HUD took administrative control of the Miami-Dade, Fla., Housing Agency (MDHA) on October 26 after reaching an agreement with Miami-Dade County settling a lawsuit filed by the county to block the takeover.rnUnder the agreement, HUD will oversee all MDHA activities, including public housing and the Section 8 voucher program. Donald J. LaVoy, a senior adviser in the HUD Office of Public and Indian Housing, was put in charge of MDHA operations. LaVoy is a former director of the HUD Real Estate Assessment Center and has worked with PHAs to ensure that HOPE VI developments are completed according to deadlines.
