2026 CHARTER AMENDMENT (BOUNDARY COMMISSION)

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-07-21 · resolution

Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners (BCC) considered a resolution (File Number: 261184) to call a countywide special election on November 3, 2026, to vote on amending the Home Rule Charter to establish a Boundary Commission for annexations and incorporations. The Policy Council recommended forwarding the resolution to the BCC with a favorable recommendation as corrected. The resolution failed. The proposed charter amendment would create a commission to evaluate proposed annexations and incorporations on a three-year cycle, replacing the Planning Advisory Board's role and setting new procedures for petitions, public hearings, and approvals, including specific thresholds for elector and non-residential property owner consent.
