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, Article 7, to expand allowable advertising within parks. Currently, advertising is limited to sponsorship of events or facilities, provided it is compatible with the park and does not unreasonably impair public use or damage the park. The proposed amendment aims to remove the sponsorship requirement, potentially generating revenue for the Parks, Recreation, and Open Spaces Department (PROS) to support its operations and fund new projects, with all generated revenue exclusively for the park system. This requires a two-thirds vote of commissioners present to be placed on the ballot. 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.
