INCREASING SECURITY GUARD

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

Miami-Dade County adopted an ordinance 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. The ordinance aims to fund contractual increases from private security companies and off-duty police, ensuring the continuation of security guard services. Failure to approve the rates could result in reduced service hours and unattended guard gates. The assessments are levied on properties within the specified districts and will be collected with ad valorem taxes, with non-payment potentially leading to loss of title. The ordinance was adopted on first reading on May 5, 2026, and finally adopted on June 2, 2026. Exhibit A, referenced in the ordinance, contains the specific details of the 20 districts, their legal descriptions, units of measurement, and assessment amounts, but is not fully detailed in this document.
