Property Acquistion Report_FINAL

The Riviera Beach Community Redevelopment Agency has identified three areas for immediate infill

housing and redevelopment within the Agency’s Boundaries. These Impact Areas are:

1. Avenue E Impact Area #1: Broadway/US-1to Avenue G, south of 23rd street. The CRA’s

strategy is to stabilize neighborhoods along Avenue E from 11th street to 23rd street by infill

housing development; focused on owner occupancy. The CRA is slated to invest $7 million

in street and sidewalk improvements along Avenue E by 2018.

2. MLK Impact Area #2: Avenue G to Australian Ave., MLK Blvd. to 10th Street and the 7th

Street Target Properties along the Linear Park (Avenue L; three properties on 7th just east of

the Linear Park, on the north side of the road.) The CRA’s goal is to eliminate blight along

the MLK Blvd/SR 710 corridor and embark on a major transformation of the area at Avenue I

(to the east) and Australian Avenue (to the west) between MLK Blvd./SR 710 and 9th Street.

The focus is to create a new residential development providing quality rental housing for low

income families. The focus is to create a “neighborhood within a neighborhood.”. The Florida

Department of Transportation (FDOT) is clearing MLK Blvd./SR 710 between Australian

and Old Dixie HWY for a four lane vehicle roadway.

3. Old Dixie Impact Area #3: 1st Street to 10th Street (properties immediately adjacent to Old

Dixie Highway within the Agency boundaries), Old Dixie Highway to Avenue G to 6th

Street. The CRA seeks to create a commercial mixed use neighborhood with a focus on

neighborhood retail and an additional residential development for low to moderate income

families. FDOT’s road improvements have displaced businesses and created a void for

neighborhood goods and services. Old Dixie Hwy. is a high traffic corridor and an attractive

business district can help sustain small and minority owned businesses.

This report was prepared by Dynamite Planning Tech using ArcGIS mapping, along with the Riviera

Beach CRA Plan, discussions with staff, and visual inspections of potential acquisitions.

Recommendations focus on acquiring properties to further the CRA strategies highlighted above.

Within the Impact Areas, several major redevelopment projects are planned such as the:

1. Avenue E Bike Path (a bike path will be constructed along Avenue E from 11th Street to Silver

Beach Road).

2. The reconstruction and widening of SR 710 east/west from Australian Avenue to Old Dixie Hwy

and north/south from Old Dixie Hwy and SR 710 to 10th Street.

3. Sidewalk reconstruction and completion within the Riviera Beach Heights neighborhood

4. The Community Garden construction on 10th Street in the Riviera Beach Heights Neighborhood

5. The ongoing HouseXHouse painting and rehabilitation program within the Riviera Beach Heights

Neighborhood

6. The Linear Park which will

reconnect the Riviera Beach Heights

Neighborhood north to south.

The CRA is seeking to acquire over $9

million in real estate acquisitions and to

budget an additional $11 million in

development and design to stabilize and

transform Park Manor and Riviera Beach

Heights Neighborhoods in the CRA District.

The CRA’s Goal is to leverage its A&D

budget five fold into $12.5 million of new

residential and commercial construction.

redevelopment

2. Assessing property records to secure bank owned properties apparently acquired through

foreclosures

3. Assessing code enforcement records to secure properties through aggressive purchase efforts.

4. Areas targeted to further the CRAs neighborhood improvement objectives
