Proposed by: Madeira Beach Board of Commissioners (Ordinance 2026-07)
The city's elected commission. A city charter is the city's rulebook. Florida law says city voters must approve any change to it.
A YES vote means
Start in November 2027 if all three election measures pass, while keeping city elections in odd years too. The shared-election cost is a county estimate for 2026, not a fixed future price.
A NO vote means
Keep city elections in March and stop the proposed schedule change. The county estimated a separate city election in 2026 at about $7,000, paid by taxpayers.
