OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER CITY HALL GAVIN W.O'BRIEN 1700 CONVENTION CENTER DRIVE CITY MANAGER /� TELEPHONE: 873.7010 COMMISSION MEMORANDUM NO. 758° .`�8° DATE: March 7, 1979 TO: Dr. Leonard Haber, Mayor and Members of the City Commission • FROM: Gavin W. O'Brien n1 City Manager ►� �/ SUBJECT: REPLACEMENT FACILITY FOR GOODMAN TERRACE BACKGROUND Since the early stages of planning for the. South Shore Redevelopment Project, it has been apparent that Goodman Terrace must be demolished and that a replacement facility must be constructed. The U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development has taken the position that a replacement facility must be constructed prior to demolition of Goodman Terrace. This requirement will not permit the Redevelopment Agency to simply relocate the current residents of Goodman Terrace to other housing facilities either within the redevelopment area or else- . where. HUD' s position is that a replacement facility must be built for low and moderate income persons. Recently, the Executive Director of the Housing Authority has met with Redevelopment Agency staffand my staff to discuss the required replacement and to review conditions under which the replacement could occur in order to serve the best interests of the City of Miami Beach. .The first action requested of the City Commission is the adoption of a resolution approving the Housing Authority' s request for a. loan of approximately $50,000 from the ' U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development. The purpose of the loan would be to study potential sites, estimate land and constructions costs and assemble a full proposal to be submitted to HUD' s Jacksonville Area Office for approval and funding. In our discussions with Mr. Gilman, we have taken the position that approval of the Housing Authority' s loan request must be made with the understanding that the City wishes to impose certain conditions upon the loan application and the project proposal. We have further indicated that any resolution forwarded to the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development must ;include those conditions which would be binding upon the Housing Authority in its implementation of the project if approved. CONDITIONS Following are several conditions which should accompany approval by the City Commission of the Housing Authority' s request for loan: -:' ' 1. All construction and financing documents mustbe approved by the City Commission prior to execution 81 by the Housing Authority. AGENDA .. ITEM DATE. ' ,.�' _ COMMISSION MEMORANDUM NO. 7390 DATE: March 7, 1979 2. The Housing. Authority must sign a letter agreement or similar written agreement with the Redevelopment Agency assuring that relocatees from the South. Shore Project will have first priority for occupancy in the new project, after relocation of current Goodman Terrace residents. 3. The City Commission, City Attorney and City Manager will receive copies of the loan application, site evaluation studies, project proposals, etc. when completed, which are developed as a result of the City Commission' s ' approval of the loan request. 4. Site evaluation and feasibility studies must include consideration of more than one site and consideration of a 50-unit replacement facility, as well as larger ones. , 5. The City Commission must approve the specific site and number of project units proposed for the housing project prior to any actions by the Housing Authority to obtain financing and begin acquisition of land. RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Commission adopt the attached resolution approving the City of Miami Beach Housing Authority' s loan request to the U.S. Department of Housing & Urban Development, which includes the conditions enumerated in this memorandum, and that a certified copy of that resolution be sent to the U.S. V Department of Housing & Urban Development, Jacksonville Area Office.
