RELATING TO THE RULES OF PROCEDURE OF THE BCC
This legislative item, File Number 260035, is an ordinance amending Section 2-1 of the Code of Miami-Dade County, Florida, relating to the rules of procedure for public meetings on housing projects. The ordinance requires public meetings for housing projects, including the development or redevelopment of public housing and other affordable housing. The Housing Committee deferred the item on March 10, 2026, after discussing proposed amendments. The Board of County Commissioners adopted the ordinance on first reading on February 18, 2026. The proposed amendments, discussed extensively, aimed to mandate a minimum of three public meetings, held at accessible times and locations (including hybrid/virtual options), with costs borne by the developer. Public commenters, including representatives from Miami Homes for All, Ebenezer United Methodist Church, and People Acting for Community Together (PACT), expressed strong support for increased public engagement, emphasizing the need for accessible meetings, clear notification, and developer accountability for community benefits. Concerns were raised about the vagueness of the original ordinance and the timing of meetings relative to the development process. The ordinance is intended to enhance community participation in housing development decisions.
