AMENDING DEED RE BUILDING BETTER COMMUNITIES

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

The Miami-Dade Board of County Commissioners adopted Resolution R-675-26 (File Number 260583) on July 21, 2026, authorizing amended and restated County deeds to Building Better Communities of South Florida, Inc. for three properties (Folio Nos. 10-7813-050-0380, 30-5032-000-0370, and 30-5032-000-0380) in County Commission District 9. The resolution permits the transfer of these properties to Javon Gardens LLC, a joint venture between Building Better Communities and Pyramid Construction, and grants a two-year extension to July 29, 2028, to obtain final certificates of occupancy for multi-family rental units to be rented to very low-, low-, or moderate-income households. The properties were originally conveyed for single-family homes under the Infill Housing Program, but use was changed to multi-family rental units per Resolution R-124-24. The extension previously granted expires on July 29, 2026. The applicant cited uncontrollable delays, including completion of surveys, and the inability of Building Better Communities to secure financing on its own as justification. The resolution also authorizes the County Mayor or designee to enforce the County's reversionary interest or accept a deed back to the County if deed restrictions are not met, and requires signage on the properties identifying the County's name and the district commissioner. No public comment or stakeholder sentiment is stated in the document.
