CHARTER AMENDMENT, ARTICLE 7 ADVERTISING

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

Miami-Dade County is calling a countywide special election on November 3, 2026, to allow voters to decide on amending the Home Rule Charter. The proposed amendment aims to expand allowable advertising within county parks. Currently, advertising is permitted only in connection with sponsorship of events or facilities, provided it is compatible with the park and does not unreasonably impair public use or damage the park. The amendment seeks to remove the sponsorship requirement, potentially increasing revenue for the Parks, Recreation, and Open Spaces Department (PROS) without raising taxes. Any revenue generated would be exclusively for the park system. The resolution requires a two-thirds vote of commissioners present for placement on the ballot, and the election itself will be decided by a majority of voters. The matter was introduced on July 14, 2026, and is scheduled for the Board of County Commissioners agenda on July 21, 2026.
