RTZ LIVE LOCAL COVENANTS

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-06-02 · ordinance

Miami-Dade County Ordinance 260593 creates Section 33-39.5 of the County Code, establishing procedures for the administrative acceptance and approval of covenants related to the Live Local Act. This ordinance applies to proposed developments within Transit-Oriented Developments (TODs) or designated areas. It allows for administrative approval of covenants that specify development parameters such as maximum height, density, floor area ratio, and parking, even if the property is not currently eligible for Live Local Act development or its current zoning designation differs. Modifications to these covenants can also be made administratively, unless they do not meet administrative standards, in which case they require approval by the Board of County Commissioners after a public hearing. The ordinance was amended and forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners, with a final version expected under File Number 261065.
