LICENSE AGREEMENT WITH KELCO

Transportation Cmte · 2026-07-14 · resolution

Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners is considering a resolution to waive formal bid procedures and approve a retroactive license agreement with Kelco Dadeland Associates, Ltd. (Kelco). The agreement allows Kelco to continue using Miami-Dade County real property, located at the northeast corner of S.W. 70th Avenue and US-1, for maintaining an illuminated directional sign for the Hampton Inn. The agreement is for a five-year term, retroactive to February 7, 2026, with four five-year options to renew, totaling a potential 25-year term. Kelco will pay an annual rent of $6,000, increasing by three percent each year. The waiver of formal bid procedures is necessary because Kelco is the only entity legally authorized to place the sign due to prior zoning variances and vested rights. The Transportation Committee forwarded this item with a favorable recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners.
