CHARTER AMENDMENT, ARTICLE 7 ADVERTISING

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

Resolution adopted by the Miami-Dade Board of County Commissioners calling a countywide special election to be held in conjunction with the General Election on Tuesday, November 3, 2026, to submit to voters the question of whether to amend the Home Rule Charter to expand allowable advertising within parks subject to Article 7. The amendment would remove the requirement that advertising in those parks must be related to sponsorship of events or facilities, provided such advertising does not unreasonably impair public use or damage the park, and any revenue generated be for the exclusive use of the park system. The resolution was adopted on 7/21/2026 by a two-thirds vote. Prime sponsor: Anthony Rodriguez. File Number: 261314. Reference: R-685-26. The Parks, Recreation, and Open Spaces Department (PROS) faces challenges generating revenue to support operations, and expanded advertising could alleviate budgetary constraints without raising taxes. No specific project site, address, parcel, acreage, or dollar amount is stated.
