The Miami‑Dade Board directed the mayor’s office to prepare written summaries of offers it expects to receive by Nov. 25 from two developer consortiums responding to the county’s July 2025 solicitation for a waste‑to‑energy (WTE) facility: a team led by Florida Power & Light (FPL) and a team led by FCC Environmental Services (FCC).

Chairman Rodriguez moved — and the board approved — a timetable that requires the mayor’s designee to 1) summarize the Nov. 25 offers, including site proposals consistent with the board’s July resolution R‑80125; 2) place the offers on the Dec. 16, 2025 meeting agenda for board evaluation and selection of a developer consortium based on ownership, technology, design, fees, funding and financing options; and 3) authorize the mayor’s designee to negotiate a development agreement with the board‑selected consortium and return with a negotiated predevelopment or project agreement by April 2026.

Commissioner Regalado asked that staff present information during committee meetings so the board and the public have time to review site proposals prior to a full board vote. Commissioners asked that financing structures, ownership models, technology choices and site information be included in the summaries and that county staff evaluate best‑value outcomes.

The motion amended elements of the July resolution timelines to conform with the new schedule. The board’s direction creates a public process and a firm timetable for board consideration and negotiation of competing WTE proposals; the motion passed on the dais without recorded roll‑call tallies in the public transcript excerpt.
