FROM: ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Chairman and Members of the Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency adopt the attached Resolution. BACKGROUND: Under terms of the Hotel Development Agreement, entered into by and between the Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency (RDA) and Loews Hotel Holding Corporation on September 20, 1996, there is no provision for the RDA's consultant, Tishman Hotel Corporation, to receive copies of plans, specifications, notices and other documentation pertaining to the Loews Hotel project. At that time Tishman had not been selected for the project management role. ANALYSIS Since Tishman has been engaged in the capacity of project manager for the City on the hotel proj ects, it is .imperati ve that they S()UTti V()I~I: I:?edevel()pment ()Istri(:t CIIT CI:~I:l? l?edevel()pment ()istrl(:t receive the documentation directly and in a timely manner. It is necessary to amend the Hotel Development Agreement to identify Tishman as the City and RDA I S designated recipient of these documents. This will avoid unnecessary delays in the review of the plans and response as required in the Agreement. CONCLUSION The Administration recommends amending the Hotel Development Agreement accordingly. .~ JGP/HM:kob Attachments FIRST AMENDMENT TO HOTEL DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT THIS FIRST AMENDMENT TO HOTEL DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT (the "Amendment") is made as of the 1st day of January, 1997, by MIAMI BEACH REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY ("Owner") and MB REDEVELOPMENT, INC., a Florida corporation ("Developer").
