The Miami-Dade County Commission is deliberating the future of waste management following the closure of the Doral incinerator after a fire. Mayor Daniella Levine Cava suggests alternatives, including transporting waste to landfills rather than rebuilding the incinerator, due to opposition from local interests. A recent cost analysis highlights that Miami-Dade residents currently pay $697 annually for trash collection, and fees are expected to rise under any future disposal plan. The decision has been postponed for further analysis of public-private partnerships related to incinerator construction.
As the county decides on its waste disposal future, homeowners should prepare for increased garbage fees, irrespective of whether a new incinerator is built.
Mayor Levine Cava’s cost analysis confirms that no matter the chosen plan, Miami-Dade homeowners are likely to face rising garbage bills in the coming years.
