The City is embarking on a project to establish a vision for the west side of Collins Avenue. This area has businesses, parks, our top-rated K-8 public school, homes, and places of worship. However, this area is subject to considerable pressure for change.

The City is taking the lead to create a plan for this area. This plan will determine how development projects should be built in the future, including how tall buildings can be, how many homes can be in one place, keeping pedestrians safe, helping businesses thrive, and more. This vision plan will then become the official rules of our Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Code.

Focus Group Meetings

Public input will drive the creation of the vision plan. The first public outreach effort for this project will be the Focus Group meetings. This Focus Group is comprised of selected diverse stakeholders selected to represent the community and its vision for the west side of Collins Avenue. The Focus Group will provide their feedback directly at three meetings:

*Focus Group Meetings will take place in the First Floor Meeting Room at the Sunny Isles Beach Government Center, 18070 Collins Ave.

Members of the public are invited to attend these meetings and listen to the conversation. All attendees can submit responses via email and on printed response workbooks that mirror the workshop questions. Please stay tuned for upcoming public outreach events, including open houses, the project website, and surveys.

Members of the public will also have the opportunity to attend two open houses. Learn more about the project, and bring your ideas, suggestions and opinions to help shape the vision for the west side of Collins Avenue.
