The overall priority of the Community Image Advisory Board (CIAB) is to improve the condition of major corridors on which visitors and residents frequently travel. That includes the elimination of litter, proper and frequent maintenance of roadside foliage, replacement of unhealthy or damaged landscape, and other cosmetic upgrades that will improve Miami-Dade's image.

We are a sub-tropical, world-renowned community that's image precedes itself. When a visitor arrives in Miami, they expect beauty, serenity, luxury, and lush landscape. It is the express priority of the CIAB to make these images a reality along our most-traversed thoroughfares. The ways that these challenges will become accomplishments are by employing the following strategies:

• Litter reduction
• Landscape enhancements along gateways
• Restore tree canopy lost during hurricanes
• Improved maintenance along gateways
• Educate the public
