# Special Magistrate Hearing -  11/04/2026

North Miami’s Special Magistrate code-compliance hearing was held November 4, 2026. The magistrate considered property, building, vehicle, business-licensing, and safety-recertification violations; this was an enforcement hearing, not a procurement meeting. No contracts, bids, vendor selections, purchasing decisions, or procurement-related budget allocations were identified. The clerk reported numerous agenda cases tabled to later dates and several cases that had come into compliance and were removed from future agendas.

The magistrate found violations in multiple cases and issued abatement deadlines, generally 30 days, with $100 administrative costs and daily fines if violations remained unresolved. Rulings included a $500-per-day fine for illegal interior subdivision of a single-family residence; $350 and $250 per day in two existing cases involving a commercial parking lot and its certificate-of-use process; and $500 per day in several building recertification cases. Other orders set contingent fines commonly at $250 per day, while fines in some previously adjudicated cases were imposed from their earlier compliance dates. One animal-related case resulted in a one-time $250 fine plus costs. One boat-variance case was tabled to December 2 to allow the owner time to complete the application process.
