Hollywood city · November 3, 2026
The question on your ballot
Amending Charter Article XIII, "Limitation on Sale, Lease or Purchase of City-Owned Real Property," providing such leases of property for 20 years or longer, including renewals, require a five-sevenths approval of City Commission; providing such sales or leases of 50 years or longer, including renewals, of City-owned parks, golf courses, recreational facilities, designated historic properties, or properties east of the Intracoastal Waterway require majority approval of City's electors. Should Article XIII of the City Charter entitled “Limitation on Sale, Lease or Purchase of City-Owned Real Property” be amended in the various ways described above?
In plain language
A VoterDecoder summary of the official measure text.
Hollywood voters are asked whether to change the charter's limits on the sale, lease, or purchase of city-owned real property. Under the amendment, leases of 20 years or longer would require approval by five-sevenths of the City Commission. Renewals count toward those terms. Sales or leases of 50 years or longer of city parks, golf courses, or recreational facilities would need majority approval of city electors. The same is true for designated historic properties and properties east of the Intracoastal Waterway. A YES vote adopts these changes to Article XIII. A NO vote means Article XIII is not amended in these ways.

The statement does not give a dollar estimate, and it does not say who would pay or save money or how certain that estimate is.
