COMMISSION MEMORANDUM
10:25 a.m. First Reading Public Hearing
RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends that the Mayor and City Commission (City Commission) approve the subject ordinance at First Reading and schedule a Second Reading public hearing for October 29, 2025.
BACKGROUND/HISTORY
On February 3, 2025, at the request of Commissioner David Suarez, the City Commission referred a discussion item pertaining to cancelled Land Use Board (LUB) meetings and member attendance requirements (C4 AW) to the Land Use and Sustainability Committee (LUSC). On June 10, 2025, the LUSC discussed the proposal and recommended that the City Commission refer an ordinance amending the Land Development Regulations of the City Code (LDRs) to the Planning Board, in accordance with the recommendations in the LUSC memo. On July 23, 2025, at the request of Commissioner David Suarez, the City Commission referred the proposed ordinance to the Planning Board (C4 B).
ANALYSIS
Attached is a draft ordinance amending Chapter 2 of the LDRs, specific to cancelled or rescheduled LUB meetings. The ordinance creates a section for LUB meetings that are cancelled or rescheduled after the agenda items have been noticed. In these instances, all items on the agenda of the cancelled or rescheduled meeting would automatically be placed on the agenda of the next LUB meeting. Additionally, a minimum 5-day courtesy notice for the agenda items that were cancelled or rescheduled would be provided on a publicly accessible website hosted by Miami-Dade County.
The Administration is supportive of the proposed ordinance, as it provides greater clarity regarding the notice requirements for cancelled or rescheduled LUB meetings.
PLANNING BOARD REVIEW
On September 9, 2025, the Planning Board held a public hearing and transmitted the proposed ordinance to the City Commission with a favorable recommendation (7-0).
