DEMOLITION OF ARTHUR MAYS VILLAS PUBLIC HOUSING DEVELOPMENT

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

Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners is authorizing the submission of a demolition application to HUD for a portion of the Arthur Mays Villas Public Housing Development. This portion consists of 147 units located within a single site bounded by SW 214th Street (North), SW 113th Avenue (East), SW 216th Street (South), and SW 114th Court (West). The demolition is subject to HUD approval. The County Mayor or designee is authorized to competitively select and award a demolition contract through the MCC 7360 Plan for up to $2,000,000.00. The decision to demolish is based on a physical needs assessment indicating rehabilitation costs exceed HUD thresholds for physical obsolescence, and unsafe structure violation notices. The County has engaged in multiple meetings with Arthur Mays residents since 2018 and will coordinate relocation for the 13 currently occupied units upon HUD approval. Public comment is not explicitly stated in this document, but resident meetings have been held.
