A RESOLUTION OF THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF THE
CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, URGING THE FLORIDA
LEGISLATURE TO ADOPT AND STRENGTHEN SENATE BILL 840
(2026) TO RESTORE COMMUNITY PLANNING AUTHORITY TO LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS IN FLORIDA WHILE PRESERVING THE
EMERGENCY RELIEF AND RESPONSE PROVISIONS ADOPTED AS
PART OF SENATE BILL 180 (2025); URGING THE LEGISLATURE TO
AMEND SB 840 TO ADDRESS THE RETROACTIVE APPLICATION OF
SB 180 TO COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND LAND DEVELOPMENT
REGULATION AMENDMENTS ADOPTED PRIOR TO THE
ENACTMENT OF SB 180; AND, FURTHER, DIRECTING THE CITY
CLERK TO TRANSMIT A COPY OF THIS RESOLUTION TO THE BILL
SPONSOR, THE PRESIDENT OF THE FLORIDA SENATE, THE
SPEAKER OF THE FLORIDA HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, AND
THE CITY'S STATE LEGISLATIVE DELEGATION.
WHEREAS, Senate Bill 840, filed by Senator Nick DiCeglie during the 2026 State
Legislative Session, takes meaningful steps toward restoring community planning authority to
local governments in Florida following the enactment of Senate Bill 180 in 2025; and
WHEREAS, SB 180, which was intended to improve the ability of state and local
governments to plan for and respond to natural disasters including hurricanes, included various
changes to state laws governing emergency preparation and response activities of state and local
governments; and
WHEREAS, SB 180 was amended prior to adoption to provide that each municipality in a
county listed in the Federal Disaster Declarations for Hurricane Debby, Hurricane Helene, and
Hurricane Milton "may not propose or adopt more restrictive or burdensome amendments to its
comprehensive plan or land development regulations; or propose or adopt more restrictive or
burdensome procedures concerning review, approval, or issuance of a site plan, development
permit, or development order, to the extent that those terms are defined by s. 163.3164, Florida
Statutes, before October 1, 2027"; and
WHEREAS, the law also provides that "any such . . . restrictive or burdensome
comprehensive plan amendment, land development regulation, or procedure shall be null and
void ab initio," and that "[t]his subsection applies retroactively to August 1, 2024"; and
WHEREAS, all counties in Florida, including Miami -Dade County, were listed in the
Federal Disaster Declarations for Hurricanes Debby, Helene, or Milton, all of which struck Florida
in 2024; and
WHEREAS, SB 180 therefore broadly prevents all local governments in Florida, until
October 1, 2027, from adopting any comprehensive plan or land development regulation
amendment, or procedure concerning a site plan, development permit, or development order, that
is at all more restrictive than the requirements in effect prior to August 1, 2024; and
WHEREAS, in addition to the one-time preemption between August 1, 2024, and October
1, 2027, the law also provides that any city or county located within 100 miles of the track of a
storm declared to be a hurricane shall be prohibited, for a period of 1 year after the hurricane
makes landfall, from adopting certain development moratoria, a "more restrictive or burdensome
amendment to its comprehensive plan or land development regulations," or a "more restrictive or
burdensome procedure concerning review, approval, or issuance of a site plan, development
permit, or development order ...."; and
WHEREAS, these provisions restrict the City from enforcing or enacting comprehensive
plan and land development regulation amendments that are intended to promote public safety,
make development more resilient, and protect residents' quality of life; and
WHEREAS, SB 840 restores much of the City's community planning authority which was
preempted by SB 180 while retaining many of its emergency relief and response provisions; and
WHEREAS, as currently drafted, SB 840 limits the applicability of future restrictions on
amendments to the comprehensive plan, land development regulations, and procedures to cities
or counties located within 50 miles of the track of a storm declared to be a hurricane, instead of
100 miles, and requires such cities or counties to be listed in a federal major disaster declaration;
and
WHEREAS, as currently drafted, SB 840 limits the applicability of the restrictions on
development moratoria, comprehensive planning, or land development regulations to properties
that were actually damaged during a hurricane, and exempts regulations adopted to comply with
state or federal law, as well as regulations implementing a floodplain management standard
relating to the National Flood Insurance Program; and
WHEREAS, the Mayor and City Commission hereby urge the Florida Legislature to adopt
and further strengthen SB 840, in order to restore the City's home rule authority to adopt land -use
legislation that promotes the health, safety, welfare, and quality of life of the City's residents,
businesses, and visitors.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND CITY COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF MIAMI BEACH, FLORIDA, that the Mayor and City Commission hereby urge the
Florida Legislature to adopt and strengthen Senate Bill 840 (2026) to restore community planning
authority to local governments in Florida while preserving the emergency relief and response
provisions adopted as part of Senate Bill 180 (2025); urge the Legislature to amend SB 840 to
address the retroactive application of SB 180 to comprehensive plan and land development
regulation amendments adopted prior to the enactment of SB 180, and allow these amendments
to take effect once again; and, further, direct the City Clerk to transmit a copy of this Resolution
to Senator Nick DiCeglie (the bill sponsor), the President of the Florida Senate, the Speaker of
the Florida House of Representatives, and the City's State legislative delegation.
