She briefly described the project location and reviewed the income ranges for the units. She continued by displaying renderings and reviewed the terms that were negotiated. She noted the layout includes a pocket park, wh ich has now been relocated to the NE corner of the proj ect. She asked the Board whether they liked the location or would like to see an alternative design . She added that the terms require the park to be open to the public. She noted Andrew Maxey and Eliot Goldstein from Pu lte were available by phone . She continued by reviewing additiona l Purchase and Development Agreement terms. She highlighted the general project timeline , and noted Pulte feel confident then could complete within two years . Mayor Penserga stated he looked forward to partnering with Pulte. He noted the housing would be truly affordable. He asked for clarification on the HOA structure and estimated fees. Mr. Goldstein said the HOA would be as low as possib le but there were no final figures. He stated they would share documents during the final site plan approval process. He estimated approximately $200 a month but they hope for much less. He stated the HOA would be tiered with an amount for the single-family home and an amount for the town homes. Board Member Hay asked if the HOA fee would be separate or part of the mortgage. Mr. Goldstein said typically the HOA fee was separate from the mortgage. Board Member Hay inqui red if the CRA Board would have an opportunity to review the HOA fee structure prior to final approval. Mr. Goldstein said they would be happy to share the document and solicit feedback from the Board. Board Member Hay asked about fees for HOA violations. Mr. Maxey replied once they sell the last unit, they would turn over the HOA to the community and resident control. He reiterated their goal of a low HOA fee . Board Member Turkin asked if the Delray Beach project is similarly structured with an HOA. Mr. Maxey said no since there was no common area in the Delray Beach project. Board Member Turkin supported keeping costs as low as possible and asked if Pulte could play a role in developing a contract with the HOA to limit costs for a time period. Mr. Maxey said they would make sure the operating budget was in good shape when they turn it over. Board Member Kelley said the HOA in this neighborhood makes her uneasy.

Mr. Maxey further spoke about private road repairs , privately maintained drainage connections to Seacrest Boulevard , and insurance . Chair Penserga opened a discussion about the location of the pocket park. He asked if they move the park internally would the project receive additiona l units. Mr. Goldstein said if they moved the park internally, the dry detention area would need to be moved to the current pocket park area. Mr. Maxey stated they may gain one (1) additional unit. Mr. Goldstein said they are open to other ideas , and he noted Pulte's preference would be to remove the pocket park and offer additional units. Chair Penserga was not in favor of removing the park. Board Member Kelley stated she is fine with the park remaining but expressed concern that it adds to the HOA fees. She preferred the park was moved centrally within the project and not by the edge by the road. Board Member Turkin said amenities are important and spoke about adequate fencing and landscaping to mask the fence. Vice Chair Cruz spoke about affordability and AM I and the public park. She asked Ms. Shutt about the decision from the previous Board about the park. Ms. Shutt confirmed the prior Board wanted the park to be accessible to the public, so Pulte honored that in the current design. She noted if access was restricted then it would not be maintained by the City. Vice Chair Cruz said it was not fair for private owners to pay for a public park. She asked Pulte why the park was moved to the current location and recommended the location move south closer to 4th Avenue. Board Member Hay recommended utilizing the funding for the park and redistribute it to the open space. He suggested landscaping , wa lkways, and grills. He does not want to burden the residents . He prefers removing the park, adding more units, and enhancing the central open space. Mr. Goldstein summarized what he heard from the Board, including removing the park, increase housing, and enhancing features of the open space. Vice Chair Cruz asked about the dry retention area. Mr. Goldstein said it would be landscaped but would not look like a lake . Ms. Shutt said it would be s loped and seeded and are like a swale but larger. She added small portions of the area could be carved out for walkways or benches. Mr. Goldstein said they are open to foregoing the park or reducing the park size based on the entitlement process. He stated Pulte would add features to make the community feel special. He confirmed the HOA fee would be reduced and offset by the one (1) additional unit. 5 139 Meeting Minutes CRA Board Meeting Boynton Beach, FL January 10 , 2023 Vice Chair C ruz asked if it was possible to create a lake . Mr. Goldstein said if it was possible based on setbacks and entitlements , they are open to the idea. Mr. Maxey added they would know more once they get into the entitlement and perm itting process. T imothy T ack , Assistant Dire ctor, asked if they wou ld enterta i n an ex-fil tration trench to offset the dry retention a re a . Mr. Goldstein said they would not be open to ex-filtration because it would be difficult for the HOA to maintain it. He acknowledged they wou ld be open to alternative ways to handle the pre-treatment. Vice Chair Cruz requested to go to 40-60% of AMI or to increase uni ts in that tier in lieu of the park. Mr. Goldstein said no and explained their goa l is t o stay w ithin the Cou nty guidelines. Board Member Turkin said the lake was a good idea , the park was important, and supports a walkway around the dry retention area but mentioned the c h allenge of privacy. He asked how many units they wou ld gain by removing the park. Mr. Goldstein said one (1) unit. Board Member Ke ll ey said s he was not a fan of the pa rk but liked the pathway idea around the dry retention area . She does not love the idea of a lake and exp ressed concern about drowning . Chair Penserga asked each Board Member to indicate whet her they would like the park or to add an additional unit and some additional amenities to the open area . Board Member Hay said he was in favor of remov ing the park and add i ng more units. He did not support a lake. Vice Chair C ru z stated she was in favor of removing the park but recommended c reating two townhomes instead of a one sing l e-family home . Mr. Goldstein stated th ey would do their best to maximize t he units. Board Member Turki n supported e lim inating the park and recommended keeping HOA costs down with a minimal approach to the other features in the open area. Board Member Kelley stated she agreed with removing the park. She asked Pulte to look outside of the box to add additional town homes that qualify under the lower AMI. Consensus was reached to remove the park, maximize the number of units, and wo r k with staff to develop the features for the open space . Attorney Rossmell stated t hat recommendation may affect two other conditions of t he agreement. It affected the condition of the 52 % limit on the total number of town home units. Vice Chair Cruz cla rified that she meant MFI when she was in dicating AM I and again asked if Pulte would consider 40-60% MFI. Ms . Shutt c larified the MF I chart. 6 140 Meeting Minutes CRA Board Meeting Boynton Beach, FL January 10 , 2023 Board Member Turkin said the Board previously discussed more single-family homes and less town homes . Mr. Goldstein said they support increasing the number of town home units on the east section. He said they were flexible on many things , but they would need to stay within the workforce housing categories outlined on the chart. Board Member Kelley said she would like to see new options and asked how to change that in the agreement. Ms . Shutt said the percentage would probably remain approximately the same with the new options discussed. Vice Chair Cruz recommended seeing the new options from Pulte and then they could decide to amend the agreement. Mr. Goldstein asked if the request to bring back visuals of new options would push out the signing of the purchase and sale agreement. Chair Penserga recommended flexibility in language concerning the 52%. Board Member Hay reminded the Board they originally wanted detached single-family units but noted Pulte did a nice job with the design . He supported moving forward . Attorney Rossmell noted another condition about the interior and perimeter streetscaping . She recommended adding flexibility to that condition as well. Consensus was reached to bump up the percentage of units by a point or two and adjust the interior and perimeter streetscaping , as needed. Consensus was also reached to authorize the Chair to work with Legal to finalize the project. Chair Penserga asked about the resident selection process. Mr. Goldstein referenced Section K of the agreement. He stated it was a lottery process and outlined the timeline for the County process. He noted they would develop an educational program and a website and described how residents would get approved. He said Pulte would manage the sales process and described how the lottery process worked on a Delray Beach project. He stated they would do two lotteries , first for 20 units and the second lottery for the remaining units. He noted eligible residents are not required to be in attendance . Board Member Kelley asked if they would do a similar website to their Delray Beach Carver Square website. Mr. Goldstein replied yes. Discussion continued about the application process and lottery. Vice Chair Cruz asked if any homes could be preferential for Boynton Beach residents. Mr. Goldstein said no because there are Fair Housing rules. Vice Chair Cruz recommended marketing it to Boynton Beach residents first and limited the application period. Mr. Goldstein responded that the marketing to lottery would be approximately a 2-3-month period . Ms. Shutt asked how many applications they received for the Delray Beach project. Mr. 7 141 Meeting Minutes CRA Board Meeting Boynton Beach , FL Go ldstein said 80-100 e ligib le residents were in that lottery for 20 units. January 10 , 2023 Board Member Hay asked about impact windows and shutters all the way around . Mr. Goldstein said they wou ld commit to impact windows. Board Member Hay asked who oversees the HOA. Mr. Goldstein said they would be governed by their by-laws. Discussion ensued about HOAs. Board Member Hay asked if t he electrical wires would be buried . Mr. Goldstein replied yes. Public Comments: Chair Penserga opened Pub lic Comments. Ernest Mig noli , 710 NE 7th Street, stated he attended every meeting about the project and said he is concerned that the Board does not understand HOAs and Fair Housing laws. He noted the project is comprised on c ity, county, and state laws . He said the neighbors did not object because they were promised a public park and now that has been eliminated. He stated the Police would have access to the public road within t he project. He noted HOAs and crime are both frightening . Chair Penserga closed the Public Comments. Attorney Rossmell noted s he wou ld read into the record any changes that deviate from the paper that was supplied tonight. If the changes are not accepted , the agreement would come back before the Board. Chair Penserga asked for final comments and questions. Vice Chair Cruz asked about 23.29 (c) Reverter C lause and Repurchase. She recommended a language edit to protect the CRA in the event of potential default after construction begins. Mr. Goldstein said Pulte would agree to capp ing the raw land value would be capped at what they paid plus the verifies land development costs. Board Member Hay asked about the one-year warranty and Pulte 's responsibility. Mr. Goldstein confirmed the one-year warranty. Board Member Turkin and Vice Chair Cruz thanked Pu lte . Chair Penserga emphasized the CRA was getting $2 .5 million from this project. Motion Vice Chair Cruz moved to approve the purchase and development agreement as presented subject to the following changes: elimination of the requirement that a pocket park be included as that requirement may exi st throughout the agreement; enhancement of the dry detention area; the HOA documents will be provided to the CRA for informational purposes and 8 142 Meeting Minutes CRA Board Meeting Boynton Beach, FL January 10 , 2023 comment prior to site plan approval; increase , if possible, the number of townhomes based on the space made available as the result of the park removal; adjustments to the percentage of the townhomes, if necessary; adjustments to the streetscape requirements limited it to single-family if necessary; impact windows on every unit throughout the development; in the event of a conflict and the LOI and agreement as negotiated then the contract will prevail; under the reverter clause, as pertaining to subsection C, prior to completion of the last dwelling unit, the price will be the lesser of the raw land value, as calculated as of the date of the agreement, the proportionate share of that lot, plus verifiable land development costs , or, on the other hand, the appraised value of the land as if exists as of that date ; and subject to final legal review. Furthermore, the motion would further authorize the Board Chair to execute the agreement upon inclusion of these changes . Board Member Hay seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously. 13. New Business A . Discussion and Consideration of a Tax Deed Sale for the Property Located at 543 NW 11th Avenue Ms . Shutt introduced the item and asked the Board to determine a maximum price for bidding . She said staff recommended a limit of $80,000. She confirmed there are some liens and state taxes associated with the property. Theresa Utterback, Development Services Manager, said their research revealed code liens and the City has it designed for demolition . She noted the code liens would be reduced to Admin Fees. Attorney Rossmell said there were some state tax liens that would not be wiped out by the sale, and it would include interest. Board Member Hay expressed concern about not knowing the additional costs. Attorney Rossmell said they may know the costs at the time of the title search , but she would have to follow up. Ms . Shutt said they would rather participate in the bid and have a cap on it. Ms. Utterback said they need to provide money to the Tax Appraiser's Office three days prior to the auction. She added the tax deed goes to auction January 18, 2023. Chair Penserga said it was not comfortable acquiring the property at this time. Board Member Kelley asked if there was any protection or could they cancel the sale without much penalty. Ms . Shutt said they would not have enough time to gather additional information after the winning bid. Attorney Rossmell confirmed full payment is due the next day. Discussion ensued about the liens and potential costs . Board Member Kelley stated there are too many unknowns. Board Member Hay said there was too much of a risk and does not support the item. 9 143 144 145 146 147 148 149 150 151 152 153 154 155 156 157 158 159 160 161 162 163 164 165 166 167 168 From:Andrew Maxey To:Shutt, Thuy Cc:Tack, Timothy; Utterback, Theresa; Nicklien, Bonnie; Curfman, Vicki; Hill, Vicki Subject:RE: Pulte LOI- Cottage District Date:Thursday, June 2, 2022 8:58:00 AM Attachments:image011.png image012.png image013.png image014.png image015.png image016.png Pulte LOI - Cottage District BBCRA_v2.pdf Good Morning Thuy, Although it’s not specifically referenced in the LOI, I also want to reaffirm Pulte’s commitment to working with as many local vendors and contractors as possible on this project.

Our proposal is uniquely designed to complement and add value to the existing neighborhood and its residents as well as further the goals and principles contained within the 2016 Boynton Beach CRA Redevelopment Plan (“BBCRA Plan”). Among the goals that the Pulte proposal furthers from the plan are: ■Protect and enhance existing single-family neighborhoods ■Create a comfortable, walkable and safe pedestrian-scale environment connecting residents and visitors to the commercial, social/cultural and recreational amenities within each District ■Develop policies and strategies for providing adequate public parking within each District to support commercial and residential redevelopment ■Encourage and assist existing development and redevelopment projects that provide employment and economic opportunities ■Encourage the implementation of streetscape enhancements within the Districts ■Encourage the development of new affordable housing (with no subsidies from the CRA or any other public funding/tax source) Pulte’s plan consists of 9 single family detached and 31 single family attached (townhome) units for a total of 40 new single family units within the Heart of Boynton. Drawing from the architectural styles of the surrounding neighborhood and the BBCRA, we are proposing two styles – Florida Mediterranean and Florida Coastal. Both styles complement the existing homes, reflect the historic character of the proposed Shepard Funk Addition Historic Cottage District along NE 3rd Avenue and Boynton’s coastal history. Our plan provides new homeownership opportunities and has been carefully designed to enhance and protect the surrounding neighborhood. We’ve included a small neighborhood park along NE 1st Street with landscape, hardscape, shade structure and lighting features, as well as a dual use passive recreation/dry detention area, a network of sidewalks and pathways around and throughout the site which connect to the existing neighborhood and provide access for the community at- large. While the small park will be deeded to the City of Boynton Beach to ensure perpetual community access, the Pulte HOA may retain responsibility for park maintenance. We’ve also included additional parking, both on- street parking on NE 1st Street (six spaces in the right-of-way), as well as off-street – six at the townhomes and nine at the new park. The on-street parking, along with new decorative streetlights and the perimeter sidewalks provide traffic calming and a pedestrian environment to the site. The BBCRA Plan identifies the vision for the Heart of Boynton District as “becoming a model neighborhood, with its unique character and history preserved. The vision includes enriching the original vernacular architecture of the neighborhood, investing in housing and commercial uses, and connecting both through the pedestrian and vehicular networks.” The vision further addressed via three recommendations: Streetscape, Land Use, and Urban Design. Pulte’s plan responds to and enhances the each of the BBCRA recommendations for the Heart of Boynton District as explained below. F. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED PROJECT Proposed Project Plan | 4 190 Boynton Beach CRA | Cottage District Infill Housing Redevelopment Project | 38 Proposed Project Plan | 4 Streetscape The BBCRA Plan outlines a variety of streetscape enhancements for Seacrest Boulevard including “bus shelters and the creation of a Pedestrian Zone adjacent to rights-of-way that inviting, safe and includes a minimum 8’ wide clear sidewalk, decorative light poles are both vehicular and pedestrian scales, and installation of canopy trees that provide immediate sharing at time of construction”. Pulte’s plan includes a 5’ sidewalk, retaining the existing decorative streetlights and installing larger canopy trees along the portion of the site adjacent to Seacrest Boulevard. We are also continuing the pedestrian enhancements through an interconnecting network of sidewalks and pathways throughout the site. Decorative streetlights will be provided along the perimeter and interior of the site. Off-street parking is provided long NE 1st Street, which provides for traffic calming as recommended by the BBCRA and the community. Additional off-street parking is provided adjacent to the pocket park and within the site itself. Lastly, we have incorporated a bus shelter for school children in the pocket park along NE 1st Street. We will work with the CRA and the Palm Beach County School District to ensure the bus shelter meets their standards and is utilized as a neighborhood school bus stop. Land Use The existing future land designation for the site is Medium Density Residential and the BBCRA Plan notes that High Density Residential would also be appropriate. Pulte’s plan maintains the existing Medium Density Residential as a means of protecting the surrounding neighborhood. We have done so because while we understand the surrounding community desires new housing opportunities, they want the new opportunities to be consistent with and integrated into the existing fabric. We have opted to propose fee simple single-family opportunities instead of rental opportunities. The current zoning designation is R-2, One and Two-Family, which allows for the proposed density, however we will rezone to PUD. Urban Design The BBCRA Plan identifies three architectural styles in the Heart of Boynton District. The three architectural styles are Mission, Frame Vernacular and Mediterranean. The BBCRA Plan recommends “that when building in this District, new development shall utilize one of these styles”. The BBCRA Plan also notes that the Cottage District should be developed with single-family for- sale homes in the style of the surrounding historic cottages. The surrounding cottages are primarily frame vernacular. Pulte’s plan proposes two architectural styles in keeping with the recommendations of the BBCRA Plan. We are proposing the Florida Mediterranean which is consistent with the BBCRA Plan’s Mediterranean Revival 191 Boynton Beach CRA | Cottage District Infill Housing Redevelopment Project | 39 Proposed Project Plan | 4 style and includes one and two-story structures, stucco finishes, gable and hip roofs with shingle tiles, window and door surrounds, decorative horizontal banding and graceful arches. Select plans also include columns and corbels. We are also proposing a Frame Vernacular style – Florida Coastal – which draws from Boynton Beach’s coastal identity and is consistent with the styles identified by the BBCRA. This style features stucco finishes, board and batten detailing, gable and hip roofs with shingles, rafters and decorative banding. In order to provide further consistency within Pulte’s plan, the single-family units will be offered in both architectural styles while the townhomes will be in the Florida Mediterranean. The architectural styles are also in keeping with the design guidelines contained in the City’s Land Development Regulations. Further, the RFP provides a variety of sample elevations including Mediterranean, Coastal, Craftsman and Caribbean. Both of our architectural styles, Florida Mediterranean and Florida Coastal, are consistent with the sample elevations contained in the RFP. The 2009 The Downtown Vision and Master Plan (“2009 DMP”) notes that while the area does not have a “signature look or style, the creation of a City’s identity … establishing urban design guidelines that will promote the vernacular architecture”. The 2009 DMP points to architectural structures that can be used as a “basis for future design guidelines” such as the Women’s Club and Old School House. The 2009 DMP further notes that the neighborhoods are predominantly a continuous network of streets in a grid pattern. The 2009 DMP also notes that land uses and densities should “ensure a logical and clear transition linking the downtown core to surrounding areas”. Pulte’s plan has taken each of the above recommendations into consideration. Specifically, our architectural style mirrors the Mediterranean Revival of the Women’s Club and the Old School House. We retain and complement the existing grid pattern of the neighborhood and our proposed density of 9.2 units per acre serves as a clear transition between the 2009 DMP and BBCRA Plan recommendations for higher densities in the urban core and the surrounding area as well as a transition to the higher densities proposed for the MLK District. The RFP provides Urban Neighborhood Site Plan Concepts including site planning elements for lots, special condition lots and garage design and sitting. Pulte’s plan meets the site planning concepts including an urban streetscape with consistent and minimum setbacks and shade trees and other landscaping to define the front yards and street edges and provide for traffic calming. Along the perimeter of the site, each home is sited towards and relates to the street. This pattern continues with the three interior townhome buildings which relate to the interior access drive. The sidewalks and driveways are of the same consistent material, AC units are screened, and garages are set back from the front of the homes on two of the three single family detached plans. Care has been taken to ensure the homes surrounding the pocket park respond to both the park and the street. With respect to garage siting, the driveways are limited to 9’ in width, whenever possible, and the garage is secondary due to being recessed, whenever possible. Description of Housing Units and Housing Types Proposed In an effort to better serve the needs of the surrounding community and residents, Pulte is proposing a mix of housing types including both single family detached and single family attached (townhome); a total of 9 single family and 31 townhome units are proposed across a total of five plans. Specifically, we are proposing three single family detached plans: the Brookwood, the Cedar, and the Highgate as well as two single family attached plans: the Navarre and the Grayton. The single family detached homes are one-story, 3 or 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, and 2 car garages. The single family attached (townhomes) are two story buildings (4, 5, and 7 unit configurations), 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and 1 or 2 car 192 Boynton Beach CRA | Cottage District Infill Housing Redevelopment Project | 40 Proposed Project Plan | 4 garages. The mean roof height of the single family detached homes is 13’9”. The mean roof height of the single family attached homes (townhome) is 25’3” and second floor wall planes are recessed. Additionally, the front facades are articulated to ensure the massing is consistent with the existing homes. The living area of the single family homes range from 1,447 to 1,850 square feet; while the living area of the townhomes are 1,636 square feet. Pulte’s floorplans are consumer driven and the result of extensive consumer research and feedback to create the best in livability. Our plans have flexible, updated floorplans to make the buyers life easier and more enjoyable. The chart below details the total square footage, living area square footage (under air), number of bedrooms, number of bathrooms and garage for each plan as well as the proposed number of each plan. All plans include our signature Build Quality Experience which includes communication with the buyer every step of the way. Pulte Construction Standards meet or exceed those of the industry. We include many energy-efficient and smart home features that help reduce the home’s energy consumption such as radiant barrier roof decking to reduce heat absorption and improve HVAC efficiency, high-efficiency HVAC systems, programmable thermostats, energy-star qualified appliances, low-emissivity windows and compact fluorescent and LED lighting. Pulte homes are built with sustainability in mind. We partner with industry leaders who strive for the same excellence as we do including Lenox, Moen, Mohawk, Shaw, Sherwin-Williams and Whirlpool.

Federal Highway Mixed-Use Project (aka The Pierce) SUMMARY: On June 7, 2022, the CRA Board approved a Purchase and Development Agreement (PDA), the Tax Increment Revenue Funding Agreement (TIRFA), and the Parking Lease Agreement with BB QOZ, LLC (aka Affiliated Development, LLC) for the 115 N. Federal Highway Mixed Use Project (aka The Pierce, see Attachments I-III). Paragraph 21.9 of the PDA requires a written report every three months by BB QOZ, LLC. BB QOZ, LLC's attendance is not required to present the report to the Board unless requested by the Board. Additionally, Paragraph 3.2.4 of the TIRFA requires an update of the project's financing. The project's quarterly report was due on December 5, 2023 (see Attachment IV). The report indicated that the project received site plan approval from the City's Planning & Development Board on February 6, 2023, received City Commission site plan approval on February 21, 2023, for the first hearing, and final approval with conditions on March 9, 2023. BB QOZ, LLC indicated in their report that they were working on documents in preparation for building permit application, but had to stop due to the pending litigation challenging the abandonments (which include a portion of the north alley, the entire south alley, and NE 1st Ave, see Attachments V-VI). The First Amendment to the Purchase and Development Agreement was approved by the Board at their September 12, 2023 meeting, which set new deadlines for outcomes of the litigation (see Attachment VII).

Petitioner is 209 N. Federal, LLC and is referred herein as “2 09.” Respondent is the City of Boynton Beach and will be referred throughout the Pet ition as the “City.” Citations to the Appendix to Petition for Writ of Certiorari , filed contemporaneously with this Petition are abbreviated as “A:” NOT A CERTIFIED COPY399 53911086v8 I. INTRODUCTION1 209 owns the real property located at 209 North Federal Hi ghway in the City of Boynton Beach (the “209 Property”) and currently leases it to The Boardwalk Italian Ice and Creamery, LLC. The Pierce, a multimillion-do llar development project comprised of several different parcels in downtown Boynton Beach, has received a blanket City staff recommendation of approval for 3 applications of abandonment of roads located near the parcels. 209 is near or adjacent to each of the roads to be abandoned. Abandonment of roads is governed b y Section Boynton Beach, Part III Land Development Regulations (“LDR”), Chapter 2, Article II, Planning and Zoning Division Services, Section 2.G.3. 1 On March 15, 2023, Petitioner sent correspondence to the City seeking the record related to this Application. Despite Petitioner c ontinually following up, Petitioner received links to those records just three hours before the close of the business day on the date of filing the Petition. (A:1 712; A:1713-16). The City’s delay in meeting its obligations to make the records avail able to Petitioner is wholly unjustifiable. See Promenade D’Iberville, LLC v. Sundy, 145 So. 3d 980, 983 (Fla. 1st DCA 2014); see id . (“Florida law doesn’t allow public records custodians to play favorites on the basis of who is requ esting records”; awarding fees and costs for unlawful refusal to provide public recor ds). Indeed, the gamesmanship engaged by the City is unacceptable and runs afoul of Petitioner’s due process and the traditional notion of fair play. See A:1679-80 (commissioner accusing Petitioner of unspecified, nefarious conduct and remarki ng he does not appreciate Petitioner’s opposition to the road abandonment s). In any event, while Petitioner does have some materials, and those are cited here, it was lacking a complete record until the City belatedly produced it. Pet itioner will amend its Petition and contemporaneously filed appendix as soon as it has a meaningful opportunity to review the materials sent by the City. NOT A CERTIFIED COPY400 2 53911086v8 Road abandonment was not part of The Pierce’s original plans submitted to the City. 209 opposed the road abandonment applicatio ns immediately at each stage of approval, pointing out that any approval would sev erely and detrimentally affect access to the 209 Property. The LDRs require the City to c onsider and determine whether abandonment would result in “a permanent stoppage, int erruption, or an unacceptable level of service for the subject lot or on neighbo ring lots, subdivisions, or developments with respect to police, fire, or other emerg ency services; or solid waste removal.” (LDR, Section 2.G.3.a.). Specifically, the City’s approval of any road abandonment must consider if such approval would restri ct emergency vehicle access to the 209 Property should an emergency arise and there mus t be competent substantial evidence presented to support an express fact ual finding on this necessary factor. The evidence presented during the quasi-judicial he arings on the proposed ordinance approving the abandonment applications provided no such competent substantial evidence to support the approval of any aban donment. Despite this, the City nevertheless passed an ordinance approving the appl ications for road abandonment. In the absence of such evidence, the ordinance simply cannot stand. II. STATEMENT OF THE CASE AND FACTS The Pierce is a $73 million mixed-use development project designed to include a complex of apartments, restaurants, and retail sto res in downtown Boynton Beach. (A:523, 525, 621-23, 1611). The Project is comprised of several different NOT A CERTIFIED COPY401 3 53911086v8 parcels of real property located from East Boynton Beach Bl vd to East Ocean Ave. along Federal Highway. (A:891; see A:525). BB QOZ, LLC (“Applicant”) is the applicant behind the Pierce and the abandonment at issue. (A:715). The record demonstrates that t he City viewed the Pierce as a development project “especially needed.” (A:524-2 5). The Applicant ultimately received City approval to proceed with the Pro ject with little, if any, real opposition from the City Commission. (A:1158). The original plans for the Project did not contemplate any road abandonment for any of the aforeme ntioned parcels. (A:1628-29). Site plans instead depict a bridge over NE 1st A venue. (Id.). In 2022, the Applicant applied for 3 road abandonments i n the immediate vicinity of the 209 Property. (A:1607-10). The road abando nments sought the vacation of a portion of an alleyway (the “North Alley”), a portion of NE 1st Avenue (“right-of-way”), and the full length of another alleyway (the “South Alley”) (together with the North Alley, the “alleys”). (E.g., A:1398). The North Alley forms the north boundary of the 209 Pro perty. Northeast 1st Avenue forms the southern boundary of the 209 Property an d contains the main driveway into the 209 Property. The abandonment area turns both of these into dead ends terminating at the west edge of the 209 Property and open only to Federal Highway southbound, such that drivers exiting the 209 Prop erty will no longer be NOT A CERTIFIED COPY402 4 53911086v8 able to turn west onto Northeast 1st Avenue or the North Alley, and there will be no eastbound traffic at all. The impacted areas are illust rated below: NOT A CERTIFIED COPY403 5 53911086v8 (E.g., A:705). An application for vacation and abandonment approval requi res review and approval by the City Commission. LDR 2.G.4. To justify t he issuance of an ordinance vacating a road, an application must meet criter ia set forth in LDR 2.G.3(a)-(d), which address issues regarding access, utiliti es, drainage and wastewater management, and conservation. To justify its A pplication, the Applicant simply asserted, in summary fashion, that abandonment met the review criteria set forth in Section 2.G.3 of the LDR. (A:715-18; A:1670-73). N o evidence or substantive analysis was offered. The City readily accepted the Applicant’s conclusory reci tation of the four criteria as satisfaction of the criteria without conductin g its own independent analysis or determining if there was evidentiary for each of the factors. Specifically, in January 2023, City staff supposedly reviewed the App lication and determined that granting it “would not adversely impact traffic,” other City functions, or adjacent property owners. (A:704). City staff determined further that th e right-of-way and alleys “no longer serve a public purpose other than retent ion of necessary utility assessments” and, therefore, recommended approval of the Applic ation. (Id.). While it is clear from the Staff Report the City consulted with publ ic utility companies and city departments addressing engineering, public works/u tilities, and planning and zoning, there is no indication local government departments , such as police and fire, NOT A CERTIFIED COPY404 6 53911086v8 assessed or otherwise opined on any implications arising fr om road abandonments to 209 or any of the adjacent properties. The City Staff Report is devoid of any evidence addressing whether or not the abandonment would c ause or result in a permanent stoppage, interruption, or an unacceptable level o f service with respect to police, fire, or other emergency services. (A:615-804). Upon learning about the Application, 209 immediately lodged its opposition and requested a denial of the Application. (A:891-93). As Pe titioner explained to the City, the Application fails to satisfy one of the four crit eria, namely, access. The LDR raises these questions when assessing the access factor: Does the subject land provide a legal means of access to a l ot of record, subdivision, or development? Would the vacation and aband onment cause or result in a permanent stoppage, interruption, or an unacceptable level of service for the subject lot or on neighboring lots, subdivisions, or developments with respect to police, fire , or other emergency services; or solid waste removal? LDR 2.G.3.a.; A:891-93. In a letter dated February 21, 2023, ahead of the hearing, 209 pointed out that granting the Application would not only increase traffic but also impair ingress and egress to the 209 Property, thereby creating public safety issues and grossly limiting the accessibility to the property b y customers as well as first responders should emergency services be required. (A:891-9 3). This is illustrated simply by looking at the aerial ph otograph. Federal Highway at Northeast 1st Avenue has no median cut or tra ffic signal. Currently, NOT A CERTIFIED COPY405 7 53911086v8 northbound drivers on Federal Highway can easily access t he 209 Property by turning left (west) at the signal at East Ocean Avenue a nd going one block to Northeast 4th Street and turning right, then east on Northeast 1st Avenue to the 209 Property. Similarly, leaving the 209 Property to drive north o n Federal Highway simply requires turning right onto Northeast 1st Avenu e, heading west, going north on Northeast 4th Street to East Boynton Beach Boulevard, going east, then turning left (north) at the signal for Federal Highway. After the abandonment, this traffic pattern will be complet ely disrupted. Northbound drivers on Federal Highway seeking to enter the 209 Property will be forced to make a U turn at East Boynton Beach Boulevard, then turn into what would be a dead-end street. Similarly, drivers leavin g the 209 Property to go north will be forced to make a U turn at East Ocean Aven ue Federal Highway is only two lanes wide at these points, so clearance for this dangerou s maneuver would be difficult, especially for larger vehicles or elderly driver s. The potential for traffic conflict and accidents is significantly heightened, and eas e of access to the 209 Property is greatly diminished. (A:1630-36, 1685-88). The first of two quasi-judicial hearings on the proposed ord inance granting the Application was held February 21, 2023. At the hearin g, the City read the proposed ordinance. (A:1154-55). The Applicant recognized its obligation “to obtain the written consent of the nearby property owner” impacted by road abandonments NOT A CERTIFIED COPY406 8 53911086v8 (A:1178), but nevertheless advocated against the necessity of that obligation and for road abandonment because “certain right of ways . . . are certainly underutilized.” (A:1165-66). The City staff, in response, pointed out that it “typically ask[s] for consent of the neighboring parcels,” though it felt “comfo rtable” requiring the Applicant merely to “work with the neighbors” on any abando nment issues. (A:1180-81). At least two members of the public and one City commissi oner expressed concern over abandonment, including the potential impairmen t of the provision of critical City services such as trash collection. (E.g., A:1193; A:1154-84). For its part, 209 pointed out that the Applicant had not directly re ached out to it to address the Project or the abandonments. (A:1204-05). In the little time it had to present its concerns at the hearing, 209 pointed out that abandonment would limit access to its property and 209 urged the City to require the Applicant to cooperate with 209 and address 209’s concerns. (A:1205-07). City staff opined that if abandonment is not approved for ju st one of the roads, “considerable redesign of the project” would need to foll ow (even though abandonment was not part of the original Plan). (A:1217). The Applicant opposed a re-design because doing so would “become[] very hard with all the code requirements that we have.” (A:1221-23). The City Mayor recogniz ed the Applicant re-designed the Project “way too many times” and affirmed: “W e are not starting NOT A CERTIFIED COPY407 9 53911086v8 from scratch at the last hour.” (A:1231). Following this aff irmation, the City Mayor sought a motion to grant first reading approval to the p roposed ordinance, with the condition that the Applicant “work[] with the adjacent pro perty owners for the abandonment request.” (A:1233-34). The motion passed unanimously. (A:1234). There is no record evidence the Applicant ever “worked with [209 on] the abandonment request.”2 At no point during the 2/21 hearing was there any com petent substantial evidence presented by the City or Applicant add ressing whether or not police, fire or emergency services would be impacted by the a bandonment request. On March 9, 2023, 209 submitted a second letter reiteratin g its concerns in great detail. (A:1591-92). At the second quasi-judicial hearin g held later that day, the Applicant sought final approval of its Application. (A:1603-1702). Prior to this hearing, City staff had already recommended approval despit e the fact that it still had not heard from the City traffic engineer on road abandonmen t nor received input from police, fire, or other emergency services to address the im plications arising from road abandonments. (A:1409). 2 This comes as no real surprise. A property owner nearby commended the City for requiring the Applicant to contact that owner regarding its concerns “[b]ecause prior to that, we were not contacted at all.” (A:1207). That is in line with 209’s own experience. The property owner urged the Cit y not to remove the condition that the Applicant continue to cooperate wit h that property owner for fear that the Applicant would stop cooperating. (A:1207-0 8). NOT A CERTIFIED COPY408 10 53911086v8 During the hearing, 209 presented testimony from a traffic engineer, Joaquin Vargas, to address road abandonment—the only witness who presented on the subject matter. The expert testified: (i) road abandonments are u ncommon but when the issue arises, detailed traffic studies are usually perf ormed; (ii) a traffic study had not been undertaken for NE 1st Avenue in connection with the Project; (iii) a road abandonment of NE 1st Avenue nevertheless “would cause so me traffic concerns for the area,” including exacerbating traffic backup in multi ple locations and limiting road access; (iv) a road abandonment would result in a “sig nificant impact to [209’s] parcel from an access point of view to get to the parcel and also to leave from the parcel”; and (v) increase in traffic will cause safety concer ns and safety hazards. (A:1629-36, 1685-88). 209 also cross-examined City staff, which put together the re commendation of approval of the Application despite the absence of any analysis on the impact abandonment has on public safety as required by the LDR. (A:16 36-38). Based on the evidence presented at the hearing, 209 argued that abandoning the roads would create traffic and safety issues. (A:1638-41). 209 also po inted out there was no record evidence reflecting the assurance of the provision o f local governmental services, such as fire and police, to properties near the al leys and right-of-way after abandonment. (A:1640-41, 1688-89). Moreover, in the absence of an analysis on public safety or the undertaking of any traffic study assessin g the effect of a road NOT A CERTIFIED COPY409 11 53911086v8 abandonment on properties near the right-of-way and alleys, th e Applicant failed to satisfy its burden to meet the criteria in the LRD regulation s and failed to present competent substantial evidence to support its Application. (A:1640-41, 1688-89). In addition to 209’s opposition, members of the public and local businesspersons operating near the North Alley and elsewhere , sought a delay of, or otherwise opposed, the City’s approval of the Application because of the limited road access and adverse economic impact an abandonment wou ld create to local businesses. (A:1641-45). The Applicant itself recognized r oad access issues, testified it was a complicated issue that warranted a “much greater discussion” in the future, and recognized there was no immediate solution in p lace and that more time would be needed to find one. (A:1648-49). When pressed by some City commissioners, the Applicant ultimately agreed to enter i nto an access agreement with just one businessowner (A:1661), and with that, the Ci ty pressed on as it clearly intended from the outset.3 3 An agreement to agree is tantamount to no agreement at all, e.g., Geico Cas. Ins. Co. v. Dupotey , 826 So. 2d 380, 382 (Fla. 3d DCA 2002) (statements of futu re intentions do not give rise to an enforceable contract), a nd one access agreement with one businessowner does not address concerns raised by 209 and others. The Applicant endeavored to shift the blame to 209 for not re aching out to it previously about 209’s concerns. (A:1689-90). But the Cit y placed the onus on the Applicant, not on 209, to “work[] with the adjacent property owners for the abandonment request.” (A:1233-34). And, despite the City’s d irective to do so, there is no evidence the Applicant did that following the first readi ng of the proposed ordinance and before the City’s final approval of the Application. NOT A CERTIFIED COPY410 12 53911086v8 The City examined City staff, who testified that a traffic study was submitted along with the Master Plan and site plan and that police a nd fire departments reviewed these plans. (A:1645-46). However, that Master Plan was unconcerned about adjacent properties, such as 209 and there was no record evidence included with the City’s Staff Report that addressed whether the aban donment would cause or result in a permanent stoppage, interruption, or an unacceptable level of service with respect to police, fire, or other emergency services. (A:16 84-89). The record available to 209 reflects that local government units on ly reviewed the Project in master plan format, and not the abandonments. (Id.; A:1006-09). The City Staff Report addressing the master plan reflects: (A:1009). There is no indication the local government units providing critical services to the 209 Property and the area impacted by the Project reviewed anything other than the site plan, and certainly no evidence that they reviewed and commented on the abandonment. Despite various suggestions to table the abandonment App lication pending further review and despite 209 illustrating the absence of competent substantial evidence to support the grant of the Application, the City approved the Application NOT A CERTIFIED COPY411 13 53911086v8 at the conclusion of the hearing, without competent subs tantial evidence to support this approval. (A:1697-99).4 Following the hearing on March 9, the City issued Ordina nce No. 23-006 (“Ordinance”). (A:1704-11). The Ordinance provides City staff had determined the requested road abandonment would not adversely impact traffic, other City functions, or adjacent property owners and that the right-of-way no longer served a public purpose other than retention of a utility easement . (A:1704). Based on these staff determinations, the City Commission formally abandoned the North and South Alleys as well as the right-of-way on NE 1st Avenue. T he Ordinance took immediate effect on March 13, 2023, upon its passage. This Petitio n follows, seeking review of the Ordinance. 209 reserves the right to file suit in state or federal co urt to pursue all equitable statutory and legal remedies afforded it under the law. See England v. Louisiana State Board of Medical Examiners , 375 U.S. 411, 420-422 (1964), and Fields v. Sarasota Manatee Airport Authority , 953 F.2d 1299 (11th Cir. 1992). III. BASIS FOR INVOKING JURISDICTION AND STANDARD OF REVIEW This Petition arises from the City Commission’s improper ap proval of the Applicant’s Application. The Applicant’s Application is required to meet all of the 4 As one public commentator astutely noted: “it seems lik e you know, the commission and the [C]ity, you kinda do – do what you wa nna do.” (A:1215). NOT A CERTIFIED COPY412 14 53911086v8 applicable requirements of the City’s Code. It does not. Following quasi-judicial hearings held by the City Commission in relation to the Application, the City Commission approved the Application even though it is unc ontroverted that the Application failed to satisfy all of the criteria set fo rth in the Code and, in fact, was completely lacking in competent substantial evidence to satisfy the essential criteria. Indeed, the City’s staff report failed even to men tion all of the Code provisions that must be satisfied in order to approve an ab andonment. Additionally, it is evident based on the discussion had by the Cit y Commission at the public meetings held on February 21 and March 9, 2023, that th is Project was something desired by the City, and no matter whether there was com petent substantial evidence to support it or not, the City was going to app rove the abandonment. The City improperly disregarded the Code to achieve a pre-determine d result, in a stark departure from the essential requirements of the law. The jurisdiction of this Court is therefore invoked pursu ant to Article V, § 5(b), of the Florida Constitution and Florida Rule of Appellat e Procedure 9.030(c)(2). Certiorari lies to review the exercise of quasi-ju dicial power exercised by a city commission. See, e.g., Brevard Cty. v. Snyder , 627 So. 2d 469, 476 (Fla. 1993). Proceedings conducted by a city council, which proce edings address rezoning applications, are quasi-judicial in nature. Parker Family Trust I v. City of Jacksonville , 804 So. 2d 493 (Fla. 1st DCA 2001). NOT A CERTIFIED COPY413 15 53911086v8 To sustain the decision, the City must establish that i ts decision was supported by substantial competent evidence, that the decision accor ds with the essential requirements of law, and that the City Commission provided for due process in relation to the quasi-judicial hearings. Irvine v. Duval Cty. Planning Comm’n, 466 So. 2d 357, 362 (Fla. 1st DCA 1985), dissent approved by Irvine v. Duval Cty. Planning Comm’n , 495 So. 2d 167 (Fla. 1986). Substantial competent evidence in the context of certiorari proceedings has been defined as: . . . such evidence as will establish a substantial basis of fact from which the fact at issue can be reasonably inferred. We have stated it to be such relevant evidence as a reasonable mind would accept as adequate to support a conclusion. In employing the adjective “competent” to modify the word “substantial,” we are aware of the familiar rule that in administrative proceedings the formalities in the introduction of testimony common to the courts of justice are not strictly employed. We are of the view, however, that the evidence relied upon to sustain the ultimate finding should be sufficiently relevant and material that a reasonable mind would accept it as adequate to support the conclusion reached. To this extent the “substantial” evidence should also be “competent.” De Groot v. Sheffield, 95 So. 2d 912, 916 (Fla. 1957) (citations omitted). Here, the only evidence in the record confirmed the Applicati on failed to satisfy all of the applicable criteria set forth in the City’s own code when considering an abandonment. There being no substantial competent evi dence in the record to NOT A CERTIFIED COPY414 16 53911086v8 support its decision under the application of the correct law, or findings made by the City Commission, approval of the Application was incorre ct and should be quashed. IV. NATURE OF RELIEF SOUGHT Petitioner seeks issuance of a Writ of Certiorari, quashing the City’s March 9, 2023 Ordinance approving the Applicant’s Application beca use there is no substantial competent evidence to support the City’s deci sion and the decision departs from the essential requirements of the law. V. ARGUMENT A. THE COMMISSION FAILED TO COMPLY WITH THE ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS OF THE LAW WHEN IT APPROVED THE APPLICANT’S APPLICATION. i. The Failure of the City to Render a Decision Based on Established Criteria Constitutes a Departure from the Essential Requirements of the Law. The abandonment criteria as established in the City code is as follows in pertinent part: Vacation and Abandonment. 1. General. The purpose of this subsection is to establish uniform procedures for the vacation and abandonment of city rights-of-way (e.g. street, alley, etc.), special purpose e asements, and other non-fee interests of the city. When approved for vacation and abandonment, the city relinquishes its int erest in the above, based in part, on the finding that the subje ct right-of- way no longer serves a public purpose. For the purposes of this subsection, a “site plan” shall be construed to include either a new site plan or a major site plan modification. 2. Submittal Requirements. See Section 1.D. above for the submittal requirements of this application. NOT A CERTIFIED COPY415 17 53911086v8 3. Review Criteria. The vacation and abandonment of a right-of-way, special purpose easement, or other non-fee interest of the city shall be based on a demonstration that the above interest no longer serves a public purpose and there is no encumbrance which would prohibit the clear transfer of ownership of such land. The following review criteria shall be used to justify an application: a. Access. Does the subject land provide a legal means of access to a lot of record, subdivision, or development? Would the vacation and abandonment cause or result in a permanent stoppage, interruption, or an unacceptable level of service for the sub ject lot or on neighboring lots, subdivisions, or developments with respect to police, fire, or other emergency services; or solid waste removal? b. Utilities. Does the subject land contain, support, or allow potable water, sanitary sewer, or any other utility (e.g. cable, telephone, electricity, gas, etc.), which would be permanently stopped or interrupted, or cause an unacceptable level of servi ce to the subject lot or neighboring lots, subdivisions , or developments? c. Drainage and Wastewater Management. Does the subject land contain, support, or allow a legal means of drainag e or wastewater management for such lot or on neighboring lots, subdivisions, or developments, which would cause or result in a stoppage, interruption, or unacceptable level of service? d. Conservation. Does the subject land contain, support, or allow the means for the conservation or preservation of fl ora or fauna? LDR Section 2.G.1-3. As detailed extensively above, the City Commission vot ed in favor of the Application despite the abandonment criteria, as specified in Section 2.G.3 of the City’s Land Development Regulations not being met. This is a departure from the essential requirements of the law. The City failed to even review and analyze the evidence, or lack thereof, in the record to act in their quasi -judicial capacity to NOT A CERTIFIED COPY416 18 53911086v8 enforce the applicable law, opting instead to favor thei r own feelings and opinions as to a desired result. See Alvey v. City of North Miami Beach , 206 So. 3d 67 (Fla. 3d DCA 2016) (granting rezoning based on perceived econom ic benefit to city and not based on enumerated criteria was a departure from essential requirements of the law). Under Florida law, a departure from the essential requirements of the law in this context means “an inherent illegality or irregularity, an abuse of judicial power, an act of judicial tyranny perpetrated with disregard of procedural requirements, resulting in a gross miscarriage of justice.” Haines City Cmty. Dev. v. Heggs, 658 So. 2d 523, 527 (Fla. 1995) (internal citations omitte d). A departure from the essential requirements of the law is not merely a disagreement wi th the interpretation of applicable law but instead must include an applica tion of incorrect law or a miscarriage of justice. Ivey v. Allstate Ins. Co ., 774 So. 2d 67, 683 (Fla. 2000). Florida courts have consistently determined that a municipal ity departs from the essential requirements of the law by rendering decisio ns that are not based on the established criteria or factors. See Alvey v. City of N. Miami Beach, supra (quasi- judicial body must apply established criteria and not vote based on other factors) (granting rezoning based on perceived economic benefit to city and not based on enumerated criteria was a departure from essential requirements o f the law); Wolk v. Bd. of Cty. Comm’rs of Seminole Cty.,117 So. 3d 1219 (Fla. 5th DCA 2013) (holding NOT A CERTIFIED COPY417 19 53911086v8 that a miscarriage of justice results where wrong law is a pplied by a local governmental body); City of Jacksonville v. Taylor , 721 So. 2d 1212 (Fla. 1st DCA 1998) (granting a variance because of others previously given and not based on code’s criteria was improper). Alvey is most instructive here and frankly mirrors the decision made by the City Commission. There, the City of North Miami Beach approved a rezoning not based on the established criteria in the city’s code but instead because the city council believed that the rezoning and proposed project would economically benefit the city. Alvey , 206 So.3d at 72. The appellate court held that decision was a departure from the essential requirements of the law as the city council failed to apply the correct law in the city’s code for consideration of the zoning application there. Id . at 73. Simply put, if a municipality does not base its decisions on the application of the correct law or criteria, then the decisio n rendered is a departure from the essential requirements of the law. Id. Here, the decision made by the City is akin to the invali d decision rendered in Alvey . Specifically, Section 2.G.3(a) of the City’s Code addressin g the necessary criteria to be satisfied for abandonments provides as follows: a. Access. Does the subject land provide a legal means of access to a lot of record, subdivision, or development? Would the vacation of abandonment cause or result in a permanent stoppage, interruption, or an unacceptable level of service for the subject lot or on neighboring lots, subdivisions , or NOT A CERTIFIED COPY418 20 53911086v8 developments with respect to police, fire, or other emergency services; or solid waste removal? The City did not address this criterion. Instead, person al views and opinions permeated into the City Commission’s decision-making pro cess and impermissibly tainted their votes on this quasi-judicial decision. Th e decision made by the City Commission was not made through application of the correct law and thus this decision constitutes a departure from the essential requiremen ts of the law and must be quashed. B. THE CITY COMMISSION FAILED TO MAKE OR RECORD ANY FINDINGS IN VIOLATION OF THE ESSENTIAL REQUIREMENTS OF THE LAW, ALSO EVIDENCING THE FAILURE TO APPLY ESTABLISHED CRITERIA. In determining whether the essential requirements of law we re met upon a review of a quasi-judicial action, this Court must examine whether the City Commission made detailed findings of fact supporting the den ial of the Application. Irvine, 466 So. 2d at 365. “All administrative agency orders must contain detailed findings of fact that are legally sufficient to support the decision ordered.” Id. Furthermore, “[i]t has been repeatedly held by the courts of this state that in order to assure due process and equal protection of the laws, every fi nal order entered by an administrative agency in the exercise of its quasi-judicial fu nctions must contain specific findings of fact upon which its ultimate action is taken. An administrative order which fails to contain such findings is ineffectua l as a predicate of the order NOT A CERTIFIED COPY419 21 53911086v8 sought to be enforced.” Gentry v. Dep’t of Prof’l & Occupational Regulations, State Bd. of Med. Exam’rs, 283 So. 2d 386, 387 (Fla. 1st DCA 1973); see also Hayes v. Monroe Cty., 337 So. 3d 442, 445 (Fla. 3d DCA 2022). Findings that are merely general conclusions parroting the language of the statute or ordinance are insufficient as a matter of law because such conclusions provide no way for the appellate court to know on judici al review whether the conclusions have sufficient foundation in findings of fact. Irvine, 466 So. 2d at 366 (citing City of Apopka v. Orange Cty., 299 So. 2d 657 (Fla. 4th DCA 1974)). The failure to make specific findings constitutes a departur e from the essential requirements of the law in and of itself. Planning Com’n of City of Jacksonville v. Brooks, 579 So. 2d 270, 272 (Fla. 1st DCA 1991) (citing Irvine , 466 So. 2d at 366- 367). Most significantly, Florida law provides that rega rdless of which party bears the burden of proof, a city’s failure to make adequate finding s of fact constitutes a departure from the essential requirements of law. Irvine , 466 So. 2d at 366; see also Brooks, 579 So. 2d at 273-274 (finding no error in circuit co urt’s ruling that commission failed to present any record evidence in suppor t of its decision to deny application). While the City at the March 9, 2023 meeting attempted to ar gue in rebuttal that there was police and fire review of the Master Plan, t his Plan did not contemplate abandonment. (A:1646). The City Staff Report as it related to the Master Plan only NOT A CERTIFIED COPY420 22 53911086v8 addressed how fire and police approved of the impacts of th e Project with its then current or expected infrastructure and/or staffing levels an d ignored any impacts the abandonment may have as it pertains to neighboring lots . (A:759-63). Simply put, it’s apples and oranges. While the police, fire and emergency services may have provided review and input as to their services to the Projec t, the record is devoid of any evidence as to what the impacts may or may not be to neighb oring property and specifically 209 that will be losing significant access b ased on the abandonment. The complete lack of detailed findings requires this Court to find that the essential requirements of the law were not met. See Brooks , 579 So. 2d at 273; Irvine, 466 So. 2d at 366-367. C. THE DECISION OF THE CITY COMMISSION IS NOT SUPPORTED BY SUBSTANTIAL COMPETENT EVIDENCE. i. The Application is Not Justified as there is No Competent Substantial Evidence Supporting All of the Relevant Review Criteria for an Abandonment. The criteria set forth in LDR section 2.G.3(a) is determinative of why the Application should not have been granted in this case . It provides in relevant part as noted above: Access. Does the subject land provide a legal means of ac cess to a lot of record, subdivision, or development? Would the vac ation of abandonment cause or result in a permanent stoppage, interrupti on, or an unacceptable level of service for the subject lot or on n eighboring NOT A CERTIFIED COPY421 23 53911086v8 lots, subdivisions, or developments with respect to pol ice, fire, or other emergency services; or solid waste removal? The Staff Reports are the City’s only effort at entering substa ntial competent evidence into the record. (A:702-804, 1094-1110). Florida law recognizes that the staff reports prepared by the professional planning staffs are considered substantial competent evidence and satisfy the standard of evidence a governing body may rely on to support its decision. Hillsborough Cty. Bd. of Cty. Comm’rs v. Longo, 505 So. 2d 470 (Fla. 2d DCA 1987). Here, however, the Staff Reports are devo id of any evidence addressing whether vacation or abandonment may cause or result in a permanent stoppage, interruption, or an unacceptable lev el of service for the subject lot or on neighboring lots, subdivisions, or development s with respect to police, fire, or other emergency services. (A:702-804, 1094-1110). The Cit y certainly knows of its obligations to satisfy factors in the abandonment a nd obtained input from City Engineering, Public Works/Utilities, Planning and Zoning, and Public Utilities. (A:1107-1110). The Staff Report even addressed the traffic issues related to these abandonments but said nothing as to the determination need ed that the abandonment would not result in an interruption or unacceptable servi ce level of police, fire, or other emergency services for 209 or any other neighboring lots. (A:1085-1110, 1398-1423, 1646). While the City attempted to provide evidence in respons e to the arguments presented, it fell short. Indeed, while it provided te stimony asserting that there was NOT A CERTIFIED COPY422 24 53911086v8 review of the master plan, there was no testimony on any pol ice, fire, or other emergency services impacts on 209 or any neighboring prop erties as a result of the proposed abandonments. (A:1645-46, 1688-89). Additionall y, the Staff report considering the Master Plan provided no input as to the aban donments. (A:1003- 1010, 1468-75). This constitutes a total failure to provide any competent substantial evidence satisfying LDR section 2.G.3(a), which is necessary to appro ve the abandonment. This failure to have any evidence that supporting the s atisfaction of this LDR section must result in the denial of the Application. As the Application was approved without competent substantial evidence for a necessary element, the approval must be quashed. VI. CONCLUSION For the foregoing reasons, it is respectfully submitted th at this Court should quash the City Commission Ordinance approving the Appli cation, and for such other and further direct and relief as this Court may deem appropriate u nder the circumstances.

FEDERAL, FDC, and CAMALIER accountable for their tortious interference, abuse of process and extorti onate behavior related to BB QOZ’s efforts to redevelop and revitalize a section of the City of Boynton Beach pursuant to the terms of its Purchase & Sale Agreement (“PSA”) with the Boynton Bea ch Community Redevelopment Agency (“BB CRA”). This is nothing but a shakedown effort by CA MALIER and his entities, 209 N. FEDERAL and FDC, to hold BB QOZ, the City of Boynton Beach, and its residents’ hostage in an effort to force an inflated purchase price f or his adjacent property or NOT A CERTIFIED COPY427 3 Armstrong Teasdale LLP 355 Alhambra Circle, Suit e 1250, Coral Gables, FL 33134 T 305.371.8809 F 305.448.4155 ArmstrongTeasdale.com receive a portion of the deal/project to which he has no right. As a result of these extortiona te and tortious acts and abuse of process, BB QOZ’s ability to proceed with the rede velopment and revitalization of City of Boynton Beach has been jeopardized and BB QOZ has incurred substantial damages in excess of $500,000.00. The redevelopment and revitalization of the City of Boynton Beach 9. Pursuant to the Community Redevelopment Act of 1969, the BB CRA was established in 1982 by the City Commission to undertake activities and projects that would eradicate conditions of slum and blight in the Boynton Beach community. The ma in objective of the BB CRA was and is to spearhead new development and redevelopment e fforts that accomplish beneficial revitalization within its boundaries through planning, redevelopment, historic preservation, economic development and affordable housing so that the tax ba se can be protected and enhanced by these mutually supportive activities. 10. BB CRA is responsible for developing and implementing projects within the BB CRA area, which spans 1,650 acres within eastern Boynton Beach. Its mission is dedicated to serving the community and strives to create a more vibrant community. The BB CRA Plan guides the agency to strategically execute a variety of redevelopment projects and programs that encourage the revitalization of Boynton Beach. One of the redevelopment projects is The Pierce Project (the “Project”). 11. BB QOZ is a single purpose entity created by Affiliated Development, LLC (“Affiliated”). Affiliated is a national real estate investme nt and development company headquartered in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Affiliated was formed with the goal of building mixed- use multifamily developments, like The Pierce, which target unmet dem and and underserved areas such as the BB CRA area. NOT A CERTIFIED COPY428 4 Armstrong Teasdale LLP 355 Alhambra Circle, Suit e 1250, Coral Gables, FL 33134 T 305.371.8809 F 305.448.4155 ArmstrongTeasdale.com 12. 209 N. FEDERAL owns real property located at 209 North Federal Hi ghway in the City of Boynton Beach, Florida (the “209 Property”) and currently leases it to The Boardwalk Italian Ice and Creamery, LLC (“Boardwalk Ice Cream”). 13. The Project is located at 115 N. Federal Highway in Downtown Boynton Be ach, including the associated parking lots located at 501 NE 1 st Avenue and NE 4th Street, which have long been recognized as important components in the future redevelopment of the core Boynton Beach area. The much needed and desired development to Boynton Beach will bring affordable housing to the area, restaurants, retail, office space, and public parking spaces. 14. As detailed below, this transformative Project for the citizens of Boynton Be ach is a mixed-use redevelopment Project that will include 300 mixed-income residential a partments, as well as approximately 17,000 square feet of restaurant, retail, and off ice space, and 150 public parking spaces. 15. The Project has consisted of nearly 3 years of work, including countless hour s spent meeting with residents, businesses and community stakeholders, as well as cit y staff, to bring about a Project that will be catalytic for east Boynton Beach - - The Pierce. This Project will cost $100 million dollars, generate $1.3 million in annual tax revenues, and create an economic impact north of $9 million per year to help support, attract and retain east Boynton Beach businesses. 16. Importantly, it will provide 150 much needed workforce housing units to provide Boynton Beach residents with a class A living experience at attainable rents, which will hel p ease the burden for working-class households in Boynton Beach. As part of the Tax Incr ement Revenue Financing Agreement (“TIRFA”), Affiliated will rent 50% of the units at 80% - 120% of the Area Median Income (“AMI”) for a period of 15 years following the completion of the Project. At the end of the 15-year term, 30% of the units will be rented at the same A MI percentages for an NOT A CERTIFIED COPY429 5 Armstrong Teasdale LLP 355 Alhambra Circle, Suit e 1250, Coral Gables, FL 33134 T 305.371.8809 F 305.448.4155 ArmstrongTeasdale.com additional 15 years. At the end of the 30-year term of affordability, 10% of the units will remain subject to the affordability requirements in perpetuity. 17. In addition, it will provide 150 public parking spaces, which will help support convenient access to nearby businesses and lead to the relocation of Boynton Beac h dining and drinking ‘establishment’, Hurricane Alley, who is relocating from the sout hern portion of the site to Boynton Beach Boulevard, pursuant to a deal BB QOZ has made with them that will help ensure that this business (and their employees) remain in Boynton Beach for the foreseeable future. It will also lead to nearly half a million dollars in public art improvements by local artists, as committed to by BB QOZ. 18. Overall, the Project has garnered overwhelming support. Several City Commission meetings have been standing-room-only comprised of supporters of the Project, incl uding the owners of Boardwalk Ice Cream”, i.e., the operators of the business located at the 209 Property, who are on record at public meetings voicing their support for this Proj ect. As an example of the BB QOZ’s investment in the local Boynton Beach community, the Project inve stors will be substantially comprised of South Florida police, fire and general employee pension plans who are committed to investing where they serve. BB CRA awarded the Project to BB QOZ and not CAMALIER or his affiliated entities. 19. In or around, September 2020, BB QOZ began actively pursuing properties that surround the BB CRA owned lots, including 115 N. Federal Highway. 20. In or around, December 2020, BB QOZ submitted a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) t o the BB CRA Board and Staff advising of its interest in pursuing the BB CRA ow ned site, 115 N. Federal Highway, for purposes of building a transformative redevelopment project. NOT A CERTIFIED COPY430 6 Armstrong Teasdale LLP 355 Alhambra Circle, Suit e 1250, Coral Gables, FL 33134 T 305.371.8809 F 305.448.4155 ArmstrongTeasdale.com 21. In or around March-June 2021, BB QOZ was informed that CAMALIER was interested in selling his city block property, 114 N. Federal Highway, which i s across from the BB CRA owned site and his contiguous property, 209 N. Federal Highway, which is the property that is the subject of the suit. NOT A CERTIFIED COPY431 7 Armstrong Teasdale LLP 355 Alhambra Circle, Suit e 1250, Coral Gables, FL 33134 T 305.371.8809 F 305.448.4155 ArmstrongTeasdale.com 22. Affiliated and CAMALIER had multiple meetings and calls whereby CAMALIER expressed interest in either selling or contributing (as equity) the 209 Proper ty for purposes of building a project together with the BB CRA owned lots. 23. At that time, in an attempt to negotiate in good faith and at the request of CAMALIER, BB QOZ shared with CAMALIER its proprietary information (via emai l) with a specific caveat that the proprietary information be kept confidential. Unfortunately, based on CAMALIER’s subsequent actions, it was clear that CAMALIER was just gathering i nformation to arm himself to try and gain a competitive advantage so that he could pur sue the BB CRA owned lots with another development group, Hyperion Development Group (“Hyperion”) and beat BB QOZ to the rights to pursue the Project. 24. On or about June 8, 2021, CAMALIER and Hyperion (a joint venture collaboration) attempted to jump the line and circumvent the Request for Proposals and Developer Qualifications (“RFP/RFQ”) by submitting a LOI requesting the BB CR A Board to work with CAMALIER and Hyperion exclusively on the BB CRA owned site, largely based on the fact that CAMALIER, who was part of the proposing entity, owned the properties at 209 N. Federal Highway and 114 N. Federal Highway, and could contribute those properties towards a larger scale project. A copy of the correspondence sent by Hyperion to BB CRA dated June 8, 2021 is attached hereto as Exhibit “A”. 25. The BB CRA Board held a meeting on June 9, 2021 and, in response to Hyperio n’s June 8, 2021 correspondence, elected not to issue the Staff prepared RFP/RFQ to solicit proposals for the BB CRA parcel located at 115 N. Federal Highway. The BB C RA wanted to further explore the LOI submitted by Hyperion and CAMALIER, as well as to allow other de velopers, including Affiliated, to participate. NOT A CERTIFIED COPY432 8 Armstrong Teasdale LLP 355 Alhambra Circle, Suit e 1250, Coral Gables, FL 33134 T 305.371.8809 F 305.448.4155 ArmstrongTeasdale.com 26. Notwithstanding and despite CAMALIER’s efforts, on or about July 13, 2021, the BB CRA Board voted unanimously to reject the LOI from CAMALIER and Hype rion, and instead appropriately moved forward with a competitive RFP/RFQ. 27. On July 23, 2021, the BB CRA issued a RFP/RFQ for the acquisition and redevelopment of the BB CRA owned parcels. The RFP/RFQ Submittal due date was October 21, 2021. BB QOZ made its Submittal within the stated time frame. 28. On November 4, 2021, BB QOZ presented its Submittal Presentation to the BB CRA Advisory Board. Additional submitted RFPs were made available to t he BB CRA Board Members for upcoming presentation on November 9, 2021. 29. On November 30, 2021, BB QOZ/Affiliated was selected in a landslide vote by t he BB CRA Board over five (5) other bidders, including CAMALIER and Hyperion. BB QOZ then proceeded to commence negotiations on agreements for the BB CRA owned site for the Proj ect. 30. Shortly thereafter, BB QOZ received a call from CAMALIER and Hyperion s tating that BB QOZ needed to buy the 209 Property because 209 N. FEDERAL, FDC, and CAMALIER “own everything around it”. In fact, 209 N. FEDERAL, FDC, and CAMALIER had the Mayor reach out to BBQOZ via email specifically asking that BB QOZ consi der purchasing the 209 Property. The inference was simple: you need my property to successfully pr oceed with the Project. 31. Hyperion, who had an option with CAMALIER to purchase the 209 Property, indicated that the 209 Property would no longer be suitable for Hyperion because BB QOZ won the RFP. Instead, Hyperion asked BB QOZ if it wanted to assume Hyperion’s option to purchase the 209 Property. A copy of the correspondence from Hyperion to BB QOZ dated December 23, 2021 is attached hereto as Exhibit “B”. NOT A CERTIFIED COPY433 9 Armstrong Teasdale LLP 355 Alhambra Circle, Suit e 1250, Coral Gables, FL 33134 T 305.371.8809 F 305.448.4155 ArmstrongTeasdale.com 32. In or around January 2022, after signing a Non-Disclosure Agreement with Hyperion, BB QOZ evaluated the Agreement of Purchase and Sale betwee n Hyperion and CAMALIER for the 209 Property and determined that the price was excessive f or the actual value of the Property. In addition, BB QOZ determined that by assuming the purchase option and buying the 209 Property, it overcomplicated the already very complicated Project and presented multiple timing challenges. This business decision was explained to CAMALIER and Hyperion. Once CAMALIER became aware that BB QOZ was not going to purchase the 209 Property and Hyperion had no incentive, Hyperion dropped the option and CAMALIER remains the ow ner of the 209 Property. 33. Beginning in or around December 2021 through July 2022, BB QOZ negotiated with BB CRA Staff and BB CRA Board at significant cost multiple agreements necessary to move forward with the Project. The RFP/RFQ and BB QOZ’s agreements wit h the BB CRA and the City of Boynton Beach related to the Project include language that the P roject will be subject to City Code, the master plan, and the site plan approval process. Therefore , it was clear, as is the case in all public/private partnership such as this, that BB QOZ’s initi al proposal would change as may be necessary in order to comply with the City Code and meet the requirements of the City of Boynton Beach. 34. On June 7, 2022, the BB CRA Board entered into three (3) agreements including a Purchase & Development Agreement, TIRFA, and a Parking Lease Agreem ent with BB QOZ/Affiliated. 35. On July 5, 2022, at a City Commission Meeting, BB QOZ received approval on all three (3) BB CRA and City of Boynton Beach agreements memorializing the details of purchasing the BB CRA owned site. NOT A CERTIFIED COPY434 10 Armstrong Teasdale LLP 355 Alhambra Circle, Suit e 1250, Coral Gables, FL 33134 T 305.371.8809 F 305.448.4155 ArmstrongTeasdale.com 36. In or around September 2022, BB QOZ submitted for site plan approvals a nd participated in the site plan approval process with City of Boynton Beac h staff and the multiple authorities having jurisdiction of the BB CRA owned site property and the Project. Meeti ngs, site plan approval comments and review, coordination with Florida Power & Light (“FPL”), City of Boynton Beach staff, and other related entities were continuous. 37. Approval of the Project by BB CRA includes approval for three (3) applicat ions of abandonment of roads located near the parcels. Abandonment of Roads is governed by Section Boynton Beach, Part III Land Development Regulations (“LDR”), Chapter 2, Article II, Planning and Zoning Division Services, Section 2.G.3. 38. At a Special Planning & Zoning Public Meeting held on or about February 6, 2023, BB QOZ received unanimous approval of the Site Plan by the Planning & Zo ning Development Board. All notifications and postings were made on time. Neither 209 N. FEDER AL, CAMALIER nor their representatives attended this meeting to voice an appropriate objecti on for consideration by the BB CRA before it approved the Site Plan. 39. On or about February 21, 2023, the first reading of BB QOZ’s updated zoning development approvals with City Commission commenced and again received unanimous approval. Bonnie Miskel, Esq., counsel on behalf of 209 N. FEDERAL, FDC, and CAMALIER, and who at one point also represented Hyperion, was present at the public mee ting and spoke to object regarding the road abandonment. Ms. Miskel also sent an email and letter sta ting case law and threatening a lawsuit. A copy of the February 21, 2023 correspondence from Dunay, Miskel and Backman, LLP is attached hereto as Exhibit “C”. NOT A CERTIFIED COPY435 11 Armstrong Teasdale LLP 355 Alhambra Circle, Suit e 1250, Coral Gables, FL 33134 T 305.371.8809 F 305.448.4155 ArmstrongTeasdale.com 40. On March 2, 2023, counsel for 209 N. FEDERAL, CAMALIER, and FDC requested and was granted additional time to present at the upcoming March 9, 20203 public meeting regarding the Project. 41. On or about March 9, 2023, counsel for 209 N. FEDERAL, FDC, and CAMALIER presented for thirty (30) minutes to the BB CRA Board and the City Com mission to voice their objections to the Staff recommendation of approval of three (3) applicat ions for abandonment of the Northeast 1 st Avenue right-of-way, the north alley, and the south alley located in or around the BB CRA properties. 42. BB QOZ and BB CRA, in compliance with LDR, considered and presented competent and substantial evidence to support an express factual finding whethe r the abandonment would result in “a permanent stoppage, interruption, or an unacceptable level of service for the subject lot or on neighboring lots, subdivisions, or developments with respect to poli ce, fire, or other emergency services; or solid waste removal.” 43. Despite 209 N. FEDERAL, FDC, and CAMALIER’s objections, the second reading of BB QOZ’s development approvals again received unanimous approval by the Planning & Zoning Development Board. 44. CAMALIER, 209 N. FEDERAL, and FDC challenged the approvals by objecting to the abandonment of NE 1 st Street, which is necessary for the Project, and claiming that the abandonment would severely and detrimentally affect access to Boardwalk Ice Cream’s business. This has no basis in fact and is simply frivolous. In truth, BB QOZ has been in constant communication with Boardwalk Ice Cream who has repeatedly been present at public meetings and has publicly supported the Project. Moreover, BB QOZ and Boardwalk Ice Crea m have made arrangements for Boardwalk Ice Cream to continue its business at the Project.

Having failed to jump the line with his LOI, failed to secure the P roject through the RFP process, failed to get BB QOZ to buy the 209 Property at an infla ted price and failed to stop the Project from moving forward based on a bogus abandonment argument, CAMALIER shifted gears in order to either get his payday or get a piece of the pie. 46. This is not surprising because CAMALIER has a history of frivolous challenges to development projects, like the Project, where he has not gotten his way. I n fact, a $40 million dollar verdict against CAMALIER’s entity, Camalier, LP was affirmed in Maryland regarding CAMALIER’s interference with a development project by the Penrose Group. See CR-RSC Tower I, LLC, et al. v. RSC Tower I, LLC, et al ., 429 Md. 387 (Md. 2012) 56 A. 3d 170. 47. To that end, on April 7, 2023, 209 N. FEDERAL filed a Petition for Writ of Certiorari against the City of Boynton Beach arguing that no substantial, competent evidence to support the City’s decision regarding the three (3) applications of abandonment of roads was presented and as such, it was a departure from the essential requirem ents of the law. In its Petition, 209 N. FEDERAL is improperly attempting to re-litigate the application for abandonment.148. In its Petition, 209 N. FEDERAL states that road abandonments were not part of the Project’s original plans submitted to the City of Boynton Beach. However , that is simply a self-serving statement. 209 N. FEDERAL, FDC, and CAMALIER are very well awa re of the LOI, RFP/RFP, and approval process as they were involved in the same proves t hemselves. 209 N. FEDERAL, FDC, and CAMALIER also are very well aware that preli minary submittals are as a matter of course regularly revised during the submittal process to address and resolve issues raised 1 Respondent, City of Boynton Beach, filed its Response to 209 N. FEDERAL’s Pet ition for Writ of Certiorari on May 17, 2023. The Response is attached as Exhibit “D” and f ully incorporated herein for reference. NOT A CERTIFIED COPY437 13 Armstrong Teasdale LLP 355 Alhambra Circle, Suit e 1250, Coral Gables, FL 33134 T 305.371.8809 F 305.448.4155 ArmstrongTeasdale.com by the City and other public/private entities involved in these public/privat e mixed-use developments. To say otherwise is disingenuous. 49. As the City of Boynton Beach states in its Response, 209 N. FEDERAL blatantly ignores the record supporting the City’s decision and is improperly asking the Court to reweigh the evidence. 2 209 N. FEDERAL’s unfounded accusations are clearly outside the record and are solely meant to delay, harass, pressure, and extort BB QOZ. 50. 209 N. FEDERAL in its Petition also falsely asserts that it opposed the road abandonment applications immediately at each stage of approval. It was not until CAMALIER, 209 N. FEDERAL, and FDC were advised that BB QOZ was not interested in purcha sing the 209 Property that 209 N. FEDERAL, FDC, and CAMALIER opposed the Project. 51. The true purpose of the Petition and objections stems from BB QOZ’s dec ision to not purchase 209 N. FEDERAL’s Property at an inflated price and thereaf ter taking a page from CAMALIER’s playbook to bring frivolous claims knowing it will delay BB QOZ from moving forward causing it substantial damages, trying to shake them down and force t hem to overpay, make him part of the Project, or pay him money to not protest. This extortiona te behavior cannot be countenanced and is actionable. 52. As a result of 209 N. FEDERAL, FDC, and CAMALIER’s calculated extortionate behavior, tortious interference, abuse of process, bad faith filing and unreasonable conduct, effective April 13, 2023 BB QOZ has been forced to cease all pre-develop ment activity, including advising all the construction and design professionals and consultants involved and e ngaged in the Project that they are not able to advance any plans or work until the Petition for Writ of Certiorari is resolved. 2See City of Boynton Beach Response pg. 2.

When BB QOZ was awarded the Project, it promised the community, potential tenants, and public and elected officials certain expectations regardi ng timeframes for completion. BB QOZ’s forced inability to meet these expectations solely occasioned by the calculated acts of CAMALIER affects its reputation in the very community that it seeks to re develop and revitalize. 54. The Project contains a large amount of commercial space (17,000 square feet). BB QOZ has been contacted by potential tenants, but has been unable to provide any d efinitive timeframes for delivery of the commercial space. There is no way f or BB QOZ to determine the effect this delay will have on the viability of the overall Project from a construction and financing perspective. 55. In addition, BB QOZ secured a line of credit to assist in the financing of the pre- development activity of the Project. Every day the Project is delayed for ces BB QOZ to incur additional interest, costs and expenses that BB QOZ would not have incurred but for 209 N. FEDERAL, FDC, and CAMALIER’s calculated extortionate behavior, tortious inter ference, abuse of process, bad faith and unreasonable conduct. 56. There is no legitimate basis to the challenge that is being made by CAMAL IER, 209 N. FEDERAL, and FDC. At the public, properly noticed, City Commission meet ing, where 209 N. FEDERAL, FDC, and CAMALIER were allowed to present their objections, the City Commission determined, based upon the competent and substantial evidence, that access is not obstructed and voted unanimously to approve the abandonment. BB QOZ, along with its partnership with BB CRA and the City of Boynton Beach, has the right to deve lop and operate the Project.

At the time of the closing Cafe Barista, Inc. (d/b/a Hurricane Alley) was a tenant with an active lease which was assigned to the CRA (Attachment II). Hurricane Alley also has an agreement with BB QOZ, LLC's (aka Affiliated Development, LLC) as part of the mixed-use redevelopment project known as The Pierce (see Attachment III). Hurricane Alley's new location includes 3,000+/- square foot of restaurant space with 1,500+/- square foot mezzanine space within The Pierce project. On August 9, 2022, the CRA Board approved Hurricane Alley's extension to the lease (Attachment IV & V). The current lease terms, as indicated in Attachment V, provided a one- year extension to August 31, 2023, with an administrative additional six-month extension. The administrative six-month extension was entered into on June 15, 2023, with a termination date of February 29, 2024 (Attachment VI). Any further extensions require CRA Board approval. The new location for Hurricane Alley (The Pierce) is currently on hold due to pending litigation which may affects the project's overall timeline. On September 12, 2023, the CRA Board approved a one-year extension, to the Purchase and Development Agreement (between the CRA and BB QOZ, LLC), from the execution of the First Amendment for the Final Judgement to be rendered and 120 days from the Final Judgement to submit construction documents to the City in order to obtain building permits for the project (Attachment VII & VIII). As a result, Hurricane Alley's new restaurant space will not be completed before the expiration of Hurricane Alley's lease on February 29, 2024. Kim Kelly, owner of Hurricane Alley, has requested a one-year lease extension to February 28, 2025, under the same terms and conditions of the current lease (Attachment IX). BB QOZ, LLC was provided with the request for an extension and has approved the request (Attachment X). Attached is a draft extension based on Hurricane Alley's request (see Attachment XI). 500 •Attachment I - Location Map •Attachment II - Assignment and Assumption of Leases •Attachment III - Hurricane Alley Lease Agreement with BB QOZ, LLC (a/k/a Affiliated Development, LLC) •Attachment IV - 8.9.22 Minutes RE Hurricane Alley Lease Extension •Attachment V - Fully Executed 2022 Lease Amendment-Cafe Barista •Attachment VI - Fully Executed 2023 Lease Amendment-Cafe Barista •Attachment VII - 09.12.2023 CRA Meeting Minutes RE Approval of First Amend to BBQOZ P&D Agreement •Attachment VIII - 09.13.2023 First Amendment to Purchase and Development Agreement - Fully Executed •Attachment IX - 12.12.23 Lease Ext. Request - Hurricane Alley •Attachment X - 12.15.23 BBQOZ-Affiliated Approval of Lease Ext. for 1 yr. •Attachment XI - Draft Lease Amendment 2024 current terms & conditions Due to the condition of the building and costs associated with ongoing maintenance, the CRA Board may elect to increase the rent. As a standard practice, a typical annual commercial rent increase would be between 3-5%. The current base rent is $6,477.19. Increases would calculate as follows: 3% = $194.32 monthly 4% = $259.09 monthly 5% = $323.86 monthly Any additional extensions shall be subject to CRA Board approval for any unforeseen circumstances that may arise from current litigation. This will allow Hurricane Alley to remain operating until the land is transferred to BB QOZ, LLC for the development of The Pierce at which time Hurricane Alley's lease will be assigned BB QOZ, LLC. FISCAL IMPACT: To be determined by the Board. CRA PLAN/PROJECT/PROGRAM: 2016 Boynton Beach CRA Redevelopment Plan CRA BOARD OPTIONS: 1. Approve and execute the one-year extension under the same terms and conditions. 2. Approve a one-year extension with an increase to the base rent as determined by the Board. 3. Do not approve an extension to the lease. 4. Provide alternative revisions and/or direction to CRA staff.

Ocean Avenue - TABLED 11/13/2023 SUMMARY: At the June 13, 2023 meeting, the CRA Board approved the First Amendment to the Purchase and Development Agreement between the CRA and 306 NE 6th Avenue, LLC for a six month extension from May 9, 2023 to November 6, 2023, to submit a Major Site Plan application to the City for a container restaurant on a CRA-owned parcel located at 211 E. Ocean Avenue (see Attachments I - II). At the July 11, 2023 meeting, the CRA Board requested a project update at their next available meeting (see Attachment III). An email was sent to Mr. Barber on July 12, 2023, requesting the status on the following (see Attachment IV): 1. Major site plan approval application submission dates and any meetings subsequent to 2. Development costs update (if different than previous) 3. Finance update (if different than previous) 4. Development timeline update On August 8, 2023, CRA staff provided an update to the Board that the development team for 306 NE 6th Avenue, LLC would need to submit a Major Site Plan application to Planning & Zoning by November 6, 2023 (see Attachment V). On October 12, 2023, CRA staff provided a reminder to 306 NE 6th Avenue, LLC of the November 6, 2023 deadline, which was confirmed via email by Mr. Barber (see Attachment VI). A follow-up email and phone call was made on October 16th, providing Mr. Barber additional clarification on the November 6th agenda deadlines and again on October 30, 2023 (see Attachment VII). On October 17, 2023, CRA staff sent an email to the City requesting an update on any meeting requests or site plan applications made by 306 NE 6th Avenue, LLC and City staff responded back that there were no updates or site applications submitted (see Attachment VIII). One final confirmation was provided by City staff on November 6, 2023 that no site applications had been made (see Attachment IX). 612 At the November 13, 2023 meeting, the CRA Board discussed the project status with the representative for 306 NE 6th Avenue, LLC regarding the financing of the project, development timeline and historical designation. At the end of the discussion, the Board made a motion to table the item until the January 2024 Board meeting (see Attachment X). Following the November 13th meeting, staff reached out to 306 NE 6th Avenue requesting an update on the proof of financing. Emails were sent on November 14th, December 7th, December 12th, December 19th, December 29th and January 3rd (see Attachment XI). As of January 11, 2024, the proof of financing has not been provided and CRA legal has provided a draft Letter of Default for the Board's consideration (see Attachment XII). Background: At the March 9, 2022 meeting, the CRA Board approved a Purchase and Development Agreement (Agreement) between the CRA and 306 NE 6th Avenue, LLC for the CRA-owned property located at 211 E. Ocean Avenue. The Agreement outlined the terms and conditions for the redevelopment of the site into a 3,000 square feet full-service restaurant consisting of five shipping containers for the adaptive reuse of the historic Magnuson House. The Agreement was executed on September 18, 2022, after final legal review by both parties (see Attachment XIII). Pursuant to Section 21.a, the developer is required to submit their site plan application to the City's Planning and Development Department by January 17, 2023 (120 days from effective date). CRA staff sent several courtesy reminders to representatives of 306 NE 6th Avenue, LLC regarding the site plan application submittal deadline to Planning and Zoning and the option to submit an extension request if needed (see Attachment XIV). On January 17, 2023, a representative of 306 NE 6th Avenue LLC submitted a permit application to the City's Building Department at 5:49 PM and at 5:55 PM, the permit application was rejected by the City due to an incomplete application (see Attachment XV). As a result, 306 NE 6th Avenue LLC was in default of the Agreement. The development team for 306 NE 6th Avenue, LLC had a pre-application site plan meeting with City and CRA staff on February 1, 2023. At the February 13, 2023 meeting, the Board moved to table the request for an extension to the May 9, 2023 Board meeting, which passed unanimously (see Attachment XVI). On March 15, 2023, CRA staff met with the managing members of 306 NE 6th Avenue LLC to review the site plan application process. The City's Planning & Zoning staff was able to provide further clarification on the site plan application process on March 28th which was forwarded to the development team. CRA staff received an email from Mr. Barber from 306 NE 6th Avenue LLC on April 25, 2023, requesting additional time to work with City staff on the site plan application process. This request was placed on the May 9, 2023 meeting, for the Board's consideration (see Attachment XVII). At the May 9, 2023 meeting, the CRA Board made a motion to extend the deadline to submit a site plan application six months from the May 9th meeting date. Therefore, 306 NE 6th Avenue LLC has until November 6, 2023, to submit the site plan application and as a result all other 613 •Attachment I - Location Map •Attachment II - Fully Executed First Amendment dated July 13, 2023 •Attachment III - July 11, 2023 CRA Board Meeting Minutes •Attachment IV - July 12, 2023 Email to Anthony Barber Requesting Information for August Board Meeting Update •Attachment V - August 8, 2023 CRA Board Meeting Minutes •Attachment VI - October 12, 2023 Email •Attachment VII - October 16 & October 30 Email •Attachment VIII - October 17 & October 18 Email with City Staff •Attachment IX - November 6, 2023 City Staff Email •Attachment X - November 13, 2023 CRA Board Meeting Minutes •Attachment XI - Email Notices •Attachment XII - Draft Notice of Default •Attachment XIII - Fully Executed Purchase and Development Agreement •Attachment XIV - September 2022 - January 2023 Site Plan Application Reminders •Attachment XV - Building Permit Application Information •Attachment XVI - February 13, 2023 CRA Board Meeting Minutes •Attachment XVII - April 25, 2023 Request for Additional time •Attachment XVIII - May 9, 2023 CRA Board Meeting Minutes Approving 6 Month Extension •Attachment XIX - May 12, 2023 Email from City Staff deadlines outlined in the development agreement would automatically be adjusted by the six month extension (see Attachment XVIII).

The documents submitted on 1/17/23 at 5:49 PM rejected on 1/17/23 at 5:55 PM. An email was sent to Anthony to notify him. This is out of compliance with our agreement and unfortunately will need to go to the Board as this exceeds staff’s authority. We will be scheduling this for the February 13, 2023 CRA Board meeting for direction. We will send you the agenda item once it is finalized and published on the web on February 6, 2023.

Ms. Julia Chip, building architect, introduced other team members and she asked for a 90-day extension for submittal on April 5. She said the documents referenced are on the drive and located in the signed documents folders. She noted this is the first request for an extension for site plan submittal. Board Member Hay asked if the Staff have seen the documents. Ms. Shutt confirmed that Staff has not seen the documents. Mr. Anthony Barber explained why the project was delayed. He stated he was given the wrong information on what was needed to be submitted to the City. Mr. Aaron Taylor, planning consultant, said they are happy to move forward but the first round of comments will tell them what they are dealing with. Ms. Duhy recommended how to handle an extension so they can avoid multiple amendments. Mr. Allen Hendricks stated he wanted to ensure all Board members he understood the site development. Board Member Kelley expressed her concern with all the extensions that are taking place in the City. She inquired when will the Board see the site plan. Mr. Barber responded that they could be ready for March yet would be more comfortable with April to bring the project to the City. Board Member Kelley commented that she will speak with Staff to understand why there are so many delays. Board Member Turkin stated that he is fine with the 90-day extension. Chair Penserga opened Public Comments. No one coming forward Chair Penserga closed the Public Comments. Motion Board Member Turkin moved to table extension to the May meeting.

It would typically take two to three months once we receive the complete application, drawings, and documents. The Historic Resources Preservation Board (HRPB) is the decision body for the Certificate of Appropriateness.

Therefore, the project is subject to review of a Major Site Plan Modification application, which can typically take four to six months. The application flow chart is attached to this email for reference.

Ocean Avenue Minor Site Plan Modification Follow up Hi Amanda, A few more questions for you: 1. If they are doing what is shown on pre‐app, is this a minor site plan modification? Not sure if container concept can be treated the same way as other building types. I thought we were going to use this as a test case. Not sure if anything has changed since pre‐app. If they are proposing metal structures then a CDPA is required as metal structures are not permitted by right. If a CDPA is required then the project will be processed as a ‘major’. If they choose to use an approved building material then a CDPA would not be required and the project may be processed as a ‘minor’ (as long as other relief is not required). 4. What is a CDPA?

Ocean Avenue Minor Site Plan Modification Follow up Just a quick follow up per our meeting this morning. We met with Anthony Barber and Rodney Mayo (306 NE 6th Avenue LLC) yesterday on the project to go over the timeline and action items their team will need to be able to report back to the CRA Board at the May 8th CRA meeting. Anthony indicated that their consultant has a different understanding of the requirements for the zoning approvals than what was discussed at our previous pre‐application meetings. He indicated that they would need a major site plan modification with a large checklist of documents to be submitted. Please confirm and provide the following so we can forward this information to their team (and monitor their progress for compliance with the PDA or Board directions): 1. A minor site plan modification application will be required to be submitted for the container restaurant use vs. a major site plan approval for a “relief application” – If they are keeping the historic structure, this would be a minor? A Relief Application (Community Design Appeal) would be needed for any portions of the applicable Chapter 4 regulations that are not (or cannot) be met. This would be for standards like using metal buildings, not meeting the build to line, and/or not meeting any architectural standard. A relief application requires this project be processed as “major”. 707 4 2. Please clarify relief application vs. historic designation removal (is this one in the same?) This is not the same. The request to removal the Historic Designation will require this project go to the HRP Board. This will simply add a step in the approval process. 3. A certificate of appropriateness or removal of the historical designation application may be submitted and reviewed concurrently with the minor site plan modifications as indicated by both Mike Rumpf in the CRA minutes and Jae’s email on 2/2/23 Yes. This request can go concurrently or ahead of the site plan. 4. A checklist of what would be required for this application. Specifically, there were items (e.g. traffic report, etc.) on the published checklist with a bullet that showed the documents “may” be required. This could make a difference with the consultants’ fees. No SCAD Approval is needed Sound analysis and visual impact analysis can be responded to via a narrative reviewing how each is addressed in the site plan A Historic Preservation Statement will be required. A CDPA would also require a justification statement addressing the review criteria. 5. An estimated timeline for site plan approval/historic designation removal/cert. of appropriateness and the next couple of dates for DART application submission. The process can take from 3‐6 months and would include DART, HRPB, P&D, Commission. For this scale of a project I would estimate 3‐4 months, depending on the quality of the submittal and how quickly the applicant can turn around comments. The first Wednesday of every month are the DART deadlines, however we accept applications at all times. This information would help us make recommendations to the Board. Thank you.

SUMMARY 1.1. Summary The City is seeking shared public sector transit services that offer dynamically allocated routes and schedules in response to individual or aggregate consumer demand, using smaller vehicles and capitalizing on mobile GPS and internet connectivity. The City has successfully funded the operation of a micro-transit service in the downtown and A1A corridor for the last 4 years. The micro transit services have been well accepted with increasing ridership. The Current contract is set to expire and would like the opportunity to solicit new proposals that would complement a new community shuttle service as well as expansion of the service to other areas of the City, especially west of I-95. The goal of the micro-transit service will be to transition paratransit customers by transporting them in a less expensive manner to a fixed route transfer point and/or address areas in the City with high concentrations of older and low-income residents who need access to transit. Any rider fees will be determined by the City and 100% of all net proceeds from fees generated by riders will be returned to the City in the form of a credit to each monthly invoice. The City has the right to audit the Contractor’s collection of fees. The successful Vendor/Contractor will have demonstrated demand response experience particularly in areas with no existing service. The Contractor will own or have access to a fleet of environmentally friendly and sustainable vehicles that include fully accessible minibuses with capacity between 12 and 28 passengers. Vehicles should be small enough for energy efficiency, but large enough to handle occasional larger demands (schools, employment centers, transfer stations). Smaller low speed electric vehicles may be used on smaller streets and more acceptable neighborhoods. The strategic objective of this initiative is to identify and implement a sustainable micro -transit system that moves people to and from their destination. Another strategic objective is that over time this program will transition to being fully supported by the business community in Hollywood, Hollywood Beach, and the surrounding area. 1.2. Background Currently the City plans to operate a Community Shuttle System with three fixed routes (Northwest Loop - City Hall to N. Beach Park, A1A Loop - N. Beach Park to E Hallandale Blvd. and a Southeast Loop - City Hall to Pembroke Rd.) The fixed route system is expected to be operational by mid-2023 and will provide public transportation service to improve mobility, and ease parking demand and traffic congestion. This service is funded by Broward County Transit. In addition, there are Broward County buses, routes #1, 4, 7, 9 and US1 Breeze, providing services on a daily basis. 1.3.

All such requests for clarification shall be made in writing and the person submitting the request will be responsible for its prompt delivery. Any interpretation of the SOLICITATION, if made, will be made only by Addendum duly issued. A copy of such Addendum will be made available to each person receiving a Solicitation.

Any objection to the specifications and requirements as set forth in this SOLICITATION must be filed in writing with the Chief Procurement Officer on or before the date specified for a request for clarification. 7.12. COMPETENCY OF PROPOSERS Pre-award inspection of the Proposer’s facility may be made prior to the award of a contract. Bids/proposals will be considered only from firms which are regularly engaged in the business of providing the goods and/or services as described in this SOLICITATION(s); have a record of performance for a reasonable period of time; and have sufficient financial support, equipment and organization to ensure that they can satisfactorily deliver the material and/or services if awarded a Contract under the terms and conditions herein stated. The terms "equipment and organization" as used herein shall be construed to mean a fully equipped and well established company in line with the best business practices in the industry and as determined by the proper authorities of the City. The City may consider any evidence available to it of the financial, technical and other qualifications and abilities of a proposer, including past performance (experience) in making the award in the best interest of the City. In all cases the City of Hollywood shall have no liability to any proposer for any costs or expense incurred in connection with this SOLICITATION or otherwise. 7.13. QUALIFICATIONS OF PROPOSERS No Bid/proposal will be accepted from, nor will any contract be awarded to any person who is in arrears to the City upon any debt or contract, or who is a defaulter, as surety or otherwise, upon any obligation to City, or who is deemed responsible or unreliable by the City. As part of the bid/proposal evaluation process, City may conduct a background investigation including a record check by the Hollywood Police Department. Proposer’s submission of a bid/proposal constitutes acknowledgment of the process and consent to such investigation. City shall be the sole judge in determining a Proposer’s qualifications.

CONSIDERATION OF BIDS/PROPOSALS In cases where an item requested is identified by a manufacturer's name, trade name, catalog number, or reference, it is understood that the Vendor proposes to furnish the item so identified and does not propose to furnish an "equal" unless the proposed "equal" is pre-approved by the City. References to any of the above are intended to be descriptive but not restrictive and only indicate articles that will be satisfactory. A bid/proposal of an "equal" will be considered, provided that the Vendor states in his bid/proposal exactly what he proposes to furnish, including sample, illustration, or other descriptive matter which will clearly indicate the character of the article covered by such bid/proposal. The designated City representative hereby reserves the right to approve as an “equal”, or to reject as not being an “equal”, any article proposed which contains major or minor variations from specifications requirements. 7.15. AWARD OF CONTRACT If the Contract is to be awarded, it will be awarded, after evaluation by the City, to the responsible and responsive Proposer whom the City determines will be in the best interests of the City and not necessarily to the lowest cost Proposer. Proposers may be invited to an oral interview before the committee. A short list of finalists will be determined and presented to either the City Manager or his/her designee or to the City Commission, in accordance with the applicable City of Hollywood Code of Ordinances, and will make the final ranking for the purposes of negotiating a contract with the top ranked firm. The successful Proposer shall be required to sign a negotiated contract; the refusal or failure of a successful Proposer to execute a contract which contains the mandatory material terms and conditions contained in the SOLICITATION, shall be grounds for deeming the Proposer and/or the Proposer’s bid/proposal non-responsive. If applicable, the Proposer to whom award is made shall execute a written contract prior to award by the City Commission. If the Proposer to whom the first award is made fails to enter into a contract as herein provided, the Contract may be let to the next highest ranked Proposer who is responsible and responsive in the opinion of the City. 7.16. BASIS FOR AWARD, EVALUATION CRITERIA AND QUESTIONS The qualification of bid/proposal responders on this project will be considered in making the award. The City is not obligated to accept any bid/proposal if deemed not in the best interest of the City to do so. The City shall make award to a qualified proposer based on fees submitted and responses to this SOLICITATION. Failure to include in the bid/proposal all information outlined herein may be cause for rejection of the bid/proposal. The City reserves the right to accept or reject any and all bids/proposals, in whole or in part, as determined to be in the best interest of the City in its sole discretion. The City reserves the right to waive any informalities or irregularities in bids/proposals. The City reserves the right to negotiate separately the terms and conditions or all or any part of the bids/proposals as deemed to be in the City’s best interest in its sole discretion.

The final award of a contract is subject to approval by the City Commission. 7.17. AGREEMENT An agreement shall be sent to the awarded proposer to be signed, witnessed, and returned to the City for execution. The City will provide a copy of the fully executed agreement to the awarded proposer. 7.18. NOTICE TO PROCEED A signed purchase order, blanket purchase order or fully executed agreement will be the Proposer's authorization to proceed and may substitute for a "Notice to Proceed" form. 7.19. BID PROTESTS The City shall provide notice of its intent to award or reject to all proposers by posting such notice on the City’s website. After a notice of intent to award a contract is posted, any actual or prospective proposer who is aggrieved in connection with the pending award of the contract or any element of the process leading to the award of the contract may protest to the Director of Procurement Services. A protest must be filed within five business days after posting or any right to protest is forfeited. The protest must be in writing, must identify the name and address of the protester, and must include a factual summary of, and the basis for, the protest. Filing shall be considered complete when the protest, including a deposit, is received by the Procurement Services Division. Failure to file a protest within the time-frame specified herein shall constitute a full waiver of all rights to protest the City’s decision regarding the award. The written protest shall state in detail the specific facts and law or ordinance upon which the protest of the proposed award is based, and shall include all pertinent documents. A written protest may not challenge the relative weight of evaluation criteria or a formula for assigning points. Upon receipt of a formal written protest, the City shall stop award proceedings until resolution of the protest; unless it has been determined that the award of the contract without delay is necessary to protect substantial interests of the City. Any and all costs incurred by a protesting party in connection with a bid protest shall be the sole responsibility of the protesting party. Upon receipt of a protest of the pending award of a contract, a copy of the protest shall promptly be forwarded to the City Attorney. The City Attorney shall thereupon review the charge to determine its sufficiency, including whether the protest was timely filed. If upon review the City Attorney determines that the charge is insufficient, the City Attorney may issue a summary dismissal of the protest. If upon review the City Attorney determines that the charge is sufficient, a hearing of the protest committee shall be scheduled.

The committee shall consist of three members appointed by the City Manager. The committee’s review shall be informal. If the protest committee determines that the pending award of a contract or any element of the process leading to the award involved a significant violation of law or applicable rule or regulation, all steps necessary and proper to correct the violation shall be taken. If the committee determines that the protest is without merit, The Director shall promptly issue a decision in writing stating the reason for the decision and furnish a copy to the protester and any other interested party, and the process leading to the award shall proceed. 7.20. PREPARATION OF BIDS/PROPOSALS Bids/proposals shall be prepared in accordance with the bid/proposal response format. Bids/proposals not complying with this format may be considered non-responsive and may be removed from consideration on this basis. Requirements for Signing Bid/Proposal: A.

The bid/proposal must be signed in ink by an individual authorized to legally bind the person, partnership, company, or corporation submitting the bid/proposal. C.

Chapter 119 or as otherwise provided by law. C. Ensure that public records that are exempt or confidential and exempt from public records disclosure requirements are not disclosed except as authorized by law. D. Meet all requirements for retaining public records and transfer, at no cost, to the public agency, all public records in possession of the proposer upon termination of the contract and destroy any duplicate public records that are exempt or confidential and exempt from public records disclosure requirements. All records stored electronically must be provided to the public agency in a format that is compatible with the information technology systems of the public agency. Public records may be inspected and examined by anyone desiring to do so, at a reasonable time, under reasonable conditions, and under supervision by the custodian of the public record. Sealed Bids/proposals become subject to the public records disclosure requirements of F.S. Chapter 119, notwithstanding a proposers' request to the contrary, at the time the City provides notice of a decision or intended decision, or 30 days after the bid/proposal opening, whichever is earlier. Financial statements submitted in response to a request by the City may be confidential and exempt from disclosure. Data processing software obtained under a licensing agreement which prohibits its disclosure may also exempt. Proposers are hereby notified and agree that all information submitted as part of, or in support of SOLICITATION submittals will be available for public inspection after opening of SOLICITATION in compliance with Chapter 119 of the Florida Statutes.

If, within twenty-four (24) hours after bids/proposals are opened, any Proposer files a duly signed written notice with the City and within five (5) calendar days thereafter demonstrates to the reasonable satisfaction of the City by clear and convincing evidence that there was a material and substantial mistake in the preparation of its bid/proposal, or that the mistake is clearly evident on the face of the bid/proposal but the intended correct bid/proposal is not similarly evident, then the Proposer may withdraw its bid/proposal and the bid/proposal Security will be returned. 7.26.

The provisions of this Article are supplemental to, not in lieu of, all applicable laws with respect to conflict of interest. In the event there is a difference between the standards applicable under this Agreement and those provided by statute, the stricter standard shall apply. In the event the Proposer has no prior knowledge of a conflict of interest as set forth above and acquires information which may indicate that there may be an actual or apparent violation of any of the above, the Proposer shall promptly bring such information to the attention of the City's Project Manager. The Proposer shall thereafter cooperate with the City's review and investigation of such information, and comply with the instructions the Proposer receives from the Project Manager in regard to remedying the situation. 7.39.

Except as such remedies may be limited or waived elsewhere in the Agreement, the Proposer reserves the right to pursue any remedies available under law after exhausting the provisions of this Article. 7.59. MUTUAL OBLIGATIONS This Agreement, including attachments and appendices to the Agreement, shall constitute the entire Agreement between the parties with respect hereto and supersedes all previous communications and representations or agreements, whether written or oral, with respect to the subject matter hereof unless acknowledged in writing by the duly authorized representatives of both parties. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed for the benefit, intended or otherwise, of any third party that is not a parent or subsidiary of a party or otherwise related (by virtue of ownership control or statutory control) to a party. In those situations where this Agreement imposes an indemnity or defense obligation on the Proposer, the City may, at its expense, elect to participate in the defense if the City should so choose. Furthermore, the City may at its own expense defend or settle any such claims if the Proposer fails to diligently defend such claims, and thereafter seek indemnity for costs and attorney’s fees from the Proposer. 7.60. SUBCONTRACTUAL RELATIONS If the Proposer will cause any part of this Agreement to be performed by a subproposer, the provisions of this Contract will apply to such subproposer and its officers, agents and employees in all respects as if it and they were employees of the Proposer; and the Proposer will not be in any manner thereby discharged from its obligations and liabilities hereunder, but will be liable hereunder for all acts and negligence of the subproposer, its officers, agents, and employees, as if they were employees of the Proposer. The services performed by the subproposer will be subject to the provisions hereof as if performed directly by the Proposer. The Proposer, before making any subcontract for any portion of the services, will state in writing to the City the name of the proposed subproposer, the portion of the services which the subproposer is to do, the place of business of such subproposer, and such other information as the City may require. The City will have the right to require the Proposer not to award any subcontract to a person, firm or corporation disapproved by the City. Before entering into any subcontract hereunder, the Proposer will inform the subproposer fully and completely of all provisions and requirements of this Agreement relating either directly or DocuSign Envelope ID: A73E92FE-4553-4C12-85E7-6F731BFDB358DocuSign Envelope ID: C86825A3-7E8A-4F18-8CB1-9F7A4E6B8171DocuSign Envelope ID: E34F499C-9569-48EE-A135-C12D464571D1 775 39 indirectly to the services to be performed.

In order to qualify as a subproposer satisfactory to the City, in addition to the other requirements herein provided, the subproposer must be prepared to prove to the satisfaction of the City that it has the necessary facilities, skill and experience, and ample financial resources to perform the services in a satisfactory manner. To be considered skilled and experienced, the subproposer must show to the satisfaction of the City that it has satisfactorily performed services of the same general type which are required to be performed under this Agreement. The City shall have the right to withdraw its consent to a subcontract if it appears to the City that the subcontract will delay, prevent, or otherwise impair the performance of the Proposer's obligations under this Agreement. All subproposers are required to protect the confidentiality of the City and City's proprietary and confidential information. The Proposer shall furnish to the City copies of all subcontracts between the Proposer and subproposers and suppliers hereunder. Within each such subcontract, there shall be a clause for the benefit of the City permitting the City to request completion of performance by the subproposer of its obligations under the subcontract, in the event the City finds the Proposer in breach of its obligations, and the option to pay the subproposer directly for the performance by such subproposer. The foregoing shall neither convey nor imply any obligation or liability on the part of the City to any subproposer hereunder as more fully described herein. 7.61.

If the proposer receives less than full payment, then the proposer shall be required to disburse only the funds received on a pro rata basis to the subproposers and materials Suppliers, each receiving a prorated portion based on the amount due on the payment. If the proposer without reasonable cause fails to make payments required by this section to subproposers and material suppliers within fifteen (15) working days after the receipt by the proposer of full or partial payment, the proposer shall pay to the subproposers and material suppliers a penalty in the amount of one percent (1%) of the amount due, per month, from the expiration of the period allowed herein for payment. Such penalty shall be in addition to actual payments owed. Retainage is also subject to the prompt payment requirement and must be returned to the subproposer or material supplier whose work has been completed, even if the prime contract has not been completed.

Approach and Methodology In 2019, Circuit and the City of Hollywood crafted one of the most advanced Neighborhood Electric Vehicle NEV shuttle services that had ever been deployed in Florida. Circuit is very pleased to provide our plan to the City of Hollywood in its endeavor for the next generation of transportation access in Hollywood. Circuit is eager to continue to operate the Hollywood Sun Shuttle as an active, engaged and embedded partner of the City and business communities. We are very excited to evolve the current Sun Shuttle service and match the needs of the RFP. We understand that the City wants to offer dynamic allocated routes and schedules to match consumer demand and support the upcoming fixed route community shuttle services. Over the last four years, Circuit and the City of Hollywood have worked in partnership to provide residents and visitors with a micro-transit mobility offering that is effective, sustainable, supports the local business community and provides a fun experience for riders. We look forward to the next iteration of transportation offerings in Hollywood, and hope that with our carefully crafted service operations plan, we will continue to work in partnership to support the City's transportation goals for its residents and visitors. The team at Circuit is incredibly proud of the work it’s accomplished with the City of Hollywood over the past 4 years.“Sun Shuttle Exceeds City’s Expectations” Hollywood Gazette) was in the headline of an article a few months after the service started and the service, team and technologies have continued to improve ever since. Not only is the Sun Shuttle exceeding the City’s expectations, together we’ve crafted a service that is exceeding the performance of nearly every other On-Demand service in the country. Since starting, other new vendors have come about and new technologies have been introduced, but when comparing ridership, ridership per vehicle hour, rider feedback and the cost per rider, there are few, if any services, run by other operators that have been able to achieve the demand and performance that we have in Hollywood. We’re committed to the City and committed to improving the Sun Shuttle for years to come. B1.1 Service Planning, Research and Analysis We've spoken with our Managers, Supervisors and Driver Ambassadors, surveyed riders, analyzed our historical data, and are confident that we can continue to deliver, and improve upon, a successful mobility option for the residents, visitors and community members of the City of Hollywood as we have since 2019. With 12 years, 190 vehicles, 9 states and 24 cities of operations, Circuit brings its national experience and network to the benefit of each City it works with. Our roots are in South Florida and specifically Broward and Palm Beach counties, where we have operated since 2011. Based on RFP Exhibits A and B, and the desire to operate three separate micro-transit zones, we have designed a service that is supportive of the City's goals, will continue to partner with the business community, is user friendly for the residents and visitors and complementary to the City's upcoming fixed-route community shuttles.

If selected for the RFP we hope to leverage the information from this pilot to better inform the structure of future MTZ Zone 3 services. B1.1.2 Local Research, Current Hollywood Sun Shuttle, and Discovery After reviewing the details of the RFP, we immediately began our planning and analysis process. Fortunately, with four years of operating experience in Hollywood, FL, we were able to leverage feedback from our existing riders, driver ambassadors and the local business community, our review of the RFP and the Counties transportation systems, and use historical data from our Circuit on-demand rider and driver applications as well as our growing and evolving data reporting dashboard, to inform what we believe are the best options for the community within the parameters of the RFP.

We hit the streets, spoke with Driver Ambassadors, rode along with our riders, and reviewed rider feedback from our application and our rider surveys: Feedback from our drivers ●We are the “tour guides” for the city! Our Driver Ambassadors know Hollywood, and we help bring people back to Hollywood. The resorts, hotels, businesses, all rely on us to help drive business. ●Residents would like us to expand to additional areas, including areas further West. ●More Circuit cars on the road- leading to faster pick up times and less delays! ●There are four major categories of people who use this service. ○Senior population 65 relies on Circuit to get to the grocery store, post office, pharmacy. Some do not have cars and are on fixed incomes. They need Circuit more than ever, we have developed trust with many Hollywood seniors, and they’ve come to rely on the service. For some, it is a necessity for them. ○Tourists and visitors often say “I wish I had this in our city! Many report to us that they love using the service; knowing Circuit is there gives visitors a peace of mind, that is why they love coming back to Hollywood and exploring the Downtown area. ○Residents and commuters who use Circuit to get to work every day. ○Local residents use us to get to the beach and businesses downtown as a hassle and drive-free option. Feedback from riders ●“Keep Circuit going. Your drivers are very nice. Circuit is much needed and much appreciated.” ●“Circuit prevents a lot of DUIs, accidents, and potential loss of life.” ●“Circuit is one of the things that makes Hollywood great 👍” ●“I enjoy Circuit. I love it when it's a nice day to just sit and relax while someone else drives.” ●“Circuit is great, I love having the windows-down, casual transportation option.” ●“With Circuit, I never have to worry about sitting in traffic with my car. I take it to/from my home to downtown and the restaurants at the Boardwalk, all while helping the environment- no gas! I love it!” ●“Circuit is a blessing for me. I don’t have a car and I’m handicapped, so I’m limited in my ability to walk distances. Circuit allows me to go grocery shopping, run errands, and even go to the beach. Im super grateful- we need more Circuit everywhere- protect our earth from car pollution and continue to offer low cost rides. Thank you.” Feedback from local business community ●“Circuit is a great addition to the community helping locals and tourists safely move around the city in an eco friendly manner.

Thank you for your amazing services and helping our community!” Billy’s Stone Crab ●"We are very pleased with the results of our marketing efforts with Circuit. The combination of a wrapped vehicle along with conscientious coupon distribution by the drivers has been very effective for Rita's of Hollywood."
