The Miami‑Dade County Planning Advisory Board voted unanimously to find the Golds Community Redevelopment Area (CRA) redevelopment plan consistent with the county’s Comprehensive Development Master Plan (CDMP). 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.
