RESOLUTION DECLAIRING CERTAIN COUNTY-OWNED PROPERTIES AS

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-05-19 · resolution

Miami-Dade County declared two county-owned properties as surplus and approved their conveyance to Voices on the Ground, LLC and Forge Capital Group, LLC for $10.00 each. The purpose is to develop affordable housing for very low-, low-, or moderate-income households. The developers must complete construction and sales within two years of the deed recording. The county waived certain resolutions regarding sewer access, notice periods, and agreement finalization. Public comment included support for the item, with a question about project monitoring. Concerns were raised about infill lot limitations for housing types (favoring duplexes/triplexes and ADUs) and the lack of existing water and sewer infrastructure, which necessitates costly septic systems. The county noted that one parcel could support multifamily development, while the other is a small remnant lot suitable only for a single-family home, and the ADU ordinance threshold is not met. The deed will include a recommendation to connect to the county's water and sewer system when available.
