Board of County Commissioners: July 2026
Miami-Dade County
2026 CHARTER AMENDMENT (BOUNDARY COMMISSION)
Miami-Dade County Board of County Commissioners (BCC) considered a resolution (File Number: 261184) to call a countywide special election on November 3, 2026, to vote on amending the Home Rule Charter to establish a Boundary Commission for annexations and incorporations. The Policy Council recommended forwarding the resolution to the BCC with a favorable recommendation as corrected. The resolution failed. The proposed charter amendment would create a commission to evaluate proposed annexations and incorporations on a three-year cycle and provide recommendations. The question for voters would be: Shall the Charter be amended to establish a Boundary Commission to review and make recommendations on municipal boundary changes and incorporations, replacing the Planning Advisory Board's role, and to set new procedures and requirements for petitions, public hearings, and approvals related to boundary changes and the creation of new municipalities, including specific thresholds for elector and non-residential property owner consent, and a collective three-year review process for proposals?
