CHARTER AMENDMENT, ARTICLE 7 ADVERTISING

Policy Council · 2026-07-13 · 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 to expand allowable advertising within parks. The proposed amendment aims to remove the current restriction that advertising must be related to sponsorship of events or facilities in the parks, provided it does not unreasonably impair public use or damage the park. Any revenue generated would be exclusively for the park where the advertising occurs. This initiative is driven by the Parks, Recreation, and Open Spaces Department's challenges in generating revenue to support operations and fund new projects. The resolution requires a two-thirds vote of commissioners present for placement on the ballot, and the final decision rests with the voters.
