CHARTER AMENDMENT, ARTICLE 7 ADVERTISING

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

Miami-Dade County is holding a countywide special election on November 3, 2026, to vote on amending the Home Rule Charter, Article 7, to expand allowable advertising within parks. The proposed amendment aims to remove the requirement that advertising must be related to sponsorship of events or facilities, provided it does not unreasonably impair public use or damage the park, and that all revenue generated is exclusively for the park system. This initiative is driven by the Parks, Recreation, and Open Spaces Department's challenges in generating revenue to support operations and fund new projects and programs. The resolution requires a two-thirds vote of commissioners present to be placed on the ballot. The matter was introduced on 7/14/2026 and advanced to the Board of County Commissioners meeting on 7/21/2026.
