Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners adopted Ordinance No. 260553, approving and ratifying Fiscal Year 2024-25 end-of-year supplemental budget adjustments and amendments for various county departments and funds. This ordinance amends previous budget ordinances, ratifies fees and charges, appropriates grant funds, and approves budgetary reallocations. Key financial adjustments include over $1.242 billion in total operating and capital supplements, with significant allocations for grants, capital projects, and fund balances. Notably, $112.868 million is allocated to the Housing and Community Development Department for public housing improvements and Section 8 housing subsidies. The ordinance also addresses carryover funds, with $6.056 million from the Countywide General Fund and $4.758 million from the Unincorporated Municipal Service Area (UMSA) General Fund. A portion of the Countywide General Fund carryover ($3.028 million) is designated for the Affordable Housing Trust Fund, while the remainder of both carryovers will be addressed in future budget amendments. Public comment during committee meetings focused on the allocation of discretionary carryover funds, with Commissioner Cohen Higgins expressing interest in alternatives to reserves, and Vice Chairwoman Milian Orbis suggesting property tax relief for seniors. The final decision to adopt the ordinance was made on June 2, 2026.
