Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners amended Ordinance No. 260671 on June 16, 2026, relating to the Infill Housing Initiative Program. The amendment, which will be included in the Miami-Dade County Code, limits the number of extensions and the total time that may be granted to developers for property development under the program. Specifically, no more than two one-year extensions will be granted per property, with a possibility of one additional extension in extraordinary circumstances (declared emergencies, natural disasters) upon a two-thirds vote. The amendment aims to increase accountability, ensure program efficiency, and expedite the delivery of affordable housing. The Intergovernmental and Economic Impact Committee forwarded the ordinance with a favorable recommendation on May 13, 2026, after a public hearing where no one appeared to speak. The ordinance was adopted on first reading by the Board of County Commissioners on April 21, 2026.
