INCREASING SECURITY GUARD

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

Miami-Dade County 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 October 1, 2026, to September 30, 2027. The total assessment for these 20 districts is $10,490,955. These funds are necessary to continue providing security guard services, covering contractual increases from private security companies and off-duty police, and maintaining service levels. Failure to approve the rates could result in reduced service hours and unattended guard gates. The ordinance was adopted on first reading on May 5, 2026, and finally adopted on June 2, 2026. A public hearing was held on June 2, 2026, with no public speakers. The assessments will be placed on the 2026 real property tax bills and may result in loss of title if not paid.
