Included in Exhibit A of the Interlocal Agreement for Funding for Code Enforcement Officers, the officers would be able to facilitate any funds that may become available through grants for residential improvements (see Attachment I). In coordination with City and CRA staff, the Residential Improvement Grant Program (Program) was created to enhance neighborhood revitalization by providing financial resources that allow residential properties to improve and restore their homes, strengthen community pride, and promote a safe and attractive living environment. CRA and City staff met on October 28, 2025, to discuss preliminary terms to be included in the Program (see Attachment II). City and CRA staff met again on November 23, 2025, with CRA legal to review the statutory limitations and/or support for the Program (see Attachment III). On February 9, 2026, the CRA Board requested a draft Program be presented at the March 9, 2026 Board meeting, and to include driveway repair/expansion as an eligible improvement for grant funding. At the March 9, 2026 meeting, the CRA Board approved the draft terms of the program as outlined in Attachment IV. The CRA Board also requested the Program be included in the Joint CRA-City Meeting on April 14, 2026 (see Attachment V). The draft program is provided as Attachment VI. Currently, CRA and City staff are working towards the final steps for Program launch. It will be brought back before the Board once procurement is completed along with the Program documents and associated contracts.

This Program offers financial assistance in the form of grants to fund eligible improvements to single-family residential properties. The eligible improvements will enable these properties to meet certain City code requirements and decrease code enforcement actions in accordance with the BBCRA Community Redevelopment Plan (“BBCRA Plan”). The Program is designed to enhance neighborhood revitalization by providing financial resources that allow residential properties to improve and restore their homes, strengthen community pride, and promote a safe and attractive living environment within the Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Area (“BBCRA Area”). Individuals may voluntarily apply for the grant under this Program before any code enforcement actions are taken; additionally, individuals with properties subject to City code enforcement may choose to participate in the Program (each individual applying, an “Applicant”). Active participation in the Program is intended to prevent code enforcement actions and temporarily toll any further proceedings for active code enforcement cases for those items that will be addressed by the Program. The BBCRA reserves the right to approve or deny any application to the Program and to deny payment of a grant at any time if, in its sole and absolute discretion, it determines that the application or payment will not advance the goals and objectives established in the BBCRA Plan for redevelopment of the BBCRA Area.

The total funds available under this Program will be distributed equally between Applicants in each of these two categories. The Voluntary Participation category is available to Applicants seeking to voluntarily apply to the Program without any active code enforcement actions against their property. Through this category, individuals may apply for this Program at any time. The Enforcement Participation category is available to Applicants referred to the Program by a City code enforcement officer. These Applicants may choose to participate in the Program to prevent further code enforcement proceedings by timely submitting an application after referral by a code enforcement officer. City code enforcement offers will not issue citations for code violations while an Applicant is actively participating in the Program, for those items that are being addressed through the Program. New violations may subject a participant to removal from the Program. Additionally, current City code enforcement actions will be temporarily tolled 1) after referral to the Program by code enforcement officer but before the application is due 2) while a timely submitted, complete application is under review, and 3) while an Applicant is actively participating in the Program consistent with the Program’s requirements.

By submitting documentation for payment, the Applicant warrants that all bills for which the Applicant is directly responsible for related to the project are paid in full including, but not limited to, all contractors, labor, materials, related fees, and permits. This does not include any payment that the CRA will make to a Registered Vendor through the Program.

Nor shall issuance of grant funding result in any obligation on the part of the BBCRA to any third party. The BBCRA is not required to verify that entities that have contracted with the Applicant have been paid in full, or that such entities have paid any subcontractors in full.

The business previously received an administrative extension of 60 days and is now requesting additional time to fully utilize the approved reimbursement amount of $2,500. Prior to the original reimbursement deadline of May 8, 2026, the business completed several eligible marketing campaigns with total expenses exceeding the approved reimbursement amount. However, a portion of the expenses were paid in cash, which does not comply with the Program Rules & Regulations. Per the terms of the grant agreement, reimbursement requests must include acceptable proof of payment, such as a cancelled check or credit card statement, and payments in cash and/or cryptocurrency are not eligible for reimbursement. The requested extension would allow the business additional time to complete and properly document eligible marketing expenditures in accordance with program guidelines. If approved, the reimbursement submission deadline would be extended to September 7, 2026. Staff recommends approval of the 90-day extension request.

To address the need, the goal of the BBCRA is to leverage publicly owned real estate and development incentives to increase affordable residential opportunities in the BBCRA area. The goal of this ITN is to secure developers to construct single-family residential properties on existing lots in order to increase the housing supply in the CRA Area. This Development of Affordable/Workforce Infill Housing ITN is seeking Proposals to provide affordable and workforce housing within the CRA Area through the acquisition and redevelopment of BBCRA-owned properties (the “Project”). The CRA properties available for the Project (the “Project Sites”) are located as described in Attachment “A,” Parcel 1 120 4926-3384-6902, v. 2 Descriptions/Maps. Proposers are invited to submit Proposals to develop one or more of the Project Sites. Preference will be given to Proposers who propose to develop all Project Sites, and then to Proposers who propose to develop multiple Project Sites. Proposers should also indicate whether they are interested in receiving information about future development opportunities of similar sites within the CRA Area. Proposers are invited to propose creative solutions, including but not limited to using a variety of construction methods, the incorporation of accessory dwelling units as may be permitted by the City of Boynton Beach codes, and use of a template that could be replicated on multiple sites. The Project Sites vary in lot sizes and Future Land Use Classifications. Each lot is located within the Heart of Boynton District, which is described in the 2016 BBCRA Community Redevelopment Plan (the “BBCRA Plan”). The BBCRA Plan may be accessed online at https://www.boyntonbeachcra.com/home/showpublisheddocument/14/637296289931970000 (see pages 105-117). It is the responsibility of each Proposer to review the City of Boynton Beach Land Development Regulations, and applicable site plan and design guidelines and limitations. All Proposals and Projects must be in conformance with and in furtherance of the BBCRA Plan. 2.Community and Economic Setting The City of Boynton Beach (City), with a population of eighty thousand (80,000), is the third largest city in Palm Beach County, Florida. It is located approximately forty-five (45) miles north of Miami and fifteen (15) miles south of West Palm Beach. This puts it in the heart of southeast Florida’s rapidly growing tri-county Miami-Dade/Broward/Palm Beach metropolitan area. Boynton Beach has direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway, Interstate 95 (I-95) and the Florida Turnpike. It also has a market of more than six (6) million people within a two-hour radius and ready access to three international airports, two major rail lines, as well as the Tri-Rail regional commuter rail system. 3.Surveys and Appraisals Aerial boundary and parcel maps along with a copy of the property surveys are included with this ITN as Attachments “A,” Aerial Map/Parcel Map and “B,” Surveys of BBCRA Owned Properties.

The confidentiality of proprietary information from competing Proposers shall be maintained to the extent permitted by law. In addition to meeting the minimum requirements of this ITN as described in Paragraphs 9 and 10, each Proposal will be evaluated based on the information provided and on the following criteria, which are listed below in order of importance. As noted below, adequate capability to successfully undertake the proposed Project is a minimum standard which shall be met before any other criterion is considered. a. Capability of the Proposer and Development Team. The primary focus of the evaluation shall be on the prior relevant experience, qualifications, and financial capacity of the Proposer (and financial partner, if any is identified and to the extent firmly committed) considering. Note that if a Proposer’s qualifications and financial capacity are not considered adequate to successfully undertake the Project, the Proposer will not be considered no matter what the Proposal’s merits are on other criteria. Adequacy of qualifications, relative qualifications, and capacity will be considered comparative criteria weighed along with the other criteria. 8 127 4926-3384-6902, v. 2 b. Project Viability. Proposals will be evaluated for financial, technical, and practical capabilities to successfully and timely complete the Project(s). c. Project Scope.

However, Proposers seeking to develop individual Project sites are still encouraged to apply. d. Fulfilment of the CRA’s requirements and objectives for the Project as stated in Paragraph 1. This would include the operational efficiency, aesthetic quality, and the amenities of the Project. The proposed Project’s ability to contribute to the Heart of Boynton District with a vision to enrich the neighborhood by investing in housing, have a high-quality architecture and aesthetic appeal, and contain initiatives beyond what is required and/or that are unique solutions, will be considered. e. Local Work. Preference will be given to Proposals that contain a proposed plan or program to use local businesses, contractors, sub-contractors, and laborers in the Project. After the BBCRA staff reviews the proposals for completeness and evaluates the proposals based on the criteria above, the BBCRA staff will present the results of the review and evaluation process to the BBCRA Board at a public meeting. The Proposers will present their proposals and their PowerPoint slide presentations before the BBCRA Board at their regular scheduled meetings in the City Commission Chambers at City Hall located at 100 E. Ocean Avenue. In the selection of the successful Proposer (if any), the BBCRA Board will consider all Proposals that meet the minimum submission requirements for review, the BBCRA staff review, the BBCRA Advisory Board recommendation if required, and/or any other relevant data. At the conclusion of the public presentations, a Proposer may be selected by the BBCRA Board. However, the BBCRA Board is under no obligation to select a Proposer regardless of their ranking, and can, at its sole discretion, opt to terminate the ITN process or continue the process to a subsequent meeting. The CRA may also select multiple Proposers but shall not award the same Project Site to any two developers. The existence of a contractual relationship between a Proposer and the BBCRA is contingent upon successful negotiations between the BBCRA and a selected Proposer, and execution of an Agreement by both parties. Therefore, upon selection of a successful Proposer, the BBCRA and the successful Proposer will then enter into negotiations for a Purchase and Development Agreement that will contain terms substantially similar to those contained in the successful proposal and this ITN. i. The Purchase and Development Agreement must be in a form approved by the BBCRA Board and BBCRA legal counsel. 9 128 4926-3384-6902, v. 2 ii. If the BBCRA and the successful Proposer are not able to agree upon a Purchase and Development Agreement satisfactory to both parties within ninety (90) days of the selection of the successful Proposer, Proposer shall have the right to terminate the negotiations. The BBCRA may terminate negotiations at any time for any reason. iii. If the BBCRA sends an agreed-upon Purchase and Development Agreement, or sends a Purchase and Development Agreement with a communication that informs the Proposer that the agreement constitutes the BBCRA’s final offer, and Proposer fails to return an executed copy of the provided Purchase and Development Agreement within 30 days of receipt of such agreement from the BBCRA, the negotiations are deemed terminated unless the BBCRA explicitly extends the deadline in writing. iv. The BBCRA may withdraw its offer of agreement, including a final offer, at any time prior to acceptance of such agreement. Upon termination of negotiations or withdrawal of offer of agreement, the BBCRA may move forward as it deems appropriate, which may include entering into negotiations with another Proposer, re-advertising the ITN, electing to terminate the ITN process, or any other action it deems to be in the best interest of the BBCRA. Any transfer of the property from the BBCRA to a Proposer for less than market value will be subject to approval of the City of Boynton Beach City Commission. Other proposals may be subject to approval of the City of Boynton Beach City Commission. 14. Tentative Schedule. The following tentative schedule is anticipated for actions related to this ITN.

Lennar has been in continuous operation for over 70 years and has been publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange since 1972. Lennar’s success is rooted in its core principles of quality, value, and integrity, which guide its approach to community development, corporate governance, and customer satisfaction. A key strength of the company is the stability and depth of its leadership team, with an average senior leadership tenure exceeding 30 years, providing disciplined execution through multiple real estate cycles. Commitment to Community Lennar is deeply committed to giving back to the communities in which it builds. Established in 1989, the Lennar Foundation supports initiatives focused on at-risk children, medical research, education, and community development. Lennar allocates $1,000 per home delivered to the Foundation to support its Focused Acts of Caring and grant programs. In 2025, Lennar delivered 82,583 homes nationwide and contributed approximately $80 million to the Lennar Foundation. In 2026, Lennar again anticipates Foundation contributions to exceed $80 million, underscoring Lennar’s long-term commitment to meaningful community investment. Why We Are Right For This Project Lennar has the experience and capability to plan and execute an exceptional community in this location. A partnership with Lennar will not only accomplish the City’s goal of providing workforce housing but will provide much-needed housing options that will aid in the revitalization of the Boynton Beach area. Each home has been carefully engineered to allow it to be built as efficiently as possible without sacrificing quality. This, in conjunction with Lennar’s national buying power, would allow Lennar to build these homes at a cost point that supports long-term cost efficiency and overall value for future homeowners. As a volume production builder, Lennar’s focus is to construct and bring homes to market as soon as possible. At the end of Lennar’s fiscal year ending in Nov 2025, Lennar had $3.4 Billion of cash on hand and no outstanding balance on its credit facility of $3.1 Billion. Our stable capital position allows us financial flexibility to build without the need for 3rd party financing. Lennar intends to self-finance the construction of all homes in this community. 173 4 Palm Atlantic also has extensive experience building residential communities in the Palm Beach County area, with multiple active communities in the Delray area. The Palm Atlantic Division is on pace to hundreds of new homes in Palm Beach County this year alone. As such we have a trade base already in place that is ready, willing, and able to begin work on this community. If selected as the developer for this ITN, Lennar is committed to obtaining all permits and, upon the receipt of permits, beginning construction immediately. 174 5 Proposed Use of the Site Proposed Community Lennar proposes subdividing 2 of the 5 parcels that make up the Subject Property into 7 homesites. Each of these homesites could accommodate a 30’ wide home, to allow for a consistent sales process the same home would be built on each of the 7 homesites. This home provides a spacious floor plan, and multiple elevations would be constructed to allow for diversity among nearby homesites. The relevant specifications for each home are summarized below: • Proposed Plan o 1,504 square feet o 3 Bedroom, 2 Bath o 2 car garage Floorplans for the homes are attached Exhibit A and elevations for each home are attached Exhibit B. As discussed above, Lennar’s planned homes have been carefully engineered to allow construction to be as efficient as possible from a cost perspective, without sacrificing quality. Each home would include energy efficient appliances, including Refrigerator, Washer and Dryer, impact windows, and a paver driveway. Proposed Completion Time Please note that Lennar will require that the Project Agreement allow for a reasonable due diligence period (60-90 days). The Project Agreement would also need to be subject to approval of the project by Lennar’s Corporate Investment Committee (“CIC Appro val”). This review will take place prior to the expiration of the due diligence period. Following due diligence, Lenner would pursue a lot split on the two oversized homesites. Lennar anticipates this process may take 4 months. After the approval of the split, Lennar would be solely responsible for obtaining building permits for all homes. If acceptable to the City, Lennar is willing to submit building permit application to the City’s Building Department for review while working to obtain lot split approval. This will allow construction to begin shortly after all Approvals are obtained. Please note that Lennar is not seeking relief from any permit or impact fees. Once Lennar has building permits in hand, it will start construction on at least 4 homes a month. If Lennar will have Building Permits within 30 days after all Approvals are granted, then construction on all homes will have started by the 3rd month after all Approvals are granted. These homes generally take about four (4) months to build from the start of construction to receipt of a Certificate of Occupancy. Accordingly, all 7 homes would have a Certificate of Occupancy within 7 months after all Approvals are granted. 175 6 A construction schedule reflecting the timeline proposed above is attached as Exhibit C. Acquisition Terms: Lennar proposes acquiring the Subject Property for a total purchase price of $350,000. Closing shall occur following the City’s approval of the proposed homesite split on the two parcels to be subdivided. All deposit requirements, due diligence periods, and additional transactional terms are further detailed in the Letter of Interest, which is included as part of this submission. Please note that Lennar is flexible on the closing timing of this acquisition given size of the total development and that select parcels are ready to build. Deed Restriction: All homes will remain affordable for a period of no less than 15 years with a deed restriction commencing from the date of closing transferring ownership from Lennar to the first purchaser of the developed homesite. Sales: The proposed sales process will mirror the established and successful procedures utilized within the Palm Beach County Workforce Housing Program (WHP). Due to the anticipated demand for workforce housing units, a lottery-based selection process will be implemented to ensure fairness, transparency, and compliance with WHP requirements. Interested purchasers will be required to obtain eligibility approval through the Palm Beach County WHP program and submit all required documentation prior to being entered into the lottery, including verification of income eligibility, proof of funds for required deposits, and completion of a formal lottery application. Applications will be accepted during a defined submission period, after which eligible applicants will be randomly selected. Selected buyers will be notified and provided with a limited timeframe to execute purchase agreements and submit deposits, with alternate applicants maintained in the event selected buyers do not proceed. To further support local workforce housing goals, the Division will coordinate with the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA), Boynton Beach SHIP, and City staff to prioritize outreach and marketing efforts toward Boynton Beach residents prior to expanding marketing to the broader countywide applicant pool. Public outreach may include informational sessions, digital and print marketing, and coordination with local employers and community organizations. This targeted approach ensures local residents are provided with early access to homeownership opportunities while maintaining compliance with County WHP program requirements and promoting equitable access to available units. 176 7 Lennar Palm Atlantic Projects: Lennar’s Palm Atlantic Division serves as the lead developer for the majority of its new communities.

BUYER Lennar Homes, LLC By: Name: Sam Goldberg Title: Land Acquisition Manager SELLER Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency By: Name: Title: 216 Exhibit A Proposed Use of the Site Proposed Community Zoning • Current Zoning: R1 – Minimum Setbacks: Front: 25 FT | Corner Side: 25 FT | Rear: 20 FT • Intended Zoning: R1A – Minimum Setbacks: Front: 15 FT | Corner Side: 5 FT | Interior Side: 5 FT | Rear: 10 FT Lennar proposes splitting the Subject Property located at 419 N Seacrest Blvd, Boynton Beach, FL to develop two (2) homesites. The parcel is currently zoned R1 and Lennar is seeking a rezoning to R1A to accommodate the proposed Columbus floor plan. The Columbus plan provides a spacious two-story floor plan, and multiple elevations would be constructed to enhance the home’s curb appeal. The relevant specifications for the home are summarized below: • Columbus (2 Floors) o 1,880 sq. ft. Total Living Area (Under Roof: 2,344 sq. ft.) o 4 Bedroom, 2.5 Bath o 2 car garage o Dimensions: 30 FT wide x 42 FT long; Backyard Patio: 4 FT x 6 FT o 1st Floor Living: 795 sq. ft.; 2nd Floor Living: 1,085 sq. ft. Floorplans for the homes are attached Exhibit B and elevations for each home are attached Exhibit C. Preliminary proposed location of the homes on a split homesite are shown on Exhibit D. As discussed above, Lennar’s planned homes have been carefully engineered to allow construction to be as efficient as possible from a cost perspective, without sacrificing quality. Each home would include energy efficient appliances, including Refrigerator, Washer and Dryer, and impact windows. Lennar will include privacy fencing and a landscape buffer off Seacrest Boulevard. Proposed Completion Time Please note that Lennar will require that the Project Agreement allow for a reasonable due diligence period (60-90 days). The Project Agreement would also need to be subject to approval of the project by Lennar’s Corporate Investment Committee (“CIC Approval”). This review will take place prior to the expiration of the due diligence period. Following due diligence, Lennar would close on the Subject Property upon the CRA’s rezoning and split of the property to R1A. After the approval of the rezoning, Lennar will solely be responsible for obtaining building permits for the homes and demolition of the existing structure. 217 This will allow construction to begin shortly after all Approvals are obtained. Please note that Lennar is not seeking relief from any permit or impact fees. Deed Restriction: All homes will remain affordable for a period of no less than 15 years with a deed restriction commencing from the date of closing transferring ownership from Lennar to the first purchaser of the developed homesite. Sales: Lennar intends to sell the two homes on this property at the Moderate 2 income limit established by the Palm Beach County Workforce Housing Program (WHP) through a lottery system described below. The proposed sales process will mirror the established and successful procedures utilized within the Palm Beach County Workforce Housing Program (WHP). Due to the anticipated demand for workforce housing units, a lottery-based selection process will be implemented to ensure fairness, transparency, and compliance with WHP requirements. Interested purchasers will be required to obtain eligibility approval through the Palm Beach County WHP program and submit all required documentation prior to being entered into the lottery, including verification of income eligibility, proof of funds for required deposits, and completion of a formal lottery application. Applications will be accepted during a defined submission period, after which eligible applicants will be randomly selected. Selected buyers will be notified and provided with a limited timeframe to execute purchase agreements and submit deposits, with alternate applicants maintained in the event selected buyers do not proceed. To further support local workforce housing goals, the Division will coordinate with the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA), Boynton Beach SHIP, and City staff to prioritize outreach and marketing efforts toward Boynton Beach residents prior to expanding marketing to the broader countywide applicant pool. Public outreach may include informational sessions, digital and print marketing, and coordination with local employers and community organizations. This targeted approach ensures local residents are provided with early access to homeownership opportunities while maintaining compliance with County WHP program requirements and promoting equitable access to available units. 218 Exhibit B 219 220 Exhibit C 221 Exhibit D 222 April 23rd, 2026 Attn: Timonthy Tack Assistant Director Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency 100 East Ocean Avenue 4th floor Boynton Beach, FL 33435 This letter constitutes a non-binding letter of intent (“LOI”) between Lennar Homes and/or its affiliated entities (“Buyer”) and Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency (“Seller”), which outlines the general terms and conditions for the purchase and sale of the Property. 1.

As part of Lennar’s commitment to quality, value and integrity, your Home is covered by a one-year limited warranty on workmanship, systems and structural elements (also known as the “Lennar Limited Warranty” or “Limited Warranty”). The Lennar Limited Warranty is detailed in this document as to the scope of your Warranty coverage. Please take the time to become familiar with this Warranty document and read it in its entirety. It defines our responsibilities to you, and your responsibilities to your Home. Please keep in mind that the proper maintenance of your Home is vital, and if you do not perform the required maintenance on your Home on a regular basis, it can and will limit your Warranty rights. While we are confident that Lennar can resolve any Warranty items to your satisfaction, you should be aware that this Limited Warranty includes a requirement that all disputes be submitted to binding arbitration. Lennar is happy to answer any questions that you have about your Lennar Limited Warranty, or specific construction standards and how they apply to your Home. However, please know that the content of this Warranty Booklet controls Lennar’s obligations to you and your Home to the extent that there may be any differences between the content of this document and your conversations with any of our Lennar Associates. Congratulations again - and enjoy your new Home! 229 9018181v.2 2 2 1-Year Single Family Home Warranty Express Limited Warranty: The “Lennar Limited Warranty” Under the Lennar Limited Warranty, the seller of your Home (“Lennar”) commits that the components of your Home will perform to the standards listed in this Warranty Booklet. Specific components of your Home are covered for one year under the Lennar Limited Warranty, and Lennar’s obligations are expressly limited to those standards and for only the one- year time period as explained below. Please take the time to review the section titled “What Is Not Covered By The Lennar Limited Warranty” which lists those items excluded from the Lennar Limited Warranty. The Lennar Limited Warranty commences on the date of closing of the original purchase of the Home (the “Closing Date”). The protection periods provided below are referred to in the Lennar Limited Warranty as “Warranty Term.” Workmanship, Systems and Structural Protection For one year from the Closing Date, Lennar warrants that the components of the Home set forth in the Workmanship, System and Structural Components Standards found on pages 14 through 51 of this Warranty Booklet will perform in accordance with those Standards. If a component is not specifically listed in the Standards, then it is not warranted under the Lennar Limited Warranty or otherwise. If a component is performing in accordance with the Standards, then Lennar has no further obligations under the Lennar Limited Warranty. Lennar reserves the sole right to determine the repairs and/or replacements necessary to meet the Standards and may, at its sole election, implement repairs in phases to determine if structural components can be stabilized as part of meeting its obligations under the Structural Standards. Please note that a limited number of items in the Standards are subject to a one-time repair obligation. Transferability All of your rights and obligations under the Lennar Limited Warranty shall, unless previously released by you or your successor, fully transfer to each successor owner of the Home, including any mortgagee in possession, for the remainder of the Warranty Term and any transfer shall in no way affect, increase or reduce the coverage under the Lennar Limited Warranty for its unexpired term. If you sell your Home during the Warranty Term, you agree to give this Warranty Booklet to the successor owner to inform the successor owner of warranty rights and to otherwise make it possible for the successor owner to fulfill the successor owner’s obligations under the terms of the Lennar Limited Warranty. If you are an owner other than the original purchaser of the Home, you are bound by all the terms and conditions of the Lennar Limited Warranty including, but not limited to, claims procedures and the requirement to submit any disputes that may arise under the Lennar Limited Warranty to binding arbitration. 230 9018181v.2 3 3 1-Year Single Family Home Warranty Requesting Lennar Limited Warranty Service If you believe that a component of your Home is not performing to the Lennar Limited Warranty standards during the Warranty Term, you must send the appropriate Notice of Workmanship/Systems Claim Form or Notice of Structural Claim Form (located at this back of this booklet) (“Notice of Claim”) to Lennar. The Notice of Claim must list the specific warranty claim and the date that you first observed the condition that is the subject of the claim. You must notify Lennar of any observed component that you believe is not performing to Lennar Limited Warranty standards as soon as possible and in no event later than the date the applicable warranty expires, by sending the Notice of Claim to the appropriate Customer Care office. We must receive your Notice of Claim not later than thirty (30) days after Limited Warranty expires or we will have no further obligation to you under the Lennar Limited Warranty. Lennar is not responsible for repairs or any other costs or expenses (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and engineers’ fees) incurred by you prior to the date you give Lennar a Notice of Claim. In the event that you fail to notify us and give us the opportunity to inspect and repair the conditions giving rise your claim, Lennar will not be responsible for any repairs or any other costs or expenses (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ and engineers’ fees) you incur to address the claim. We will respond to a timely Notice of Workmanship or System Claim within thirty (30) days and complete any warranted repairs within sixty (60) days of receipt of your written Notice of Claim to us unless (i) you or other events beyond our reasonable control delay our completion (including a failure to allow prompt inspections of your Home), or (ii) the condition reasonably requires more than sixty (60) days to properly repair. If we determine that any of the Workmanship or Systems items you report to us are not covered by the Lennar Limited Warranty, we will endeavor to advise you in writing within thirty (30) days of our determination of no coverage. Additional time may be required for us to assess structural claims and evaluate our response. As such, we will respond to any Notice of Structural Claim within sixty (60) days of receipt of your written Notice of Structural Claim unless you or other events beyond our control delay our response (including a failure to allow prompt inspections of your Home). Additional time may be required to investigate, design, implement and/or complete structural repairs beyond the sixty (60) days by which we commit to complete Workmanship/Systems repairs. If we determine that any of the Structural items you report to us are not covered by the Lennar Limited Warranty, we will endeavor to advise you in writing within thirty (30) days of our determination of no coverage. Investigation of claims often requires inspection of the Home, and under certain circumstances, invasive testing might be needed. We may request additional documents or information from you, and you agree as part of the Lennar Limited Warranty to fully cooperate with the investigation of your claim. By submitting a Notice of Claim, you agree to grant Lennar and/or its representatives prompt and complete access to your Home during normal business hours of 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. to inspect, repair and conduct tests in your Home as we may deem necessary. If you refuse to allow us access to your Home, such denial of access shall void the Lennar Limited Warranty with respect to your claim. Lennar reserves the option to repair, replace or pay you the reasonable cost of repair or replacement for any warranted and covered claim. Prior to Lennar undertaking repairs, replacement or payment, you agree to assign to Lennar all claims you may have against any other person or entity who Lennar or you believe may have any responsibility associated with the warranted and covered claim. If you believe that we have not met our obligations under the Lennar Limited Warranty, you may seek resolution of any claim you may have pursuant to the mediation/arbitration provisions set forth in the following section of the Warranty Booklet. 231 9018181v.2 4 4 1-Year Single Family Home Warranty Mediation/Arbitration Of Disputes The terms “Buyer” and “Seller” as used in this section of your warranty shall have the same meaning as set forth in your Purchase and Sale Agreement. By purchasing a Lennar home and receiving this warranty, Buyer specifically agrees that this transaction involves interstate commerce and that any Dispute (as hereinafter defined) shall first be submitted to mediation and, if not settled during mediation, shall thereafter be submitted to binding arbitration as provided by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§1 et seq.) and not by or in a court of law or equity. “Disputes” (whether contract, warranty, tort, statutory or otherwise), shall include, but are not limited to, any and all controversies, disputes or claims (1) arising under, or related to, your Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Property, the Community or any dealings between Buyer and Seller; (2) arising by virtue of any representations, promises or warranties alleged to have been made by Seller or Seller’s representative; and (3) relating to personal injury or property damage alleged to have been sustained by Buyer, Buyer’s children or other occupants of the Property, or in the Community. Buyer has executed this Agreement on behalf of his or her children and other occupants of the Property with the intent that all such parties be bound hereby. Any Dispute shall be submitted for binding arbitration within a reasonable time after such Dispute has arisen. Nothing herein shall extend the time period by which a claim or cause of action may be asserted under the applicable statute of limitations or statute of repose, and in no event shall the Dispute be submitted for arbitration after the date when institution of a legal or equitable proceeding based on the underlying claims in such Dispute would be barred by the applicable statute of limitations or statute of repose. Any and all mediations commenced by Buyer and Seller shall be filed with and administered by the American Arbitration Association or any successor thereto (“AAA”) in accordance with the AAA’s Home Construction Mediation Procedures in effect on the date of the request. If there are no Home Construction Mediation Procedures currently in effect, then the AAA’s Construction Industry Mediation Rules in effect on the date of such request shall be utilized. Unless mutually waived in writing by the parties, submission to mediation is a condition precedent to either party taking further action with regard to any matter covered hereunder. If the Dispute is not fully resolved by mediation, the Dispute shall be submitted to binding arbitration and administered by the AAA in accordance with the AAA’s Home Construction Arbitration Rules in effect on the date of the request. If there are no Home Construction Arbitration Rules currently in effect, then the AAA’s Construction Industry Arbitration Rules in effect on the date of such request shall be utilized. Any judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in and enforced by any court having jurisdiction over such Dispute. If the claimed amount exceeds $250,000.00 or includes a demand for punitive damages, the Dispute shall be heard and determined by three arbitrators; however, if mutually agreed to by the parties, then the Dispute shall be heard and determined by one arbitrator. Arbitrators shall have expertise in the area(s) of Dispute, which may include legal expertise if legal issues are involved. All decisions respecting the arbitrability of any Dispute shall be decided by the arbitrator(s). At the request of either Buyer or Seller, the award of the arbitrator(s) shall be accompanied by detailed written findings of fact and conclusions of law. Except as may be required by law or for confirmation of an award, neither a party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both parties. The waiver or invalidity of any portion of this Section shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining portions of this Section. Buyer and Seller further agree (1) that any Dispute involving Seller’s affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents shall also be subject to mediation and arbitration as set forth herein, and shall not be pursued in a court of law or equity; (2) that Seller may, at its sole election, include Seller’s contractors, subcontractors and suppliers, as well as any warranty company and insurer as parties in the mediation and arbitration; and (3) that the mediation and arbitration will be limited to the parties specified herein. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Buyer and Seller agree that no finding or stipulation of fact, no conclusion of law, and no arbitration award in any other arbitration, judicial, or similar proceeding shall be given preclusive or collateral estoppel effect in any arbitration hereunder unless there is mutuality of parties. In addition, Buyer and Seller further agree that no finding or stipulation of fact, no conclusion of law, and no arbitration award in any arbitration hereunder shall be given preclusive or collateral estoppel effect in any other arbitration, judicial, or similar proceeding unless there is mutuality of parties. 232 9018181v.2 5 5 1-Year Single Family Home Warranty Unless otherwise recoverable by law or statute, each of Buyer and Seller shall bear its own costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and paraprofessional fees, for any mediation and arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Buyer or Seller unsuccessfully contests the validity or scope of arbitration in a court of law or equity, the noncontesting party shall be awarded reasonable attorneys’ fees, paraprofessional fees and expenses incurred in defending such contest, including such fees and costs associated with any appellate proceedings. In addition, if Buyer or Seller fails to abide by the terms of a mediation settlement or arbitration award, the other party shall be awarded reasonable attorneys’ fees, paraprofessional fees and expenses incurred in enforcing such settlement or award. Buyer may obtain additional information concerning the rules of the AAA by visiting its website at www.adr.org or by writing the AAA at 335 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10017. Seller supports the principals set forth in the Consumer Due Process Protocol developed by the National Consumer Dispute Advisory Committee and agrees to the following: Notwithstanding the requirements of arbitration stated in this Agreement, Buyer shall have the option, after pursuing mediation as provided herein, to seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of the court’s jurisdiction in lieu of proceeding to arbitration. This option does not apply to any appeal from a decision by a small claims court. Seller agrees to pay for one (1) day of mediation (mediator fees plus any administrative fees relating to the mediation). Any mediator and associated administrative fees incurred thereafter shall be shared equally by the parties. The filing fees and case service fees for any claim pursued via arbitration shall be apportioned as provided in the Home Construction Arbitration Rules of the AAA or other applicable rules. The fees of the arbitrator(s) shall be shared equally by the parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if either Seller or Buyer seeks injunctive relief, and not monetary damages, from a court because irreparable damage or harm would otherwise be suffered by either party before mediation or arbitration could be conducted, such actions shall not be interpreted to indicate that either party has waived the right to mediate or arbitrate. The right to mediate and arbitrate should also not be considered waived by the filing of a counterclaim by either party once a claim for injunctive relief had been filed with a court. 233 9018181v.2 6 6 1-Year Single Family Home Warranty What’s Not Covered By Your Lennar Limited Warranty In addition to other limitations and exclusions set forth in this Lennar Limited Warranty and the accompanying Workmanship, Systems and Structural Standards, the Lennar Limited Warranty does not provide coverage for the following items, which are specifically excluded: 1.

You are obligated to care for your Home in such a way as to prevent or minimize damage to it and to properly maintain the Home. You should be aware that all homes go through a period of settlement and movement. During this period, your Home or components of your Home may experience some material shrinkage, cracking and other events which are normal and customary. Remember that you are responsible for proper maintenance of your Home including maintaining the original grades around your Home, planting trees and shrubs at a proper distance from your Home and conforming to generally accepted landscape practices for your region. Changing the drainage and grading patterns or trapping water near your Home as a result of homeowner changes in grades and landscaping may cause damage to your foundation. Disclaimer of Implied Warranties. Except as prohibited by laws of the state in which the Home is located, all other warranties, express or implied, including but not limited to any implied warranty of habitability, are hereby expressly disclaimed and waived. The terms of the Lennar Limited Warranty shall not be added to or varied either orally or in writing, and you agree to immediately notify Lennar if you believe any employee or agent of Lennar has added to or varied, either orally or in writing, the terms of the Lennar Limited Warranty. Such notification shall not be deemed as a modification of the agreement regardless of whether Lennar responds to the notice either verbally or in writing. In the event that any provision of the Lennar Limited Warranty is determined to be unenforceable in your state, such determination shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of the Lennar Limited Warranty. Cap on Lennar Limited Warranty. Lennar’s total financial obligations under the Lennar Limited Warranty are limited to the original sales price of your Home. This cap is calculated based on the cumulative total of all repairs, replacements or payments made during the Lennar Limited Warranty. Our costs of designing, accomplishing and monitoring repair to your Home are included in this cumulate total. Consequential Damages Not Covered. Lennar shall not be liable for, and you expressly waive recovery of, any consequential damages that may result from the condition of any component of the Home, including but limited to: any diminution in value of the Home before or after repairs are performed; lost profits; damages to personal property; any personal injury of any kind including physical or mental pain and suffering and emotional distress, and any medical or hospital expenses; costs of food, moving and storage, relocation expenses, or rental value of the Home or any other costs due to loss of use, inconvenience or annoyance during repairs. Lennar will, however, reimburse you for reasonable costs of temporary hotel accommodations and a reasonable daily food allowance for such period of time that the repairs required by the claim are so extensive that you cannot reasonably reside in the Home during the repairs. Other Coverage. Lennar shall not be responsible for, and the Lennar Limited Warranty shall not cover, any damages, costs or expenses that are covered by your homeowners’ insurance or other insurance, government, or third party reimbursement programs. To the extent permitted by law, Buyer and Buyer’s insurance carrier waive any right of subrogation that Buyer or its insurance carrier may have in relation to any claim that may be made under this Warranty. Not an Insurance Policy. The Lennar Limited Warranty is not an insurance policy and Lennar does not provide you any insurance through the Lennar Limited Warranty or otherwise. You should always obtain homeowners’ insurance to protect your Home, and your bank or other mortgage provider may require homeowners’ insurance if you have a mortgage. Discretion to Repair, Replace or Make Payment. Lennar reserves the option, at its sole discretion, to repair, replace or pay you the reasonable cost of repair or replacement for any claim made under this Lennar Limited Warranty. The design method and manner of any repair shall also be at Lennar’s sole discretion. Warranty Term Not Extended. The warranty term of the Lennar Limited Warranty shall not be extended by any repair, replacement or payment made under the Lennar Limited Warranty. There shall be no warranty, express or implied, arising from repair or replacement work performed by or on behalf of Lennar except for the remaining original Warranty Term. Limitations on Structural Repairs. Structural repairs are limited to only those (i) repairs of damage to load-bearing portions of your Home that are necessary to restore their load-bearing function; (ii) repair of those non-load bearing portions damaged by the condition that gives rise to the claim and whose repair is necessary to make your Home safe, sanitary or otherwise livable; and (iii) repair and cosmetic correction of only those surfaces, finishes and coverings, original to the Home, that were damaged by the condition giving rise to the claim or by the repair of the condition giving rise to the claim. 235 9018181v.2 8 8 1-Year Single Family Home Warranty Limitations on Post-Repair Condition of Home. Repairs undertaken under the Lennar Limited Warranty are intended to restore the Home to approximately the same condition as existed prior to the claim, but not necessarily to like- new condition. Previously Known Conditions. The Lennar Limited Warranty covers only those conditions which first occur during the term of the Lennar Limited Warranty. In addition, any conditions you knew about prior to the Effective Date of Lennar Limited Warranty such as items identified in the “walk-through,” “punch-list,” or in the case of a previously owned home, conditions that were identified on a home inspection report or were apparent through any reasonable inspection are not covered by the Lennar Limited Warranty. 236 9018181v.2 9 9 1-Year Single Family Home Warranty State Specific Limitations/Clarifications Certain states have special laws that impact new home warranties. If your Home is located in one of the states listed below, the information set forth for your state modifies or adds to the terms of this Warranty. If your Home is not located in one of the following states, the following language is inapplicable to you and your Lennar Limited Warranty. To the extent any applicable state statute invalidates any specific provision of this Warranty, the remaining provisions of the Warranty shall remain in full force and effect. Georgia Lennar and Homeowner expressly agree that the arbitration provisions set forth in this Lennar Limited Warranty establish the exclusive means to resolve all disputes that may arise between you and Lennar (unless a statute expressly provides otherwise).

Rossmell, Esq. City of Boynton Beach CRA Board Attorney 336 COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY BOARD MEETING OF: June 9, 2026 OLD BUSINESS AGENDA ITEM 14.C SUBJECT: Consideration of the Revision to "Exhibit A" to the Interlocal Agreement between the Boynton Beach CRA and the City of Boynton Beach SUMMARY: On November 7, 2023, the CRA and City entered into an Interlocal Agreement (ILA) to provide CRA funding for design activities, materials and equipment, and installation costs associated with the physical improvements for specific projects as outlined in the CRA's Project Fund (see Attachment I - City Resolution R23-161). The ILA details the responsibilities of the City and CRA, the procedures for reimbursement funding to the City, and the reporting requirements by the City to ensure compliance with the Plan and Florida Statutes. As an overview, the City will be responsible for overseeing the projects, coordinating with the contractor(s) and other entities as necessary for the completion of the projects. Additionally, the City will also be responsible for the maintenance of the improvements as a result of the project, along with contracting with other entities as necessary to comply with applicable codes. Per Paragraph 4 of the ILA, Exhibit "A" may be updated at any time by the mutual consent of both parties and shall be updated at least annually in a form mutually consented by to by both parties. To date Exhibit "A" of the ILA has been updated as follows: October 15, 2024 - City Resolution R24-251 (see Attachment II) September 18, 2025 - City Resolution R25-258 (see Attachment III) November 18, 2025 - City Resolution R25-305 (see Attachment IV) April 7, 2026 - City Resolution R26-054 (see Attachment V) May 5, 2026 - City Resolution R26-073 (see Attachment VI) REVISION #1 On April 4, 2026, the CRA acquired 13 parcels totaling approximately 3.3 acres along W. Boynton Beach Boulevard. In addition, the CRA acquired the property located at 457 NW 1st Avenue (approximately 0.24 acres) on May 27, 2026. Collectively, the properties contain nine (9) existing structures that must be demolished in order to facilitate future redevelopment of the block. Preliminary demolition cost estimates have been obtained in the approximate amount of $330,000 (see Attachment VII). This estimate does not include contingency funding 337 •Attachment I - R23-161 - ILA for Funding Construction and Professional Services •Attachment II - R23-161 - ILA for Funding Construction and Professional Services •Attachment III - R25-258 - Master ILA Exhibit A Revision •Attachment IV - R25-305 - Master ILA Exhibit A Revision •Attachment V - R26-054 - Master ILA Exhibit A Revision •Attachment VI - R26-073 - Master ILA Exhibit A Revision •Attachment VII - Demolition proposal - BG GROUP •Attachment VIII - Proposed Master ILA Exhibit Revisions or any additional costs that may be necessary to prepare the site for future redevelopment activities. CRA staff is recommending a revision to the Master ILA Exhibit “A” to include funding for the demolition of the W. Boynton Beach Boulevard properties in the amount of $500,000. The proposed funding would be reallocated from existing project allocations within Exhibit "A", including $200,000 from the Centennial Park Improvement Design & Construction project and $300,000 from the Historic Woman’s Club of Boynton Beach project. REVISION #2 CRA staff is also requesting the addition of Neighborhood Signage to Exhibit "A" in the amount of $30,000. The proposed funding of $30,000 would be reallocated from the Centennial Park Improvement Design & Construction project within Exhibit "A" CRA staff based the reallocations on these two projects because the Centennial Park project is not anticipated to move forward during the current fiscal year, and electrical improvement estimates for the Historic Woman’s Club have come in significantly lower than originally projected. The revised Exhibit "A" has been provided for review (see Attachment VIII). FISCAL IMPACT: N/A CRA PLAN/PROJECT/PROGRAM: 2016 Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Plan CRA BOARD OPTIONS: 1.

The following are conditions precedent to the CRA’s distribution of CRA Grant Funding: 5.2.1 Completion of Construction; and 5.2.2 Developer has timely complied with its obligations to deliver Annual Performance Reports as set forth in Section 5.1 hereof ; provided that the CRA has not delivered a written notice to Developer stating that the Annual Performance Report is not in compliance with this Agreement within thirty-five (35) days after receipt of the Annual Performance Report; and 5.2.3 Developer is not delinquent in its payment of ad valorem property taxes for the Property or any portion thereof; and 5.2.4 Developer is not in material default beyond any applicable notice and cure period under any terms or provisions of this Agreement, subject to Section 8 below. 5.2.5 [Intentionally Deleted]. In order to receive the Second Grant Payment (as defined below) or any payment thereafter, Developer must have received a final certificate of occupancy allowing for occupancy of all residential units of the Project. Section 6. CRA Grant Funding. 6.1 Payment Schedule. 6.1.1 The CRA hereby agrees to pledge and assign to Developer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, CRA Grant Funding from the Trust Fund in the total amount of seven million dollars ($7,000,000.00) to be used to fund or reimburse costs of the Project, including without limitation, public infrastructure, public parking and other costs associated with the Project, pursuant to the following payment schedule (the following A, B and C are collectively referred to as the “Grant Payments”): 551 #1010558v8 4923-6845-8162, v. 1 A. $2,000,000.00 (“First Grant Payment”)shall be paid from the Trust Fund to Developer within forty (40) days following receipt of notice from Developer of Completion of Construction, as evidenced by a copy of the temporary certificate of occupancy or certificate of occupancy allowing for occupancy of all residential units of the Project; B. $3,000,000.00 (the “Second Grant Payment”)shall be paid from the Trust Fund to Developer one year after the First Grant Payment is paid; and C. $2,000,000.00 (“Third Grant Payment”) shall be paid from the Trust Fund to Developer one year after the Second Grant Payment is paid. Provided that the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.2 hereof have been satisfied , the CRA shall cause the Grant Payments to be paid to Developer in accordance with the above payment schedule. 6.2 Penalty for failure to comply with Affordability Requirements. If the Annual Performance Report discovers non-compliance with the Affordability Requirements, then for any unit subject to the Affordability Requirements that was rented out above the rates published by Palm Beach County for the applicable AMI, for a period of more than three (3) months after Developer had actual knowledge of the non-compliance, the penalty to be paid to the CRA (“Payment Penalty”), due thirty (30) days after the Annual Performance Report is delivered to the CRA, shall be equivalent to double the amount of the difference (the difference being the amount between the actual rental rate and the rate published by Palm Beach County for the applicable AMI) until such unit was brought into compliance with the Affordability Requirements. For example (using fake numbers), if the published Palm Beach County rate for a Tier 2 Unit is $500 per month, and such Tier 2 Unit is rented for $600 per month, then the fine paid to the CRA would be $200 per month for the period of non-compliance. For the avoidance of doubt, no penalty shall be paid to the CRA if Developer replaces a non-compliant unit with a compliant unit within three (3) months after Developer obtains actual knowledge of existence of the non - compliant unit. 6.3 Appropriations. The CRA warrants and represents that the CRA Grant Funding is not the subject of any prior pledge by the CRA. The CRA covenants and agrees to budget and appropriate in its annual budget, in each fiscal year, available and unencumbered funds in the Community Redevelopment Agency Trust Fund sufficient to satisfy and timely pay the Grant Payments. The CRA’s performance and obligation to pay under this Agreement is contingent upon annual appropriation by the CRA Board, consistent with Section 189.016, Florida Statutes. 6.4 Form of Payment. Payment of the Grant Payments shall be in the form of a CRA check made payable to the Developer. No payment made under this Agreement shall be conclusive evidence of the performance of this Agreement by Developer, either wholly or in part, and no payment shall be construed to relieve Developer of obligations under this Agreement or 552 #1010558v8 4923-6845-8162, v. 1 to be an acceptance of faulty or incomplete rendition of Developer’s obligations under this Agreement. Section 7. Notice and Contact. Any notice or other document required or allowed to be given pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered personally, or by recognized overnight courier or sent by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested. The use of electronic communication is not considered as providing proper notice pursuant to this Agreement.

The failure of Developer to comply with the provisions set forth in this Agreement shall constitute a default and breach of this Agreement. If Developer fails to cure the default within thirty (30) days of notice from the CRA, the CRA 553 #1010558v8 4923-6845-8162, v. 1 may withhold payment of the applicable Grant Payment to Developer until the default is cured (as evidenced by written notice from Developer to the CRA, provided that the CRA does not object to such cure within thirty five (35) business days after receipt of written notice from the Developer); provided, however, if such default takes longer than thirty (30) days to cure, such cure period shall be extended until the Developer cures such default provided that the Developer is using good faith efforts to effectuate such cure in a diligent manner and such cure can be completed within the same calendar year. Developer shall not be entitled to, and the CRA shall not be obligated to disburse, any Grant Payment while Developer is in default of this Agreement or has otherwise failed to meet its obligations under this Agreement, regardless of whether Developer is making good faith efforts to cure; provided however, once Developer cures its default the CRA shall confirm the sufficiency of such cure within forty-five (45) days’ notice of such cure and shall immediately thereafter disburse the applicable Grant Payment. A default under this Agreement shall not terminate this Agreement, but payments of the Grant Payments to Developer shall not re-commence until such default is cured. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Developer fails to cure the default within two (2) years of notice, this Agreement may be terminated at the option of the CRA. 8.2 CRA Default. In the event the CRA is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be in default under this Agreement, Developer’s remedy shall be limited to an amount equal to the total amount of Grant Funding, subject to the terms of this Agreement. Nothing in this Section 8.2 shall be deemed a waiver of the CRA’s sovereign immunity beyond the limits set forth in Section 768.28, Florida Statutes. Section 9. Termination. This Agreement shall automatically terminate: 1) on that date that is fifteen (15) years following Completion of Construction; or 2) if Developer fails to Commence Construction or Complete Construction of the Project as required herein (unless such time period is extended by the CRA or this Agreement is assigned to Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement).

Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to affect the rights, privileges, and sovereign immunities of the CRA as set forth in Section 768.28, Florida Statutes. This paragraph shall not be construed to require Developer to indemnify the CRA for its own negligence, or intentional acts of the CRA, its agents or employees. Each party assumes the risk of personal injury and property damage attributable to the acts or omissions of that party and its officers, employees and agents. 10.3. Assignment. This Agreement may only be assigned in its entirety.

The notice must be received within 90 days of Lender taking possession of or becoming the record owner of the Property. 10.4. Successors and Assigns. The CRA and Developer each binds itself and its partners, successors, executors, administrators and assigns to the other party and to the partners, successors, executors, administrators and assigns of such other party, in respect to all covenants of this Agreement.

Revised and Restated Financial Policies and Procedures Manual The Boynton Beach CRA's Financial Policies and Procedures Manual was last comprehensively updated in 2018. A review of the existing Manual identified four categories of issues requiring correction: Three entire policy areas — Records Retention, Financial Conflict of Interest and Ethics, and Fraud Prevention and Whistleblower Protection — were absent from the 2018 Manual, leaving the Agency without formal governance frameworks in these areas. Florida Statute compliance gaps accumulated since 2018, including amendments to F.S. 218.415 (pecuniary factors, FDIC deposit programs), F.S. 112.3187 (Whistleblower Act), and the Florida Department of State General Records Schedule GS1-SL. Reporting cadences were inconsistent throughout the prior Manual, mixing monthly, periodic, and unspecified frequencies across 26 separate locations, making compliance uneven and Board oversight harder to track. Two factual errors were identified: the fiscal quarter was defined as ending in August rather than September, and the investment policy required Board approval for every individual investment transaction — both now corrected. FISCAL IMPACT: No fiscal impact; however, this policy is tied to the new CRA investment policy which has significant investment interest impact. No new spending authority is created and no budget amendment is required. CRA BOARD OPTIONS: 1. Approve the Financial Policies and Procedures Manual as presented. 2. Do not approve the Financial Policies and Procedures Manual as presented. 3. Other options as determined by the Board. 567 •Proposed Update to the CRA Financial Policy 2026.docx ATTACHMENTS: Description 568 BOYNTON BEACH COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY FINANCIAL POLICIES AND PROCEDURES MANUAL Revised and Restated — [Current Year] TABLE OF CONTENTS Section Topic Page I Introduction and Purpose 3 II Internal Controls 4 III Budget Policy 8 IV Procurement Policy 15 V Cash and Investment Policy See Separately Adopted Policy VI Accounting Policies and Procedures 16 A.

incorporated in Section X with specific requirements BOTTOM LINE ASSESSMENT The 2018 Manual was a functional but basic document that covered the essential mechanics of CRA financial operations. The revised Manual transforms it into a comprehensive governance document that: 631 1. Closes significant policy gaps — three entirely new sections (Records Retention, Ethics, Fraud Prevention) address areas of risk that were completely unaddressed in 2018 2. Modernizes statutory compliance — incorporates amendments to F.S. 218.415 and other statutes enacted after 2018 3. Strengthens internal controls — adds formal risk assessment, segregation of duties matrix, compensating controls guidance, and enhanced oversight procedures throughout 4. Corrects errors — fixes the fiscal year quarter definition error and removes the operationally impractical board approval requirement for individual investment transactions 5. Establishes clear accountability — assigns specific responsibilities to named positions throughout rather than referring generically to "CRA staff" 6. Aligns reporting to quarterly cycle — changes 26 separate reporting references from monthly or unspecified cadence to quarterly, making the reporting structure consistent and sustainable 7. Adds practical tools — six new appendices provide actionable forms, checklists, and templates to support consistent policy implementation 632 COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY BOARD MEETING OF: June 9, 2026 NEW BUSINESS AGENDA ITEM 15.C SUBJECT: Consideration of the CRA Revised Cash / Investment Policy and the BBCRA Authorized Institution List SUMMARY: The revised policy is a comprehensive rewrite of the Agency's prior investment policy. It retains all existing investment objectives, authorized instruments, maturity limits, and safeguards. The investment policy is consistent with the same authority for the Finance Director/CFO as the City's financial policy. In addition, the compliant institutional list is provided for investment opportunities. Staff recommends formally adopting a new Cash and Investment Policy to replace the Agency's existing policy. The revised policy corrects legal deficiencies, closes operational gaps, adds mandatory investment guidelines for idle project funds, and aligns the CRA with Florida Statute 218.415 — the governing statute for local government investment. In addition, approve the institutional list for the City's Finance Director / CFO can facilitate investment opportunities. FISCAL IMPACT: The current fiscal impact expectation is the CRA will begin to receive +3.25% of daily cash balance which today is $38M. This should yield an additional ~$105K per month or ~$1.2M per year. Expected cash balance in a few months is expected to exceed +$60M which would begin to yield ~+$160K per month or almost $2.0M per year in additional interest to be used for CRA activities. CRA BOARD OPTIONS: 1. Approve the Cash and Investment Policy and the BBCRA Authorized Institution List as presented. 2. Do not approve Cash and Investment Policy and the BBCRA Authorized Institution List as presented. 3. Other options as determined by the Board. 633 •Proposed Update to the CRA Investment Policy.docx •BBCRA Authorized Institution List 2026.pdf ATTACHMENTS: Description 634 Here is the fully revised and corrected Boynton Beach CRA Cash and Investment Policy with the board approval conflict removed and proper delegation of authority established throughout: BOYNTON BEACH COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY CASH AND INVESTMENT POLICY Revised and Restated Pursuant to Florida Statute 218.415 SECTION 1: AUTHORITY AND PURPOSE This Cash and Investment Policy ("Policy") is adopted pursuant to Florida Statute 218.415 and Florida Statute 163.370(2)(f) to govern the investment of all public funds held or controlled by the Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency ("CRA" or "Agency"). This Policy represents the formal written investment policy required under F.S. 218.415(1)-(16), thereby authorizing the CRA to invest in the full range of instruments permitted under F.S. 218.415(16). By adopting this Policy, the CRA Board establishes the parameters, guidelines, and constraints within which the CRA Finance Director is delegated full operational authority to execute investment transaction s without requiring individual board approval for each transaction. The CRA Board's role is to: Adopt and periodically review this Policy Receive and review periodic investment reports Approve the annual authorized dealer and institution list Amend this Policy as conditions warrant The CRA Finance Director's role is to: Execute investment transactions within the guidelines of this Policy Manage the investment portfolio on a day-to-day basis Report investment activity to the CRA Board quarterly and annually Recommend Policy amendments to the CRA Board as needed 635 SECTION 2: SCOPE This Policy applies to all financial assets held or controlled by the CRA in excess of those required to meet current expenses, including but not limited to: Operating funds Project funds Reserve funds Redevelopment trust fund balances awaiting deployment Bond reserve funds (to the extent not otherwise governed by existing bond indentures) Any other idle funds held by the CRA pending use for authorized purposes Exclusions: This Policy does not apply to: Pension funds governed by Chapters 175 and 185, Florida Statutes Funds related to the issuance of debt where existing bond indentures or other policies govern such funds Any funds subject to a preexisting contract or agreement in effect prior to October 1, 2000, which shall continue to be governed by such contract per F.S. 218.415(20) SECTION 3: DEFINITIONS Authorized Investment means any investment instrument specifically listed in Section 9 of this Policy. Investments not listed are expressly prohibited. Authorized Dealer/Institution List means the board-approved list of financial institutions and broker/dealers with whom the CRA Finance Director is authorized to transact investment business. Benchmark means the State Board of Administration's Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund (SBA Pool), used to evaluate portfolio performance. Core Funds means bond reserves, construction funds, project funds, and other non - operating funds not required for current quarter expenses. Current Expenses means funds budgeted for current quarter operational needs. Current Quarter means October–December, January–March, April–June, and July– September. 636 Derivative means a financial instrument the value of which depends on, or is derived from, the value of one or more underlying assets or index of asset values. Derivatives are prohibited under this Policy. Excess Available Funds means all funds other than those required for current quarter expenses that are available for investment, including idle project funds awaiting deployment. Idle Project Funds means funds appropriated for specific redevelopment projects or activities that have not yet been expended and are available for investment pending deployment. Liquid Investment Account means an account in which funds can be moved immediately to meet operational or project needs without penalty or market risk. Pecuniary Factor means a factor that the CRA Board prudently determines is expected to have a material effect on the risk or returns of an investment based on appropriate investment horizons. This term does not include the furtherance of any social, political, or ideological interests, consistent with F.S. 218.415(24). Primary Liquidity means funds budgeted for current quarter needs retained in an operating account and a liquid investment account. Qualified Public Depository has the meaning set forth in F.S. 280.02. SECTION 4: INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES All investment activity shall be conducted in accordance with the following objectives, listed in strict order of priority: A. Safety of Capital — Highest Priority The primary objective is the preservation of principal. The CRA shall seek to minimize credit risk and interest rate risk by: Limiting investments to the safest types of authorized securities Pre-qualifying all financial institutions, broker/dealers, and advisors Diversifying the portfolio to minimize potential losses Structuring maturities to match anticipated cash flow needs, including known project deployment timelines B. Liquidity — Second Priority 637 The portfolio shall be structured to ensure sufficient liquidity to meet all obligations as they come due, including project fund drawdowns. A cash flow analysis shall be completed quarterly to confirm the portfolio is properly positioned. Curren t budgeted needs shall be maintained in an operating account and a liquid investment account at all times. C. Investment Income (Yield) — Third Priority Only after safety and liquidity objectives are satisfied shall the CRA seek to optimize investment returns. The portfolio shall be diversified to attain a market rate of return throughout budgetary and economic cycles. Investments shall be limited to relatively low-risk securities in anticipation of earning a fair return relative to the risk assumed. Investment income earned on idle project funds shall be allocated back to the fund that generated it. SECTION 5: INVESTMENT DECISION STANDARDS A. Delegation of Investment Authority The CRA Board hereby delegates to the CRA Finance Director full operational authority to execute investment transactions on behalf of the CRA within the guidelines established by this Policy. This delegation means: The Finance Director does not need to seek board approval for individual investment transactions The Finance Director may act promptly to take advantage of favorable market conditions The Finance Director may respond immediately to liquidity needs without convening a board meeting All transactions must comply strictly with this Policy and F.S. 218.415 In the absence or unavailability of the Finance Director, the CRA Executive Director is authorized to execute investment transactions within these same parameters. No other CRA employee or officer is authorized to execute investment transactions without express written delegation from the Finance Director, with written notification to the CRA Board. B. Pecuniary Factors Only Consistent with F.S. 218.415(24), all investment decisions shall be made solely on the basis of pecuniary factors — specifically, factors expected to have a material effect on the risk or return of an investment. The CRA may not subordinate the financial interests 638 of the public to social, political, ideological, or other nonpecuniary objectives, nor sacrifice investment return or accept additional risk to promote any nonpecuniary interest. C. Prudent Person Standard The Prudent Person Rule shall govern all investment activities: "Investments shall be made with judgment and care, under circumstances then prevailing, which persons of prudence, discretion, and intelligence exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for speculation, but for investment, considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income to be derived from the investment." CRA staff acting in accordance with this written Policy and exercising due diligence shall be relieved of personal responsibility for an individual security's credit risk or market price changes, provided that: Deviations from expectations are reported to the CRA Board in a timely manner All transactions are carried out in accordance with the terms of this Policy D. Ethical Standards All employees involved in the investment process shall: Refrain from personal business activity that could conflict with proper execution of the investment program Avoid any activity that could impair their ability to make impartial investment decisions Comply with the Florida Code of Ethics, Chapter 112, Florida Statutes Disclose any potential conflicts of interest to the CRA Board immediately upon discovery SECTION 6: PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT The State Board of Administration's (SBA) Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund Pool shall serve as the primary benchmark for evaluating investment portfolio performance. This benchmark allows the CRA to compare its portfolio yields against other investors operating in the same markets. 639 Performance shall be reviewed quarterly as part of the investment reporting process described in Section 16. The Finance Director shall comment on portfolio performance relative to the benchmark in each quarterly report and explain any material variances. SECTION 7: MATURITY AND LIQUIDITY REQUIREMENTS The portfolio shall be structured to match investment maturities with known cash needs and anticipated cash flow requirements. The Finance Director shall maintain a rolling 12-month cash flow projection, updated quarterly, identifying: Anticipated project fund drawdown dates Scheduled debt service payments Known operating expenditure requirements Other foreseeable liquidity needs Specific maturity guidelines are as follows: Fund Type Maximum Maturity Primary Liquidity (current quarter operating needs) No maturity restriction; held in liquid accounts Idle Project Funds with uncertain timelines SBA Pool or money market funds; same-day liquidity Idle Project Funds with defined timelines Matched to anticipated deployment date; not to exceed 5 years Core Operating and Reserve Funds Five (5) years from date of purchase Bond Reserves and Debt-Related Funds Per applicable bond indenture; not to exceed 5 years The Finance Director shall document the investment rationale for each core fund or project fund investment, noting the anticipated deployment date and the basis for the selected maturity. This documentation shall be maintained in the investment records and available for audit review. SECTION 8: PORTFOLIO COMPOSITION AND DIVERSIFICATION A. Portfolio Composition 640 The portfolio shall maintain a balance of short-term and medium-term maturities to meet liquidity needs while optimizing returns within safety constraints. Specific composition limits by instrument type are set forth in Section 9. B. Diversification To control the risk of loss resulting from overconcentration, the portfolio shall be diversified across: Security types and instruments Issuers Maturities Financial institutions and dealers No single issuer — except the U.S. Treasury and the SBA Pool — shall represent more than the concentration limits specified in Section 9. Diversification strategies shall be reviewed and revised by the Finance Director as market conditions warrant, with material changes noted in the next quarterly report to the CRA Board.

Adopted by the Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency Board Date: ___________________________ Resolution No.: ___________________ Finance Director: ___________________________ Executive Director: ___________________________ SUMMARY OF KEY CHANGES FROM PRIOR POLICY ACCURATE SUMMARY OF KEY CHANGES FROM ORIGINAL BOYNTON BEACH CRA INVESTMENT POLICY 1. Board Approval for Transactions Detail Original Policy States "Authorized CRA Finance Director and Investment Advisors shall only purchase securities from financial institutions after CRA Board approval" Revised Policy Board approval removed for individual transactions. Finance Director has full operational authority within Policy guidelines. Board approval retained only for annual dealer list and Policy amendments Reason for Change Conflicts with F.S. 218.415 which delegates day-to-day investment authority to staff; operationally impractical 2. Delegation of Authority / Alternate Officer Detail Original Policy No designation of an alternate officer if the Finance Director is unavailable 655 Detail Revised Policy CRA Executive Director explicitly designated as authorized alternate Reason for Change Operational gap — without a designated alternate, investment activity could be paralyzed if the Finance Director is absent 3. Definition of Current Quarter Detail Original Policy Defines Current Quarter as "October-December, January-March, April-June, and July-August" — this is only a 2-month quarter Revised Policy Corrected to "July-September" making it a full four-quarter fiscal year Reason for Change Apparent typographical error in the original policy that left a gap in the fiscal year coverage 4. Idle Project Funds Detail Original Policy No specific guidance on investing funds appropriated for projects but not yet expended Revised Policy Dedicated Section 19 added with specific guidelines including default investment vehicle, extended maturity criteria, Project Fund Investment Schedule, and income allocation requirements Reason for Change Significant gap given that CRA project funds can sit idle for extended periods awaiting land acquisition, permitting, and construction; needed clear investment guidance 5. Pecuniary Factors Requirement 656 Detail Original Policy Not addressed Revised Policy Expressly required — all investment decisions must be based solely on pecuniary factors; social, political, and ideological considerations expressly prohibited Reason for Change Required by F.S. 218.415(24), added by amendment in 2023 -2025; original policy predates this requirement 6. Israeli Government Securities Detail Original Policy Not included as an authorized investment Revised Policy Added at maximum 10% of excess available funds Reason for Change Authorized under F.S. 218.415(16)(f); omission from original policy was an oversight 7. FDIC-Insured Deposit Programs Detail Original Policy Not included Revised Policy Added as an authorized investment vehicle Reason for Change Authorized under F.S. 218.415(23); particularly useful for idle project funds where full FDIC insurance on larger balances is desirable 8. Authorized Dealer List Management 657 Detail Original Policy Requires board approval each time the Finance Director purchases securities from any institution Revised Policy Board formally approves the full dealer list annually; Finance Director may transact freely with listed institutions; board approval only required for mid-year additions to the list Reason for Change Original requirement was operationally unworkable and inconsistent with F.S. 218.415 9. Quarterly Reporting Content Detail Original Policy Quarterly report lists securities held, percentage by type, coupon/earning rate, average life/duration, par value, and market value Revised Policy All original elements retained, plus: benchmark comparison commentary, idle project fund status and deployment dates, compliance confirmation, and documentation of competitive bid exceptions Reason for Change Enhanced oversight and transparency; better alignment with F.S. 218.415(15) reporting requirements 10. Annual Report Requirements Detail Original Policy Annual report includes complete list of invested funds, security type, amount invested, maturity date, earned income, book value, market value, and yield Revised Policy All original elements retained, plus: investment income allocation by fund, continuing education hours completed, recommended Policy changes, and formal F.S. 218.415 compliance confirmation 658 Detail Reason for Change Strengthens accountability and audit trail 11. Competitive Bidding Documentation Detail Original Policy States minimum three bids required; exceptions listed but no documentation requirement for exceptions Revised Policy All original bid requirements retained; adds explicit requirement to document the market comparison rationale whenever competitive bidding is not used Reason for Change Strengthens internal controls and audit trail for non-bid transactions 12. Internal Controls — Project Fund Tracking Detail Original Policy Internal controls address safekeeping, repurchase agreements, separation of duties, wire transfers, banking contracts, and collateral agreements Revised Policy All original elements retained, plus explicit requirement for project fund investment tracking and cash flow analysis procedures Reason for Change Fills gap identified in project fund investment guidance 13. Continuing Education Documentation Detail Original Policy States Finance Director must complete 8 hours annually but no documentation or reporting requirement specified 659 Detail Revised Policy 8-hour requirement retained; adds requirement to maintain documentation on file, include in annual report to the board, and make available to auditors Reason for Change F.S. 218.415(14) requires the education; documentation ensures verifiable compliance 14. Policy Review Timing Detail Original Policy No specific timeline stated for annual policy review Revised Policy Finance Director must bring Policy to the board for review no later than 90 days after the start of each fiscal year Reason for Change Ensures the annual review requirement is actionable and not indefinitely deferred 15. Prohibited Activities Detail Original Policy Derivatives and reverse repurchase agreements specifically prohibited in a standalone section Revised Policy Original prohibitions retained and expanded into a comprehensive prohibited activities summary covering unauthorized transactions, concentration limit violations, maturity limit violations, and nonpecuniary investment decisions Reason for Change Clearer and more comprehensive statement of prohibited activities strengthens compliance and audit position What Was NOT Changed 660 The following elements of the original policy were retained without substantive change: The three investment objectives and their priority order (Safety, Liquidity, Yield) The Prudent Person Rule standard The SBA Pool as the performance benchmark The Code of Ethics reference (Chapter 112) All ten original authorized investment categories and their concentration limits All maturity limits for each investment category The five-year maximum maturity for core funds Qualified public depository requirements under Chapter 280 Third-party custodial requirements Master Repurchase Agreement requirements Minimum three competitive bids requirement The 8-hour continuing education requirement Cash management pooling authority Public availability of investment reports The prohibition on derivatives and reverse repurchase agreements 661 BOYNTON BEACH COMMUNITY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY AUTHORIZED DEALER AND INSTITUTION LIST Adopted Pursuant to the CRA Cash and Investment Policy and Florida Statute 218.415 Section 1 — Authority and Purpose This Authorized Dealer and Institution List ("List") is adopted by the Board of Commissioners of the Boynton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency pursuant to Section 10 of the CRA Cash and Investment Policy and Florida Statute 218.415.
