City Commission Meeting - June 11, 2026

The City of Miami Commission held a meeting on June 11, 2026, which included multiple proclamations, public comments, and discussions on various agenda items. Key procurement-related actions included the approval of a special event permit for a community soccer field activation by Miami Bethany Community Services, Inc., and the awarding of a lease contract for the redevelopment of the Virginia Key Marina property to Virginia Key LLC. This lease involves a guaranteed annual rent of $2.2 million with escalations and percentage rent, subject to voter approval in a November 2026 referendum. The commission also deferred several items for further review, including a plat approval related to a private road and tree preservation appeals. Additionally, the newly formed Alipata Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) held its first meeting, approving resolutions to authorize administrative support and review processes. The Omni CRA approved a $500,000 tree preservation and relocation assistance program to support the preservation of shade trees impacted by development. Throughout the meeting, commissioners emphasized the importance of transparency, community involvement, and adherence to court orders, particularly regarding the Virginia Key Marina lease award.
