DEMOLITION OF ARTHUR MAYS VILLAS PUBLIC HOUSING DEVELOPMENT

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-07-21 · resolution

Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners is authorizing the submission of a demolition application to HUD for a portion of the Arthur Mays Villas Public Housing Development. This portion consists of 147 units located within a single site. The demolition is subject to HUD approval. A demolition contract, with an estimated cost up to $2,000,000.00, will be competitively selected and awarded through the Miscellaneous Construction Contracts (MCC) 7360 Plan. The project is located in District 9. The decision to demolish follows a physical needs assessment indicating rehabilitation costs exceed HUD thresholds and that some buildings have unsafe structure violation notices. The County has engaged in multiple outreach meetings with residents since 2018 and will coordinate relocation for the 13 currently occupied units upon HUD approval. Community stakeholders will be engaged through the Goulds Forward Choice Neighborhoods Initiative.
