From: Roger M. carltoni I. I. ~
Executive Directc:UlL VI-V
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION OF THE MIAMI BEACH REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
REQUESTING TAX EXEMPTION ON PROPERTY LOCATED AT 126 AND
140 WASHINGTON AVENUE, MIAMI BEACH, ACQUIRED IN LIEU OF
EMINENT DOMAIN PROCEEDINGS TO BE INSTITUTED BY THE MIAMI
BEACH REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY, FOR PUBLIC USE.
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION:
The Administration recommends that the Redevelopment Agency's
(Agency) Board adopt the attached Resolution authorizing the
Executive Director to formally request exemption from taxes on the
recently acquired properties located at 126 and 140 washington
Avenue.
BACKGROUND:
On Se'Dtember 20. 1989, Agency Resolution 86-89 authorized the
Administration to acquire by purchase, donation, or eminent domain
those parcels on Block 53 that may be required for the assemblage
of the Cobb Project site.
Prudential Florida Realty, the real estate agents for the owners of
two parcels located within Block 53 approached the Agency
Administration regarding the sale of the lots at 126 and 140
Washington Avenue. Negotiations with the agents resulted in an
"Offer for Sale" in the amount of $139,000.
On June 17. 1992, The Redevelopment Agency's Board, via Resolution
118-92, authorized the Agency Administration to purchase both
properties for $139,000.
On November 12. 1992 the Agency successfully closed the Contract
for Purchase and Sale to acquire the subject properties.
ANALYSIS:
Since the Agency currently holds title to the property, a formal
request should be made to exempt the property from taxes, as of the
date of acquisition, pursuant to Florida Statutes, Section 163.395.
CONCLUSION:
The Agency Administration should proceed with said request to
Metropolitan Dade County by transmitting a copy of this Resolution
to the Metropolitan Dade County Commission, its County Manager, its
Tax Assessor, and its Tax Collector.
