MEMORANDUM
TO:
The Honorable Mayor and City Commission
FROM:
Minai Shah, Assistant City Manager-Finance
DATE:
5120/2010
RE:
Assigning 151 Sunny Isles Boulevard as the eligible property for the Safe
Neighborhood Grant.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff is requesting Commission to approve the attached Resolution for the substitution of
488 Sunny Isles Boulevard to 151 Sunny Isles Boulevard to be eligible for the Safe
Neighborhood Grant.
REASONS:
On July 16, 2009, via Resolution No. 2009-1449, the City Commission authorized the
City Manager to apply for, receive and accept a Safe Neighborhood Parks Bond Program
Grant with Miami-Dade County, for the Bella Vista Bay Park Expansion Project, in the
amount of $200,000.00. The qualifying property for this grant is 488 Sunny Isles
Boulevard. Since the property owners of the eligible property have filed bankruptcy, the
City may not have the opportunity to purchase this property by the December 31,
2010 grant deadline. As such, we are respectfully requesting the Commission to
authorize the current City-owned property at 151 Sunny Isles Boulevard to be the
qualifying property for the SNP grant to prevent the potential loss of this grant award.
