RESOLUTION APPROVING THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO JOINT DEVELOPMEN

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-06-16 · resolution

Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners approved the first amendment to a joint development agreement for the Palmetto Station Transit-Oriented Development Project. The amendment restructures the project to allow developers to enter directly into ground leases with the County, improving financeability while preserving the Foundation's role in youth housing and community programming. The project will include a minimum of 929 workforce and community housing units, with an optional future phase for an additional 212 units. It will also feature workforce housing, military housing, transit operator housing, youth housing, commercial space, office space, station improvements, structured parking facilities (preserving 550 transit-user spaces), and transit-supportive infrastructure. The parking facilities will be constructed, owned, and operated by the Developer at no cost to the County. The Board approved the amendment, a revised Master Plan and Project Schedule, and the Phase I Ground Lease Agreement. The County Mayor or designee is authorized to execute these agreements and all necessary ancillary documents.
