The purpose of the proposal, led by Commissioner Damian Pardo, is to move the city to even-year elections. But the fine prints including delaying the upcoming election -- currently happening five months from today -- until 2026.

Could the Miami mayor get a 17th consecutive year in elected office? Could Joe Carollo get a 9th year as commissioner?. A proposal is going before the City Commission that would skip the Nov. election & give the current officials an extra year in office.
