CHARTER AMENDMENT, ARTICLE 7 ADVERTISING

Policy Council · 2026-07-13 · 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) to support operations and new projects. Currently, advertising is limited to sponsorships of events or facilities, provided it is compatible with the park and does not impair public use or damage the park. The proposed change would remove the sponsorship requirement, allowing for more revenue-generating advertising, with all generated revenue to be used exclusively for the park where the advertising occurs. The resolution requires a two-thirds vote of commissioners present to be placed on the ballot, and the amendment itself will be decided by a majority of voters.
