Doral Council Sets Two Sessions for Aug. 12 Meeting
Doral City Council has formally scheduled two sessions for Wednesday, Aug. 12, 2026, giving residents the next identified date to watch for city decisions on government, taxes, development and public safety.
The meeting is set for 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. at the Doral Government Center, according to the City of Doral’s council-meeting listing and published notice.
The schedule is confirmed. The specific business before council is not yet fully confirmed: The accessible notice does not expose the complete Aug. 12 agenda. That means no particular tax rate, development approval, budget action or public-safety measure can be attributed to the meeting at this stage.
What the notice confirms
The city’s official notice identifies Aug. 12 as a Doral City Council meeting date and lists two session times, 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. The meeting location is the Doral Government Center.
Those details make the meeting a near-term public decision point for the city. The final agenda, once available, will determine which proposals or other matters are actually scheduled for council consideration and which actions, if any, can be taken.
For residents tracking city government, the important distinction is between a meeting that has been noticed and an action that has been approved. The current records establish the date, times and location, but they do not establish that council will adopt a tax rate, approve a development or take another specific action on Aug. 12.
Why the agenda matters
The meeting follows Doral’s proposed-millage discussion and other summer administrative actions, according to the approved city handoff. That places the Aug. 12 sessions in a period when budget and taxation issues may be especially relevant to local residents, although the packet does not confirm that any such item will appear on the final agenda.
Development and public-safety matters also could be important to the city’s policy agenda, but those subjects remain possibilities rather than announced Aug. 12 actions. The city’s final agenda is the document needed to identify the specific items, sponsors and requested decisions.
Residents and others following the meeting should check the City of Doral’s official council-meeting page for the completed agenda and any subsequent meeting records. The published notice alone is enough to confirm when and where the council is scheduled to meet, but not what it will ultimately decide.
Separate police chief action
Recent council records provide additional city-government context but do not establish a connection to the Aug. 12 meeting. A Doral City Council record shows approval of Matthew Castillo’s employment agreement as police chief, with the agreement effective June 15, 2026.
That police-chief action is a separate background item. The available sources do not say that Castillo’s employment agreement will be discussed during the Aug. 12 sessions, and the meeting notice does not provide enough agenda detail to make that claim.
The next confirmed step is the Aug. 12 meeting itself, with sessions scheduled at 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. The practical question for Doral will come with the final agenda: which city policies, spending decisions or administrative matters, if any, are placed before the council.
