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 County-owned property near the Dadeland North Metrorail Station, specifically at the northeast corner of S.W. 70th Avenue and US-1, to maintain an illuminated directional sign for the Hampton Inn. This agreement replaces a previous one that expired on February 6, 2026. Kelco is the only entity legally authorized to place the sign due to prior zoning variances. The agreement is for a five-year term, retroactive to February 7, 2026, with four five-year renewal options, totaling a potential 25-year term. Kelco will pay $6,000 annually, with a three percent increase each year. The total estimated rent over 25 years is $218,755. The Transportation Committee forwarded this item with a favorable recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners (BCC). The BCC is expected to vote on this matter on September 1, 2026.
