ARTHUR MAYS VILLAS, NARANJA, MODELLO II, AND PINE ISLAND PHD

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-06-02 · report

This legislative item, File Number 260775, concerns a status report on several public housing developments. The original intent was to negotiate lease and development agreements with SG South Miami-Dade Ventures, LLC for Arthur Mays Villas, Naranja, Modello II, and Pine Island, and with PCSH Little River Development, LLC for Kline Nunn, Little River Plaza, and Little River Terrace, without a competitive process. However, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) denied the county's request to proceed without a competitive process on March 13, 2026. Consequently, the recommendation is to initiate a competitive process for these developments. A $15,000,000.00 grant from the State of Florida, Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) is associated with the Little River Public Housing Resiliency Upgrades Project, which includes Kline Nunn, Little River Plaza, and Little River Terrace, aiming to redevelop 232 public housing units and implement resiliency improvements. FDEP advised that the county may delegate competitive procurement of subcontractors to PCSH. The item was deferred by the Board of County Commissioners.
