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

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

This legislative item concerns the status of two sets of public housing developments. For Arthur Mays Villas, Naranja, Modello II, and Pine Island Public Housing Developments, and Kline Nunn, Little River Plaza, and Little River Terrace Public Housing Developments, the County Mayor's office was directed to negotiate lease and development agreements with SG South Miami-Dade Ventures, LLC (SG) and PCSH Little River Development, LLC (PCSH) respectively. However, the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) denied the County's request to award development rights without a competitive process on March 13, 2026. Consequently, the County is unable to proceed with direct negotiations and must initiate a competitive process. The Little River developments (Kline Nunn, Little River Plaza, Little River Terrace) are also part of a $15,000,000.00 grant from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection for resiliency upgrades, addressing flooding and sea level rise vulnerability. The FDEP advised that subcontracted work for these resiliency upgrades would require competitive procurement, which can be delegated to PCSH.
