Miami Gardens sets proposed millage rate unchanged for FY 2026-27
Summary
Council approved a resolution to set a proposed millage rate for fiscal year 2026-27: operating millage 6.9363 (unchanged) and debt service millage 0.4137 related to the 2014 general obligation bond; public hearings will be scheduled.
City Manager Benson presented the proposed millage rates for fiscal year 2026-27 at the July 22 City Council meeting, recommending an operating millage of 6.9363 — unchanged for 14 years — and a debt service millage rate of 0.4137 tied to the city's 2014 general obligation bond. The council approved the resolution to set the proposed rates and scheduled public hearings.
"This is the resolution moving forward for the setting of the millage rate for next year's fiscal year," the manager said, and staff recommended the rates to proceed to the required public hearings. Council voted by voice to adopt the resolution establishing the proposed millage and hearing dates; no roll-call tally was recorded in the transcript.
The resolution directs staff to publish and hold the statutorily required hearings on the proposed millage and tentative budget. Specific hearing dates and the final adoption timeline will follow the legally required publication and noticing process.
