The preliminary assessment resolution for fire rescue rates for Fiscal Year 2026/2027 was approved by the City Commission on July 14, 2026 and maintains the rates the same as last year at $309.50.
At the public hearing on September 14, 2026, the City Commission will consider the adoption of a final assessment resolution that confirms the assessment. The preliminary rate set by the City Commission is $309.50 per year or $25.79 per month, per residential dwelling unit, which is well below the current average residential Fire Rescue Assessment rate in Broward County of $391.38. Commercial and other non-residential property rates will also remain the same as the last year.
