RE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION, SITE CLEANUPS

Miami-Dade County is considering an ordinance (File Number: 261179) that amends Section 24-44 of the County Code. The proposed ordinance allows for the approval of non-recorded institutional controls for "No Further Action with Conditions" site closures in connection with contaminated site cleanups, specifically for sites owned or operated by a governmental entity. This change aims to provide an alternative to recorded institutional controls, potentially reducing transactional costs while maintaining equivalent protection for human health, public safety, and the environment. The ordinance also clarifies procedures for appealing the Director's decision on non-recorded institutional controls, with appeals going to the Board of County Commissioners. Public comment on specific site closures is required when contamination extends beyond property boundaries. The ordinance was introduced on 6/26/2026 and is scheduled for an agenda date of 7/21/2026.
