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

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

This legislative item, File Number 260775, concerns a status report on the redevelopment of multiple public housing developments. The original directive was to negotiate lease and development agreements with SG South Miami-Dade Ventures, LLC for Arthur Mays Villas, Naranja, Modello II, and Pine Island, and with PCSH Little River Development, LLC for Kline Nunn, Little River Plaza, and Little River Terrace, without a competitive process. However, the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) denied the County's request to proceed without a competitive process on March 13, 2026. Consequently, the County is unable to move forward with the direct award of development rights as initially planned. The recommended action is to initiate a competitive process to resolve the HUD denial and satisfy federal procurement requirements. The Kline Nunn, Little River Plaza, and Little River Terrace developments are 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 the County may delegate competitive procurement of subcontractors to PCSH.
