Miami Lakes Neighborhood Improvement Committee (NIC) will celebrate July as Lake Quality Awareness Month to raise awareness about the quality of town lakes, and to recognize the important role of the community in maintaining the lakes.
Town residents do enjoy the 23 lakes, but it’s also important to protect them to serve the important function of absorbing rainfall and runoff to prevent flooding and providing homes for wildlife.
Because lake pollution is caused by so many different activities, a brochure has been developed with tips and information on the best management practices for lakes. The brochure and video is available on the NIC page of the Town’s website at www.miamilakes-fl.gov/nic.
The mission of the NIC is to recommend, promote and create projects and activities that will beautify and improve all neighborhoods in a collaborative and comprehensive manner. NIC also promotes efforts that encourage a physically active, sustainable, and engaged community.
