Mr Santiago is and we will do that first thing in the morning so that they can change their website at the county miami.gov okay for now on okay M chair thank you make sure it's done first thing in the morning yeah okay thank you yes and but he's on the Flyers for our stuff I've seen you on the flyers in the city
