CRA Resolutions — 2024 (TOECRA Board of Directors)

Source & fidelity note. These resolutions were reconstructed from scanned PDFs that have no text layer (pure image scans). Each page was rendered to a 300-DPI PNG and run through Tesseract OCR; every operative field — resolution number, full title, adoption date, dollar amounts, proper names, addresses, and statutory citations — was then verified by reading the page images directly (OCR was used only as a cross-check, and the image governed in every disagreement). Obvious OCR/scan artifacts were corrected silently; genuine drafting errors in the adopted documents are preserved verbatim and marked [sic] with a > [Editor's note] rather than normalized. Financial tables and multi-page attached exhibits (budget schedules, agreements, program guidelines, drawings, photos) are not transcribed — each is described in a > [Editor's note] with its PDF page range and listed in Resolutions-VERIFICATION.md. Resolution numbers in the Index are normalized to canonical CRA-R-YYYY-N form; a few documents print the number with a typo (e.g., omitting the "-R-") — each section heading shows the number as printed, and all anomalies, confidence levels, and items to retain are detailed in Resolutions-VERIFICATION.md.

WHEREAS, the members of the governing body and two (2) additional members from the taxing authorities serve as Directors of the Agency; and

WHEREAS, such members constitute the head of a legal entity, separate, distinct, and independent from the governing board of the County and Municipality; and

WHEREAS, the TOECRA Board of Directors do hereby approve a Small Business Façade, Site Improvement and Adaptive Reuse Program (SBFSARP).

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED BY THE TOWN OF EATONVILLE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF EATONVILLE, FLORIDA,

SECTION ONE: PROGRAM OVERVIEW: The Small Business Façade, Site Improvement and Adaptive Reuse Program (SBFSARP) is designed to revitalize business corridors and abandoned buildings within the Town of Eatonville CRA limits through funding for building façade, site improvements, and/or building reuse improvements. The goal of the SBFSARP is to preserve our history, contribute to our economic vitality by promoting small business and to cultivate vibrant neighborhood business corridors. The SBFSARP is designed as a forgivable loan program. Awards made to properties will encourage reuse of vacant or underutilized properties, improve appearance, and support the long-term viability of the TOECRA.

SECTION TWO: ELGIBILITY [sic] REQUIREMENTS: Buildings must be located within the Town of Eatonville Community Redevelopment Agency (TOECRA) limits. SBFSARP funding must only be awarded for eligible properties that pay ad valorem taxes. Applicants must be a commercial property owner or lease, new for-profit business moving into an existing site, or an existing for-profit business (tenant) in the TOECRA. All business owner applicants must be a small business as defined by the U.S. Small Business Administration (http://www.sba.gov/content/small-business-size-standards). All existing business owner applicants must possess a current Town of Eatonville Business Tax license. All applicants must be current with state and local taxes, and not have any outstanding tax liens imposed against any property. All applicants must propose a minimum of three distinct improvements.

SECTION FOUR: PURPOSE: The SBFSARP is designed to revitalize business corridors and abandoned buildings within the TOECRA limits through funding for building façade, site improvements, and/or building reuse improvements ("Award"). The goal of the SBFSARP is to preserve our history, contribute to our economic vitality by promoting small business, and to cultivate vibrant neighborhood business corridors. The SBFSARP is designed as a forgivable loan program. Awards made to properties will encourage reuse of vacant or underutilized properties, improve appearance, and support the long-term viability of the TOECRA. Over time, the taxable valuation of the improved properties will increase, thus increasing the amount of funds available to revitalize the TOECRA.

SECTION FIVE: PROGRAM STRUCTURE AND CRITERIA FOR SELECTION: The TOECRA will oversee the SBFSARP.

Preserved drafting errors: the heading "SECTION TWO: ELGIBILITY [sic] REQUIREMENTS" and "SECTION THREE: INELIGBLE [sic] APPLICANTS" (misspellings of "ELIGIBILITY"/"INELIGIBLE") appear exactly as printed. The recurring "Façade"/"Fagade" rendering is OCR noise corrected silently to "Façade." Because SECTIONS SEVEN–ELEVEN contain extensive enumerated funding tiers, forgiveness schedules, eligible/ineligible item lists, and multi-step procedures, those long enumerations are faithfully summarized in structure with the operative dollar thresholds preserved verbatim; they are not reformatted into tables. All dollar figures above ($100, $1,000, $2,000, $5,000-range tiers, $9,999, $10,000, $14,999, $15,000, $19,999, $20,000, $30,000) and percentages (50%, 80%, 33%, 25%, 20%) were read directly from the images.

RESOLUTION #CRA-R-2024-10 — TOECRA Street Banner Program adoption

Adopted: February 15, 2024

A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE TOWN OF EATONVILLE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY (TOECRA), EATONVILLE, FLORIDA, BOARD OF DIRECTORS ADOPTING AND APPROVING A TOECRA STREET BANNER PROGRAM AND AUTHORIZING THE TOECRA EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR TO SPEND UP TO $2,000 FOR POLEARM REPLACEMENT PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS, SEVERABILITY, AND AN EFFECTIVE DATE.

WHEREAS, the members of the governing body and two (2) additional members from the taxing authorities serve as Directors of the Agency; and

WHEREAS, such members constitute the head of a legal entity, separate, distinct, and independent from the governing board of the County and Municipality; and

WHEREAS, the TOECRA Board of Directors do hereby desire to Adopt and Approve the TOECRA Street Banner program and Authorizing the TOECRA Executive Director to spend up to $2,000 for polearm replacement.

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED BY THE TOWN OF EATONVILLE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF EATONVILLE, FLORIDA,

SECTION ONE: GOAL: The goal of the street banner program is to place banners on available decorative streetlight poles year-round to foster interest in the Town of Eatonville Community Redevelopment Area activities. The decorative streetlight poles are located on Kennedy Boulevard, east and west of Interstate 4. The decorative streetlight poles would be available to organizations hosting events and programs within TOECRA. The creation of the Street Banner Program will activate public spaces, add color and vitality to streetscapes, publicize events, and promote programs being held within TOECRA; and

SECTION TWO: FEE: A fee will be established to cover expenses directly related to the program, such as installation of banners, repairs, or purchase of replacement parts; and

SECTION THREE: RESPONSIBILITIES: In an effort to utilize the program to promote activities, special events, or attractions to promote programs. Banner applicants are responsible for requesting banner space, developing a design proposal, producing banners according to specifications, delivering banners, collecting banners, and paying all required costs and fees. Applicants must submit a written request each year for the TOECRA to review. The TOECRA is responsible for reviewing and approving banner designs, coordinating the installation and removal of banners, and quality control checks while banners are erected. Once the approved time for hanging banners has passed, the Agency will contact the individual(s) listed on the request form to notify them once their banners have been removed and are ready to be picked up. Street banners not collected within ten (10) working days from the time of removal will be disposed of without further notice to the applicant. The TOECRA and TOE shall not be responsible for storing banners, theft, vandalism, or weather damage that occurs to street banners while erected; and

SECTION FOUR: ELIGIBLITY [sic]: Because the demand for banner space may exceed the supply, the TOECRA has developed criteria for approving street banner applications:

  • Banners must either promote activities or special events occurring in the TOECRA area or promote programs promulgated by eligible applicants.

SECTION FIVE: LENGTH OF PROGRAMS: The decorative light pole space is available for as little as four (4) weeks or for as long as thirteen (13) weeks; and

SECTION SIX: BANNER CONSTRUCTION SPECFICATIONS [sic]: Banners must meet the following requirements, or they will not be placed on the poles:

  • Dimensions: 60 inches high and 30 inches wide with 2-inch loopholes
  • Material: 18oz, smooth, double-sided, reinforced, laminated, vinyl with strong block out polyester scrim and reinforced grommets.

Banners that do not withstand the physical elements (appear faded, tattered, or otherwise in a deteriorated condition) will be removed without refund; and

SECTION SEVEN: BANNER DESIGN GUIDELINES: Street banners are different from most graphic designs. They are generally viewed quickly or from a distance. Therefore, the message needs to be conveyed rapidly. A small number of design elements, bright, contrasting colors, and large, clear typography are common elements of successful banner designs. Although banners may identify the individual, business, or organization sponsoring the banner or event, they are not to be used as a means of providing commercial advertising. Thus, a banner may state "sponsored by ABC" with or without logo or "John Doe," but it cannot state "Eat at Joe's Restaurant, home of the best BBQ." No more than 1/8 of the total banner area shall be used to identify the sponsor or sponsors of a banner, activity, event, or program, including but not limited to the words "sponsored by" or their equivalent and the name(s) or logos of the sponsor(s). Banners that are deemed by the TOECRA to be obscene banners because of their contents or meet the judicially established definition of obscenity or that are otherwise considered obscene under Florida Statutes are not eligible for participation in the banner program and any application to install such banners shall be denied by the CRA Executive Director or the Director's designee; and

SECTION EIGHT: RESERVATIONS AND PROGRAM COSTS: All applicants must submit a complete request to the Community Redevelopment Agency. Reservations will be accepted up to one (1) year in advance on a first-come, first-serve basis, but not less than eight (8) weeks prior to the requested reservation date. Although an applicant may request a preferred location, the decision concerning the specific poles on which banners will be installed will be made by the CRA, in its sole discretion, after consideration of factors including, but not limited to, number of applications received for the same period of time, number of banner locations requested by each applicant, banner installation history and proximity of banners to event site or venue. The overall goal is to make reasonable accommodations that consider the interests of all applicants as well as the community interest in showcasing special events and activities available for public participation as well as enhancing the "sense of place" in the Town of Eatonville Community Redevelopment Area. At any time, banner sites may not be available because of construction, missing hardware, accidents, maintenance or other reasons. Fees for the use of the poles are intended to cover expenses directly related to the program. Such expenses may include, but are not limited to, installation of banners, removal of banners, repairs, the purchase of additional or replacement of brackets. Applicants are responsible for all costs related to the design, production, delivery, and storage of banners.

All fees must be paid in full to the Town of Eatonville prior to installation. The fee to install and remove each banner is $25 per pole, which includes one banner per pole; and

SECTION NINE: QUANTITY OF BANNERS: To ensure there is continuity with the banners within the Town of Eatonville Community Redevelopment Area, all applicants are required to place banners on all light poles. Kennedy Boulevard is split by Interstate 4, which creates east and west areas to place banners. There are three options for banner placement:

  • Option 1 – banners all along the East Kennedy Blvd.
  • Option 2 – banners along the north of East Kennedy Blvd.
  • Option 3 – banners along the south of East Kennedy Blvd.

The applicant must provide the total banners for the option chosen.

  • Option 1 has 54 light poles which will require 54 banners.
  • Option 2 has 27 light poles which will require 27 banners.
  • Option 3 has 27 light poles which will require 27 banners.

SECTION TEN: APPROVAL PROCESS: The banner design must be approved by the TOECRA prior to placement. The Executive Director or the Executive Director's designee will review and approve the banner design. If an application is denied, the applicant may request the CRA to review the denial. The CRA shall then have the option to uphold the denial or to approve the application, with or without modifications. An applicant can expect notification of the initial decision on the application within three (3) to five (5) business days of submittal. Applicants are strongly encouraged not to have banners produced prior to approval.

SECTION ELEVEN: EFFECTIVE DATE: This Resolution shall become effective immediately upon its passage and adoption.

PASSED AND ADOPTED this 15th day of February 2024. — Marlin Daniels, Chair; attest Veronica L. King, Town Clerk.

[Editor's note] Section numbering runs in correct sequence ONE through ELEVEN. Preserved drafting errors in headings: "SECTION FOUR: ELIGIBLITY" (apparently intended "ELIGIBILITY") and "SECTION SIX: BANNER CONSTRUCTION SPECFICATIONS" (apparently intended "SPECIFICATIONS"), both marked [sic]. Signer is Marlin Daniels, Chair (not Angie Gardner). OCR garbling of the signature block ("Marlin Paniels, Cirair") is an OCR artifact, not a document error; the image clearly reads "Marlin Daniels, Chair".

  • All applicants must not have outstanding code enforcement violations or liens;
    • Exceptions on a case-by-case basis

At the end of four years, the loan is forgiven in its entirety.

The amount of the deferred loan will be amortized in monthly installments over a specified period per the agreement term (36, 48 or 60 months) beginning on the date of execution of the Funding Agreement. The TOECRA will automatically forgive the monthly installments without any action as the installments become due, if the project is in compliance with all terms of the Funding Agreement.

SECTION SIX: PROGRAM SPECFICATIONS [sic]: The TOECRA PPPP benefits are contingent upon funding availability, TOECRA Board approval, and are not to be construed as an entitlement or right of a property owner or applicant.

Two genuine drafting errors are preserved verbatim: (1) the funding amount is written inconsistently — the words say "TWO THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS" but the parenthetical numeral says "($1,700)" — this conflict appears in both the title and SECTION TWO's recital (WHEREAS), marked [sic] in both places; the correct operative figure cannot be resolved from the document. (2) Section numbering skips THREE — it runs ONE, TWO, then jumps to FOUR. Both preserved as printed. The Chair signing is Wanda Randolph (not the usual Angie Gardner). Page 2 of the source PDF is a Morgan Construction invoice (Invoice No. 1, dated May 31, 2024; billed to Angela Thomas, 427 Clark St, Eatonville FL 32761; total $3,800 for power-wash/caulk/repaint of a house exterior) — retained in the source PDF, not transcribed here. Note this attached invoice's subject (house painting at 427 Clark St, $3,800) does not correspond to this resolution's stated subject (Stogies @ Sunset special-event funding); the mismatch is flagged for human review.

WHEREAS, the TOECRA Board of Directors do hereby desire to Approve a funding agreement for the Paint, Plant, and Pave Program at 510 Katherine Avenue in the amount of Two Thousand Six Hundred Dollars ($2,600).

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED BY THE TOWN OF EATONVILLE COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY OF EATONVILLE, FLORIDA,

SECTION ONE: SUMMARY: The Paint, Plant, and Pave Program (PPPP) was created to immediately enhance the aesthetics of single-family and multi-family 4-unit properties within residential neighborhoods. This program was created to provide curb appeal to single-family and multi-family 4-unit properties in despair [sic] in residential neighborhoods within the Town of Eatonville Community Redevelopment Area. The proposed improvements may include painting, landscaping, awnings, sidewalks, etc. The TOECRA will assist up to $5,000 per property for exterior improvements. Applications must be reviewed and approved prior to beginning work; and

SECTION TWO: OBJECTIVES: To immediately enhance the aesthetics of single-family and multi-family up to 4-unit properties within the residential neighborhoods of the TOECRA; and

SECTION THREE: DESCRIPTION: This program is created to provide curb appeal to single-family and multi-family up to 4-unit properties in despair [sic] in residential neighborhoods of TOECRA. The proposed improvements may include pressure cleaning, painting, minor façade repairs, landscaping, awnings, sidewalks, driveways, parking lot sealing, irrigation systems, fence repair or removal, and minor interior repairs affected by exterior improvements. Approved applicants must provide an invoice after the work is complete. The TOECRA will issue payment to approved applicants within 45 days of receipt of invoice; and

SECTION FOUR: PROCRESS [sic]: Complete applications will be approved on a first come first serve basis and must meet the following criteria:

  • All applicants must not have outstanding code enforcement violations or liens;
    • Exceptions on a case-by-case basis
  • The property must be in compliance with all TOE regulatory requirements, including but not limited to code enforcement and rental housing licensing.
    • This requirement may be requested to be waived by the TOECRA Board if the improvements will help to remedy minor outstanding code violations.
    • No guarantees of approval are implied by this provision.
  • Single-family and multi-family up to 4-unit properties are eligible.
  • Three (3) estimates from licensed contractors must be provided.
  • Work has not begun prior to approval by TOECRA Board of Directors.

The Owner shall maintain the improvements to the property. Should the Owner fail to maintain the improvements, the Owner will be required to repay the TOECRA for the cost of improvements, including labor.

SECTION FIVE: PROGRAM FUNDING: All awards will be treated as zero-interest, deferred loans. For those property owner applicants qualifying for the PPPP program up to $5,000, payment to the TOECRA is deferred for a four (4) year period where the loan depreciates at 25% each year. At the end of four years, the loan is forgiven in its entirety. If the property is demolished, the title to the property has been transferred, the property has been refinanced, or the property incurs a code enforcement lien during the deferment period, the loan will be prorated accordingly per year and the remaining balance shall be paid back to the TOECRA. If the total project cost is $999 or less, and the property is either demolished, title to the property has been transferred, the property has been refinanced, or the property incurs a code enforcement lien during the one-year period following disbursement of funds by the TOECRA, the full amount disbursed shall be paid back to the TOECRA. The amount of the deferred loan will be amortized in monthly installments over a specified period per the agreement term (36, 48 or 60 months) beginning on the date of execution of the Funding Agreement. The TOECRA will automatically forgive the monthly installments without any action as the installments become due if the project is in compliance with all terms of the Funding Agreement.

SECTION SIX: PROGRAM SPECIFICATIONS: The TOECRA PPPP benefits are contingent upon funding availability, TOECRA Board approval, and are not to be construed as an entitlement or right of a property owner or applicant. The property must remain free of all liens, judgments, and encumbrances of any kind. This provision may be waived by the TOECRA Board if development plans for said property meet the goals and objectives as set forth in the TOECRA Redevelopment plan. Upon grant approval, said property must remain free of all liens, judgements, or encumbrances of any kind under the term of the agreement. The applicant cannot apply for the program within one year after the lien has been released; and

SECTION SEVEN: DIRECTION: The TOECRA Board of Directors do hereby desire to Approve a funding agreement for the Paint, Plant, and Pave Program at 510 Katherine Avenue in the amount of Two Thousand Six Hundred Dollars ($2,600).

SECTION EIGHT: CONFLICTS: All Resolution or parts of Resolutions in conflict with any other Resolution or any of the provisions of this Resolution are hereby repealed.

SECTION NINE: SEVERABILITY: If any section or portion of a section of this Resolution is found to be invalid, unlawful or unconstitutional it shall not be held to invalidate or impair the validity, force or effect of any other section or part of this Resolution.

SECTION TEN: EFFECTIVE DATE: This Resolution shall become effective immediately upon its passage and adoption.

PASSED AND ADOPTED on this 19th day of September 2024. — Wanda Randolph, Chair; attest Veronica L. King, Town Clerk.

[Editor's note] Preserved drafting quirks: SECTION FOUR heading reads "PROCRESS" [sic] (appears to be intended as "PROGRESS" or "PROCESS"); the word "despair" [sic] appears twice (SECTION ONE and SECTION THREE) where the operative sense is "disrepair". Title states the amount as "TWO THOUSAND AND SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS ($2,600)" while the body (third WHEREAS and SECTION SEVEN) reads "Two Thousand Six Hundred Dollars ($2,600)" — both equal $2,600; no operative conflict.
