CHARTER AMENDMENT, ARTICLE 7 ADVERTISING

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

Miami-Dade County is calling a countywide special election on November 3, 2026, to allow voters to decide on amending the Home Rule Charter. The proposed amendment would expand allowable advertising within county parks, aiming to generate revenue for the Parks, Recreation, and Open Spaces Department (PROS) without raising taxes. Currently, advertising is limited to sponsorships of events or facilities, provided it is compatible with the park and does not impair public use. The amendment seeks to remove the sponsorship requirement, allowing for more revenue-generating advertising, with all generated revenue to be used exclusively for the park system. This measure requires a two-thirds vote of commissioners present to be placed on the ballot and a majority of voters to pass. The resolution was introduced on July 14, 2026, and forwarded to the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) with a favorable recommendation on July 13, 2026, for an agenda date of July 21, 2026.
