The existing sites are not public housing sites, but instead are subject to a Housing Assistance Payment (HAP) contract with the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The existing sites will be redeveloped by transferring the existing HAP contract to the new development and will incorporate additional new deeply affordable units subsidized by the HUD Faircloth-to-RAD program.

Background On April 12, 2023, the County advertised Request for Proposal (RFP) � No. 2023-01-GPWG � Gibson Plaza/West Grove Redevelopment seeking proposals from perspective developers who have the capability, expertise, capacity, and resources to obtain financing to successfully redevelop Gibson Plaza and West Grove housing sites with affordable, workforce housing, and market rate units. The Competitive Selection Committee (Committee) recommended that the County negotiated with the two highest ranking proposers, i.e., RUDG, LLC (RUDG) for Group 1 (Gibson Plaza), and Integral Florida, LLC (Integral) for Group 2 (West Grove). On September 17, 2024, the Board of County Commissioners (�Board�) adopted Resolution No. R-829-24, authorizing the County Mayor or the County Mayor�s designee to initiate negotiations for RFP � No. 2023-01-GPWG � Gibson Plaza/West Grove Redevelopment with the highest ranked proposers, i.e., RUDG (Group 1), and Integral (Group 2) for the redevelopment of the Gibson Plaza and West Grove housing developments, respectively. Pursuant to that resolution, the County administration disclosed to the Board that it would return for further approvals of the permanent ground lease and master development agreement. This item seeks authorization to execute the MDA. Pursuant to the MDA, RUDG has agreed to construct a development that will consist of a total of 345 mixed-income units, which will replace the existing 65 units which are currently subject to a Section 8 HAP contract by transferring the HAP contract to the new development. The new development will also incorporate 46 additional new deeply affordable units subsidized by the HUD Faircloth-to-RAD program. RUDG has further agreed to provide certain community benefits which include a commitment by RUDG to provide a minimum of 20 percent of new hires from Section 3 eligible residents as local construction and permanent hiring. In addition, the developer has committed to award a minimum of 25 percent of the construction subcontracts to certified Section 3, CBE, DBE, S/M/WBE, and Labor Surplus Area firms in the event RUDG fails to comply with the community benefits requirements, then RUDG will be required to pay liquidated damages to the County. In order to increase the number of affordable housing units on-site, the development will include 46 Faircloth-to-RAD units. Faircloth-to-RAD (now known as Restore-Rebuild) brings together two HUD processes in one integrated system, allowing public housing authorities to submit a public housing proposal to create new units and simultaneously submit documents to allow the conversion of the units to RAD upon construction completion. This process brings new subsidy to the project that does not currently exist. In accordance with the Board�s Rules of Procedure, a community meeting to discuss the project took place on September 30, 2024. Finally, it is recommended that the Board waive the provisions of (a) section 2-10.4.2 of the Code of Miami-Dade County, Florida requiring two MAI appraisals for County property if its estimated fair market value is over $5,000,000.00, and (b) Resolution No. R-333-15 related to the disclosure of the market rental of such property. As negotiated, the County will be receiving the financial benefits described above and commensurate public benefits, including a Miami-Dade Public Library branch, a community room, affordable housing, and the benefits listed on the Community Benefits Statement, below. None of these financial and commensurate public benefits would be considered by an appraiser or included in an appraisal. Pursuant to Resolution No. R-333-15, the Property Appraiser�s 2024 market value for the entire folio, comprised of approximately 1.19 - acres is $6,760,813.00. Community Benefits Statement The following are the benefits being provided by this project. In accordance with Ordinance No. 24-30, the following are the community benefits related to the development of the property: (1) Binding obligations and non-binding commitments to provide amenities, benefits, urban revitalization, cash incentives, or improvements to the community where the development is located, and benefits to adjacent or other communities affected by the development. The development is incorporating both affordable and market rate housing, a clubhouse, a public library with 7,800 square foot space on the first floor to be administered and operated by the Miami-Dade County Public Library system, subject to approval by the Miami-Dade County Public Library Department, free Wi-Fi enabled resident lounge, community art programs, health and wellness programs, and financial literacy classes amongst other amenities/benefits, all within the community. Moreover, the project will create 345 total apartments, including 65 replacement units,46 Faircloth-to-RAD subsidized units, 62 workforce housing units, and 172 unrestricted housing units. The County will derive a substantial income stream from the project. (2) Funds that are contractually required to be invested into the Development and the community. RUDG is required to obtain the funding to finance the project development and construction, which is expected to cost approximately $147,998,620.00 (which is calculating an approximate total development cost of $428,982.00 per the total 345 units). (3) Number and type of direct and indirect jobs, both temporary and permanent, anticipated to be created by the development, the wage benefit levels of each, and any apprentice or job training programs. The number and type of direct and indirect jobs is estimated to be a 468 new construction and 6 new permanent jobs. RUDG is also required to comply with the federal Section 3 program, which requires that recipients of certain HUD financial assistance, to the greatest extent possible, provide training, employment, contracting and other economic opportunities to low- and very low-income persons, especially recipients of government assistance for housing, and to businesses that provide economic opportunities to low- and very low-income persons. Additionally, the Davis-Bacon wage schedule in effect for Miami-Dade County. The project is expected to provide temporary constructions jobs, including electricians, plumbers, general contractors, and permanent positions including property managers, security jobs, janitorial services, landscaping, and other maintenance personnel. (4) Neighborhood amenities and infrastructure that will be created by the development, including streetscape improvements, green space, and park. In addition, to the affordable and market rate housing, the project will provide the following neighborhood amenities and infrastructure: Enhanced sidewalk improvements with new landscape, public library, community art programs, and a health and wellness program. They will also offer financial literacy classes. RUDG has agreed to complete the project, including the building and apartments, with all of the following development amenities: a. Community Room Space b. Coworking space c. Fitness Center d. Amenity deck with pool e. Wi-fi enabled resident lounge f. Professionally curated art throughout common areas and public spaces g. Gated entry with controlled access h. CPTED/Security cameras i. Dog washing station and dog walking areas j. Reserved parking for residents k. Private enclosed bike storage l. Open green spaces m. On-site property management n. Generators for community space Apartment Amenities for each apartment will include the following: a. Washer/Dryers b. Granite or comparable material for counter tops c. Dishwashers d. Refrigerators with ice makers e. HVAC/Smart Fans Systems f. Tile Flooring g. Electric Water Heaters (5) Compliance, reporting, and monitoring of contractual requirements. RUDG will provide all the reports necessary to monitor the development progress, construction, operations, and all proof of revenue generated by the project that supports the revenues belonging to the County. (6) Consequences for failure to meet any contractual requirements and the County�s remedies. Failure of RUDG to develop the project as required by the MDA, and/or any default activity, the County will have the right to terminate the lease and the MDA for default or request liquidated damages to the County. ________________________________ Cathy Burgos, LCSW Chief Community Services Officer |
