Committee backs new nine‑year lease for Powell police athletic tenant; lease to remain coterminous with future project
Summary
The committee voted 3–0 to return a favorable recommendation for a proposed nine‑year, 364‑day lease for the Miami Beach Police Athletic League at 999 Eleventh Street; the new lease will include a clause making it coterminous with any new building constructed as part of a geo‑bond project.
The committee returned to the commission a favorable recommendation for a proposed lease between the city and the Miami Beach Police Athletic League (Powell) covering approximately 13,367 square feet at 999 Eleventh Street for a term of nine years and 364 days.
Ozzie Dominguez, the city’s division director of asset management, told the committee the existing lease expires June 30, 2025, and has no renewal options; the administration proposed renewing under the same terms. Dominguez said the new lease would include a stipulation that if a geo‑bond project results in a new building, the Powell lease would be coterminous with the new facility’s lease.
A committee member asked whether the city could honor the late officer Mortinho in interim facilities; staff said they would work with facilities and parks staff on a commemorative plaque and other recognition. The committee voted 3–0 to return the proposal with a favorable recommendation to the full commission.
No financial details of rent modifications were discussed in committee; the administration indicated terms mirror the existing agreement. The item will move to the full commission for final approval.
