🚲 🛴 MIAMI’S NEW SIDEWALK RULES: E-BIKES VS. REGULAR BICYCLES
On October 22, 2026, the Miami City Commission approved Ordinance 14497, creating Section 8-20 of the City Code to regulate electric bicycles, motorized scooters, and other micromobility devices.
🛴 E-BIKES & ELECTRIC SCOOTERS
Riding on public sidewalks and pedestrian walkways under City jurisdiction is prohibited. Riders must use bike lanes where available or permitted streets posted at 30 mph or less.
Additional rules:
• Riders must be at least 16 years old.
• Maximum riding speed is 20 mph.
• Government-issued photo ID is required.
• Violations may result in $100 fines.
You may still WALK your e-bike or scooter on the sidewalk.
🚲 REGULAR BICYCLES
Here’s the important difference: traditional pedal-powered bicycles are NOT included in this new sidewalk ban.
Under Florida Statute 316.2065, regular bicycles can generally use sidewalks. However, cyclists MUST yield to pedestrians and give an audible warning before passing.
The ordinance applies to City-controlled areas. County and state roads may have different restrictions.
Safer sidewalks start with all of us.

Miami-Dade County has approved nearly $12 million in federal funding to strengthen homelessness services across Miami, including the Wynwood/Edgewater corridor.
On October 20, 2026, county commissioners ratified acceptance of a $11.91 million federal grant to support the Miami Safe Streets Collaborative, led by the Miami-Dade County Homeless Trust.
Over four fiscal years, the initiative aims to expand street outreach, mental health and substance use treatment, recovery services, and pathways to stable housing for people living unsheltered.
For Edgewater residents, this is an important development. Homelessness, public safety, and quality of life are interconnected issues that require coordinated, compassionate, and sustainable solutions.
While the funding has been approved, a neighborhood-specific rollout date has not yet been announced.
BNA will continue monitoring implementation, accountability, and measurable results to ensure our community stays informed.

Edgewater, we could not be more excited about this! 🏙️🌳
Since the beginning of our term in office, we’ve heard from residents that Edgewater needs a stronger sense of identity and character, much like so many of the other neighborhoods throughout District 2.
That’s why we’ve been working on an Edgewater Strategic Master Plan to help shape the neighborhood’s future! From connectivity and walkability to open spaces, streets, and neighborhood character, we want to create a long-term vision that reflects the people who live here.
But we can’t do it without you! We want to hear your ideas, concerns, and priorities. Your input will help shape what Edgewater looks like for years to come.

Stronger neighborhoods begin with conversations that lead to action. Today, the Biscayne Neighborhoods Association brought together community board directors, property management teams, and neighborhood leaders at FORMA for an important conversation with District 2 Commissioner Damian Pardo, Miami Police Chief Edwin Lopez, Commander Chin Quee, and representatives from the Miami Police Department and City of Miami.
👮 Chief Lopez shared his vision for a safer Miami, emphasizing increased police presence, better equipment for officers, and a department built around people who are not only capable, but genuinely kind and committed to serving others.
His message was clear: Quality of life matters. From homelessness and excessive vehicle noise to animal cruelty and everyday public safety concerns, the Chief is prioritizing the issues residents experience firsthand. He’s also taking the time to meet with residents one on one, listen to their concerns, and work toward meaningful solutions.
🏙️ Commissioner Pardo discussed the future of our neighborhoods, including the City’s master planning efforts, improvements to Margaret Pace Park, resilience funding, and the importance of continued community involvement. He also welcomed BNA’s newly established committees, many of whose members were in attendance.
At BNA, we believe that real progress happens when residents, community leaders, law enforcement, and city officials come together, listen to one another, and work toward shared solutions.
A heartfelt thank you to Commissioner Pardo, Chief Lopez, Commander Chin Quee, the entire Miami Police and City of Miami teams, and everyone who joined us today. Special thanks to FORMA for hosting this important gathering.
This is what community leadership looks like. And this is how we build a better Miami, together. 💙

🏛️ A century of Miami history. A new chapter for Edgewater? At 1836 Biscayne Boulevard stands one of our neighborhood’s architectural landmarks: the First Church of Christ, Scientist, built in 1926. Nearly 100 years later, a proposed redevelopment could give this historic property an entirely new future.
The plan calls for a 43-story residential tower with 406 rental apartments, commercial space, and a new pedestrian plaza along Biscayne Boulevard.
But what makes this project particularly interesting is the effort to incorporate portions of the historic church into the new development.
The proposal would preserve its prominent Biscayne Boulevard and NE 19th Street façades while removing other portions of the original structure to accommodate the tower.
On October 21, Miami’s Urban Development Review Board voted 3–1 to recommend approval of the revised design. This is not final approval. The project still requires review by the City’s Historic and Environmental Preservation Board.
For a neighborhood like Edgewater, where development continues to reshape our skyline, this proposal raises an important question: How do we make room for Miami’s future while preserving the architecture that tells the story of its past?
At the Biscayne Neighborhoods Association, we believe thoughtful development, historic preservation, and vibrant public spaces are all important parts of a thriving community.
Swipe through to explore the plans, the architectural renderings, and what happens next.
💬 What do you think of the proposal? Can historic preservation and modern development coexist successfully?

🗳️ Part four of our 2026 Voter Guide is here!. For the final installment of our nonpartisan election series, we’re looking at three Miami-Dade County referendums on the November 3 ballot that address how our local government operates and how public spaces are managed.
In this edition, we’re breaking down:
🏛️ Referendum 3 | Vacancy Elections & Municipal Qualifying Standards: A proposal to allow certain special elections to coincide with already scheduled elections and establish minimum qualifying-period standards for municipal candidates.
⚖️ Referendum 4 | Constitutional Offices: Proposed updates to the County Charter concerning elected constitutional officers, financial responsibilities, and requirements for County employees seeking certain elected offices.
🌳 Referendum 6 | Advertising in Parks: A proposal to expand commercial advertising opportunities in certain County parks, with the revenue reserved for the parks system.
While these questions may not receive as much attention as candidate races, they address important decisions about local government, election procedures, and the use of public spaces.
At the Biscayne Neighborhoods Association, we believe informed residents help build stronger communities. Throughout this four-part series, our goal has been to make election information more accessible and easier to understand.
This voter guide is strictly informational and nonpartisan. BNA does not endorse any particular outcome or recommend how residents should vote.

🗳️ Part three of our 2026 Voter Guide is here!
This time, we’re moving beyond the candidates to explore three important ballot questions that could shape Florida’s property taxes, Miami’s public safety infrastructure, and the future of one of our city’s most valuable waterfront properties.
In this edition, we’re breaking down:
🏠 Florida Constitutional Amendment 3 | Property Tax Changes: A proposal to expand homestead exemptions and change property assessment limits, with potential implications for homeowners and local government revenue.
🚒 City of Miami Referendum 1 | Safe and Ready Miami: A proposed $450 million bond program to fund improvements to police, fire-rescue, and public safety facilities. Voting yes would mean an increase in taxes.
🌴 City of Miami Referendum 3 | Virginia Key Marina: A proposal involving a long-term lease of public waterfront property, private redevelopment investment, and potential revenue for the City.
Unlike candidate races, these ballot questions ask voters to make decisions about specific policies, public investments, and the future of our community.
At the Biscayne Neighborhoods Association, we believe understanding what is on the ballot is an essential part of civic engagement. Our goal is to explain what each proposal would do and what voters are being asked to consider.
This series is strictly informational and nonpartisan. BNA is not endorsing any particular outcome or recommending how residents should vote.
