On May 16, 2019, the Town of Miami Lakes Neighborhood Improvement Committee hosted a community wide meeting and provided an update on our recently conducted lake quality study.

The meeting was extremely well attended by many residents representing different Homeowner Associations and Special Taxing Districts whom were interested in improving the quality of their respective lakes.

Throughout the meeting many of the attendees wanted to know how the Town and the respective HOA's could partner together in order to improve lake quality standards Town wide.

Many ideas were explored during the meeting which included; the adoption of best management practices, on going HOA lake quality meetings, lake quality improvement focused neighborhood matching grants, and ongoing lake quality monitoring.

I would like to have a discussion with my colleagues with regard to directing staff to coordinate with the Neighborhood Improvement Committee, how can we partner more closely with the different HOA's throughout our Town, and work towards adopting some of the suggestions discussed at the meeting with the goal of improving lake quality standards Town wide.
