5 YEAR PHA PLAN

Housing Committee · 2026-09-09 · resolution

The document is a legislative item for a Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners resolution approving the Fiscal Year 2025-2029 Five-Year Public Housing Agency Plan (PHA Plan) for the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). The Plan is a countywide administrative and policy document, not a specific construction project. It includes substantial modifications: HCD received multiple Choice Neighborhood Initiative (CNI) awards; the County is creating a County-controlled 501(c)(3) entity, the Miami-Dade Attainable Housing Corporation, Inc., to participate in redevelopment of public housing and other County-owned housing; and HCD intends to utilize County-owned Public Housing land for developing affordable workforce housing and homeownership opportunities. The Plan applies only to Public Housing, Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher (HCV), and other federally subsidized programs administered by the County through HCD, and does not relate to programs administered by other housing authorities in the cities of Hialeah, Miami Beach, and Homestead. The resolution authorizes the County Mayor or designee to submit the Plan to HUD for final approval no later than December 1, 2026, and to make necessary revisions subject to the Plan's 'Significant Amendment and Substantial Deviation' definition. The item was introduced on 8/19/2026, is in committee, and is scheduled for the Housing Committee agenda on 10/6/2026 as item 8K. The Plan was available for public review and comments during a 45-day comment period from May 20, 2026, through July 3, 2026. Two meetings with the Resident Advisory Board (RAB) were held: an in-person meeting on June 1, 2026, and a virtual meeting via Zoom on June 15, 2026. The staff recommendation is to approve the Plan. The sponsor is Commissioner Marleine Bastien. The file number is 261477. The document does not state a specific street address, parcel, acreage, number of units, or square footage for any project. The document does not state any public comment sentiment from the RAB meetings or the 45-day comment period.
