Mr. Brown stated that the applicant submitted application No, 13-06-0402. Staff presented the
item and allowed for representation to address the council. Ivy D. Israel came down from
Chicago to speak on behalf of the Developer's Agreement for Family Dollar. She explained that

which in turn leases it from the Developer and does not have control over Family Dollar's hiring
practices. That being said; was given authorization to present that Family Dollar will work with
the City and create an agreement in which Family Dollar will use its best efforts to hire citizens
of Opa Locka for employment at the retail store. Further, Developer's general contractor will
reach out to the City of,Opa Locka in efforts to gather names of qualified subcontractors to
perform its''constrbction work. Both Family Dollar and Atwater Group (the parent Developer)
pride themselves in helping communities grow and to create opportunity within the community.
Chairman Russell asked about the hiring plans that if Family Dollar would consider hiring as so
many of the other businesses that come to the city does by hiring residents and Ms. Ivy Israel
stated that they would give their best efforts to support the City although they have nothing to do
with that part of the agreement but they will make sure Family Dollar is made aware of the
requested interest. Chairman Russell opened the floor for public hearing and no one came
forward so the public hearing was closed. Chairman Russell asked for a motion and Mr. Steven
Barrett moved for a motion to approve and Mr. Elio Guerrero second the motion.

Mr. Brown presented before the council that the Mixed Use Overlay District (MXUOD district)
provides the opportunity for service-oriented retail, commercial and mixed-income housing
within a pedestrian-friendly neighborhood with sustainable and environmentally responsive
buildings and infrastructure. The district's close proximity to public transportation will support a
variety of commercial, retail, moderate and high density multifamily housing types for a broad
range of incomes. The combination of accessibility to public transit and housing will shape this
district as an active mixed-use neighborhood. Proposed developments should promote a variety
of uses by providing ground floor active uses and open space through reduced parking capacities.
