INCREASING SECURITY GUARD

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-06-02 · ordinance

Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners adopted an ordinance approving, adopting, and ratifying non-ad valorem assessment rolls, rates, and assessments for 20 certain security guard special taxing districts for the fiscal year commencing October 1, 2026, and ending September 30, 2027. The total assessment for these 20 districts is $10,490,955. The purpose is to fund security guard services, including contractual increases from private security companies and off-duty police, to maintain the required level of service. The assessments are levied on properties within the affected districts and will be collected similarly to ad valorem taxes, with potential for loss of title if not paid. A public hearing was held, and no one appeared to speak. The ordinance was adopted on first reading on May 5, 2026, and finally adopted on June 2, 2026.
