HEAD START PROGRAM - DP

Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners adopted a resolution retroactively approving the application for and acceptance of $375,939,525.00 in grant funds from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services for the continuation of the Head Start Program. The grant period is from August 1, 2026, to July 31, 2031. The resolution authorizes the expenditure of these funds and a non-competitive designated purchase to award contracts D-10669A through D-10669Q to seventeen Head Start delegate agencies for program services. The County Mayor or designee is authorized to award these contracts, apply for future funds, negotiate and execute necessary agreements, solicit new delegate agencies if needed, and negotiate agreements to support student internships. The Safety and Health Committee discussed an amendment to authorize the negotiation of a lease agreement for modular units with the School Board of Miami-Dade County. Public comment included a discussion on why the County continues to administer the Head Start program instead of transferring it to the School District, with the County citing over 60 years of operational expertise and the value of integrated social services.

HOLE IN THE DOUGHNUT CONVEYANCE

Miami-Dade County Commissioners approved the conveyance of approximately 32 acres of vacant, county-owned land adjacent to the Homestead Air Reserve Base to the United States of America, acting through the Department of the Air Force. The land, identified by portions of Folio Nos. 30-7901-000-0090, 30-7901-000-0210, and 30-7901-000-0220, will be used for military purposes to support national defense interests. The conveyance is at no cost, and provisions regarding appraisals were waived. An amendment to the resolution specified that approximately 2 acres, designated Parcel 2, would be retained by the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue Department until no later than June 2027, after which it would also be conveyed to the Air Force. The remaining balance, Parcel 1, was conveyed immediately. A request to convey five acres to the Sheriff's Office was not incorporated as no formal request was submitted and the land was not part of the subject conveyance. The resolution passed with an 11-0 vote. Public comment is not explicitly detailed, but discussions involved ensuring the Air Force had full access to the runway and addressing the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue Department's continued need for a portion of the property.

The land was originally transferred to the County from the U.S. Government at no cost and will be returned under similar terms. Water main extensions will be required for water connectivity, and the Air Force must obtain easements. An environmental baseline study by HARB is pending.
