This is the report for December 23 to May 2024. I was told that we may have Mr. Paul built an online. And do we have him online? I do not seem online and he is not in person. Is there anyone else that could speak on behalf of Paul built in and this organization? All right, so if there's, I see hearing no one.

Good evening, Board. Mercedes-Coppin, business development and promotions manager. I have a PowerPoint that I'd like to go through with you. We are very thrilled that we were awarded eight awards from the Florida Festivals and Events Association for our various efforts that we had over the past year for our marketing and business promotional activations. So we receive a first place award for the enchanted market at Pirate Fest for our photo op area as well as the promotional item and for the holiday boat parade a first place award for our promotional mailer and T-shirt. And here are the images here for that photo op area that said the enchanted market. And we also promoted our local businesses that were participating at the event on one side, as well as our downtown merchants as well. These were the promotional bags that were actually rebranded. Those were street manners from our previous year. So we recycled those banners and created banner bags and we handed those out with the treasure hunt winners or two the treasure hunt winners. This is one. Oh okay we have some. That can be cool. They are really cool. They're they're they're I'll definitely get one to you for sure. I can get one for all of you. This is a promotional mailer that we mailed out for the calling all captains for last year's holiday boat parade. And this is our t-shirt that Gabby actually created in house for the holiday boat parade. This was provided to all of the boat parade participants. And I believe that we also provide each of you with one as well last year. Moving on to our second place awards, we received a second place award for the night market event photo as well as our promotional recap video for the spring market. This is the photo that we won for, and our photographers did an amazing job capturing all the event, including that. And then also the recap video for this spring market. And then finally, with our third place, we received best event photo for the enchanted market at Pirefus as well as the night market, full board and signage. This is a really cute photo that was captured during that activation as well as our promotional signage. And that's basically it. I just want to say that I'm just very thrilled as always to work with such an amazing team. They're not here tonight, running in Gabby, but they worked really hard on all of these projects collectively together. We did. We're just so happy to be having been honored. All right. Thank you. All right. You guys are always doing a great job. So keep it up, I'll stand it. All right. Moving on to the next section of the agenda. But before I do, actually, can we double check still, no Paul? Still no Paul? All right. What can I keep going? The next portion of the agenda is public comments. This is a time for public comments on items under consent or non-agenda items. So if this is your first time coming here, the way this usually works is you have three minutes per person. Again, this is for items under consent or non-agenda items. And after we conclude with those in person, we'll go to those online. It is not a Q&A, but we are taking down notes as you are speaking. There is a timer and there's one in the back and one in the front. Let me switch the timer. All right. Is anyone interested in speaking now under public comments? All right. Whenever you're ready, just state your name for the record and begin. Thank you. My name is Dan Zimmerman. I live in Boynton Beach. I am in the process of purchasing a die boat called Delta Splash. It has been in the Marina for since 1989 and part of an organization that's been down there since 1983. In my process of trying to buy it, I was trying to get a hold of the Marina manager. I've been working there for approximately five years to extend the slipleys, which I knew would expire when the current owner sold the boat. During that process, I was unable to get a hold of the Marina manager to talk to him until after he'd already evicted the current owner from the slip. I am really just looking for an opportunity to keep the boat in its home that it's had since 1989. Delta Splash has a huge amount of loyal tourists that come in from out of town, a lot of local people that come into town. We bring a lot of business to Boiton Beach, people from Tampa, people from up north that come down and spend the weekend, groups and dive organizations and dive clubs that come down and dive with us and help keep the reef clean and healthy and also, you know, it's the best place to dive and I don't really want to move it if I don't have to because I'm also living boy and be. So I'm just looking to see if I can get some help and trying to at least have an opportunity to keep the boat in the slip that it's at for a long time. Thank you. Thank you. One second. Let me just make sure the timer is. I noticed that. I was strange. I've never seen that happen before. Anyone have an expert on this? I can't even get it to reset like I normally do. Last value, stop. No? Zero doubt. Last value. Set minutes. One, two, three, stop. I'll use my phone. I'll use my phone. I'll let you know when you have 30 seconds. One second, sir. As always, just state your name for the record and begin when you're ready. I'm going to go to the next floor. All right. As always, just state your name for the record and begin when you're ready. I'll let you know in 30 seconds. Thank you. My name is Dan Volker. I live in Lake Worth. I'd like to speak on behalf of the dive tourism in Boynton Beach. I'm one of the people that helped create dive tourism in Palm Beach, starting back with the county in the early 1990s, Splashdown, it's one of the first boats that ever made a big dent in bringing a lot of people from all over the world to Palm Beach County. And they've also become pretty famous for the Goliath Grupper aggregation, which Boen gets famous for with the castor in Splashdown was again one of the very first operators that started getting Boen Beach to be famous all over the world. Other things that Splashdown is responsible for, they were involved in a groundbreaking program called Project Seahorse a few years back, that Boyn Beach won best community outrage in the state for. We were taking underprivileged children that couldn't swim, teaching them to swim and snorkel and bringing them to our reefs. They've just done incredible things. So now we're facing a time when the marina for whatever reason, management of it has decided that they want to get rid of splash down for an agenda that we don't understand when this is one of the operations that's bringing a better face forward for Buenbeach and the future of its economy than literally any other business in the marina. So I know how hard you people are trying to make this a great city that has a great future. I just think that if you pulled each of the boats that's there, that we're trying to make this a better place for tourism, so that the higher collapse of tourists that you want to love to come to Wendewen Beach is going to enjoy this place. I think you should know what the boats and the businesses there think and maybe here why this is one of the boats that should be staying and maybe even think about how the management of the NREDA might have a better path than the one that it's on right now. Thank you. All right, thank you. Anyone else for public comments? And is there anybody online? I see no one online except for a speaker for a specific item. With that public comments, our net is now closed. We're going to turn back now to, I'm sorry, did you want to speak? I was waiting for somebody to come on up. Come on up and you'll be the last speaker. Then afterwards I see that Mr. Paul built in has entered the room, so you'll come and give your update afterwards. All right. I'll try and keep this short. State your name for the record and begin when you're ready. Thank you. My name is Kimberly Chase. I have on my home in an area called Grayson Heights for about 20 years. I glue in when I got blew out of Del-Rabiche, about a mile up the road. This is an area that's east of Seacrest, just south of the scrub, north of Gulfstream Road, west of Dixie Highway, and an area of about 120 homes. The series has flipped several times, while like some I struggled to keep my home. My grandmother died. I added a roof. What I never expected was our neighborhood to be overrun by short-term rentals as it has been for the past two years. These are investors as well as homeowners. I've been in business here in South Florida for 25 years, servicing vacationers at home, privacy and relationships with neighbors is highly valued. I did not overpay for my home to live next to hotel or a water park with screaming children 10 hours daily. I've utilized Airbnb and have nothing against it. Now I do. For those like me who don't understand how this impacts our communities, Airbnb is responsible for landlords evicting tenants for short-term rentals since the revenue is up to 30% higher. Hoser obviously flying under our local and state tax radar. One year ago, I contacted Patrick Hart, Community Service Director and mentioned the short-term rental issues which include but are not limited to the following. Proximity. I live 20 feet from one rental, 65 feet from another, share a side fence with one and another one behind me. That's four continuous businesses across the street, to a joining, all pull homes which carry sound. These are one quarter acre lots in an R1A7 residential-owned area. Noise. This is not the same noise a resident would make seven days a week, nor residents family. It's disruptive to the peace, safety, tranquility, and to the entire neighborhood when volumes of strangers coming in out. In just 48 hours, I noticed five different vehicles parked 10 feet from my property line approximately 15 feet from the bedroom window. I've lost all ability to sleep hearing different dinging and doors slamming. Nothing deemed a new sense unless it happens after 9pm. Over 40 weeks by the way that equals 200 vehicles or 50 average each week. We are in a south of a 53-h acre nature preserve which should also be respected. Because I know I'm limited to three minutes so I'm just going to briefly keynote some of the other issues which has been trash. These properties leave their bins all week long. 30 seconds. Okay, thank you so much. Traffic disturbances, these are businesses, they belong in a business district. It's just that simple. What I'd like you to do about it, make it harder for the absentee owners. Institute policies like other beach communities in Florida requiring propane tank inspection further safety violations of these properties include swimming pool violations fire regulation Problems I would like you to prohibit rentals under 30 days in R1A seven plots Increase your time if you could wrap it up. Please because your time's running out. Thank you. Limit proximity to no closer than 250 feet to other dwellings and or put these in business districts. Thank you sir. Your time I appreciate it. Thank you. All right. That is the end of public comments. We're going to turn now back to Paul built in. Paul if you could give us an update on the Welsh Landing Apartments as well as the shops. Good evening. Good evening. And I've already said my name, so thank you very much. Yes, Welsh Landing, as you probably know, Hard of Boynton, the apartment, the residential portion of it has been completed. We got the final certificate of it has been completed. We got the final certificate of occupancy in July and all units, all 120 of them are occupied by affordable housing tenants. We have been trying to also complete the commercial portion and we're moving forward with that. We sent out some cost estimates to tenants. We have been going back and forth on design for the build out and we're trying to get to where we can start the construction of the build out and where it stands right now. We anticipate starting construction of build out and during the early part of October. For the commercial space. All right. Thank you so much. Board member, hey, did you have any questions for Paul? Yes, I'm getting some complaints about they've done everything submitted, all they need to submit, and they're waiting on you guys to move. What was the story behind that? Do you know what it'd be called up? There are eight commercial units, and each one has its own story. We had from waiting on anything from them. And some instances we're waiting on them, and other instances it's still in our court. What do you need? Final design and or acceptance of our cost estimates. Now we have not provided cost estimates to everybody. So it's not all in somebody else's courts, a sum is in our court. I understand and excuse me for cutting out my understanding that that may be about three, but at least five of them, you have everything you need. So what is the, what is the whole look? The one that's farthest along is 102, which we just got a revised cost estimate based on the final design, which I know it went out late today, but it didn't go out today for 102. Then there is 108, which is the police station, if you will, and we will have a cost estimate out to you, to the CRA and the city by the end of this week. And I believe 107 is about ready to go. So those three units, we are ready to start construction on. They have been basically permitted, subject to final GC contract agreement and payment of permit fees. We can start those in on early October. When it comes to the others, especially we have two restaurants, 104 and 105. Those have been a lot of back and forth. There's been changes in tenant. There's been changes in consultant hired by the tenant and there's been changes in design back in fourth. We just recently submitted a revised cost estimate to 105 based on the most recent plans that we have and we're waiting for them to get back to us. I don't have all the specifics for each one. I don't know if there was anyone in particular that you were interested in. Let me just stay right there. Let me have staff. Are you here and all of this? Are you in agreement? You have a list of what he just stated, and are we all on the same page? We have prepared as part of the MLK update, which you have elected to hear tonight that it has an attachment that shows the status of where we're at with the commercial tenant buildout, which I think Vicki can present. Certainly with things that Mr. building has discussed, there have been instances where there's been some back and forth, obviously. And certainly this is not necessarily a linear process. There's an iterative process where it's a little bit back and forth. I think there are some areas we've been waiting for construction contracts on a couple that longer than it should be, but I think Centennial has been working on that and I'm hoping we're moving forward. I bring it up because we've been working on this a long time. And I don't want this to be the bottleneck to hold us up from completeness and moving forward. Right. I mean, I like it. I mean, I like to add, we had anticipated a lot of the design and tenant selection process to happen a lot sooner. One of the reasons why we offered to be general contractors for the commercial space was that we thought that we will be able to do that commercial work while we were still out there with all our subcontractors. And that didn't happen. It's not an easy process. Each one of these is like a little baby project on its own. Not one of them is the same as the other. And we're no longer out there actively constructing other than some minor punch out of a clubhouse I think is the only thing that's left. So we are diligently moving forward. We anticipate fulfilling everything and looking forward to being the commercial portion will be working out just as well as the residential portion has. Okay, I hope that's the case. I'll be checking with staff on a regular base to make sure that we own target, okay? I appreciate it and we appreciate it before I forget maybe one of the most important things is We wouldn't have been able to do this without this assistance from Tim Takin body Nicklene and the CRA staff They have been absolutely tremendous both in terms of finding tenants and and coordinating between us and the tenants And it's a very very difficult process and We thank you very much for what you have done as a CRA and it's all a team work. We want to be out of there as much, not out of there permanently, we'll be there as managers but a construction wise we want to finish it as soon as possible as well as everybody else wants. Thank you, sir. All right, thank you. Thank you Paul. Any other questions while he's on the podium? Anything else? All right, with that we thank you for your updates All right, thank you for the opportunity have a great evening good evening and we're moving on to consent agenda Are there any items that my colleagues would like to pull from consent? Any request from anyone if not there's always a motion to Okay, a motion was made by vice chair second from board member Turkin to approve consent agenda all those in favor say aye Aye, I am I oppose motion passed this unanimously that concludes consent agenda the CRA advisory board pending assignments Tim did you have any updates on the pending assignments? I do on August 1st the scary Advisory Board review the cultural district Part of the plan and accordance with the assignments the you all had given them in addition at the last meeting they reviewed the industrial district and they also reviewed the budget or the proposed budget that you will be looking at tonight and had no input or offering of suggestion in regards to it. All right. And at the next meeting, they'll be looking at the downtown district as a part of the Sierra Plan, which will complete all the individual reviews of the Sierra Plan districts. And I think I anticipate that they'll be putting that together as well as some general goals and objectives at the following meeting. Perfect. Anything for Tim? Seeing none, we're going to keep moving forward. We're now under section 14, old business, 14A update on the status of the permit and accordance with the First Amendment to the purchase and development agreement with BB1 development LLC, aka Hyperion Group LLC for the Ocean One project. I see we have Mr. Jordan Thaler this evening. For members? Good evening. Good to see all of you. We're pleased to say that we submitted our Master Building permit a few weeks ago. As of today, we have paid our permit fee. So we are all in track and we're moving forward. All right. That was a very, so to say update, which is always a good thing. Requests comments questions from anyone? And that was elicited the thing that the hold up was just the permit fees. I think and I got I checked with the building department they are anticipating a fire review fee as well So you may want to check with them and review to make sure that they have what's sufficient to start the review process To qualify as a complete application for building department review We do need to check with them because when we first submitted the master building permit that was not one of the items That was due okay, that was then changed a few weeks ago. This is a new item. It's usually not given other, it's an additional $300,000, which we would need to go back and figure out. It also seems like that would be separate from the master building permit. But I will, we will make sure that all of that is- Just verify with them because we need to make sure that the review process is This happening so it was My understanding and of course we will check with the building department that To review the the actual building permit that's not necessary that is a separate track We want to get that going as quickly as possible But as it relates to the master building permit and the building permit itself specifically from the from this first amendment We have made those payments. Well, course, we're going to want to move everything forward, but I will contact them. We have Pacifico on board or Pernex vettors. They know all of those guys very, very well, and we'll make sure that that's taken care of. All right. Last call. Seeing no one else, thank you so much, Mr. Thaler. We're going to keep moving forward with the agenda. 14B, discussion and consideration of circuit transit, ink, contract renewal for on-demand transportation services. Tim, do you want to open up the item? Yes. The, as you're all aware, the, as a part of the agreement, circuit was here last month reporting. They're quarterly on the data. And the item before you tonight is your option to renew for an additional six months for that agreement based upon your consideration of how it's working to date. And that's all you have in front of you for your discussion and consideration. All right, thank you. Does anybody have any questions for Tim before I open up to public comments? Go ahead. I would like to look into the possibility of the city stepping up to make it available to outside the CRR district like to the mall or something like those kind of things and see what would it take to make that happen? Could look into that. We can start. I have a representative, Mr. Bagley here from Circuit. We can start discussions in regards to some areas and have conversations with the city, what that would look like. And we can have those discussions and bring them back to you what that may look like. I just don't know exactly which locations yet, but we do have a good idea based upon the survey that was done in the data that we presented at the last meeting. But Mr. Beggler, if you have any input on that. Good evening, Board. Jason Beggler with Circuit. Sorry sorry I lost my voice but yeah we're happy to dig into any details we'd love to explore expanding open to any areas of the city I know try rails come up some grant opportunities that we're speaking about so open to any and all you know if it's a citywide service we're happy to accomplish any of that but really just need to get the stakeholders together and figure out what that looks like. Good. Anything for Jason? All right, thank you so much. Tim, Jason, thank you. With that, before we go ahead, I'll go ahead, by sharing. Tim, as part of this survey from the initial, I want to say there were six kind of key locations that were proposed. One was the hospital. I was actually speaking to Resonero for the weekend who said, you know, the hospital would be, you know, it's close to the CRA district, it's not super far. So there might be some areas that wouldn't require a huge expansion to add those areas. So maybe we can look at those first that are a little bit closer to what we service now. And then look at, you know, then the next phase maybe going out a little bit further where we're talking about extra mileage and probably extra vehicles and that's everything. So if we rewrote it a pair I didn't. We had the tri-rail, Bethesda Hospital, Boing Beach Mall, Renaissance Commons communities, as well as Forest Hills and Leisureville. I don't necessarily know that that's the order of the request, but certainly we can start looking at the possibility of revising the geofence and looking at the possibility of revising the Geo fence and looking at what that may require as far as additional additional hours to service those areas. Right, yeah, there is also, I guess, we service or we go to the Walmart on Federal Highway. We can also look at expanding our- But then the- but I thought we went that far. No. Just to walk it. We cut it off 23rd, right? Correct. Okay but then I My understanding was there's residents that Can't get picked up from I guess within a certain area They were saying that they live like they would have to walk like across the street or something So you know some areas that we can you know improve some availability along federal highway. Maybe look at Bethesda some things that are kind of close by that would. We could definitely look at even within our existing district that's not already included. All the way up to the inter-cocial park, ourwire, up into that area, as well as down to Walmart all the way down to the southern limit, as well currently, based upon within the Sierra District. And we've already kind of talked a little bit about what that would require within the district, and we could bring that back for your consideration. Yeah, that would be great. Consideration. Kind of give us some hard numbers on what that looks like. And if we need an extra car, don't need an extra car, or what we need to do. I'm to make that happen because I think now we're at a point where we can slowly start kind of expanding this and seeing what works and what doesn't work and where the need is and where it's not. So that's what I would like to see maybe, I don't know, let me, you know, just when you have that information, we can add it to a meeting for discussion. If the board would grant consensus to staff to look forward to that, we could certainly bring that back. I support the request. Yes. All right. So, if there's nothing else for either individual and before we entertain a motion, let's turn to public comments. Is there anyone here that would like to speak specifically on this item, which is on the renewal of the podium is there anybody online? I see nobody online with that public comments is now closed. All right, if you would somebody would like to offer a motion and please read it as written on the text. Motion to approve the six month renewal for the Boyd and Beach community redevelopment agency. Agreement for on-demand transportation services with circuit transit ink and allow the board chair to execute the renewal notice. Second. All right, we have a motion from board member Cruz. We have a second from board member A. All those in favor of the motions say aye. Aye. Anyone opposed? Motion passes unanimously. All right, thank you and congratulations. We're moving on to 14C discussion and consideration of purchase and development agreement with Maple Tree Investments LLC for the USPS project on the CRA own property located at 401-411 East Point Beach Boulevard. And I believe we do we have Mr. Hancock here at all. I know we have Mr. Todd Connelly. Connelly, excuse me. So in the meantime, Tim, you want to introduce it and then we'll go turn to Todd. Absolutely. So as you all are aware, 41411 East Point Beach Boulevard has been earmarked for a new retail operation of the USPS, which is currently located at 217 North Sea crest. At the August meeting, the board approved the reduction in the purchase price with MTI to the amount from 917,000 to 817,000 and directed staff and legal to come back with a purchasing development agreement in accordance with the terms that we had discussed as well as some additional negotiated terms. And as a part of this discussion and for your consideration tonight, we can go ahead and review some of the terms as presented within the purchasing development agreement. And I'll turn to Catherine to review those. Let's do that. Turn. Good evening and board. If you all will look in your packet, if you'd like to follow along I'm just going to be looking at the key term in condition seat. We've put this together. This is just a summary of sort of the, they're all legal terms, but you know, the more substantive terms of the agreement for your easy review and discussion. Of course, I'm happy to talk about anything in the agreement. Running through, as Sim said, the purchase price would be for $817,000. There would be a series of phase deposits. Those deposits remain the property of the CRA except in three circumstances. One would be the CRA's default under the contract. The second would be the failure of the CRA to satisfy a condition precedent to closing, meaning if the CRA was unable to deliver the property, then the deposits would be returned to the purchaser. And the third is if the purchaser is unable to secure USPS lease, that last term is a little bit unusual, but given the mutual intent of the parties that this be a post office, and that has been included for your consideration. The closing requirements again include that executed lease between the purchaser and the post office acquisition of a building permit and again delivery of marketable title. After that, the closing that would be 90 days after the building permit is obtained. Moving through the purchaser would have a feasibility period which is 90 days and they have the right to inquire and investigate the property. This does allow them to do things like take environmental testing, inspect the property during that time if they determine that the property is not something that they would like to purchase. You know, they are able at that point to terminate the contract. A building permit would be within applied for within one year of site plan approval. The site plan is attached that preliminary is a, as an exhibit to the contract, so that we all understand sort of the project that we are attempting to get into here. Taxes are pro-rated, seller to pay closing costs. The project design, again, has been attached for your consideration. This has been, I believe, fairly thoroughly vetted between the purchaser in USPS, but it is here again for everyone's full information. If there's any rezoning required, we do not believe there is at this time, but if there were, that would be the responsibility of the purchaser to undertake. In addition, there are a few portions of the development timeline that are maybe valuable for consideration. The first is that the purchaser is represented that they do have financing available. So the CRA is asking for proof of that financing 30 days prior to closure. Site plan approval would be within one year of the effective date of this agreement. Again, the middle of construction documents one year from site plan approval and then occupancy within 12 months of permitting. So it is looking to be an accelerated project. And this project is based on results in certificate of occupancy, not necessarily document application. Ground breaking ceremony as the CRA, we do typically like to see these and these are typically included as part of your contract. We understand that USPS has particular rules related to ground breaking, so the existence of such a ceremony would be contingent on USPS approval of that. There is a right of first refusal granted to us for five years from the date of occupancy. In that case, if someone came in and offered to purchase the property, we would have the opportunity as the CRA to purchase the property under the same terms and conditions that are being offered to the purchaser. So not at the same purchase price that we're selling, it's whatever they're off on the table would be, but that would come to us first. If the property sells in excess of $3 million within seven years of the effective date, then the CRA would get its money back. And if the purchaser defaults after closing, it fails to develop the property as envisioned. Then the property would be reconvened to the CRA. At the CRA's choice, it could buy it back for the same amount. For 917,000 dollars, which is the appraisal price. So it's just a slight difference there, but it does allow the CRA to get the property back if the CRA so desires. So those are the key terms again, happy to answer any questions that you have. I believe this has been consistent with our discussions and maple tree has been extraordinarily communicative and of course staff has worked very hard to bang out these terms. All right, excellent. Any questions for Catherine and any of these term items All right, seeing none. Let's go to mr. Conley if we could unmute him Hey, can you hear me now? Yes I don't I don't have any comments as to any of these Key terms and conditions only to say that that team and staff Miss Otterback and Mr. Tach had been fantastic. We've worked really well together. All of these things are all these key terms we've cooperated on and and I'm ready to go. So thank you all for the opportunity, I think is all I need to say. Thank you. That's always great to hear. All right, with that, let's turn to public comment. If you'd like to speak specifically on this item with the USPS, now's the time to approach the podium. Seeing no one approaching the podium, is there anyone online? I see no one online with that public comment on this item is now closed. Now I'll entertain a motion to approve or any further discussion. Vice Chair. Tim, do we have an update or a status from that testing that was getting done? That we knew it wouldn't necessarily have any effect. I'm just wondering if we ever got any sort of finality on that. We're getting the reports on it. It's not finally yet. Right now there may be the possibility of natural attenuation with no further treatment required. But certainly within the timelines for development, we don't anticipate this to impact the development of this project. So we're hoping whatever, if there is required treatment that's needed that it'll be done prior to them breaking ground. If I may add on to that just for the board's clarity that is spoken to in the contract as well. The purchaser acknowledges that the wells are there. We have agreed to notify them within two days of receipt of any information so that is spoken to in the contract as well. Very good. Thank you, Catherine. I will make a spoken to in the contract as well. Very good. Thank you, Catherine. I will make a motion to approve the purchase and development. Just one second though. Just one thing that I failed to mention is that we will have to go to the next city commission meeting to dispose of the property below fair market value. Just or your work. All right. Thank you. Vice Chair, if you could complete the motion. Yes, motion to approve the purchase and development agreement with Maple Tree Investments. LLC for the new USPS retail operation located at 401-411E's point Beach Boulevard and allow the board chair to execute the agreement, pending final legal review and city commission approval to dispose of the property below fair market value. All right, second from Board Member Turkin. All right. We have a motion and a second. All those in favor? The motion to approve say aye. Aye. Anyone opposed? Motion passes unanimously. Congratulations. We're moving forward. 14D continued discussion and consideration of search for the new executive director Tim. All right. As the board is aware at the last meeting in August. You directed staff to re-advertise the position as well as research options for executive search firms. The Sierra executive director position is currently advertised on the Sierra website, the city website, FRA and the IEDC. Additionally staff reached out to executive search firms and looked website, the city website, FRA and the IEDC. And additionally staff reached out to executive search firms and looked at opportunities for piggybacking existing agreements as well as participating in purchasing cooperatives. The purchasing cooperatives didn't necessarily meet what we were looking for in the executive director search level. It's positions that would be more readily available on a lower tier. We looked at existing piggyback agreements in which we could hire a procure, a headhunter, if you will. And we didn't have any that were currently available within the county or the state that we could find. But we continue to keep looking. However, we did reach out to four different search firms and we'll be getting proposals back hopefully this week. They seem to be within the 20% of the executive director salary, or at least that's what we have found that the city has done because we've coordinated with HR over the city to see what they have been doing. So we think that will be within our procurement guidelines. We can bring that back to you for your review when we get those proposals in October. The current advertised positions close at the end of the month. So you guys can evaluate on the next meeting what type of resumes and whether you would like to interview any of those positions and you could direct staff if you so choose to proceed with procuring the services of the head. All right. Thank you. Questions for Tim? All right. With that, we'll wait for your update when it's available. Thank you so much.

Now we're going to keep going. And the next item is related. It is very much the same thing. It's the resolution for adopting the CRA budget for fiscal year 2425. We just heard the line item review and any last any more questions from my colleagues before we go to public comment. If you would like to speak specifically for or on this item, resolution R24-02, adopting the CRA budget now would be the time to approach the podium.

Motion to approve. We have a motion from Board Member Turkien. We heard a second from Board Member Hay. All those in favor of the motion to approve resolution R24-02. Say aye. Aye. Anyone opposed? Motion passes unanimously. Okay, 15b. Discussion and consideration of the second amendment to the Boynton Harbor Marina Management Agreement with Waypoint Marine Inc. Tempt you want to start this and then we'll turn to Brian afterwards. Okay. The agreement for management services became effective in October of 2021. It is said to expire at the end of the fiscal year. Prior to the agreement, it may be renewed for two, three a year additional terms at the mutual agreement of both parties, which must be evidence in writing and signed by both parties, 15 days prior to the expiration of the agreement. As you may recall, the first amendment to the agreement was the trial period for the extended hours. And on the August meeting with the CRI Board, you discussed the results of the extended hours and wanted them included. Those are extending the Marina's hours Monday through Thursday from 6 p.m. From May 15th through Labor Day weekend. Sounds right. This will add about an additional 62 hours of operation, which has been included. Waypoint has agreed to the Second Amendment, which is before you tonight, as prepared by C. Aralegal, which extends the you tonight, as prepared by Sierra Leagle, which extends the management services for another three additional years. The second amendment also provides an increase in waypoints annual compensation, which you can scroll down a little bit in the fiscal impact, and you can see how that's outlaid there, along with the extended hours of the 2025 season. So, Brian's here to answer any questions that you may have, and it's for your discussion and consideration. All right, thank you, Tim. We'll turn now to you, Brian. Yeah, I would just like to say that I'm happy to hopefully go another three years as per the contract I've already executed. And so, I appreciate the Board's consideration. All right, any questions or comments for Brian or Tim? A motion to approve. Welcome. Wait, we do need public comment. Yes. All right, but nothing else. All right, let's turn now to public comment on this item. If you'd like to speak specifically on the second amendment to the Boynton Harbor Marine Management Agreement with Waitpoint Marine, now is a time to approach the podium. Seeing no one approaching the podium, let's turn online. There's nobody online with that public comment on this item is now closed. We have a motion to approve from Board Member Turkin. Was there a second to this? Yes. That was Board Member Hay, any final discussions with not? All right, all those in favor of the motion to approve say aye. Aye. Anyone opposed? with not all right all those in favor of the motion to approve say aye Aye And when opposed motion passed this unanimously congratulations Thank you very much to the board and to staff and legal I look forward to another three years of Successful marine management. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you Moving on to 15c discussion and consideration of performance measures and standards per floor to status 1 8 9.0 6 9 4 Tim and then I assume council. Yeah, either one. All right, so effective July 1st, 2024, there's a new statute that requires special districts, which we are one of. To establish goals and objectives for its programs and activities as well as performance measures along the standards determined if those goals and objectives have been achieved. The goals, objectives and performance measures and standards have been must be uploaded to our website and established by October 1st, so by the end of the fiscal year. And or the first full fiscal year at the district's creation. Staff has put together that as an attachment for your review. We were looking at basically five categories, communication and engagement, business development, financial transparency and accountability, marine operations and land acquisition. These goals and objectives are, as you can see, have been included due to limited guidance on the content or structure. We really don't have any type of guidance on how to do these. Staff recommends adopting these goals as presented. If additional guidance is provided throughout the year, we'll have the opportunity to amend them in any direction that you may have in regards to those as well. All right, questions, comments, contributions, any suggestions from modifications, anything like that? Vice Chair. Thank you, Chair. No, I just was going to turn to Catherine and Asgard to kind of explain why we're in this situation. If you could just explain how the law has changed just for the record and for clarity sake, please. Certainly, so this new law was put in place as Tim alluded to. It is an attempt to be a transparency measure for special districts, although you are framed as a community redevelopment agency and thus have your own statutory chapter. You are still to subject to there are a number of general special district provisions that still apply to you, including this one. I will say that as part of this effort, we did look around the state to see how other special districts were responding. And so the model before you is consistent with what other special districts around the state are doing. Again, there's very little guidance on this. And so we are all trying this out together. And so as more guidance comes out, this may be refined. We may look at this at some point in the year and determine that it needs to be updated, but for the moment, we do believe this will be compliant with the statute. This is an entirely new effort. And as the law develops on this front, we will certainly keep you abreast. Great, thank you so much. Yeah, I just, I think this is great and I think, you know, why recreate the wheel if somebody else is using something and we'll see if it works and if it doesn't, then we'll regroup. So thank you. Anything else? All right, let's start the public comment on this item. If you would like to speak on the goals, objectives and performance measures for our special district, now is a time to approach the podium. So you know when approaching the podium is there anybody online and there is no one online without public comment is now closed. Now I'll entertain a motion to approve our goals, objectives and performance. So we have a motion from board member, a turcan and a second from board member, hey, all those in favor of the motion to approve say aye. Aye. Aye. And I can my no pose motion passes unanimously. Okay. That brings us to 16C, the MLK, Jr. Boulevard corridor, mixed use project update. Tim, take it away. Right, in light of what we've already discussed, pretty much have covered the content of this agenda item. I just wanna re-adify that we're looking at the possibility of a ribbon cutting in the short term. So we'll be coordinating with Centennial on when that will be and we'll notify you. What would a short term mean the next month before the year? We're hoping within September, but we'll see. It may be more like October. Yeah. Based upon it being in the 10th year, we may be looking at October. But we'll coordinate with you and let you know Anything else from my colleague motion to adjourn all right All right, we have a motion is there a second second we have a second all those in favor do adjourn say aye Yes one minute before seven have a good night everybody.
