What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Miami-Dade County housing officials stated that demolition is not currently part of the plan for North Park, which is managed by the county. Instead, the county is considering using the Rental Assistance Demonstration program (RAD) to convert the public housing assistance from Section 9 to Section 8. Furthermore, affiliates of McCormack Baron, North Park’s current owner, are discussing selling their ownership interest to Smith & Henzy, who has expressed interest in renovating the existing apartments rather than demolishing them.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The potential RAD conversion could bring additional funding into North Park to address significant maintenance needs. This process involves a change in public housing assistance structure and may lead to a transfer of ownership and management responsibilities.
