Title
RESOLUTION - APPROVING LICENSE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF MARGATE AND THE MARGATE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY FOR DEBRIS STAGING.
Body
BACKGROUND: On September 24, 2019, the MCRA Board passed resolution 609 ratifying and approving a license agreement with the City of Margate for the use of MCRA property for debris staging through December 31, 2019. (The License Agreement was initially signed on August 29, 2019 on an emergency basis due to the impending approach of Hurricane Dorian.) The purpose of this item is to approve a similar license agreement prior to the upcoming hurricane season, for a term ending December 31, 2020 unless extended by the MCRA. The MCRA approved this Agreement at their May 13, 2020 Board Meeting.
The agreement allows for use of two vacant MCRA parcels to be utilized by the City for debris staging:
• Parcel 1 - property on the east side of State Road 7 & Margate Boulevard
• Parcel 2 - property at the northwest intersection of State Road 7 & Margate Boulevard
Parcel 2 is to be used by the City as the primary staging site and the agreement allows for the City to stage construction and demolition debris on the concreted area with vegetative debris allowed on the grassy areas of the parcel. Parcel 1 is to be used only as a secondary site and only for the staging of vegetative debris.
The reason for the separation in staging is to insure no debris is placed on either parcel in a method that could be environmentally detrimental so as to not violate any provisions of the current Developer Agreement between the MCRA and New Urban Communities, LLC.
The Agreement requires that the City will return the property to its pre-use condition if it is required for debris staging.
RECOMMENDATION: Approval
FISCAL IMPACT: None
