AMENDMENT TO LAND EXCHANGE AGREEMENT

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

Resolution approving the First Amendment to a Land Exchange Agreement between Miami-Dade County and the District Board of Trustees of Miami-Dade College. The County conveys 48,456 square feet of County-owned land (County Parcel, portion of Folio No. 01-3135-061-0010, located at 1851 NW 9th Avenue, Miami) to the College in exchange for the College conveying 48,102 square feet of land (College Parcel, portion of Folio No. 01-3135-106-0010, located at 1000 Northwest 20th Street, Miami) to the County for use by the Public Health Trust. The amendment removes the closing condition requiring the Public Health Trust to complete certain environmental remediation (obtain a No Further Action Letter from DERM), modifies the environmental remediation provision, modifies the closing date definition, defines the effective date of the First Amendment, and provides for post-closing cooperation on information exchange. Adopted on 7/21/2026. Original item under File No. 261262. Public comment: Commissioner Hardemon noted a scrivener's error, corrected to replace the street address for the College Parcel with 1000 Northwest 20th Street, Miami. Chairman Gonzalez referenced a prior discussion regarding five acres at Homestead Air Force Base and requested a meeting with administration; Mr. Palmer advised no update, County still held the property, seeking funds to develop the fire side, and aware MDSO sought approximately five acres for a K-9 Training Center.
