SECOND AMENDMENT TO THE LICENSE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF DANIA BEACH, FLORIDA AND RITA CROCKETT BEACH SPORTS ACADEMY
This Second Amendment (“Second Amendment”) amends and modifies that certain License Agreement dated June 12, 2025, between the City of Dania Beach, Florida (the “City”), and RITA CROCKETT BEACH SPORTS ACADEMY, a Florida not-for-profit corporation (“RCBSA”), as
previously amended by the First Amendment (collectively, the “Agreement”).
The parties agree as follows:
1. Addition of New Section – City Responsibility for Damage During Public Use
Hours
A new Section 7.17 is hereby added to Article 7 of the Agreement to read as follows:
“Section 7.17. Damage Caused by Public During Public Use Hours.
The City shall assume financial responsibility for the repair or replacement of RCBSA-owned
equipment located within the Licensed Area when such equipment is damaged by members of the general public during the hours in which the Licensed Area is made available for public “free play” in accordance with Section 1.07 of this Agreement.
This responsibility applies only to damage caused by individuals who are not participating in
RCBSA programs, activities, tournaments, lessons, rentals, or other Licensee-scheduled uses, and
only during the times the City has designated the Licensed Area as open for public use.
RCBSA shall notify the City in writing within three (3) business days of discovering such damage, including reasonable documentation such as photographs and a brief incident report. The City shall review the documentation and reimburse RCBSA for verified repair or replacement costs within
thirty (30) days of receiving acceptable proof.
Nothing in this Section alters or limits (i) RCBSA’s responsibility for damage occurring during Licensee’s exclusive use or during RCBSA-scheduled activities, or (ii) the City’s governmental immunities under Section 768.28, Florida Statutes.”
2. Addition of New Section – Reimbursement of Eligible Operating Costs
A new Section 7.18 is hereby added to Article 7 of the Agreement to read as follows:
2
“Section 7.18. Reimbursement of Eligible Operating Costs.
In addition to reimbursements authorized elsewhere in the Agreement, the City shall reimburse RCBSA for eligible operating costs associated with the operation, oversight, and delivery of services within the Licensed Area, subject to the following conditions:
1. Eligible Costs. Eligible operating costs include personnel expenses, routine facility-related expenditures, equipment upkeep not covered by Section 7.17, program support, and other
similar operational expenses reasonably incurred by RCBSA.
2. Documentation. RCBSA shall submit reasonable documentation for all operating costs sought to be reimbursed, including receipts, invoices, payroll reports, statements, or comparable records. 3. City Review. All reimbursement requests shall be subject to review and approval by the
City Manager or designee to verify eligibility, completeness, and compliance with this
Agreement. 4. Funding Cap. Total reimbursement under this Section 7.18, together with any other reimbursements authorized under the Agreement, shall not exceed the Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollar ($250,000) cap established under the Agreement..
5. No Waiver of Immunity. Nothing in this Section shall be construed as a waiver of the
City’s sovereign immunity or limitations on liability as set forth in Section 768.28, Florida Statutes.”
3. No Other Modifications; Continuation of Agreement
Except as expressly amended herein, all terms, conditions, obligations, and provisions of the Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment, shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect.
4. Effective Date
