Pardo said the city has been battling the property owners, Global Ministries Foundation for years. On Tuesday she toured the non-profit’s federally funded apartments with a staff member of Rubio’s office.

The Senator has toured complexes in Jacksonville and in Orlando, and today his staff toured the Stonybrook apartment complex in Riviera Beach. The situation they witnessed was no different from other GMF-owned properties.
