2026-09-15 - City Commission

Summary

Built from the City's posted action summary (the Legistar "Minutes" link, which is an action summary, not approved minutes), as read. Formal minutes are approved roughly 2.5 months after a meeting, so none of the Commission records here are confirmed approved minutes. Public hearing items PH-4 onward and the rest of the agenda were not read.

• All five commissioners present: Dean J. Trantalis, Ben Sorensen, John C. Herbst, Steven Glassman and Pam Beasley-Pittman. Approved the July 2 minutes.
• Consent agenda included events (Margarita Festival, Las Olas Art Fair, a block party), see City Commission Events and Event Permits; an Arcadis lead and copper change order of $338,395, see Lead and Copper Water Line Work; and the cancellation of certain 2027 meetings for vacation.
• Resolutions adopted: AECOM parks bond capacity increase of $1.5 million, a secondary street name, Mary Brickell Avenue steps (see Mary Brickell Avenue Renaming), an FDOT Executive Airport (FXE) grant amendment of $2,031,028 and an airport lease consolidation (see Executive Airport Leases and Grants).
• Quasi-judicial site plans for Astor Progresso Village and Flagler Village Residences were approved. See Astor Progresso Village and Flagler Village Residences Site Plans.
• Public hearings: the Uptown transit-oriented development land use policy change was adopted on second reading; the Uptown Urban Village zoning provisions and a B-2 warehouse conditional use passed first reading. See Uptown Urban Village Land Use and Zoning.
