[00:01:26] Thank you very much, Executive Director, CRA Board. [00:01:29] This is a request for approval of Main Street Landings Development Agreement Addendum number one. [00:01:35] On November 10, 2015, Community Development Agency entered into a development agreement with Main Street Landings LOP to complete the project. [00:01:43] Language in the agreement provided for delays in performance due to events to force majeure. [00:01:49] The developer has regularly kept the city abreast of the projects. [00:01:54] They've kept us fully informed every step of the way. [00:01:58] As part of those progress reports, the developer notified the city of a labor shortage for concrete block and exterior stucco contractors,

Main Street Landings Agreement Addendum
approvedThe CRA approved an addendum to the Main Street Landings Development Agreement extending the duration by 120 days (until September 10, 2019) due to labor availability issues stemming from competing Tampa development. The developer has insured the project for $20 million and a $5 million upfront performance bond is still held by the city. The addendum also clarifies the distinction between certificate of occupancy and certificate of completion.

[00:02:07] which delayed performance by the developer in excess of 164 days. [00:02:13] A lot had to do with a lot of the development that was happening in downtown Tampa. [00:02:17] They had a really, really difficult time getting, you know, the lab labor force, a much higher skilled labor force, given the size of that project. [00:02:26] You've seen it and had a hard time getting those laborers up here because of the demand down in Tampa. [00:02:32] As a result, the developers requested that the duration of the agreement be extended for 120 days due to the labor unavailability. [00:02:42] The developer has made excellent progress and fully expects to complete the project. [00:02:46] The developer has insured the project for $20 million. [00:02:51] It's a lot more expensive than he originally anticipated. [00:02:54] And I just can't say enough about Ken and Linda McGurn in terms of efforts to try to really complete that project. [00:03:00] It's truly a beautiful building. [00:03:03] The developer is currently in the process of developing a website for Main Street Landings [00:03:08] and is preparing to advertise availability of residential commercial projects. [00:03:13] Also, the agreement calls for further clarification of the distinction between certificate of occupancy and certificate of completion. [00:03:24] And so this is a request. [00:03:29] I should also add the fact that we are still sitting on a $5 million upfront payment that they provided. [00:03:36] And so that's still sitting out there in the form of a performance bond. [00:03:40] So the request is for approval for Main Street Landings Development Agreement addendum that would last until September 10th, 2019. [00:03:49] So it's 120 additional days. [00:03:52] Mr. McGurn did forward to me what I call a Gantt chart, which is all the tasks in that. [00:03:58] It looks by May, which is that deadline, they're going to be substantially complete the project. [00:04:03] A lot of the final work seems to be on Tower 3, the top floor there, and a lot of punch out stuff. [00:04:08] So they're just as working as hard as anybody else to try to get that project to bring it to fruition. [00:04:15] Thank you. I'll open it up for public comment. [00:04:18] Seeing no one coming forward, you didn't catch that the last time. [00:04:24] OK. Yeah. Seeing no one coming forward, I'll bring it back to the CRA. [00:04:32] Move for approval. Second. [00:04:34] We have a motion and a second to the maker. [00:04:36] Nothing. I've been watching people work there every day. [00:04:39] To the second. No, nothing. [00:04:41] Mr. Altman, I am thrilled to death to see that finally coming close to an end, [00:04:50] since I drive by it at least a couple of times every day. [00:04:56] All those in favor, please signify by saying aye. [00:04:59] Aye. Opposed, like sign. [00:05:01] Motion passes.
