The hearing will be held at 5:05 p.m. on September 10, 2026, in the City Commission
Chambers at City Hall, 3500 Pan American Drive, Miami, Florida, to receive public comment on
the proposed assessments. All affected property owners have a right to appear at the hearing
and to file written objections with the City Commission within twenty (20) days of this notice. If a
person decides to appeal any decision made by the City Commissioners regarding any matter
considered at the hearing, such person will need a record of the proceedings and may need to
ensure that a verbatim record is made, including the testimony and evidence on which the appeal
is to be based. In accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, persons needing special
accommodation or a sign language interpreter to participate in this proceeding should contact the
Office of the City Clerk at (305) 250-5361, TTY users may call via 711 (Florida Relay Service), at
least seven (7) days before the date of the hearing.
The assessment for each parcel of property will be based on each parcel's classification
and the total number of billing units attributed to that parcel. The total Solid Waste estimated
amount to be assessed and collected for the Fiscal Year commencing October 1, 2026, is $24.500
million, while the full cost of Solid Waste services is approximately $66.211 million. The following

preliminary assessment roll are available for inspection at the Office of the City Clerk of Miami,
Florida, 3500 Pan American Drive, Miami, Florida.
Unless proper steps are initiated in a court of competent jurisdiction to secure relief within
twenty (20) days from the date of City Commission action at the above hearing (including the
method of apportionment, the rate of assessment, and the imposition of assessments), such
action shall be the final adjudication of the issues presented.
The assessments will be collected on the same bill as ad valorem taxes. Failure to pay
the assessment will result in either the commencement of foreclosure proceedings or cause a tax
certificate to be issued against the property, which may result in a loss of title.
