05.12.2026 - Housing Committee Meeting

The Miami-Dade Board of County Commissioners held a Housing Committee meeting on May 12, 2026, primarily focusing on recognizing National Foster Care Awareness Month and honoring local foster care organizations. The meeting included presentations and proclamations to support foster parents and community agencies. A significant portion of the meeting was dedicated to discussing and approving the Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Annual Public Housing Agency Plan. Commissioners reviewed admission preferences for vulnerable groups such as the homeless, veterans, elderly, and disabled, and discussed the plan's provisions for potential demolition of uninhabitable housing units with HUD approval. The plan also addressed compliance, monitoring, and audit processes to ensure fair housing practices. The resolution to approve the housing plan passed with a 4-2-1 vote. No new contracts or procurement awards were reported, but the discussion included policy elements that could impact future housing development and management activities.
