Miami Lakes to set tentative millage July 28; staff to supply updated state estimates in August
Summary
Staff asked council to set a tentative millage at a special call on July 28; staff will transmit numbers to the property appraiser August 4 and provide updated state estimates before final hearings in September.
On the procedural side, budget director Melissa Hernandez reiterated the immediate decision for council: set a tentative millage at the special call meeting on July 28. She said staff will transmit the chosen tentative millage to the property appraiser on August 4 and that TRIM notices to residents are scheduled for August 24; two final budget hearings are scheduled for Sept. 10 and Sept. 24.
Hernandez told council that several state revenue estimates needed to complete the picture are expected in August and that staff will return with updated figures and the Excel backup for line‑by‑line review. The manager additionally offered one‑on‑one briefings for council members who want deeper line‑by‑line walkthroughs before the tentative vote.
