COMPANY; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
Executive Director D'Agostino explained the item. Amy Angelo President of Oceana Coffee
presented to the Community Redevelopment Agency (see Exhibit "A").
Board Member Linden clarified the CRA would contribute $1 Million Dollars over a five-year
period; he questioned the anticipated amount of the Palm Beach County Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) Loan. Charles Lesnick of Kiss Kitchens, LLC., explained the project
totaled approximately $7.5 Million, and funding was anticipated via loans and personal capital.
He announced the following HUD approvals for funding: Oceana Coffee ($200k), Florida
Canning Company ($180K), and Kiss Kitchens ($950K).
Ms. Sherry Howard, Deputy Director of Department of Housing and Economic Development,
(Virtual Attendee) explained that Community Development Block Grant Dollars
backed/supported HUD Section 108 Loans. She explained the underwriting process was rigorous
and the project had been approved by Palm Beach County and HUD. Mr. Lesnick announced the
funding would be awarded and available per the approval of the CRA Board. He announced that
HUD approved the funding based upon projections, presentations, job creation, and the benefit
to the community. He announced the anticipated loans and requirements of the Small Business
Administration.
Attorney Baird announced the following funding and sources: $1.33 Million (Palm Beach
County), $1 Million (Town of Lake Park CRA-Grant). Ms. Angelo announced a loan was
anticipated from the Bank of Belle Glade but that she did not have the exact figure.
Mr. Leonard Schwartz, Developer, (Virtual Attendee) provided comments regarding the site
plan.
Board Member Linden questioned if the Bank of Belle Glade was provided a Business Plan. Ms.
Angelo answered, "Yes" and explained their collaboration with the Bank of Belle Glade over the
last two years.
Board Member Michaud questioned the probability of failure of one of the three entities. Mr.
Lesnick explained in an unforeseeable situation, an entity could sell their interest to a successor
company.
Ms. Meri Weymer, Palm Beach County Representative, (Virtual Attendee) clarified the costs of
construction had significantly increased, which increased the overall amount of the loans.
Vice-Chair Glas-Castro questioned if the original site plan was inclusive of Florida Canning and
Kiss Kitchens. Ms. Angelo announced the three entities were a part of the original site plan. Vice-
Chair Glas-Castro announced the following employee projections: Oceana Coffee (10
Employees), Florida Canning (10 Employees), Kiss Kitchens (36 Employees); she commented
there would not be enough parking spaces to accommodate 56 employees if there were only 36
parking spaces available. Ms. Angelo explained the parking spaces would not be utilized at the
same time and the job projections were over 10 years. She announced that 10 employees would
not be at work at the same time (e.g. shift changes).
Vice-Chair Glas-Castro expressed disappointment and commented the original site plan was for
Oceana Coffee. Mr. Emilio Levalo, One A- Architect, suggested referral to the original site plan
application; he explained the application was inclusive of Oceana Coffee, Florida Canning and
Kiss Kitchens. He explained the entities were shown on the drawings, the parking tabulations,
and the site plan approval was based on the different utilizations. He explained the different
utilizations were separated by fire, parking, means of egress, and drive-thru requirements.
Special Call Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting November 02, 2022 Page 3
Board Member Michaud asked for clarification of the construction timeline Attorney Baird read
Section 3 of the Redevelopment Grant Agreement as follows: "Condition Precedent. On or before
November 2, 2022, the Lake Park Group shall submit to the CRA sufficient information, which
in the reasonable discretion of the CRA Commission demonstrates that the total construction cost
for the Project shall exceed Six Million Dollars ($6,000,000.00)". Community Development
Director Nadia DiTommaso explained the construction cost breakdown was included in the
agenda packet; however, the information was provided in June 2022. Additionally, the
information provided in June 2022 was higher than $6 Million Dollars.
Chair O'Rourke apologized for his tardiness. He questioned if the agreement was inclusive of a
claw back provision. Executive Director John D'Agostino explained the agreement was inclusive
of a personal guarantee provision. Attorney Baird referred to paragraph 12 of the Redevelopment
Grant Agreement. Mr. Lesnick announced the Federal Bureau of Investigations, Palm Beach
County, Small Business Administration and the Bank of Belle Glade have vetted the necessary
financials.
Leonard Schwartz and Niamh Kilcoyne (Virtual Attendees) commented in support of approval
of Resolution 75-11-22. Mr. Lesnick reiterated the importance and urgency of approval (e.g.
inflation rates); without the approval of the grant, the project is not viable and the entities are
locked into rates with the Bank of Belle Glade and liable to increase.
The Board requested additional information on the business plans associated with the three
entities; further explanations on their loan(s) breakdown and evidence of financial stability;
information on the loan guarantees discussed; and all additional information related to the
economic impacts associated with the business investment growth and additional economic
growth factors to substantiate the request.
The item was postponed to the Special Call Community Redevelopment Agency Meeting
scheduled for November 16, 2022.
Motion made to postponed Resolution 75-11-22 to the November 16, 2022 Meeting by Board
Member Michaud, Seconded by Board Member Taylor.

Background and Summary
Oceana Logistics International (i.e. Oceana Coffee) is an established business in Palm
Beach County who recently received site plan approval by the Town to build their corporate
7
Item 2.
roasting house facility, retail center and commercial food (ghost) kitchens at 1301 10th
Street (development order enclosed). They have partnered with two additional entities,
Kiss Kitchens LLC and Florida Canning Company to carry out their vision and Oceana
Coffee is a partner in all of the companies. Collectively, they are referred to as the Lake
Park Group. In light of the supply chain issues and increases in material and labor costs,
the project’s originally anticipated construction cost of approximately $5M has now been
updated to $7-$8M (estimated cost breakdown is enclosed). Enclosed is a presentation
from the Lake Park Group that includes additional details on their anticipated operation and
partnership. A detailed presentation to the CRA Board will be provided by the Lake Park
Group as part of this request. The CRA Redevelopment Grant is proposing to grant the
Lake Park Group $200,000 per year, for a period of five years (total of $1M) to assist with
construction costs and ensure the project is able to adhere to their development order.
One of the CRA Master Plan’s Redevelopment Goals and Initiatives is to support small
businesses so as to promote their growth and have them establish Lake Park as a hub for
entrepreneurship. The Plan encourages the provision of economic incentives to further the
CRA’s redevelopment goals. This project will serve as a catalyst redevelopment project
and as such, is consistent with the CRA Master Plan.
Recommended Motion: I move to APPROVE Resolution __-11-22.

Lake Park CRA Presentation
Slide 1
- Good evening, thank you for the opportunity to present our project to the CRA and
the public.
- I am Amy Angelo, owner and founder of Oceana Co ee, along with my husband
Scott Angelo. We are both also partners in the other businesses presented in this
project.
- We are grateful and honored to be considered for such a generous grant from the
Town of Lake Park CRA. This grant will make this project possible and will e ect
tremendous growth for our business, and the Town of Lake Park.
Slide 2
- In a brief overview, we will cover the following…..Overview of the project
Slide 3
- This project brings a unique opportunity to have 3 collaborative businesses under
one roof that will support each other and the local community with jobs and business
opportunities.
- Oceana Co ee
- Kiss Kitchens
- Florida Canning

Slide 4
Oceana Co ee is Palm Beach County’s rst and only award winning specialty co ee
roaster established here in Palm Beach County in 2009. A start up born from pure
passion, this company sprang from a pure desperate need for great co ee and a
popcorn popper on the back porch, moving quickly to the garage, then our rst
location on Old Dixie Hwy in Tequesta.
Slide 5
KISS Kitchens is a start up business and the rst of it’s kind here in Palm Beach
County. Kiss Kitchens will o er professional, commercial kitchen space by the hour in a
state of the art facility. What make KISS kitchens unique and rst of it’s kind, are the
small spaces that can be rented annually by local food entrepreneurs. This will allow for
local food businesses to test a concept, in their own small kitchen, for a much lower
entry fee and ultimately scale to a larger business.
Also, unique to this site is the logistics area and extra storage capacity for businesses
to utilize/rent on an as needed basis. This will allow businesses to scale faster and at a
much lower cost than building their own warehouse and storage facility to ll large
purchase orders when they come in. Oceana Co ee knows this dilemma rst hand and
these experiences of having to turn down large po’s because of lack of infrastructure.
This facility will help facilitate growth and foster small businesses to greater success
than we have seen in the past.
Slide 6
Ghost Kitchens are food businesses that operate out of a shared facility like the one we
are building, utilizing pick up and delivery as their main pathway to the consumer.
Customers can order through apps on their phone or utilize delivery companies to
order and have their meals delivered. This concept has become very popular during the
pandemic and people have realized the convenience and sometimes cost savings of
these meal delivery and meal prep services. At KISS kitchens we have 3 larger kitchens
that can be utilized on an hourly basis through a membership format that will allow for
many more businesses to utilize the space and become a true culinary hub in Lake
Park. These kitchens will be utilized by caterers, healthy food prep companies, meal
delivery services, and various take out concepts.

Slide 7
Florida Canning is a micro canning line that will allow for canning of specialty co ee
beverages as well as other craft beverages that can be imagined and canned. Florida
Canning will o er white label canning service, meaning that any business can bring
their approved liquids to be canned for sale to the public. Lake Park could develop
their own brand of water to sell with a label designed that displays the unique qualities
of Lake Park, as an example. Florida canning will take the burden of the heavy lifting
away from small co ee companies, tea companies, breweries and distilleries that may
not have the capital to purchase their own canning line.
Florida canning will also handle the labeling, lling, and palletizing of product,
ultimately storing this product on site until pick up is scheduled. This kind of service
does not exist currently in our South Florida market.
Slide 8
Economic Growth
Slide 9 | 5 year numbers
The economic impacts of this project can be measured according to the number of
jobs that will be created locally, the construction costs associated with this project, and
the projected outcomes of the revenues generated by these new and expanded
businesses.
Additional economic impact is realized by these new and expanded businesses
spending their money locally for goods and services provided by other businesses in
Palm Beach County.
Palm Beach County itself is positioned as one of the lenders in this project. These
numbers are derived from software used by the county to evaluate lending
opportunities.

Remi is an economic modeling software employed by the county.
“The next generation of economic modeling that builds con dence in your policy
recommendations and examines the economic future of your region.”
Slide 13
Key factors that support this growth:
-The nature of local dollars being spent locally
-Jobs created- what kind of jobs are we creating? SLIDE 14 & 15
-Increased revenue= sales tax dollars SLIDE 16
-Property value at the improved site SLIDE 17 & 18
-Positive impact to the community-stable jobs and increase of population visiting Lake
Park for the new goods and services on a daily basis as well as new employees
commuting and looking to call Lake Park home in our residential neighborhoods. This
has the potential to increase the demand for residential properties in Lake Park,
ultimately positively impacting home values and the tax base in Lake Park with
property taxes. SLIDE 19

WHEREAS, the Grant is contingent on the terms of this Agreement and the Lake Park

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals and for other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
1. Recitals. The recitals above are incorporated herein as if stated again.
2. Grant. The Town of Lake Park Community Redevelopment Agency (the “CRA”)
agrees to provide the Lake Park Group with a Grant in the amount of One Million Dollars
($1,000,000.00) payable in equal increments of Two Hundred Thousand Dollars
($200,000.00) on or before November 16 of each of Five (5) consecutive years, with the
initial payment to be made on or before November 16, 2022, and the final disbursement made
on or before November 16, 2026. The Grant is contingent upon the Lake Park Group’s
redevelopment of the Property consistent with the Development Order rendered by the Town
Commission.
3. Condition Precedent. On or before November 2, 2022, the Lake Park Group
shall submit to the CRA sufficient information, which in the reasonable discretion of the CRA
Commission demonstrates that the total construction cost for the Project shall exceed Six
Million Dollars ($6,000,000.00).
4. Initiation of Construction and Completion. The Completion of the
redevelopment Project shall be in compliance with the Development Order. Construction
must commence within 18 months of Development Order approval, or February 1, 2023, and
a certificate of completion or occupancy must be achieved within 18 months of when
construction is initiated, or by August 1, 2024. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Lake Park
Group shall not be held liable or responsible, nor be in breach of this Agreement, for any
failure or delay in the substantial completion of the Project or any other term of this Agreement
if such failure or delay is the result of a force majeure as defined in paragraph 20.
5. Use of Funds. The funds from the Grant shall be used by the Lake Park Group,
or its successors and assigns in accordance with paragraph 13, if approved by the CRA for
development of the Project as approved in the Development Order for the Property. A copy
of the Development Order is included herein as Exhibit “A” and incorporated by reference
herein and as a term of the Grant.
6. Entitlement To Grant Funds Contingent Upon Initiation and Completion
of Construction. In order to be entitled to retain the initial Two Hundred Thousand Dollar
($200,000.00) installment of the Grant, to be paid on or before November 16, 2022, and any
installment thereafter, the Lake Park Group shall initiate construction no later than February
1, 2023 (except in the event of force majeure as defined in paragraph 20 below), and shall
complete construction, as evidenced by the receipt of a certificate of completion or occupancy
no later than August 1, 2024 (except for events of force majeure as defined in paragraph 20
below). The failure to initiate, continue, or substantially complete construction on or before
these dates shall constitute a breach of the Agreement and shall immediately render the
2
23
Item 2.
CRA’s obligations to provide any further installments null and void. Furthermore, the Lake
Park Group agrees to return to the CRA any funds provided to it that have not already been
deployed into the Project in the event it does not comply with these dates.
7. Subordination. The CRA acknowledges that the Grant Funds provided shall
be on terms that are subordinate to both the Lake Park Group’s previously obtained SBA loan
and any commercially obtained construction loan or other funding utilized to undertake and
construct the Project and the terms and conditions and such fulfillment of the terms contained
herein shall not interfere with the obligations of the Lake Park Group with respect to these
loans.
8. Term of Operation. In order to be excused from the repayment of the funds
from the Grant the Lake Park Group, and/or its successors and assigns shall continuously
operate the businesses known as Oceana Coffee and/or Kiss Kitchens and Florida Canning,
and any affiliated companies, absent force majeure, from the date of the execution of this
Agreement for ten consecutive (10) years, or until October 1, 2032. If at any time during such
10-year term of operation, any or all of the entities comprising the Lake Park Group should
cease operating its business(es) on the Property, it shall be in breach of this Agreement and
the funds granted herein shall be returned to the CRA upon the CRA’s reasonable demand.
9. Sale or Transfer of the Lake Park Group Businesses/Property. Should any
or all of the entities comprising the Lake Park Group, elect to sell or transfer its or their
ownership interests in the Property to any third party during the Term, it or they shall obtain
the written consent of the CRA, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided the
businesses continue to be operated consistent with the Development Order and this
Agreement. The Lake Park Group shall provide the CRA with a written request of its intention
to sell or transfer the Property and/or its businesses at least 90 days in advance of the
proposed sale of its or their ownership interest in the Property. If the CRA approves of the
sale or transfer of the Property and/or the business(es) located thereon, during the term, the
successors or assigns to the Property shall become responsible for compliance with the terms
of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing and supplementing such terms, it shall be
unreasonable for the CRA to not grant its permission provided such sale or transfer is to a
third party who uses its interest in the Property for the same use and purpose and is
employing the same number of employees from the Town of Lake Park as the originating
company(ies).
10. Lien. This Agreement shall be recorded in the property records of Palm Beach
County and shall constitute a lien against the Property, enforceable by foreclosure or for an
action for a money judgement.
11. Guarantees. The President and the AMBRs of the corporate entities
comprising the Lake Park Group shall provide the CRA with a personal and corporate
guarantee as that corporate entity’s collateral for the performance of the obligations under
this Agreement and the Development Order. In the event the Lake Park Group is in breach
of any of the terms of the Development Order or this Agreement the CRA shall be entitled to
hold any of the corporate entities and their President, or AMBRs jointly and severely liable
for the repayment of the Grant Funds as set forth herein.

Item 2.
12. Recovery of Grant funds. In addition to the guarantees in paragraph 11, and
any exercise of its other remedies to recover the Grant Funds pursuant to paragraph 6 and
10, for breach of any of the terms of this Agreement, the CRA may also be entitled to recover
the funds from the Grant paid during the Term in the event the Lake Park Group is not
developing or has not completed the Project in accordance with the Development Order.
13. Assignment Subject To CRA’s Advanced Written Approval. This
Agreement may only be assigned with the written approval of the CRA. Any other purported
assignment shall be null and void.
14. Amendment. This Agreement shall not be revised, changed or amended
except by a written amendment executed by both parties.
15. Governing Law/Venue. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance
with and governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without giving effect to choice of law
rules. Venue shall be in the federal or state courts located in Palm Beach County, Florida.
16. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in duplicate counterparts or
electronically by DocuSign or other recognized software program which when compiled and
taken together shall constitute a single original instrument.
17. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is deemed by a court of
competent jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective shall be reworked and
revised only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability and without invalidating the
remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or
enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.
18. Indemnification. Each Party hereto hereby agrees to indemnify and hold the
other harmless and their elected or appointed officers, employees, agents, and consultants
from and against any and all liability, expense, or damage of any kind or nature and from any
suits or claims, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, on account of any matter,
whether in suit or not, arising out of this Agreement. This provision is not intended to, nor
does it waive the CRA’s rights of sovereign immunity pursuant to Fla. Stat. § 768.28.
19. Attorney Fees. In the event either party is required to enforce the terms of this
Agreement, the prevailing party, following a full adjudication on the merits and the waiving or
exhaustion of all appeals, shall be entitled to the reimbursement of its attorney fees.
20. Force Majeure. Neither party shall be liable for delays in performing its
obligations under this Agreement to the extent that the delay is caused by force majeure,
defined as Acts of God, a pandemic, supply chain for construction materials, labor strikes,
riots, or wars or as otherwise stated herein.
21. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and the terms herein shall inure
to the benefit of and be legally binding upon the Lake Park Group’s successors and assigns.
