RELATING TO PASSENGER MOTOR CARRIER VEHICLES

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

Miami-Dade County is amending its code regarding passenger motor carrier vehicles (PMCs). Specifically, Ordinance File Number 260868 revises sections 31-102 and 31-107 of the Code of Miami-Dade County, Florida. The key change is to the vehicle age requirements for PMCs providing circulator or fixed route services. Previously, these vehicles had a maximum age of 15 model years. The amendment allows these specific PMCs to operate up to 20 model years of age or 350,000 miles, whichever comes first, provided they continue to meet all inspection and vehicle standards. This change was prompted by a resolution from the City of Coral Gables and aims to align with their request. The ordinance was adopted on first reading by the Board of County Commissioners on June 2, 2026, amended and forwarded with a favorable recommendation by the Transportation Committee on July 14, 2026, and is pending BCC assignment. The effective date is ten days after enactment.
