2026 CHARTER AMENDMENT (CONSTITUTIONAL OFFICERS)

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

Miami-Dade County is holding a countywide special election on November 3, 2026, coinciding with the general election, to allow voters to decide on amendments to the Home Rule Charter. These amendments are proposed to address the reestablishment of elected County Constitutional Offices (Sheriff, Tax Collector, Property Appraiser, and Supervisor of Elections), clarify duties related to finance and budget between the Clerk and the County, and require County employees to take a leave of absence when running for an elected constitutional office. The resolution was introduced on July 14, 2026, and is scheduled for the Board of County Commissioners agenda on July 21, 2026. The Charter Review Task Force recommended these changes with a unanimous vote.
