RELATING TO PASSENGER MOTOR CARRIER VEHICLES

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

This ordinance revises vehicle age requirements for passenger motor carrier vehicles (PMCs) in Miami-Dade County. Specifically, it amends sections 31-102 and 31-107 of the Code of Miami-Dade County. The change allows PMCs providing circulator or fixed route services to operate until they reach the earlier of 20 model years of age or 350,000 miles of usage, provided they remain in compliance with all applicable county inspection requirements and vehicle standards. This change was prompted by a resolution from the City of Coral Gables urging the county to amend the code. The ordinance was adopted on first reading by the Board of County Commissioners and is scheduled for a public hearing before the Transportation Committee. The document notes that 4-6 weeks are required for processing.
