County budget staff and consultants from Inspire Placemaking presented the draft redevelopment plan, a program of projects and a 10‑year tax‑increment financing (TIF) projection.

Consultants described a planning process that combined GIS and demographic analysis, a community workshop and an inventory of vacant and protected lands. The draft plan groups recommended actions into six categories — business & economic development, character & community, connectivity & mobility, housing, public space & recreation, and infrastructure — and outlined an initial 10‑year funding framework estimated at roughly $12 million over the first decade with long‑term TIF receipts rising over the CRA’s life.

Board members asked about TIF mechanics; county staff explained that the CRA would receive the increment above a baseline value through an interlocal agreement, and that the planning document is intended to guide how those funds are used for capital projects and programs within the CRA boundary. The PAB’s consistency finding allows the plan to proceed to the Board of County Commissioners for further consideration and any interlocal or implementation agreements.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Miami-Dade County - Planning Advisory Board - May 05, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The board found the Golds Community Redevelopment Area plan consistent with the county Comprehensive Development Master Plan; consultants described a staged program of projects and an initial 10‑year TIF revenue projection the plan would deploy for public improvements and economic development.","taxTitle","Miami-Dade County, Florida","taxId",2864,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6569209,"PAB recommends small Bluenest townhome site redesignation with DI‑1; applicant commits to workforce units",1717,13433000,15150000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3192313-4efb0231a0078a63f3944d9a0ac04ec6&start=13433&end=15150","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3192313-4efb0231a0078a63f3944d9a0ac04ec6/thumbnail_13433000.jpg","/articles/6569209/Miami-Dade-County/Florida/PAB-recommends-small-Bluenest-townhome-site-redesignation-with-DI1-applicant-commits-to-workforce-units","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6569209-3c0fd5a29cc84b8d0a65020b14a434d7/orig.mp4?Expires=1770404619&Signature=Xv2~cnGpP1~s3GPWUFBonxAXnpnn5rN535pZKQocHD1DIVmJeMqTj~2BGfWRuA30f4O5J9pJnC0C19h5R9wGkJqSJ-m~nrB-h9O5jOgu~cakjq~1WEyD-S~29tAZKmyLiYZ9GxpYzIruExHdU0YRtkBz3-UCetU4w4GMSvFGgCtOAyH7XL8R43AkfoY4n8Zf5yk58ivaBTtrkkYRBpYx5RqpSat2DJAfrS3vHVC1E-3rY-u1KgHgMiErQ~f1jmhuA3WMPiw~zFFyL~uCHgx2yALTqntXn~QAmbgcFs7GdCbL2DzishGNhsq8-3B3jt2fV4ZCNEPCWFxOBMXxLvhuaw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Planning Advisory Board unanimously recommended adoption of staff’s proposed CDMP land‑use change for a roughly 9‑acre Bluenest parcel north of SW 220th Street and east of SW 103rd Avenue, forwarding the recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners.

After limited public comment, the PAB voted to adopt the staff change and accept the applicant’s proffered declaration; members asked that the buy‑down financing commitment that had been discussed for other Bluenest applications also be included in the covenant for workforce buyers.

The PAB’s recommendation will be transmitted to the Board of County Commissioners, and staff noted that subsequent technical reviews (stormwater, tree/specimen documentation, right‑of‑way and traffic) would be required before final approvals and permits.","The Planning Advisory Board recommended staff’s suggested change to add a DI‑1 design overlay on an 8.96‑acre Bluenest parcel and accepted a covenant limiting units and committing to workforce housing; the vote was unanimous.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6569214,"PAB recommends Bluenest 41‑acre redesignation with design overlay, applicant proffers workforce housing",1477,12971000,14448000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3192313-4efb0231a0078a63f3944d9a0ac04ec6&start=12971&end=14448","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3192313-4efb0231a0078a63f3944d9a0ac04ec6/thumbnail_12971000.jpg","/articles/6569214/Miami-Dade-County/Florida/PAB-recommends-Bluenest-41acre-redesignation-with-design-overlay-applicant-proffers-workforce-housing","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6569214-944d864bcc191d8a9b3bdda232a45de4/orig.mp4?Expires=1770404619&Signature=hw8LJ~y9vMIl0-dFQj2sjJCevmX~X0N4AzpatMkT7TcPaUOoXndED4ZZLcEWSq4hB1z8IvzwgJUOEIC-RuGBq-Lhio0f9vzHOoLLRFcafIGbhBx7RXCuGlzRks7GAwtSejXW0UTaNoK2r1tqX6qXfBUpAZKczJHReZ1UxZSZa9ZWYEeOt3ARuzGgiU0Rlf4Bgx-aBht~mVLZlFbIJmNJMALMnIQ-g4HOHxVsv5KPRywH9HHRDvuF0hrUb~llZb9CzDjM6Z7kVt6~mcV8~ohCtyx~m5Lag19naCrsCtP8sgjVcxEVvaI~YSQr9CWrOiY1akSE2SAGVWYgvjL5nrmNlA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Miami‑Dade County’s Planning Advisory Board voted to adopt staff’s recommended change to the CDMP land‑use designation for a roughly 41‑acre Bluenest parcel north of SW 300th Street, forwarding the recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners. The applicant submitted a proffered declaration limiting development and committing to 20% of units as workforce housing, utility connections and mitigation; staff recommended a low‑density designation with a DI‑1 overlay to require stronger urban‑design measures and compatibility with adjacent homes.

Staff noted the parcel is currently a mix of agricultural and low‑density single‑family surroundings and observed nearby preserved lands and trees protected by county code. The applicant proffered 451 units with 20% workforce housing in the package presented to staff, and also agreed to utility extension and some design and lighting restrictions intended to reduce impacts on adjacent agricultural uses. The staff recommendation asked for the DI‑1 overlay to ensure form and design triggers that promote walkability and compatibility.

The South Redlands community council provided a “no recommendation” on the item; the transcript records opposition in public comment centering on traffic, drainage and preserving agricultural character. The PAB motion to adopt staff’s change passed 7–1; the board also asked that the applicant include the previously discussed financing buy‑down in the covenant as a condition recorded at the hearing.

Staff presented the application and said the applicant had submitted a proffered declaration of restrictions that limits development on the parcel to 320 dwelling units and commits to water and sewer connections and roadway mitigation funding for impacts to evacuation routes.

Noelle Stillings of the Planning Division summarized that the site is partly within the South Dade Smart Plan corridor and that, without the covenant, a medium‑density designation would allow as many as 504 multifamily units on the property; the covenant bounds the site to 320 units. The Planning Advisory Board accepted the applicant’s covenant and staff recommendation that the change be adopted with the applicant’s proffered restrictions.

Board discussion noted school‑capacity preliminaries in the staff packet: staff explained that the CDMP‑level analysis is preliminary and that public‑school capacity is addressed at subsequent development stages through proportionate‑share mitigation and interlocal steps with the school district. The board also recorded a condition to continue transit and connectivity conversations; the applicant said they would continue coordination with transit providers.

The board’s motion to adopt with acceptance of the applicant’s proffered declaration passed unanimously and will be transmitted to the Board of County Commissioners for final action.","The Planning Advisory Board voted unanimously to accept staff recommendation and the applicant’s proffered declaration limiting a Lennar project to 320 units as part of a CDMP land‑use amendment; staff noted school‑capacity and traffic mitigation steps that will be required in later development stages.",{"_33":112,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":113,"_41":114,"_43":115,"_45":116,"_47":117,"_49":118,"_51":119,"_53":120,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":121,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":122,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6569223,"Planning advisory board backs Bluenest Redlands townhomes with conditions after crowded public hearing",8850,360000,9210000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3192313-4efb0231a0078a63f3944d9a0ac04ec6&start=360&end=9210","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3192313-4efb0231a0078a63f3944d9a0ac04ec6/thumbnail_360000.jpg","/articles/6569223/Miami-Dade-County/Florida/Planning-advisory-board-backs-Bluenest-Redlands-townhomes-with-conditions-after-crowded-public-hearing","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6569223-f5a90bec46c7569c6650b7020d3c6e87/orig.mp4?Expires=1770404619&Signature=Nmm-jjBvjWrOOvj-5QqHnzbYNOqKjofPzaY931p3jXWmMOcrq5j-~mgsieObRGJuZC7kWxM2iK~y8Kco5agFudoMuHhbEha-kK~FHLLry7Kl~N~N5hEOip3yzf--lMQ41upHThGV8fYf5lTYTDwN4uuiJZc83HZIMuX1LyFzdie0yurqk-6GT650PNYrWBoXXhiaIeC8QlXLMsR0JSKlt3Vb-DktxVZLU5QJL7AQotzYV-hdrX~ogeK5pRluYishubY77z3CgY7yWH6taDaXw3wjrhlUYL~waVMGgWgrR1Gh-i2kYsNYEYA~BVwpPbX0VVri8YE~mK3d8CgIaRxO0g__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Miami‑Dade County’s Planning Advisory Board voted 6–2 to forward a recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners supporting a land‑use redesignation and a proffered covenant for the Bluenest Development LLC proposal in the Redlands, after a packed public hearing in which area residents and younger prospective buyers offered sharply divided views.

Staff recommended changing the site’s requested designation to low‑density residential with a DI‑1 (design increase) overlay, and asked the applicant to accept a proffer limiting unit count. Applicant counsel Pedro Gaston and other representatives said the developer wants to deliver workforce homeownership opportunities and offered a covenant limiting development and committing to public‑water and sewer connections, road improvements and a transit “last‑mile” contribution. At the hearing multiple speakers in favor described the proposal as workforce housing and home‑ownership opportunity; many neighbors opposed it on grounds of traffic, drainage, environmental impacts and loss of single‑family character.

The PAB ultimately accepted staff’s recommended land‑use change subject to conditions the board added: (1) the applicant must place in the CDMP covenant an express cap of 284 total units (the covenant offered by the applicant), (2) the applicant will add a financing “buy‑down” commitment for workforce buyers that staff will anchor in the covenant, and (3) the applicant will evaluate and work toward off‑site roadway infrastructure (discussed at the meeting as a route toward US‑1) to address access and circulation. The board recorded two “no” votes from its roll call; the motion passed by 6 votes to 2.

Staff and several board members repeatedly emphasized that a prior public presentation by the applicant’s representative that they might expand the project to about 500 units required separate review and could not be implemented informally — the planning process allows acreage and unit changes only following formal CDMP or community‑council actions.

The hearing included an unusually large turnout: the chair said more than 100 speaker cards were marked in favor and about 25 opposed, and the board heard a representative sampling of comments from both sides. Staff said additional environmental and stormwater analysis, right‑of‑way and traffic engineering, and the final covenant language must be cleared in later permitting and zoning stages; the board’s recommendation transmits the matter to the Board of County Commissioners for final action.","The Miami‑Dade County Planning Advisory Board recommended approval of a Bluenest Development land‑use change for a Redlands site, accepting a developer covenant that caps units and adds affordability and infrastructure commitments after extensive public comment and debate.","actionData","errors"]
