“We have had the conversation and recognize we have a problem — but it will take much more than that for our communities to effectively deal with the “housing crisis” confronting diverse segments of our community. I believe it is most timely to highlight The City of Miami EB-5 Regional Center front and center as a tool to implement an ambitious agenda to build housing projects to meet our construction project development needs.
Therefore, I call upon our civic, business and political leadership to partner with The City of Miami EB-5 Regional Center to develop specialized housing construction projects to include, but not limited to, affordable, workforce, median income, living facilities for the elderly, assisted living facilities and retirement communities which offer medical and other support to residents.”
