In adopting this Resolution supporting the Performing Arts Center Complex Bonds, the City is relying on the continued validity and enforceability of the priorities set forth in this Resolution, including but not limited to the prioritization of the $4.5 million for. operations and maintenance expense deficits for the Convention Center and City is relying upon the County's continued support of said priorities, as long as any bonds issued hereunder remain outstanding, notwithstanding any refunding of the 1987 Bonds or termination of the Interlocal Agreement. 10. In adopting this Resolution allocating funds to the construction and operation and maintenance of the Performing Arts Center Complex, the City of Miami Beach is not approving the site selected for the Performing Arts Center Complex. Should the Performing Arts Center Complex not be feasible on the selected site on or after July 1, 1996, this Resolution does not preclude the City of Miami Beach from being considered as a site for a Performing Arts Center Complex. Should the City of Miami Beach then be selected, as the site for the Performing Arts Center Complex by the County, any and all plans associated with the current Performing Arts Center Complex site will be transferred to the City of Miami Beach at no cost. Further, should the County wish to refund or defease any debt outstanding pursuant to a designation in this resolution or issue any debt pursuant to a designation in this resolution, a public hearing shall be held and written notice given to the City. Additionally, the City is to be given written notice of any bond validation hearing related to any debt or refunding debt to be issued pursuant to ,a designation made herein. 11. The City is relying on the County's assertion that it will utilize its best efforts in good faith to secure an open indenture for the financial structure of the Performing Arts Complex Bonds. 12. Resolution Nos. 89-19785, 90-19984 and 91-20358 are hereby amended and restated to conform with this Resolution. 13. This resolution shall be effective immediately upon its adoption.

Canto , • City Manager )H L11 J SUBJECT: ADDENDUM TO R-7-K, EXCESS CITY SHARE RESOLUTION FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS CENTER At the conclusion of the Finance Committee Meeting of .Monday, April 20, 1992, the Administration summarized six (6) points which were discussed at the meeting. These points are as follows: 1) The Resolution should be changed to include language which would allow for the funding of the Challenge Capital Grants Program for eligible art organizations to be funded as soon as funds from the Convention Development Tax (CDT) Revenue Stream become available. • 2) The Resolution should be changed to include language which would allow for more flexibility in the allocation' of funding between the Challenge Capital Grants Program and the reimbursement of demonstrated adverse impact from the • Performing Arts Center Complex. 3) The Resolution should be changed to include language which • would not allow for the early retirement of the Performing • Arts Center Complex Bonds by the County, but would, instead, allow for the future designation, by the City, of the .Excess Share for eligible projects; if any Excess Share exists. 4) The Resolution should be changed to include language which would guarantee, for as far in the future as possible, the continued allocation of $4.5 million per year to fund the operating deficits of the Miami Beach Convention Center. 5) The City of Miami Beach representatives on the Performing Arts Center Trust should be briefed on the City's position concerning the Performing Arts Center Complex and should represent the City's position at the Trust Meetings. 6) The Administration was directed to identify any eligible - • programs for CDT Funding which exist on Miami Beach and to submit those projects to the City Commission for designation of eligibility in the flow of funds generated from the CDT. Of the six (6) items listed above, items 5 and 6 were directions given to the Administration for internal follow-up and, therefore, were not considered as items to be negotiated with the County. continued.. . ..

Memo. - 2 - April 22, 1992 Performing Arts Center In order to bring items 1 through 4 to closure, a meeting was held with the County Manager and his Administrative staff during the noon recess of the County Commission Meeting on April 21, 1992 . Items 1 and 2 were_ agreed to and have been added to the attached Amended Resolution (see highlighted areas) . Item 3, which was to add language which would not allow for the early retirement of Performing Arts Center Complex debt and to provide for future designation of any Excess Share of the CDT, was not accepted by the County. The County Administration felt that the ability to issue and market bonds for the Performing Arts Center Complex was jeopardized by allowing for a subsequent designation of the CDT. Succinctly, the County felt that a sixth lien on the CDT revenue stream was not bondable unless all available revenues were allocated for the debt service on the bonds. Item 4 was to add language which would strengthen the existing commitment for the continued funding of the $4.5 million towards the deficit of the Convention Center beyond Item IVB of the County Manager's letter of April 14, 1992, which reads "will continue to be included". Further, the resolution passed by the County Commission on March 17, 1992, which reaffirms the County's commitment to the deficit funding for the Miami Beach Convention Center pursuant to the November 6, 1990, Performing Arts Center Complex Financing Plan. The November 6, 1990, Financing Plan anticipated the funding of the $4.5 million through the final maturity of the Performing Arts Center Complex Bonds, estimated to be 2020 (which is twelve (12) years beyond the maturity of the Convention Center Construction Bonds) . While the County Manager agreed in concept to fund the $4.5 million ' in perpetuity, he was unable to commit to any language which would guarantee this funding at the expense of the County's refunding discretion. ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION: - Approximately 30 days ago, the City Commission directed me to negotiate with Dade County to achieve additional protections within the Excess City Share Resolution attached hereto. Since that time, the following has been achieved: 1) A pool of funds to provide a Challenge Capital Grant Program for eligible arts organizations. These funds will ' assist eligible community based arts. organizations to improve the smaller community theaters throughout Dade County. 2) A - pool of funds to reimburse eligible cultural arts facilities should they demonstrate any adverse impact as a result of the construction of the Performing Arts Center Complex. 3) The consideration of Miami Beach as a possible site for the complex should the existing site not come to fruition. 4) Should, as a result of 3 above, the complex be relocated to the City of Miami- Beach, all studies, plans and specifications would be made available to the City at no cost. 5) Any refunding or defeasance of the existing bonds on the part of Dade County will require a Public Hearing with specific notice being given to the City of Miami Beach. 6) Should the County decide to hold a bond validation hearing on any additional or refunding bonds, the City will receive formal written notice of such. continued. . . 49 i -I 4`• "1', ' � I I: - - F� II II i l(' i '�' l..S I }` ( I ICI 41 ,• .� 1 . j c•.:.�. t 11!rt%) ~•• I ., Ir• N I1• 1 I.�- `I I ' I �� �..y I II) i ' .

Memo. - 3 - April 22, 1992 Performing Arts Center 7) Although not related to this issue. the County Manager in his letter of April 14, 1992, has agreed to work with the City on many items which will have a substantial positive financial impact on the City of Miami Beach. Given all the above points, it must be noted that previous Miami Beach Commissions (Resolution 89-19785, adopted November 8, 1989) , have agreed to the funding of the Performing Arts Center Complex from the CDT Revenue Stream. Resolution No. 90-19941, adopted March 21, 1990, expressed the support of the City of Miami Beach for the Performing Arts Center Complex on the Knight Ridder site. Based on these previous actions of the City Commission, the November 6, 1990, Performing Arts Center Complex Financing Plan, which includes an allocation of the Miami Beach Excess City Share, was approved by the County Commission and was reaffirmed on March 17, 1992, in Resolution No. R-312-92. Although the Administration was unable to achieve a "no risk" protection of the deficit funding for the Convention Center, it was able to achieve through the various points stated above a substantial level of comfort through a combination of previous related actions of the County Commission and the April 14, 1992, letter from the County Manager that the deficit funding is protected through 2020. Based on all of the above, and the need to foster cooperation with Dade County, the Administration's recommendation is to approve the attached Excess City Share Resolution. RMC:CBT:blb Attachment 50 1
