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

This legislative matter concerns an ordinance amending Section 2-1 of the Code of Miami-Dade County, Florida, relating to the Rules of Procedure of the Board of County Commissioners. The amendment revises requirements for notification provided by the County Mayor or designee to district commissioners regarding matters originating with the administration. Specifically, it changes the notification requirement from matters that predominantly relate to 'one or more districts simultaneously' to 'all commissioners'. This notification is in addition to other requirements and must be confirmed in the Mayor's memorandum. Exceptions apply to matters concerning properties or facilities of regional or countywide significance, such as airports or seaports, where a written statement confirming notification is not required. The ordinance was adopted on first reading on June 2, 2026, forwarded with a favorable recommendation by the Intergovernmental and Economic Impact Committee on July 15, 2026, and is pending BCC Assignment. It was previously deferred on May 5, 2026, at the request of Commissioner Bastien.
