A. MOTION TO SUSPEND Section 18.7.j.1 of the Broward County Administrative Code (“Administrative Code”), which requires approval of a Commissioner-initiated Motion to Consider Rescission at the meeting prior to the Commission’s consideration of a Motion to Rescind a previous Commission action.

County Commission · 2026-05-12 · agenda_item

Broward County Commissioners have approved a resolution to hold a referendum election on November 3, 2026. This election will ask voters if they approve a 0.25% sales surtax for five years. The purpose of this surtax is to fund the Broward County Health Care Plan. This item has been approved by the commission and is now moving towards the election phase. The work this project would set in motion involves public outreach and election administration. The primary opportunity for local businesses lies in providing services related to the election process and potentially in the future funding of the health care plan if the surtax is approved. Contractors, suppliers, and service providers interested in future work related to the health care plan should monitor its progress and consider reaching out to county officials to understand potential needs as the plan develops.
