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

Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners is delegating authority to the County Mayor or designee to negotiate and execute an amendment to an Exchange Agreement with UniCapital Medley QOZB LLC for the South Dade Pet Adoption and Protection Center. The amendment will modify minimum design requirements and increase the County's contribution. An additional $3,000,000 is allocated for design enhancements, bringing the total County contribution to $6,200,000. An additional $1,000,000 is approved for a design and construction contingency. The total project cost is estimated to increase from $21,000,000 to approximately $25,000,000. The enhancements are recommended by the design consultant, Animal Arts, to improve facility performance, reduce disease spread, and support the County's no-kill policy. The project is located in Commission District 8. The agreement was initially approved on June 26, 2025, via Resolution No. R-581-25 (corrected from R-518-25).
