Background:

In 2023, CRA staff finalized the Interlocal Agreement with the Solid Waste Authority (SWA) for the 2023 SWA Blighted and Distressed Property Clean-Up and Beautification Grant. The SWA Grant funds will be used to demolish the CRA commercial building located at 700 West Atlantic Avenue (Subject Property) and adjacent parking lot. The demolition is currently underway and is expected to be finalized by April 2025.

 

Prior to the demolition, the Subject Property had been leased to four (4) tenants: Hatcher Construction and Development, Inc., Emanuel Jackson, Sr. Project, Inc., Blanc Beauty Salon Hair and Nail, Inc., and Pedro Zephirin, an individual d/b/a Klein’s Multi Services. On June 30, 2024, all four (4) tenants had vacated the Subject Property and the Subject Property was confirmed vacant at that time.

 

At this time, CRA Staff is requesting the CRA Board approve and authorize Resolution 2025-04 for the purposes of:

3)                     Terminating the leases of Hatcher Construction and Development, Inc., Emanuel Jackson, Sr. Project, Inc., Blanc Beauty Salon Hair and Nail, Inc., and Pedro Zephirin, an individual d/b/a Klein’s Multi Services as of June 30, 2024, for the property located at 700 West Atlantic Avenue, Delray Beach, Florida, 33444; and
