To Whom It May Concern,

The Deuces Live, Inc. (Deuces) proudly presents to the City of St. Petersburg our response to the Request for Proposal (RFP) for the St. Petersburg Commerce Park (SPCP). The Deuces Live, Inc. is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization. Our mission is to promote positive growth and financial revitalization to the 22nd Street South corridor while preserving its rich history. In line with our mission, we propose a mixed use, live/work/play urban development along 22nd Street South, a lakefront townhouse community, and a Commerce Park with medium technology, green, and other light industrial users. Our vision builds on the requirements set forth in the RFP to create a vibrant, thriving, diverse community south of Central, which meets the needs of the impacted neighborhoods and community at large. The team we have assembled has extensive community and development expertise (including successful mixed use and light industrial projects). We are confident in our team’s experience and ability to deliver the proposed vision to achieve intended results for the community and the City. We hope to be selected to enter into a negotiating agreement process with the City that would allow us to work together in realizing our shared vision. We look forward to developing this amazing community, as well as restoring the strength of the 22nd Street South corridor as a destination on par with Grand Central, the Edge, and downtown St. Petersburg. Thank you for the opportunity to submit our proposed vision for the SPCP. Respectfully, Toriano Parker (primary contact) President, The Deuces Live Inc. 833 22nd Street South, St. Petersburg, FL 33712 (727) 235-4340, [email protected]

Section 1: Executive Summary

The Deuces Live, Inc. (Deuces) submits this response to the City of St. Petersburg’s Request for Proposal for the +14 acre property known as the St. Petersburg Commerce Park (SPCP). This response addresses the requirements of the RFP, as well as proposes a vision for reinvention and revitalization of the area.

The Deuce’s vision is a mixed-income, mixed use residential development coupled with multigenerational park, office units and a Commerce Park. The vision creates opportunities for businesses and living wage jobs, as well as a vibrant “main street” retail component intended to serve the immediate residents and the broader community. This development is an extension of The Deuces Live, Inc.’s focus to create an atmosphere within the historic 22nd Street South District that both stimulates economic growth, community development, and enhances the quality of life for the businesses and the residential population.

The Deuces Live, Inc. assembled a highly talented and unique team to work together in developing the SPCP property. Led by Toriano Parker (President of The Deuces Live, Inc.) the team includes Rob Ledford of Baker Barrios leading the architectural and design team, Jon Gotwald of George F. Young heading the engineering team, and Scott Ferris of Axis One Construction as the construction manager for the development. Composed of individuals with combined 84 years of development experience coupled with a 14 year business and community veteran Toriano Parker, this team creates an unmatched advantage of highly specialized knowledge, extensive experience, and community insight. This team goes beyond the traditional model of working from the outside to meet community needs to collaborating on a daily basis with community leaders as valued team members and team leads.

In this proposal, the Deuces satisfied the evaluation criteria listed in the RFP. We acknowledge the criteria as baseline preferences and requirements. As such we invite you to understand the submission of this response as exceeding that baseline in proposing a community supported development, which intensifies the land use to create the greatest community benefit, opportunities for entrepreneurs, small, and medium businesses alike, and establishes a higher standard for quality of life in the immediate area.

In all components, from planning through implementation, this proposal offers key advantages:

Deuces, a community stakeholder, actively leading the development and implementing the community action plan alongside a team with extensive development experience.

An inclusive vision which ensures all interest of the RFP and the community are equally served in creating a development with residential, businesses, retail, industrial, and recreational.

The variety of market served in this development frees the project from issues associated with single use.

Mixed use, mixed income, vibrant development serves as a hub for 22nd Street South community and as a catalyst for 21st century urban development south of Central.

Job Creation

3. Job Creation

At its peak, the SPCP property combined with the 22 Street corridor to the south had 111 business. The businesses included restaurants, groceries, retail shops, pharmacies, photo shop, a furniture store, accountants, doctor’s, and lawyer’s offices along with a post office substation. These small businesses provided services and products to the community, employed community residents, and generated a self-sustaining economic engine of earning and spending in the same community. While it may be possible to credit the economic vibrancy of the past with the confines of segregation, to do so would take away from the bigger picture. The bigger picture is that which drives most of the developments taking place in downtown St. Petersburg. The big picture is to build developments which allow for live, work, and play spaces to coexist, so neighbors invest in neighbors, people earn and spend in their local economy, and a destination is created for the public at wide to enjoy.

The Deuces Live aims to do the same at the SPCP: to create a local jobs engine, restore the local economic markets, and bring forth financial revitalization to the area while offering a higher quality of living and a destination for the public to enjoy. We advance a vision of development that goes beyond physical buildings in the neighborhood into one that provides benefits for those impacted and advances inclusion of an underserved area into the growth and development taking place in other areas of the city. One of the keys to this vision working is access and opportunity for employment.

The RFP requires response proposals to result in employment opportunities (i.e. jobs) for 64 individuals of which at least 39 must be filled with low to moderate income individuals.

Employment opportunities are such a critical part of our vision that our proposed plan results in employment opportunities for 140 individuals of which 66 individuals will be low to moderate income individuals.

3.1 Job Creation Proposal

This vital collaboration between experienced development team and community-based business and organizational leaders creates an opportunity with distinct benefits for the impacted, local community. Upon the acceptance of this proposal, the opportunities for these benefits will be realized in the form of living wage careers. Our living wage job creation plan targets mostly low-income impacted residents but allows flexibility to hire from the surrounding areas as well. The plan includes the following:

1. Construction (28 jobs total): Our commitment to providing jobs starts from the construction and continues thru the life of the development. We propose the following paths for employment:

a. On the Job Shadowing and Training: We plan to include a job shadowing program for specialized jobs such as materials testing. The prospects for the program must have basic reading, writing, and math abilities. They would not need to have any previous experience in the construction industry and would not be allowed to have any history of “DUIs.” The program provides prospects with a two week shadowing opportunity. During this time, they will be exposed to trade, the nature of the job, and the expectations of the position. After two weeks, prospects will have the opportunity to train for the position and then a full time job. With job experience, these employees would be able to move on to work on large and small construction sites throughout various phases of construction.

b. Job Fair and Other Local Hire Programs: Work with an experienced company, The Redevelopment & Development Firm, to create local job hiring programs and host job fairs in the community. In addition, we plan to use the Deuce’s community connections and existing neighborhood partnerships to co-host job fairs, as well as recommend applicants for local hiring program.

c. Timeline: July 2016 – March 2019

2. Commercial, Office, and Residential (111 jobs total: 75 new and 36 relocated): These post-development jobs focus more on entry level positions which allow the employee to earn a living wage, receive benefits in some cases, and a tangible path for on the job career development.

a. We estimate the commercial and office businesses to create 105 of the 111 jobs stated above. We based this number on the ratio of 1 job for every 1,227 square feet of space. The square footage for the commercial and office units total 130,000 square feet. We estimate 36 of the 111 jobs will be relocated jobs as we attract tenants in need of larger space at more competitive rates than those offered downtown. All commercial and office leases will include a requirement for a minimum of 15% of the staff be local hires.

b. The two residential buildings hold the remaining 6 jobs. In our conversations with residential management companies, it seems 1 job will be relocated property manager from another site, 3 jobs will be administrative new hires and the remaining 2 positions will be maintenance new hires. These positions are essential for property

10 of 58


(727) 235-4340

management/maintenance and our built in the operational budget of the residential buildings.

c. Timeline: August 2017 (Retail/Office), April 2018 (Apartments 1), and September 2018 (Apartment 2)

3. Light Industrial (48 jobs: 38 new and 10 relocated): The light industrial jobs offers two main

job types of interest in this proposal: administrative/managerial and entry level specialized manufacturing jobs. Please note the 48 jobs based on a ratio of 1 job every 2,500 square feet.

a. The targeted users for the industrial space will be relocating from other areas. We estimate these companies to relocate roughly 20% of their staff and then hiring locally to fulfill their remaining staff needs including administrative and managerial job vacancies.

b. Timeline: July 2018

As far as the entry level manufacturing positions, we plan to partner with Pinellas Technical College and St. Petersburg College to create a student on the job training program similar to Luma Stream. Luma Stream has demonstrated a successful education model for on the job training leading to high paying specialized manufacturing positions at their company. We aim to create a similar program for our industrial users in exchange for financial incentives like rent reduction for the first 3 years of their lease.

3.2 Additional Deliverables

In addition to above mentioned, the plan includes the following deliverables:

1. Outreach: Activities geared towards increasing the community and businesses partners a. Increased partnership will improve training access, delivery, and effectiveness b. Partnering with public agencies and community based organizations provides for

greater input in the pool of job applications, job requirements, etc. c. Partners may act as community advocates to support employers hiring and retention

of impacted and local employees.

2. Recruitment a. Community Outreach workshops for community organizations and businesses

interested in participating in employment initiatives for construction and building trades.

b. Application process, including an orientation session, for those interested in the on the job shadow and training initiative.

3. Employment Support Services: Impacted community members may need access to additional services to allow them to take advantage of opportunities for job training and placement. We plan to work with community organizations to design a pamphlet listing various support services including the contact information, list of service criteria, and the application process with timeline. Examples of support services are:

a. GED or Vocational Training b. Child Care c. Health Insurance for their family d. Transportation

4. Goal of 30% MBE/WBE/SBE Business participation: A member from our team met with

Claude Williams, Economic Development Coordinator-SBE Program, to determine the best way to include MBE/WBE/SBE businesses in the development of the proposed vision. We developed a plan for The Deuces Live Inc. (along with other community organizations and community based business) to sponsor an informational workshop for local subcontractors interested in working on the development. At the workshop, interested parties would be walked through the SBE certification process and provided with an application packet. Subcontractors who have submitted an application to Claude Williams will be given preference in the hiring process.

4 Proposed Development Plan: Overview

The SPCP is a prime location in its proximity to neighboring districts like Grand Central, downtown, the Pinellas Trail, and the 22nd Street South corridor. As such, our proposal creates the most successful outcome in that it builds on the baseline RFP requirements with a concept that responds to the needs of the impacted area and larger community. The is an amazing opportunity for the 22nd Street South corridor, South St. Petersburg, and the City of St. Petersburg to marry financial success with meeting community needs through a socially responsible live, work, and play mixed use development. Thereby extending the urban developments in downtown St. Petersburg and in the Edge district into the “Midtown” area, as well as create continuity of community development from Grand Central District thru the Art Districts to Mercy Melrose area (along 22nd Street from Central to 22nd Avenue South). Our proposal not only transforms the area, it represents the possibility for community driven development to be an alternative to gentrification. We envision retail/restaurants along 22nd St with diagonal parking out front. The northern end of retail/restaurant space has additional commercial space for office, educational, or medical use above, while retail directly across from Sylvia’s/Manhattan Casino will have mixed income housing above with 1st floor parking in the back. On the east end 7th Avenue South, we propose a small lakefront townhouse community to provide an ownership component. Behind the community towards the mid and west end of 7th Avenue South, we plan to have Commerce Park with a focus on green and light to medium technology companies. This transformational vision does require a zone change. The land is currently zoned Light Industrial with CCT along portions of 22nd Street. These zone codes do not support the intense use of land we propose. As such, the land will need a zone change to allow for the highest and most intense use of land, the height of the buildings, or the density needs. We propose CCT-2. This mixed income, mixed ownership, mixed use development creates a new destination in the area, which gives residents and visitors, the ability to browse in retail shops, take classes at St. Petersburg College Midtown campus, eat at variety of restaurants, sit outside at local coffee shop, hang out at 3 Daughters Brewery, and enjoy other go to spots in the area. In addition, it complements the surrounding areas, adds greater value to the area, and creates numerous public benefits, such as:

An attractive and vibrant community with public spaces, retail, and venue for neighboring community events (i.e. The Deuce’s Sunday Market)

An opportunity for tax income from retail business and from residential units

A fully realized, integrated, and engaged community of residents, business owners, employees, and patrons neighboring an economic depressed area

It provides desperately needed quality, affordable and market rate rental housing

An opportunity for younger generations, professionals, and neighboring residents to become a visible part of the wider 22nd Street South community

(727) 235-4340

4.2 Phase One: Retail/Restaurants and Office

Use Program: 24,000 SF and 16,000 SF, 1st Floor 48,000 SF and 32,000 SF, 2nd and 3rd floors Building Description: 2 buildings, 3 stories each. A walkway between the buildings

provides access to additional parking behind. The walkway is large enough to accommodate outdoor seating for restaurant or coffee shop.

Site Size: 1.6 acres Zoning district required: CCT 1 Possible retail tenants: An eatery i.e. Fortunato’s, cinema house, a small footprint

grocery, dry cleaning, a postal store i.e. UPS store, or big & tall urban clothing store.

Possible upstairs tenants: Medical or dental office, lawyer’s office, business incubator, or

ready to go office suites with conference space and day office share.

We plan to work with Commercial Partners Reality, Inc. to assist with commercial leasing. Commercial Partners Reality has extensive experience in the commercial reality market, as well as they have had commercial success in the area. Based on the opinion of these advisors, we anticipate a rental rate of $14 per square foot for the retail and $12 per square foot for the upper floors with space for an additional $2 square foot once the area is fully developed.

17 of 58


(727) 235-4340

4.3 Phase Two: Mixed Use Apartments

Use Program: 200 units of rental housing, market rate and up to 20% affordable 10,000 SF, 1st floor retail Building Description: 1 building of 5 stories. There will be secure first floor parking in a

garage, under the apartment units, behind the retail. Site Size: 2.8 acres (shared site with senior apartments) Zoning district required: CCT 2 Possible retail tenants: A restaurant and coffee shop. Unit Breakdown: 1 BR (700 SF), 25 units 2 BR (950 SF), 160 units 3 BR (1,150SF), 15 units The target market for these residential units are small families, working professionals, entrepreneurs, artists, and those who want to live in an urban work, live, play development but can’t afford the downtown rental rates. Designed with this target market in mind, the community features state of the art fitness center, business center with conference room access, movie theatre room, and other lifestyle amenities.

(727) 235-4340

4.4 Phase Three: Commerce Park

Use Program: 130,000 SF Building Description: Single story buildings with loading docks. With surface level

parking lot in the bottom, left corner of the Commerce Park. Site Size: 3.9 acres Zoning district required: IT Possible IT tenants: Medium technology companies, hardware designers, producers of

electronic products, communication equipment companies, and light industrial green companies.

Based on preliminary research, we anticipate a rental rate of $7-$9 per square foot. We plan to pre-lease the buildings prior to construction so that we are able to construct according to the needs of the user. We believe the mixed use development and residential units will increase interest in the Commerce Park for potential users. Our primary focus is to find users for the Commerce Park that will complement each other and the mixed use community in the front.

(727) 235-4340

4.5 Phase Four: Senior Apartments

Use Program: 80 units of market and affordable rental housing Building Description: 1 building of 5 stories. There will be secure first floor parking in a

garage, under the apartment units. Site Size: 2.8 acres (shared site with mixed use apartments) Zoning district required: CCT 2 Unit Breakdown: JR 1 BR (500 SF), 10 units 1 BR (700 SF), 28 units 2 BR (900 SF), 42 units The target market for these residential units is 62 and older. A minimum 20% of the units will be affordable and intended for low-moderate income seniors. We marked this building as phase four to give us time to work with the Housing Authority and U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD )to secure additional financing for this development. The units are intended for independent living. These apartments offer high quality housing with active lifestyle/engagement components and are built with the goal of long-term affordability. Some of the features include: 24-hour on-call nursing, café for dining, fitness center, library with computer lab, meeting, and lecture space, and a common space lounge.

20 of 58


(727) 235-4340

4.6 Phase Five: Townhouse Community

Use Program: 30 units of townhouses, 1,800 SF Building Description: 30 buildings, 3 stories each. There will be a 2 car parking garage

on the first floor with a studio/office component behind the garage and two levels of living space above.

Site Size: 2.4 acres Zoning district required: CCT 2 Unit Breakdown: 3 BR/ 2 BA (1,800 SF), 30 units The townhouses provide an opportunity for home ownership within the development, so that development is both mixed income and mixed ownership. The townhouses also offer residential living options for larger families, people who prefer individualized units for more privacy than an apartment offers, and for those interested in having their living and work space combined. There is significant demand from existing residents for townhouses in central St. Petersburg. Lastly, the townhouses are walking distance to restaurants, shops, recreation and park, etc., so residents get the best of both worlds: a neighborhood feel with the conveniences of urban, mixed use development.

6.6 Financial Statement

Upon the awarding of the RFP, The Deuces has identified and applied for financing with several lenders. All three lenders were interested in the proposed development but would not go as far as to submit a Letter of Credit with their financials until after the site had been awarded to our development team.

Based on the lending criteria and hurdles, we will not be submitting a Letter of Credit at this time. However, we stipulate upon being awarded with RFP, we would be able to secure funding for the first three phases within thirty (30) days of the awarding date. We further stipulate if Deuces does not produce the financing within that time period, we fully understand and acknowledge the City’s right not to enter into an agreement with The Deuces Live, Inc. for the tenancy and development of the SPCP.
