RE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION, SITE CLEANUPS

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

This ordinance amends Section 24-44 of the Miami-Dade County Code to allow for the approval of non-recorded institutional controls for contaminated site cleanups, specifically for sites owned or operated by a governmental entity. This change facilitates 'no further action with conditions' site closures by permitting governmental entities to use non-recorded restrictions, provided they offer equivalent protection to recorded controls and are enforceable. The ordinance outlines an administrative appeal process for decisions on non-recorded institutional controls and requires the Director to maintain a registry of approved controls. It was introduced on 6/26/2026 and tentatively scheduled for a public hearing on 7/21/2026 before the Recreation, Tourism, and Resiliency Committee.
