Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners adopted Ordinance File Number 260553, approving and ratifying Fiscal Year 2024-25 end-of-year supplemental budget adjustments and amendments. This ordinance adjusts budgets for various county departments and funds, amends previous ordinances, ratifies implementing orders and board actions setting fees, appropriates grant and donation funds, and approves certain budgetary reallocations. The total value of operating and capital supplements is $1.242 billion. Key adjustments include $112.868 million for the Housing and Community Development Department for public housing improvements and Section 8 housing subsidies, and $4.758 million in Unincorporated Municipal Service Area (UMSA) General Fund carryover recommended for reserves. Public comment was minimal; the public hearing was closed with no one appearing to speak. During committee review, Commissioner Cohen Higgins inquired about the allocation of carryover funds, specifically the portion not dedicated to affordable housing, and the administration's latitude in placing funds into reserves. Vice Chairwoman Milian Orbis suggested using carryover funds for property tax relief for seniors, a suggestion supported by Chairwoman Lopez. The ordinance was adopted on first reading on April 21, 2026, and finally adopted by the Board of County Commissioners on June 2, 2026.
