Out to Bid: Five South Florida Hearings Set This Week

Five public hearings are on the docket across Broward and Palm Beach County this week, while two large multifamily tower permits move through Miami-Dade, giving builders and GCs tracking South Florida bid flow a full plate heading into November.

Why it matters

For construction companies watching what is about to clear approval, this is the recurring list: items set to be heard or considered this week, not yet decided. Pompano Beach’s city commission has two items on tonight’s agenda, followed by its Planning and Zoning Board tomorrow, 2026-10-28. West Palm Beach’s Historic Preservation Board is also scheduled to hear a matter today. Delray Beach’s city commission is set to consider two separate items at its 2026-11-02 meeting. Broward County’s commission has a matter on its 2026-11-10 agenda; the county has not yet posted the detailed agenda packet for that date, so the specific subject is not yet public and nothing beyond “a Broward County Commission agenda item” can be reported at this time.

The numbers

Behind this week’s hearings, Miami-Dade’s permit pipeline shows two large multifamily filings moving forward. A 544-unit, $150 million tower permit tied to the Edgewater-area site near 1700 NE 4th Ave and 1775 Biscayne Blvd lists Coastal Construction of Miami-Dade as general contractor; the project traces back to LCOR’s original Edgewater tower announcement, reported by Real Estate Business Online in 2023, which described the development as planned, not this specific permit. Separately, a 893-unit, $175.4 million permit at 721 NW 1st Ave was filed by Wg 700 North Miami LLC, also naming Coastal Construction of Miami-Dade as general contractor; this second filing has no public corroborating record beyond the permit itself, so no project name or additional detail beyond the address, unit count, value and contractor can be confirmed.

What’s next

Watch for Broward County to post its November 10 agenda packet, which should name the specific matter under leg:broward:1211. Delray Beach’s two November 2 items and Pompano Beach’s two-item slate this week are the nearer-term items to track for GCs assembling bid lists. This roundup runs weekly as part of the desk’s Out to Bid franchise.
