13. Amended and Restated Interlocal Cooperation Agreement
and Memorandum of Agreement - Brooklyn Village
Action:
Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute:
‒ An amended and restated Brooklyn Village Interlocal Cooperation Agreement
between the City of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County that preserves the city’s
leverage for the development of affordable housing in the redevelopment plans for
Brooklyn Village, and
‒ An amended and restated Brooklyn Village Memorandum of Agreement among the
City of Charlotte, Mecklenburg County, and the Charlotte Housing Authority.
Staff Resource(s):
Pamela Wideman, Housing and Neighborhood Services
Explanation
§ In 2007, the city conveyed Marshall Park to Mecklenburg County to facilitate redevelopment of
Brooklyn Village. In return, Mecklenburg County conveyed land to the city to facilitate development
of Knights Stadium, now known as BB&T Ballpark.
§ The implementation of affordable housing and the terms by which the existing Marshall Park property
is included in the Brooklyn Village redevelopment plans is specified in the Interlocal Cooperation
Agreement between Mecklenburg County and the City of Charlotte (Interlocal Agreement), as well
as the Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) among the city, Mecklenburg County, and the Charlotte
Housing Authority.
§ The current Interlocal Agreement contains a reversion option to convey Marshall Park back to the
city at no cost if the county fails to sell the property to a developer by December 31, 2019.
§ In 2018, Mecklenburg County, with the assistance, support, and knowledge of the city, entered into
a Master Redevelopment Agreement with BK Partners, LLC, to serve as master developer of Brooklyn
Village.
§ An updated Interlocal Agreement and MOA are necessary to preserve the city’s leverage for
affordable housing on the Brooklyn Village site while providing sufficient time to implement the
development. The city, Mecklenburg County, and the Charlotte Housing Authority have worked in
good faith to amend the terms of the Interlocal Agreement and MOA to reflect the current
development plan.
§ The Interlocal Agreement has been revised to extend the time Mecklenburg County has to sell any
portion of the existing Marshall Park property to BK Partners, LLC from December 31, 2019, to
December 31, 2029. If none of the Marshall Park property is sold by the County to the developer by
that time, the city can request that Marshall Park be conveyed back to the city at no cost.
§ The developer has agreed to provide a minimum of 114 housing units to households earning up to 80
percent of the area median income (AMI). A minimum of 35 of these housing units will be made
available to households earning up to 60 percent of AMI; the remaining affordable units will be
available to households earning 61 percent to 80 percent of AMI. The MOA has been revised to:
- Reflect that a minimum of 35 housing units will be made available to households with
tenant-based Housing Choice Vouchers for households earning up to 60 percent of the AMI.
The previous MOA involved vouchers for 30 housing units for those households earning up to
80 percent of AMI, and
- Include a provision that ensures a deed restriction will be placed on the below 60 percent
AMI units for a term of at least 30 years.
§ The Mecklenburg County Board of Commissioners approved a similar action on June 18, 2019.

Renovation
Action:

$114,500,000 to Holder-Edison Foard-Leeper Company for Construction Manager at Risk
Services for the Charlotte Convention Center Phase I Renovation project, and

for the Convention Center Phase 1 Renovation.
Staff Resource(s):
Tracy Dodson, Economic Development
Angela Lee, General Services
Mike Davis, General Services
Kelly Flannery, Finance
Explanation
§ This project will construct renovations to the 23-year old Charlotte Convention Center, a
city-owned facility in Council District 1.
§ In 2015, the Charlotte Regional Visitor’s Authority (CRVA) initiated a study that concluded that
several improvements would advance the Convention Center’s marketability and competitiveness.
§ On September 25, 2017, City Council approved the set-aside of $110,000,000 of future debt
capacity for the Convention Center Phase I Renovation.
§ The city has selected the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) project delivery method to provide
more effective coordination, more control of project costs and schedule, and to better mitigate risk
during construction.
§ Representatives from the city and CRVA selected Holder-Edison Foard-Leeper Company using the
qualifications-based selection process to provide construction management services.
§ Upon successful completion of the pre-construction phase, City Council approved an initial CMAR
contract on November 26, 2018 for an amount not to exceed $98,000,000 with Holder-Edison
Foard-Leeper Company.
§ After bidding, negotiating with subcontractors, and value engineering, Holder-Edison Foard-Leeper
Company has determined the cost of construction to be $114,500,000 - an amount that exceeds
the current CMAR contract value by $16,500,000.
§ The city and CRVA will use $4,600,000 of existing funds to pay for construction-related items such
as furniture, materials testing, and building commissioning.
§ Another $11,900,000 is needed in order to increase the existing CMAR contract to the $114,500,000
guaranteed maximum price (GMP) value.
§ Holder-Edison Foard-Leeper Company has developed a GMP for construction phase services,
including coordination of all construction activities, managing all subcontractors, and delivering the
project on schedule and within budget in collaboration with the city, the CRVA, and the design
consultants.
§ Under the CMAR delivery method, once the GMP is set, all construction risks transfer to the
construction manager except for any issues arising from deficiencies in the construction plans.
§ Holder-Edison Foard-Leeper Company, as the CMAR, will not be allowed to self-perform the
construction work. The company will be required to prequalify all first-tier subcontractors and
competitively bid the work to subcontractors.
§ The project is anticipated to be complete by third quarter 2021.
Charlotte Business INClusion
The city has established project goals of 7.00% SBE and 14.00% MBE. Because this is a Construction
Manager at Risk project, the Construction Manager has the opportunity to add small business enterprises
(SBE) and Minority Business Enterprises (MBE) firms throughout the life of the project. (Part G: Section 2.3

Explanation
§ This project will construct a 14,500-square-foot, two-story facility at 5809 East Independence
Boulevard, in Council District 5.
§ The Independence Division is currently occupying a leased property at 9315 Monroe Road.
§ This facility has been designed to achieve basic-level LEED version 4 certification per the city’s
policy on Sustainable Facilities.
§ This contract also includes the construction of the City View Connector Street project, funded by
the Land Acquisition and Street Connections Program. This project will increase neighborhood
connectivity and improve safety. Combining the projects will streamline subcontractor coordination
and enhance schedule integration for project delivery.
§ The city has selected the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) project delivery method to provide
more effective coordination, more certainty with project costs and schedule, and to better mitigate
risks during construction.
§ On October 1, 2018, the city issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ); seven responses were
received.
§ Based on the RFQ, the city awarded the pre-construction phase to Turner Construction Company
on April 5, 2019, in the amount of $107,504. Turner Construction Company is currently in the final
stages of pre-construction.
§ Upon successful completion of the pre-construction phase, Turner Construction Company was
determined to be the best qualified firm to meet the city’s needs for CMAR Services on the basis of
demonstrated competence and qualification of professional services in response to the RFQ
requirements.
§ Turner Construction Company has developed a guaranteed maximum price for construction phase
services, including coordination of all construction activities, managing all subcontractors, and
delivering the project on schedule and within budget in collaboration with the city and the design
consultant.
§ Turner Construction Company, as the CMAR, will not be allowed to self-perform the construction
work. The company will be required to prequalify all first-tier subcontractors and competitively bid
the work to subcontractors.
§ The project is anticipated to be complete by third quarter 2020.
Charlotte Business INClusion
The city has established project goals of 15.00% SBE and 7.00% MBE. Because this is a Construction

The following excerpts from the City’s Charlotte Business INClusion Policy are intended to provide further
explanation for those agenda items that reference the Charlotte Business INClusion Policy in the business
meeting agenda.
Part A: Administration and Enforcement
Part A: Section 2.3: Targeted Outreach and Designated Contracts for Small Business Enterprises (SBEs).
When feasible, the Charlotte Business INClusion (CBI) Office may designate certain Contracts or categories
of Contracts in which solicitation efforts will be directed only to SBEs. In designating Contracts for
targeted outreach or SBE participation, the CBI Office takes into account the size and scope of the
Contract and the availability of SBEs to provide the applicable services or products.
Part A: Section 3.1: Subcontracting Goals. The City shall establish one or more Subcontracting Goals for
all Construction Contracts of $300,000 or more and for all Architecture, Engineering, and Surveying
Contracts of $100,000 or more. Contracts estimated to be less than these thresholds are exempt from the
goal setting process.
Appendix Section 20: Contract: For the purposes of establishing an (Minority, Women, and Small
Business Enterprise (MWSBE) subcontracting goal on a Contract, the following are examples of contract
types:
§ Any agreement through which the City procures services from a Business Enterprise, other than
Exempt Contracts.
§ Contracts include agreements and purchase orders for (a) construction, re-construction, alteration,
and remodeling; (b) architectural work, engineering, surveying, testing, construction management,
and other professional services related to construction; and (c) services of any nature (including
but not limited to general consulting and technology-related services), and (d) apparatus, supplies,
goods, or equipment.
§ The term “Contract” shall also include Exempt Contracts for which an SBE, Minority Business
Enterprise (MBE), or Women Business Enterprise (WBE) Goal has been set.
§ Financial Partner Agreements, Development Agreements, Infrastructure Improvement Agreements,
Design-Build, and Construction Manager-at-Risk Agreements shall also be deemed “Contracts,” but
shall be subject to the provisions referenced in the respective Parts of the Charlotte Business
INClusion Program Policy.
Appendix Section 27: Exempt Contracts: Contracts that fall within one or more of the following
categories are “Exempt Contracts” and shall be exempt from all aspects of the Charlotte Business INClusion
Policy:
No Competitive Process Contracts: Contracts or purchase orders that are entered into without a
competitive process, or entered into based on a competitive process administered by an entity other than
the City, including but not limited to contracts that are entered into by sole sourcing, piggybacking, buying
off the North Carolina State contract, buying from a competitive bidding group purchasing program as
allowed under G.S. 143-129(e)(3), or using the emergency procurement procedures established by the
North Carolina General Statutes.
Managed Competition Contracts: Managed competition contracts pursuant to which a City department
or division competes with Business Enterprises to perform a City function.
Real Estate Leasing and Acquisition Contracts: Contracts for the acquisition or lease of real estate.
Federal Contracts Subject to Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Requirements: Contracts
that are subject to the U.S. Department of Transportation Disadvantaged Business Enterprise Program as
City of Charlotte Page 111 Printed on 9/24/2019

set forth in 49 CFR Part 26 or any successor legislation.

program or minority and women business development program maintained by a Financial Partner.
Interlocal Agreements: Contracts with other units of federal, state, or local government.
Contracts for Legal Services: Contracts for legal services, unless otherwise indicated by the City
Attorney.
Contracts with Waivers: Contracts for which the City Manager or CBI Program Manager waives the CBI
Program requirements (such as when there are no MWSBE subcontracting opportunities on a Contract).
Special Exemptions: Contracts where the department and the CBI Program Manager agree that the
department had no discretion to hire an MWSBE (e.g., emergency contracts or contracts for banking or
insurance services) shall be Exempt Contracts.
Appendix Section 35: Informal Contracts: Contracts that are estimated to be less than the following
dollar thresholds prior to issuance of the City Solicitation Documents:
§ Construction Contracts: $500,000, and
§ Service Contracts and Commodities Contracts: $100,000.
Part B: Construction and Commodities Contracts
Part B: Section 2.1: When the City sets a Subcontracting Goal, each Bidder must either: (a) meet each
Subcontracting Goal; or (b) comply with the Good Faith Negotiation and Good Faith Efforts requirements for
each unmet Subcontracting Goal. Failure to comply constitutes grounds for rejection of the Bid. The City
Solicitation Documents will contain certain forms that Bidders must complete to document having met
these requirements.
Part B: Section 2.3: No Goals When There Are No Subcontracting Opportunities. The City shall not
establish Subcontracting Goals for Contracts where: a) there are no subcontracting opportunities identified
for the Contract; or b) there are no SBEs, MBEs, or WBEs (as applicable) to perform scopes of work or
provide products or services that the City regards as realistic opportunities for subcontracting.
Part C: Service Contracts
Part C: Section 2.1(a) Subcontracting Goals: No Goal When There Are No MWSBE Subcontracting
Opportunities. The City shall not establish Subcontracting Goals for Service Contracts where (a) there are

121. Reference - Property Acquisitions and Condemnations
§ The City has negotiated in good faith to acquire the properties set forth below
§ For acquisitions, the property owner and staff have agreed on a price based on appraisals and/or
estimates.
§ In the case of condemnations, the value was established by an independent, certified appraisal
followed by a third-party appraisal review.
§ Real Estate staff diligently attempts to contact all property owners by:
- Sending introductory letters via regular and certified mail,
- Making several site visits,
- Leaving door hangers and business cards,
- Seeking information from neighbors,
- Searching the internet,
- Obtaining title abstracts, and
- Leaving voice messages.
§ For most condemnation cases, City staff and the property owner(s) have been unable to reach a
settlement. In some cases, condemnation is necessary to ensure a clear title to the property.
§ If the City Council approves the resolutions, the City Attorney’s office will initiate condemnation
proceedings. As part of the condemnation process, real estate staff and the City Attorney’s Office
will continue to negotiate, including court-mandated mediation, in an attempt to resolve the matter.
Most condemnation cases are settled by the parties prior to going to court.
§ If a settlement cannot be reached, the case will proceed to a trial before a judge or jury to
determine “just compensation.”
§ Full text of each resolution is on file with the City Clerk’s Office.
§ The definition of easement is a right created by grant, reservation, agreement, prescription, or
necessary implication, which one has in the land of another, it is either for the benefit of land, such
as right to cross A to get to B, or “in gross,” such as public utility easement.
§ The term “fee simple” is a synonym for ownership and is an estate under which the owner is entitled
to unrestricted powers to dispose of the property, and which can be left by will or inherited.

122. Reference - Property Transaction Process
Property Transaction Process Following City Council Approval for Condemnation
The following overview is intended to provide further explanation for the process of property transactions
that are approved by City Council for condemnation.
Approximately six weeks of preparatory work is required before the condemnation lawsuit is filed. During
this time, City staff continues to negotiate with the property owner in an effort to reach a mutual
settlement.
§ If a settlement is reached, the condemnation process is stopped, and the property transaction
proceeds to a real estate closing.
§ If a settlement cannot be reached, the condemnation lawsuit is filed. Even after filing, negotiations
continue between the property owner and the City’s legal representative. Filing of the
condemnation documents allows:
- The City to gain access and title to the subject property so the capital project can proceed
on schedule.
- The City to deposit the appraised value of the property in an escrow account with the Clerk
of Court. These funds may be withdrawn by the property owner immediately upon filing, and
at any time thereafter, with the understanding that additional funds transfer may be required
at the time of final settlement or at the conclusion of litigation.
§ If a condemnation lawsuit is filed, the final trial may not occur for 18 to 24 months; however, a vast
majority of the cases settle prior to final trial. The City’s condemnation attorney remains actively
engaged with the property owner to continue negotiations throughout litigation.
- North Carolina law requires that all condemnation cases go through formal non-binding
mediation, at which an independent certified mediator attempts to facilitate a successful
settlement. For the minority of cases that do not settle, the property owner has the right
to a trial by judge or jury in order to determine the amount of compensation the property
owner will receive.
