AMEND CDMP - COMMERCIAL VEHICLE STORAGE

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-07-21 · resolution

Legislative Matter File Number 260879 is a Resolution that failed on 7/21/2026. The resolution would have directed the County Mayor to file an application to amend the Comprehensive Development Master Plan (CDMP) to allow additional flexibility in satisfying the minimum acreage requirement for commercial vehicle storage in authorized locations, to conduct an evaluation and prepare a report on vacant County-owned parcels suitable for commercial vehicle storage, and to direct a limited stay of certain enforcement actions. The resolution was introduced on 5/14/2026, deferred on 12/16/2025 and 6/2/2026, and failed on 7/21/2026. The prime sponsor is Sen. Rene Garcia. The document references file number 252447. No specific address, parcel, size, applicant, or case number beyond the file number is stated. The document notes that Ordinance No. 20-116 allowed commercial vehicle storage on properties of at least 10 acres in certain areas designated as Open Land Subarea 1 and Agriculture, and that section 33-279 of the Code requires a minimum site size of 10 gross acres, with parcels that are adjoining, adjacent, or within 660 feet of each other. The resolution sought to allow properties within a certain distance of one another to be aggregated to achieve the minimum acreage requirement, even if not adjoining, adjacent, or within 660 feet, such as properties separated only by a roadway or a single intervening parcel, or under common ownership. It also directed an evaluation of all vacant County-owned properties across Miami-Dade County and a report within 90 days of the effective date. It directed a one-year stay of enforcement for commercial vehicle storage violations that would be legalized through the CDMP application and related Code changes. No public comment or stakeholder sentiment is stated in the document.
