This AGREEMENT dated the2J!!;;;y of ... J;r.N 2004, is entered into by and between
the BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS FOR MONROE COUNTY, hereinafter "County," on
behalf of the TOURIST DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL, hereinafter "TDC" and The Islamorada
Village of Islands, hereinafter "Grantee".
WHEREAS, the third penny of Tourist Development Tax may be used to acquire, construct,
extend, enlarge, remodel, repair, or improve museums, zoological parks, fishing piers, nature
centers or sports arenas which are publicly owned and operated or owned and operated by not-
for-profit corporations, and
WHEREAS, Grantee has applied for Grant in Aid funding for the Founders Park
Fishing Pier project to construct a Fishing Pier, hereinafter "the Property"; and
WHEREAS, Grantee has the ability to act as manager for the project; and
WHEREAS, the County and TDC have determined that it is in the best interest of the
County, for purposes of promoting tourism and preserving the heritage of the community to
construct the project for use as a fishing pier open to the public;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and payments contained
herein, the Grantee and the County have entered into this agreement on the terms and conditions
as set forth below.
1. AGREEMENT PERIOD. This agreement is for the period January 21,2004 through
September 30, 2004. This agreement shall remain in effect for the stated period unless one party
gives to the other written notification of termination pursuant to and in compliance with paragraphs
7,11 and 12 below.
SCOPE OF AGREEMENT. The Grantee shall provide services; materials and site preparation as
is required for the construction of a fishing pier along existing jetty at Founders Park.
A schedule of values is attached hereto as Exhibit A and shall be used as a guideline in
determining contract compliance for reimbursement purposes.
This project shall be completed and invoices submitted to the County Finance Department no
later than September 30, 2004. The Grant in Aid funds must be expensed in the fiscal year
ending September 30, 2004. No funds will be available for use for this project agreement after
September 30, 2004.
The recipient of TDC capital project funding shall designate a project manager if no licensed
architect, engineer or general contractor is involved in the project. If the project is performed by
County or City personnel, the project manager shall be the Engineer, Building Official or
Construction Manager of that local government. Should any signage be erected acknowledging
1
the develoP!llent of the project, said signage shall acknowledge the Tourist Development Council
of Monroe County.
If the amount of award exceeds $25,000, the Grantee agrees to dedicate the project property for a
period of ten years, absent any acts not in control of the Grantee such as hurricane or terrorist
damage, to the public purpose for which the funds are hereunder to be paid by County. If project
encompasses acquisition of personalty (property other than realty) rather than or in addition to
improvements to real property and for any reason the project property ceases such public purpose
use before the expiration of the ten years, the personalty acquired under this agreement shall be
used for purposes which are related to the promotion of tourism in Monroe County, by retention by
grantee and use for proper purposes in another location, or delivered to the County or a not-for-
profit organization to be used for purposes of promoting tourism.
3. AMOUNT OF AGREEMENT AND PAYMENT. The County shall provide an amount not
to exceed $60,000 in reimbursement for materials and services used to construct the property.
The Board of County Commissioners and the Tourist Development Council assume no liability to
fund this agreement for an amount in excess of this award. Monroe County's performance and
obligation to pay under this agreement is contingent upon an annual appropriation by the BOCC.
a) Payment for expenditures permissible by law and County policies shall be made
through reimbursement to Grantee upon presentation of invoices, canceled checks and other
documentation necessary to support a claim for reimbursement. Included in said documentation
shall be proof that the Grantee has received and applied to the property matching funds
equivalent to or greater than the amount invoiced to the County. Submission of invoices must be
certified through a statement signed by an officer of the organization and notarized, declaring that
representations in the invoice are true and factual.
b) Matching funds in an amount no less than the funds provided under this agreement
are required to be applied to the project. Application of matching funds requires actual payment of
the matching funds. Mere obligation through execution of a contract or approval of a budget item
to be paid from matching funds will not suffice. In order for funds to be deemed matching, they
shall have been expended for the services and materials required for the specific project
described in the Scope of Services paragraph. Any funds applied to any use on the real property
other than the project shall not be used as matching funds required under this agreement. In
order to be considered matching funds for the project funded by grant under this agreement, the
matching funds must be applied to the project during the term of this agreement.
c) Documentation shall be submitted to the TDC Administrative Office to show the
receipt and application of in-kind donations of goods, professional services, and materials. Said
documentation should include invoices, bills of lading, etc., and be verified as received and
applied to the project through a notarized statement of the project architect, engineer, general
contractor or project manager. The receipt and application to the project of volunteer labor are to
be documented and verified by notarized signature of the project architect, engineer, general
contractor or project manager, and said documentation submitted to the TDC Administrative
Office. All submissions should have a proposed schedule of values for phases and indicate the
percentage of completion of the overall project as of the submission. This document should be
signed by the project architect, engineer, general contractor or project manager.
d) Funding granted under this Grant in Aid Agreement must be expended by the County
no later than September 30, 2004. Any amount of the grant funds not expended by County by
that date shall no longer be available to Grantee, unless prior to September 30, 2004, an
amendment extending this agreement has been approved in writing and executed by both parties.
2
4. REPORTS. The Grantee shall provide financial reports in summary of activity on forms
provided or approved by the TDC, and quarterly narrative reports of activity under the approved
work plan. The Grantee shall keep such records as are necessary to document the performance
of the agreement and expenses as incurred, and give access to these records at the request of
the TDC, the County, the State of Florida or authorized agents and representatives of said
government bodies. It is the responsibility of the Grantee to maintain appropriate records to
insure a proper accounting of all funds and expenditures. The Grantee understands that it shall
be responsible for repayment of any and all audit exceptions which are identified by the Auditor
General for the State of Florida, the Clerk of Court for Monroe County, the Board of County
Commissioners for Monroe County, or their agents and representatives. In the event of an audit
exception, the current fiscal year grant award or subsequent grant awards will be offset by the
amount of the audit exception. In the event the grant is not renewed or supplemented in future
years, the Grantee will be billed by the County for the amount of the audit exception and shall
promptly repay any audit exception.
5. MODIFICATIONS AND AMENDMENTS. Any and all modifications of the terms of this
agreement shall be only amended in writing and approved by the Board of County Commissioners
for Monroe County.
