MESSAGE FROM MAYOR WAYNE M. MESSAM Hello Mirimarians! The City of Miramar is recovering from the impacts of Hurricane Irma and I hope you, your families and neighbors are doing well. We have a lot of work to do to get our City back to what we know as normal but in light of what others both in our State and in other locations have suffered, we must be grateful that the effects to our city were minimal and manageable. Our Emergency Operations Center was put to its first test in our new police headquarters and our Emergency Response professionals were well equipped and prepared. We had roadways cleared within a day to allow residents and businesses to maneuver through the streets. The City provided much needed food, water and other assistance to residents in need. City staff ensured intersections were safe and worked tirelessly to ensure all major damages were fixed that impacted public safety. The Police Department even purchased temporary street lights that worked while the existing lights were temporarily down. As we recover and rebuild the city of Miramar will work to complete the citywide hurricane debris hauling process. Miramar Social Services Department located at 6700 Miramar Parkway is available to assist residents complete claims to FEMA, SBA and state agencies for their damages and losses from Hurricane Irma. Please call (954) 889-2700 for more information.

It was amazing to see Miramar come together. It is moments like this that truly define the spirit of Community. When some didn't have power, we all pitched in to assist our fellow neighbor. With this kind of unity, there is no storm that could pull us apart. #MiramarTogether Yours in service,

Wayne M. Messam Mayor

MIRAMAR PD HANGING WITH 5-0 PROGRAM Miramar Police Department’s Hangin’ with 5-0 program is a six-week summer program that serves 80 students, ages 9-14, from local schools. It is offered to students who have been identified by school resource officers and other students, deemed positive role models, participate in the day-to-day activities and fieldtrips.

Students are required to read for a minimum of 20 minutes, at least twice a week. The books used, have been donated from Silver Lakes Elementary and the Miramar Regional Library.

MESSAGE FROM VICE-MAYOR WINSTON F. BARNES Dear Residents, I think it would only be accurate to say it will take some time yet for all of our residents, I am sure our residents will join me in congratulating staff on the outstanding job done in dealing with pre and post Hurricane Irma. I also take this opportunity to thank our residents for their patience and understanding at this time, and promise that we will all get through this in short order and restore our city to its pristine, beautiful self. Winston F. Barnes Vice-Mayor

MESSAGE FROM COMMISSIONER MAXWELL B. CHAMBERS Dear Residents, I hope everyone enjoyed their summer and spent some quality time with family and friends. In July, we had the grand opening of the new Miramar Amphitheater. It was a wonderful event and I want to thank everyone who came out to celebrate! Welcome to a new school year! Good luck to everyone. I am optimistic that you will have a successful and meaningful year of learning. I hope that everyone has recovered from the effects of Hurricane Irma. This was a destructive storm that will have a lasting effect on South Florida. Here at the City, we worked diligently to maintain our residents’ safety and well-being before, during and after the storm. We will continue our efforts to support the recovery process until things are restored to pre-Irma status. But remember, hurricane season lasts until November 30, so be sure to maintain your family’s plan and replenish necessary supplies you may have used during Irma. As always, I am here to support in any way that I can. Please feel free to call my office at 954-602-3157 if I can assist you. All the best, Maxwell B. Chambers Commissioner

MESSAGE FROM COMMISSIONER YVETTE COLBOURNE Hello Neighbors, Thank you again, for re-electing me to serve as your Miramar Commissioner. I am committed to continue to serve you with a vigorous and unwavering passion; and work to build One Miramar. To this effort, I am pleased to announce the Commission approved two major infrastructure projects totaling $47 Million dollars: Phase 3 Historic Miramar Infrastructure Improvement, to upgrade our drainage system and increasing flooding protection; and the renovation of the East Water Plant, to improve water quality. In June, I held my third annual Homeowner’s Association Roundtable. Participants gained insight in upcoming legislations, transportation improvement projects and the American Dream Mall planned near Miramar in Miami Dade County.

City of Miramar Commissioner 2300 Civic Center Place Miramar FL 33025 Office: 954-602-3143 Direct: 954-602-3131 Cellular: 954-560-5161 ycolbourne@miramarfl.gov www.Miramarfl.gov City of Miramar Help Line 954-602-HELP (4357)

Although Hurricane Irma has left our city with piles of debris, clean-up efforts are on the way and I am pleased to have provided hot meals, water, ice and comfort to many of our residents. My heart goes out to the residents of Houston, theorKeys, Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico and the Caribbean Countries who suffered the brunt of the Hurricanes. They have a long and arduous task ahead to recover. If I can be of assistance as you, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Your Commissioner,

Yvette Colbourne

MESSAGE FROM COMMISSIONER DARLINE B. RIGGS Dear Neighbor, I pray that you and your family remained safe and sound during Hurricane Irma. Hurricane Irma is evidence, why the City must continuously upgrade our infrastructure to ensure that we are safe during these types of storms. I would like to thank the men and women First Responders who worked tirelessly day in and day out to clear the roads, patrol the streets, and direct traffic while the power was out. Our First Responders invaluable service to the Miramar Community must be commended. Our mission to provide Miramar Families with resources is still on going. On July 29th we completed our 3rd Annual Back to school bookbag Give-away providing 1,000 students with a free bookbag. Additionally, on August 8th, we were also able to educate 2,000 families on Hands Only CPR in case of an emergency. We recently completed the budget process, and we would love to provide you with information on how some of your priorities were funded. If you have not had an opportunity to participate in one of our events there is still time. The Taste of Miramar will take place on November 4th at Miramar Town Center 2300 Civic Center Place from 6pm-9pm, and your presence would be greatly appreciated. As promised, we will continue to make your priorities our priority.� Sincerely, Commissioner Darline B. Riggs -
