In accordance with the OMNI CRA's 2019 Redevelopment Plan ("Plan") and Chapter 163, Florida Statutes, the Board will consider funding an amount not to exceed One Million, Seven Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($1,700,000.00) to EWB Holdings, LLC, a Florida limited Liability Company, and owner of the property, identified by folio number 01-3125-048-1160 located at 1695 North West 1st Court, Miami, Florida, to underwrite the expenditures and costs associated with the construction of a multi-generational family-centered duplex affordable housing project within the OMNI CRA's Redevelopment Area, contingent upon the substantial completion, defined as eighty percent (80%) completion, of the mixed-income development project located at 1433
Northwest 1st Court, Miami, Florida and 1435 Northwest 1st Court, Miami,
Florida, previously approved pursuant to CRA Resolution No. CRA-R-25-0029. The project will consist of the development of two (2) five (5) bedroom
affordable housing units for moderate-income residents whose annual income is equal to or less than seventy percent (70%) of the Area Median Income ("AMI") for Miami-Dade County, as published annually by the United Stated
